New headcanon: Smoking didn’t initially appeal to Connor. He only started because Murphy did, and now obviously he can’t stop.

Happy Mother’s Day!

“Fuck,” Connor said, rubbing his eyes with his fists. “Why did we drink so much last night?” He and Murphy stepped out onto the platform in front of the church doors. They each simultaneously pulled a cigarette from their pockets and lit them. “I think I’m still hungover.”

“What’s the matter, huh? Can’t hold your liquor like you used to?” Murphy laughed at his brother’s misfortune.

“Shut it.” Connor and Murphy took long drags from their cigarettes and began walking towards their home. “The monsignor said it’s Mother’s Day.”

“Aye.”

“You know that means we’ll have to give Ma’ a call today.”

“Shit,” Murphy said with a laugh as smoke escaped his mouth. “How much do you think she’s had to drink by now?”

“At three-thirty in the morning? She’s probably still drunk from last night.”

“No, no. Ma’ doesn’t get drunk. She always says she just gets better looking.”

The twins looked at each other for a moment and then burst into laughter.

“Oh Ma’, none like her.”

“Aye,” Connor agreed.

“And if we don’t give her a call, she’ll never tell us.”

“Geeze, don’t even start, you know it’s me.”

Murphy gave his brother a playful shove towards the curb. “You’ve lost it. I’m older.”

“The fuck you are.”

Murphy and Connor flicked their cigarette butts into the street and continued their argument.

Let’s take a mo and appreciate this beautiful relationship between these two brothers. Not only do they look adorable when they’re asleep, they’re also still sleeping in the same room. And I bet there’s hardly ever been a day/night where they didn’t sleep in the same room. They’re 30-something years old and they’ve never lived in seperate houses/apartments/whatever. They’re always together. That guy in the foreground here almost broke his arms and jumped off a 5+ story building to save his brother, and the guy in the background carried him all the way to hospital to get him some help. They need each other so much they can’t possibly be just Connor or just Murphy. It’s always the MacManus twins and that’s what makes the movies so beautiful.

pretty twinsies are pretty.

Pretty indeed *__*

I like looking at stills like these because it just makes me think about these two as brothers… as twins. These two grew up with each other. For twenty-seven years these two were always by each other’s side. They shared every experience together. They are best friends and they will always be there for each other.

They are so worried about their mother that they need each others’ comfort, and reach for each others’ hand, however brief that moment might be.
