ok but we REALLY need to talk about the apples scene. as we know, apples are a theme throughout goncharov (not as much as clocks, but still prevalent) and their significance is so cemented through the scene in the market. the scene is about discovery, for all of the main characters; for goncharov, the truth about his father, and for katya, the significance of her deep-held feelings for sofia. the apple in christian canon is representative of all knowledge of the world that rips you from paradise: eve and adam eat of it, and they suddenly know the difference between right and wrong, they realize that they are naked, and once they have clothed themselves, once they have realized that they were wrong to eat of the apple to begin with, they are cast from the garden of eden. the realizations in the market scene, the metaphorical bites of the apple, have similar significance to the characters and the plot.
goncharov can never again go through life without knowing the truth about his father; he can't simply go back to what he was doing before. (and to me, this is a major turning point in his relationship with andrey; andrey has brought him a horrible truth, but he's been honest, and he was there for goncharov, and i think that's a wonderful representation of the core of their relationship. it's not sugar sweet, but it's not blind loyalty either, it's something deeper; i know a lot of people don't like calling their relationship homoerotic but i think it would be silly not to acknowledge the depth of emotion between them, whatever that emotion might be. their relationship is so deeply meaningful and it pulls at my heart every time.) goncharov leaves the apple market fundamentally changed, and he can no longer continue on as he did before. he has to change something, has to take action, has to depart from his life before; it is pivotal in his understanding of the past and his motivations going forward.
katya, for her part, has several breakthroughs with sofia. first, that she has a closer companion in sofia than she ever realized (oh my GOD when sofia says "if we were these apples, if you fell from the tree, i would fall with you. we would rot together." !!!!!! can you believe they put that in!!!!!), and second, that she has options besides goncharov. i think this is the point in the film where katya becomes a woman who would point a gun at goncharov; she was unhappy in their marriage before, but now she knows he is not all she has. her agency is solidified in her structure of support. i think this is the first moment where she really considers going against him; the first hint at her part in the final betrayal of goncharov. it plants so many seeds (haha) for the rest of the plot. and of COURSE we can't talk about this scene without talking about the classic symbolism of the apple and sin. katya and sofia share an apple, for god's sake. i don't honestly think that was the filmmakers' intention with this scene (katya and sofia's relationship has always suffered from the "they were such good friends!" treatment) but the connotations CANNOT be ignored. they express their love for each other, they share an apple; this is their first honest realization and commitment to a forbidden love. of course they loved each other before but like. you get what i mean. you could definitely put this interpretation onto andrey and goncharov's conversation as well but i don't think it hits quite the same (they're tonally different, in my opinion).
also i HAVE to talk about the cinematography. the cut between goncharov and andrey's conversation to katya and sofia's, showing that they are in the same place but in different worlds; they have both chosen this place to meet someone dear to them, but don't know that the other is there as well; their discoveries are different but both significant. the apple market is the realm of discovery. the apple market is the place where the plot starts to blossom into what it becomes, the point of no return; without the apples, there is none of the rest of the plot. it's literally the seeds of the story!!!!! oh my god. anyway

the way sofia maintains eye contact with katya when she bites into the apple, the way katya gently wipes the juice from sofia's chin and then sucks it off her own thumb...
the way the red of the apples seems oversaturated against the subdued tone of the rest of the film and really draws your attention to the close proximity of their faces as they discuss apples, and eve, and sex, with thinly veiled metaphors.
i swear i had no idea about sex or sexuality or even knew that girls could like girls but when i saw that scene on hbo when i was, like, seven, suddenly i knew i wanted to have sex with women. formational. foundational.

Reading @your-local-charlatan's great meta about the Katya/Sofia apple scene, I was once again reminded of the bit of dialogue right after Sofia take's that bite:
Katya: "Do you like the taste?"
Sofia: "Very much so."
Just, hngg. The look on Katya's face as she asks this question, so knowing, and the way Sofia almost, almost smiles but doesn't in the end, yet her eyes tell you everything you need to know.
Plus the beautiful cinematography, the lighting, the close-ups...
Just A+ filmmaking, so gorgeous.

SKK au where they still have their abilities but Dazai accidentally kissed Chuuya when they first met, knocking Chuuya out of gravity manipulation...
Since then Dazai has lied that his ability is activated by kissing and not by touching and Chuuya has never doubted cause Dazai always go in for the kiss as soon as he grabs Chuuya to nullify his ability.
And Dazai threatened the rest of the PM to not to expose him and they had to suffer skk making out during battle in their mafia era.
Then Dazai left PM and they met again as ADA member and PM executive on battle field and Dazai on instinct grabbed Chuuya for a kiss to nullify corruption.
The rest of the ADA be like: why is Dazai kissing the enemy executive?
PM members: Not this shit again!
And Atsushi would later ask Chuuya shyly why does Dazai kiss him to pull him out of his ability and Chuuya in ultra confusion be like 'Cause that's how his ability works?'
Only to find out that Dazai has been lying to his face the whole damn time...

[enters IMGflip] [emerges 3 hours later with Goncharov (1973) and The Goncharov Trilogy book series memes] Please appreciate what I do for you with nothing more than a vague recollection from reading the books as a teenager and only recently finding out there was an entire movie made from them, apparently.

Ok, so Muppet AU! Every ability user in canon is a muppet, except for Dazai, who nullifies both abilities and the physical state of being a muppet!
Now that that’s established:
Bram is already kind of a muppet, right?
Tumblr media
(Whenever Bram spreads the vampirism, the newly infected muppet just gains a pair of glued-in fangs)
Corruption is just muppet-Chuuya on a string, being swung wildly about like the killer rabbit from Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Imagine you are a muppet for as long as you can remember, and then one weird human pokes you, and suddenly you are also human for the first time alsksjdjf
Oh and the best part of this AU is Ranpo!!! Because if Fukuzawa convinced Ranpo that he had an ability when he was fifteen, then that means that Fukuzawa simultaneously had to convince a human boy that he was a muppet.
And Ranpo believes this for years.
Ranpo, a human man: “Haha, I have the best ability in the agency! >:D”
Atsushi, a tiger-muppet who has just learned how all this works:

I fell in love with @acre-of-wheat’s tanthamore fic Network Connectivity Issues and I recently just got caught up so I had to draw out some of my favorite scenes to fill the void as I anxiously wait for the next chapter🫶🏼
