#CBStrike #THM Chpt.31
Listen, let's be real
we're All scared of #Robin but if this mf doesn't get it together
#CBStrike #THM Chpt.31
most unwillingly...? I feel like these 2words in the context of the sentence/series could be debated intensely & maybe endlessly the self described pedant is practicing his opening line to #Robin? YES! And How after all this time Mr. Always B Prepared doesn't have a plan BCDE?
#CBStrike #THM Chpt.31
I have begrudgingly awaited a conversation in which #Strike declares his love to #Robin to her face in her presence while she's conscious and now something is going to happen, but we don't even get written description of #Strike's original plan to declare his love
#CBStrike #THM Chpt.31
I don't know the current timeline but #Strike is going 2'force the discussion' with #Robin during their in-person meeting on dec22 imo problematic framing
but this beggar Can Not be a chooser
It wouldn't be the way he'd planned it.
Whaa
It wouldn't be the way he'd planned it
#CBStrike #THM Chpt.31
What part of wanting to keep on #Robin's good side is calling her a soft target right after discussing her ra pe?!?!
Now would be the time for #Strike to say something to #Robin about love.
I don't think #Strike barely got away with this - insane
#CBStrike #THM Part3 Chpt.31
keen to keep on #Robin's right side? How about keen on keeping #Robin safe or having a conversation w/her about your thoughts feelings AND concerns. imo every single moment that #Strike hasn't clearly/specifically told #Robin he loves her ex-cetera is cruel & weird
#CBStrike #THM Chpt.30
How #Ellacott is handling this burger with albie is impressive
i agree that he knows more than he's telling #Robin
#CBStrike #THM Chpt.29
where did #Robin go for all those hours she was waiting for albie? in the brittle cold wet night
was she just disassociating at a nearby coffee shop?
#CBStrike #THM Chpt.29
just be vigilant? #Robin has been followed for hours? just got grabbed/cho ked by a man who forced a toy plastic gorilla into her hand which symbolized the man who ra ped her while she was in the middle of harrods during the holiday season and #Strike says, 'just be vigilant'
#CBStrike #THM Chpt. 29
small victories: #Robin told #Strike what happened and what it means #Strike told #Robin it wasn't a coincidence
these are the crumbs of breadcrumbs
#CBStrike #THM Chpt.29
#Strike "D'you want me to come and pick you up afterwards?"pg.236
MF if you don't Already have your keysphonewallet in your MF hand heading towards #Robin this instant in a taxicabuberlyft &have eyes on her back until she is asleep
Why isn't he with her? Now!
#CBStrike #THM
The choke ing in broad daylight and the tiny toy gorilla is bone chilling cruel macabre
#CBStrike #THM chpt.29
#Robin is violet ently attacked inside a heavily populated historic public place of business during the day &
nobody saw what happened #Robin's reaction is partly 2track them herself knowing how much work/pain it's going 2be 2tell anyone & knowing you have to pretend 4others
#CBStrike #THM chpt.29
pg. 234 Since leaving the cult, #Robin found no enjoyment in finding herself in a mass of bodies, especially in windowless spaces
same Girl
#CBStrike #THM chpt.29
at first #Robins quest to find albie in harrods during the winter holiday sounded farfetched but then I remembered Malls and my teenage/young adult self
and recognized
#CBStrike #THM
Chpt.28 is only leaving me with questions about what plan #Strike has for his life if #Robin says No but then I remember this man Hasn't Even Said Anything For Real to #Robin and that is a Problem

#CBStrike
And Who sent #Robin the flowers? I'm convinced it wasn't DA matthew
And What is #Strike? according 2Charlotte?
beside the claims we already know
And What can never happen again?
mostly, how do you go from taking down an international cult w/no significant mention currently?
#CBStrike #THM
LR failed the mot? Did it really though? I want it returned back to #Robin in its original state and inspected by someone else
I like #Strike's proposition of buying another LR honestly, but I low key thought he might do a Luke style car renovation as a Christmas gift
#CBStrike #THM chpt.28
I'm wrong. Apparently, #Strike did need a pretext to call bc #Robin asks his reason for calling
Different culture
#CBStrike #THM
Chpt.28
'Having a pretext to call #Robin, he did so, because..." imo
this is an example of reading false 2me
I don't get it. #Strike&Ellacott are partners in the most successful detective agency in london and most importantly declared BFF's why does he need a pretext?
#CBStrike #THM
I don't know if it's cultural and/or just in this book with these characters but I'm never going to get over hanging up the phone in someone's face or walking out a room/door without saying anything
