Being Erica
Shiny new fandom. Shiny new ship. Yay! This is what I was doing when I was supposed to be preparing that German exam. Ok so yes, it's a Canadian time-traveling show and holy crap I did not expect to love it so freaking much. I gotta start paying attention to Canadian TV...
And you know, I was blissfully ship-less for the whole first season, but nope, they had to change that in S2. This close, people, this freaking close to have a completely non shippy show argh! But what can I say. You can't add a "damaged rockstar from the future" and not expect me to ship... And note to self: I gotta stop shipping pairings that are doomed from the start. I'm not very optimistic about them, I don't even know if he'll be back next season, so I decided to stick to my fanon version: 2019!Kai will at least try to find Erica or I guess Erica could always try to go after 2009!Kai, but it's not really her Kai, so... And no, I'm not really digging the "Erica becomes a therapist and he's her patient" idea. See? One doomed ship.
aren't you tired of running
from what you're becoming?
the truth is it's useless,
there's nowhere to go,
it's not going to find you.
so let the heavens flare
and let's not be scared.
I think I know what you were doing.
Because I do it, too.
Ok, we can't talk about therapy.
Singing is a non starter...
What can we talk about? Latte art?
I have been with Kai, my 22-year-old friend.
He can sing and as Mary would say he's richeous.
I wanted to see what it would be like.
And so did you.
This secret that we have, this weird thing that we share? It's dangerous.
You're the only person I can talk to about this huge part of my life.
And I need that.
My God, what happened to you?
If the Kai I knew back then could see you now...
2019 will have some seriously bad wigs hairstyles...
You haven't changed at all.
You're still the same guy you'll be 10 years from now.
Be honest, Erica.
Are you angry or are you jealous?
I can't keep living in denial.
So yes, you were right. I was jealous.
And I do have feelings for you, Kai.
Will I remember everything? Will I remember you?
Obligatory finale scene *sniffles*
