#Tani Rey

[incorrect-mcdanno]

Tani: Don't you get jealous? Danny: I never really had anything to worry about. Steve was never really good at the flirting thing. Steve: What are you talking about? It worked with you. Danny: Oh, you know what? You're right. We met, you flirted, and then bam! Ten years later you had me!

Season 8 Episode (I’m not sure) of Hawaii 5-0

Notice how in Danny’s dream of the future (namely the restaurant) he’s mainly just dreaming of Steve being hot? Like nice hair, handling everything, ordering Danny around the tiniest bit, moaning over his food, calling him Danno and overall just looking like he came out of a perfume ad? Then when they’re at Charlie’s graduation in the dream it zooms in on the wedding rings of Tani & Junior and then it immediately shifts to Danny and Steve arguing like a married couple.

Edit:

OMFG THEY ACTUALLY GROW OLD TOGETHER IN HIS DREAM

Also Steve said the exact words “If I didn’t put my finger inside of you we wouldn’t be having this conversation” and then everyone winced and joked about the double meaning

[mouldycakes]

@agentbootyreportingforduty @meelopee After seeing this post I remembered this scene! I know it's Junior carrying Danny but still... I'm sure that had they been younger, and Alex didn't have back pain after all those years of injuries, he'd be the one to do this.

Steve does haul Danny up like it was nothing in the finale when he find him shot though! And there's also that time he grabbed him by the waist to pull him off a suspect and just puts him behind himself (unfortunately the camera is pretty close up so you can only see part of it). Might make a post about the manhandling of Danny...

Also pls if you carry someone don't grab by the neck bc ow lots of weight is resting on that point alone and the one doing the carrying doesn't have enough surface area to grab and is prob straining every muscle trying not to drop you - also note how stiff Scott is holding himself to make it easier on Beulah - had he grabbed by the shoulders it'd have been easier on both of them.

In video form! Look at those arms! Also, Danny <3

OKAY so with full respect and admiration to scott caan for wanting to be with his family more, I do have to admit I just watched an episode where I wanted danny to be involved SO BADLY it’s unreal.

episode 9x14, the h50 team come across annie, an lgbtq+ teen who’s trying to become emancipated from her parents so they don’t forcefully send her away to conversion therapy. and the whole team is so defensive and protective of her and rightfully shaming the parents and I was full on crying hearing all their affirming words. and all I could think of is that if mfing danny williams, father of two, was there in that room he would’ve read those parents to absolute FILTH. he would’ve dragged them so bad. especially with how we see him become extra upset with any cases involving kids being mistreated, like I think he would’ve been so goddamn PISSED. I can fully imagine a scene where those parents look at him in shock at how affected he is, asking how he’s allowed to talk to them that way, still being their stubborn bigoted selves, and even steve wouldn’t hold him back on this because they all agree those parents are absolute assholes. I was imagining a scene similar to lou’s where he questions how the hell someone could do this to their child, parent to parent.

and this isn’t even me wanting danny there in a mcdanno shipper way. it’s just purely me wanting to see the side of the character I love that would have spoken up so loudly for this girl just like he would with grace or charlie or anyone else. god the potential there would’ve been so MWAH CHEF’S KISS it’s crazyyyy.

anyways if you need me i’ll be in the ao3 tag praying there’s some fics like this 🙂‍↕️

Part 2 of me rambling about s8 of hawaii five 0

Live commentary

ep 6

- did-did Danny really just organize an intervention for Steve? To make him take better care of himself?? I don't know how to feel about this

- Lou really just said "Steve listen to your husband, he loves you" spoken like a true married man

- kinda gotta agree with Dog, not your finest move Danny

- so can we all agree that Danny losing his mind a little over Steve's radiation poisoning is kinda like the whole Steve losing his mind over Danny retiring thing but in reverse?

- I think Steve has never looked more stressed than with this stress counseler person asking him about his sexlife right in front of danny

- awwww now the end of this episode is in my top 3 favorite heart to hearts these two dorks have ever had

- Danny being honest about being scared that Steve isn't taking his radiation poisoning seriously to the point it keeps him awake at night and steve replying that he's scared too but that he doesn't want Danny to change because he loves him the way he is and that he does take things seriously URHGH

THE GROWTH! The genuinely healthy communication! I'm so proud of them 🥹

ep 7

- no no no what is going on between adam and kono? My breakup senses are tingling and I don't like it

- I swear the way Adam and Steve's conversation in the car went is so "let's talk about our respective marriages" coded

Like honestly it's so blatantly obvious - they are literally paralleling mcdanno to kono and adam ffs

- hey and come on adam you too? Why does everyone need to shit on the restaurant thing

- haha Steve is mad people he cares about just walk into a dangerous situation without backup - I love how this season confronts Steve with his own behavior

-hmm l don't know how to feel about Lou literally deleting evidence to protect tani, really most of their shady "police work" really didn't age well

- damn Steve killed a cop, that's definitely gonna fuck with him

- love how Lou is looking out for everyone, he just is the team grandpa

- sooo adam is gonna join five 0 right? This is what all this is about isn't it?

- I swear I am trying to care about junior and tani and what's going on with them but Idk so far I haven't really warmed up to them

ep 8

- eyyy Danny is back and calls Steve babe within 1 min into the episode? This can only be a good one

- nvm I swear to God Steve if you crash land yet another plane-

Seriously dude? Haven't you learned your lesson from the last time?

- naww Danny is so proud of Steves character development, sure hope he isn't gonna do something dumb and risky and ruin it again

- okay so tani and junior huh? They're definitely gonna be a thing soon aren't they

- the dude was killed because he was hiding from a drug cartel that he snitched on and fled with the drug lords daughter, I swear all these people always have the most dramatic backstories

- aaaand steve is doing the dumb reckless thing, Danny my guy I feel you're pain, he is so done with his shit he doesn't even yell at him anymore

- Danny is such a fucking saint, Steve almost went and got himself killed AGAIN and all he cares about is being last and danny husband of the fucking year just goes "yeah yeah you did well let's get a beer maverick"

- okay tani and her brother are kinda cute in their peek sibling behavior, I feel bad now for calling her a kono replacement, girl is much more than that

ep 9

- damn love Jerry's new haircut

- I will never get tiered of Danny and steve bickering about the restaurant, I know they are setting it up to fail but I genuinely think this could have been a good thing to eventually end the show on, like a retirement thing, but oh well

- aww I love Danny trying to comfort neolani with something Steve told him, only to have it backfire and make him anxious again

- pfffff and tani and junior sit in the far back like literal children

- oh great we're doing the biological warfare stuff again, this should be fun

- so they only have 8 hours to live? sounds like a prime love confession set up to me

- love our respective couples comforting each other, have to say tani and junior are doing a way better job tho like seriously Steve "try not to die while I take this call okay?" that's the best you can do, seriously?

- and of course Danny's all time stress response is to bitch about or at Steve, stellar coping skills all around

- omg danny did not just say-and steve didn't - OMG is it actually-

-nvm of course it's a fake out, damn it after 7 season why do I still keep falling for this shit

-the little restaurant talk Danny started to distract Steve and himself with was pretty sweet tho

- hey, wait why is Danny the only one definitely close to death? The others all seem relatively fine

- and of course Steve has to go and needlessly risk himself, so junior has to safe both their ass's instead of him just doing it on his own in the first place

- excuse me people why are there not more fanfics about the crew stuck in quarantine together?? this shit is hilarious and has so much potential for angst!

Please if anyone has some great fic recommendations send them my way please!

-no come on Danny, Steve didn't wanna upset you! That's honestly a pretty mature thing given the situation you were in, and now their arguing

- poor tani and junior they be stuck with these two idiots for a long time

- I could really see tani, just snapping at them after two days to either kill each other or fuck it out already, because their whole shebang is just exhausting for everyone

ep 10

-AHHHHH they finally opened the restaurant!? Progress!

- why does the screen look weird? Please don't let this be a dream type thing

- "Right now grandma Williams is smiling down at you" awww Steve, that is so sweet🥹

- nooo it's a dream thing 😭

- love how everyone makes fun of Steves near mental breakdown haircut, really dude it looks terrible, why does no one stop him?

- wow you really gonna give em kids the judgemental stares for flirting? Steve Danny as if you're any better

- and of course they're getting jumped in freaking quarantine

- really the dude went through all that trouble, just to kill Danny? And didn't even try aiming for the head? amateur

- aww Danny imagining grace wedding, my heart <3

- Danny is hurt, Steve is freaking loosing it, I'm so here for this

- Lou really said "sir, you better have a plan soon because if you don't Steve will come up with one, and only God can help us if that happens" I love you so much Lou

- huh so Danny thinks Charlie will be a cop? That's interesting

- awww and of course Steve is there, sitting next to him like a good husband, and the rest of the ohana

- nooo Danny being there for kono and adams first kid, that is so wholesome 😭

- Steve is straight up having a terrible time, while Danny has some idealistic feverdream about the future, this is so fun

- excuse me Steve you fingering your husband does absolutely not make you even for the liver thing, you nut

- so there gonna blow up a bomb right next to another bomb? Sure that seems reasonable

- yes Lou! Get the sledge hammer!

- poor Eric, don't worry hun we still have 2 seasons left to go Danny will be fine

- no NO you cannot- you did not just show me that while Danny's dying the last thing he hallucinates about is having grown old with Steve 🥺

- "and if I could do it all over again I wouldn't change a thing" I'm done, this is it, that line just killed me 😭❤️

- excuse me, Danny is dying and you people are choosing NOW to tease Steve about his stupid haircut? Seriously??!

- yes everyone copes differently I guess, but when Steve's life was on the line no one was joking around is all I'm saying

- yes Danny Steve saved your life by fingering you, deal with it XD poor Eric is scarred for life

- love Danny genuinely getting some love for once, this was a good episode

[kinda-ok]

The way that they very not subtly parallel Tani and junior to mcdanno…

[jake-is-screaming-in-tune]

[trickster-archangel]

I know they're talking about Junior and Magnum, but honestly?

For an episode where Danny was absent, his presence was put into such glowing light by everyone, but especially by Steve who couldn't let the parallel between himself and Danny, and Magnum/Higgins go to waste. No Sir.

So yeah, Higgins is talking about Magnum and Tani is thinking about Junior (whom we know she'll ask out for a date at the end of the episode), but do they really think we're so stupid we can't do math and see whom else this rule can be applied to?

Someone at work who makes you happy

Someone at work who brings a little light into your life

...so if you find such a person, then then you should pursue this feeling.

She said it.

tani: how long does it take for your body to start hallucinating from sleep deprivation?

steve: i believe–

danny: 75 hours

steve: how do you–

danny: there's a clown behind you

Whumptober 2024 - No.8 ISOLATION CHAMBER

Hawaii Five-0 8x10 Danny is shot while the team is in quarentine after being exposed to a deadly virus

@whumptober

[anonymousmoth43]

My honest opinion for Hawaii 5-0 season 8-9:

It’s not worth watching. Danny is barely in it, the plot is all over and it’s either drawn out or forgotten about, they also ruined a lot of storylines. It’s bad. I love Junior and Jerry though, it’s fun to have their screen time. I want to love Tani but I don’t, she’s very much ‘social media feminist’ and Mary Sue. I think she had a lot of potential but she’s an extremely dry and pick me type character for the most part, I will say though that the few times she’s an actual character I did like her. I think the end of season 7 is a good stopping point, we get to meet the new characters but nothing is ‘ruined’ yet.

[neanderthal-pessimist]

H50 9x23 Junior is about to do something stupid and Tani is like “dude? dont do that”, and Danny is like “that’s what Steve does every day, now you know how i feel”. only thing is, earlier in the episode everyone [yes Danny too] is clearly implying that Tani and Junior are in love and are going to the wedding as a romantic couple. so hes basically comparing this soon-to-be romantic couple to their partnership.

And then Danny is LITERALLY telling Tani to “have fun” with Junior while “she’s still young” cause now he’s “old” and it’s too late for him. implying he’s too old to start dating Steve, that it would be too much change. then later in the episode, Lou claims steve is “old” too. reminding us of the conversation Tani and Danny exchanged earlier. (we’re not gonna talk about how similar their name is)

PLUS earlier in the episode, Steve told Mary that “he doesn’t fight for love” the way he should. and then at the end, steve and danny just bicker cause they’re so clearly in love.

Also, during the wedding, someone mistakes Tani and Junior for a couple, and then Tani acts jealous when the girl wants to flirt with him. again, very mcdanno coded.

Anyway. those might not be the exact dialogues since im watching it in french but whatever. gay rights.

[agentbootyreportingforduty]

FAN QUESTION: who is the strongest actor on hawaii five-0? (to you personally)

I’m so curious what the fandom’s general thoughts are! p.s. this is purely about acting talent, not about whether the character and/or storylines are “good” or not. it’s how they take the script and character narrative and make it their own. acting can be subjective so just vote with your heart. pretend this is the fake h50 oscar awards.

I put the main cast as options until the maximum tumblr allows, but if there’s someone I couldn’t fit that you think is the most talented, name them in the tags! there’s no right or wrong here, I just like seeing interesting discourse so feel free to explain your thoughts or debate in the replies 😌

Hawaii five 0 s8 commentary:

Part 1.

ep 1 x s8

- five 0 really do love introducing female characters in bikinis, or were they trying to make it even more obvious that tani is the new kono replacement?

- aww Danny asking Steve to be his partner in the whole restaurant thing is very sweet

- the torch is back again? Kinda thought his story was complete after the prison break with Adam, didn't he have this whole speech about being better of in prison?

- okay Steve worrying about tani being reckless and her not taking any of his shit and Danny being all "see, now you know how I feel all the time" is very funny

- oh so now you realize going into the middle of a raging wild fire was a bad idea, who would have thought?

- damn Danny is so used to Steve's bullshit he doesn't even fight it anymore

- they- he's taking the entire house? He's taking the entire house

- wow they're making it very very obvious that tani is supposed to be the new kono, okay

- omg so call me nuts but why does the whole restaurant thing feel like a weird metaphor for Steve and danny setteling down together? They talk like their gonna marry- I feel like I'm hallucinating

ep 2

- I may be a cat person but that is one cute dog- and he has such a nice owner and - oh no I know how this is gonna go

- nononono don't hurt the doggo! IS HE GONNA BE OKAY?!

- don't show me this fucking junior guy I need to know if the dog is okay!

- Steve what do you mean, you've never been married? You and danny have been basically married for at least 5 years now. And since when are you uncomfortable talking about Steve's feelings Danny?? what are you two talking about??

- yes finally someone goes looking for the poor puppy! Oh no the poor baby's hurt 🥺Tho I'm a little confused I thought Danny was the dog person? Why is Steve suddenly so invested and not danny? Did the powers that be forget the whole Mr. Pickles thing?

- people how am I supposed to care about the plot if I don't know if the dog is gonna make it!

- poor eddie is such a good boy, I would literally die for him 🥺 he's gonna be okay! oh thank goodness

- "I thought you were a cat person " (thank you Danny!)

"I guess he grew on me"

Steve why you looking at Danny while saying that? Don't tell me the dog is supposed to be a parallel to him

-god damn it, pets mourning their lost owners always gets me :'(

ep 3

- I swear the whole restaurant thing feels like Steve and danny planning their wedding-

Kamekona did not just pull out a mcdanno shirt -

I can't with this show anymore

- eyyyy bootleg James bond is back! And steve is talking about "our" retirement plan? Just make them an official married couple already!

- come on Harry, you don't gotta roast their restaurant idea like that especially after they agreed to let you tagalong

- I love how mcdanno exchange judging looks whenever Harry trys to sweet talk someone, true couple goals right there

- man the whole police-violence-played-for-laughs-thing especially against poc really didn't age well

- okay so 10 bucks harry's the secret bad guy

- eww no don't flirt with tani harry, that's just weird! I swear what is it with Hollywood and old men hitting on girls that aren't even half their age

- Damn Harry really just went and called Steve and danny out for for being in love and unable to live without each other and they didn't deny anything

- okay nvm Harry isn't the bad guy it's just some random dude who lost a kid, and apparently Harry lost someone important to him?

- naww they boys are cooking for them- aaand fighting - oh man, this could have been such a nice little gesture, why you gotta ruin it for a joke? I mean I know their probably just setting up the restaurant idea failing which- I'm kinda sad about because it could have been an actual nice retirement thing to end the show on somewhere down the line, but I guess not

ep 4

- I love how Lou talks to steve like he's making an investment without asking his husband (which let's be real he definitely is)

- the use of the term "partner" is becoming more and more ambiguous by the second

- rip toast he was a nice dude, at least before he became loaded

- naww not Steve being all smug about Danny calling Hawaii home

- no kamekona! don't hurt him🥺

- better call your son dude you don't fuck with Steve's family

- kamekona really did a fuck tone of good ever since he made it out of prison, it's really nice that he finally gets some recognition for that

- so junior is homeless? Really explains a lot of stuff about why he's so desperate to be five 0

-aww and steve adopts him right away and tani too, the man really does collect strays like Pokémon

ep 5

- aw grace brought Steve a pumpkin for Halloween? guess she's growing up to be a Halloween lover just like her dad

- so 10 min in and already Alicia triggered Steve's mommy-issues

-Alicia honey, Steve has like five adopted children already and is a pretty intense dude maybe it be good to have someone else take care of your deeply traumatized daughter if this doesn't go well?

- tani:"so there's this hot demi-god"

"top or bottom?" Danny asking the important question

- love me some good folklore inspired murders

- so the clay maxwell thing still isn't over? poor Lou hasn't the guy has put him through enough?

- I love that their bringing eddie along everywhere now, he's the best new addition to the team <3

- so love that Danny is also along for them search of the killer but isn't that kind of a bad idea with his busted arm?

-huh tani and junior are clicking fast guess there's a romance about to happen

- hey and Lou is finally getting closure for the dian thing, that's great!
