#but; no one remembers a coward

[chocolate-crab]

Maybe it was his smile. That big, goofy, absolutely ridiculous, shit-eating grin. Maybe it was his hands. Soft, with the ability to show intense love, and to take a life, cold and brutal. Perhaps it was his body, lanky and almost frail, yet incredibly powerful and so much stronger than hers.

~

It was in fact his eyes. For a man with focus on everything, be it the enemy with a sword against his throat or even a random cute girl on the street, he saw her. He didn't look past her. She existed in his eyes. And it was everything, to both of them.

Hey Sherlock fans —

Remember how Martin “We’re-All-A-Bit-Bisexual-In-Real-Life” Freeman, playing Watson in the Sherlock “drunk scene”, ad-libbed the line “I don’t mind”, and meant it in a sexy way with Sherlock?

Remember that? Because I remembered it randomly this morning and got irritated all over again at What Could Have Been and also in fact What Martin Freeman and Benedict Cumberbatch Could Have Really Done With That Show.

Damn imagine your birthday falling on Casual Friday and dying in THAT shirt. Unfortunate and deserved for his actions.

CONTEXT FOR THE SHIRT: My hometown is literally called “Cumming” I’m not kidding. And this is one of the shirts I’ve seen made for it.

This is very sketchy cause I drew it for fun. Wanted to try this perspective and was like: Oh yea I know the perfect guy I can draw who almost died in a car, and then died outside of said car.

Something I find hilarious is in this video (at 1:15), where Dan imagines an ideal version of himself, and something I find hilarious is that this fantasy version of him reads the thesaurus to "extend [his] vocabulary"... That is just... listen, I love him a lot, but that is just sooo cringe, I love that he somehow thinks its an intellectual thing to do. Stephenie Meyer ass

I wish I knew how to plan multi chapter fics because I have two bridgella fic ideas stuck in my head that can’t be written because I suck at planning.

Mayhaps it’s for the best cuz one of them is super dark. Which is saying something cuz they both involve Ella being kidnapped.

the concept of defeating many of the dragon priests alongside miraak after freeing him from apocrypha is both very interesting and very funny to me as a concept.

like imagine waking up from an eons long sleep ready to fight but your old coworker you assumed was dead (and who, unlike you, seems to be Very Much Not Undead) is there and he calls you a bootlicker in the ancient dragon tongue before he stabs you

imagine if we had the full depth of rhaenicent and laenyra... the homoerotic angst of it all. the jealousy and the sense of betrayal that Alicent would feel. The yearning and bond between Rhaenyra and Laena— but above all else, a sisterhood. Rhaenyra and Laena were present in each other’s milestones in motherhood.

Imagine Rhaenyra thinking, I wish I had this with Alicent. Alicent thinking Rhaenyra has betrayed her, how could she not try, put effort when I tried so hard??? the sisterhood and love is broken! All that I wanted for us, she does with Laena!

I hate how the show pit Nyra and Laena against each other. Had Laena feeling as the other woman. JUST SICK!!! They raised their children together, their children weren’t strangers—- I hate how the writers cut out so much, and changed details.

I wish Alicent and Rhaenyra mended their relationship, their kids got along at some point, but it came down to the expense of Aemond.

What I’m trying to say is that, yes, Laena, Alicent and Rhaenyra were their own persons. And each woman shouldn’t be seen as an accessory of the other— but their love was whitewashed a lot, and it breaks my heart.

We could have had it all, but the writers are cowards.

I'm sorry, but Eddie was shot in broad daylight and thought, "this is it, this is the last moment of my life," and he reached for Buck. He thought he was dying, and all he could do was look at Buck and reach.

Jack Marsh (2005), Friendship Otherwise - Toward a Levinasian Description of Personal Friendship

[imissthembutitwasntadisaster]

And for me there's very much something in TAD about how much performance is reality, we're introduced to the world of surgery as a performance, as ego, who can amputate faster but there's a real compassion there and it turns it on its head! Is Jack playing a part? Is Belle playing a part? To what extent if you claim you're a surgeon are you really a surgeon or are you doomed to be a thief? Are you doomed to be an invalid? (And I do think Belle's identity as an invalid is much more interesting than her identity as nobility btw but that's another post for another time).

And tbh I know it's funny that after having a single fight with Belle Jack goes back to thievery but it's much more about the fact he still does feel his performance is false, that he's just an escaped convict playing doctor, because he struggles to read and doesn't have formal training and isn't upper class and the dinner revealed that in a very painful, raw way. But we the audience know just because it is a performance in many ways, it's rooted in showmanship and flourishes and art and act, doesn't mean it's not real! Reality can be created and shaped perhaps.

I've reached season 5 on my CSI rewatch and I'm a few episodes past "Swap Meet", where a woman is murdered after attending a swing party with other couples from the neighbourhood. Near the end of the episode there's a moment that made me jump from my seat:

(Grissom walks up to Sara and takes the seat next to her. He's holding two cups. He hands her a cup of tea.)

[INT. POLICE DEPARTMENT - BRASS' OFFICE]

Erin Brady: Everybody fantasizes about other people. (She glances at Grissom.)

Even you, Mr. Grissom. A neighbor, a friend ... girl at the office.

[INT. POLICE DEPARTMENT - HALLWAY]

(The door opens. Paul Brady walks out of the hallway. Erin Brady walks out into the hallway. Sara is sitting in the hallway chair watching them. She watches as they meet and kiss.)

(Grissom walks up to Sara and takes the seat next to her. He's holding two culps. He hands her a cup of tea.)

LIKE!!!!!!!

Right after Erin ends her sentence with 'girl at the office', the first time Sara and Grissom meet again, he brings her tea. This might be an innocent interaction but to me it seemed like a nod to this relationship they have where both are into each other, know about the other's feelings, but can't/won't do anything about it (although Sara has kind of given Grissom an ultimatum). I don't know if it was intentional - I'm guessing it is, because I picked it up immediately. I might or might not have squealed in delight.

it's normal to be disappointed when you learn that your dreams are already dead. but just like a phoenix, our death will lead us to our own rebirth; and like a supernova, some deaths are beautiful.
