this picture has completely erased my (silent) concerns about them being too old? I had the same silent concerns, so you're not alone! And yes! This photo definitely calmed all my fears. The angles in the other shots definitely weren't flattering, especially with respect to David. But their hotness came through in the clutch, so I think we've got nothing to worry about.
Also, RE: them being all grown up... It makes it SO WEIRD to re-watch the wee-days of season 2 because they are ENTIRELY DIFFERENT PEOPLE now. And yeah, it's weird to watch s2 with s7-9 in mind, but something about these photos just makes it infinitely stranger. It just reminds me even more how young they are how much they've yet to go through and how FUCKING INTENSE their relationship will become. THEY HAVE NO IDEA! ITS SO AWESOME! And it's so cool to see what a strong foundation they have to their friendship that yeah has those moments of I WANNA SEX YOU UP (more often than not? y/y?) but for the most part it's just such a great bond. OH MY GOD THEY MAKE ME RAMBLE SO MUCH.
Even in the few moments we do get to see of them I still feel like an interloper? Like, oh god, the scene at the end of Per Manum? LORD, it's so desperately intimate it's almost hard to watch. And like, the hallway scene in Memento Mori? It's so sweet and sad and HOPEFUL and it's theirs??! It's so looooooovely that they reach this high note of intimacy that so many people never ever get to experience long before they ever do the naked pretzel. It's funny how for them, sex is both nothing and everything? YES! TO EVERYTHING! And I was thinking about this as I was making coffee yesterday, that it's SO FUCKING AMAZING how these characters' private life is literally PRIVATE. We are not privy to 90% of the intimacy they share, and yet what we are privy to speaks VOLUMES. The "Per Manum" scene always gives me chills because it feels so wrong to intrude on such a private moment between these two, but also for me, that scene in the motel room in "Requiem." Not only does it break my heart (for obvious reasons) but it's such a deliberate and intimate display of affection that should be just there's but we're like these weird voyeurs watching their every move? OH YEAH BECAUSE ITS A SHOW AND THATS THE WHOLE POINT OF IT? UGH I TOLD YOU: RAMBLE RAMBLE RAMBLE. Words come out and in such a high volume, I don't even know.
