[hockeysweetheart]

What do all of these  People have in Common.... They all come from the Capitol...  

As I am rereading the series again... this never hit me before. How much Katniss Hated the captiol and everyone in it... She wanted nothing to do with them. ( Like wanted them to know nothing about her life). She was Disguested at the fact the get pump up for the games ( like anyone would for a sporting event or something you truely get excited for).. She lables the people in the capitol  That they are all bad guys, Doing the Worst crime possible... ( Prior Games)...  

Then she meets her prep Team and realizes that they are actually trying to help her  stand a chance.  But still was on edge a little bit with them.. Katniss Realized okay they are pretty much brainwashed into enjoying these games.. And like she just couldn’t hate  on them because they just look so silly and talk that way. Catching Fire... They way they treated her mother with respect  Katniss Felt a guilty for the way she labled them... Then later on in the books  her prep team is crying tears over her and there goodbye... ( Katniss says something like how  this literally is breaking her heart).. Then in the book of Mockingjay they are “rescuded and put in jail in district 13 for the fact they stole a piece of bread or something like that”. In that moment  Katniss was like oh hell no she defended her prep team... even tho it took them a little bit of time to gang there trust to her again... But over all  she realized they are actually good people... 

Effie the Escort of the games.... Katniss would make fun of  her acent and really since Effie was just the escort Katniss didn’t really value her opinion early on. Tho I don’t think Katniss ever Hated her.  Trust took a while tho. She was in the same boat as everyone else in the capitol tho .In catching fire ( this  broke my heart) At the reaping Effie thats when I think it hit Katniss Efffie Genuinely cares about Katniss and Peeta... ( Not the next Party not the wedding).. From that point Effie managed to break my heart a few more other times... Another was before the Interviews ( In the movies not sure if this was in the books) When Effie tells Katniss she would be the most Beautiful Bride and says lets show them what real beauty looks like... and then the Goodbyes from Effie.  This is when I persoanlly had a whole new respect for Effie. ( During these times).  In Mockingjay In the book shes not in it until the very end of the book. In the movie she has a bigger role...When she is talking to Plutarch  she feels so bad for Katniss all shes been through and tells him that She cannot be replaced... So when she Meets Katniss again. Katniss  doesn’t hesitate to hug her. and is happy to see her..  Another thing I noticed after Snow Dropped off the roses and Katniss is having the Meltdown.. She tells them we should turn off the cameras... ( I thought personally such a sweet Moment)... At the End of the movie. When Katniss is on her way home... What Effie said to Katniss (Also broke my heart) Katniss knew that Effie was like a friend to her almost family who truely cares about her...

Cinna. The moment she met Cinna she liked him right off the bat.  and he hasn’t Dispointed her. She saw Cinna was not only going to help her look good. She saw him as someone who will help her get through interviews Help her have a actual chance in these games...  In fact she calls him a friend even. She also feels alot safe when he’s around and doesn’t want to Disappoint him.  When he said I am not allowed to bet but if I could I’d bet on you... That moment Katniss realized that he genuinely Beileves she can win this thing... Her outfits Tell a story. Girl on Fire.  Wont Go down without a fight...Made her  unforgettable... Catching Fire... He helped Katniss with her talent and Katniss enjoyed this since it meant talking to Cinna. By this point no question they are friends ( Katniss has a friend in the capitol). The Wedding Dress to Mockingjay “Chef kiss”.. ( By that point there was this rebel plot and Katniss was nammed the Mockingjay of it but She had no idea yet...) So Cinna did her a huge favor in helping her. Knowing it would result in his death...  Mockingjay even tho he was dead i personally felt he was there all along. Making her the mockingjay suit  adding all these little details making it perfect. Over all I personally love Cinna. ( he said I only show what I feel in my work so he hurts no one but himself...) I love that line... And he was hte one who really truely helped Katniss no matter what,,,

Plutarch. Katniss never Fully trusts him... He is the head gamemaker and rebel too.. So Katniss said  she ranks the Gamemakers somewhere between maggots in the terms of creatures she wants in contract with her skin.. ( Also anyone remember whem Katniss shot the arrow at  the gamemakers and one fell in the punch bowl yeah that was Plutarch. So over all basically slowly once hes found out to be the rebel.. after the break into the arena... Katniss sorta slowly trusts him ( I am however a little rusty on Mockingjay tho) I want to add right here. I know that in the movies. He was suppose to be added in a lot more but since Philip Seymour Hoffman death they did  the movie beautifully. ( Did you know that they had a meeting with Suzanne Collins about what to do.. She said Haymtich should bring Katniss the letter and read it)...

Cressida.Messalla, Pollux and Castor.. Katniss Film crew in District 13...  Katniss. really didn’t put them in the lable... tho I don’t recall her trusting them right off the bat.. at this point tho  the Capitol lable is thrown out the window if your in district 13... ( I personally forgot they were from the capitol)

Over all during the series Katniss Realized not all people in the capitol are bad... not all from from there. she had a new respect for  people after her first games. she realized well  that the games are made in a way that it makes people want to watch the games... and like Katniss opens up a whole new door to them..

Chopped: Holiday Trope Exchange Masterlist 

A huge thanks to every person who signed up for our gift exchange, we got 18 really wonderful fics! For anyone who isn’t sure what this was all about, this was a double blind gift exchange where each of our eighteen (18!!!) writers were assigned four tropes from an anonymous recipient, and were tasked with writing a fic that fit our holiday theme, and included all the tropes. The only guidance from their recipient were a couple of brief notes they included during the sign up, and both the writer and recipient were revealed when we shared all the fics! These fics, as with all our Chopped fics, were creative and unique, and found ways to utilise tropes that may seem so simple in really spectacular ways! If this gift exchange, or any of our other Chopped events, have sparked your interest, keep your eyes peeled on this page for some future events we have planned, and sign up to join the fun! In the meantime, we hope you enjoy these wonderful holiday fics!

Love to everyone who participated, Bailey and Sara <3 

Let it Snow (And I’ll Get Sentimental) [G] (Memori) 

Written by @mylifeiskara, for @hostagetakerandhistraitor​. The four assigned tropes were 1) friends made a bet, 2) one character kisses the other and the one who got kissed is shocked still, 3) amnesia AU, 4) ark AU (or any other AU where the story takes place in space).

All John Murphy wants for Christmas is for Emori to remember who he is.

Won’t let you go [G] (Clurphy) 

Written by sapphictomaz, for @vmreed​. The four assigned tropes were 1) childhood friends-to-lover, 2) grounder au, 3) tattoos, and 4) body painting

There is nothing shared in Clarke and Murphy's lives. They come from opposite clans who have a history of warfare between them. She lives in the jungle, while he calls the mountainside home. She celebrates the holidays by dancing the year away, and he does so by claiming dominance on another year that has passed.

They meet, anyways, and realize that sometimes, you have to make your own traditions.

Contained Constant Chaos [T] (Murven)

Written by @vmreed, for sapphictomaz. The four assigned tropes were 1) Post-Apocalypse AU (different from canon), 2) Found Family, 3)Hurt/Comfort, and 4) "You're an asshole to everybody else, but you're nice to me"

“Please don’t kill me.” He said, stupidly.

She raised an eyebrow, saying nothing, but offering him a box of tampons.

and i’ll die by your side if you want me to [T] (Memori)

Written by @dylanobrienisbatman​, for @justbecauseyoubelievesomething. The four assigned tropes were 1) based on a tv show (author chose Timeless), 2) soulmate AU, 3) fake dating, and 4) timeloop/groundhog day AU.

Murphy got tapped to come work for a special project after he was arrested for stealing a military vehicle right off of the base (long story). Turns out the special project... involved time travel... so theres that. About 6 months after he signed on, it all went horribly sideways, and now they were chasing their friends across history, trying to stop them from making a horrible mistake.

Thats how they end up in the middle of World War I France on Christmas day in 1914. Thats how she dies.

And then... somehow... the day begins again. Can he figure out a way to stop The Blake Siblings from wrecking history forever and also save the girl?

This Christmas, You're All That I Want (Just Don't Tell Anyone) [G] (Bellarke)

Written by @bellarkestitchdelena​, for @captaindaddykru​. The four assigned tropes were 1) Joke kiss turned serious, 2) The main ship must share something (can literally be anything), 3) Two characters giving extremely biased flashbacks to an event, and 4) Secret Relationship.

It all starts trying to prove Murphy wrong

Season’s Grievances [G] (Multi)

Written by @hostagetakerandhistraitor​, for @teeandsnowflakes​. The four assigned tropes were 1) a terribly loud crash and one of the characters yelling ‘IM OKAY’ from another room, 2) huddle for warmth, 3) found family, and 4) one character is ‘icy’ and slowly defrosts. 

Bellamy and Raven have been best friends for over 3 years. They found each other at their low points and bonded to turn each other into better people. But when Bellamy starts dating Raven's ex, Echo, things get icy. This is a story of family, friendship, romance, betrayal, culinary inaptitude, with a slight zest of things I wanted to be canon. Also a Blake family Christmas party.

Kiss Me Babe, It's Christmas Time [M] (Bellarke)

Written by @eyessharpweaponshot, for @shen-gong-oops​. The four assigned tropes were 1) One character has a child, 2) Characters are not together but are mistaken for a couple, 3) Terribly loud crash and one character goes ‘oops’ in a casual voice, 4) Two characters giving extremely biased flashbacks of the same event.

How long have you been in love with him? Seven years now?’ ‘Eight’ Clarke corrects him, her voice muffled through her hands as she cups her face. She’s still trying to calm her heart rate down. Murphy simply laughs, his amusement of this clear as day. ‘Don’t know what you’re laughing at. You were in the same boat with Raven’ Clarke reminds him. ‘Not for eight years, I wasn’t.’ Clarke rolls her eyes. She should never have told Murphy. The results of too much wine and being the last ones standing after a night in Grounders a couple of years ago. ‘Look, all I’m saying is it might be worth telling him’ he shrugs, leaning against the broom in his hand. Clarke gives him a pointed look. ‘Nobody is telling Bellamy anything.’

Christmas time, a harbouring secret and a festive get-together. The perfect combination.

where the love light gleams [T] (Murven)

Written by @teeandsnowflakes, for @kuklash​. The four assigned tropes were 1) meet cute, 2) first kiss, 3) surprise proposal, 4) pregnancy AU.

Raven hadn't been home for Christmas in four years, but the one year she did, she met Murphy, new in town since she had last been there, and learns a very important lesson about the holidays.

i know you can feel the magic we don't need to talk about it [T] (Bellarke)

Written by @captaindaddykru , for @eyessharpweaponshot​. The four assigned tropes were 1) exes, 2) jealousy, 3) protectiveness, 4) modern au. 

Christmas eve, Clarke's sort-of-ex shows up at her door in the middle of an awkward family dinner and so she ends up flashing him. Holiday spirit and all.

Dance Your Way Home [T] (Becho)

Written by @justbecauseyoubelievesomething​, for @dylanobrienisbatman​. The four assigned tropes were 1) historical AU (1920′s or earlier), 2) almost kiss/interrupted kiss, 3) holiday party, and 4) sunrises.

“We need to get you home. You’re freezing.”

Home. She has no home.

Everyone Telling You Be of Good Cheer [G] (Clurphy)

Written by @kinetic-elaboration​, for @hopskipaway​. The four assigned tropes were 1) amnesia, 2) found family, 3) oblivious pining, and 4) and mistletoe kiss.

“Merry Christmas, by the way,” Clarke adds, which settles that.

“You too. Merry Christmas.” He takes down Bellamy’s NYU mug without thinking, tries to shake the feeling that he’s no more than an extra in Clarke’s amnesiac version of Groundhog’s Day. That this is, somehow, normal. That he is not wondering, the thought like an invasive little jingle in his ear, what she thinks yesterday was.

The day after Murphy, Clarke, Bellamy, and Raven return from disappointing family Christmases, Clarke wishes that they could have spent the holiday together instead. A fall down the stairs, a bout of amnesia—and suddenly it’s Christmas again. And again. And again. Reliving the day puts even Murphy into the holiday spirit, and helps him learn to open his heart to his friends, and to the possibility of love.

3 Times Murphy Lost a Fight, and 1 Time He Didn't  [M] (Clurphy)

Written by @kuklash​, for @mylifeiskara​. The four assigned tropes were 1) 3+1, 2) Oblivious Pining, 3) Work Party, and 4) First Kiss.

Dec. 20th, 2003

"This party is gonna fucking suck, Clarke."

"Of course it’s gonna suck, Murphy, but if you want this job you have to schmooze," the blonde said with an eye roll. "The best place to schmooze is the company Christmas party."

A Little Brighter [G] (Bellarke)

Written by @shen-gong-oops​, for @bellarkestitchdelena​. The four assigned tropes were 1) Rivals to Lovers, 2) Arranged Marriage AU, 3) Pregnancy, and 4) Sunsets.

Taking a deep breath, he turned towards Clarke. "If I were to take up your father's offer for knighthood, please know, I do not wish to be the knight to the princess of all Arkadia."

Or: Bellamy takes a really long time to realize he's being a hypocrite.

when i’m feelin' alone (you remind me of home) [G] (Clurphy)

Written by @hopskipaway​, for @probably-voldemort​. The four assigned tropes were 1) royalty au, 2) marriage pact, 3) clumsy character, and 4) roommates. 

Within the walls of the palace, Princess Clarke of Arkadia lives a quiet and lonesome life.

That is, until John Murphy waltzes into her life and changes it forever. She’s not complaining.

sweet dreams of holly and ribbon, mistakes are forgiven, and everythin' is icy and blue, and you would be there too

make my wish come true [T] (Murven)

Written by @probably-voldemort​, for @kinetic-elaboration​. The four assigned tropes were 1) almost kiss / interrupted kiss, 2) holiday movie (as in being in a holiday movie), 3) friends with benefits, and 4) band au. 

It's been ten years since the Delinquents went off air, so clearly it's time for a reunion in the form of a Christmas special. Yeah, it sounded like bullshit to Murphy, too, but he hadn't seen the crew since Raven's wedding a few years back, and he'd managed to convince Kane that his character should have a dog, so there was no way it could be all bad.

Right?

Last Christmas [NR] (Bellarke)

Written by @bellarkeshoe​, for @hiddenpolkadots​. The four assigned tropes were 1) Exes, 2) Fake dating, 3) Kiss under the mistletoe, and 4) Modern Au.

Bellamy Blake never thought he would see Clarke Griffin again in his life. At least, not after the way things ended. He wished that things had gone differently because well, he cared about her. He loved her and he wanted to spend the rest of his life with her. He never even really got the chance to tell her that.

Everything happened so fast. One moment he is as happy as he can be, enjoying his life as a professor with an amazing girlfriend, and just like that, his world came crumbling down and over one huge misunderstanding.

But when they ended it, they both said some things they didn’t mean, or well he hoped she didn’t mean what she had said, he knows he didn’t.

But that is all in the past now, he can never forget about her, he still thinks about her everyday, but there is nothing he can really do about it. Clarke hates him for some reason and he doesn’t know if he’s totally over the fact that she ended things.

He is sure she had a good reason to. I mean at least that’s what he hopes. If the love they felt for each other was genuine and real than she should have had a very good reason to end things, right?

your eyes outshine the town, they do [T] (Bellarke)

Written by @hiddenpolkadots​, for @thelittlefanpire. The four assigned tropes were 1) magic au, 2) competing businesses, 3) secret relationship, and 4) kiss in the snow.

“I’m going to make you enjoy Christmas,” she tells him, her confidence in herself almost overwhelming. “I can’t do anything about the weather but I’m pretty sure I can handle the rest. By the time the season is over you’re going to love Christmas.”

“I highly doubt that,” he says, staring at her hard. “I may just tolerate it at best.”

“I’ll take it,” she says, “Bellamy Blake, prepare to have the best Christmas of your life.

or, sometimes christmas is you and your rival falling into a snowbank together.

Taste of Arkadia [G] (Bellarke)

Written by @thelittlefanpire​, for @bellarkeshoe​. The four assigned tropes were 1) Rivals to Lovers, 2) Character A catches Character B crying, 3) Modern AU, and 4) Competing businesses (author’s choice).

Before Christmas, the Chancellor of Arkadia charges his son with the task of repurposing the city’s warehouse district into a cool, hip hub for commerce and camaraderie.

At its opening, an impromptu competition among the many businesses in the area begin for the best spot in the ARK.

Take a read! Leave a kudos/comment! These fics are so unique and fun and the authors worked so hard on them. Thanks so much!

Plot ideas

I have some plot ideas but they're all the sort of thing i would like to plot or at least discuss breifly before starting. So Message me if you're interested in any of these. Or give this a like and I'll message you so we can plot.

A circus thats runs entirely by vampires (or other supernatural beings) and every town they visit, someone or a small group of people go missing. One muse is a human that gets taken or is trying to investigate what really happens.

Similarly to the above idea, both our muses are in a circus together (supernatural or normal) and slowly fall in love or are already in love which leads to them combining their acts to make something beautiful. Then if angst is wanted one of them gets hurt and is unable to perform anymore but they still want to do the act as its their way of expressing love.

Timothy, Robin or Francis have a bad turn and end up killing a lot people due to what they are. And your muse is the one that finds them at the end of it and starts pulling them out and helping them deal. Your muse could either be another supernatural or relationship in some way.

Or like the above just one of our muses or both going through something traumatic of that kind of nature (an accident, kidnapping, life changing experience, anything really) and its about them dealing and coping with it and supporting each other.

Where a married couple have a pet that they use for their own sexual purposes. Could be something like a royal wedding and its a tradition for the kings to also have pet and they share it or take turns playing with it.

Where one muse has an ability or power that no one believes and is either in hospital, asylum or prision for it. So for most of their life they believe its not real or whatever. And then the other muse finds them and is like them so takes them under their wing to start training them. Maybe they eventually fall in love or just have a really strong bond.

Where either Robin, Francis or Cecil have belonged to one family or organisation for like forever and are used for whatever is needed of them.

Pirate au. One is the most feared pirate captain of all time but I'd really a massive softy or sub to those closest to them but at the same time they'll kill and raid towns in a heartbeat. And the other muse is either a crew mate or is taken prisioner or a Stowaway and they get to see the other side of the captain.

Pirate au. Where pirates have raided a village and one muse who is off high standing has traded themselves in return for the village to be saved.

Where a prince is supposedly guarded by a dangerous beast and either the prince is the dangerous beast or the dangerous beast is actually in love or something with the prince. So when the prince is rescued the prince demands the other comes with them.

One muse is like a pickpocket or street urchin or something along those lines and the other muses takes them and looks after them. Or its like my fair lady and they are trying to transform them for a bet or study.

VC #79 Curtis

I wouldn't have any problems with Shiro ending up with Curtis if there had been more development and time for Shiro to heal and move on. It's literally like they thought, oh shpot, our big gay draw is not happening, we already killed the other guy, lets add in this dude! Curtis is adorable and in the wedding shot they do seem so happy. I could accept them as canon with no problem if Shiro had been given time to mourn. If we cut out Kuron's time, cuz he wouldnt have given a shit, Shiro still had a very long amount of time missing Adam and not knowing. And if Shiro got to do any mourning at all, it was kept off camera. And that pisses me off. Adam had 3 minutes of relevant content. But he aas a big part of Shiro's and maybe even Keith's life. A few of the new Adam antis are saying that Adam is bad because he made Shiro choose. Im sorry hun but if my fiance was going to head into space, while suffering from an incurable disease, and was going to be gone for maybe a year, then I sure as hell would put up a fight. We dont see it but theyve probably talked and argued over Shiro going for a long time. And Adam probably thought they had settled the issue and had decided together that Shiro wasnt going to go. So then Shiro comes back to their room and tells Adam he's going. No discussibg it again. Shiro decided on his own that he was going to go. Adam had every right to be upset. So then Shiro's gone abd Adam may be bitter, possible planning abd preparing for the argumebt when Shiro gets back. But after the months of knowing Shiro's journeying to Kerberos, it's made news that the mission failed and the crew is called dead. Adam thought Shiro was dead. At least thats what we can assume. With so littke screen time for Adam it is hard to judge and know how in the loop Adam would have been kept. But assuming Adam wasn't told anything, he has thought Shiro was dead for a year before the show takes place. Possible a year and a half since they broke up. So by the time the show even begins, Adam has been moving on. But Shiro doesnt get that. He spends the months flying to Kerberos focused on the mission, trying to proce that his disease isnt holding him back. And then he has a year in captivity. Where he is put through torture and worse. Id bet my life that Shiro probably cried himself to sleep some nights wishing he had listened to Adam. Shiro goes on though. He fights a war. And he does it well. For all we know, the only knowledge and thought of Adam he carries for those years is one of regret and sorrow. But is any of that shown on screen? Hell no. Why? Because Adam was added and killed for baiting and nothing else. If they had been real they would have existed. We would have seen Adam before season 7, wven just a mention of his name. Adam would have had an actual presence. Hell Shiro could have sent a video back with Sam for Adam. And Shiro would have gotten to mourn him on screen. Because it's one thing to believe that you lost that chance, knowing that you were done and living with it. It is another thing to learn that someone very dear too you is dead and died a hero in a war. Because Shiro didnt move on, at least not to a new relationship, before learning Adam was dead it would have hit him very hard. But we dont see anything. And if Shiro's mourning occured in the months between 7 and 8 then why not mention or show it somehow. Shiro visiting the memorial with flowers or just standing there quietly. They could have shown that he moved on very easily. But they didnt. And it pisses me the fuck off. Curtis could have been great. But they didnt build it on screen. Curtis and Shiro had little on screen interaction and none of it was noticeable because i was blindsided as fuck when they got married. There was absolutely no development. Nothing. I only know about Curtis cheering Shiro on at Clear Day because people went back and had to find Curtis and figure out who he was. I loved these characters too much. Im like a parent with kids. I dont just let my kids get engaged without meeting the s.o. first. Shiro could have been obviously gay from the start. But he wasnt. There is a reason the shiro and allura content is everywhere and rampant in any fic pre lotor. And when Matt came along, the shiro matt shippers took yarn and went bungy jumping. It just there was so little proper development. For everyone. This post mainly focused on Curtis, Adam, and Shiro but i am going to be dissecting every aspect of what failed in voltron as it comes to my attention. I was going to do the obvious Allurance one first but Curtis is popping up everywhere and was on my mind when i opened up the new post. There is so much more that voltron could have become. But it didnt. Ezor and Zethrid were the most we got out of a lgbt+ couple. And we all thought they were dead! If voltron had just stayed ship free it would be one thing. Find a way to leave it open ended. But they didnt. By giving us supposed endgames they gave us the right to argue and critisize them on how they developed the story. A show is nothing without a fanbase. And the voltron fanbase can be very toxic but we are what made voltron big and made it happen. We all loved and adopted the characters of this show. And the endings we got are subpar and feel like a knife in our chests.

Okay not only did these episodes meet my expectations but they surpassed them:

I like that so far, it seems that every appearance of Venomous will likely have something to do with Boxman. I also like so far, every episode they are featured in continues to give new milestones (or developments) in their relationship. 

I’m not even dismayed by the fact that Venomous found Boxman embarrassing at first, because so far every time they interact Venomous just ends up genuinely impressed by Boxman and Boxman always exceeds his (meager) expectations. I think over time Venomous isn’t going to necessarily regard him differently, but definitely respect him more. I don’t expect any quick romantic developments. This feels more slow-burn to me folks but I dunno about y'all. Maybe its because I don’t trust the OK KO crew yet! -shrugs-

I wouldn’t be surprised if its revealed that one of the reasons he finds Boxman’s passion towards fighting heroes so impressive is because other villains don’t seem as committed as they should be. It could be that Venomous secretly finds other villains pretty shallow in their cause. Venomous seems to be very emotionally invested in fighitng heroes and also in destroying P.O.I.N.T, I wouldn’t be surprised either if something in his backstory reveals why its so important to him. 

Venomous’ little “Yes.” when he hears theres karokee. 

Venomous and Boxman dancing

Fink already has glorb technology, and her powers don’t look or behave that differently from T.K.O’s powers. No wonder Venomous was able to identify a glorb processing facility by simply seeing one. One could argue that Fink’s powers being similar to T.K.O’s and the fact that Shadowy Figure was responsible for T.K.O and introducing to the audience about glorbs is more evidence that Venomous is Shadowy Figure. 

Speaking of Fink, she’s definitely being raised with kindness and tenderness that is necessary for a child. I hope that Venomous’ DRASTICALLY better parenting influences Boxman to be a better parent. I know the video in the playroom was probably a joke, but it was somewhat disturbing. I think I said he reminded me of a cult leader for robots. But it also kinda shows even deeper how this dysfunctional family dynamic works. I wouldn’t be surprised if Fink teaches the Boxmore robots to demand better from Boxman or defy him in some way. 

Boxman apparently really likes soup?

I remember pointing out once that Boxman probably has really high standards for himself. In the Power is Yours episode, Boxman sounds like he’s harshly berating someone, only for us to find out he was talking to himself. It was funny, but if he talks like that to himself, its no wonder why he demands so much from his robot kids. Mind you, this is not a justification for their treatment, just an observation. 

It’s interesting that Boxman is considered a “joke-villain” despite being level -10! I know Boxman is dorky but man these villains have high standards, lmao. 

Someone in the discord said that Boxman was probably ruining the party on purpose, since he came there to prove that he doesn’t give a shit what others think of him. I bet he was a guy that used to be really embarrassed by himself (which could also be why he doesn’t like friendship) and learned to just really #OwnIt. That twist in the end was really something special, I actually felt really proud of him, plus it was funny. I knew my faith in taking him a little bit more seriously wasn’t misplaced!!!!

I really don’t LIKE the idea of Venomous using Boxman for some greater, personal means, but some of those theories do make more sense now. If I were to speculate however, if that is the direction they are going for it will only serve to develop Boxman’s and Venomous’ relationship in the end. Reasons being is that even if that were to happen, it still wouldn’t change the fact that Venomous currently thinks Boxman is trustworthy enough with a plan he’s definitely been formulating for a long time. Venomous is still sympathetic to Boxman, he looked genuinely sad when he thought that Boxman was upset by being hated by other villains. If he were to betray Boxman I don’t think it would happen without any remorse. Also, if that were to happen, I can personally imagine a scenario that Boxman doesn’t behave sad when he finds out, but instead, lashes out dramatically, enough to be intmidating and convincing Venomous what he did was wrong and being impressed again. But that’s just if that happens and its my pure personal speculation. 

The quiet scene of them riding Boxman’s flying desk. Boxman was actually going to apologize but Venomous was like nah dude thats impressive as shit. And the chip he shows him almost looks like a real wedding proposal. Anyways they’re Officially going to really work together more and I’m VERY happy about this development.

Boxman is quick to think of Venomous as a friend and I feel like with the way things are going Venomous will see Boxman as a friend too, but not know it until another big milestone happens. 

Venomous and Boxman coming home and looking like they really did just come from a date

Venomous cooing Fink as he leaves. 

I really like Villain’s Night In because it shows that its not just Boxman that benefits from their partnership. The Boxmore kids might learn to think for themselves more, Fink gets more friends and learns to like them, Venomous even comments that the siblings are better than his own babysitters revealing that the kids will probably interact more in the future, and Boxman will probably learn to be a better dad. Its feels like its previewing a dynamic that might work in the future. *wink wink*

ok thats it im gay

Sen Çal Kapımı Ep 40 anon asks

Thanks for the asks, it was fun to talk about this episode, answers under the cut

Anonymous asked: it's amazing how the addition of the kids brings such a new light, a breath of fresh air, in the show. and i'm normally someone that doesn't like kids in my stories/tv shows, but i somehow LOVE it here already. maybe because the way serkan's relationship with her will develop is so different than normal. i haven't felt my heart in these characters like this since maybe 28.. i was hestiant about the plot when it was first introduced but now i think it's exactly what the show needed right now

Agreed. I also usually don't like precocious children on my TV. The show Single Parents is the lone recent example where I was able to enjoy them, but that was mostly because they all acted and talked like adults, lmao.

However, seeing Eda and Serkan with their child and, watching Serkan bond with her, and then anticipating the three of them finding a way to forming the family they should have had all along... MY HEART.

Everything feels re-energized and fresh. You know, part of that is also probably the rest that the cast and crew were able to enjoy over hiatus. The pace they worked at for 11 straight months was ridiculous, I'm glad they all got the chance to recharge and then come back to revitalized writing as well. But to your point, Kiraz really has brought new light to the show and I'M HERE FOR THIS JOURNEY.

Anonymous asked: i didn't have any idea that i could look forward to scenes besides any other characters than eda and serkan in the show, but my want, no NEED, for more serkan and kiraz scenes are overwhelming. i'm so excited to see how their relationship develops and changes once he finds out thats his daughter. one thing ayse knows how to do is a good buildup, and i'm expecting nothing less here!

Yes, I'm going to look forward to Serkan/Kiraz scenes each and every episode. It seems like we're going to get at least an episode and a half before he figures it out, so I think the writers really wanted to show us Serkan bonding with her and falling under her spell before he has any idea of their real relationship.

It does feel special to have him soften towards her when he's hell bent on having nothing to do with children, but still feels this connection with the child without knowing why. In this episode they already showed us many parallels to his relationship with Eda, but there's a larger thematic one where Serkan Bolat does what he wants and is beholden to no one... until he meets a special lady who turns his life upside down and to whom he can't say no. The first time was Eda, now it's his daughter. I will never be over him being late to a meeting but sitting there waiting for a child he's never met to pick her blackberries.

I already feel my heart melting at the scenes I'm sure we're going to eventually get. The first time she calls him Baba. The first time they hug. The first time she falls asleep on him. The first time they say I love you. And Eda watching all of it with tears in her eyes. Gah!

Conversely the emotional scenes we are in for when Serkan finds out that Eda never told him and they both confront why and how that happened.... we're not ready!

Anonymous asked: Do you think Serkan never actually showed Eda that flower necklace again after he found it on the boat? It sounds like they were considered engaged again at some point but this wasn't used and he still has it in that form.... so has she always thought it was lost at sea? I actually don't care for it as her engagement ring anymore but I think if it came back up, I want him to give it to Kiraz. I think that'd be symbolic.

Yes, I would like that too, as long as its curse doesn't carry over to the next generation! Kiraz does not deserve the tragedy that has befallen her parents. Can they find some shaman or someone to spiritually cleanse it or something?

Since the necklace is in the vault I'm going to assume he never told her he rescued it from the boat. She probably still thinks its at the bottom of the sea. If you think about it, they got back together, he immediately found out about the tumor and started the bucket list and then when she found out they went right into fighting cancer mode. So he was probably waiting for the right moment to give it back to her and it never came.

Anonymous asked: The Burak character seems kinda boring so far. I don't think I'd even ship him with Melo - let's find her a hot guy off of the beach instead.

Agreed! So far he is blaaaaand, a bit whiney, but mostly a non-entity. Which at least tells you he wouldn't have stood a chance even if Serkan hadn't come back into her life. Our Eda would never end up with a slice of stale wonderbread.

Melo deserves far better as well. I really do hope they find someone for her before the end of the series, just because the character wants to be in love so badly, not because everyone has to end up paired off.

Anonymous asked: Why did Leyla leave Sen Cal Kapimi? Did last nights episode also confirm Ferit is never coming back?

I assume the writers/producers decided that the character of Leyla had run her course and wouldn't add much to a season 2. I'm not really surprised, as much as we enjoyed Serkan bey yelling her name, she was the only regular character that was often left out of big group scenes, and she just didn't really have much to do other than a little office comic relief once in a while.

Yes, Ferit is also gone, Cagri confirmed, however I'm not sure about the "never" coming back. He's not a part of this story arc, but I suppose you never know what can happen and I wouldn't rule out them bringing back characters like Ceren and Ferit for a guest spot in the series finale, maybe an appearance at an Edser wedding or something like that. Melisa is on a Fox show after all. You never know! But even if we never see them again, at least we know Ferit and Ceren are happy in London and looking forward to expanding their family.

Though, that does beg the question... did Ferit and Ceren get married? Because if they did and had a large wedding, that seems like an event that both Serkan and Eda would have been invited too...

Anonymous asked: i think the biggest difference that i wasn't expecting to feel, was how right away i felt like these characters were BACK, in a sense. the last few episodes of s1, after the memory plot, it just felt like we were floating aimlessly with the plot direction.. so they would just throw random plotlines in there in hopes to prolong the series. now, i immediately feel the cohesiveness of plot already, and maybe thats the benefit of getting to write way ahead of schedule and knowing when the end is.

Yes, I feel this way as well. They didn't seem to have a strong direction after the amnesia. I'm not sure what they would have done with the tumor plot if COVID hadn't ended the season early, but it didn't feel like they had a specific direction in mind.

As you say, in this episode it did feel like the characters were back, especially after so many were unrecognizable during the amnesia plot. GAH! Not to belabor the past, but they pretty much had to ruin every side character in order to make Selin-the-villain work and it was honestly one of the worst decisions they could have made. I still think how much better those episode would have been if they were just dealing with memory loss and the return of robot Bolat without all of her nonsense and every other character pretending it was normal.

As I said back then, if you have to ruin every character to make your plot work... rethink your plot.

Anyway, it does feel like they were able to write ahead. They've clearly been filming season 2 episodes 1-4 (40-43) a bit out of order, utilizing locations to their fullest. Rumor has it that 4 is the last episode that takes place out at the beach hotel...we shall see! I don't know if there's any truth to that or not.

Anonymous asked: Something I'm confused about - did they reveal who did the breaking up? Because if Serkan ended it with Eda, why was he so bitter during their first coffee meeting? Was he just being irrational and had no business being angry? Or do you think there's something they haven't shown yet that Eda did? It seems like the blame is entirely on him right now, even if we as the audience can understand why he'd push her away after the brain tumor

I think some of your confusion may stem from trying to "pick sides" in what appears to be a pretty tragic situation. Why are you trying to place blame? I honestly don't get this mentality.

It remains to be seen how this is going to play out, but you seem to be looking at it as if one party decided they didn't love the other or betrayed the other and that's why they broke up, while I personally can't imagine that's how it went down.

If you watch the flashbacks, they clearly were deeply in love and committed while he was fighting cancer, but it was taking a terrible toll on both of them and he was struggling with everything including his own mortality. Again, I don't know which direction they're going to go, but I'm willing to bet you big bucks that the break up was at his instigation but he did it because he wanted her to lead a better life than what he thought he could give her and he knew she would never leave unless he severed their ties and was cruel in the process.

Also I think you may have misread the reason he got angry during the coffee date. I didn't read it as general anger at her over the breakup. You might watch it again and see what happens right before he makes his hurtful remark. I thought he got touchy when she wouldn't tell him if she was in a relationship and then told him he didn't understand anything about love and that this was a mistake. This is a man who has probably been in love with her every minute of every day of the last five years and here she is telling him he doesn't know what love is. I can see why that set him off a bit and it's also why the writers had her apologize for that line after he apologizes first. I'm not saying that was fair of him, which is why he apologized, just understandable considering his emotions.

Also can't he be bitter at circumstances, fate, the universe, his illness, everything that has happened to him and kept him from the life he once dreamed of with her? And now, whether it's fair or not, he has this fear she's living it with someone else?

For me, shipping is much more fun if I'm not constantly picking sides and pitting one against the other.... so I don't. Period.

Anonymous asked: i've seen so many ppl in the fandom be mad at serkan for what he said during that coffee scene (how GOOD was that entire scene tho) but barely anyone mention that afterwards he APOLOGIZED!! they BOTH did for the things they said and how they knew they didnt mean it. i wish the fandom would take these angsty scenes in strides instead of using it to pin serkan and eda against each other when in the show they clearly move past it. they are actually TALKING! that should be more important.

Preach! This is what I'm saying. I loved that they were talking in this episode, something that was sorely missing from this show. And as you say he apologized! This is a man who in episode 9 ran all over town, handcuffed her, spent all day with her and did everything in his power to get her to forgive him except for the one easy thing which would have worked off the bat... apologizing. It's so hard for him and the fact that he did it here, the next day, and without cajoling from her or anyone else speaks to the fact that he has not regressed to full Robot Bolat. Some of the growth we saw is intact!

As far as being mad at Serkan, I don't get that. It's obvious that his cancer was a heartbreaking time for both of them and ended up ripping them apart. I don't understand how you vilify a character like Serkan after everything he's been through. Yes, Eda, poor thing, has been the one holding it all together through every heartbreaking thing that happened, but Serkan is the one who actually has lived it. He's the one who was in a plane crash, he's the one who was brainwashed and preyed on by a psycho, he's the one who had a year of his life erased, he's the one who got a brain tumor and was confronted with his own mortality. The man has been through constant trauma!

Like... can we cut them both some slack?

Anonymous asked: I think that the doctors told Serkan he couldn't have children as a consequence of the cancer treatments and that's the reason why he pushed Eda away. That would also explain why he tried to become immortal through architecture. At first I wasn't a fan of the time jump, but I loved bölüm 40. I cannot wait to see Serkan falling in love with his daughter, reading her fairy tales and teaching her magic tricks and all he knows about the stars. I hope that we get a flashback of Eda's graduation because I'm a hundred percent sure that he was there watching her.

Yes! I saw this theory on twitter, and now I hope it's how it plays out. If would make so much sense. He knows how badly Eda wants a family and if he found out that news, after probably already feeling horribly guilty about the way she put her life on hold because of him so many times, and in his (probably) post-illness depression, I could easily see him deciding he needed to push her away for her own good. So that she could go have the family she dreamed of and he wouldn't keep holding her back and ruining her dreams. In that state of mind he wouldn't have been thinking clearly, and adoption and other alternate ways to have a family wouldn't have even weighed with him. He would have just felt worthless and decided she was better off without him, and it's 100% entirely in character for him not to tell her the real reason why.

Can you imagine if he found that out and decides to push her away for her own good right when she's headed to tell him she's pregnant?? Gah! Timing! But she's never able to tell him because he knows she wants kids so he used that fact and emphatically tells her he doesn't want kids, he wants nothing to do with kids in order to drive her away? This sort of tragic misunderstanding is soooooo them.

And that would explain why he's still so adamant that he wants nothing to do with children. A self-defense mechanism because he had to put away his own dream of having a family with her. It would also explain why it might take him a few episodes to figure out the truth, if he doesn't think he can have children, it gives him no reason to suspect he does have a child.

We'll see how it plays out but this would be a way to keep both of them from being to "blame" for the breakup. Once again tragic circumstances, bad timing, and terrible communication.

One bright note, other than the GIANT secret Eda is keeping from him, their communication was improved during this episode. Eda, at least, got to have her say and it felt cathartic to watch.
