ghostcat3000:mysilverylining:dangermousie:Caretaker Logan just guts me here. Not just because this scene made me flashback to the amazing sequence at the end of s2, but because that is why despite all his baggage, Veronica’s own scars, and the fact that he seems to have more bad luck than a platoon of black cats, Veronica and Logan belong together - because when push comes to shove, she will fly across the country after 9 years of radio silence to help him and because he will always always always be there taking care of her when she needs it and prickly, self-sufficient Veronica will let him. She will let her guard down with him, she will let herself be weak with him because despite everything she trusts him. Even when she didn’t trust him, she trusted him, if that makes any sense.And another thing - the one thing that always struck me so much about Logan in the show and the movie continues it - his capacity for love always astonished me - the fact that his childhood and everything that happened with Lily didn’t burn it out of him is astonishing. If Veronica reacted to trauma by building mile-high walls, Logan can’t help but lay his heart out as a carpet for people he loves to walk on - it’s as if he can only love them more, they will love him back, he thinks. And in a way, prickly, damaged, amazing Veronica needs someone like that - her trust issues and worries and armor need that sort of open outpouring. Neither of them will ever be fully healthy-whole by any conventional definition, but what they are works for each other precisely because this is the case (nice normal Piz could never compete, could never get the whole Veronica, could he?)Anyway, I should stop before I suffocate from my LoVe feels. This movie is bringing out the most perfect meta, while I’m still so incoherent, all I can do is point at all the pretty thoughts and agree. This entire sequence made me think of two things.One. This is second nature to Logan. He has been taking care of somebody ever since his mother first passed out with her shoes on in the living room. He brought her a pillow, made her drink water, dimmed the blinds so that the sun wouldn’t hurt her eyes. Fast forward to Carrie. Somehow he’s been slipping off shoes his entire life.Two. With Veronica, there’s a difference. She’s so terrifyingly alive, awake. If she’s like this it’s because she’s tired out not because she’s given up or hiding. He will do what he always does, like he did that night after the Neptune Grand roof. Take her home, carry her in, get her to bed, knowing that she will wake up and keep fighting, no matter what. And that if she lets him, he wants to fight alongside.He leaves her that note, folds it with exactness. Little does he know that he’s going to get his wish. -- source link
