Seven Sentence Sunday

Thank you for the tag most lovely @heartstringsduet ❤️

She’s always done what she likes, which usually aligns with what Gabriel likes, apart from the odd occasion. The time she let Tía Lucy host a séance in the living room, and didn’t mention it, springs to mind. Gabriel rolls in, switches on the lights while saying a loud, “What in the name of hell?!” and a circle of ten people fling into the air screaming like a demon has been summoned from the hallway.

Carlos thinks his father would have a lot to say, but he doesn’t have the energy to list things off, or make the argument himself. So, he mumbles, “Well, I appreciate it,” and she kisses his cheek.

They sit down, Andrea occupying the chair next to Carlos’. She stares at TK and pushes her wooden Rosary beads between her thumb and forefinger, meditating with the Mysteries.

Reading your season 3 missing moments has me thinking a lot about that ice storm arc and in doing that last night, I got to thinking about Gwyn during that time. I think the show wants us to believe that she's a really good mother, and I'll accept that for the most part, but it often does such a bad job of showing it. I'm not sure if you're going to cover it or get into detail about the amount of time that's passing (a dangerous thing to attempt with this show, I know) but how long are we supposed to think it took her to come see TK after his coma? I know she has baby Jonah and everything, but it really seems like she could have managed to get there a lot sooner, right? She doesn't show up until the push in ceremony when the firehouse renovations are complete. I feel like the quickest that could have gotten done would have been maybe 6-8 weeks (and probably a lot longer in real life). And they didn't even start work on it until after TK was out of the hospital and walking around because TK is there on the day when the firehouse is supposed to be demolished! So does that mean Gwyn took a good 2 months to come visit her son who almost died? Or are we supposed to believe that the firehouse renovations were completed in a couple weeks? Or, third option, are we just not supposed to think about it this hard? 😂

I think that was probably more about when/for how long they could get Lisa Edelstein than anything else 😂 But yeah you're right, it does end up looking like Gwyn didn't come visit her kid who almost died for like at least a month. I guess it's plausible that the excuse is she had a baby but my parents put me on a plane at like 6 weeks old lol there's no law against young babies on planes. There is a lot of telling-not-showing when it comes to Gwyn. Partly its the nature of having limited time with a famous guest actor but the narrative definitely does a lot of informing us that Gwyn is an amazing mother but not a lot of us actually seeing it.

Pt. 6 to tarlos song headcannon thing (god still need a name for this)

This is an odd one. Hear me out.

Up by Olly Murs (ft. Demi Levato) has an essence to early season 3 tarlos which I can’t get out of my head.

“I never meant to break your heart, And I won't let this plane go down, I never meant to make you cry, I'll do what it takes to make this fly”

This verse is the Epitome of what TK was talking and feeling about with his mum in his little coma dream. He freaked, panicked and ran. He didn’t want to hurt Carlos but once he did it was too late. And plus I’m pretty sure this is the first time he had made Carlos cry. (He probably/definitely cried at the breakup but we never saw that). He had seen Carlos cry before but knowing his coma was causing it defo made it hurt more.

He woke up from his coma to see if Carlos would take him back. He was doing what he could for Carlos, to not lose Carlos.

And it can work backwards. Carlos didn’t have come, or stay. They weren’t together. TK broke up with him. And now his ex is in coma, and he chose to stay. Didn’t leave his side till he woke up. Saying what he needed to say, doing what he needed to, in hopes to saves them.

“Oh, you gotta hold on, Hold on to what you're feeling, That feeling is the best thing, The best thing, alright, I'm gonna place my bet on us, I know this love is heading, In the same direction, That's up,”

TK still loved Carlos. Throughout those six months (I think it was six) when they weren’t together, he still loved him. Still hadn’t told Nancy about the breakup, well what happened, and was glad the person by him the entire time was him.

The relationship was stronger and went up (see what I did) after this. They both still loved each other, and didn’t let them go to waste.

God i feel like I’ve just write an essay.
