okay but what if your grandparents died and left you with all of their fortune but the rest of your family was pissed to the point where you think they might kill you. so you marry mafia!price for protection and in exchange, he and his gang use some of your grandparents estates and businesses as a front for their shady operations?

Idk if passenger is really a thing on here or if Barry Sloane gets any love on this app BUT I literally adore that show already.

THIS POST WILL CONTAIN SPOILERS FOR PASSENGER IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN IT!

Passenger. Oh my fucking GOD. I've watched it so many times. Eddie Wells has altered my brain chemistry. The tears I shed over that sweet, beautiful man.

The way he didn't even remember doing it, but thought he must have done because he was told he did, because everyone else was so fucking sure he'd done it, he believed them. He was branded evil, a monster, a freak, and probably everything else under the sun for something he didn't even remember doing. The guilt he felt. The staggering loneliness in those five years. It isn't discussed but I bet you any money his family didn't go and visit him once. In five fucking years. (I do understand why, I totally understand Joanne, Katie and Lily's motivations but that doesn't make it hurt Eddie any less)

Then he got out, and all he wanted was to be a part of his own family again. He wanted to be a husband and father again. He missed his little girls, he missed his wife. He missed his home.

And what did he find, what was his open and welcoming heart met with? Coldness, tension, conflict. His family is everything to him, and they didn't want anything to do with him. He wanted to bring Joanne a sandwich to her work, just to be nice, and she asked when he was leaving. Later his eldest daughter nearly threw boiling coffee in his face, his little girl, ready to cause him serious harm. A few days after Lily asks if she can tell him a secret.

He looked so delighted to be trusted with one. To be let back in just a little by the baby of his family, his darling baby girl. And she tells him "I wish you were dead." The TEARS I SHED when he looked up at her and visibly broke. (Barry Sloane is fucking slept on as an actor i swear to god, he is literally incredible). You could see something die in his eyes. The resolve when he stood up.

He went to end his life in the icy lake. 'This is what monsters deserve'. And who saved his life? But Jim, his 'victim'. Jim pulled him from a terrible death.

Because he was owed an answer.

Because Eddie was the beast that attacked him for no reason. Because Eddie was evil and did an evil thing, and Jim wanted to know why.

And then it turned out he was fucking innocent.

The whole time, HE DIDN'T FUCKING DO IT. 5 years in prison, in a 6x8 shoebox. For a crime he didn't even commit.

If you've read this far, do you get why he's changed my brain chemistry forever? He was pushed away, shunned, got himself beaten up, nearly killed himself over something he didn't fucking do.

Eddie was broken by the people of Chadder Vale. Even his own family. And none of it was his fault. 5 years stolen from him, his relationship with his family stolen from him, his reputation stolen from him, his life stolen from him.

AND THEN- AND FUCKING THEN- BARRY TWEETS THIS.

THE FUCK YOU MEAN HE HAS HIS DAUGHTER'S BIRTHDAYS ON HIS WRISTS. THE FUCK YOU MEAN HE HAS HIS WIFE'S NAME ON HIS LEFT FOREARM. THE LAYERS OF TRAGEDY IN ONE CHARACTER IN A SIX EPISODE SERIES ON ITVX. I AM A MESS OVER THIS INFORMATION.

HIS FAMILY IS HIS WORLD. CAN YOU IMAGINE HOW MUCH IT WOULD'VE HURT HIM WHEN AFTER ALL THAT TIME THEY REJECTED HIM??

I'm sobbing all over again. Don't even get me started on the 'it felt real, no?' When Joanne rejected his affection so harshly, because my boy was fucking devastated. (Again. I can empathise with her, I do get it, I do understand her point of view. Eddie has just messed my brain up and I adore him.)

Sincerely, I love him. Thank you Barry for him. I'm going to sob in my corner and think about giving Eddie a hug until there's a season 2.

I am never going to be the same.

#I just started and finished the show today #I’m in Eddie brainrot #my head is so Full for this wet flannel of a man who deserved better #legit in my head writing an au or smth where he gets a pen pal during prison as part of a program #and all the angst of wanting what he lost (his family and his time with them) #and looking at what he has (someone who accepts him for ‘who he is’ (a ‘monster except not) but he doesn’t want them as much/ #still wants his family too #passenger #not writing #Eddie wells

Hear me out retired sheriff Price with retired bandit Y/n. In their prime they were enemies. Y/n would steal almost everything and anything no matter how useless it was. Then when the theft was reported Price as sheriff had to go after you. But he could never find you it was like you were always a step ahead of him, just barely escaping him. It irritated the living hell out of him but over time he comes to love your guys game of cat and mouse. But then one day when he was chasing another bandit and he got shot in the leg and the shoulder. He managed to get himself back to town to the doctor before passing out. When he wakes up he finds you, sitting at his bedside. He has half a mind to arrest you but he doesn’t. He curious why your here. You tell him that you heard that your favorite person was shot so you had to come see how he was doing. He laughed at that in disbelief, how could he be your favorite person when he was trying to throw you away for the crimes you committed. He held back his comment just as the doctor came in, giving him the hugest blow. His injuries were severe leaving him with a limp and lost of 60 percent of feeling in his arm. And this meant he would have to retire from being sheriff. He was a sheriff for 20 years he didn’t know what to do with himself. Once he was able to leave the doctors, he pronounced his deputy Simon as sheriff before leaving to go home. There he just spiraled, drinking himself asleep. After a two weeks of this you show up telling him this isn’t him. And you declare to make him better. You did, his life started to look up after a while with you there to encourage him to not let his limp and numbness in him arm to stop him from doing stuff, help him out around the house, cooking meals, etc. And over time through these things he fell in love with you and you fell in love with him. One night you confessed to him how you were feeling and he didn’t push you away like you thought he would. Instead he told you he shared the same feelings and embraced you. And this was the start of your long lasting love.
