“Your heart beats in my ribs and mine in yours, and both in God’s… The divine magnet is in you, and my magnet responds.”

— Moby-Dick author Herman Melville’s little-known, passionate, beautiful, heartbreaking love letters to his literary hero and neighbor Nathaniel Hawthorne.

[She] stares at him and something seems to solidify in the air, in the beams of their eyes, flowing from her to him and back again, creating an almost tangible channel between them. [She] wouldn’t be surprised if others in the room were able to see it: it would be coloured red, or blue, or fluctuating between the two, towards purple, and it would crackle audibly. It would be impossible to cross the room at this moment without getting caught by it: the channel or connection between them would repel others from it. It occupies a space of its own.

i don’t play about jacob anderson’s brilliance as an actor and performer. the confession scene in iwtv’s first ep ALONE should have gotten jacob an instant spot on every award show’s best actor nom list. he learned his tap dance performance over zoom and they had to send the professional tap dancing stunt doubles home because he was just that good. so many people from nola were shocked at the fact that he’s british and could do such a convincing new orleans accent to the point that they thought he was actually from there. he’s been carrying this show on his back and elevated his performance even more (crazy!!!) for season 2 since emotions were higher for his character, and he cemented himself as a generational talent for new viewers. this is simply the type of talent that not even the most prestigious award show could measure
