This scene is just SOOOO
-the fact she has every word of that letter memorized
-the whispered(almost crying tbh) “but in a parallel universe”
-the realization on her face after “i wrote that”
-the swelling music
-HIS THUMB IN HER MOUTH
“What did you think? That he’d leave his wife and kid for you? That he’d look over at you and suddenly realize that you were the woman that he couldn’t live without.”
my dream oc guest star is the queen herself judith light. like, bring back judge donnelly to organized crime and have her encounter an older, gruffer elliot and comment on his history with liv to the new squad with her present in the room. donnelly never gave a fuck
the switch up is always so funny to me like “oh, you know Captain Benson? The love of my life? Captain Olivia Margaret Benson(-Stabler)? Yeah, okay, I’m in.” down so horrendously bad for her
We’re not talking enough about how Fin got to the diner and fresh out the suv said “Where is she?” AND his “your son put out a hit on two of my closet friends”
Elliot fighting with every DA they ever had and Olivia always silently watching in the background is so funny bc that’s her now. HE RAISED HER and I love that tbh
Y’all. THEY HUGGED GOODBYE. Like so casually. “You gotta go?” “Yeah.” And then they HUGGED. Like boyfrengirlfren. All their other hugs have been like big emotional drama hugs and this was just like “bye baby. Love you.”
They didn’t bring a single person back. Not Cragen or Cabot or Warner or Huang or ELLIOT STABLER. They didn’t bring a single person back for their “landmark season”…. instead, they made half the season about some random family we don’t give af about
