It has been a long time since I’ve posted anything on this tag. But I just watched episode three of season six. And Patrick Nash, the man you are. He sent half of London (and Moses) on a wild goose chase after a diamond that was never actually there. All of that just for him to go to Southampton to see Eliza.

Poor Clarence probably has to deal with long-term consequences (like not knowing where half of his things are anymore), Moses has missed some very important quality time with his wife, and Alexander now has a complex about Patrick and Eliza’s relationship (considering she lied for him, even though she would probably do that for other people too ngl).

Been thinking a lot about this moment and how Patrick chooses Eliza—he listens to her and doesn’t ruin his own life, entirely, in the end. He already messed everything up by taking it this far, but he does eventually do the right thing for both their sakes.

It’s my personal head canon that he doesn’t entirely understand how much Eliza cares about him, and that’s why he even does all this. He’s been on his own for so long, he’s forgotten what it’s like to make decisions not just with yourself in mind.

I wouldn’t want to change this trajectory or this moment- it’s high stakes enough that Eliza has to be vulnerable and open with her feelings when she wouldn’t be otherwise (yet). The realization on Patrick’s face that Eliza really does value their friendship. It’s great. But I do wish they hadn’t actually sent him to prison. The show could have hand waived it away so easily but instead chose to write his character into a corner and cut off what we could have had (them working together forever 😭).

Either way, we're not alone

I'll find a new place to be from

A haunted house with a picket fence

To float around and ghost my friends

No, I'm not afraid to disappear

The billboard said, "The end is near"

I turned around, there was nothing there

Yeah, I guess the end is here

The end is here
