Sorry but I'm still obsessed with all the nuances of little Olly's choice to put Qifrey and himself in the torment nexus. It's selfish. It's selfless. It's a scared kid doing the only thing he can think of to save his best friend's life. It's a former golden child desperate not to fail someone in trouble again. It's an act of unconditional love. It's shockingly ruthless. It's a tangible demonstration of how deeply he values Qifrey's life and dreams. It's putting his own wishes over Qifrey's. It's permission for Qifrey to keep living no matter what it costs. It's trusting Qifrey to keep their promise even if the version of himself who forced it on him is gone. It's trusting every version of himself to keep loving Qifrey no matter what memories are lost along the way. It's a decision he'd make a thousand times over, if the result is that they can grow old together.
