#Rory was flabbergasted

[athousandboxjumps]

Another moment from last night’s performance (April 9 — the swing show spectacular) that killed me:

*Bit of context: this was during the scene change from King of New York into Letter from the Refuge. Specs and Race clear some of the chairs to the stage right vom and they’re mics aren’t on, so you could only hear this if you were right in front of them. Specs was played by Samuel Bailey as usual and Race at this moment was Rory Shafford.*

Specs: Hey Race! ………….you don’t look like Race…………

Race: 👁️👄👁️

hearing people speak on gilmore girls infuriates me because did you even watch the show

Before L and the gang’s trip to Italy, there were rumblings in the fandom, based off of feelings, that L and A might be on the outs. While “feelings” alone don’t confirm a split, it’s notable that multiple people felt this way. When the second round of pap photos came out and showed that L and A were still together, many fans were both gutted and flabbergasted.

I’ve been thinking—what if what we sensed was correct? Maybe L and A were already on the outs before the Italy trip, but since the trip was planned and booked to celebrate Rory’s birthday, they decided to go together anyway. However, during the trip, things might have unraveled even further, leading to the current silence we’re seeing among the group.

hmmm I could see this. It's hard to know exactly of course. SOMETHING definitely went down on the Italy bday trip though. No one can convince me otherwise atp.

What does everyone else think?

[cursed-rat-of-homosexuality]

You wanna know what I can't wait for? I can't wait for us to be absolutely, completely, unarguably, dead-ass WRONG about what's going to happen in S2. Like, you think Lucius is in the walls? Sorry hon he's getting massaged to resurrection by mermaids. Lol, you also thought a third Badminton brother would show up? Oh well, not that - but their mother is coming to avenge her children (she's played by Rory Kinnear though). Ed and Stede have a homoerotic swordfight? Hmm also wrong, Izzy shoots Stede on sight without Ed's knowledge and they never actually meet until the middle of the season (it's a starcrossed lovers type of thing).

For as much as we try to predict stuff, we still can't know what happens. I can't wait to see my dash flooded with bewildered comments of people being flabbergasted by what's happening on screen. I can't wait for ME to drop my jaw at where they are taking the plot. It's going to be great, I really really can't wait.

We all know Buggy adores his (not-so) little Treasures with his whole being and he's a wonderful Dad 💜 What is his favorite, unique thing about each of the triplets? (Not sure if this has been asked before - if so, please ignore!)

Thanks for the ask ! Yeah Bugs is an amazing dad in his very specific kind of way. To answer you I'll say that :

- He loves Blaze natural ability to create chaos around him. He also shares his very "particular" cooking skills and often bond over it with him

- When it come to Skye he just ... Recognizes himself in her, which lead them to have a very special connexion. He sees himself in her insecurities and the way she hides them behind a short temper and an ambitious personality.

- Finally for Rory he's just flabbergasted by his intelligence. He often wonder where it comes from, tho. Furthermore, due to Rory's grumpy nature, he cherishes the soft moments he can have with him. For instance Rory calls his father "Buggy" and his mother "Mother" so the very few times he drops a "Daddy" are gold treasure precious memories for our poor old clown. (Rory probably thinking that if he wants to be loved Buggy had to deserve it somehow)

Did any of the mercs have pets before becoming a mercenary? Or maybe even own one now but currently not in the base with us?

(We know about the doves, the raccoons, the rabbit and the dog(?), so qre there secret ones in the base that we just haven't seen so far? One of Spy's cosmetics is a raven(i think) that has an Archimedes mask and I thinks it's adorable :^)))

Mod B: warning in this one for animal cruelty & animal death

"I had a dog growing up. And an old mouser that died when I was a kid," Mick says, while pulling out his wallet, "Here, I have a picture of me & Rory from when he was a pup. I was ten at the time." He shows you the picture of Rory, a bully mix, with little Mick next to him. They both have ears that are way too big for their heads, & they're both smiling goofily at the camera.

Dell chuckles, "Well, I shared most of my pets with my brother, but my pa once bought me a race horse that I named Cheesesticks. I was just a kid, so I wasn't allowed to ride him yet, or gamble, but I got to brush him every day! Otherwise we had a lot of pets, pa liked spoiling me & my brother since he was always away working for the Mann brothers. What?" He turns to see Bug & Jeremy staring at him blankly.

"I had a hamster." Jeremy says.

"I had a goldfish." Bug adds.

"A fucking racehorse?" Mick is, quite clearly, flabbergasted.

In another part of the base, the other mercs have been asked the same question.

"Oh, my family owned a dog when I was young," Ludwig hums, "Named after great something grandfather Leopold. My father shot him in the backyard when he got into a fight with another dog in the town." Mikhail looks very disturbed.

"I had baby robin I found as child?"

Tavish shrugs, "Eh, me first cat got herself blown up by accident. I was devastated, & it taught me a lesson tae always close the garage or workshop door when working."

"First??"

"Aye. I had five, including that one. The other four were actually the first one's kittens, & they all died of old age." Mikhail, poor Mikhail, stares at both Tavish & Ludwig, completely confused, & unsure as to how he should react.

"Blown up?? Shot?? Huh????"

"Ooh, Misha! Should we get the Kinder a pet when they're a bit older? Maybe something nice like a bunny rabbit? Or maybe something that can protect them like a dog?" Mikhail flops back against the pillows & groans.

Warning. I''m about to be critical of Rory Gilmore. Specifically about the affair with Dean.

First, lets get this out of the way. Dean is completely at fault for cheating on Lindsay. That goes without question. No one has ever tried to defend Dean in any way. However, people have defended Rory.

When the show first aired, the general justification was that Rory didn't take vows, so she had no obligation to respect Dean's marriage. I admit I was flabbergasted reading multiple posts like this. I mean, obviously people feel that way or no one would sleep with someone married. But, I always assumed it was a something only a small number of people sleeping with a married person truly believed. Others would tell themselves that to justify what they knew was wrong. And others outside the situation would all agree that hurting an innocent party is wrong. No certificate or vows necessary. But, it seemed people honestly felt Rory was completely in her right to sleep with Dean because she wasn't the married one.

Skip ahead to now. The reasoning isn't that Rory doesn't have to worry about Dean being married. It's that Rory had no idea that Dean was still married. That she thought it was over and he was free to be with her. I don't accept that. Did Dean imply that he and Lindsay were in agreement that the marriage was emotionally over (which is a different thing from being legally over)? Yes, so we can blame him for that. But, I don't think Rory really felt that meant Dean was no longer married. I mean, look at her argument with Lorelai. Yes, she says that it's over, but when Lorelai pushes, Rory doesn't answer that he told her that it was something that both he and Lindsay are on the same page. She admits they didn't discuss the details. Probably because neither one of them wanted to discuss it. And they had time. It's not like they were frantically tearing clothes off and moving so fast she couldn't catch her breath to ask a few probing questions. Like "So,you're getting divorced?" If she had asked and he had said yes, I'd be more inclined to say Rory was innocent in this. Also, take her other justifications. Lindsay isn't right for him. (implication, Rory is) That he's not a married guy. But, not because a divorce or even separation are in the works, but because "he's Dean. My Dean" which overrides his marriage. Again, we see this in her saying "he was my boyfriend first!" She slept with Dean because she felt her teenage relationship with him took precedence over his marriage.

Rory wanted to sleep with Dean. But, I don't think she could have done it and admit to herself that his marriage didn't matter to her. She wouldn't have gone to him or instigated anything, but since he came to her, well, he was her boyfriend first. But, she couldn't risk going any deeper with her questioning and keep her from hiding from herself the fact that she was sleeping with a married man .

Also, I have to step back and look at it from a writing perspective. They could have played it very differently. They could have had Rory tell Lorelai that Dean was leaving Lindsay. And when pressed she could have said that he said it was over so that must be what he meant. Or even just repeat him saying that both he and Lindsay felt that it was over. They could have played it as Lorelai being sympathetic and sad that Rory's first time came from being tricked. They could even still have their fight only this time it would be because Rory was mad at Lorelai for disparaging Dean's integrity. But, it's pretty clear that they were not writing a naive girl who had no idea of the situation.

Weekend Top Ten #639

Top Ten Stories for a New Lord of the Rings Movie

Sometimes timing can work with you and against you.

A few weeks ago, we were shocked – shocked, I say – at the revelation that Warner Bros wanted to get back in the Lord of the Rings business. Okay, well, not that shocked; after all, money can be exchanged for goods and services. But what was interesting about this particular announcement is that the films were, essentially, going to be part of the “cinematic universe” established by Peter Jackson’s initial trilogy twenty years ago; that these films were being designed to be of a piece with the six films Jackson directed. What’s more, key creatives were coming back; the whole endeavour was overseen – and, indeed, produced – by Jackson himself, and writers Fran Walsh and Philippa Boyens were crafting the scripts. Although The Hobbit films may have been a mixed bag, this was still exciting news for Tolkien fans. That the first of these films was going to be directed by, and star, Andy Serkis – returning once more to the role of Gollum – was flabbergasting in the extreme.

Anyway, I decided I wanted to write about it, but I had a bunch of other lists I had to do, so it got pushed back till now.

And so, the other night, I was compiling my list, when lo and behold the story dropped that Rory Kinnear would be playing Tom Bombadil in the second season of The Rings of Power – Amazon’s odd, continuity-adjacent, occasionally great, often meandering retelling of Middle-earth’s second age. The show – seemingly cobbled together from bits of the appendices to Rings – fluctuated wildly in its first season, and was often a bit of a drag. But the inclusion of Bombadil is really interesting; it doesn’t make much sense from a timeline perspective, but then the show seems to have jettisoned canon altogether, so let’s just run with it.

But Bombadil was going to be on this list, dangnabbit. So then I had to do a rethink.

Because what I’m writing about this week is other possible stories drawn from the world of The Lord of the Rings, that could serve as the basis for Jackson and co’s next foray to Middle-earth. Because the film The Hunt for Gollum is doing just that: finding a tiny space within the narrative, using a story beat outlined by Tolkien, to craft a new tale. So here I’ve found ten other story ideas, ten other moments, ten other snippets of lore, that I think could be adapted into a one-off, very interesting movie. These are little moments – battles, feuds, last stands, momentous occurrences, tragedies, romances, whatever – that could be cinematic in scope, could command our attention. And, crucially, they’re all to be found in the appendices of The Lord of the Rings; because, as I understand it, Warner Bros only has the rights to make movies out of that book (and The Hobbit). They can’t, I believe, touch The Silmarillion or the other various adjacent works that Christopher Tolkien has adapted, edited, and released since his father’s death. That means, tragically, that we can’t tell the story of Morgoth and Ungoliant stealing the light from the trees of Valinor, and how Ungoliant then tried to eat Morgoth, and he had to be rescued by his army of Balrogs. Come on: Sauron’s old boss, the evilest of evils, being cornered by a giant spider from beyond the boundaries of time and space? Don’t act like that’s not badass.

Anyway, here are the ideas I’ve got, on the assumption that Sir Pete is reading (which he probably is). As well as staying within the boundaries of the book, I’ve also tried not to step on the toes of anything recounted already in the movies (although there is a bit of crossover, I guess), or retell the stuff that’s being covered by the Rings of Power show. I almost succeed – as you will see.

I’m sorry that there aren’t any ageless kaiju spiders who devour light.

The War of Dwarves and Orcs: this was sort of touched upon in the Hobbit movies, so it would require – I think – I bit of ignoring/recasting (like they did with the Ian Holm Bilbo flashback in The Fellowship of the Ring, I guess). But after Smaug conquers Erebor, the Dwarves attempt to take back Moria, leading (long story short) to a huge war. The tragic beginnings could lead us to an apocalyptic climax (The Battle of Azanulbizar, in fact!), with many main characters heroically perishing and others stepping up to the plate, and although (spoiler!) the good guys win, it’s a pyrrhic victory, and even sets up events in the original LOTR trilogy. Also: Dwarves!

The Quest for Moria: back to the Dwarves (I love them so) and back to Moria, this one is (essentially) a long-gestating sequel to the first idea, as Balin (from off of The Hobbit, so maybe you could even get Ken Slott back if he’s up for it and not too old) leads a company of Dwarves to re-establish the colony at Moria, assuming the Orcs have gone. This could almost be a horror movie as the Dwarves realise they’re not alone down there. It's a bit of a bummer ending, as they’re all killed by Orcs and (yes) the Balrog. But it could be a tense, terrifying alternate look at life in Middle-earth.

The Ballad of Bullroarer Took: Bandobras “Bullroarer” Took was, at four foot five, the tallest Hobbit on record, and (by Hobbit standards) something of an adventurer. This film would be about how his wild ways provoked disapproval among the Shirefolk, whilst in the background the Rangers attempted to stave off a Goblin attack. Culminating in the Battle of Greenfields, we’d have a full-on invasion of the Shire, with Bullroarer riding a horse and inventing golf. It could be a cool slice of Hobbit life, conflicting the pastoral with the violent, and show us a different side to Hobbits.

War of the Witch-King: there are several stories you could tell about the several-hundred-years-long series of wars the Witch-King of Angmar inflicted on Gondor, Arnor, and their people. I think focusing on the “last” battle would tie into the other movies better; the Witch-King would initially conquer Arnor, before a coalition of men and elves (and even hobbits!) would form to fight back. This would allow us to finally see Glorfindel, a major character in the book cut from the movies, who gives us the prophecy about the Witch-King not being killed by “a man”; and also has the baddie finally flying away to Minas Morgul, where is in LOTR. Regardless, it’d be a human-centred war story.

The Battle of Dale: back to Dain Ironfoot, one of my favourite minor Tolkien characters, who was a hero in the War of the Dwarves and Orcs (and is played by Billy Connolly in The Hobbit). This is quite an interesting battle, as it ties directly into The Lord of the Rings; in fact, it’s happening at the same time as The Return of the King, but it’s in the locations we see in The Hobbit. King Brand (the grandson of Luke Evans’ character Bard) and Dain make a futile last stand against the Orcs in front of the Lonely Mountain; both of them die tragic, heroic deaths, but then Frodo destroys the ring, the Orcs lose heart, and their sons ride out to claim victory. A sad war movie with a happy ending, I guess.

The Journey of Aragorn: moving slightly away from just “war movies”, this would focus on a young Aragorn (you’d need to recast Viggo Mortensen, but I have a feeling they’re going to do that anyway for The Hunt for Gollum; after all, he’d be 25 years older by the time they film it). He lives in Rivendell until he learns of his ancestry and destiny, after which he embarks on a very long hero’s journey, including going to Gondor under an alias and fighting alongside a young Denethor (the Steward played by John Noble in Return of the King). This film would show Aragorn’s growing acceptance of his legacy, until at the end he joins the Dunedain Rangers and heads off once more.

Oath of Rohan: I’ve tried not to paddle in the same water as War of the Rohirrim, because, well, they’ve done it haven’t they? So we’ll get to see Helm Hammerhand before the year’s out. But I love Rohan, those freaky Celtic-adjacent horse-lords. The founding of Rohan could be an interesting film, as a disparate group of riders comes to the aid of the Steward of Gondor, fighting off a bunch of Bad Men, and being rewarded with land as a result. You’ve got some good, earthy characterisation, some nice battle scenes, and a big Star Wars-esque “Peace!” moment at the end as Steward Cirion and King Eorl swear and oath together.

The Founding of the Shire: this one maybe would deviate the most from lore, in terms of creating extra drama. But I do love the Hobbits and tales around them, so showing how brothers Marcho and Blanco lead a group of Harfoots from Bree into the Shire would allow us a nice insight on Hobbit life. Relatively comfortable with what they have in Bree, many wouldn’t want the risk of a journey and fresh start, even if it gave them their own land, and even if the King said it was okay; perhaps they face hardship, environmental hazards, and maybe even some baddies. But they find their perfect home in the end.

The Last Ride of Merry and Pippin: one way to tell a new film would be to just carry on the story from the last film. There’s not really a ton of actual drama (Aragorn has a few more fights, I guess), but we could get a lot of melancholy in Merry and Pippin riding to both Rohan and then Gondor at the end of their lives, most of their friends having predeceased them (or, rather, sailed off to the West). You’d get this nice sense of love as older men reflected on their own youth and the world their children have inherited, and the fact that these two friends adored each other. And I don’t think you’d need to do much to age up the actors; by the time they’d film a movie like this, Billy Boyd would be within ten years of Ian Holm’s age when he played Bilbo.

The Rings of Power: okay, so the oliphaunt in the room is obviously The Rings of Power, which I’ve said I won’t go near. But there are so many cool stories in that period that you could tell! The capture of Sauron! The fall of Numenor! The forging of the rings! You could even skip forward a couple of thousand years and show the arrival of the Istari in Middle-earth! It’s frustrating that the way they’re telling these tales in the TV show isn’t in accordance with the book, which would be fair enough, except I think that they’re doing it in a slightly less interesting way. But all the same, we can’t expect a movie to follow in their footsteps (just as we sadly aren’t going to get a Tom Bombadil solo movie). Alas and alack!

@michaelandadam asked:

Michael looked around as he landed his wings out the light bulbs around him popping. "Nephlim…." he says instantly picking up on the feeling as his blade drops into his hands and he looks around for any sort of threat. He spots Rory not far away from him and takes a small step back wary of her. "I'm not looking for trouble… you let me leave in peace and I won't tell anyone of your existence" he says not knowing that in this universe there were no rules against nephlim

There's a beat. And another beat. Rory's just taking in the situation, and quite honestly? Is just that little bit flabbergasted that an angel was talking to her in the first place. Who was----? And why was he----? Eyes fell to the blade in his hand, and she tilts her head, taking a careful step closer.

"My existence? Is that supposed to be a threat?" She takes a quick glance up to the exploded lightbulbs, then to his wings, then back to him. "Nice wings. You got a name, big fella?"

Office Festivities (Infinite Blue)

You’re excited for the holidays. Rory isn’t impressed. 

Office & Coworkers AU, Rory x Reader. No mentions of reader pronouns or gender. Also posted on Ao3 here.

——-

“Good Morning, Rory!”

“Morni- what the fuck happened to your desk.”

Tiny trees outfitted with garlands and ornaments stood in a neat line. Elf and reindeer plushes sat on top of your folders, simultaneously fulfilling their duties of paperweight and bringing Christmas cheer. String lights hung from your computer monitor and the cubicle walls, and amongst the swath of red, white, and green was you, sitting in your office chair and beaming proudly. 

“Cubicles are always so drab and grey, so I thought I’d add some holiday flair,” you remarked, aimlessly spinning a candy cane between your fingers. “Looks pretty nice, don’t you think?”

“It looks like Santa came and vomited all over.” Rory winced at the aggressively blinking lights, wondering if they were asking for help in morse code. 

You made a face back at your coworker. “Why don’t you decorate your desk? Yours look like a jungle every day of the year, at least one of your plants could use a little star.” You held out an unopened box of tiny ornaments.

“I’m not putting string lights on my aloe.”

“Even though I saw you putting a Santa hat on your tomatoes?”

“Hey!” Rory glanced around furtively, ensuring that nobody was around before leaning in and dropping his voice to a whisper. “You promised we wouldn’t talk about our private lives at work.”

You shrugged. You respected Rory’s decision to keep you two’s relationship a secret at work, but to be honest it was more like an open secret. At this point it was only him who didn’t know that everyone else had long been aware.

Dumbass doesn’t even realize that the number of people flirting with him decreased.

“Sorry, sorry.” You held your hands up in self-defense. “But I had to point out the fact that your apartment is decked out as much as my cubicle. Why not do it here too?”

“That- that’s ‘cause this is a workplace. Im trying to be professional.” 

“Excuses.” Suddenly a thought crossed your mind and you smiled, one Rory knew too well as an expression you made when you were up to no good.

“Speaking of which… Did you notice that I put up a mistletoe in the bedroom doorway?”

“You what!?”

“Guess not then. Well, I think you owe me something.”

With a shit-eating grin you watched as your partner stood flabbergasted, staring at you as his mind fiddled trying to process and make connections. But when he didn’t move for a minute, you grew a bit concerned. Perhaps you pushed him too far? You opened your mouth to rescind your statement-

“Fine.” A low voice. A hand grabbed your wrist and pulled you in, Rory’s lips meeting yours in a fiery kiss. He pulled away and observed your dumbfounded flustered self, his own cheeks slightly tinged pink but with a smug smile on his face.

“I’ll be taking this-“ he plucked the plastic ornament box from your hand. “As payback. I’m gonna put a star on my aloe. And it’s gonna look better than your holiday abomination of a desk.”

Funny you should say Lucifer should have ended on the high of S5 because they recently revealed at the Lux 2 convention that S6's ending WAS their original ending, just without Rory. They were always going to recycle S4's ending in S5 because they were attached to the idea that these two had to be split up forever for whatever irrelevant reason. Considering how many problems S5 already had in terms of pacing, the fact that all of that was apparently supposed to occur in less than one episode still leaves me flabbergasted. Kind of verified for me my suspicion that other people were to thank for the stronger seasons of the Fox era. A real shame, in all honesty.

WILD LMAO

I think I remember the showrunners saying something vaguely like this around the time that Season 6 was announced, like "oh this was always going to be our original ending! We just got the chance to tell the full story!" To be honest, I always interpret these kinds of claims as bullshit, but I guess in this case it was probably true. But HOW were they supposed to get from the end of S5 to the end of S6 within, idk, an extra 30 minutes of runtime? Like you, I do not get it.

I feel like a lot of shows/writers have this idea that sad = good. It's not good art unless it's tragic, and you need a way to stand out from all the other shows out there. Lucifer and Chloe getting a happy ending, even though it makes complete sense narratively and tonally with the rest of the show is boring! Let's split them up and force Lucifer to stay in Hell and Chloe to raise their child alone and die in her same apartment because that's sad and it needs to be sad or else it's not real art and it's not good and everyone will forget about us after a week and we'll convince everyone that we are Very Good Writers because we can write Sad things and they will think we are very clever.

Joe Henderson wrote for White Collar, which also had a terrible ending, and Ildy Modrovich wrote for CSI, where endings are irrelevant, so maybe it was doomed from the beginning, idk.

Lucifer can live on in my Ao3 profile as the fandom I wrote 12 works and 164,893 words for. It brought me joy and I'm happy I was in that fandom space and creating things; no regrets. But these days I don't read fic or even reblog gifsets when they cross my dash; the likelihood of rewatching any of it is pretty low. What a shame indeed.

[arrowheadedbitch]

Being in a hs spn show must fucking suck. You go through the most flabbergasting traumatizing horrific moment of your life and then you gotta just be like....sorry, I have class after this

Like remember when stiles got possessed by a demon and then had to go back to school like shit was normal? That was fucked up, huh

Or when Ethan almost got turned into a vampire and literally DIED and then had to be like.....so I'm gonna be a sophomore in two months...fun.

Or when Ethan Benny and Rory accidentally got their friend possessed by a demon and the what? Had to go to algebra on Monday? Fuck that!

Like, damn. School sucks enough already when you ARENT a teenager secretly saving the world every week.

[ash-overthinking]

Aren’t you that weird proshipper who ships adult and minors ??

??????? I'm sorry, what?

No, never. I'm actually really flabbergasted right now. I can't think of a single ship I've had like that. I also am not usually in fandoms for ships so much as characters, nor did I think I would have any fandom notoriety to lend to that sort of misconception. I'm pretty staunchly against anything like that, so- am I being confused with someone else? Is there something I'm missing here?

For what it's worth the main ships I've talked about in the past are:

Dean/Castiel (Supernatural)

Zach/Alex (13 Reasons Why)

Jess/Rory (Gilmore Girls)

Tobin/Leif (Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist)

Buck/Eddie (911)

Nancy/Ace (Nancy Drew)

I started as a Glee "blog" (barely doing more than liking and reblogging) when I was a teen and it was actively airing, and even then didn't get involved with most ship stuff. I had a ship I created with my best friend from a crossover when I was 16-17 and the main couple in that was a 17, almost 18 year old, and an 18 year old, and tbh that's the only thing I've written or been involved with that even did that and it makes me a little antsy looking back and is something I would change if I went back to it. I have a bunch of ships I like from various fandoms but not a single one is between a minor and an adult. I guess I have a soft spot for Zuko/Sokka from ATLA but one of them isn't an adult while the other is a kid, at least not in anything I've looked at or what have you. Can't think of anything else even going over and over things in my head. I guess I also have a soft spot for Will/Mike in Stranger Things, but not because of anything sexual. I read a lot in Teen Wolf when I was younger, but mainly shipped, like Scott/Isaac (and Scott/Kira), so again not a minor with an adult. :/

If there IS something I'm missing or have somehow screwed up with or that's being said, though, I'd love some elaboration. I would never endorse a relationship between an adult and a minor both as a human in general and someone with PTSD stemming from grooming and SA situations. Please let me know regardless, so I can rectify whatever has gone wrong (or know that there was in fact a mixup if that's what's happening).
