Smiffina Episodes - Episode 299

Smithy: How are you today?

Gina: Busy as ever. How's Custody?

Smithy: I meant-

Gina: I know exactly what you meant.

Smithy: (about Gina following what the doctors have told her like stopping smoking) I do hope you're obeying those orders.

Gina: I made the right noises.

Smithy: You mean you lied.

Gina: Would I? [Smithy looks at her hand] What...?

Smithy: [internal eyeroll as he walks off] nothing.

Gina: .... I'm giving up!

Gina bollocks JT for giving a woman the address of a man who has found her handbag for her to go and collect it... the man in question was Alan Kennedy - under surveillance by Sam and Terry after their case against him was thrown out of court after Andrea was torn apart by the defence barrister.

Smithy comes in straight after to 'give Gina some paperwork' aka: check up on her and make sure she's ok. Turns out he's been doing this roughly every hour all day. He gently confesses he's never been in the situation of someone he cares about telling him they have a serious illness, especially given he can't speak to anyone else about it - and he's sort of floundering. He knows it's off topic to talk about with Gina too. Gina shouts that thats why she doesn't want to tell people because you have to spend half the time consoling them. Smithy shouts back that he didn't want consollation, he wanted to offer support "But you don't need help from anyone ever, do ya?!"

Gina sees him a little later and he's clearly still a pouty boy so she leads him into her office, by his hand, to talk to him properly.

Gina apologises and Smithy visibly softens and he asks her if she's told her family, she says no and he says that she should. "Why? My fathers dead, my brothers dead and my mothers been in a state of semi-conciousness for as far back as I can remember." Her mums in a home in Kent now, but when Gina was a kid she used to be addicted to vallium "and be crawling the walls when trying to come off it and staring into the middle distance when she was on it." "So your dad raised you then?" "Oh do leave off, an EastEnd bookie? I brought myself up!" She tells him and Smithy gives her a small smile at that thought. "Something pathetic isn't it... about a 50 year old woman banging on about how terrible her childhood was." "According to you there's something pathetic about showing any form of emotion at all." ouch! Gina says she can't afford to fall apart because she doesn't have a support network to pick up the pieces.. "The irony is you do." Smithy tells her. "You just won't let them." Gina swallows hard and stops, realising there is something that she does have to do. She tells him that she's the only person to take care of her mum and asks him if, when she goes into hospital for her treatement, she could give the home his number incase anything happened. Smithy tells her instantly that it's not a problem. He then adds, as he leaves, "If you ever did want to fall apart.... I promise, I wouldn't tell anyone." My heaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaart!

what’s WRONG WITH HIM

[morayofsunshine]

thinking about Detective Paints McSpectrum, the bisexual disaster who has a wife he's unhappy with and a secret family he's even less happy with, who after his success solving the Murder on the Picturesque Express hires Daniel Craig to pretend to be dead at a fancy party so that he can pretend to solve his murder

this is why I want everyone to listen to Off Book: The Improvised Musical Podcast so Paints can become tumblr's new favorite fictional guy

I watched Fairy Tail Episode 299.

C3E091 True Heroism

The Archivists have been hard at work gathering Episode 91 data. You can visit our site for a fuller picture, but some highlights are below, starting with some statistics about our beloved Faithful Care-Giver:

FCG dealt 967 points of confirmed damage over the course of the campaign, with their top damage episode being C3E057 The Sorrow of Molaesmyr, when they did 150 points of damage.

But, as we know, his greatest strength was in protecting his friends. Across 91 episodes, FCG gave 1,452 points of confirmed healing. Their final episode, C3E091 True Heroism, was also their top healing episode with 286 HP.

Additionally, FCG used Transfer Suffering to mitigate 243 points of damage across the campaign. Of all the Hells, he most frequently took damage for Imogen, and took the highest number of points for Fearne.

Appropriately, their favorite spell was Guidance, which they cast 140 times. Their other top spells/features included Cure Wounds, Transfer Suffering, Enhance Ability, and Channel Divinity (Sympathetic Binding).

At the time of their death, FCG had taken more damage than any other PC: a whopping 2,062 points of damage over the course of the campaign.

He got three HDYWTDTs, wished people a smiley day 51 times, and made (or inspired) 66 unfortunate references to having a flesh tongue.

He was made of metal and wires, but he was alive, and because of him, his friends are too.  

Visit our site for the rest of our FCG highlights, as well as a special tribute that you should make sure to click. As for the Legend of the Peaks, some truly frightening highlights:

Otohan Thull dealt 847 points of damage. With four attacks per turn, they were likely a level 20 Psi Warrior fighter. She had two legendary resistances, and she took a total of 501 points of damage, 299 of these before exalting.

At 399 damage, Otohan took a health potion and healed 66 points. She then took 63 additional points of damage before FCG made their sacrifice.

Presuming that Otohan was not resistant to the damage from FCG’s explosion (79), which seems likely given the particular arcane nature of FCG’s core, that puts her total HP somewhere between 400 and 475 points.

For comparison, these stats put her in the same HP range as a Forge Guardian, the demon prince of undeath Orcus, or an Ancient Dragon Turtle, with more multi attacks and damage resistances than any of them. Terrifying! 

Visit our Episode 91 page here for more detail about Otohan, and check out our homepage for some additional highlights.

DEAN WINCHESTER in one random episode per day ‣ 299/327 4.05 MONSTER MOVIE

[agentsofmarvel]

some of my favorite agents of shield fun facts (season 4 edition) (part 1!!)

season one through three fun facts are on my page!!

this season was the first to split into three separate arcs: the ghost rider, LMDs, and then the framework. in seasons one through three, there are two arcs across the season.

the writers realized they could introduce the darkhold and magic into the fourth season as doctor strange had been recently released and the audience had already been introduced to "mcu magic".

the writers dubbed season four "the fractured family".

dr.radcliffe was described by jeph loeb as “what fitz could have been”. radcliffe is said to be someone who believes they have good morals, but doesn’t think about the consequences of their actions and just does things.

robbie’s charger has the license plate number: 299 ZXB

in season four episode one “the ghost”, jed whedon makes a very quick appearance on an orange bus in the background of a shot.

to film scenes with the ghost rider’s flaming skull, gabriel luna had to wear a balaclava (think a ski mask) with flashing LED lights to simulate the lighting from a fire.

for any scenes with the charger, they had to find two almost identical 1969 dodge charger’s. one for up-close shots and one stunt vehicle. they ended up having to have both custom built.

the role of AIDA was actually supposed to be a small role. however, upon seeing mallory jansen’s acting, the crew immediately began adding her character into more scenes.

so so glad to be back sharing fun facts!! season 4 part 2 (including framework facts) is already in the works!!

UPDATED: The Forms of Lookism as Portrayed in Lookism Manhwa/Webtoon

A list of the forms of lookism as portrayed in the webtoon from the beginning to this day (Episodes 1-508). I made this list as a companion to this post and this post. This list is cross-referenced against the arcs, so this might not always fit with the specific episodes that I mentioned.

Bullying and labelling based on appearance (face, body shape, weight, skin color, perceived social status) (Eps 1-14, 46-50, 58-62, 139-148, 199-213, 83-90, 91-95, 153-157, 163-171, 264-265, 370-371, 452-453, 460-462, 481-492, 498, 507-508, 501)

From June 9, 2019 to September 23, 2023 I posted something new to my Ao3 account at least once a week, every week (allowing for some deviation between weekend/weekday posting in the early days). From January 25, 2020, I’ve had an update every single Saturday. In total, this has amounted to 219 weeks of content, 299 individual updates, and 204 unique stories (approximately - I think I miscounted somewhere in there).

4 years, 3 months of weekly posting. 3 years, 8 months of Saturday stories.

I’m very glad I’m taking a break, because finding time to post every Saturday has been getting difficult, but it still feels very weird to not be posting something today.

Anyway, I’m very proud of how much I’ve created over the last few years, so I wanted to do a bit of a statistics breakdown because I’m a sucker for hard data:

Per Ao3 sorting here, I’ve posted… 209 stories. Yeah I definitely miscounted. Anyway.

Fandoms:

203 for The Magnus Archives

2 for Discworld

2 for Good Omens TV

1 for Good Omens Book

1 for Skulduggery Pleasant

1 for Malevolent (which was a TMA crossover lol)

A bunch of other fandoms got dragged into the stats because of Vinettes, but I only added TMA stories to that one in the last 4 years.

Of the 203 TMA stories, 6 are multi-chapter longfics, including Yesterday is Here - which kicked off the Saturday posting, and remains my most popular story to date.

Wordcount:

Approximately 819,000.

Which equals about 530 words written per day.

My average story length was about 3,919 words.

If you take the 6 longfics out of that math, the average drops down to 2,623.

2020 had the highest per-year wordcount, at 236,485.

The highest wordcount for a single story was 57,758 for A Matter of Diplomacy.

The lowest wordcount was only 215 for Best Wishes.

You could fit 268.6 Best Wishes into 1 AMoD.

Random:

40 of the oneshots were posted as direct, week-of reactions to TMA S5 episodes, encompassing 19.14% of the total fics.

30 of the oneshots were for the Castaways series, for 14.35% of the total fics.

The 203 TMA fics are 97.13% of the total.

Jonathan "Jon" Sims | The Archivist was in slightly more stories (189) than Martin Blackwood (186), but significantly more stories than the next-most common characters, Tim Stoker (32) and Sasha James (26).

Martin Blackwood/Jonathan "Jon" Sims | The Archivist was, unsurprisingly, the most common relationship, at 94.26% of the total (197 fics).

My ten most common tags were, in order: Episode Related (65), Fluff (53), Post-Canon (42), Short (41), Post-Episode: e200 Last Words (39), Location: Somewhere Else (29), Canon Asexual Character (27), Season/Series 01 (22), First Kiss (19), and Happy Ending (14), which says a lot about the type of story I like to write and also that I really like tagging when and where things are set.

Jon was still just ��Jonathan Sims’ when I started this…

‘Jonathan "Jon" Sims | The Archivist’ arrived on the scene in May 2020, so 149 (78.84%) of the Jon stories have the long tag, and 40 (21.16%) have the short.
