#DOWN BOY #they’re not even friends at this point but she says ‘down boy’ and he fckg sits back down #logan echolls #has an internal radio tuned to VMars and no matter if they’re enemies or allies she’s the main thing he listens to #they have both cheerfully watched the other led away to punishment at this point#smirking and making eye contact all ‘i see ur suffering and I rejoice’ #that has happened to both of them onscreen in both roles at this stage #but somehow instead of making it about a starry eyed ‘wow i was so wrong’ it’s more like a sideways shift into #‘bad shit happens to me and sometimes I do bad shit - and you KNOW what it is to be and live like that’ #there’s a mutual recognition of ruthlessness #it’s not a forgiveness #at all #like AT ALL #it’s an acknowledgement that they’re at the bottom of this pit together #their shift from enemies to allies has almost NO middle stage #they go from ‘i want bad things to happen to you’ #to ‘business deal: can i pay you one time to be ruthless in my service bc you’re literally the most tenacious pitbull I know’ #to ’…oh shit I’m in love??’ #there’s no middle stage for them bc in love or in hate: the other is still somehow the most important thing in the room (harrietvane)
