  1. Summary

    Cassian : (re Luthen) “…tell him he needs to forget all about me. And that goes for everybody.”

    Bix: “ I’ve done it before.”

     

    I'm fascinated by the relationship between Cassian and Bix, as it's both more complicated and more unusual than first meets the eye. They're basically the 'lovers to friends' trope - but there's so much more to it than that. They were childhood friends. Bix is a kind of surrogate sister figure. 'Word of God' (see notes) is that they tried to be a couple multiple times, that they were 'meant to be together'.

    This series starts with a fictionalised analysis of their goodbye scene in episode 7, and from there goes back in time to look at why they were first drawn together romantically, how Cassian's trauma impacted their relationship, how and why they first broke up, how they maintained their close friendship, how and why they got back together again … and how and why the romance part ultimately ended.

  2. Summary

    Character snapshots from every episode of Andor season 1. I kept strictly to the “drabble” 100 words count and enjoyed the challenge of trying to capture the characterisations in the series. And in honour of Kino Loy there are “Never more than twelve” in each episode.
