There is really…something, in how Connor seems the closest to Logan when it comes to death. He was told about the mausoleum from Logan, that he has this entire story about how Logan bought it and when, and who it came from. Con is the one to plan Logan’s funeral. Our only good-natured Logan & Connor moment came from Connor reminiscing about a moment with Logan and Connor’s dead mother. It’s him, the sibling who was cast out for three years and who accepts Logan’s death so readily with a simple “he never even liked me” and whose mother can’t get a front row seat like Kerry and Marcia and Caroline and Sally Anne can, it’s Connor who buys the house and is open to the siblings all living there and then again with the mausoleum, it’s him who knows this information and gets to share it with his siblings. 

And I want to say it’s about how much he’s accepted death and has faced their reality and maybe he has but it’s still another haunted house situation, but in a different way. It’s when Con buys the house that the siblings actually pay attention to him (so much so that Ken snaps and asks for them to stop ignoring him!). It’s when he explains the mauseloum and gives them the tour that they’re listening to Connor, entranced, because he’s giving them more information about their dad. Ken, Shiv, and Rome are stabbing each other in the back and dragging each other away from the door, claiming all the while that they’re not going to live in a haunted house and that maybe they can do better, maybe. But Connor sees, Connor sees and understands and accepts their reality and holds the door to the haunted house open and says well we can live here together, at least.

You take the man out of the city, not the city out the man You take the man out of the city, not the city out the man You take the man out of the city, not the city out the man

no because it is all about the tiny broken cracking voices and the shaking and the eye contact and the tenderness from these older adults who have known these kids since they were babies being raised to be adults and now for the first time they ARE just scared helpless little kids. but nothing stops. and they have to handle the company. and someone has to take over. and everyone hates everyone else and there will be no time for anyone to grieve because now its the cutthroat ceo hunger games. and connor had an empty wedding and they'll force him to pull from the election and he'll kill himself. and kendall and roman and siobhan will have to lose every familial parental figure they had.

the victoria sponge cake. he gets that cake he gets told that he’s lost a parent. none of his siblings thought about him when they heard their father was dying. they didnt even think of him. and if he didnt get married that day he worried willa might run out on him. he wanted to keep the wedding on so that he could bind willa in their marriage before she could change her mind. and his dad died and his siblings couldnt care less about telling him and treating him like an equal and so he clings onto the last person he has and they get married on that day.

each of the sibling reactions is insane. kendall turns into delegating ceo even though he has no idea what to do. shiv turns into a little girl asking where her daddy is. roman goes avoidant sick inside eating himself from the inside guilt. connor marries the woman he pays to live in his house

it's the way that tom called shiv first. twice. and she didn't pick up. and so she was the last one to attempt to say any words to logan, after he was already dead. tom thought of her, first, and she's going to remember that she didn't pick up for the rest of her life

The German dub decided to translate "Disgusting brothers" into "Bums-Brüder" aka fuck brothers in the "these guys are fucking" sense and it's making me go insane. All tongues that rise against Tomgreg shall fall etc. etc. etc., this is truly my version of Supernatural's Spanish dub making Destiel canon except we are talking about an actually good TV show and competent writers

imagine being taissa turner and not only fumbling the bag with a silly butch king who was your first everything but also a hot femme queen who you’ve been MARRIED to for MANY YEARS. girl get up

the warden is the video game protagonist of all time. like my blood is cursed. i can never go home. trauma and despair follow me around like a shadow. watch me save the world with all the enthusiasm of a walmart employee working on christmas eve

I love Lou for making Pinnochio just fall in love with a ram. He's such a little kid. Immediately pack-bond with Animal, give it a name, and act affronted whenever anyone who didn't follow your own internal logic asks why you're being like that. He's just a little kid. (And a wooden puppet).

*hitting you with a stick* no benoit blanc movies should not interact. they should not lead up to something. you need to detox from the marvel/sherlock bbc poisoning. they should be completely independent movies (maybe w some cameos/little references for fun) and go on for as long as there are stories rian johnson wants to tell in this universe. i do not want an overarching plot i do not want a team up i dont want a benoit-focused prequel i want some good old fashioned episodic murder mysteries that have nothing to do with each other!!!!!!!!!!! also rian johnson has literally said he's not gonna do a prequel and he wants the movies to all stand on their own
