#body-swap

[girl4music]

XENA: “Gabrielle, I’m proud of you. Even when you thought Callisto was going to kill me, you couldn’t-“

GABRIELLE: “No, Xena. No. When I thought she was going to kill you, I just reacted. That’s something I have to think about if it happened again. I know what I would want to do but yet I can’t go back on who I am. You taught me that.”

XENA: “No, you learned that. That’s the difference.”

I know they couldn’t keep the original script with Lucy instead of Hudson but I just prefer this dialogue a lot more to what we actually got. Yeah, you could say it was longwinded but I felt that was appropriate for Gabrielle because she would overthink about that. See, Xena’s just so quick to assume that Gabrielle makes a conscious choice every time to not result to violence.

But she doesn’t. It’s her heart that rules her, not her head. And her heart said protect Xena. It always does.

Whatever the story was when it was Lucy’s script…

I think I would have much preferred it to what we got.

Not to take away anything from Hudson. I mean she was phenomenal as Xena for both episodes but… I just felt they needed a stronger story and I feel like that’s what they started with if this ending dialogue is any indication. Because this is something that continues. This becomes her main individual arc. I love that arc.

It is interesting to me that they wanted to do the body-swap episode anyway though and that it wasn’t just conceived because of Lucy’s pelvis injury on Jay Leno.

In theory they could have kept it as Lucy since they ended up shooting the whole episode with Lucy but then that would make you question why Hudson is suddenly Xena in the next episode when they had already resolved the body-swap. They had to replace those scenes with Hudson’s for continuity purposes. Making it out as if Xena never got her own body back.

Clever but damn… that dialogue scene before they started improvising and goofing around at the end.

Yeah, I really wish that had been left in or at least made a comeback in some other episode because that was important dialogue to help you understand Gabrielle and why being a warrior in love or a lover in war is hard.

I know it’s only early days addressing that but it still works because that’s exactly what ends up happening.

I mean she’s faced with that same dilemma over and over again all throughout her arc. Especially with Xena.

Fight or flight. Act or react.

Do nothing or disable/kill.

It’s very important dialogue.

And it’s one of the major factors as to what makes her my favourite character with the most compelling arc.

They have many dialogue scenes like this eventually. But… something about this one just hit it on the head.

Because it’s true. She never employs her mind when faced with rock and hard place situations like that.

She just reacts on instinct. As all warriors do…

“I chose the way of friendship.” she said in ‘Ides’.

No, girl. You didn’t. Your warrior instincts kicked in.

You didn’t “choose” anything. That was adrenaline.

You saw that your love was about to be killed and your body went into high-gear “Protect and Defend” mode and it did not stop until you realized where you were at. If that was a conscious choice from the start, you never would have hurled that javelin at that Roman soldier. You never would have saved Xena’s life and you know it.

By some supernatural accident, Batman and Superman swap bodies. But the accident was just so embarassing that they collectively decided to NOT tell anyone about, and figure out how to reverse it all on their own. But, unfortunately, this means they now have to keep up this farce in front of their families

Clark, in Bruce's body, wiping some blood off his mouth and wincing at the 15 cracked ribs he now has: Guess I can bleed, huh

Dick, staring in disbelief after the patrol: YES OFCOURSE YOU CAN!? WHY THE HELL DID YOU THROW YOURSELF DIRECTLY ON TOP OF A GRENADE-

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Bruce, in Clark's body, squinting at the bright smallville sun at the Kent farm: This is way too much for 11 am

Jon, staring at his newly grumpy dad: I think batman is a bad influence on you, dad

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Clark in Bruce's body, staring at his reflection in the mirror: The shoulder to waist ratio is insane, such a grabbable waist

Poor Tim, who accidentally overheard this, getting ready to call Arkham: Uhuh it's definitely, insane

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kon: And so I said, ofcourse, i would love the soup-er salad!

Bruce in Clark's body, deadpan expression on his face:

Kon: Get it? Soup-er salad?

Bruce: Yes

Kon, sad puppy expression: You always laugh at soup puns :(

Bruce, now with an Extremely Forced little smile: Yes it was very....funny

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Clark, in Bruce's body, rushing to hug a visibly bleeding Jason who walked into the cave after patrol: What happened?! Are you okay?

Jason, freezing up because the last time Bruce ran to hug him was, never:

Clark, immediately backing up, and speaking with a deliberately gruff voice: I mean. Is the blood yours? Son.

Jason:...no

Dick: My body is fine! What do you mean??? You aren‘t the one who needs to consume an unholy amount of caffeine to function!

Jason: I feel like someone is about to push me off a fucking cliff, Dickhead.

Dick: *grins suddenly*

Dick: Ohhhh. Lemme fix that for you, Little Wing.

Dick: *walks up to Jason and hugs him tightly*

Jason: *relaxes before tensing up*

Jason: WAIT. YOU NEED HUGS TO FUNCTION?!?!

Not sure if you do requests, but...

If you don't mind, I would love a little Body Swap between Ink, Blue, and Dream. Cause I think it would be funny.

This was very silly to draw ty for the request

nothing personal but this kind of comment rlly exemplifies to me a disconnect between canon and popular fanon jmart characterization because they almost literally had this conversation in canon - except, their lines are swapped!

jon, for all his scared grouchiness, is a secret romantic, while martin, for all his forced optimism, is at his core a pragmatist

Wrong Spell... A sequel- 😭😂

I've finally drawn my Aziraley chilling in the bath full of holy water 💅💛💧

Hope you will like it as much as Crowziraphale ✨

I'm so happy to share it, I was scared because I thought Aziraphale in the bath would be so less interesting but...it's my fav now lmao

But I will always cherish Crowley in the hellfire, it was my very first fanart and my first real contact with this fandom 💚

The thing that I love the most about Doctor Who is that it’s just SOOOOOO bad. It’s awful. It’s dreadful. It’s cheesy and stupid and terrible. It has dialogue like “I am the beep of all the meeps!” It’s truly the most embarrassing cringeworthy thing you’ve ever seen. It’s been that way for 60 years. It’s gonna be that way for another 60. It doesn’t matter what kind of budget or fan base they receive. It’s always gonna be this stupid.

I love it so fucking much.
