David McCallum, Ducky, was the glue of NCIS. Period. You knew you were in good hands when he was on screen and it was almost comforting seeing him.
You knew he cared about the audience and we felt every bit of it for all those years❤️❤️
Lives were changed when it was confirmed and made canon that Olivia Benson is the “one true love of his life”❤️❤️
soooo yeah they should finally make out
what’s insane to me is after he says “it will always be you and I”, he’s completely clear eyed, looking straight at her. He needed her to KNOW that after 10 years away and Kathy manipulating that letter, it was and will ALWAYS be them🫠
“She has pictures of ME?!”
“I do and many!”
Jordan is so real cuz I would’ve lost it. It’s such a sweet interaction between them all I can’t handle it🥹❤️
This woman was ready to go all the way at with this man and all he could do was drink himself blind and talk about about in love he is with Olivia Benson…
the serotonin and excitement we all had when this happened was top tier
WHEN I TELL YOU THIS HAS INCLUDED EVERY ESSENTIAL SCENE AND EVEN ONES THAT US FANDOM BITCHES WOULD INCLUDE BECAUSE DETAILSSSS
WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING
I will NEVER get over how beautiful this scene was, how healing this was for Olivia, and how much this paid tribute to Olivia Benson’s impact for 25 seasons❤️
@mehdirhasan
Just got into an argument with my Dad about it… I can’t even necessarily blame him because what is he supposed to think when every damn network is basically reporting the same thing?😔
*Attention*
@Chris_Meloni
is killing it on all cylinders on OC, everyone on the show deserves so much credit! The pressure/expectations after 10 years away were high, Chris has exceeded them in more ways than fans can express. Thanks again for coming back Chris😊
Ok carry on✨
i think i’m still sick to my stomach that he was the person she first thought during and after when she came out of that hell she was looking around for him god
When she says “I sure as hell am gonna try” to her “lead you to happiness Liv” I realized his response “me too… partner” could be interpreted as HE is going to try and lead HER to that happiness- but he’s letting her decide when she’s ready
ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME
EXACTLY
He knows she’s scared and not ready. If he pursued more, it might make her close off more. They are on the most solid ground they’ve ever been since he’s been back. He’s putting the ball in her court. Elliot’s finally putting HER first and not being selfish.
my initial reaction to this was disappointment but the second and third time I watched it through I do feel like Elliot just keeps sensing she’s not ready to get there yet, but knows she wants to be, he’s giving her a little bit of direction to get there
Sorry the way you can see Chris look towards M on his screen as he takes the video when she starts dancing and has THAT smile on his face?!? Where’s the cliff
The man drove over 5 HOURS(yes I looked it up) to get to her. You know he didn’t stop for red lights (iykyk) and the heavy breathing?!?!?
“I should’ve come back sooner” and the way his fingers press tighter to her back?!?
FUCKING PURE DEVOTION.
This moment continues to make laugh and scream at the way it’s so domestic and 1.0 coded- Elliot being his typical nosy self and her being like “STOP” but also not minding either because it’s him🤣🥹
“How long have you guys been working together?”
M: “Well 24 years”
C: *Babe he’s talking about working* “So it’ll be 14 yeah”
M: *oh yeah oops* “I mean first 12 and then two more- 14”
Emmys night still continues to be a gift🔥🔥
I just need to know how they get to this point... this is the most vulnerable and open I've ever seen Liv EVER. Even the few she's kissed over the years, this is FAR more intimate than any of those. I've waited over half my life for this, I'm ready to be destroyed
It's these little moments where the camera goes to him to make a point that he KNOWS the way those comments may affect her and he always had her back🥹
Look away I'm emotional. Apologies for the video quality, couldn't find a clip so I recorded it myself...
Also can we just appreciate the growth and OPENNESS of Olivia telling Elliot “I haven’t taken it off since you gave it to me”
like are you kidding me?!? That is insanely vulnerable for her to admit that to him FUCKKKK
the way he's holding her hand and the other is on her waist- he literally needed to be touching her, reassuring himself that she was ok and that he didn't lose her but he still had to try and respect her boundaries because I'm sure he would've preferred to hold her🫠
BYEEE
The story she told about when she turned 34 and how she thought she would end up just like her Mom/Grandfather... WOW. When she got to the part where said, "that's when my life began"
Keep in mind she turned 34 in '98 and she got SVU in '99, everything really changed for her🥹
