if i was making scandal s4 i'd have a psychological horror cyrus subplot where he's periodically haunted by a rotting, zombie-fied ghost version of james every time he continues to support the administration in his usual immoral ways, both serving as a representation of his guilt over his loss, and the constant reinforcing of his sunk-cost fallacy way of coping. but because this wasn't relevant to olivia's journey they didn't include it.
I'm on season 4 of Scandal and I am STUCK TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHICH PART OF THE DAMN TRIANGLE I LIKE MOST...
IS IT OLIVIA AND FITZ OR OLIVIA AND JAKE-
Like- I hate Fitz. Get your fucking marriage together, check on your damn wife-
Jake- you did some fucked up shit too- I won't forgive you for the way you fucked up Cyrus's life but you're also not already married... that we know of at least.
Quinn... we don't talk about her. Fuck her. Not literally. (I'm looking at you Charlie)
Huck needs all the hugs in the world and a protection squad
Still dunno how to feel about papa and mama Pope (Though in the episode I'm like- in the middle of watching- papa Pope almost made me cry lol)
Cyrus... you fucked up too but HUGS! YOU NEED THEM.
Harrison... o7 Gladiators in suits
Abby is cool, she needs hugs too
B613 is scary
Mellie needs therapy and all the hugs and support
Fitz's dad better be rotting in the worst parts of Hell
no bc at least the deaths that happen on greys shonda makes it make sense in one way or another im literally not comprehending or accepting quinn’s rn… literally in the middle of the last season?? so so out of the blue?? idk even tho i “saw” it happen im holding onto hope that she’s still alive w baby robin someway somehow…. like olivia can’t get my love back after the plane but this just seems too impossible for her to do
currently fixating on how quickly Rhaenyra and Mysaria jumped apart when they got interrupted. not only because it triggered very familiar memories for ME, but also for the headcanon (shared by Olivia Cooke) that Alicent's mother once caught her with Rhaenyra like that. would not have been fun for our queen to feel that panic again
