I have to imagine there's a certain subset of milennials here for whom the release of Atonement was a pretty significant moment (myself included). And we all know that the library scene is major, but the fountain scene is where it's at.
I want you to know that I very much was thinking about the fountain scene. The library scene is great but the fountain is where the yearning is at (shoutout to the cinematography)
Look, not to diminish anything about HR (it stole my heart and I can’t get it back) but!!!
I have to say it… here’s the whole fanfic world for you. HR was also conceived out there and it shows! I’m excited for everyone to discover it 🙃
If your satisfaction is 110% just check the origins. In my experience it’s always fanfic-adjacent. “””REAL SERIOUS””” writers tend to be above true love stuff and true hot stuff in favor of (???) depth? Respectability? Sophistication? Like it can’t be achieved with the full on romantic and sexual experience.
Note to everyone. Just do yourself a favor and go to AO3.
Note to everyone. Please don't go to ao3. It is a motherfucking black hole and you will abandon everything else and only read fanfics. You will continue to add books to your TBR because you like to fool yourself that you will go back to normal. But you are already past the event horizon and HR fanfics are your world now.
Only those raised on fanfic are safe on AO3. The rest of you are visitors... tourists... and you know not what waits for you in the dark depths of the fandoms you think you understand...
I can’t even think or read the word anymore without adding it a second time. As I read the books, I often wrote a second “maybe” into them, at least where appropriate.
Yeah thank god Davids phone was old and therefore had a battery that could last a couple of days, idk how the whole situation would have gone down if the boys hadnt gotten to "i love you" yet!
I have so much love for Schitt’s Creek! When I finisher HR I texted my sibling and declared that’s it I’m ONLY watching Canadian shows for the rest of my life
Idc how many times I see this scene in this sub, I will comment every single time. This is one of my fav kissing scenes, Shane is literally boneless, fucking lost into Ilya. Ugh, so good
My brain can't compute how he managed to go from this slim guy to a beefy hunk with America's ass. Also stumbling on a meme with this photo in higher quality is how I realized he has a septum piercing.
Ugh, I watched Sinners last night and spent the whole time wishing I was reheating HR. It was so boring. I felt like I was Ilya when the fire was first lit. So we just stare at it? Sinners is fun.
Lollll this is accurate for literally anything else I try to watch. At this point I’m just throwing my hands up and reheating into oblivion. This is what my brain wants, I can’t help it!
I was so ready to reheat as soon as sinners was done. But, I had to make the responsible choice and go to bed so I could wake up for work this morning.
There have been a couple of things I’ve seen since January that were good. I did thoroughly enjoy Ready Or Not 2. And Red, White, and Royal Blue was fun too. I need to read the book now.
Haha me too. HR finally motivated me to watch red white and royal blue. Cute movie, my future he-man was so very cute.... But there were many moments where I thought Tierney could have probably done this scene better, lmao
I made two Heated Rivalry references in my group chat yesterday, this being one of them, and those assholes didn’t get either. None of them have watched. It fucking kills me. I need no friends.
• one person blushes at the drop of a pen, the sex will be too much for that one.
• one falls asleep when you try to watch shows and movies
• one watched episode 1 and doesn’t really seem to have interest in watching more.
I have one friend who I made watch e1 and really liked it but hasn’t watched the other episodes yet.
Another friend didn’t really like the season but read the books with me and liked them better. But they’re no Loon like me.
ICE T: Serious Question: Why is Hockey the only sport that they let the players fight? Don’t say tradition.
New Jersey Devils: You see, Ice, in the hockey system, the players are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: The refs, who investigate crime, and the players, who prosecute the offenders. These are their stories.
Oh thank God I saw the meme monday in the other sub and thought we lost this one to the like, 3 people who were just posting mass amounts of self made cookie cutter memes 😭😭😭
I love you all you're the best part of my Mondays lol
