Obsessed with Call Me By Your Name. So yeah, what you'll find here is anything about the book, the movie and those people who made that wonderful movie. Plus, currently deep in RPS so if you mind, please do not follow me.This is my side blog, @timelosser is the main one.
I just found out that they play Mystery of Love in one episode of Sex Education (S2E7), and I was SO surprised. After two years, I still recognized it immediately when the intro was played, or you can say when the first few notes was played lol.
And it really felt... strange when I heard it being played in somewhere that’s not CMBYN or CMBYN related. Hearing it and seeing some scenes that weren’t in CMBYN gave me an incongruous feeling, like the song isn’t belonged. Like it’s misplaced, out of place, I was in some weird place that I suddenly got pulled out of the plots and characters in the show, then all the CMBYN related stuff flew into my mind and took over. Which is surprising and yet not really surprising. Even though I’m kind of half out of the fandom now, but I guess what CMBYN and the golden CMBYN era of this fandom left with me still stay. And I just felt weirdly emotional about this experience. And maybe nostalgic.
Ps. Sex Education is a great show, even though this Mystery of Love thing happened, and I weirdly can’t deal with that fact that they used that song lol.
So one of my YouTube recommendations popped up yesterday, and it happened to be a Find Me review, so yeah I watched it and then another review, now I have some really mixed feelings about it...
I still don’t know if I want to read Find Me. I’ve seen some reviews about it, and someone has said something that makes me kinda inclined to not read it.
He said that the book feels somehow disjointed to him, all the characters feels like they have nothing to do with each other, and more importantly, he feels like the book doesn’t give the readers any disclosures that most people wanted. He said CMBYN is great and left you at a place that you can interpret the ending whatever you like and there are many possibilities, but now you know what happened to these characters over those years they spent apart, yet still there’s no disclosure of any sort, it seems that CMBYN doesn’t really need a sequel, like you don’t have to know what would happen to Scarlet after the ending of Gone with the Wind. And he’s not the only one who brings up the Gone with the Wind ending while reviewing Find Me, and they said the exact same thing about it lol.
He also said that if you take each character, even the additional characters who are newly introduced in Find Me, separately, and tell the stories separately, it would make more sense and you’d get more characters’ exploring and where they’re going in their lives, which sounds kinda like my reading experience with Enigma Variations, and I wouldn’t say I’m a fan of that book... Even though the reviews I’ve seen all say Find Me isn’t bad at all, it’s actually good/okay, but some say they like it but others don’t know if the sequel is necessary.
Anyway, it feels to me that my worst fear about the sequel has been confirmed, that it might ruin the experience CMBYN gave me. To me, CMBYN has the perfect balance of telling the readers enough informations and leaving a lot of blanks, only shows the readers what the passing of time could do to people, and those blanks let all the feelings and emotions to work perfectly, which is probably why CMBYN hit me so hard. And I’m just afraid I would lose that if I read Find Me.
I guess the only reason I consider reading Find Me is that I want to experience those intense feelings CMBYN brought, both the book and the movie, or maybe it’s just nostalgia, that I want to grasp at whatever remains of the Golden CMBYN era. But well, maybe I would change my mind if the book comes out in a few days and more people have read it and actually think it’s a great sequel. I just have some feelings after seeing reviews on Find Me and have to vent a bit. And omg still I’m really conflicted about whether I should read it or not ughhhhh—
I hope your inspiration would come in a VERY near future. And yeah I just want it recommend this fic so I’m reblogging this lol:
I will come back for you by nightfall_in_winter
CH.1 Medieval AU. Armie is a noble crusader and Timmy begs on the streets of Constantinople...
CH.2 The tragic and volatile love story of Verlaine and Rimbaud retold by A&T.
I don't know if that's something you are interested in,but I'm guessing you'd be engrossed in stories revolving around the lives of the young romantics (and the relationship between Persy Shelley and Lord Byron is a very intriguing one)or the pre raphaeiltes or the bloomsbury group and I definitely see you drawing inspiration from them and coming up with amazing stories yourself
Anything that involves mythology, history, Romanticism, decadent poetry and love stronger than life and scarier than death is actually MY LIFE. :) Thank you for believing that I can re-invent these inspiring (and often tragic) stories, it really means a lot to me. I just need to find the right inspiration source where I can actually match these characters with A&T’s faces and parts of their personalities…
I will never forget the joy of Armie that day when Timmy was at his show after months away. The quick autographs, the smiles, the hat he had never worn until that moment... who knows the infinite joy he will feel when he can hug his baby again after Dune
A friend of mine sent me this video and sadly she doesn’t remember from where she saw it! and I wanted you Guys to see it. so PLEASE anyone knows the owner/maker please please tell me so I could put their name on it. Thank you so much and enjoy <3 <3

Be patient people, whenever they were apart or disappeared for too long, there would be some crazy Charmie things happening at some point that freak everyone out. So maybe just keep waiting?
Where the fuck is Armie??? I know probably in Montreal but it’s all sooo quiet. When he was filming there before it was constant picture and stories and fan pictures. Even pap pictures. Now it’s all dead
Armie, babe, your fans are worried. Be a good boy and send us a tree like Timmy did. 🙏♥
