Do you think Lawrence took up smoking after the bathroom trap?

#listen… chainshipping appeals to me in a very specific way #something something a part of him was left behind in that bathroom. was it it his humanity? was it his goodness? was it the man he knew for #only six hours? #I find Lawrence and Adam so interesting because it’s specifically the idea that these are two men who barely know each other. Adam know more #about Lawrence solely bc he was hired to follow him but he doesn’t KNOW him. #they definitely weren’t chatting during those six hours. and yet. #everything they felt together led to that final moment. where Lawrence crawls away from the exit so he can touch Adam #it’s this moment of raw humanity between two people who have been trying desperately to *ignore* their shared humanity #and it is something that haunts Lawrence. #I don’t think he lied to Adam. I think he meant to come back but he was bleeding out and delirious and most definitely passed out from the #pain #and I don’t think he ever forgets Adam #it is a love story. but in the way that a ghost story is #there is a love for what is not there #and so I ask: do you think Lawrence took up smoking after the saw trap? #to feel like he is even slightly closer to KNOWING what is not there? #anyway. I’m tipsy #saw #saw 2004 #lawrence gordon #dr lawrence gordon #adam stanheight #Adam Faulkner-stanheight #lawrence x adam #chainshipping #I’m gonna be real I find chainshipping wayyyyy more interesting when Adam stays dead
