For the three people on my flist who are Luke/Reid fans, LOOK! A fanmix! For the rest of you? LOOK! MUSIC!
I really liked todays episode. I think we saw a part of Reid that hasn't been shown that often and the line in particular that jumped out at me was when asked if he made a decision he answered, "Between my calling in life and everything else?" It called back to mind the part where Reid told Luke, "All I am is a doctor. Without it I truly don't have anything else to hold onto."
So yeah, they don't have a relationship as such, but it's clear (to me at least) that Luke is something Reid knows is important. Outside of his 'calling' he considers Luke to be his 'everything else'? *swoon* ♥
And I don't just let those things go, I CLING. I write! I fanmix. ;)
Incubus :: 11 AM And I start my day thinking about what I've thrown away.
Could I push rewind?
The credits traverse, signifying the end
But I missed the best part.
Could we please go back to start?
Forgive my indecision
Then again, Then again, Then again
You're always first when no one's on your side
But, then again, a day will come when I want off that ride.
Reid, holding a pillow, lamenting the fact that he screwed things up but also resenting Luke for not fighting for him the way he fought for Noah.
Dog’s Eye View :: Did You Get Hurt? Now that you're standing
Doesn't mean that you'll fall
Just 'cause you've given everything
Doesn't mean I took it all.
Did you get hurt?
Did you get hurt
Or did you get wise?
Reid's self doubt rearing it's ugly head.
Death Cab for Cutie :: A Lack of Color I'm reaching for the phone
To call at 7:03
And on your machine I slur a plea for you to come home
But I know it's too late
And I should have given you a reason to stay
Has someone written drunken apology from Reid yet? I've not been reading much but lord, that needs to be written.
Blues Traveler :: Just Wait If you think I've given up on you you're crazy
And if you think I don't love you well then you're just wrong
In time you might take to feeling better
Time is the beauty of the road being long
…
I hope for you and cannot stop at hoping
Until that smile has once again returned to you face
There's no such thing as a failure who keeps trying
Coasting to the bottom is the only disgrace
My Luke/Reid song. It fluctuates on the day as to who is directing it at who but today it was all Reid. His face when Luke left, his sound reason and logic when Luke was being a bit of a brat. Yeah, this is Reid to a T.
Ingrid Michaelson :: Die Alone I never thought I could love anyone but myself.
Now I know I can't love anyone but you.
You make me think that maybe I won't die alone.
Maybe I won't die alone.
What have I become?
Something soft and really quite dumb.
Because I've fallen, oh, 'cuz I've fall-fallen, oh 'cuz I've fall-fall-fallen
So far away from the place where I started from.
But all the logic and rules can't change the fact that Reid really was hoping for a future, and is willing to fight for it. (Hopefully.)
Bonus Track ::
Melissa Etheridge :: Weakness in Me You made me lie
When I don't want to
And make someone else some kind of an unknowing fool
And you make make me stay
When I should not
Are you so strong or is all the weakness in me
This one is definitely my song for Luke to Reid. I see his anger fading quickly, and just the sudden realization of everything hitting him like a mac truck. He and Noah are over. Reid's chosen the hospital. His life is falling down around him and the easiest person to blame will be Reid. (Also, not for nothing, but I'd LOVE a fanvid to this. ;))
