“That’s in Scotland”

AoS s03e07 Afterthoughts #4

I’m not British but I think everyone knows how important the difference between Scotland and the rest of UK is (I mean, they were trying to get independent not so long ago). The conflict is old, I’m not a person to explain it, but to the point.

We know that while both Simmons and Fitz are from UK, Simmons is from England and Fitz is from Scotland. And while it might not seem important for people from outside it is clearly important to Fitz. A person’s identity and what they considered their true home, is important. He said “that’s in Scotland” not “so, back in UK”. No. It’s in Scotland. And Scotland is his home.

But apart from Fitz’s view on Scotland and England, independence and United Kingdom, there’s another thing in here. Simmons was talking about how she was wondering about their date. Then she is talking about her dream house where they could settle down. Part of the reason for her choosing this house might be because it was simply lovely, but part could be because of where it was too. She knows Fitz well enough to know that it’s important for him (maybe they had old debates and arguments about it?). He would probably never said it, but she just knows that if he could chose where to live, it would be there. So they’re both British, but Simmons is English, and yet she chooses a place in Scotland, she chooses a place that requires her to move, because this is something she knows Fitz would dream about too. By choosing this place she also chooses him. Again.

Not only she chose the place, she also chose to tell him exactly where it is. She didn’t say “this lovely cottage I saw on trip”. She said Pertshire’s name, because clearly the placement is important. Fitz tells here where it is, because maybe she hadn’t noticed, she was a kid, maybe she doesn’t realise it would require her to move to Scotland (because he’s Fitz, he always downplays her words and doubt their meaning when they could suggest something more about them), but she tells him that she knows exactly where it is. That she chose this.

And Fitz is clearly very happy about it. First, because first comment he makes about her dream of settling down is “it’s in Scotland”. Not “you want to settle down” not “you want this with me”. No, he names the place, his home. He point it to her with a big smile, almost tells her, “Jemma this is in my home”. Look at his little smile after he mentioned Pertshire (the first gif). This is such a pure joy. Jemma smiles back and tells him that she knows. She knows, and that’s her dream. And Fitz looks at her with such a happiness and love.

It just gives me so much hope, because 1) cottage for them 2) in Scotland 3) Jemma still stands by it. Plus, it clearly gives them hope too.

(How long do you think it will take Fitz to buy this cottage? I bet he already checked it)

Aries:

- Extremely motivated, like having a list of things to get done at work

-Optimistic people

-Spontaneous

-go with the flow

- Typically Extroverted, but enjoys time alone too

- On the negative they can be very selfish and compulsive

-Blunt, the tell it like it is and are not shy from the truth

- They are very charismatic

Aries children are often more like their fathers than their mothers, when they are girls, Aries usually grow up as the “tomboy” Aries children love to be noticed for having a brain! They need respect from peers and elders.

Aries have a drive to get what they want, and they will always go after it. This is good because it keeps them balanced.

Taurus:

- Romantic/sensual

- Artistic, innovative and creative, they are easily inspired by people and environments that they are around a lot.

-Sentimental, to the point of hoarding.

-Self-indulgent particularly with money and food.

-Affectionate, the ultimate cuddle buddies <3

- Slow to rely on people, but once they do, they do so heavily.

- They are patient and methodical in their work as well as in others’ work, this makes them great manager-types

- On a negative side they are very self-critical and suffer anxiety because of this.

In childhood Taurus children spend a lot of time alone, and they are usually pretty happy this way. They often dream of having families and living in beautiful places. They have a habit of thinking that they are always in the way.

Taurus can be power hungry and need to watch it sometimes with unconscious manipulative behaviors.

Gemini:

- Quick- minded and creative they are the ultimate story tellers, and great at improv.

- Dramatic and usually outgoing, they love concerts and a lot of Gemini folks love to swim.

- They are curious and tend to look and act younger than they are.

- The most likely sign to have anxiety.

- Charming and Charismatic, they get themselves thrown into leadership positions, even though it is not usually what they want.

- They are open-minded

- They are also typically good with money.

In childhood, Gemini tend to get along with everyone (except that ONE person, if you know what I mean) They are the trouble maker kid who just got a little too excited to jump in on the action. They are clever and likely to pull pranks.

Gemini are one of the most exciting signs to be around and have as a friend.

Cancer:

-Subjective, Cancers are very good at being an uninvolved third party during an argument.

- They are intuitive and are likely to be mediums and/or empaths.

-They are imaginative and are the writers of the Zodiac.

- They are patient and attentive while learning about new things.

- Cancers are the introverts that always find themselves in extroverted situations.

- On the negative side, Cancers can be manipulative, and vengeful, though this is usually only in their thoughts and not reflected in their actions.

- They are sensitive and think of themselves as “average.”

In childhood, Cancers are usually closer to their mothers and don’t always get along with their fathers. They are inquisitive children and question their parents’ decisions on everything, they act much older than they are. Cancer children often find it difficult to sleep.

Cancers are understanding in relationships, however, sometimes they expect too much from their lover.

Leo:

-Romantic, not in the same sensual way as the Taurus friends, but in the grand gesture, pebbles on the windows with a boombox outside kind of romantic.

- Leos are born to be social, but will often convince themselves that they aren’t. Leo’s tend to think that they are quieter than they are.

-Without even realizing it, Leo’s treat life as a sales pitch, and they have to sell you on themselves.

- They are very proud, and one of the most opinionated signs of the zodiac, they love to share their opinions and get into feisty debates, but hate actual arguments.

- Big-spenders.

- They are likely to be obsessive-compulsive, type A personalities.

- In a negative light, Leo’s can be complacent and deal with the hand life gave them instead of trying to change it for the better.

- Leo’s have a big, yet fragile ego.

In childhood, Leos are very demanding. they like things done a certain way, and are not the best at hiding these feelings. They tend to be very talented children with seemingly “normal” childhoods. They are often closer to their mother than their father.

Leo’s like to dress up and present themselves one day, then watch Netflix and wear sweats all day the next. They are complex and exciting signs.

Virgo:

- One of the most mysterious signs, they don’t often show their true emotions, even though they are one of the signs most likely to suffer from emotional disorders like depression or bipolar disorder.

- Hardworking, Virgos think that they can do anything that they work hard for, they like to impress people with the amount of work they do, unfortunately, Virgos often work hard instead of smart, doing a lot more work than they really needed to.

-The above being said, Virgos are incredibly intelligent. They are witty and charming.

- They like everything to be in a specific order and are often afraid of things being dirty.

- They like to debate and persuade others to think the way that they do.

- Virgos are people who often have a wide variety of interests.

In childhood, Virgos were introverts that had a lot expected from them. Virgos tend to grow up feeling unappreciated and underwhelmed with affection from their families and peers. I personally believe that this is what causes their want to keep things orderly.

Out of any of the signs, Virgos are the best teachers. If you need a study partner or a tutor, go to your Virgo friend! They just have a good way of explaining things so that it makes more sense.

Libra:

-As a whole, Libras are very attractive people. They draw others in with a sense of attractiveness both physically and spiritually.

- They are sociable, and likely to get along with everyone they meet. They are the ones that know literally everyone.

- Their downside is that they are incredibly indecisive, they are not right for a position of leadership.

- They are aggressive when it comes to things they care about, and one of those things is equality, so you may see a lot of Libras fighting for social equality.

- Team-workers.

- Libras typically feel like the “ugly-duckling” or the “odd one out” which is mostly in their own heads because they are a very likeable sign.

- Polite.

In childhood, Libras are slightly devious but highly independent. They are curious and like to learn many different skills. Unfortunately, most Libra children are blind to the many talents that they posses, quick learning being one of them.

Libras are surprisingly sexual people.

Scorpio:

Complex thinkers with big imaginations

-Practical, they get shit done

-Passionate, sometimes possessive

-Likely to have psychic inclinations

-On a negative side, they can be insensitive to others

- Intense feelers

-Although many are introverts, they are natural leaders

- They are self-destructive, their own worst enemies

- Typically they are really adventurous, they like to try new things (once they trust it of course, witch they are slow to do.)

-Indulgent in things like drugs, shopping, and food

- Stubborn

Scorpios often have a difficult childhood lacking in emotional support. They have to work harder to get things right than some other signs that get things a bit easier.

They can be jealous lovers, but are totally capable of controlling those jealous urges, and usually do for the fear that they are being too clingy. (even if they aren’t)

Scorpios are really competitive, but they are not frigid and mean, but will do everything they can to win. They aren’t always the most cooperative sign.

Sagittarius:

-High-spirited and free, these friends like to learn and have their freedom whether it be in romance, adventure, or even just creativity.

- Loyal and trustworthy, Sagittarius may not always be there when you need them to be, but when you have their attention, you have their full attention.

- They are very giving people, they love seeing others happy.

- This sign has uncanny good luck. Where did it come from???

-They are charming and incredibly talented, they make good public speakers.

- Sagittarius are very independent and progressive, they typically have talents in art, music, acting, and social skills.

- Philosophy interests them and they like to come up with fresh ideas.

In childhood, these are the kids that asked “why?” about everything. They are curious, free thinkers with a sharp head on their shoulders. They retain information better than most other signs, with the exception of Capricorns. Music comes easy for Sagittarius children.

Sagittarius are likely to indulge in things like drugs, shopping, and food, and they have a sense of emptiness when they do.

Capricorns:

- Nothing describes a Capricorn like the word ambitious. This is the most hardworking, diligent sign. They know where they want to go, they know how to get there, and nothing can get in their way.

-Capricorns have a sturdy inner-self that guides them even when they think that they cannot go anymore.

- They are the most likely sign to suffer from depression.

- Contrary to what many think of Capricorns, they are one of the most full-of-life signs. They work hard, and they like to party just as hard. Capricorns love to entertain.

- They are very sexual people who have the needs of their lover at heart.

- On the negative, Capricorns can get stuck in routine easily, and they hate that about themselves.

-Capricorns are one of the most humorous and talented signs. They are introverts who know how to play the role of an extrovert, and they know how to do it well. They are very charismatic, others want to follow the Capricorn in the room, and Cappys need to keep this in mind and not manipulate others.

In childhood, Capricorns were often expected to live to a standard that was impossible, and that is how Capricorns learned how to achieve the impossible. Capricorn children have a difficult time connecting with others on an emotional level, and are often closer to their fathers than their mothers.

Capricorns are the go-to leaders in an emergency situation. Your wedding was cancelled? Call your Cap friend. Your mom is in the hospital? Call your Cap friend. Your house is on fire, you have a broken arm, and your dog needs to be picked up from the vet all at the same time? Call your Cap friend, they make the impossible, possible.

Aquarius:

- This is the quirky sign, they are full of cool ideas and unique interests.

- They are tense, always on the lookout for people trying to use or hurt them, they are often very lonely, and the most likely to be “only-children”

- They are curious and experimental, they love thinking of, and testing new ideas.

- While Aquarians are not very emotional and loving, they crave emotion and love. They try not to let anyone see it, and often will not admit it to themselves, but it is what they need and want deep down. They need someone that they can rely on that will accept them and their odd, independent ways.

- Even though Aquarians are a little on the strange side (in the best way :) they are the most courteous and polite sign, and are very honest, forthcoming people.

- They have a quick temper and they fear true intimacy (while still craving it)

- These are a proud group of individuals, when they are very talented at something, they know that they are, and they are proud of it. This is a very good quality, but good luck trying to get an Aquarius to apologize.

- Aquarians often have a difficult time figuring out what they want to do in life, but once they find it they are driven and will stop at nothing to see their dreams come true.

In childhood, Aquarians are lonely. They don’t get the attention that they need to thrive. They are typically cast-off by teachers and sometimes peers because they have unique interests. Aquarius children usually are closer to their fathers than their mothers because they are critical.

Aquarians are friendly and once they trust you, they are some of the most loyal friends that you can have. Once they care about you, they would do anything for you, whether it be meet you to talk at 3 am or do six back flips, Aquarians always find a way.

Pisces:

- Pisces do not like conflict, but are usually pretty self-confident, just not assertive.

- They are romantic, just like their Taurus friends, they appreciate simple sensuality and the comforts of home and good cooking.

- While it is true that this is an emotional sign, they are an elastic sign too. They are not weak, they bounce back from anything life could ever throw at them.

- Pisces are very artistic and have a great love of music.

- This is the sign that would rather stay home than go out, they are in love with quiet activities. Don’t mistake them though, they can party.

- This is the most nurturing and self-sacrificing sign, they will do and be everything needed for the people that they love.

-On the negative side of things, Pisces have to be careful, because they like to play the victim, but then wonder why no one thinks they are strong.

In childhood, Pisces tend to feel a sense of guilt because they can see their mothers, who they are close with, not being treated right by their fathers. Pisces children learn that it is ok to settle from their mothers.

Pisces is that friend that will listen to you talk about the same thing for hours on end while feeding you cookie dough. They are reliable and true friends.
