black sails anniversary appreciation week - day seven: free choice ↬ quotes i still think about every day (pt.2)

She was not the first.

I hated Malia at first. Her relationship with stiles felt soo forced and unnecessary. As if they just wanted to silence fans by putting them together. That completely devalued Malia's story.

However, that season when Theo arrived, she got an independent storyline and became an actual character. Loved her so much after that season.

Hot Take: Hayden wasn’t actually horrible, the writers just ruined her entire character by making “Liam’s girlfriend” her whole personality instead of letting her be the cool, strong, independent woman she started out as.

I did listen, once. Let a hedgehog into my court. It got me Pavetta dead. I won’t lose Ciri too.

Under-rated ST characters: Guinan from TNG

[bethra]

When I say “I miss old Star Trek” please understand that I miss the formula.

I miss genre hopping. Going from a western to a thriller to action adventure and telling different stories over the season instead of the same long one. I miss captain’s logs and star dates that give some grounding and exposition. I miss bridge battle scenes reporting “shields at 47%!” and sparks flying from consoles. I miss having a cast of 7, 8 or 9 regulars, most of whom head up a particular department in fairly clearly defined roles.

What I DO NOT miss is the dominance of heterosexual white men, in front of and behind the scenes. I do not miss a gender ratio of 2 to 1 male to female on screen. I do not miss 4 out of 5 leads being men, nor 4 out of 5 being white. I do not miss the complete absence of LGBTQA people. I do not miss skin tight cat suits on women characters. I do not miss these things at all, and I’m glad they’re gone.

I want that stuff from the first paragraph, from “old Trek” combined with the representation and diversity in front of and behind the cameras of “new Trek”. I want the best of both worlds.

        “Your fight is over.”       “Like hell it is.”

[Caption: gifset of Murphy, Echo, Raven, Emori, and Octavia. On the left each has a scene where they expressed their will to survive (Murphy’s “I told you I’d survive” to Pike; Echo’s “Hesitation is death.” to Ryker; Raven’s “I don’t choose pain, I choose life” to her hallucinations of Sinclair and Becca; Emori’s “[He’s] someone other than me who’s going into that oven.” during the nightblood experiments; and Octavia replying to Pike’s question about the key to survival on Earth with “Not dying?”), which said quote accompaning both rows of gifs. On the right, there’s an image of each of them at the very end of the show, alive.]
