The Morgensterns being Swiss… lowkey is that a Frankenstein reference ??

I feel like CC makes a few different nods to classic gothic books throughout like Arthur being the mad uncle in the attic has to be a reference to Jane Eyre

let’s all live ..

maryse naming her youngest son max after the older brother she revered and missed dearly after he was taken from her too abruptly & alec naming his youngest son after the brother he adored and who was taken from him adruptly — the name max has been passed down 3 generations for brothers loved and lost and its so heartbreakingly beautiful to realise our love for someone is eternal. we loved them in our shared past, we love them in our separate presents and we will love them in the future versions.

Excuse me but @tobeornottobetequila just said that Kadir Safar gives Judah from Bojack Horseman vibes and I have been screaming for the last five minutes.

and then princess carolyn maryse and robert bojack 🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️

WAIT COOKING WITH THE LYRICS OMG. The lyrics in the first song are so fitting for her 🥺 she's such a "soldier" coded char even when she was in the Circle, and the one with pretending everything is fine/normal is literally her marriage with Robert. Two of the most fleshed out chars in the Circle fr 😭 Robert and Maryse could've been that power couple (they kinda were tho for a short time ig)

i really think so as well with the soldier comment!!! i think in general she fits that archetype but also i liked this song a lot for her esp because of last few lyrics “Please wait until I'm drunk Then take me onto the dance floor And let me cry against your cheek Then take me out back, and shoot me in the alley” “I won't come back to haunt you I won't have the time” i think they r sooooo her . and maryserobert still is a power couple to me but that is js coz im a bad person and think everybody should get divorced for the better of the world .
