First off: your icon. I cannot handle the cuteness.
SO MUCH ADORABLE IN THERE.
...I'm glad we didn't see that S2. That would've been boring. Also a bit unOlivia.
I can't remember if they actually said that Olivia broke herself out and crossed back over or if it's just something I made up in my head, but I'm going with it.
Oh no, did I miss some exposition somewhere? Perhaps in the piles and piles of amber!infodump? Curse you, writers, for assuming I want to think when I watch tv!
It was during "One Night in October," when Walter was infodumping to AmberLincoln about the Machine and the other side. The transcript just has it as "for weeks," though, so maybe I misheard.
But she did seem to have a tricky time of it, prodding the Bishops toward the machine part she needed.
Hmmm, perhaps, perhaps. Assuming I even heard it correctly, anyway. (But I feel like any longer than two weeks is pushing believability for Ourlivia not breaking herself out of Walternate's prison, so I'm gonna go with it.)
And maybe Red!Faux took the extra time because she felt she needed longer to insinuate herself and get cozy? Because Amber!Faux had no close relationships to worm her way into?
AWWWWW! AWWWWW! AWWWWW! It's probably true! Nina's in NYC, Rachel and Ella are in Chicago...
(I like how your headcanon gives Amberlivia a nicer childhood, because at least then the poor girl has some advantage.
Yeah, without that, the Amberverse is DEAD TO ME. (Well, that and Astrid getting more to do. But NOTHING ELSE.)
Ps forgot to ask: when did Blue!livia's mother die? When Olivia was 15? And Rachel is the younger sister, yes?)
In "Olivia," Olivia says she was fourteen when her mother died. I figured it was probably similar for Amberverse. I don't think the show has ever said specifically which of the two sisters is older, but OBVIOUSLY it's Olivia, I mean REALLY. She has "martyred older sister" written all over her. ;)
Maybe just as a mass balance for when Fauxlivia went back to Pinkverse?
Assuming Olivia didn't break her own self out of prison, this makes considerable sense...
(Okay, I am somewhat disturbed that I even managed to think of this, but...you know that experiment some crackpot doctor did about a hundred years ago, weighing people right before and right after they died to measure the weight of the soul? Can't you just imagine Brandonate deciding it would be grand to try and prove it by killing Ourlivia before they used her for the mass exchange, and setting various small objects next to her to see if any of them were pulled into the other universe?)
You could almost call them the Dunham trio, since Olivia is the unofficial leader.
YES! Peter should change his name when they get married! *g*
But yes, they are an awesome family, and they need to remember that, stat!
