Has This Been Done Already

The Watcher - Kurt Huggins

ARTHUR (high-pitched, giddy): John! John!

JOHN: God damn it, Arthur, what?!

ARTHUR (happy): You remember!

JOHN: You don’t know because there is nothing fundamentally different. I was just made aware –

ARTHUR: By Lilly. By your time in the hospital.

JOHN: By you.

ARTHUR (breathing hard, pleading): Don’t let go! Don’t let go!

JOHN: Arthur! (Both exerting themselves, Arthur is pulled onto the ledge again.) Damn it.

ARTHUR (shocked): You… you… you… you grabbed on!

JOHN: I told you I would!

ARTHUR (sniffling): I’m lost… I’ve lost… I’ve sunk too far.

JOHN: No. I know you, my friend. You are in there. You saved me before. I will not let you drown. (Arthur starts to sob again. John soothes.) Don’t be scared.

JOHN (slowly, amidst Arthur’s shaky breathing):

Whose woods these are… I think I know. His house is in the village, though. He will not see me stopping here… (Arthur breathes shakily, soon falling quiet.) To watch his woods fill up with snow. My horse must think it queer, to stop without a farmhouse near… (Fabric rustles.) Between the woods and frozen lake, the darkest evening of the year. He gives his harness bell a shake, to ask if there is some mistake. And only other sounds to sweep, of easy wind, and downy flake. The woods are lovely, dark, and deep… (Arthur sobs again.) But I have promises to keep.

And miles to go before I sleep.

(Quieter.) And miles to go before I sleep.

ARTHUR: I’m sorry, John. I’m so sorry. For everything.

JOHN: I’m sorry, too.

ARTHUR: Why? For what? You-

JOHN: For leaving you for so long.

ARTHUR: I feel cold. I feel cold.

JOHN (in misery): No.

ARTHUR (almost lighthearted): We’ve had worse.

JOHN (near tears): No, no, no.

ARTHUR: Maybe not.

JOHN: No.

ARTHUR: I…

JOHN (pleading, his voice quiet and shaking): No. Arthur. No.

ARTHUR: I think this … I think this may be it –

JOHN (suddenly shouting): Arthur! Arthur, no!

ARTHUR: Goodbye, my friend. (His breaths grow shaky)

JOHN (still shouting): Arthur, no! (Quieter.) Arthur, no. (A whisper.) No.

ARTHUR: Did you do this? (In disbelief.) You… you sewed up my wound. You – I knew. (Warmly.) I knew it. We weren’t gonna go out like this.

JOHN: I know.

ARTHUR: I knew you wouldn’t give up.

JOHN (determined): Never!

ARTHUR (audible smile): Just like me.

ARTHUR: Do you trust me?

JOHN: Of course, Arthur!

ARTHUR: Then trust me.

[...]

JOHN: (quickly) Do you trust me?

ARTHUR (taken aback): What?

JOHN: Do you… trust me?

ARTHUR: I trust you, John.

i've just finished watching Kaos

it was an awesome show, so of course netflix cancelled it after just one season

it made me think of this song by Charming Disaster:

Charming Disaster - Snake Bit

something, something, Arthur and John got teleported to the eyepocalypse and was asking around to find a way back when they were recommended to visit the local ‘google’(whatever that means) guy and his plus one.

MALEVOLENT SPOILERS UNDER UP TO EPISODE 26

wow Jon is back!

you can't imagine how happy was

also wtf Arthur, can you hear yourself

when he was going about some people being better than others, i couldn't help but think that of course he would say that as someone living in the 30s

but still

i like how the roles had turned

jon being the voice of reason there

i was quite relieved when arthur finally admitted to being wrong

finally

well i'm going to listen a bit more

i also want to add, that for a couple episodes now i feel like Arthur no longer be in the 30s anymore

there was something about the house of that family, that i don't remember the name of, being much older than it should be

also Arthur talking all the time about finally going to his place etc. feels a bit like forshadowing

idk, but it would be fun if they (Arthur & Jon) ended up in the present day (more or less)

gotta listen now

FINISHED ITTT ibis paint says it took me almost 20 hours omg

i finished I Am In Eskew

the ending was depressing

who would expect
