they are so domestic! they are besties! hawk and beej sitting way closer than necessary! margaret commandeering bj’s hands for yarn the way hawk has in many other scenes! the found familyness! aaaah i love them!
me: yes eleven seasons to depict a three-year war could be considered overlong and there’s an argument to be made about the exhaustion felt in the later seasons, especially as the messaging became blurrier and the actors visibly aged into their late 40s, but there’s a lot to take from the structure about the repetitive nature of war, trauma, and insulated environments, the way it wears down everyone until even the most idealistic don’t know how to interact with good and bad and in/sanity anymore, and there’s an inherent tragedy to never letting them leave, until the very idea that there might be an end is itself a form of horror, an exhalation, or some kind of death-
me: only eleven seasons of hawkeye? my good friend hawkeye? my buddy hawkeye whom we love to see? my baby boy hawkeye who is experiencing the horrors? why not fifteen twenty hundred seasons of hawkeye? why not ageless hawkeye who is forever trapped in the repetition and never grows older and grows older and older at the same time? more hawkeye stuck forever? I wanna see hawkeye? no more hawkeye? maybe i’ll just rewatch season one
the worst part about being into an 11 season episodic show is that there are inevitably a few episodes here and there that don’t quite fit the rest characterization-wise, and then people base their characterizations on those episodes
far from these nonsense bars and their nowhere music
it's making me sick and i know it's making you sick
there's nothing there, it's like eating air
it's like drinking gin with nothing else in
and that doesn't hold me together
