#but man this is a tough one is2g

[addictedtostorytelling]

Hi! Hope you had a great holiday break and all the best in NY! This is just me thinking that Grissom wasn’t too concerned when Sara was losing weight due to stress. Don’t you think his ‘ever heard of a sandwich’ was a bit dismissive and sarcastic? Like here she is being concerned even when he just looks a little tired and he doesn’t seem too bothered when his already slim wife is getting even thinner. Unless he’s feeding her in bed later and we just weren’t lucky enough to see it.

hi, anon!

thank you for the kind wishes! same right back to you.

i'll admit that sandwich line is not my favorite—it's one of very few ooc moments of the reboot, imo—but i still think it's a bit of a leap to go from “this bit of dialogue doesn’t actually sound like something grissom would say to sara” to “grissom doesn't care about sara's health.”

while definitely not phrased as well as it could have been, the quip was his way of broaching the issue of his concern with her. when her ring fell off, she acted like she didn't know why it had, so he was essentially being like, “you're stressed, so you haven't been eating enough. you mean you’re not even aware that that’s what’s happening here? that’s a problem.” he was calling the issue to her attention.

again, he could have communicated his concern better, but the concern was present in the fact that he'd noticed what was going on with her enough to be able to fill in that blank.

we don't really get to see any follow up on the issue of sara's weight loss after this scene, so we don't know how either grissom or sara handle things going forward.

for all we know, grissom starts making a point to keep sara on a more regular meal schedule from then on. maybe he comes back to their hotel suite every night with a veggie burger. maybe we just don’t get to see him do so on screen.

however, as the issue is never mentioned again after this episode—and sara’s ring doesn’t seem to keep falling off after grissom returns it to her outside of the courthouse—i think it’s a pretty safe bet to say that one way or another (whether by grissom’s intervention or her own action or some combination of those two efforts) sara doesn’t keep dropping weight and may even recoup the few pounds she’d lost previously. 

ultimately, it doesn’t seem to be an ongoing problem, much less a significant health concern.

moreover, speaking to the idea that grissom cares less for sara’s well-being than she does for his, i think we need only look to grissom’s actions in this episode to see that that notion is simply not true.

as i talk about in this post,

we see his distress [over sara] evident in his comments about her not eating and also in some of his lingering somber looks at her, plus his determination to find the ring for her in itself.

he knows her so well, and he knows how deep her upset throughout the events of this episode runs, and he’s really (albeit quietly) worried about her—particularly as he’s aware that her true underlying worry here has to do with the case and its potential repercussions (“you weren’t really that worried about the ring?”).

just like in the early seasons of the show, he used to fret about her getting her heart set on certain case outcomes, lest she end up heartbroken when things didn’t turn out (see episodes 01x10 “sex, lies, & larvae,” 01x16 “too tough to die,” and 07x18 “empty eyes,” for example), he’s got the same concerns here—only he knows the stakes are much higher.

he can tell she’s beating herself up for not being able to get the solve.

unfortunately, he can’t really do more than he’s already done to try to take care of that bigger problem for her, so all he can do is deal with the small stuff—to find her lost ring—and hope that once he does, she’ll feel somewhat better.

that man is so sweet, is2g.

grissom finding her lost ring is him doing what he can to take care of her. 

as always, his love language is not one of word but of deed.

while his verbal communication often comes out wrong (and does so with his poorly articulated “ever heard of a sandwich?” question, for sure), his actions prove where his heart truly lies. throughout this episode, he applies himself to solving the hodges case, which is the major source of sara’s anxiety; he also rubs her shoulders to alleviate the tension in her body; makes cute jokes to get her to smile (if only for a moment); and ultimately finds her ring so that there’s one less thing for her to worry about. 

man loves his wife and looks out for her always.

one bonehead quip from him doesn’t change that.

thanks for the question! please feel welcome to send another any time.

🌵Flower Shop AU🌷

Hyunjin + Changbin

it's my first time doing this type of content so please reblog and put in the tags what you think and maybe i'll do more!!

and @versekiller wanted a HyunBin au so i gave her one

so changbin's family owns a flower shop

they live above their shop and its super cute

the flower shop is really popular because of that ONE worker

yes that worker is changbin

reason number 1 is bc he is always smiling

all the ladies (young and old) love him so much

HE ALSO WEARS A DIFFERENT COLOURED FLOWER PRINT SHIRT EVERY SINGLE DAY

it's because he doesnt want to ruin the perfect flower aesthetic image of the shop if he only wears black lmao

he started working in the shop during one of his school holidays and his mum basically persuaded him to continue working there bc he brings in so many people

okok so lets start

since changbin wears a different coloured flower print each day

he wore a yellow one one day

but it wasnt flower printed

IT WAS CACTUS PRINTED

he didnt know it because he had to open the shop early that day and was basically half asleep putting on his clothes

he was still doing a great job tho selling loads of flowers to the regulars that day

so changbin was minding his own business sitting at the front of the shop snipping off thorns from roses since there were lesser customers

he was lookin cute wearing his cactus shirt, his apron and his gloves

and he's got his own music (3RACHA obvies) playing in the background

something interrupted his flow

IT WAS A FLASH AND A CLICK

but changbin LOOKS AT THE DAMN SKY

why?

he thought it was lightning and that it was gonna rain

he has to pull out the shelter thingy over the flowers if it does rain

a precious dumbass

but the skies were super blue that day, not even a cloud in the sky

so changbin was like

Eh? Where did that come from?

He looked around before spotting another boy

The other boy was holding a camera and only wearing black

he basically stood out from all the other colourful shops in that lane so he was easy to spot

Changbin chuckled a little looking at the dudes bucket hat (hm i wonder who) but tried to cover it up with a cough

Camera dude panicked and almost dropped his camera

boi he aint slick at all

Changbin took off his gloves and wiped his hands on his apron before approaching the dude

(lmao he forgot he was snipping off thorns)

SO BASICALLY HE ACCIDENTALLY SCRATCHED HIMSELF BUT HE DIDNT KNOW YET

Changbin walks up to the dude and asks if he wanted to buy any flowers (his mum would kill him if he didnt do customer service)

Camera dude was all flustered and held out his hand

"NWLDJWONN SORRY FOR TAKING THE PHOTO OF YOU ITS JUST THAT THE SHOP JUST LOOKED REALLY PRETTY AND I HAVE TO TAKE IT FOR A PROJECT"

Changbin tilted his head back and looked up at the tall camera boy

"nah man its alright we get that a lot, do you still want flowers tho?"

AND CHANGBIN WENT TO SHAKE HIS HAND AND WHEN HE LET IT GO

THERE WAS LIKE BITS OF BLOOD

"Wait omg shit im so sorry i didnt know i scratched myself"

so here we have two boys panicking over blood before changbin's mum called

its not a lot of blood but if u shake someone hand with your own blood its kinda weird

"BINNIE WHO IS THAT, IS IT A FRIEND"

Changbin looked back at his mum and showed her his hand

But camera dude answered back "Hello Auntie, i'm Hyunjin and I think Binnie just cut his hand and theres some blood"

BEODSNDKN CHANGBIN BLUSHED BECAUSE CAMERA DUDE CALLED HIM BINNIE

"Bring him in the shop binnie"

SoooOooO camera dude followed behind Changbin into the shop to wash his hands

"Sorry for getting blood on your hands Hyunjin"

"Thats ok binnie" and Hyunjin flashed a really cute smile which made changbin all shy

BUT CHANGBIN TRYNA ACT FAKE TOUGH

"Please call me Changbin, my mum calls me Binnie just to embarrass me"

"But Binnie sounds cuter" is2g hyunjin is so smooth im gonna die

so they finished washing their hands and hyunjin looks around the shop

"Do you mind if i take more photos outside the store, the flowers are really pretty"

in changbin's head he's all like "Omg what is this dude on about he is even prettier than the flowers we sell oh my"

irl, changbin just nods his head and goes back to his seat at the front of the store snipping off more thorns

Hyunjin was snapping lots of photos of the flowers and the store and then he suddenly laughed

"Binnie you stand out from the flowers so much with that yellow cactus shirt"

Changbin was all confuzzled and hyunjin showed him the photo

The photo had changbin in it and all the flowers were behind him

changbin was the main focus of the photo

HO DAMN ITS A GOOD ASS PHOTO THO

"Hey youre a pretty good photographer"

"Well you are a pretty good focus point"

"What"

changbin turned to face hyunjin and OOPS

THEIR FACES WERE SO CLOSE LIKE IN THAT ONE EPISODE OF STRAY CUTS

Hyunjin has his eyes covered by his bucket hat so changbin couldnt see what hyunjin was staring at

TRUTH WAS HYUNJIN WAS TRYING NOT TO STARE AT THE PHOTO OR ELSE HE'LL GET ALL FIDGETY AND BLUSHY

HE WAS ALSO TRYNA LEAN AWAY FROM CHANGBINS PRESENCE

"Do you wanna bring any of the flowers home, if you wanna take more photos of them"

"Can I have some cactuses?" hyunjin asked bashfully

ok so if camera dude wants a cactus imma get him one so changbin looked around the store to find

hyunjin was lowkey disappointed changbin didnt get his pickup line

"Oh man, I dont think theres any cacti left tho" Changbin was super apologetic that he couldnt get cute camera dude a cactus

Hyunjin pointed at Changbin's shirt and waited for his response

CHANGBIN HAD TO PROCESS

damn he a slow one tho

So Hyunjin straight up said "Do you wanna get some coffee sometime?"

CHANGBIN.EXE HAS STOPPED WORKING

Changbin: "You're not expecting me to bring flowers arent you"

Hyunjin: "I'll bring a cactus for you dont worry, are you gonna show up in another printed shirt?"

"maybe"

if u listen carefully changbin's mum is giggling at the background with changbin's dad

the next time they met changbin was wearing a black shirt with red roses on them

and hyunjin was still wearing the black bucket hat

HE FORGOT TO BRING A CACTUS BECAUSE CHANGBIN'S STORE DIDNT HAVE ANY

[tori10rambles]

So I just finished Chapter 97, which is where the Yuuei teachers get permission for the students to live at on-campus dorms. Gonna go to bed soon, and pick up tomorrow.

Opinions on things under the cut.

Arc Commentary:

Entrance Exam (1-4): The intro to Izuku was great, honestly? I love that it’s Quirkless Izuku, who doesn’t want to give up on his dream, who wants to save people, to meet All Might and gain One for All. Also, the intro the the universe is pretty cool?

Quirk Apprehension Test (5-10): In which I learned about Aizawa being a hardass, but a well meaning one. because honestly, I’m amazed Aizawa gave Izuku a chance to prove he could adapt to OfA so quickly. Any other kid who continuously hurt himself to use his Quirk should be considered a liability. Not that Izuku isn’t, but he clearly adapted quickly enough.

Battle Trial (8-11): That Izuku vs. Bakugo fight. So good. Also, Todoroki just... one-shotting the entire thing on his own looked so cool, even if it lack basically all of the teamwork heavily implied.

USJ (12-21): Shit gets real fast. And I love it. Also, badass Aizawa, the kids being awesome despite the unexpected attack, and some proof that Yuuei’s staff are actually really cool when they’re not... you know... stuck in a classroom teaching.

Sports Festival (22-44): Holy shit guys. Todoroki vs. Midoriya. That was the best about the entire arc. I watched that entire fight in GLORIOUS 1080p on my family’s flatscreen, and it did NOT disappoint. The animators deserve mad props for the animation in the climax of the fight. It’s just, so good when we do a side-by-side comparison to the manga (as in, so faithful. I am BLESSED). Also, where I learned that Endeavor is a bastard who needs to die in a ditch and stay away from his kids and wife.

Hero Killer (45-59): Stain is surprisingly intriguing, because the dude’s got charisma. And he’s proof that not all villains are in it for the Evulz. He’s more of an antivillain to me? I do feel like the various villains joining the League of Villains because they were inspired by him would piss him off though. The brOTP of Midoriya, Todoroki, and Iida was so good though? And Izuku learning how to use Full Cowl!

Final Exam (60-69): More teachers being badass! And students growing! Just, everything about Aizawa vs. Todoroki and Momo was amazing, from Aizawa being an unexpected softy (and still badass), to Todoroki being supportive of Momo when her self esteem becomes a problem, to Momo being awesome with her Quirk once she gets her confidence back. Also, Bakugo and Izuku against All Might. just... so good.

School Trip (70-83): Obligatory training camp arc! Only, you know, it all goes to hell in a handbasket. But the kids are surprisingly good at dealing with this shit as it pops up, although Izuku being reckless with himself is forever gonna be something I lament (maybe he internalized the idea that he was worth less than others because he lacked a Quirk? And he still thinks it subconsciously because 10 years worth of behavior cannot be replaced in like... 1 year?)

Hideout Raid (84-97): The kids going on a rescue mission, and not getting into a fight. All Might retiring because he fucked himself over for the good of others and to stop All for One. Bakugou being the obstinate shit we all knew he was. Aizawa being confident in Bakugou’s morals. Just... so good.

Favorite Characters (so far):

Momo: badass, smart, awesome quirk, and she’s just... so cute? idk i just love how she’s shown to be cool and awesome and still be anxious and insecure like any other 15 year old. Also, even though she has a fanservicey costume, it’s for a reason, and it WORKS.

Tsuyu: idek? i just really like her? So calm, so collected. Also, just so freaking deadpan. I just really appreciate her cool head in a crisis.

Todoroki: I mean, he uses fire and ice, is kind of a dork, deserves all the hugs (and for his dad to go die in a ditch). And he’s pretty. He matches many of the (very general) requirements for my Favorite Character Type (mentioned in these tags)

Izuku: my god. This fanboy who actually made it by working his ass off. This guy who cares so damn much. I want to adopt him (you know, if his mom weren’t as awesome as she was, and my being a little under a decade older than him). Badass Adorable for sure. Those freckles... so cute! (also meets one of the Favorite Character Requirements in these tags)

All Might: More like Dad Might, honestly. because that’s who I really like. Not the super muscle-bound, #1 hero, but the scrawny, sickly guy who cares so damn much for his kids. He’s adopted all of them, is2g.

Aizawa: BADASS. I screech every time he gets serious because honestly, the guy has a Quirk that is really not useful for fighting multiple opponents? But he does anyway? And is AWESOME AT IT? Also, he cares so damn much for his students despite his hardass exterior. Basically, I’m saying Dadzawa. But like, the stern, tough love Dad instead of doting Dad.

Other Interesting Characters (so far):

In all honesty, most of Class 1-A??? They’re all such good kids (except Mineta).

Tenya: socially awkward nerd boy is my jam, because I can relate. But mostly it’s because he’s adorkable.

Tokoyami: Dark Shadow is amazing, and I like birds.

Bakugou: Okay, I gotta admit, his personality was not my favorite in the beginning. In fact, I wanted to just punch him in the face. But you know what? I love the fact that I get why he’s that way. I love that it’s because he’s set himself to this unreachable standard, that his issues are mostly due to his own pride and the things in his head, and not a hugely traumatic event. because there are people just like Bakugou out there, and it’s so relatable. And I actually kind of like how the narrative is forcing him to confront his issues. Because despite being good with his Quirk and at fighting villains, he’s still ending up in jam after jam, and the reasons always have nothing to do with what he perceives as a weakness. And while I would love to see someone call him out for the shitty things he’s done to Izuku, I feel like with the way the story is going, it isn’t the appropriate time for that yet. Basically, the kid’s a relatable asshole and his slow character development is realistic and just very good evidence that the universe thinks he can be better if he’s willing to try. I’m still not exactly fond of him, but I could get there if we see more character development (and an actual apology for his shitty behavior towards Izuku).

Ochako: I love her motivation for being a hero. Because being a hero doesn’t mean you can’t also make sure that the ones you love are safe and comfortable first. Heroes are still human after all.

Shinsou: this boy. someone replace Mineta with this boy. Tiny Purple Pervert for Awesome Purple Walking-Imperio. His Quirk is really cool, and would be hella useful, but the goddamn Yuuei entrance exam basically fucked him over. Plus, you know, a non-front line/offensive Quirk belonging to a decent person just seems more attractive to me than a Quirk that while useful, belongs to a boy with a pervert streak so odious that I’m surprised no one’s hurled him into the sun.

Not So Cool Characters:

ENDEAVOR: This man. This Man. THIS MAN can go rot in the deepest, darkest corner of Marianas Trench. I NEED to know how the hell no one took ONE GOOD LOOK AT TODOROKI and ask about the burn. I need to know how the hell the “#2 Hero” can get away this something this disgusting. The worst part? All the shit he’s done to his family, from abusing Todoroki to putting his wife into a mental hospital due to his abuse, was for nothing, because he DIDN’T beat All Might. All Might RETIRED.

Mineta: How did this little pervert make into the Heroics course? Better yet, how has he not been expelled for his sexual harassment of his female classmates???? Like, he's groped Tsuyu, “convinced” the girls to wear skimpy cheerleading uniforms, has tried to peek on them twice... Just, I am so offended that he gets to stick around and not be punished for his very un-heroic actions.

Monoma: Dude... just SHUT UP about 1-A being more well known than 1-B. I get the inferiority complex and the jealousy, but rubbing every perceived failure of 1-A’s in their faces is hardly heroic.

Other thoughts:

So, I blame tvtrope’s fanfic rec list for making me dive into BNHA fanfic hell, but I just kind of love the chatfic(/crackfics) that have been popping up. And anything that roasts Endeavor.

Also, TodoDeku. I’m so down for TodoDeku, honestly??? It probably won’t be canon, and I can see setup for TodoMomo and IzuOcha, which I’ll be okay with, but TODODEKU is my OTP.

Ok so I know this is a V E R Y odd time b/c I legit just met you but; any advice for those unfortunate souls who contain little to no 'swagger', 'pride', or legit confidence? I'm caught in a tough place at the moment ;w; Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you so much! -volatile!anon

Oh gosh. I am not really sure what the advice is FOR tbh cause its like four in the morning and im zombie-ing my way around tumblr but....If the question is how to have more confidence or 'swagger' I aint sure you're coming to the right place because im the most awkward motherfucker to grace planet earth is2g.I mean here online its easier for me idk why. Perhaps its because its, well, online; or maybe because i really love the community or whatever so here i can just be my obnoxious, foul-mouthed self but im usually not all this open.My advice tho.... ive realised one thing, and that is that for some reason when we are afraid to speak we end up making things really fucking awkward and hence making the problem worse. I'd just tell you to talk, try to invest in conversations and not let everyone else do all the speaking or picking topics or stuff. Dont apologize all the time (which i used to do a lot) and instead thank people if you have to. Idk try to connect with people by things you both like, or if you like something someone else does... tell them! Even if you dont manage to befriend them everyone likes to be complimented from time to time so no harm done.About the rest... idk man i can just say 'fake it till you make it'. And i dont mean your personality, just that you make yourself appear a little more confident and in the end by forcing yourself to be more outspoken and stuff you end up seeing that 'hey, people arent really that bad' or 'hey, they arent judging me' or 'hey, they dont really mind if I make a mistake.'Sorry for the rant tho but... idk the question was so general i didnt know xD hope things get better soon and honestly though i dont think i'll be able to say much to help you cause i suck at this if you still wanna ask maybe... specific stuff? Have a good day tho!
