did I ever mention how much I love the appletree bite scene? genuinely one of the most impactful moments of the entire series.
like. they are far from the only instance of consensual blood drinking, but what really sets them apart is the buildup
Apo and Martyn are both practical peopleâthey donât make a super big deal of it in the scene itself. but when you consider all that led up to it, the fact that this moment has been consistently foreshadowed since session four (quite positively as consistently foreshadowed as any scene between two specific characters CAN be, in an unscripted series like vsmp)
itâs insane. itâs devastating. itâs literally everything I wanted from them since, again, motherfucking session four
and it gets even more haunting when you know how it ends
because they were so, so close.
never will a scene truly illustrate âcautiously, but with admirationâ (cc!Martynâs own words on v!Martynâs opinion of Apo) quite like this one
