I’m still thinking about Hudson and Russian, so I need to talk to you about it.
Like he did the accent all the time in interviews and on set, clearly part of his ‘I want to be him and fuck him’ thing with Connor.
And now he gets to learn it for s2! He’s definitely sending voice notes to Connor after his daily Duolingo sessions for his approval.
There’s something about the character Shane doing it out of love for Ilya and a desire to communicate with him in his language. And Hudson learning it to share the experience of learning it with Connor.
AAAAA i hope it’s okay that i post this because i literally started to evil smile reading this that’s the type of blur shit I do like…. he’s defo sending connor voice notes and connor is defo thumbs up/thumbs downing them (think gladiator lmaoo). the two of them sitting like schoolboys w the linguistics coach, even though at this point connor’s just there as emotional support. something something i want to understand you in all your forms…. something something if it’s for you, i want to do it…
also we just have to consider. them practicing one on one. idk if you remember how hudson was like connor’s always watching the way you speak, where your tongue sits in your mouth when you talk… connor telling hudson to watch his mouth when he says certain words, to focus up and just pay attention, listen to the sound of his voice…. and hudson’s paying attention alright……. 🚬🚬🚬
