the chance of life afresh annihilating me
Sep. 12th, 2014 11:17 pmthis was supposed to be a post about the stressful business of life, but i've decided to turn it into an observation on how the three fictional characters i've been obsessing the most over lately are wrapped up in death: claire kincaid, vada sultenfuss and nico di angelo.
end of observation.
tangent - omfg i had forgotten about this v. important scene in xmfc!! how could i.
i feel like the usual fannish agreement on xmfc!charles/erik is that it was a carly rae jepsen, love at first sight thing. maybe it was for charles (bc he has the creepy advantage of knowing "everything" about erik on first meeting). but y'know, i think that scene there was the moment erik went from "intriguing man, maybe useful" wrt charles to "he's certainly naive thinking these ppl will eventually help and accept us... but look at those EYES. and the grandpa wardrobe has its charm. and HE'S WITH ME! not with them, he's with me."
and then charles wasn't.
oh, erik.
