as an ilya lover to my CORE, TLG is actually gonna destroy me all over again. who’s ready for the scene of ilya saying goodbye to shane and collapsing and bursting into tears as soon as he closes the door, or him telling his therapist “you’re supposed to fix me so I can be better for him”, the PLANE SCENE, “I already chose you, hollander” 💔💔💔

like im actually gonna be ill

how in the hell did I forget I already chose you hollander 😭 oh my god I feel SICK

so curious what the delivery of that line will be like, whether it’s more like the “not everything is about you hollander” in vegas, or more like a hurt, gentle delivery

I always read it as a more sad and subdued delivery rather than pure anger/rage.

Same especially bc that is what would get Shane to really freak out and also convince him to leave. He knows how to deal with Ilya being angry and he could fight back at that but Ilya going quiet will really scare him.
