The Potential Life of Addie Larue

(And How It Was Thwarted By The Final Chapter)

If you haven’t already read this post by @bluebellss1 I would highly recommend reading that first because it was what inspired this one (I was going to reblog and add on to the original post, but my own interpretation got so long I thought it might be easier to make a new one 🙈).

I love everything about the above mentioned post. And while I’m not a huge fan of shipping characters based off of themes/motifs (I’d rather ship them based on in-text evidence), I’ll admit there’s something that should have been super satisfying about Addie/Luc, but that the ending of TILOAL failed to provide for its characters and readers.

As bluebellss said, Addie represents the stars, and the symbolism for this is not at all subtle. The recurring phrase “a constellation of stars” in reference to Addie is evidence enough, and I believe Schwab even described Addie as a “girl made of stars” in an Instagram post before the book was released.

We know Luc is the night/darkness. We’re told this point blank, time and time again throughout the book. 

So when is the only time we ever truly see stars? At night. And what is darkness if we don’t have light to compare it to? Nothing.

filmmakers and audiences and critics alike all need to start suspending their disbelief again

i have this silent awe and appreciation for experience and wisdom that comes with time. when monotony and redundancy turn into a craft, when the amateur turns into an expert, when it becomes effortless to others. but there is practice hidden underneath it all. years of it. it is how my father can measure distances without any instruments because he has been an engineer for so long and his kids watch him do it in awe. it is how i know just the correct amount of milk and sugar when i make coffee for the people i love and they think it to be alchemy. it is the combination of efficiency and knowledge that only time can bring. gifted talents are great, but a time-honed talent is labor and repetition. you claim it as your own because time has made it yours, time has etched it like a schoolkid etches their initials on the desk over a period of time

“And it is not far enough!”

“And It Is Not Far Enough!”

“Do you think there’s a corner of this Earth that you could travel to far away enough free me from this torment?”

“And It Is Not Far Enough!”

“[…] that honor is hanging by a thread that grows more precarious with every moment I spend in your presence”

“And It Is Not Far Enough!”

“You are the bane of my existence”

“And It Is Not Far Enough!”

“And the object of my desires”

You don't need to feel so much shame all the time. You're allowed to struggle, you're allowed to take breaks, you're allowed to be kind to yourself. Let yourself be <3.
