when ilya does this at the centaurs and saves his biggest i love you for his husband 😖

people love to call the plane scene in TLG corny, but that just tells me that they’re misunderstanding the stakes of the scene. of course we KNOW nobody is going to die. it’s a romance book. that’s not where the emotional impact of that scene is supposed to come from. you’re not supposed to finish reading that scene and think “thank god they all survived.” the purpose of that scene is to highlight the real, tangible toll and impact that shane and ilya’s secret actually has. it’s to show that keeping the secret is unsustainable. the point of that scene is to hammer home that if one of them were to die right now, the other one would have to mourn in secret. they’d have lost the part of their life that made them whole and nobody could ever even know. they’ve spent the whole book up to that point struggling with this huge secret but thinking that it’s worth it to keep. this is the turning point for the reader AND them that no, it’s not worth it. the stakes in that scene are the emotional fallout. it serves to make the consequences of keeping this secret into something real, making it so that the reader can understand the real impact of what they’re doing.

Do u guys think in the GCU instead of the Jeremy Renner App there’s the Hayden Pike App
