listen there really was just something about how in the book, snow’s 3-page descent from hesitant lover boy to deluded psychopath happens entirely in his mind. lucy gray gives him no indication whatsoever that she suspects him, that she’s going to leave or betray him. he’s just sitting quietly in the cabin waiting for her to return when that seed of calculated suspicion, which he has needed to survive the capitol, takes a hold of him and chokes the life out of any goodness left inside him. it really drives home your terror as a reader that “oh my god did he kill her? did she escape? what happened to her? why would he even think that?” in a way that when the movie had to adjust for visualization it lost some of that holy shit this guy has lost it emphasis.

ASH ILY! What would 'for want of a neil' be about? (@stabbyfoxandrew) (you don't have to answer today i know wipw is your busy day)
OH AERIE YOU KNOW I'M WEAK AGAINST PEOPLE ASKING ME ABOUT MY DUMB THOUGHTS ILY2.
It is 90% pun at the moment but the main thought right now is an Andrew going through the events of the Trilogy kind knowing what happened the 1st time but for some reason....Neil isn't there.
He knows Neil is supposed to be there.
So it's Andrew chasing the ghost of Neil, trying to find him, did he dream him all up, was Neil Josten just a beautiful pipe dream? But he keeps finding evidence that Neil exists. It feels like Neil is smoke in his fingers, he can almost see him, catches wisps of his scent, but when he reaches out Neil isn't solid enough to grasp.
So he keeps searching and things change around him because Neil Josten isn't there. Some good and some bad but it's hard to feel good about any of it when Neil isn't there.
There's also the concerning gap in memory before he found himself looking down at some new recruit who wasn't the boy he wanted to burn the world down for.

there is something utterly heartbreaking about arcos hoping, almost praying, for the person that saved his family and home to be his son while being almost certain that he's not. he wants to believe so badly that his son had stopped destroying himself and harming everyone around him, that his child had been the one that matured and turned into a diligent and responsible person. but he knows it is not. he knows that the person he worries for and trusts without question is not the same one he raised. he knows his child and this person he's come to love as his own is not him.
he doesn't want to believe it because a part of him never stopped hoping lloyd would mature and turn into a decente person. but he cannot let his own selfishness keep stopping him from seeing the truth and recognize that the person that saved them all and that he's come to love so much is not his lloyd. because he's his own person and arcos loves him for who he is, has come to love him as his son and he doesn't deserve to be treated as just a replacement for the son arcos lost without realizing when or why.
and he can't bring himself to say any of this out loud so he just holds lloyd's hand and hopes that's enough to let him know how utterly loved he already is.
I want to tell you everything, Lloyd... But I have no clue as to how I should talk to or ask you about this. I already see you as my precious son. I am grateful for you.
Count Frontera raised his gaze to the sky once more. He was at a loss for words. The sky was incredibly dark and blue, filled with light from the moon and stars, clouds, and shooting stars. He sighed as his heart filled with uncertainty and regret. Unable to distract his mind he simply reached out and tightly grabbed Lloyd's hand. He hoped his unspoken feelings and thoughts would be conveyed to his son: Whatever you do, whatever you hide, you are my precious son that I will always be thankful for. In the cold and cozy night, they affectionately held each other's hand.
It was a stroll between a father and son or two people who hoped that would become true someday.

rin is very much the kind of guy who needs eye contact during sex. he holds your gaze while his teeth nip at you, while his tongue drags over the softness of your skin. he peers down at you as he pushes in, watching your eyes gloss over with unshed tears and sparkle with unspoken pleasure. and when you look away or close your eyes, he takes your chin between his fingers and tilts your head, guides your eyes so that they meet his.
“look at me, pretty. me and only me.”
