[Benson & Stabler] ...they're happiest when they're together

i'll miss organized crime for a plethora of reasons, but the insight on eo and how they managed to grow from that awkward, stilted place after ten years to where they are now since we've seen them last will be my favorite. if anything, i appreciate they had five seasons and a bunch of crossover opportunities to explore the dynamic. there will always be things about their partnership, no matter the distance between them or how many years have passed that are innate. having that trust still, slightly rusted over and out of practice, but that bond still in place?? powerful. wonderful. magnetic. EARNED.

elliot stabler & olivia benson edit to francesca || one of my friends love for hozier has been infectious getting me to dive back into this discography. her specific love for the song ‘francesca’ and her tweeting about its lore influenced this edit. benson and stabler’s love is so grand and all consuming, but it has hurt people. i do think both of them would do it all over again if asked!!!
