So I’m not mad at you for making me cry, because I already knew I would. I AM kind of amazed at your ability to make me feel this way, and am glad for the emotional stretching I did to prep for it, b/c gah, girlfriend.
Even though the backstory part here is pure imagination, it all makes so much damn sense and feels so fucking Kalinda that I can barely stand it. Yes, of course she’s never really trusted. Yes, it’s true, even when part of her (maybe even a BIG part of her) actually cares. Yes, she can be hurtful and unfeeling, but of COURSE it’s because there’s something deep inside feeling a whole hell of a lot, and those feelings are frightening to her and she has to protect herself from it; from people. It’s such a heart wrenching yet subtle portrayal, and you do it with both love for and honesty about who this character IS.
And that character is just this beautifully screwed up individual who I want DESPERATELY to someday take a leap of faith and trust Alicia someone, because her being so alone huuuurts me.
Sigh. The things you do to my heart. They aren’t even right. (In that way things aren’t right when they are REALLY, REALLY RIGHT.)
