I’m working on a fic rn and it’s a crossover of two very obscure books and I’m like “wow I’m really doing something different here this is exciting” and wouldn’t you know it it’s about two characters having relationship problems

so i’m sure someone might have mentioned this before and i’ve just missed it, but. i just noticed something .
so of course we remember the prelude to the circus scene, where everyone in brian’s entourage (+ curt) form this beautiful royal-esque gaudy portrait (pictured below):
but upon reexamination of the orgy scene… (pictured below):
obviously it’s not the EXACT same furniture (and this shot is much less vibrantly lit) but. the red and gold furniture is similar enough to suggest to me that… that the orgy is still a performance in the same (or at least similar) way the circus prelude was.
which is why brian and curt leaving the performance space and going into a private, intimate moment seems illicit. at least in the circus, the press and the people get to take part in the ‘strange’ intimacy, and make a commodity of it. but in the orgy scene? when curt gets up and goes to another room, and brian follows??? they, essentially, are leaving the stage entirely. they exist as only they will ever know, and not even us - the secret 4th wall audience - get to experience that.

the thing is that it’s love and that it’s love in such a pure and unadulterated form that it gives you the strength to choose—for the first time—happiness for yourself instead of the path of least resistance, to admit to yourself that you want something other than what is destined for you. the thing is that it’s love and growing together. the thing is that it’s love and learning what love is when you’ve been hurt over and over in so many different ways your entire life. the thing is that it’s love that defies description, that cannot be shackled by a label, that will not be reduced to a little tag that is meaningful only to those who think that love can be defined in neat little boxes, because what does the box matter when you have love to focus on instead
the thing is that it’s just love, love that heals and grows and learns and teaches and sees you as you are, as you have always been, as you are meant to be, and says that it is okay to reach out and expect to be held in return, that says it is okay to be different from who you were told to be, that says there is nothing wrong with you or what you want or how long it takes for you to grow into yourself, that says that it will stay with you for as long as it takes and longer still because it wants to see you thrive, too, to thrive alongside you
the thing is that it’s just love! and there doesn’t need to be a qualifier for it!

GUYS. GUYS OKAY. I got offered to be a third in a couples relationship. Not ideal but like. I’ve been thinking about. I mean I wouldn’t be OPPOSED??? When I say third I don’t mean just a sex thing like it’s just actually hanging out. I’ve never even considered it. Would it be awkward???
