Some Scenes From a Marriage details that I love and they drive me crazy (not including ep 5 because it doesn't exist to me <3)

Jonathan never says "I love you" back to Mira when she says it. I searched through the script as well and nothing showed up, only him saying he loves Ava or repeating Mira's words when Mira says she fell in love with Poli.

2. In episode 1 we see Jonathan and Mira's nighttime routine. As part of that routine, Jonathan removes his watch

Then once we get to episode 2 and Mira tells him about the affair, and their "perfect" marriage image is shattered, there's this shot of them waking up in the morning and what stands out the most (to me) is Jonathan's watch that he never removed because of the hectic night before

3. Mira's brief smirk that she does almost every time she manipulates or sneakily mocks Jonathan, despite trying to appear upset. (almost feels like a duper's delight smile//The duper's delight is an emotional boost, or thrill, that some people get when they successfully cheat or deceive another person or organization.)

Like in this scene, where Mira reveals the affair and once she begins to describe Poli, she says "he's not an intellectual, not someone you'd think highly of..." and she fucking smirks (Jessica is an amazing actress)

It's the one in the middle and her expression changes so fast

Mira does it again in episode 2 when talking about how her affair started and instead of taking accountability, she's seemingly blaming Jonathan and making him feel guilty by saying how starting the affair with Poli was liberating... Notice how she always covers these brief little smirks with her fingers and a pout or shocked expression after?

4. This one is not a subtle detail at all. Still, I can't stop thinking about how they both change and mirror each other in different episodes, like how Jonathan couldn't let Mira go in episode 2. Then once Jonathan was finally over her, Mira couldn't let him go in episode 4.

5. The green couch

The show opens with them sitting on this green couch, being interviewed for having a strong monogamous relationship that the student can use for her research. It all starts off so well, and they're sitting on that green couch.

In episode 3, when Jonathan has lived without Mira in the house for a while, he changes the place of the green couch and gets a grey IKEA sofa that's comfortable to sit on. Mira sees it and immediately mocks it, asking why Jonathan didn't ask her for help to pick a couch, completely insensitive to the fact that Jonathan did something for himself. Also, it doesn't go unnoticed that the green couch is on the opposite of the comfy grey sofa

Once again we see that couch in episode 4, when they're going through the furniture because of their divorce settlement and Jonathan's move.

They have a tiny conflict about who gets the green couch in the settlement, even though in the previous episode Mira went on to explain how getting attached to furniture fucks up things for everyone and she doesn't care about that or where she lives etc

Then they fuck on the couch, which Jonathan claims he did to prove to himself he no longer cared about Mira like that.

This green couch really is a symbol of their marriage and when combined with the IKEA couch, it's like they both symbolised their personalities.

6. Speaking of differences and opposites...

Obviously, people in marriages and relationships can have different things, but it stuck out to me that they had completely different toothbrushes. The toothbrushing scene felt really long as well, and I can't help but feel that the differences were intentional.

This shot where Mira is crying and Jonathan comforts her, although she has hurt him.

The bedside light is turned on on Jonathan's side but not on Mira's side and I love the light and dark, this imbalance energy it gives off. Not only that but how one door is open and the other is closed.

Jonathan drinks white wine while Mira has a glass of red wine

Not only that, but Jonathan is the only one with white wine. Everyone else has red wine and Kate and Peter end up betraying Jonathan too by taking Mira's side and keeping the truth about Mira's cheating from their "friend" Jonathan

They've been together for 12 years and appear as such a good strong couple, yet when asked about their pronouns for the interview, Jonathan can answer immediately but Mira seems confused and struggles to answer.

Like what do they talk about?? A few minutes later she makes jokes about how Jonathan loves to talk about his little theories, as if she doesn't care to listen to him ever. Sure, you could argue her mind was elsewhere but still. It's like they're on completely different pages

7. When Mira is talking about how she used to have power over Ackerman and other people when she was "young" and "desirous" and being able to steer them in whatever direction she wanted, the camera focuses on Jonathan instead of her. It's so good because she says all that while it finally clicks in Jonathan's head that he doesn't feel anything anymore

She even seems proud that she's been able to manipulate people ???

8. When they cheer, Mira cheers with a wine glass, brings it near her mouth as if to take a sip but then takes a sip of water, all before revealing the pregnancy later in that episode. No one noticed.

Might do a part 2 because this show lives in my head rent-free.

Moving

Jonathan Levi x gn!reader

Genre: angst, comfort

Summary: Jonathan brings up moving to a smaller house. Eva doesn't like it at all, and for you it hits close to home.

Warnings: references to divorce.

Word count: 932

A/N: this is genuinely just me processing my own trauma. Made a fic of it, have fun!

Jonathan and you were at your apartment, drinking in your kitchen. Eva was with Mira for the weekend, so you decided to talk about the events of a few days past.

It was a regular Tuesday, really. Jonathan invited you over for lunch, an invitation you happily took on, being his best friend and the godparent of his daughter. You've always been close, since you met at college. Your bond was beyond anything - always there for each other, always the first to know and last to leave. The best company.

When Eva was born, Jonathan and Mira decided to make you her godparent, "officiating your third wheeling", as you sometimes joked. It had a seed of truth, since you were practically Eva's third parent. It was a good position to be in, as it made you "the cool one".

So that Tuesday, the three of you sat at the table for lunch, when Jonathan brought up the fact he's been looking at houses. Smaller ones. To move into.

Eva didn't take lightly to that. Once she understood what it meant, leaving her home, she voiced her disagreement by bursting into tears. The little girl was screaming that she doesn't want to leave, and pushed Jonathan away when he tried to hug her. Eventually she ran to her room and slammed the door.

Jonathan was rather shocked, he didn't imagine it would go this way. "She's always so excited when she sleeps away from home, I thought she'd be happy! Obviously we're not going to move right now, it was just an option. I thought she doesn't really like it here anymore either." He told you. "I should go to her."

You put your hand on his shoulder for him to stay. "Give her a moment. I'll go."

A few minutes later, you knocked on her door. She told you to leave, but let you in after some conversation.

Eva let you sit on her bed after her crying died down.

"No one is going anywhere, munchkin. This is your house, and it's staying that way. You're not moving anywhere. It's okay." You told her.

"Bu - but dad said we might live somewhere else! I don't wanna go! I don't wanna go!!!" The little girl pleaded, tears filling her eyes again. She burrowed into you and you held her, petting her hair. "Shhhh... It's not happening. Everything's okay. Everything's okay."

--------------------

Jonathan leaned on the counter, swirling the wine in his glass. "I really don't understand though," he said, "she's not happy there. We both sleep in what used to be my study. The top floor is basically just storage, and she won't go there on her own. It's too big!"

"You're right. It really is too big. But so is this situation." You were a child of divorced parents, and remembered what it was like when one of them moved out.

"It's not actually about the house, Jonathan. It's about the routine, about the familiarity. It's what she knows. And kids are naturally sentimental. They're connected to their things, especially in times of crisis." You commented and took a sip from your own glass.

"Tell me more?" He inquired. "I want to understand."

You sighed. It wasn't the easiest of topics for you. "She wants things as similar to how they were, Jon. She used to have a family until a few months ago."

Jonathan looked offended. "She has a family. We didn't evaporate the second Mira left."

"I didn't mean it like that, I'm sorry." You took a deep breath. "She's five, man. I was her age when my folks spilt. She feels like she doesn't have a family anymore. It doesn't matter matter how many inclusive family dynamics books you read to her, it's still a fucking earthquake. Her world doesn't look like it used to, and it never will."

Jonathan noticed your voice cracking slightly and set his wine down on the counter as he moved closer to you.

"Trust me, there's NOTHING she wants more right now than to have things back how they were. For years after they separated, I still tried to hug both my parents at once. Just grabbed them and smushed them together. Made them absolutely miserable. Eva knows, Jon. She knows she'll never get a family group hug from both her parents, ever again. Imagine that for a child, eh?"

Your throat was already closing when you said: "She wants to stay in that house because the thing she wants most in the world is for Mira to walk back through that door!" You sobbed.

"Hey, hey, it's okay," Jonathan said, taking away your glass and putting his hand on your arm.

"I'm sorry," you chocked out. "Please don't hug me."

"Okay, alright," he said in a calming, quiet voice. "I'm not going to if you don't want to. Could you just look at me please?"

You signed for him to wait while you steadied yourself, and then looked into his eyes.

"I am not your father." He said. "And you're not my kid. You're a fully grown adult, with a say in this situation. You are not five again. What you say matters. I am not your father, and I'm listening to you."

That's what it took for you to dissolve in tears. He opened his arms and you fell into them, sobbing into his shoulder while he rubbed your back.

"It's okay," he reassured. "Crying doesn't make you any lesser. You're okay."

"I love you, Jonathan." You mumbled into him after a few minutes.

He squeezed you harder.

"I love you too."

Just tagging some mutuals, I'm sorry if you're not interested in scenes from a marriage, feel free to ignore:

RAAAAHHH THESE ARE SO GOOD

How different Oscar Isaac Characters hold you while you’re riding NSFW

Just had a few thoughts

Steven:

Steven is a tits guy. Guy or girl he’s sitting up so his face is buried in your chest using both hands to push your pecks/breasts closer to his face. He’s messy. Spit is everywhere and you’re both going to need a bath later. You will have to do most of the work because this man is too lost in the sauce to do anything other than mouth at your chest and tell you how pretty he thinks you are.

Jake:

He differentiates between two options, both hands on your hips or one hand on your hip and the other gripping your neck. He sits up so he can stare at all your little expressions. He likes to have leverage so he can hit that spot that makes your eyes flutter.

Marc:

If you two are testing the waters or just not emotionally intimate he definitely has both hands on your thighs while he’s laying down. Once he’s comfortable however…. He’s trying to be as close as possible. One arm hooking under yours so he can grip your shoulder and the other on your thigh. He’s honestly just taking whatever skin he can reach.

Blue:

Orderly!Blue lives to see you ride. Club Owner!Blue however needs a lot of convincing. They both gravitate towards whatever soft bit of skin they can reach though. They grip onto the soft skin on your neck, hips, thighs, they especially love the meaty bit between the neck and the shoulder. He needs to sink his teeth into it.

Anselm:

He’s a lot like Blue and Marc in the way that he will hold onto any skin he can reach. He’s not as desperate though. He’s patient. He likes to sit against the headboard and just watch. Caressing your body oh so gently. That is until you start slowing down. Then he grips the meat of your hips telling you that you can do better than that. Oxygen tank is nearby.

Cecil Dennis:

We all love him. We’ve all come to accept that he isn’t the best at the whole ‘god in bed’ thing but I’ll be damned if he can’t make it up with desperation. He has one hand behind him and the other on your chest. Looking up at you and hoping you like it. He ruts into as fast as he can until you tell him to slow down. He cries if your pace is too slow for him.

I wish they had more colors

Johnathan Levy:

He does his best to be calm and collected. He starts with just two hands lightly holding onto your hips but he can’t keep it up for long. It starts with him sitting up planting his feet to rock into you. Eventually devolves into him holding you so he can just move your hips into a slow grind before he begins slamming his hips into yours. Similar to Anselm he keeps his inhaler nearby because our man has asthma.

WHAT DID U EXPECT?? literally if u dont like ppl drawing stick figures, dont even bother clicking on the video bc u look dumb making ACCOUNTS on youtube, twitter, tumblr, reddit, all this shit js to prove a shitty ass point on how "stick figure isnt art" which is literally not helping considering they literally r MAKING SMTH NEW which WOULD b art. get ur shit? tf? educate urselves before making this shit. also this isnt helping ur case telling ppl to jump for drawing stick figures. thats literally the dumbest reason to. harass me all yall want idgaf, espically since im not even in the community but this harassment to this community is so laughable and dumb and it NEEDS to stop. /srs
