collab with fic by kawwwaritai
+ a bonus 4th illustration within the fic !
“Hell, yeah, I’d wanna be me too!” He yells to the nearest bystander who, oh, shit, happens to be that kid.
The kid who, he notices way too late, is already looking upset, and now that Yuri’s gloated in his face, is starting to cry. His stomach lurches. And oh, shit, his English sucks, but he’s pretty sure the attendant is admitting to Otabek that the kid had been trying for the bear all day.
Main thing that I loved so much was how even though they were in the same space they were still spatially separated by their environment. It being a simple stair railing at the carousel, or at the end, while waiting for his uber, when they were on the same street but different parcel, separated by this thin line. In a sense it's bit like the screen that separated them all those years was still there. The distance between the two is masterfully represented in the movie like ugh cinema.
Also all the lovers always surrounding them in the background...
I feel like Nora/Nayoung (just putting the / makes me think of the separation between her and her old self lol) chose with her mind and not her heart but that's just me. Like she knew what Nayoung wanted but as Nora now she chose the "wiser" solution. With a little chance Arthur dword young and she get the best of both worlds for Nora and Nayoung. I also don't believe that this situation healed her inner child. The wound will always be open because the "what if" are a curse that the human self must live along...
I will give Arthur his flowers because third wheeling while your wife is having a moment with her first love + comforting when you are a second choice lol give him his tens (I was rooting against him mind you). Learning your lover's language to understand her (even though I feel like it was his insecurities from being a short king who made him do this). Regardless he is here when he know that he is second after her work and ambitions. Sister know that she has to put herself first.
Also I had this picture in mind when I saw the two of them in bed
I hope in their next lives they get together because being in a situationship for 8000 years is enough !
