"i hated owen for all/most of s1 i only started liking him in s2" weak. i liked owen since he got choked against a wall by an angry woman and then told her he wanted to shag her immediately afterwards. and then even more when he spent ep3 trying to intimidate and murder a rapist

#txt #torchwood posting #owen in the pilot? trash. but i tend to think ep3 was his comeuppance #anyway i was biased goin into tw but nonetheless. i loved him near immediately #i was like oh hermann from pr but hes a mean shitty little twink ohh???#oh hes fucked up! oh he has murder in his eyes and hes crying! oh im obsessed! and it spiraled from there #which is usually how it goes #sigh #but yeah ep3 was when i rllyyyy started to love owen #the obsession. the vigilantism. going against jack's orders.#that one shot where gwen looks at him and he looks dangerous #i think what got me was in ep1 we see torchwood broke suzie and pushed her to kill #so seeing that a second torchwood member was also at that point only two eps later #it was like ohhhhh. ohhh thats whats going on here #and then it's amplified like the end of s1 is just owen spiraling so hard he almost destroys the world. and it was fucking fantastic #even if the cgi was bad lmfao #s1s character arcs all have to do with exploring how that life breaks people. esp ppl who were already broken. as we find out in s2e12 #& owen's the best example he's sooo fucking mentally ill and self destructive and toxic and miserable and he means the fucking world to me #and then they threw it all away in s2 to make him palatable 😒#but thats a me problem. i do luv s2 owen just in a diff way #and im v fond of the undead arc #but s1 owen just hits diff for me. burn played him as a scared little boy and it rlly rlly shows #sss
