maybe the real treasure was the psychosexual obsession with a cw actor we developed along the way

in s3ep2, eleanor tells mrs. hudson she doesnt come from privilege, which mrs. hudson immediately denies. but i think its SOOO telling of eleanor's character! she sees herself as a woman in a world full of men, which she is, but she completely ignores the class and racial divides she obviously benefits from. she claims she has no privilege to mrs. hudson, who comes from no money and works as a chambermaid to woodes rodgers, leaving behind her beloved children to make sure eleanor has clean clothes and to empty her chamberpot. eleanor had power on nassau, power she wielded for her own benefit and to the severe detriment of others. obviously she experienced misogyny, but she was never forced into poverty, never forced into sex work, never forced into service of any kind, because her father was wealthy and she was born into a higher class. her experiences of misogyny and oppression are vastly different than mrs. hudson's. but for her to tell a chambermaid she experienced no privilege? it's laughably untrue. eleanor oversaw and directly profitted from the trade of hundreds if not thousands of slaves on nassau, was raised by "chattel property of the guthrie estate" mr. scott, who is never even given a name in his own tongue (on screen, at least), never showed kindness to anyone but those who put money in her pocket because she was born with that money and that trade empire already in the guthrie name. she had to fight to get it, and fight she did, but the fact that those things were so close to her reach just by virtue of the circumstances of her birth? that's privilege, whether or not she sees it that way

Do you think Maria's kids would use Uncle or Tio for Joel? Given their casting I think the Millers are meant to be Spanish in decent (Pedro's Chilean but Gabriel's Mexican I think?) so I'm curious as to what they'd go with culturally. Sarah said Uncle though.
i think they’d use both! at least that’s what i’ve personally imagined and written in some of my fics—i will say tho, i’m not bilingual nor do i speak spanish, so if someone with more cultural reference and authority for this would like to chime in, i’d take their word over mine!
i just personally think that in jackson, maria and the community would be encouraging the kids to learn as much as they can and pickup as many skills as they can, including speaking multiple languages. i think it’d be so so so cool for the school to have like little languages classes where jackson community members that speak something other than english teach classes to whoever wants to learn, from kids to adults
so from this line of thought, it’s my personal little headcanon that baby miller LOVES learning languages, loves listening and babbling and eventually saying new words. so maria and tommy and joel and ellie take turns taking ‘em to all the language classes they can, pretty much like 4 nights a week for years and years. by the time baby miller is five, they speak an impressive a bit english, spanish, french, portuguese, and tagalog. before they know it, they’ve unintentionally raised a little polygot!!!
so they’re really not just limited to using uncle and tío, but also calling maria and tommy and joel and ellie endearments and their family titles in every language they know

Ann will graciously pay for his meal and dessert(s) today since it is his special day. A nice steak and for dessert, cake and his favorite filling on a delicious crêpe with a big smile as she hands them over, not having the time to get him anything more meaningful. "Happy birthday, Saihara-kun!~"
{ Shuichi Birthday!! 🎉}
Shuichi was already more than grateful for the delicious steak she treated him to at the restaurant they ate at. And then as she hands him the cake and the crepe, a chocolate one it was some of his favorite fillings, his smile brightens, beaming at her! "Th-Thank you so much, Takamaki-san! You're so kind to want to treat to me so much good stuff...I really appreciate it! The steak was so good... and I can't wait to enjoy this cake later... and this crepe, right now!"
He chuckles, before taking a big bite into it, humming at how delicious the crepe was as always. "You're the best.. I'm having so much fun today with you. I'm so happy you were able to spend time with me. Ah, I know you bought it for me, but maybe later, we can find a nice spot to enjoy this cake together? You treated me so much today, I feel it's only fair we can enjoy this cake together...!"
