summary: you find out that butcher slept with maeve, and attempt to ignore your feelings by going m.i.a. and going home with a complete stranger, only to awake the green-eyed monster living inside of butcher
preface: this isn’t set in canon timeline, it’s basically just using the bit where butcher sleeps with maeve as a bit of a jealousy catalyst
notes: this man has a hold on me… and i feel like this got a little rushed at the end but i still kind of like it, please let me know what y’all think! (also, i’m sorry all my stuff has the same formula, i promise i’m trying to mix it up!)
warnings: a lot of swearing, the ‘sewer-slide’ word, google-translated french, sexual content, and some soft smut
Things are good, too good,
but you’re doing your best not to look a gift horse in the mouth. Hughie and
Annie are happy, MM is content, and Frenchie is excitedly creating new methods
of blowing up Supes almost daily. Butcher is… well, Butcher. He’s grumpy
and brash, but seems to be feeling a little more positive lately, focusing more
on recon and intel rather than running in with guns blazing.
For the first time in what felt like
a lifetime, you had managed to go grocery shopping without anyone
stumbling home bloody and bruised. Frenchie is humming along to the song that
had been playing on the radio, carrying most of the plastic bags while MM
carries one with you on his back. You were all in such high spirits that he had
let you jump on his back at the bottom of the apartment stairs, carrying you up
four flights as if you weighed no more than a hiking backpack.
Frenchie chuckles at the two of you
as he unlocks the apartment door, entering first and pushing it open all the
way. You have to duck a little, giggling and holding on to MM for dear life as
he starts jogging toward the couch. He drops the bag on the floor before falling
into the sofa, and you squeal as he squashes you.
“Hey,” you exclaim, still laughing, “what
the fuck? Steeds don’t sit on their riders!”
“You want to ride me next, petit
ange?” Frenchie calls from the kitchen.
You writhe until MM moves, standing
up with a satisfied grin across his lips. You flip him your middle finger as he
turns away, ushering Frenchie out of the kitchen so he can put the groceries
away. You find the TV remote buried in the couch cushions, and just as the old
screen flickers to life, Kimiko emerges from the hallway. She looks at Frenchie
with a small smile, signing hello before her nose crinkles, and she
signs another sentence you struggle to catch as your attention is called toward
the master bedroom doors.
Frenchie frowns curiously, “She says
that it smells in here.”
no offense but angst leading to smut will always top everything else. argue with the wall because i ain’t hearing it ok, the yearning? the heartache that leads to hurried kisses or passionate slow ones? the face grab? the holding them as close as they can during? shut up!
I love how Arthur is canonically one of the girls like he is not a girl but he is one of the girls, they sit down and gossip and in modern au he so would be invited to movie nights where they paint each other’s nails and braid their hair and summon the dark one and watch shitty rom coms and its so real he is so older sister core
not to be problematic but i literally do not give a shit about age gaps when dating vampires. they thirst for your blood. “but it’s predatory!!!!” yeah. it is. “they’re preying on you!!!” they’re vampires. they do that. “it’s a power imbalance!!!!!!” what part of vampires are you not getting
the best thing about tumblr is that you can watch a show and then you come here and someone has made a gifset of it and you can put it on your blog like a sticker in a journal
Soooo I have another useless analysis here about the hospital scene in the show, there are alot of micro expressions that are so so good, so here we go also excuse the variantion in gif quality.
“Cordyceps grow inside the brain”,
We see him visibly stressed when Marlene talks about surgery, she doesnt answer him and continues at her own pace and he knows immidiately something is up ,after Marlene tells him about the procedure and that there could be a cure, he just stumbles back, you would think that he’s thinking of the possibility of a cure but you can see him search through his brain how this would go, how this procedure could hurt Ellie, and you can feel his heart just stop when he looks up at her, “ Cordyceps grow inside the brain” and he says it in such a soft way that you can sense how terrified he is, you can see the alarms go off in his mind. He becomes angry and stressed, he gets up towards Marlene and they knock him down,
“Please, you don’t understand”, when have we ever seen this man beg like that, and you can see his heart drop, because he is completely alone and his kid is getting ready for surgery, a surgery that will kill her, and he’s helpless there, after resisting for so long he finally allowed himself to care for her, and now she’s being ripped away from him in the same brutal way like Sarah, by authority figures. This scene reminds me of the scene when Tess’s bite is revealed, we see him become paralyzed there too, he is faced with the death of yet another person, and his hands are tied, its him against a hospital full of armed men.
“Im sorry, I have no other choice” , “I do”
and she knows he’s threating them, I do, a promise, a promise that if he doesn’t get her out of there safe no one will.
Can you hear my heart breaking??, So many emotions on his face, telling Marlene “ You’ll regret this”, “don’t make me do this”, it’s the pleading face he’s made before.
Now look how he’s looking around, he’s scanning the whole place infront of him, desperately looking for a way to escape? he’s thinking of a plan, anything but having to resort to killing.
and you can still see him look around in the beginning of the gif, but then you can see him give up, he stumbles down the stairs, knowing that there is no other way than killing everyone in his path, he’s getting further and further away from Ellie and it’s either now or never, and you can see him come to terms with it in the next gif,
Now what I love so much about the way they play with lightening in this show is you can see the light in shining in his eyes, revealing the glassy teary eyes in the beginning, it makes him look vulnerable, you can see that it affects him, ofcourse the fact that Ellie is facing death upstairs but also the fact that he’s gonna have to resort to violence once again, but I bet he was having flashbacks too, to Sarah? to those feelings he had after her death, to Tess, who gave him one job, and now he’s failing her too. and the camera turns to his left and the light literally leaves his eyes, and you can see those shadows around his eyes, and you can see the second the switch flips in his head, and all he can think about is Ellie
And now anger has taken over, every emotion in his head is turned off, the same thing that happened when Tess told him “save who you can save”, you see him go from stressed to stoic before he grabs Ellie, this is his coping mechanism after Sarahs death, even then we see him go out of his body, he disociates when he’s faced with the death of a loved person, he shuts off and goes into autopilot. (putting these next to each other just breaks my heart, everytime he decides to love someone he loses them)
This one I just added because Pedros face just gave me chills here, because even though we saw him being all cold and badass previously this one’s different, you can see how furious he is, but good god also the way the camera moves and the light has left his eyes, Also idk if this is gonna be coherent but the fact that he also just looks younger in this gives me the feeling that this is not just for Ellie, he is redeeming himself for Sarah too. Gah I cannot gush enough about this particular scene because look at the acting?! the way he lifts the gun, idk it is so so perfect, the terrifying look in his eyes, and the music that plays at this part, and you’re immidiately like “oh shit”, in the following scene they did the same with the light and it makes him being checked out so much more believable, there is nothing in his head but to save Ellie, he eliminates everyone, even if they give themselves up,
Okay but is that blood from his ears from the hit to the head or to the bomb? This man will not get up for weeks in Jackson, he is gonna be limping around, he has an unhealed stab wound, a fucked up hand he refuses to let rest, now a concussion and he’d be lucky not to have his hearing more fucked up, he is gonna be in a hell of a lot of chronic pain, once the adrenaline wears off.
he doesnt tremble in the slightest, we saw how terrified he was when the child clicker made her way into the truck, how he was trembling. This time all that is gone, he is done, last time he wasn’t able to defend himself when Sarah was taken from him, this time he aint letting anyone take her. But the fact that he’s not trembeling this time is so interesting, there is anger brewing in him, last time his kid was taken by authority figures , now again, are those two memories uniting in his head? The anger of having to go through this once again.
The slow motion in the hall was so anxiety inducing, you know when you get closer to something you don’t wanna see and your legs feel like heavy led, he’s petrified of what could be behind those doors, but this is also the first moment we see the light shine in his eyes, and we can see the tears, and its the same face he made when he saw an injured Sarah, because this situation is too familiar to him, he’s been there before,
Im gonna scream, because look at how he looks at the floor before he goes in, and he very slowly lifts his eyes, and he momentarily stops, taken aback from the scene he’s seeing, because she’s unconsious and he has no idea if she’s still alive or not, look at how terrified he looks, his heart drops with the sight of another kid looking dead
at last she’s back with him and look at how he’s taking in her face, his face just softens and he looks at her for any sign of injuries, maybe something that stayed with him from the time he found her in Silver lake, he slightly smiles, so much love and adoration in his eyes for her, he has her, she’s safe.
and then it dawns on him, what just happened, and what could still happen, there not out yet, you can see how terrified he is, he completely checked out during the shootings. We saw how tortured he and Tess were about their time in the Boston group, we never got the details because they never wanted to even mention it, this is gonna be another weight on his shoulders, another thing he has to live with,
What I find so smart for his character to do at this moment is that the moment he sees Marlene he immidiately looks around if there are more people, because ofcourse he has his gun at the ready in his other hand, but if there are more people its no use, he has already analyzed the side of the car before going that direction, he analyzes the place before turning his attention to Marlene,
This sequence of events just hurts my heart, because he knows that without missing a beat that Ellie would sacrifice herself, because she has been through hell and seen too much, too many deaths, and she would want their deaths to mean something, that all that suffering would mean something, that it would’ve all not been in vain. And you can see him struggle so hard with that fact, he remembers their conversation on the roof. But the moment Marlene gets closer, thats all gone, he outweighs it in his mind, and he sacrifices it all for her safety, and the light is once again literally gone from his eyes, we can see when he shuts off and when the emotions come back to him with how smart they use the lightining to their advantage, the complete and utter hatred he looks at Marlene is so good, he knows Ellie deserves a choice, but he also knows that she’s burdened with guilt about her immunity. but also he cant see another person go, another person being taken away from him, she had been through hell and she deserved to live, to smile, and he was not gonna standby while another person was ripped away from him. And ahhhhh I am rambeling here I know but its all just so well done and tragic. Its making my brain rot
Something about the way Ellie holds on to Joel, and how Joel has his arms securing her in the show,
I know this doesn’t seem like a big deal, as someone who rides a bike and has people ride with me on the back of the bike I often know how comfortable they feel by the way they hold on to me.
She is half hugging him and he has his arms in a way thats securing her, and its just so full of affection, even insubtle ways Joel makes sure she’s safe incase she falls asleep, and he has a hold on her. At this point they just completely lean into those father daughterness. It just makes me think of how cold and loveless Fedra made her life, and how affection starved she was, look at her face when she leans into Joel, Joel had no chance against this kid, she’s just so damn loveable, and you can see how much she loves and adores Joel, damn you Pedro and Bella (affectionately) my brain is rotting
I dont know why but whenever someone holds on to me like that on the bike, Im like “I’ll protect you with my life”.
