*to the tune of Gaston* Faavellll
We have to talk about him, our problem child. :p
That is three times in a row in very different Rebecca itterations I’ve enjoyed Favell! What’s wrong with me? I could never stand the guy.
In Jamais Plus, = the theatre version earlier this year, he was more sympathetic, funny with his laid back poses, the song, the cap on his head, it is hard not to partly like him.
In the musical at Bruxellons! he was fassionable, flamboyant, creepy yet fun and he came across as actually caring about Mrs Danvers. As much as I adore Ich and Bea, what I care about above all is Mrs Danvers.
And he held her during the inquest and drove her home after, asking if she is okay. The time yanked her arm when her gaze and voice drifted off about Rebecca and the time he cut her off during questioning, it came across to me in this version more as a ... can you believe how gay she is? Got to get her out of her lesbian daydreaming.
Honestly in the musical her heartbreak look, when Max shouts that he does not care about what happens to the cupid, I want to send her a team of therapists. Why is the closest thing we get freaking Favell?
Then we get to the novel. The Needfire. He is annoying in this. Very. The arm pull returns and it is addressed how wrong and scary this is. He is fun to hate. Every time this character pipes up it’s like yay this guy, he is being a pretty princess. It is hard not to cheer when he shows up in the finale and for what follows for him.
