a tragedy

Summary:

She didn’t know how to tell him that she’d stopped imagining what her life might be like without him. In fact, she’d stopped even considering a life where he wasn’t around. Which felt foolish because she shouldn’t even like him. They shouldn’t even still be together. People like them didn’t form partnerships. But… they had.

Sometimes a father doesn’t love his daughter. Sometimes a man loves her anyway, even after she’s shot him in the arm and sort-of-saved his life.

Or, Cee reflects on what she knows about love, discovers poetry, and learns how to swim.

Katy O'Brian needs to stay on The Mandalorian, for the sake of the gays. We deserve it.

Hold your head up little man, you’re a king!

There’s something about Ezra and names. Throughout the movie, it’s easy to notice how adamant Ezra is that Cee tell him her name. He asks quite a few times, growing increasingly frustrated when she won’t tell him. I always found this interesting, as it seems like a strange thing to get caught up on. But then I realized – it’s common for Sketchy People to ask someone (especially children) their name as a way to gain power or influence over them, usually disguised as friendliness or trustworthiness. 

The first thing Ezra does with Damon is ask his name. He then proceeds to verbally use Damon’s name eleven times in the ten or so minutes between then and Damon’s death. Ezra most often uses Damon’s name when bargaining, specifically at the beginning (when Ezra is trying to get information from him) and at the very end when Damon gains the upper hand. There is a brief period in between when Ezra is engaging in very casual, friendly conversation, learning more about Damon and sharing his own anecdotes. He doesn’t use his name even once during this brief conversation. 

Ezra uses people’s names as weapons. He uses them to try and worm his way into people’s heads (”Does this mean the deal is off, Damon?” “Damon your girl is scared, you should listen to her.” “It’s a shame, Damon”), calls them by their name to connect with them, to grab their attention, to try and manipulate them. So, when he’s put in a shitty situation with a teenage girl whose nerves are clearly one breath away from frying, it makes sense that he’d want to know her name. Easier to connect with her, easier to get her to trust him, easier to manipulate her. 

But it’s only well into their reluctant partnership that he actually does get her name. And do you know how many times he uses it during the movie? Once. One time, that’s it. Even when they continue working together, Ezra doesn’t use her name against her – doesn’t even need to, because at that point they’ve both unconsciously decided that they’re going to work together.

@jessahmewren I just have to add this little excerpt from the script because I think you’ll really like it (if you haven’t seen it already ofc)

I have not seen the script!? How have I not seen this? *literal sobbing*

Also editing this to say that as much as I love the extended dialogue, I love the quiet, understated way Pedro delivers the line in the film the best.

If you want the link, let me know! I could send it through discord, or I have it on a pdf I could link. No pressure of course 😊❤️

That would make my day if you shared!

Omg I love all of this so much. @orangechickenpillow would you mind sending me the link to the script as well?

Not at all, friend! I'll send it to your discord ❤️
