Logically I know that the character Justin does at the beginning of each episode is not going to be relevant to the steeplechase overall plot….. however
I grew up hearing an eclectic mix of music. A song I loved growing up made me think:
If The Bear could have been a musical for one single moment, Carmen in the walk-in embodies this. PLEASE NOTE: It’s not just the lyrics- it’s the guitar solo. Listen to it. That solo sounds like Carmy to me.
For your listening pleasure “I’m So Afraid” by Lindsey Buckingham (Fleetwood Mac)

Lyrics:
I been alone
All the years
So many ways to count the tears
I never change
I never will
I'm so afraid the way I feel
Days when the rain and the sun are gone
Black as night
Agony's torn at my heart too long
So afraid
Slip and I fall and I die
I been alone
Always down
No one cared to stay around
I never change
I never will
I'm so afraid the way I feel
Days when the rain and the sun are gone
Black as night
Agony's torn at my heart too long
So afraid
Slip and I fall and I die
How I feel
Days when the rain and the sun are gone
Black as night
Agony's torn at my heart too long
So afraid
Slip and I fall and I die
Again, listen to the guitar solo all the way through. I beg you.
I just had a panic attack (just dealing with some mental health things lately re: childhood stuff) so if anyone could send to my ask box some pet pictures or stuff about your OCs or just, anything as a distraction I would greatly appreciate it <3 gonna sleep a bit because I’m exhausted now but aaa
k but there is an advantage to re-doing the slow walk all the way down for the new story. i forgot a crucial aspect of doing this the first time: the sense of dread.
The truth is it cost me so much to protect the little girl I was, now I can’t bear to give her away to a man for him to use and tear to pieces. Because I’m not sure she’d be able to pull herself back together again.
