This whole thing is gorgeous, the colors, the sort of hallucinatory complex points of physicality – there's something about it that reminds me of how the show itself will take an image and fix one point in it that's sharp and blur the rest, time-lapse location shots, so that you're made conscious of how odd it actually is to be watching a moving picture. Which is a phrase you don't think about, usually, as one doesn't, as well, with phrases to do with hearts.

I have ten kinds of a Thing for metaphors made literal, except that it is mostly always done so badly, I've grown very suspicious, I almost didn't look – but (although, er, I don't think I've ever addressed you so directly, sorry, fandom makes stalkers of us all) because this was yours, I did, obviously, and am glad I did.
