#― ❛ ship ❜ ↬ ben + gabby !

Peter, standing in front of a giant whiteboard with a bunch of sticky notes: Alright people, we can figure this out. Alright, so we know exactly who Laura and I were up until October 20... Starts rambling about the clone saga

Gabby: I'm confused. What's going on?

Ben: Peter is scared of morally being obligated to date Old Laura so he brought us all here to create a sort of 'clone timeline' to figure out who's who and when.

Kaine: I don't see why he is making this a big deal.

Laura: You're not the one who fucked some random stranger thinking he was your boyfriend.

Old Laura: Actually, I'm the one who fucked Kaine... And Peter. Have you had your first time with Peter yet?

Laura: I don't care if you're a thousand years old, I will kill you, find the fucking soul stone and fix this stupid mess.

❝ you have to have one person in your life that you know would never do anything to steer you wrong. ❞

now playing : hear me out by exo.

havia um sorrisinho no canto dos lábios, um pouco amargo - completamente irresistível. tudo que passava pela mente enquanto ele acendia & apagava o isqueiro no salão escuro, de forma despreocupada e inútil, pois a lanterna estava na outra mão, era que TODOS em sua vida tinham o guiado para o caminho errado. os pais, vale, até mesmo a avó compactuou com a coisa terrível que fez ; a única pessoa que o mantinha com um fio de bondade cega e desinteressada guardada no lugar mais próximo do coração era o irmão & desde sua morte, não tinha feito as melhores escolhas - sabia bem disso.

continuou pelo corredor, parando ocasionalmente para plantar as escutas nas obras de arte impagáveis , quais adoraria colocar as mãos. porém, estava ali como acessório do governo dos estados unidos - CLARO, não o impediu de fazer listas mentais de onde cada coisa ficava e como seria fácil usurpar as peças - , mas tentou focar na tarefa em mãos, um leilão para o dispositivo provavelmente iria acontecer ali & eles precisavam de toda a informação possível sobre para quem iria. talvez por isso tenha se assustado com o rumo que a conversa casual dos dois tomou ; não esperava que ela fosse do tipo de dar conselhos, ainda mais não solicitados.

supôs que tinha sua razão no que dizia . seria bom, na versão mais idealista possível do mundo se todos tivessem alguém que os levassem para um lugar melhor do que onde os encontraram, mas não era sua realidade & não pensava que jamais fosse ser. "yeah, everyone on my life steered me wrong." a resposta foi sem rodeios, a entonação da voz amena como se não o fizesse querer arrancar os cabelos simplesmente pensar em contar demais sobre si. "but i still turned out okay." apagou o isqueiro, e o colocou no bolso da calça curvando as costas levemente para plantar a ultima escuta daquela sessão no museu, focando a lanterna no trabalho bem feito antes de tirar do bolso seu pequeno passa tempo, e pegar do chão a bolsa com o resto do equipamento. "so, i guess you just do the best with what you got . not everyone gets a fairy godmother. or a cia agent who wants us to live our best life."

estava prestes a se virar & voltar pra ultima bifurcação, quando tombou a cabeça pro lado, semicerrando os olhos e estalando a língua no céu da boca, antes de deixar um som abafado escapar dos lábios. "we're not friends, though, right ?" finalmente encontrou o olhar da outra, mais um sorriso fraco cheio de desdém. "you made that pretty clear." ao menos, em sua cabeça era esta a verdade dos acontecimentos. "so in the future, you can keep your advice to yourself." mirou a lanterna no rosto dela, e por uma última vez, apagou a chama do isqueiro. "i appreciate it, since i didn't have years to read eat, pray, love," zombou sem malicia real, mas mesmo assim deixando claro que existia entre eles uma linha que ele tinha perdido o interesse em tentar cruzar. "but i'm good." terminou com um levantar do canto dos lábios, ainda pouco genuíno e finalmente deixou ela para trás.

não gostava da maneira desdenhosa com qual reagiu , sabia que gabby era uma boa pessoa & provavelmente tinha as melhores intenções , mas a distância entre eles continuava a crescer de repente, embora tivesse inicialmente pensado que estavam chegando em algum lugar. contudo, mais importante que isto era o medo - o medo de ser honesto. o medo que alguém pudesse ver que por trás de toda a fachada, ele era só alguém cuja a alma nunca cresceu - alguém que ficou parado naquele dia na chuva, entregando a uma estranha o resto de sua vida.

Let's talk about Ben

This dude, he is something coded, and I love it, like I genuinly felt so much like him.

The way he rambles, the way he is damn passionate and how he hates speaking to people except that small group he does like.

Like he literral prefers to deal with the ghost tormenting him, than to talk to one of his neighbours, one of his biggest fears is a bed and breakfast for god's sake, I just love him so much.

Like i genuinly love him, even in the start, where he is clearly in a bad place due to loosing his wife, like even then I identified so much with him.

The way he just tries to ignore everything, the way he denies being in a bad place to others, and may projecting a bit, but it felt like he was also lying to himself.

But even then he continued Alyssa's tours, the thing she loved so much, even if he didn't believe in that.

And the way he grieves, I just love how healthy the portrayed it, and the fact that they didn't resort to make him this aggresive and angry black man, like yeah, he is gruff, but he is still a person who is grieving.

The way they also didn't really force a romance between Ben and Gabbie, because like there is just so much going on, and I don't thing any of them is ready for that, because Ben just started actually procesing his grief and has support for the first time in quite a while after the death of his wife, and Gabbie who also lost her husband a year ago, but also how she is clearly focused on her son at the moment.

I do ship them, but I like the fact that they are clearly giving them time to actually develop a romatinc relationship.

Also the fact that Ben seems to genuinly care for Travis, but not in the "I want to get with your mom" way, but in a genuine way, like he sees Travis as Travis, not just as Gabbie's son.

And it may just be me, but I do feel that the movie in more than one scene, is a sort of alegorie? One of people reaching out to prevent their friend (Ben) from ending his life, because the last soul must be a willing soul, aka someone who willingly takes their life.

And everytime Ben's grief is talked about one character or the other makes sure to reassure him, that it's alright to grieve, and that thye are there for him.

I love this movie a normal ammount, ok?

Gabby is and always has been a flirt. He's witty, he's sexy, he's good fun and he knows all of these things about himself. He's well liked amongst his coworkers and even though some might claim he's a personality hire, he's actually good at his job. Dec is slightly nerdy and awkward having just transferred to the branch of the company closer to his home and he's desperate to make friends and impress people so he makes sure he goes to every staff night out - he's surprised at how many of them end with his colleagues kissing each other, seriously so many of them kiss each other or go home together that Declan is glad he doesn't work in HR. When Gabby kisses his coworkers, it's not as intensely sexual as when Ben does it or as soft as when Martin does it, his kisses are platonic and friendly and don't mean anything else. Declan's the only one who doesn't know this and gets hung up on Gabby the moment that their lips meet for the first time. He makes it his mission to be the only one Gabby wants to kiss after the initial shock and hurt of seeing him kiss someone else fades away. He is advised that he could always ask Gabby out or initiate the kiss if he wanted to but Declan wants to he wooed by Gabby...he just has to woo him into wooing him. This office au concept and just Dec/Gabby in general is so good (Also Dec would wear his glasses a lot which I'm here for) - 💙🤍 KT anon

CRYING

gabby BEATING the personality hire... he's awesome with his expertise lmaooo let's go!

fucking ddiedddddd hell yeah Declan the new guy, grateful he's not HR lmao kinda nerdy and WEARS GLASSES PLSSSSSSSSSSS pls I'm into it

dec being blindsided he thought his nerdy ass is special. WRONG!

you know what fuck I just remember my biggest sin ever; I have never written a Christmas fic, EVER. this scenario... I might. mistletoe... office Christmas party... reasons to get drunk for freeeeee... dec is gabby's secret Santa!!!! lmao wow... check back in with me in a couple of months...

I might slip in some misunderstandings; dec thought gabby is sleeping with big gabi (they're besties) . ofc because I'm me, big gabi is actually having the most cutthroat sexual tension with the tall German from xxx department LOL

alright will u and one other anon all aboard the ship. I'll be there :D

[farfarawaygirl]

Based on the new CF press release, are we thinking Casey’s life altering decision will be to adopt the Dardens? Find a home, move them in and adopt them? And if so, will we see him discuss this with Brett? Because if not, what makes it any different from Gabby’s choice to foster/adopt Louis without his input? And could this be their big obstacle? Bc I want to see Casey as a dad and see him with the Dardens but not at the expense of this solid relationship and if it takes his character back and r

Part 2: Sorry my ask cut off but the rest of the thought was Bc I want to see Casey as a dad and see him with the Dardens but not at the expense of this solid relationship and if it takes his character back and repeating exactly what Dawson did to him.

I was just talking about this with @hamburgerheroes who is my shipping/show loving soulmate!!

I don’t necessarily know/think that Matt will make these decisions unilaterally, I would think it would be more, he and Sylvie have a discussion and she tells him to do whatever he needs to do for the boys. Matt would take them in in a heartbeat - so that would be a forgone conclusion, but it would certainly put a wrench in the works.

Matt hasn’t really had a partner other than Sylvie who considers his needs and wants as if they were their own. We know historically that Matt struggles with letting people in all the way, so maybe he tries to keep Sylvie out of things, and that is where the tension is?

I’m trying to find the words to express the difference between your fiancé planning to foster/adopt without you, and your partner of less than six months taking in kids he has already sheltered, and who are the children on his deceased best friend. There is a huge difference! Also, the age/competency issue here is really different. A toddler is different than two teens. Not that I want Matt to make the choice all on his own, but I understand it.

I also wouldn’t fault Sylvie if something happened and she needed to take in Amelia.

Those lines of complexity add nuance, and make the choices harder and somehow easier.

If Matt Casey was faced with a split second decision about Ben and Griffin, Sylvie would want him to chose to protect those kids. That’s who they are.

It’s different in this context than what happened with Gabby because Matt and Sylvie would understand the need to help a kid. Sylvie is adopted, and was rescued in her adolescence by an aunt who protected her when her mom was unable to do it. Matt grew up in an abusive home, and his mom killed his dad. They would understand the impulse to protect.

I don’t see having the boys around as a big obstacle, but as something that makes Matt and Sylvie need to figure out what they’re doing, and what they want, faster and more accurately.

I don’t think that Matt or Sylvie would steamroll the other in this relationship, they just might not know how to do things with someone who always has their back?

750 Followers Celebration - Q&A

Thank you so much for supporting me through this journey! You guys don't know how much this means to me. Every single one of you is amazing.

Below the cut are my answers to the questions that you all submitted.

Q: Do you think Jay is going to become Sergeant this season? A: There has been a lot of debate over this question because of the past few seasons and all of the "Easter eggs", like the sergeant exam poster hanging in the background of the show. In my opinion, I do not believe Jay will become Sergeant. Yet. I think it won't be until the beginning of next season because, if this is a possible storyline, I would expect that the producers and writers would make the finale of season 9 about Voight stepping down/getting promoted, etc.

Q: Did Chicago Justice deserve more episodes? A: I'm sort of split with this question. I loved the fact that there was a big episode involving Kevin, and they always included people from Med, Fire, and PD in some of the episodes. However, the whole plot of the episodes was kind of slow because it wasn't like they were police officers and could go out and chase suspects and arrest people and what not. Their job was just to gather the evidence and then present it in court. I think for many, the show fell flat because there wasn't much action, and part of me does agree with that, but the whole idea of the show itself was kind of cool.

Q: What would make you stop watching each Chicago show? A: This is a tough question because I've only ever dropped one show that I can think of, and it was only because the plotline got really dumb. Maybe if some major characters died in each show I'd stop watching it? But then again, I love the One Chicago universe so much that I don't think even that would stop me from watching. So yeah. I really don't know.

Q: Do you believe in magic? A: As much as I would love for magic to be real, I don't believe it is. But I feel like everyone thinks that way. Cause lets be honest, Harry Potter and Disney make magic look so cool. However, we all know deep down somewhere that it's almost impossible for certain things to be real, and magic just so happens to be one of them.

Q: Are you superstitious? A: I'm not the most superstitious person out there, but I do somewhat follow a few superstitions. Whenever I find a penny on the ground with heads facing up, I pick it up because I believe I'll get good luck. Doing the whole "fingers crossed" thing is something I do a lot. I believe you shouldn't open an umbrella in the house or else you'll receive bad luck. Broken mirrors are bad omens. Those are the top 4 I believe in, but other than that, I'm not really too superstitious.

Q: Is your perception of yourself similar or the same to how others perceive you? A: I mean, I would hope so. I appreciate my level of smarts, and whenever my friends acknowledge them or compliment me on them it makes my day. However, with that, people think that I'm always only doing things to boost my intelligence. For example, I love to read. So whenever I say that I didn't do much over the weekend, people always assume that I read a bunch, when I really didn't. Or that I always study for tests or do homework like a week before it's do. That is not the case. But for the most part, I believe my perception of myself is the same as how other people perceive me.

Q: Who is your favorite couple on each One Chicago show? A: Okay, so for Med, there aren't really any couples at the moment besides Maggie and Ben, whom I love but they aren't my favorite, so I'm gonna pick a past couple. When I first started Med, Manstead was my prime ship, so I'll choose them. Will had been pining after Natalie for so long so I was glad when they finally got together. For Fire, it's gotta be Kelly and Stella. They were literally made for each other, and they support each other with everything. Also, they are so cute together and all of Firehouse 51 ships them as well! And for PD, while I do love Burzek, Upstead is my favorite ship at the moment. I've seen the connection between Hailey and Jay since season 5. You don't understand how angry I was in season 7 when Hailey was so close to confessing her feelings. So season 8 made me very happy when Jay and Hailey finally got together.

Q: Jay and Lindsey or Jay and Hailey? A: I respect everyone's opinions on this matter, so hopefully you all respect mine. I thought that Erin was almost toxic in a way for Jay. She continuously broke his heart when all he wanted to do was help him. But what really does it for me is that she left Chicago without telling him goodbye. Hailey, on the other hand, has pushed Jay to seek out help when he needed it, like when she recommended he take seeing a therapist seriously to help with his PTSD, and she is always there for him, no matter what. That's why I believe Hailey and Jay are the better pairing.

Q: Which character death got to you the most? A: There have been too many sad deaths in the One Chicago world. But if I had to pick one, I've gotta go with Otis on Chicago Fire. Otis was always one of my favorite characters, even way back when I watched Fire with my dad when it was first coming out. He was witty and funny, and his friendship with Cruz was everything. So, when I watched the episode where he died, I was full on balling. I had to pause the episode for 10 minutes because I couldn't stop.

Q: Who is your favorite character on each show and why? A: I'm gonna do favorite male and female character because I've got too many favorites from each show. On Med, my favorites are Will and Natalie. Will has been my favorite since day one, and I like that he will go out of his way to help patients, even if it means he could get in serious trouble. Natalie, even though she's not in the show, always pushes for the best of care for her patients, and whenever she dealt with kids it was always the sweetest thing. On Fire, I like Kelly and Sylvie. Kelly is so headstrong and driven, and he will do anything to protect the other members of Squad 3. Sylvie is such a hard worker and you can tell she is passionate about her job. I feel so bad that she's had to go through so many partners. On PD I love Jay and Hailey. Jay has not always been my favorite male character. Back when I watched the show for the first time, I adored Adam. However, I love that Jay has such good morals and is always pushing to do the right thing even when Voight disagreed. Now, it took a few episodes for me to warm up to Hailey, but after seeing her be so badass, it was hard not to like her.

Q: Where do you get inspiration for your stories?/How do you get inspiration when there's not a request? A: This question is always hard to answer because I really don't know. Most of the time I'm fulfilling requests sent in by you guys and I just write what comes to the top of my mind. If there are requests that are not requested and I come up with them on my own, chances are I saw the plot somewhere else, like in a book or show or movie, and I just tweaked it a bit to fit the One Chicago universe. Either that happens, or while I'm trying to fall asleep, I make up random scenarios in my head, and if I find one that I really like, I'll make a note of it on my phone so I don't forget it, and then I'll write about it.

Q: Do you think Brett and Casey are endgame? Why or why not? A: I'm gonna go with yes on this one. Now, Brettsey is not one of my top ships in the universe. However, they are cute together, and I've been expecting them to get together for a while. The two of them, even when Gabby was around, had a great relationship and always cared for each other. Plus, Matt jumped out of a firetruck to go help Sylvie when the ambulance flipped. He was willing to risk an injury just to make sure she was okay. And now that they are officially together in Chicago Fire, you can see that they really love and care for each other.

Q: What inspired you to start writing? A: I always seem to get this question whenever I do a q&a, but that's okay because I don't mind talking about it. I first got into stuff like this as a reader. Basically, I went on to Wattpad and Tumblr to read other people's stories. I had no intention of creating my own. And then, one day, I started imagining myself in some of the fandoms I was apart of, and I thought, "If I'm imagining myself in these fandoms, chances are others are too," and I began creating stories that followed the plots of movies and shows exactly, just adding Y/n in it. However, that got tiring after a while because I wasn't able to have much freedom because I was following a set script, and that's when I remembered I had a Tumblr account I never used. So, I revamped my account just a little bit and started posting story ideas I had that I couldn't post on Wattpad because either they didn't fit with the stories or they were for someone I didn't write for on Wattpad. And now, here we are. For anyone interested, I've posted this before but I'll post it again, my Wattpad handle is @Writer_Reader05.

Q: Jay or Will Halstead? A: I'm sorry, but I really can't choose between the two of them. I love them both so much. Will and Jay are two of my favorite characters in the whole One Chicago universe. While they do have some qualities that I'm not the fondest of, at the end of the day, I adore the both of them, and I could never choose between them.

Q: Who would you rather date: Jay or Will Halstead? A: Why do you guys do this to me? I love them both so much! But, if I have to choose, I'm gonna pick Jay. The only reason is because I like the characters in PD more than Med, so if I'm dating Jay, chances are I'm friends with Hailey and Adam and all of Intelligence. Will is just as awesome as Jay though and I feel like sometimes people sleep on that.

Q: Which of the requested fics you’ve written is your favorite? A: I think I'm gonna have to go with a Jay Halstead x reader I wrote titled Two Becomes Three. Something about the plot just makes me smile. And to think of Jay being a father......So yeah, while I have so many amazing requested fics thanks to you all, that one has to be one of my favorites.

Q: What’s your favorite series you’ve written so far? A: I love all of the series I have written. Something about creating a whole story that's more than just one part is always fun. If I have to pick one series, I'm gonna pick On the Loose. It was the first series I wrote on Tumblr and the plot of it is something I'm really proud of. However, From the Big Apple to the Windy City, Identity Loss, and Difference of Opinion are all amazing! The first two are finished series and the last one still has a few chapters left to go. Go check them out if you haven't already.

Q: What's your favorite imagine you've come up with and why? A: I don't have a lot of fics that are solely my ideas. Most of my stories have plots that were sent in by you all. However, if I had to pick a favorite out of my stories, it'd be Back Home for Christmas, a Halstead Sister fic I released when I was somewhat new to the platform. Something about writing sibling fics always makes me happy because I get to express the familial side to the characters.

Q: If you had to be roommates with 5 of your mutuals/fellow writers, who would you pick and why? A: I love all of my fellow writers/mutuals so much! I know how much work we put into whatever we post, and most of us are very active on this site. As for who I would pick to be my roommates, I'd choose @hereforhalstead @fighterkimburgess @halsteadlover @resanoona @sylviebrettsey because I feel like we'd all have great conversations, mainly over One Chicago. And every Wednesday night we'd all watch the episodes live together and experience them as a group and then freak out over what happened..........Now watch me fantasize about this all day.

Q: Do you listen to music when you write? A: It depends. On some days when I plan that I'm gonna write, then yes, I do put on some music. When there are days that I have a few minutes to spare, I don't put on music just because I'm only writing for a few minutes and I don't want to waste time. But mostly when I'm writing I do play music in the background.

Q: Do you know how your fics/stories end before you finish writing it? A: This is a really interesting question. The answer is no, I do not know how I'm gonna end a fic before I finish writing it. The only story I had a set ending for was my series On the Loose, but that one wasn't even fully planned out until I got a chapter or two in. Obviously, if I get a request that includes a set ending, like two characters get together or something like that, then I know what the ending will be. Otherwise, I have no clue.

Q: Have you ever met someone who had a very similar personality to your own? Did you get along? A: You know, I can't say that I have. Everyone is different in their own way, and that's what makes us all unique. I would imagine if I did meet someone with a similar personality we'd get along because we'd basically be a carbon copy of each other, but who knows. Maybe our similar personalities would cause us to clash.

Q: Do you hold yourself to higher standards than you hold others? A: Not really. I know myself more than anyone else so I know what my limits are and when I've reached them. With people, on the other hand, I always feel like they can be doing more with themselves and their lives. So I do not hold myself to higher standards than others.

Thank you to all of you who sent in questions! I never thought I'd reach 750 followers on this platform. The only reason I have is all thanks to you wonderful people out there!

You think they’d still be happy with these producers? I dunno. I think they’d have put them through some more bad drama. It’s all they know how to do. Happy couples don’t get screentime under this lot.

Oh they'd have been through drama but they'd definitely still be together and in love if Dryan hadn't jumped ship.

Maybe the surrogacy wouldn't have worked the first time or ended in a miscarriage and there would have been drama like 'maybe it's not meant to be" "maybe we should give up" and then they'd have Seb again and see Tracy and Nate with Frankie or Gabby with Thomas and they'd get broody again - but both of them convinced the other doesn't want to try anymore.

And maybe some jealousy with Ben or Mack in the mix. No actual cheating though but more a sort of uneasiness between them when Aaron would hang out with Ben or Robert with Mack (because they'd be bffs - you can't change my mind).

And surely they'd get dragged into the pub/dingle drama nonsense here and there. and the Liv and Ben drama. And the will they/won't they with Vic and David. Vic talking to her big brother about falling in love with someone you shouldn't and Rob being like "yup, i know the problem."

plenty of drama without breaking them up!

[scrapyardboyfriends]

Late watch of the episode...

The Harriet stuff is truly fucking awful. And the worst part of it is that we’re now theoretically back at the status quo. So we went through all of that cellar nonsense and for what? Nothing. I assume at some point someone will find Malone’s stupid body up at Home Farm but when the hell are we going to get there? This story has been going on for over a year. It is time for it to be OVER. It should have been over like 6 months ago. Other than that one Harriet fan in the tag, who is even enjoying this? 

Gabby trying to take the Tate initiation test could be...interesting. Depends on what they do with it. I do wonder if they’re going to let her go full villain...or as far as Kim or if they’re going to eventually have her have some crisis of conscience or get screwed over one too many times that she decides to fight back against Kim instead of joining her. Either could work if they do it right...but that’s debatable these days. 

Fuck that PI. Jimmy deserves only nice things and he better survive next week and get to keep Carl. 

The Mack and Aaron stuff was fun. I did not expect him coming out half naked from behind the van but it was amusing, as was Aaron’s reaction. I like that he did actually have a real plan besides that though. And he kept Aaron from getting arrested so maybe he’s not as bad as everyone makes out. But I do enjoy their dynamic. The banter is fun. I like Mack winding Aaron up and giving him something to actually play off of. It’s miles better than anything else he’s gotten to do since January 2020. So I will take it. 

And story wise, anything they want to do with them that keeps them interacting seems like a good decision to me. If that’s fun frenemies and occasional reluctant crime buddies like this? Cool. If they actually form a real friendship, great. Aaron needs friends, but this show doesn’t seem to care about friendships much these days, especially establishing new ones so I won’t hold out much hope. But they should do it. I still think it would benefit both characters. If they want to actually take them in a romantic direction considering they keep baiting the audience with Mack flirting with him, then I’m fine with that too as a possible story direction. As far as we know, Ryan isn’t leaving the allotment yet and they’re going to have Aaron move on romantically at some point and if I have to choose between Ben, Mack or some other boring love interest, I think Mack has the most potential to be interesting at the moment. And before I get any panicky anons (assuming anyone has actually read this far), just because I think it could be a decent story and I might enjoy watching if it doesn’t suck, does not mean I don’t ship Robron. They are not mutually exclusive. This is not an either/or thing until Ryan gets back to work. Not to mention that nothing has even happened yet so who cares until it does. 

[dinglemingle]

I feel like they're gonna kill someone else off because as much as everyone wanted Paul gone,no one's gonna miss him so it's not tragic or sad

So who will it be?

Jimmy? I doubt it,he's the last remaining King (of the original brothers) and a long-standing well loved character. I feel like if they were going to kill him off then it'd be his own big sl. Also it would pretty much end the custody SL as Juliette would probably get Carl. This wouldn't be good as 1) they'd be taking away a young King and be again removing iconic families and 2) what would they do with Nicola? She'd grieve,lose Carl, grieve some more and then...?!! Her and Jimmy's realtio ship is kinda her main thing. If he died would she be able to manage the haulage company? I'm not too sure,which would then take away her other main component. So I'm ruling Jimmy out

Vinny? No. Why? 1) Would they really kill off both of Mandy's main family members? 2) If he dies it'll be Aaron and Liv's word about the abuse?? There's no way Mandy would believe them. If he lives however it'll be good conflict as Vinny probably won't want to say anything because Mandy is grieving,so he'd bottle it up for weeks before it would finally all come out. Great drama and angst. 3) He's technically a Dingle and he's just old enough to have more adult and less teen SL"s. Do I really like Vinny? No,but the show and the general public definitely do,I can see them having Vinny copes with his abuse sl, maybe they'll try make him a knock off Aaron who knows! Either way,he has some potential,I don't think it's him.

Which leaves everyone's favourite pointless ,personality less,plot device ,Liv!

Of course we all dislike for a multitude of reasons but from the producers perspective it also makes sense

1) Sad Aaron being sad. It's the shows biggest gimmick,has been for over a decade. Danny is fantastic at angst heartfelt stuff, they'd be stupid to waste that. Plus it'd give him more screen time which surely they want seen as Aaron is a public favourite.

Also, it'd be a way to introduce Ben again (dramatic sigh). Aaron's sad,he 'needs' Ben. I hate it as much as everyone else but given the show atm,it seems a route the producers would take. Why else would Ben show up?? He turns up having heard of Liv's death, see's Aaron's state decides to stick around and try help him,boom, romance! (What do we do to deserve this honestly)

2) What are they going to do with Liv after this sl? She'll comfort Vinny, they'll get back together and then??? She's an adult now, she's passed getting drunk with Gabby and terrorising pensioners. Everyone else has moved on,she still feels like a child. Gabby is up at home farm, rivalling with Kim Tate,she's had jobs, she's having a baby, she could potential be the next soap bitch. What has Liv done? She isn't in education,she doesn't have a job,she hasn't really had her own story line in 5 whole years! Everything she's been involved with has been as a sideline to the other characters. Robron, Jacob, Vinny. The things she could have had were dropped or not very good. Prison sl didn't really have much impact,no real aftermath. Alcoholism was just glossed over. Asexuality was better than the rest but still a bit lackluster. She's the shows (and maybe soaps??) first explicitly and out asexual character yet they don't explore it that much,a waste! Epilepsy is what, pending? Okay so she hasn't been diagnosed,then show us how she's feeling about that, show us her fear,her anger! Anything!

To me,she feels like a nothing character. There is nothing for her in Emmerdale. Roblivion (shudders) dead, Ryan's gone,they don't know if he's coming back so they can't just wait around. Her wanting a stable family unit made sense when she was 16 but she has the Dingles now?? It doesn't make much sense anymore to have that narrative,she's literally referred to as 'our Liv' so...

Besides even of Ryan does come back she will definitely be in her twenties, maybe thinking about living on her own, having a career or something. The whole kid sister robron doing the dad bit will be past it then. They will be in their thirties, being parents,not really pushing people through floorboards and nicking cars anymore. It's inevitable that they will become a bit less prominent as the younger characters (cough liv cough) take centre stage

But as I've said,she has nothing going for her. Iz is young, she's a great actor and has a flourishing music career (her cover of the winner takes it all is one of my favourites). From that interview she seemed a bit idk bored?? She clearly didn't give a shit about Ben and only mentioned Robron. If were her I'd be sick of being sidelined and only appearing to meddle in my brother's love life. I don't think Iz had much reason to stay,she deserves better.

Anywaysss that's my take, dragged on a bit but I'm passionate

Do I honestly think they'll kill her? Probably not cause Emmerdale hates us and the producers couldn't make a good sl if it slapped them in the face,but I can hope at least, and it's the most logical approach.

ONE CHICAGO FINALES

MED:

The Marchexton (yeah, I did that) triangle. I'm so sad for April, I kinda felt it coming. It seems like she doesn't even wanna find an alternative method and that's totally understandable.

I didn't like Ethan reaction at the whole "I don't know if I want to have a baby". I mean, I personally don't think you can find a compromise on that topic, but what the hell Ethan, are you with her because you love her or because you want her to give you a bunch of little Chexton? And you give her an ultimatum? Fuck you, dawg! It's difficult to rationalize and I know it's not black or white, I get that, but still... I understand him, but I didn't like how he acted.

And if I side with April on that, I totally have to disagree for what she did later. I hate cheating, physically, mentally, whatever you got, I hate when people are dishonest about their feelings. I know she was trying to process the bad news and she feels like Ethan was not being supportive, I know Dr. Marcel is charming and all that, but these were not valid reasons for her to kiss Crockett. I'm sorry. You come clean, you tell your partner how you feel, you talk to him/her about what to do next, then you get to do whatever the fuck you want.

Daniel and Cece. Damn, seeing Dr. Charles cry broke my heart. His relationship with Cece is so adorable, though I have a feeling is not gonna last any longer. Cece is really sick, unfortunately. Oh, hi Robin! I'm now used to seeing Mekia on The Rookie, didn't think she would made an appearance on Med anymore.

Maggie and Ben. Ben wasn't actually dying! I wanna see their relationship improve, but I don't wanna see Maggie acting like a dumb fool who doesn't have a functioning brain. She needs to get it together and stop being unreasonable.

Manstead is over. Is it, though? I wanna make sure we're done with this nightmare of a relationship for good, I don't don't wanna be surprised at the end of this season.

"I have been so unfair to Will" well, I'm glad you realized that, Nat! It's funny to me that she was saying those things while Elsa was next to her and, you know, Elsa has a crush on Will (though she's still the gayest character on Med to me), allegedly.

"We aren't good for one another, all we do is hurt each other. (...) I feel free" wow William, took you long enough to understand that, but I guess we made it. I'm so glad he's the one who said those words and I'm pretty sure he really means them. He looked so at peace with this realisation, it really made me happy. My cute baby!

FIRE:

Stella. She had to make an accident to admit that she needed to slow down a little bit. I swear to God, seeing her all agitated at doing multitasking almost triggered my anxiety, I'm not even kidding.

Aw, Boden apologized to her. I love that he told her that he respects her and her potential and that he himself should've done better than this. It was cute.

Dawsey. Why the fuck did Gabby come back for? I still don't get it. I don't wanna be mean or anything, but that visit was totally uncalled for and pointless. What kind of closure is that? Just say you wanted to fuck one last time, don't try to come up with fake deep excuses. I don't know, it was good to see Monica again (God, that woman is so gorgeous, it's unfair), but Gabby could've stayed in Puerto Rico.

Ouch, I saw Sylvie's bummed face and god do I know that feeling! I'm still not 100% sure about Brettsey (mostly because Matt doesn't seem to know what he really wants yet), but we'll see.

Thank you Matt for mentioning Antonio! It seems like he's the only one who hasn't forgot about him. Yes, I'm being super petty.

Gallo and Ritter. Unless they show me who tf Ritter's boyfriend is, I'm still going to believe it's/ship him with Blake.

Crotis forever! I'm so glad they're still talking about Brian and not acting like he wasn't an important part of 51. His friendship with Joe is one of the best things on the show.

Severide. That lady at OFI... sis has taste, that's all I can say. I wish Kelly would explicitly mention that he has a girlfriend so that woman (I'm sorry, I didn't get her name) would know what boundaries she shouldn't overstep.

The last scene... can you give this man a break? Just when he has a little taste of tranquility in his life, boom!, something happens. I love drama, though, so I'm digging whatever is coming, for sure.

PD:

That Buzerk convo... what tf was that? Awkward, almost cringe-worthy. Yikes.

Jay's undercover name has changed. Goodbye Ryan, say hello to Jim!

"Jay's going through a few things" when isn't he, though? Drama is his second name.

I know he wasn't thinking straight and he wanted to come clean for whatever reason, but, damn, he's so stupid sometimes. Of course Angela was gonna rat him out/want him dead if he told her he's a cop - the one who basiclly got his husband killed.

Hailey. I loved her. I absolutely adore how she's got Jay's back no matter what and, damn, the fact that he was kidnapped really got to her. She was pissed, worried, angry... we've never seen her like this, at least not to this extents! I actually liked to see Adam comfort her. I totally ship Upstead (like, I would literally die for them), but I like the fact that Adam is still somebody she can rely on.

I swear to god, when she broke that cup a shard went into her eye, I SAW IT. How come she's not blind?!

I kinda missed seeing Voight beat the shit outta people in that cage. It was nice to witness it again. LOL

Angela, I swear to god, if Voight or Hailey don't kill you, I Will (Halstead - get it? It's fun, leave me alone).

Guys, I honestly thought it was gonna be like when Kev got kidnapped and nothing extreme happened, apart from his injured leg, but that bitch really shot my son Jay! I thought he was gonna trick her somehow into giving up that gun, but it didn't happened... which is fine by me, because yeah I love my man, but I wanna see him suffer too. Sounds fucked up? Hell yeah, it does. Do I care? No, I don't. Give me my whump!Jay/Upstead content and I'll be happy.
