Warning, I am about to go overboard about Days of our Lives.

YOU GUYS. LUCAS IS BACK. HE'S BACK AND HE WENT STRAIGHT TO SAMI AND THEY'RE TALKING AND BEING HONEST AND BANTERING AND HUGGING AND SAYING THEY LOVE EACH OTHER. IN THE SWEETEST WE'VE-FINALLY-LOOPED-BACK-AROUND-TO-BEING-BEST-FRIENDS-AFTER-ALL-THE-SHIT-WE-PUT-EACH-OTHER-THROUGH WAY.



THIS IS BASICALLY MY REACTION:


(And not because I just chloroformed someone.)

I CAN'T EVEN PROCESS THIS YOU GUYS. I just...it's hard to explain if you've never fallen in love with a soap couple. I've been shipping these characters since 1997. That's literally half my life. It's close to half of *their* lives. Soaps have a lot of issues (shit, I haven't even watched Days regularly since 2004 because I couldn't stand it), but they are unrivaled in the amount of history that can be brought to a single scene, just because their characters have been on for *so long*-- it's amazing.

I honestly thought I had this out of my system. Like I said, I haven't even watched since 2004. But then I watched today's show (and Monday's, since they air a day ahead in Canada and the Canadians are a kind and generous people) and I wanted to hop up and down with how excited and happy and thrilled I was. Seriously, in just these two days, we've gotten more than we used to get in *years.*

So basically, HEARTS. HEARTS IN MY EYES.

They make me smile too! I seriously giggled out loud a couple of times. (Especially when Kate showed up at the pub and she was all agog at the two of them and Lumi instantly started screwing with her, as if they'd never been apart. I burst out laughing when Sami was all "You know, because of Rafe" with her faux-genuine expression.) They are *so* comfortable with each other, and so genuinely happy at being in scenes with each other again. They totally outclassed all the other storylines this last week. :D

I was never into Brady and Chloe, but I really liked Mike and Carrie. It made me not hate Carrie! Alas, not happening. Carrie is apparently going to be with cardboard-cutout Rafe for the next while.
