Bot Buddy who is Bulkhead's older sibling, member of the Elite Guard, interacting with Team Prime

SFW, familial, platonic, Cybertronian/ Bot reader

Transformers Prime

Part 3 of 3

“… Bulkhead did you adopted this one or something?”—Buddy

The team is surprised to see Buddy get on their knees to pay more attention to the humans. Buddy later gets an altmode with them and gets to hang out with Bulkhead.

Speak of which has not left Buddy’s side since the tackling. He wants to catch up on everything with them. Bulkhead is a bit hesitant when they are put out on the field without him. It makes him antsy. Not because he thinks that they can’t handle themselves. Mainly because his deep fear is them disappearing like last time and it being permanent.

“Buddy just promise me to not take on anything you know you can’t handle, okay?”--Bulkhead

“Don’t worry Bulk. Anyways it’s my job to worry about you not the other way around.”--Buddy

“Can we both worry about the other?”--Bulkhead

“… Alright.”—Buddy

He nearly had a spark attack seeing Buddy launch themselves straight at Predaking.

“Get off of him!!!”--Bulkhead

They did well by themselves for a while too. Whenever both are paired together, it is the equivalent of several semitrucks ramming into one another.

They do have their little sibling spats, mainly over little things like where to play lob or if it is necessary to break some things.

“Why are Bulkhead and Buddy not speaking this time?”--Wheeljack

“Bulkhead accidentally knocked down Buddy’s Jenga game.”—Miko

Miko via osmosis was now Buddy’s other sibling/charge. If Miko isn’t with Bulkhead or Wheeljack she is most likely with Buddy. Miko likes doing trust fall from Buddy’s height. Buddy has expressed the displeasure of the action, but they are powerless against Miko’s puppy eyes. Absolutely loves her to death though.

“Am your new charge now?”--Miko

“Miko you aren’t my charge.”--Buddy

“…”--Miko

“You’re my child now.”—Buddy

Jack is a bit wary of Buddy due to their giant size but gets used to them after a bit. Doesn’t hang out with Buddy that often but knows that he can trust Buddy.

“So, how’s things at school working out?”--Buddy

“There okay. I got a B in today’s Math test.”--Jack

“That’s nice.”--Buddy

Raf loves telling Buddy stories about his day and what has happened before their arrival.

“Then what happened?”--Raf

“I got his shaft and rammed to the side of the build to stop the both of us from falling off of the exercise course!”--Buddy

“Cool!”--Raf

When June and Fowler see Buddy they think that maybe Buddy was a former Decepticon turned Autobot. They are a bit shocked to find out that they are related to Bulkhead. They don’t mind Buddy. Often if the three of them are alone they are often found talking about the stress of looking after others.

“So, I’m not the only one here that dies a little inside when Miko starts running to the ground bridge?”--Buddy

“That’s right.”--June

“Yes.”—Agent Fowler

Has told both June and Fowler that if any harm were to come towards the kids that they would do whatever it takes to get them to safety. It’s a bit of a reliever but they still worry.

“I would die for them.”--Buddy

“Well that’s nice for you to look after the kids.”--June

“I. Would. Die. For. Them.”--Buddy

“…”—June and Agent Fowler

Buddy has already told Arcee, Bumblebee, and Bulkhead that they could be a sub and would absolutely lay their life down to make sure the kids are okay.

Bumblebee doesn’t like the way they talk and later asks if they want to talk about it.

Bumblebee via osmosis is now small sibling.

“Mine now.”--Buddy

“Beep?(What?)”—Bumblebee

Arcee tries brushing it off, but deep down is a bit concerned and relieved knowing that Jack has another pair of optics on him.

“I would die for Jack.”--Buddy

“What?”--Arcee

Bulkhead understandably is the most upset of the three because he knows that Buddy is dead serious. Don’t get him wrong, having another pair of optics on Miko from going into the ground bridge is a huge relief but he also doesn’t want to lose them.

“I would die for you and Miko.”--Buddy

“…please don’t…”--Bulkhead

Buddy and Smokescreen surprisingly get along well. The team later finds out its because he was constantly following Buddy during their time in the Elite Guard.

“Remember when I put a bunch of bolts in some of the stun guns?”--Smokescreen

“Remember when I beat you in the shooting range on the bet of a couple of rust sticks?”--Buddy

Ratchet is a bit hesitant with Buddy. Mainly because he is worried, he has to deal with another Bulkhead that’s twice as destructive. But is surprised in how gentle they are and how they manage to keep others from bothering Ratchet for too long, has respect for Buddy.

“Miko how about we go on a ride together and not bother Ratchet.”--Buddy

“Thank you.”--Ratchet

Optimus is just glad that he has another member join their forces. And sometimes engage in some small talk.

“Did you ever sit on that one bench in Iacon that always seemed tittering whenever you’d put any weight on it?”--Buddy

“… yes, I remember that bench.”—Optimus

Wheeljack constantly tries to break Buddy out of their shell. He wants to see the bot that annihilated those cons constantly.

“C’mon just go berserker one more time.”--Wheeljack

“For the last time Wheeljack no.”--Buddy

“You’ll end up like Magnus if you keep having a stick up—”--Wheeljack

“If I do it one more time, will you stop it?”--Buddy

“Maybe.”—Wheeljack

Ultra Magnus to everyone he looks like he has a strict coworker relationship. But really, he has one of the closest relationships with Buddy. Absolutely has Buddy’s back on the battlefield and at the base. Has bend rules a bit if it’s for Buddy.

“Buddy.”--Magnus

“Ultra Magnus sir.”--Buddy

“How are this evening’s reports coming along?”--Magnus

“All written down, except the most recent one.”--Buddy

“That was our patrol, no?”--Magnus

“Yes, sir. It should get done as soon as I finish with Miko’s music practice.”--Buddy

“No need to do that report. I will handle it.”--Magnus

“Oh? Thank you, Ultra Magnus, sir.”--Buddy

“Please, Ultra Magnus is perfectly fine.”--Magnus

“Then, thank you Ultra Magnus.”—Buddy

“…What was that?!”--Miko

“…”--Bulkhead

“Miko?! What have I said about eavesdropping?”--Buddy

“…”--Bulkhead

Bulkhead doesn’t know what to think about it.

[little-cereal-draws]

ok I need witchy help again. There's a grove of trees behind my dorm that's being cut down and I know there's nothing I can physically do to stop it but I want to protect the animals that live there.

There are two barbed wire fences and a highway separating us so I've never actually been in it, but I've been spending several hours a day looking at this grove for abt a year and a half. There's a shipping company located behind the trees and semitrucks with shipping containers drive around it. Idk what company it is but now they're cutting down the trees, adding lights that block out the stars, and paving over it. I watched them rip about a fourth of it out with their machinery this morning.

It makes me so fucking furious I want to go over there and tell them to stop and so sad that I want to cry. Those trees have been such an important part of my own mental health even if I can't get close to them and I know SO many creatures live there. I've started having stress dreams abt them ripping it out when they started abt a week ago and a lot of my dreams involved using magic to stop it.

I tried googling it but I couldn't find any protective charms or spells for the environment, they were all protection for yourself that uses the environment. I don't want to want to hex that company, I just want to protect the animals that live there and give them a new place to stay. I am a baby witch who's also a broke/busy college student so smth that's quick and easy would be preferred but I'll take anything.

More of my angry rant under the cut bc I'm furious

List of animals that I've seen living in the trees and in the small swamp in front of it over the years:

opossums

multiple families of raccoons

a cat colony with kittens

eight different species of frogs

cranes

many different species of corvid

owls

bats

a family of red shouldered hawks

vultures

rabbits

foxes

many different species of jay

snakes

leeches (yes they deserve to be saved too)

turtles

skinks

lizards

geckos

many different species of insects, there's no way I can list them all

hummingbirds

mourning doves

a singular alligator

Every single fucking day I watch the cranes fly East to sleep on the river as the sun sets. I've seen them fly West to the swamps as the sun rises too. I saw two vultures courting the other day. The raccoons, cats, and opossums don't run from me anymore and will happily let me get within a few feet of them (I never try to touch them). I know exactly which trees the bats live in. I saw a moth that was bright blue and orange, mimicking a species of wasp. I saw a species of hawk I had never seen before. I talk and sing to the trees even if there are no animals there. That was the only place I've seen a wild fox. The cranes land in the swamp and hunt the frogs. There's a huge bullfrog that lives in the back corner. I've saved baby snakes and turtles from cars. They both easily fit in the palm of my hand. I thought I found an injured bird the other day and was totally ready to help it even though I don't know how (it turned out to be fine, just behaving really strangely). Every time it rains, I go out and pick worms off the sidewalk for hours. The trees are where I go to get away from the stress of my schoolwork, my two jobs, and my roommates.

I need this ecosystem so fucking much, I have hung so much of my mental health on it and now they're coming in and ripping it out and paving over it!!!! They're putting more barbed wire, more pavement, more streetlights. I want to see the tall grass and the puddles and the trees and the hills not a FUCKING PARKING LOT WITH TRUCKS BEHIND A FENCE. I AM SO SCARED FOR THE CREATURES THAT LIVE THERE, I NEED THEM TO BE OK. EVEN IF I LOSE THE TREES, I'LL FEEL BETTER KNOWING THAT THE ANIMALS ARE SOMEPLACE SAFE. THERE'S A HIGHWAY LITERALLY ON ALL SIDES, I DON'T KNOW WHERE ELSE THEY CAN GO. I NEED THEM TO BE OK

[sennamybeloved]

yk what? fuck it. in honor of 4/20, here are some stoner headcanons for a bunch of my f/os.

cw for recreational weed usage below the cut.

SENNA — total stoner. stoner in the truest sense of the word. smokes all the fucking time. uses weed as a coping mechanism. — very high cannabis tolerance. — grows her own weed in our garden/the basement of our house. also makes her own edibles (it's the only thing she can make without burning the house down, somehow.) — gets remarkably chill when she's high. the heaps of stress she deals with constantly kinda disappear if she smokes enough, which is why she does it so much. — gets very giggly sometimes. becomes 100x less mature than she usually is. — ends up laughing every time i try to talk to her. — shows me stupid videos on her phone that made her laugh a little too hard. — either that, or she just gets really sleepy. she lays on the couch, eats chips, and watches bad tv before taking the best nap of her fucking life. — gets the munchies so severely. she could eat lucian and i out of house and home. — with some strains she can actually get up and make art. she does beadwork/jewelry-making and paints sometimes. — has the best advice for coping with bad highs. — generally just has the best tips if you want to get into smoking; she was a huge help to me when i first started. — being around her while she's high is a great experience. 10/10.

LUCIAN — significantly less entertaining to be around. — will pass out after 20 minutes no matter the strain. — sleeps so hard. you could like, hit him with a semitruck and he'd still be snoring. — wakes up with major munchies- but not as bad as senna's. — sometimes gets too high and lays on the ground at looks at the sky/ceiling/whatever for hours, floating between different planes of existence. — smokes to turn his brain off when he feels depressed. works about half of the time. — (un)surprisingly cuddly. clings to senna and i like his life depends on it. — overview: sleepy.

AHRI — becomes the worst version of herself. — really fucking obnoxious. her mind is running totally free, prompting her to spew out every stupid thought that comes to her. this is only entertaining for the first 10 minutes or so, until you realize that she is not going to shut up! — very giggly and talkative. — never passes out, no matter the strain. — her favorite thing to annoy me with is different variants of 20 questions. either turns really hilarious or really, really depressing. — prefers edibles over actually smoking. tends to eat more than she should, causing her to green out... a lot. — two words: playful aggression. roughhouses me, rips joints out of my hands, shoves/hits/scratches me, says the meanest fucking things with a big, shit-eating grin on her face. — has bitten me so hard that it's drawn blood. — has a great time. the people she is with will probably not have a great time, though. except for me, because i think she's wonderful.

MARLENE — not a huge smoker honestly. she only got into it after she started hanging out with me. — smokes to relieve stress. — totally chill when she's high. prefers to just hang out and watch tv or eat. — very cuddly. keeps her hand in mind or an arm around my shoulders when we're talking. enjoys laying with her head on my chest, or mine on hers. — she isn't very good at formulating words when she's intoxicated, but she likes listening to me talk. — likes to smoke while listening to music. i have a playlist made specifically for when we get stoned. — doesn't like to smoke alone; sometimes suffers from a little bit of paranoia. — has the best sleeps of her entire life when she is high.

T BUG — doesn't smoke a whole lot. it's a fucking ordeal whenever she does, though. — already a philosophy nerd, but becomes even more of a nerd when she's high. her philosophies start making less and less sense, until they either devolve into garbled quotes from ancient philosophers or borderline conspiracy theories. — has managed to convince herself that arasaka has her chipped. — has also tried to convince me to rob a building owned by a corpo while we were both high. i said no (we would've both died) but i considered it. — major munchies. bad takeout food is a must. we've gotten lost on the streets of night city searching for a burger joint before. — she smokes to help with the headaches and nausea she suffers as a result of the injuries she received during the arasaka tower attack. — usually very talkative, but gets sleepy after a while.

DUTCH — oh my god. he is the worst! — doesn't shut the fuck up. like ever. — also philosophizes, except everything he says is so mind-numbingly stupid. you just want him to shut up so bad. — states really basic concepts like they're profound and groundbreaking. — either that, or he will become really in touch with his emotions and memories (and by extension, is poor behaviors) and get really whiny and start talking about how he doesn't deserve me and blah blah blah. — after that he'll pass out so fucking hard. like i couldn't wake him up even if i tried.

ILLAOI — seasoned stoner. very chill about it. — she smokes like all the time with other buhru people. it's a bonding exercise in their village. — very high tolerance. smokes more than could ever be considered reasonable and never greens out. — owns a collection of fancy ceramic bongs. — becomes super relaxed and zen and in touch with her faith when she's stoned. it's one of her favorite experiences. — doesn't usually smoke along; she enjoys sharing stories and laughing with friends- or me. — she will try any weird edibles people offer her. the less she knows about their origins, the better. she views it as a fun challenge (someone could poison her and she wouldn't gaf.) — gave me the best advice when i started smoking. never had a bad high with her because she's just so chill. she makes everything great. — whenever i feel like i'm floating away she'll wrap one of her big ass arms around me and just hold me against her body. fixes me every time.

The Blue Dahlia: Chapter 1

Chapter Summary: Guess you’re just gonna have to read it. Mwahaha.

Season:13

Warnings: Blood, injury, supa powers, actiony stuff, angsty teen. So PG 13 stuff.

0. Prequel

The girl sat down in a cushioned chair in front of a brown desk in the middle of a crowded police station. She felt weary as the room was noisy with voices and telephone sounds.

“So, Dean Winchester right?” the police woman asked.

“Yes,” the girl simply replied. The police woman with name of Sherral on her desk began to search the databases. Her eyes widened as she sighed.

“You’re looking for a missing felon,” Sherral told her.

“A felon?” the girl asked unsure of what that word meant.

“He’s been accused of credit card fraud, kidnapping, first degree murder, breaking and entering, robbery, assault, and impersonating an officer. You sure you’re looking for this guy?” Sherral gave the girl with short blue hair a concerning look as she turned the computer screen around so she could see the Winchester’s mug shot. The girl instantly recognized him.

“Yes, that’s him. Where is he?” she asked.

“No one knows. He’s been missing for a while. Presumed dead. Probably dead.”

“That’s not good. I need to find him,” the girl frowned and folded her hands together.

“Well when you do, call us first,” the police woman joked.

“Okay, thank you.” The girl stood up from the chair.

“Hey wait a minute, give me your name and your number,” Sherral said but then suddenly, she slumped over her desk, snoring. The girl with short blue hair swiftly and quietly exited the station.

The girl wandered down the sidewalk for a bit while gazing at the sky. She thought it was so fascinating the way the clouds moved and changed shape to look like something else. It was like watching TV like the other humans did.

Without paying attention, she wandered into a crosswalk without her light being green. A long loud horn caught her attention and her head whipped to the side seeing a semitruck heading towards her. It was starting to slow down but not fast enough, so she decided to help them.

The truck stopped instantly as if it had crashed into a cement wall. The whole front of the truck had been smashed flat and the driver inside had been impaled with the glass from the front window. His seatbelt and airbag did him no good because a shard of glass had found its way into the driver’s eye socket.

The girl slowly blinked at the semi unsure why so much damage had been inflicted on the vehicle and the human. Shrugging it off, she continued to cross the street. The drivers behind the semi had crashed into the back possibly causing more deaths and injuries. Everyone in the intersection was too distracted to see the girl walk away uninjured.

A few minutes later, some ambulance and police zoomed past her, but she was too busy focusing on the grocery store to care. She was hungry.

She wandered into a food mart and began to roam the aisles. She grabbed a large bag of Nacho Cheese Doritos and dug her hand in as she gazed at the other chips. She stuffed the chips in her mouth contently.

Once she got to the end of the aisle, she decided she was sick of the taste and traded the chips for an unopened pretzel bag. An employee walked by and did a double take.

“Are you going to pay for those?” the woman asked, and the blue haired girl stared at her blankly before having an epiphany.

“Oh yes, what would you like in return?” the girl asked.

“Um…money?” the employee said slowly.

“Money?” The girl wondered. She had nothing but the clothes on her back which consisted of a pair of overalls and a maroon shirt underneath that she had stolen from a house she broke into a couple days before.

“Yeah. You know, currency, moolaw, cash, bank?” the employee listed off the other names.

“Oh! I don’t have any,” she said simply.

“I’m going to have to call the police then. You’re shop lifting.” The woman pulled out a phone.

“Shop lifting? I’m not carrying the whole store. This is just food,” she said confused. The woman looked at her like she was crazy and began to dial the police.

“Will the police give me food?” she asked.

“Yeah sure,” the lady mumbled. “Yeah hi there, we have a shop lifter here at the local food mart. Short girl, short blue hair, green eyes. Yeah, see you soon.” The woman looked up at the blue haired girl. “Stay right here and the police will come get you.”

“Okay,” the girl said and sat down against the aisle.

 “You again?”

The girl looked up to see Sherral standing there. The girl smiled and stood up. She had finished the bag of pretzels. “Hello Sherral. The woman who worked here told me that you would give me food.” Sherral gave her a strange look deciding that the girl was mentally ill somehow.

“Yeah, come here.” Sherral said and the girl walked up to her. “Turn around.” The girl easily complied but was surprised when the officer began to grab her arms and pinch them with metal.

“Ow! That hurts! What are you doing?”

“You’re under arrest. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be provided for you—”

“Hey! Let me go! I didn’t do anything wrong!” she shouted but when the officer wouldn’t unhand her, she went flying harshly into the chip shelf. Several bags of now crushed chips fell to the floor. Some were popped open by the force of the throw causing several types of crushed chips rained down onto the floor. The handcuffs on the girl’s wrists snapped apart and she began to run.

This caught the attention of several other officers on the scene who pulled out their guns. She was scared. She didn’t understand what was happening at all, but when the guns started to go off, she instinctively ducked and covered her ears as she headed for the main doors.

She screamed when a bullet bit into her arm like a raging beast which caused all the windows to shatter and the lights to blow out. This caused the cops to stop as glass from the above lights rained down on them. This gave her time to jump out of the store through the blown glass doors. The glass on the edges of the doors caught some of the skin on both arms making her cry out in pain but that didn’t stop her.

Luckily, there were no police outside, so she was able to bolt down the street without being seen. The sun was starting to descend from the sky so more shadows grew over the street. She was able to find a space between some buildings and hide in a dark corner against the brick. She spent a couple hours crying silently and bleeding. She didn’t understand why they hurt her or why she was bleeding. The pain was a lot for her to handle and soon she was hiccupping because she had cried so much and so hard.

Quickly, it began to rain creating a noise that could over power her cries that were now starting to become verbal. The water soaked into her skin and made her shiver. She didn’t understand anything, and it was frustrating. She was only born a week ago. Why did everything have to be so hard? Why did everyone have to be so mean?

She had been crying so much that she didn’t realize that someone was kneeling in front of her. She gasped and pressed her body against the brick wall as much as she could.

“It’s okay. I won’t hurt you.” His smile was soft and kind, but he was probably mean like all the others. “Why are you crying?” He looked soaked too, but was wearing a water proof jacket.

“They…they wanted to hurt me,” she said in between hiccups. “I…I was���hungry,” she sniffled and hugged her knees.

“Are you making it rain?” the boy asked. His sandy blonde hair clung to his forehead like her blue hair stuck to her cheeks.

“I don’t know,” she said honestly. “It started to rain when I started to cry.” Her breathing was still irregular.

“My name is Jack. What’s yours?” Jack asked.

“I don’t know,” she said, and Jack tilted his head in curiosity.

“You forgot your name?” he asked.

“No,” she shook her head. “I wasn’t given one. Mom said that would be dad’s job.” The rain began to slow down to a light drizzle.

“Who’s your dad?” Jack asked.

“His name is Dean Winchester. I’ve been looking for him for the past two days,” she explained, her voice now calmer.

Jack slowly looked up and to the side. The girl followed his gaze finally seeing two men standing a couple feet away. The shorter man stepped forward.

“What?” he said. The blue haired girl couldn’t see their faces in the dark. She didn’t think he had heard her, so she began to repeat herself.

“His name is Dean Winchester. I’ve—”

“Yeah, I heard you. Just stop. That’s not possible.” The shadowed man waved his hands in the air in disbelief.

“Why not?” she asked, tilting her head.

“Because,” the man stepped into a patch of moonlight. “I’m Dean Winchester.”

“Tell my daughter that even though her mother is a criminal, there’s nothing to be ashamed of.”

Premise After Detective Jo Soo Ji loses her daughter and watches the killer walk, she turns in her badge and decides to take the law into her own hands. Eventually, she meets up with a group of individuals who have suffered similar losses at the hands of the justice system. Together, they start to get revenge, unravel a massive conspiracy at the prosecutor’s office, and begin to work together as a team of vigilantes.

Characters

Detective Jo Soo Ji. 

Our leading lady, Detective Jo is a certified Action Mom ready to fight. The story kicks off after the murder of her 7 year-old daughter, and avenging her death is the major driving point. Impulsive and reckless, she does all the Extra action scenes such as rappelling down a multi-story building using laundry lines and using a motorcycle to stop a semitruck #Holla. 

After being on the run for a year, and working with Kyung and Bo Mi, she starts to suspect the intentions of the team’s mysterious “leader,” as well as begins to Go Rogue to get justice for her daughter.

Gong Kyung Soo.  A skateboarder slash hacker. Excitable, and the other half of the ground-team, Kyung is really just trying to have everyone Get Along. We don’t know much about his background at the moment, though like Bo Mi and Detective Jo it’s implied that he has also lost a loved one. 

Master of disguise. Steps on nails. Would rather level-up his video game character than protect major arteries. Likes to hold hands.

Seo Bo Mi. A reclusive young woman who hasn’t left her apartment in several years. She has hacked into a good chunk of Seoul’s cameras and CCTVs, and serves as the eyes for the ground team as they run their various missions. there’s hints that there’s some Severely Traumatic Shit in her past

passes her time yelling at people and being mistaken for an old woman. Loves stuffed animals. keeps this shit running on schedule.

Jang Do Han.

On the surface: slimey, kiss-ass prosecutor who buys incredibly expensive shirts and would rather update his pretentious foodie Instagram than do his damn job.

Actually.... spoilers. the mysterious mastermind behind the team. no one knows his role in the guardians’ operation, and his motives are still unclear. end spoilers.

Prosecutor Kim Eun Joong.  a nice guy prosecutor who’s just here to do his damn job. has an antagonistic relationship with Jang Do Han and a crush on Detective Jo. Is Trying His Best ™ but none of these clowns are making it easy for him.  

Review

This is not my type of show. But as someone who usually hates procedural crime thrillers, let me tell you that I’m enjoying the hell out of this one. 

Drawbacks

i think this is the definition of “last episode ruins incredibly good show.” this was one of my Ultimate Favorites and then that last ep!!! why!!!!!

Jang Do Han is pretty damn unlikeable as a human for our lead dude. his prosecutor persona is slimey as hell and his Mastermind persona seems to indicate that he’s using everyone as pawns for his own agenda. I’m totally fine with this (and in fact, find it super fun) but i know that might be a turn off for some people. It’s important to note, however, that the show’s only halfway in and there’s a Lot Of Shit To Still Go Down (latest eps hint that he is Starting to Care)

Look, this shit gets Dark sometimes. the premise of the story means there’s going to be some brutal/tragic storylines so definitely don’t watch if you want a fluffy crime show (watch Suspicious Partner for that, because that show is also amazing)

Plot pieces are starting to line up, but if you’re someone who hates waiting for Reveals this might not be the show for you (or I’d rec watching it once it’s over)

Reasons to Watch

The action scenes are so A+++ and Detective Jo is pretty much doing all of them. For everyone who wanted the Jaded Detective Takes Law In Their Own Hands To Avenge Murdered Family to be a lady, this show is for you

The pacing is really good imo. Again, I HATE procedurals usually but this one keeps me tuning in. Think Leverage but with a more prominent overarching plot

FOUND FAMILIES. they’re starting to really come together as a team at this point in the show and it’s so great

COMPETENT LADIES EVERYWHERE. Lady detectives (plural!!). Lady Congresswomen. Lady vigilantes. i’m just really excited to see more prominent female characters that are as important and developed as the dudes

A cute, subtle romance is possibly happening between Bo Mi and Kyung Soo and im here for it

the OST makes me want to punch my way to justice

Final Thoughts

Give it a shot if you’re in the mood for ladies kicking ass, the people fighting against a corrupt legal system, and awesome action scenes! This is filling the Leverage void in my heart quite awesomely!
