#and if graz gives her closure……

[elliot-olivia]

Thoughts on SVU25? It's been touch and go for me and now I'm losing hope there's going to be any payoff for sticking it out.

imo there have been some hits and some (frankly astonishing) misses but the liv character work does occasionally go crazy so, like. i’m not a hater. i will continue to be seated.

also idk what “payoff” means for you but (& i’ve said this on main) it does kind of feel like dgraz is building up to a potentially incredibly cathartic endgame with all these lewis parallels. i know some people really hated that they didn’t do anything with the courthouse stuff last episode but i’m not mad about it? at least not yet. graz seems to enjoy a long game (see: the velasco storyline) & there are just…. too many signs something is coming? of course if it all goes to shit and they trudge all this up for nothing i might just lose my mind and hunt the writers room for sport, but rn i am still very much 👀👀👀👀👀

#it’s just. after noah’s name drop everything else i previously considered coincidental feels planned #esp. in light of the velasco pay off #maddie and her bracelet vs. liv and her necklace #bruno’s third man syndrome speech vs. imaginary friend elliot stabler being in that beach house with her….. #(my old partner. he’d know what to do.) #see it’s not even ABOUT eo to me really. i just think elliot’s absence at that time is a wound olivia still carries with her #and if graz gives her closure…… #(and by her i mean do also mean ME) #if he does it WELL……… #well. s25 i have not written you off yet.
