#eye surgery needs

[mag200]

(me on a first date) and what do you think of the inherent intimacy of surgery? have you considered the love someone must have to put their hands under your skin and hold the most grotesque parts of you and put them back together nicely? is anyone really closer to you than that? we all get uh a little enamored on the surgery table don't we haha. wait come back

my favorite scully and mulder moments from s1

the evergreen classic mulder reaction to a terrified scully knocking at his door in the very first episode- how he checks over her, holds her close, and brings her into his room

(and then ANOTHER instance of examining each other for aliens in episode 8 which was wild. if i had a nickel for each time they had to look at each other's bodies for evidence of aliens, i'd only have two nickels, which isn't a lot, but its weird that it happened twice)

him playing with scully's necklace in episode 3, while admitting he feels "territorial"

the first time he calls scully "dana", right after her father dies- which surprises her so much she mumbles her name back to herself- and he follows up by grabbing her face and gently running his finger over her cheek

(and the first time she tries to call him "fox", after he had been awake for 3 straight days on a stakeout, and she begs him to go home- he laughs and says he even made his parents call him mulder)

((still, she brought him a sandwich and a drink- “if there’s an iced tea in that bag, could be love” “must be fate- root beer”))

scully in Doctor Mode™ after mulder got stuck in the fire in episode 12, trying to give him water as he lays in bed, while he gets all emo and pushes her hand away

when scully gets kidnapped in episode 15 and mulder calls her "dana" again over the phone, her first name slipping out in his fear, then he tells the kidnapper "listen to me, you lay one hand on scully, and so help me god..."

(and THEN he tells everyone going on her rescue mission that this is a very important mission to him, so please everybody do their best)

the endless banter: "i still don't get it. what does this have to do with us?" "robbing a jewelry store is a federal crime" (flatly) "thank you."

when he is at an autopsy with scully in episode 18 and makes it very clear he does Not Want To Be There (but she still is sad he won't join her on her next one in episode 22!)

"happy birthday scully!" (pause of confusion) "you're two months early!"

when she finally listened to the psychic to get evidence for a case in episode 13, trying to make mulder proud- "i'd thought you'd be pleased i'd opened myself to extreme possibilities"- only for him to yell at her for putting herself in danger

(later in the same episode she screamed at the criminal, saying that if he did anything to mulder, she'd kill him herself)

((AND their conversation at the end of that episode when mulder is laying in a hospital bed: "why can't you believe?" "i'm afraid"))

the very empire strikes back coded fighting in the arctic compound in episode 8

"you think it's remotely plausible that someone might think you're hot?" (stunned silence. scholars are still trying to figure out what was going on here)

oh, this one made me weepy: "i have never met anyone so passionate and dedicated to a belief as you. it's so intense, sometimes it's blinding. but there are others who are watching you, who know what i know, and whereas i can respect and admire your passion, they will use it against you. mulder, the truth is out there, but so are lies" aka the episode 17 monologue… what if i melted into a puddle? how would you react to this news? how about mulder the protector turning into mulder the protected?

(also, episode 17 had a moment where he grabbed her shoulder and leaned in and i had to restrain myself)

them having hand signals to indicate watch what you say, we’re being listened to

in episode 18, the preacher’s kid tries to taunt mulder with information about his sister and scully tries to shut him down Immediately

they’re looking for each other in the dark in episode 19 while a wild beast is on the loose and mulder finally kicks open the door and finds scully while she whispers “it’s okay, it’s me, it’s okay”

episode 20, when he shows her a bunch of lumberjacks, which he describes as “rugged manly men in the full bloom of their manhood” and he says she should look for anything unusual or a boyfriend among them... and she laughs

scully losing her mind when the evil cocoon bugs get on her, screaming at mulder to get them off of her, while he holds her still and explains it’s okay as long as they're in the light

(and then they sit on the bed, side by side, talking through the night)

when mulder’s friend dies and she kneels and says to him, “you’ve been through a lot… more than I think you realize” and encourages him to take some time for himself

any episode where they both wear big coats (for the snow in episode 8, or the rain in 20) is an instant classic to me

“mulder, you’re rushing me out of the room… is there a girl coming over?” from episode 11... yeah I laughed. and then laughed even more when he was just hanging out with deep throat in the next scene!

episode 23’s “how was the wedding? Did you catch the bouquet?” “maaaaybe 😊”

and who can forget the finale! she apologizes for doubting his alien leads; “I should know by now to trust your instincts” “why? no one else does” (both smile and i, once again, collapse)

there's so much to unpack here and i could spend a lifetime doing it, but before i watch s2 for the first time i needed to make note of the things that especially made me happy or brought great angst to the forefront; i am studying their dynamic and putting it in a bottle <3

ended up deciding to expand my roleswap au: celeste and hifumi

not everyone will have a talent that's a perfect swap but i think these guys are such foils of each other that there was no other option. also it's funny to imagine

celeste is the ultimate doujin artist. 'celeste ludenberg' is the pseudonym she publishes under

she cosplays gothic-lolita style when she goes to conventions but most of the time she min-maxes for comfort over looks

her determination + desire to create her ideal world through her work -> overworking herself

hifumi is the ultimate gambler. with an appreciation for anime and manga. and gentleman aesthetics

he takes advantage of how others underestimate him for his appearance by making himself seem shallow/dim/easy to trick

his ultimate goal is to one day pay out his favorite studios to animate the princess buko movie with himself voicing a self-insert side character according to his own script. or to buy out a comiket

ok can someone advise me on what to do. I have gone to two different eye doctors over the past two years and both have given me multiple prescriptions that are “wrong,” in the sense that they don’t give me clear vision (it’s blurry, I have to squint a little bit all the time, I can’t read fine print or see low contrast images very well, and I have to have a ton of lights on very bright to read at night). the one I just went to spent literally no more than two minutes doing the “1 or 2” thing, and even though I kept saying “it’s still blurry, it’s still not clear, I still can’t read below the giant letters,” he finalized the prescription anyway. unsurprisingly when the trials came in I could tell immediately that they were really off, to the point where I didn’t feel comfortable driving in them. then he ordered me a different pair which were somehow even worse. when I called to ask he told me kinda impatiently that it was impossible to give me 20/20 vision and 20/40 was the best he could do… but like honestly I’m not even sure I’m getting 20/40 vision given how off these feel? I also don’t know if he’s full of shit or right? I don’t want to spend a bunch of money doing exams all over again at a new eye doctor if it’s true that they can’t fix my vision or even get it to something I can kinda live with. aghhh I’m just so tired of having eye strain ALL the time and not being able to like, idk, read the menu board when I walk into a restaurant to order food.

today's update is i feel fine, minimal lingering pain getting up, coughed and it only hurts a little bit at the end (not enough to make me completely avoid doing such things anymore) and I can almost fully bend down to pet cookie without discomfort. Its just the Struggling With Clothes Touching Incisions part to deal with neow. Oh and I still cannot wear pants or anything over my waist, and still need seatbelt barrier (small pillow) in car

Every pair of random attractive men get at least a half hour of romance/horny on main in this show for no reason at all but to see them kiss. This show is nothing but vibes and I love every moment.

[girl-detector]

But is girl detector girl?

as previously asked, it's not dissimilar to actively trying to see the inside of your eye
