There’s always time for romance
🧡
Sorry for jumping on your post like this @myobsessionsspace I love the romance of this scene. I'm so glad that they get to have this. That they get to sit side-by-side and enjoy each other's company while sharing a meal together.
Remember this:
When the Claimers got the jump on them? It was such a gut wrenching, brutal episode. But for a brief moment, Rick and Michonne sat side-by-side and enjoyed that meagre meal. Rick even mentioned how all they spoke about anymore was food. How that highlighted his desire to sit with Michonne and just talk about anything and everything. Even them getting caught out like that, sitting beside one another instead of across from one another, spoke volumes about wanting to be near one another. To close that distance. To relish in the moment. That pull and attraction was too strong for them not to. It was a poor choice for two hardened survivors who knew it would have been smarter to sit facing one another for safety reasons. But there was always this need to be close, even before they fell in love and got together.
I don't know. I just loved that scene from TOWL. It was such a lovely moment amongst other lovely moments because I was reminded of the other scene back in season 4. Everything they've been through, all of the pain and horror, makes the scenes from TOWL even sweeter. They deserve it.
