they actually make me so Sad. even though this is truly their purpose but they are incredibly humanized

“I was thinking, about back then, at Hailsham, when you used to go bonkers like that, and we couldn’t understand it. We couldn’t understand how you could ever get like that. And I was just having this idea, just a thought really. I was thinking maybe the reason you used to get like that was because at some level you always knew.” maybe deep down he always felt the nagging pain of a life set in stone

“You poor creatures.” 😭😭😭😭 like truly being created just to be used is diabolical

they’re sort of almost childish, in a way. like you can tell this life they’re living, the only one they were brought up into has made them all tall children. all this talk about tiny animals, and a fantastical place where couples like them will go if madame grants their wish. it makes me feel kind of sad, like they deserved more than what they were bred into. even if they don’t exactly know it

this is why they tell you Do Not Wait sigh

“It was amazing really, the way the years seemed to melt away, and we were so easy with each other.” i love their dynamic

“The main thing is, I kept you and Tommy apart.” Her voice had dropped again, almost to a whisper. “That was the worst thing I did.” and there it is

i still don’t understand Why they’re donors, who are they donating to? who needs these organs so badly? what are they doing with them?

like he bought her The Tape and they truly have such a good understanding of each other in a way ruth doesn’t with either of them like it’s so Plaguing to my mind

like am i Evil for wanting kathy and tommy together
