I'm (slowly) rereading the Lockwood & Co books after a few years of having them sit on my shelf and I hadn't realized how different the books are from the show, and yet how similar. and they are both so beautiful and engaging, even if they are different. we are so lucky that we have such an amazing show adaptation of such an amazing book series and I will probably never stop mourning the cancellation

There's something that I think we don't talk about enough and it's that book!Lucy canonically cannot stop looking at Lockwood and describing how he looks literally every other paragraph.

The best gift the tv show gave us was the confirmation that once we get outside of Lucy’s head it is clear that the entire world knows Lockwood loves her.
George has a front row seat and is far too practiced at calling it like he sees it in an effort to keep the suicidal maniac alive so ofc he knows, but even people who spend next to no time with them figure it out.
Kipps knows what he’s up against when he asks Lucy to the party. Flo sees them together a handful of times and tells Locky to his face he looks at her different. It is heavily implied that Barnes and Fittes both think something is going on between them. Even Winkman puts the dots together when Lockwood’s begging for her life.
Literally everyone except for Lucy and Lockwood themselves know what’s up.

Feel like something that’s not discussed a lot is how unapologetically sincere the show is. I feel like there’s a been a real push against vulnerability and sincerity in favor of cynicism or sarcasm in media, like there’s a fear that showing characters talking about how much they care about each other will be seen as “cringe” or unnecessary. And Lockwood & co just brazenly wears its heart on its sleeve in a way that feels really refreshing to me.

The whole non-existent love triangle with Lockwood, Lucy, and Holly was kinda peak comedy mixed with Othello to me. Like Lucy is immediately jealous, Lockwood misreads that completely and responds by telling Lucy all of Holly's virtues, Holly's just trying to do her job and not be perturbed by 35 Portland Row's everything, and George is just suffering because Lockwood and Lucy can't figure this out at all.
And then, the skull keeps trying to encourage Lucy to kill Holly in a fit of jealousy that mirrors Iago trying to get Othello to kill Cassio over presumably sleeping with Desdemona. Although, the skull's not doing this for power, he's just got a unique experience where he gets to play an active role in this soap opera he's watching.
(I think I also remember a scene where Holly is about to meet Flo and Lucy's just kinda thinking, "well there's no way Holly would have a better reaction to Flo than me," but then Holly's just totally chill and Lucy's kinda seething. I personally believe that one of two things happened. 1. George informed Holly before she met Flo or 2. Holly spent enough time with the trio to have absolutely no expectations about anyone they interact with because clearly that won't be a normal person.)

One of the reasons why I think that Lucy, Lockwood and George work so well as a trio is that they very much complete each other, making up for each other's weaknesses.
Like, Lockwood and George are a bit too aloof but Lucy is very emotionally mature. Lucy and George are a bit too flaky but Lockwood is a strong leader. Lockwood and Lucy are a bit too impulsive but George is levelheaded.
They're all very flawed and damaged kids but they raise each other up at every turn, effectively helping the others better themselves.
You know, they just work. They make sense. It's beautiful.
