#and henrik just keeps insisting ''i did not know john gaskell''

[lonelier-version-of-you]

Perhaps fittingly for the day after Holby finally, FINALLY mentioned John for the first time in over 2 and (nearly) a half years, I’ve just found, thanks to my YouTube recommendations, another song that absolutely breaks my heart with Johnrik feelings: “Silhouette” by Aquilo.

“Let’s go out in flames so everyone knows who we are ‘Cause these city walls never knew that we’d make it this far We’ve become echoes, but echoes that faded away So let’s dance like two shadows burning out our glory days

Devil’s on your shoulder Strangers in your head As if you don’t remember As if you can forget

It’s only been a moment It’s only been a lifetime But tonight, you’re a stranger Some silhouette”

#holby city spoilers #it says something about the state of continuity on this show when ''john gaskell was mentioned'' counts as a spoiler #really though this is a beautiful song you should listen to it #it's the last few lines of the chorus that really get me #''it's only been a moment / it's only been a lifetime / but tonight you're a stranger / some silhouette'' #makes me think of that scene in 'one of us' #where guy self is saying henrik must have known john very well since they were friends for decades #and henrik just keeps insisting ''i did not know john gaskell'' #goddd..... #my heart
