Thank you for tagging me (almost 6 weeks ago 🤦♀️🙈) @carlos-in-glasses and @guardian-angle22!
Rules: Share the fic (or edit/art/etc) you posted as close to exactly one year ago as possible. You can just post a link if you like, but feel free to talk about it too! How did you feel about this creation then, how do you feel now? Do you love it, hate it, has your creation process changed at all? Anything you'd do differently in hindsight? Go nuts!
I'm not great about remembering to play tag games, but I figured this one might be okay, even if I'm very late to it. So let's dive into the archives!
And I really am feeling nostalgic because it turns out that a year ago? We were finally getting season 5 footage. (Hang on while I cry for a bit.)
This past weekend was the one-year anniversary for this set:
That particular gif is from a season 5 teaser, and is part of a compilation set of TK and Carlos talking about how the time they have together is important and precious to them, starting with this scene:
The original version of the set was only 3 gifs, and was expanded to 4 gifs after we got another moment in episode 5x01. (The 4-gif version is now the main post.)
It got another update, with an image added via reblog, inspired by the Mikko Harvey poem, "The number of hours we have together is actually not so large…" 🥺
If I ever get around to it, I'd like to update the 5x05 gif to footage from the episode. (Catch my WIP list looking at me skeptically.)
Also, TODAY is actually the one-year anniversary for this set:
This is a parallel set of Carlos in the pilot vs. Carlos at his own wedding reception.
I couldn't get over how Carlos is visible in the background throughout that entire scene in the pilot. And eventually, he walks up to TK, walks into the foreground. He quite literally goes from the outside looking in, to being surrounded by the love of his family, friends, and husband.
Okay, so the trip down memory lane was pretty fun. Please consider this an 🏷️OPEN TAG for anyone who wants to play, whether it's for the first time or for another round of sharing!
