#day four 2024

[somedayillbepeterpan]

My favourite show quote are these two incomplete sentences that Pen and Colin say to each other on their road to crossing the friends to lovers bridge.

The whole weight of this tiny scene is monumental. Individually, the words are common. Words that we often say to each other. If we change the emphasis of the words, it can even change the whole meaning of the sentence completely.

The words unsaid and the words they could've said. The jump after this scene is so quick and then we're offered this beautifully intense scene of Pen and Colin basically drinking each other, lost in their feelings for the very first time.

Nicola and Luke's perfect delivery of these two lines makes the carriage scene such a standout among any intimacy scene in the show. Added to the insanity that this is the first season that ended their halfway mark with such a visceral scene makes it so iconic. I've looked at each 4th episode of the 3 seasons and this is the only season that uses its trope perfectly as a cliffhanger. It is also the only ep 4 closing scene where it is only the main couple in the shot (S1 was the duel so it was the boys + Daphne, S2 was the proposal so it was the ladies + Anthony).

On the same vein, my favourite mirror (-ing) scene is the also the above in which both Pen and Colin display the same look of confusion as they each try to figure out what the other is actually saying. I know Colin had that beautiful speech but this scene-- this one right here is when Pen starts to understand that Colin is genuinely pouring his heart to her and that his words are true. When Pen starts to let the walls down she has built around her feelings for Colin for such a long time.

This is the first moment of their journey where they are parallel to each other (we all know that several times in their journey, one of them is either ahead or behind). Because Pen obviously isn't thinking about LW at this moment in time. All she knew was that this man she's been in love with for forever is kneeling before her, baring his heart out, asking her to take care of it. Colin is obviously not thinking of what it would do to him if Pen doesn't reciprocate his feelings. All he knew at this point in time is that his heart called her name. Fervently, assuredly, and very, very loudly (so much so that he jumped from confession to proposal very quickly).

Such a tiny scene. Such a tiny scene and yet everything that follows hinges on it. Such simple lines. Such a tiny step. Such tiny inflections. Such tiny blinks and yet, we're locked in that carriage with them (and we have been locked ever since).

Absolutely incredible performances from Nic and Luke.

I'll tell you that the carriage scene changed my life and the way I see intimacy scenes on screen. I bet there wouldn't be anything like this in my lifetime for a very long time but I will always look for it.

To Choose Her

---

Alright, sleepy head! Rise and shine-”

Halting in her step, Mor’s speech cut off abruptly when she was met with a sight that was distinctly not Cassian buried under the blankets in deep sleep.

Instead of wings, there was long, dark blonde hair fanned out on the pillows, a thin arm that hugged a pillow this figure now rested her head on, as if she’d turned to grasp onto it whenever her bedmate had risen. Her breaths came slowly, deeply, a sign of an easy sleep.

She was beautiful in the sunlight, which caught on the freckles sprinkled across her skin. Not even Mor could deny it.

But what was most striking, what caused her jaw to drop and any and all words to flee from her mind, was the fact that, underneath the sheet that had been drawn up to her shoulder, Nesta Archeron was decidedly bare in Cassian’s bed.

A shocked sound choked past her lips, and her eyes lifted, roving over the rest of the room until she met the bright, gold-flecked ones of her initial target.

Cassian stood in front of his dresser, his back facing her, yet had turned his head on her arrival. Seemingly frozen in the middle of buttoning one of the sleeves of the cotton shirt he’d donned – distinctly not his usual training leathers – he was looking at her with an expression Mor didn’t think she’d ever been on the receiving end of.

There was no kindness there, no warmth that he usually greeted her with. Instead, there was a fierce irritation, a protectiveness, even. The message was clear even to her basest of fae instincts.

A warning.
