Adam!!

oh my HEART CHARACTER? MY BOY? yes <3

heads up: i went off

first impression

holy shit!!! actual prologue scene!!!! look at him being a bastard!! this is very cool i love this.

classic beast. look at him being all beasty. does he have a name? nope. no name. weird! anyway look at him! a beast!

oh now he’s a man! i ain’t never seen that man before in my life!!!!

i literally did not know who dan stevens was so i was genuinely like WHO is this man. but i thought it was amazing and i had no qualms with the design of the beast! i thought it was awesome and i was endeared by him. NOT TO MENTION?? EVERMORE?? gosh i Loved that they gave him his own song. it’s what he deserved. i was just so happy with how much more depth they gave him. belle too! which i forgot to talk about in her post! but anyway i just loved how much more human he was, even as a beast. there was so much more to his past and who he was and who he is and i was so compelled by him. and i thought his slow transition from grumbly beast to kind man in disguise was so very good. it just felt so natural.

impression now

all of that, but intensified sjdksj. he’s my heart character. i want to know everything about him, and i DO know everything about him! his tragedy and his growth and his struggles and his pain and his melted heart. the way he’s a damsel in distress. the way he’s been trapped in that tower for so long even before he was cursed. i just think he’s so wonderful and sad and his heart is so big!! he loves so deeply. he FEELS so deeply. all of his emotions are buried but so intense. he hates strongly and he loves intensely and when he’s sad it practically causes a storm. it’s hard for him to express his feelings but his heart is just so colorful and beautiful and he’s learning. he has capacity to change and he wants to break out of who he was. and it’s just such an amazing thing to see and grapple with!

favorite moment

gah!!!!! i think there are two that always get me. this one in the gif above is so cute too. BUT! when he laughs in the snowball fight scene. i think i gain 5 years of life every time i watch it. at this point i will live forever. it’s just like!!!!!!!!! that’s the first time he’s genuinely laughed!!!! in!!!! YEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! like when’s the last time he experienced pure joy like that? just fun, light joy! it warms my heart to NO end.

(oh my gosh!!!!!!!!!!!!)

next one is his tiny lil smile when belle is feeling his human face for the first time. like it just… i mean that whole scene… hfhfhgkglghfhjf…. but GOODNESS.

i…. uhhhhhhhh……. the love in his eyes… he’s just…. they’re just…… oh man lydia.exe has stopped working.

idea for a story

hmmm!! i feel like i have explored a lot of his life. but, sometimes i think about him facing his past in a very tangible way. like going to his father’s old study that he kept locked after he died. or even his mother’s bedroom that also remained abandoned since her passing. and maybe belle is with him or maybe he goes by himself. but i think a big part of his healing and growth is taking hold of his shadows. or at least, casting some light on them! so something in that realm.

unpopular opinion

he deserves a name. name him literally whatever you want, but just calling him “the prince” or still BEAST after the curse is lifted is just disrespectful. he was born a human, and he lived as a human to young adulthood before anything happened, and guess what….. he had a name :0

also he deserved the curse to be broken, actually! i’m sorry you got attached to him in his beast form, that’s probably because he’s in that form for majority of the film and your tiny brain got used to it, but he was, ONCE AGAIN, BORN A HUMAN. AND HE’S…. HUMAN. this beast form is a punishment. it’s a consequence of his actions that the enchantress found worthy of punishment. he’s imprisoned in this bodily form. no matter how used to it he gets, no matter how long the curse has made it feel like it’s been, no matter how comfortable belle makes him feel in his own skin, that’s still not how he wants to spend the rest of his life. when belle admits her love for him, the curse is broken. he fulfilled what the enchantress challenged him to do, he kept up his end of the bargain, even though it seemed like it wasn’t going to happen. so, no, belle isn’t “getting rewarded” for loving him, and, no, he wasn’t “better” as a beast. you’re seeing his true self come out, and he happens to be cursed when that happened. this is how he is now, and it only comes out in fuller form as time goes on. i don’t know why there’s such discourse about this, when it’s the literal premise of the story, but here we are.

also i know this isn’t what everyone thinks! but i’ve just seen too many posts about this, so i thought i’d make my stance on my boy crystal clear :)

favorite relationship

okay enough of that intense talk!!!!!! look at him being in love with his beloved!!!! his best friend!!! his future wife!!!!!!!! aaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!

favorite headcanon

he’s a night owl! he always has been! a lot of it stems from his nightmares, he stays up to avoid sleeping and experiencing them. they diminish as time goes on and he has belle beside him in bed, but he’s still a night owl because it’s calm and he can collect his thoughts :) he also is very intense and particular about… like, everything. fashion and food and just. existence. he’s pretentious as hell, your honor! his favorite animal is horses. he’s not a nerd about them or anything, he just knows them well, they’re familiar. growing up he was a really shy and timid and scrawny kid, which i think is a lot of the reason his father abused him — he found him disappointing. i guess “abusive father” is a headcanon too since that’s not explicit but gosh isn’t it? anyway. to end on a high note, his mother was always so gentle and sweet with him, always holding his hand and kissing his head. and when he’s older and a father himself, he’s a lot like this. he’s a very gentle papa, and he loves his children with that same gentleness. his kiddos are never afraid of him — they run to him when they’re afraid :”)
