Soulmates {Cosima ღ Delphine} #34: "That felt like accept it." "Yes."
http://i.imgur.com/IWVima7.png #34; c o s i m a ღ d e l p h i n e appreciation thread “the love story of the show” GRAEME MANSON Brilliant grad student meets gorgeous French scientist. You have killer grades. Enchantée. Bonjour, Cosima. I'm so glad you could come. Love me, love me, say that you love me; fool me, fool me, go on and fool me. Did you just say a jogging? I'm gonna get you so baked one day. It's really nice to make a friend in this brave new world. I'm kind of always late, so, kind of always sorry. Yes, I am the cold turkey asshle. Don't you think it's time we admit what this is really about? You know, it's really nice to have some who gets it -- who gets me. Yeah, ditto, obvs. I can't stop thinking about that kiss. Like, in a not bad way? I have never thought about bisexuality. I mean, for myself, you know? But, as a scientist, I know that sexuality, is a spectrum. But you know, social biases they codify attraction. It's contrary to the biological facts. That's oddly romantic. Totally encouraging. You're going to be a craven addict. I think I already am. Promise me Cosima's safe. I was wondering if I could come over later? Bonsoir ma chérie. I'm so stupid. No, no you're not -- you knew this all along. I knew it was bullsht, but I still thought you were on my side. I wanted to trust you. You can trust me. Listen to me, I had to do it! He says you're in danger. Delphine, you can use me, that's fine, but don't go near that little girl. I didn't, and I won't! Listen to me, please, just listen: I didn't want to fall for you. I wasn't supposed to. But I have. How can I possibly believe that, Delphine? Because you feel it. This is not a lie -- it's not possible. Si l’on me perd, sache que je serai la tienne; if they lose me, know that I'll be yours. Why I are you here? Because I ... I'm on your side now. Please believe me. You have to trust someone. I know your code number. You do? Yes, I saw it many times. It's 324B21. Hey, I'm sorry. I'm sick, Delphine. fans. http://68.media.tumblr.com/e1a63d7eb...qx19o4_250.gif http://66.media.tumblr.com/be3ad86fb...qx19o6_250.gif http://68.media.tumblr.com/1cfd6303f...qx19o9_250.gif x

love the title :sigh: :love: |
Thanks for the lovely new thread!
The flashback to the end of S1 was so beautiful. I loved hearing Delphine articulate what she loves about Cosima, and OMG Ebro brought so much passion to those scenes. I'm also glad if the writers feel they've finally resolved the "question" of Delphine's loyalty, although I hardly thought it was necessary at this point. I have to admit I was a little disappointed in Cosima's side of things, though. We heard so movingly what Delphine loves about Cos, but what about the other way around? I want to hear Cosima say why she loves D, praise what she admires in her, THANK HER for once for risking her career, her ambitions, her very life for Cosima and all her sisters. Delphine deserves more than just acceptance. |
Tftnt!! :sigh:

Legit I love this parallel so much for some reason:
https://68.media.tumblr.com/f5149e19...uioo10_400.gif https://68.media.tumblr.com/03a766a1...zuioo7_400.gif x Truffles is EXACTLY what I was thinking when Delphine entered the yurt. :lol: Oh Delphine. |
I'm rewatching episode 5 and I think my favorite thing is Delphine's look of wonder and joy when Cosima's shirt comes off in the otherwise super-serious S1 flashback.

Lol, I thought of that very same moment during the scene. And Cosima sucked at welcoming her home, as usual :lol:

Ju, oh man I'm sorry you were disappointed by it. :( I didn't really go in with any expectations and I loved the 1x10 scene. The only thing I didn't care for was the "consent" resolution (whilst I don't fully agree with this post, it still raises a valid point) and on a shallow note, the editing during the second kiss; which I really would have liked to have seen in it's entirety because omg. :thud:

it's all fine and dandy to say "well delphine has kept stuff from cosima" while ignoring that they are all literally in life or death situations and delphine telling cosima everything could endanger cosima/her sisters/kira/whoever. i mean, i don't see people bitching constantly that mrs s kept stuff from sarah or that sarah's kept stuff from kira. hell, i haven't even heard anyone complain about delphine specifically asking mrs s NOT to tell sarah about stuff and mrs s agreeing! what about how they've kept stuff from alison? i guess that's fine but this isn't?? cosima has had plenty of say in their relationship, and in her own life, so let's not. oh and let's not forget cosima kept plenty of stuff from delphine in s3. so.

I liked that Delphine and Cosima actually had a whole romantic conversation that ended in consent. That never happens on TV (outside the soapy "are you sure" conversations I really dislike) and often doesn't even happen in real life. There can be no assumptions here anymore; Delphine asked explicitly for what she wanted and got a "yes." I think that was a big part of the point. Given the job she does and the position they're both in, Delphine has to make decisions that sometimes subvert Cosima's autonomy. Some questions that brings up are...Is that ever OK? Can Cosima agree to that? Is relinquishing control worth it to her, or does her need for control trump her desire for Delphine? Where do Cosima's needs end and Delphine's begin? Is that a hard line, or is it fuzzy? I think it's noteworthy too how this plays out when it's two women vs. a man/woman. I suspect I'd be A LOT less accepting here if Delphine were a man because I'd inherently view this as the woman (again) subverting her choices for the man. But because it's two women, they fill a truly equal space, and I (we...the audience) can view the questions without a lot of baggage. For me, that's super interesting too. |

I agree with you that Cosima's mistrust early in this episode was sad. I thought that in the first ep too when Delphine comes into the yurt clearly happy and so relieved to see Cosima, and Cosima doesn't gush about how much she's missed her; she just accuses, "I thought you were dead." I get why Cosima has been suspicious, and I love Cosima as much as anyone, but she's treated Delphine badly many times over the run of the show. Is Delphine being taken advantage of, or is she very forgiving and understanding? I think it's the latter and that she feels guilty for lying to Cosima at the beginning. But Cosima being mean to Delphine and not trusting her is totally in character. That's part of who Cosima is, and grudge-holding is probably one of Cosima's flaws. I really liked Delphine being irritated when Cosima gave her crap about not telling her about Kira immediately. It's like...right, Cosima. Slow your roll. She's been back for five minutes and there's a ton of stuff to say! |
