rescheduling already rescheduled shows yet again, hanging out with known abusers you once claimed loudly you weren’t supporting anymore, completely abandoning all your morals and beliefs…. truly a fucking mess
I've got a really angsty, triggery thought for a fic and I'm just. Idk if I have the strength. It's a bit dark to be put out into the timeline like I usually do. 😔 My poor Lucy. My poor Tim.
And I can also see Tim being extremely understanding and working diligently to help Lucy feel safe, to heal. But then also retreating to the bathroom and getting very upset, bc with his past with his father, being seen as a threat by the woman he loves is a nightmare to him.
This is a very dark/adult creative thought about trauma, so please keep that in mind if you continue reading. But I can absolutely see Lucy being blind-sided by nerves, the next time she is beneath Tim. 🤔 Being a small woman under a large man can physically/mentally be A Lot.
@chensbradf0rd he’s been blaming himself for what happened with caleb back then and now he’s not gonna stop blaming himself for what happened to her once again when he’s had a bad feeling about it all day :((( my shaylas
“Maybe I should ride with you today” the way he had a bad feeling about this at the start of the day brings a WHOLE different meaning to later on in the ep when he’s watching her at the station 😭😭😭
@isca_rambles she’s not receptive of comfort at all rn, which he KNEW & that’s why he didn’t fully hug her or do anything else, just a tiny forehead kiss to remind her he’s still there. the way she gagged a bit right after he left… she’s so not well right now :(((
I think this is the most telling that she doesn't want comfort rn. she doesn't melt into his kiss. she doesn't melt into his embrace. she's not there. he's not going to force comfort on her, no matter how much he probably wants to hold her. #therookie
everyone give Melissa O’Neil that Emmy nomination right NOW. her work in this episode was exceptional and she portrayed every applicable emotion of Lucy’s “cop’s worst nightmare” PERFECTLY. I am SO SICK. #TheRookie#Chenford
#therookie 8x10 made me miss so much closure from tim and lucy at the end and i would’ve liked a lot less drone kid video material and more chenford comfort at the end :(((
#therookie 8x10 was wayyy too much background noise and then 2 mins of IMPORTANCE aka lucy and then barely tim comfort? what are the writers even doing at this point
saying you’re in love with your israeli music producer with your entire chest and going on and on about how much you love him in today’s age and time is definitely a choice…. a horrible choice idc
