"The Diamond of the Day" Part 1

uy there. Sixty-three down and two to go. Now who sinabi that? Oh, yeah, it was Bradley James earlier this week I think. I’m really not sure how I’m feeling about this. I should be super sad, but for some reason I’m not. Not sure why. Speaking for myself, I think I’ve invested far too much time and emotion into this. It’s a tv ipakita and while it’s been somewhat of a “hobby” in my case there have been times it’s been somewhat a stress on the blood pressure and I’m speaking seriously. But on the other hand, there’s my main reason for watching: Arwen. To be very honest, It’s the most that I’ve ever loved a couple on screen. Ever. And the satisfaction we’ve all had from watching their lovely chemistry has been worth it all, agreed? We have paborito scenes, paborito gifs, paborito captures on photo, and so on. We have their lovely theme music to remind us of their moments. Someone even wrote on here the other araw asking about the sheet music for it because their daughter and future son-in-law wanted to use it in their wedding. That’s our Arwen. That how special they are.

One of my paborito scenes is the one from 3x02 when she came to his room at a particularly difficult time in his life. You know. The one where she was about to distract him from what his attention needed to be on and she had the wisdom to leave quickly. I remember one comment that stuck with me on the You Tube thread for the video of that scene:

“"Worry is not a wise council." I pag-ibig pag-ibig pag-ibig this scene. It's so rare and refreshing to see this traditional kind of courtly pag-ibig portrayed on modern TV, and it's amazing just how these two can make even handholding something incredibly intense. Their scenes remind me of Aragorn/Arwen in Lord of the Rings, another one of my all time favourite couples]. [tararaboomdia0101]

That’s how I feel about them. That’s why I think they have captured the hearts of so many, and maybe even why they’ve generated a level of hate. And then this comment I just discovered today at the same video (these people have expressed my puso way better than I can do myself):

“That moment when he placed his hand on hers and they were looking into each others eyes was very intense. I could almost feel the gravity pulling them together and the music was perfect.
I don't care what anyone says, I have never seen this much natural chemistry between any other TV couple. Arwen has set the bar very high. Everything about this couple is beautiful. When a couple makes me want to fall in pag-ibig they are doing something right. “[1untoldlove]

What madami can I say? This is Arwen. We won’t get much madami new from them probably, but we have so much here on this site that we can feast on from time to time for years to come. It’s going to be over and things will slowly die down here. It’s inevitable. But I don’t think I’m the only one who after that happens, and we’ve gone on with other things, there’ll be times we’ll come back to this place to look at a certain video and what the faithful ones had to say, or look at that picture that made the place explode, or read the really funny threads that had us holding our stomachs from laughter, or some other thing to remind us of what we had here. The fanfics will stay, and hopefully madami will be added, and HOPEFULLY there will be info on the two people who we pag-ibig even madami than Arthur and Gwen—the two delightful actors who made them real to us. So for sure THIS PLACE WILL NOT DIE.

I’m doing my little reflections here as we go into the last two episodes, but I’ll do a separate thread for episode 13; I just won’t say much on that one. I’ve enjoyed Arwen partying with you guys. I appreciate each and every one of you and how we can come here with our different perspectives, but have that common bond. How we respect each others opinions, even if they are different from ours. How we hold each other up and cheer each other on. This place has been as exceptional as our couple is! It’s been great!

Now on to episode 12... But if you have any reflections beforehand, we all sure would pag-ibig to hear them. Otherwise, come here after as usual.

From your hopeless romantic [and don’t apologize a minuto for it],
