Idk but to me Ricky and nini always seemed a little forced. I really appreciate the subtlety of hsmtmts! Like Jets feelings for Kourtney are noticeable when you rewatch and same with Maddox and Ash. Hsmtmts has always thrives on a mix between subtlety and blatantly showing the audience, like the duet with Ej and Gina as Hans and Anna pretty blatantly showed they weren’t gonna work out. It made it hard to find nini and Ricky interesting when everything about them was always shoved in there somehow, like every confessional and every scene they would just describe how they were feeling and what was happening in this very unnatural way that people do not do.

But Ricky and Gina showed off Tims mix of subtlety and showing instead of telling the audience. We don’t hear about Ricky’s feelings THAT much but we can SEE his totally hopeless pining (side note Joshua basset put his whole SOUL into that unrequited longing) and not to be mean (even though it’s totally fair game at this point) it just makes the portwell and rini shippers look not very clever at this point. At the very least they should be able to admit that rina was gonna happen at some point but pretending to not see it AT ALL, makes them look either blind or just petty.

i agree they always seemed forced! i enjoy rina madlyn and jetney for the same reasons you listed. even with redlyn they showed why their relationship worked instead of JUST telling us. for portwell and rini the only time they showed us something about their relationship instead of telling us is showing they didn’t work.

i think a large part of the problem is all of their development was off screen and so was their first relationship besides the s1 flashback. there’s definitely a way to show exes to lover’s relationship and/or a relationship that has history pre show and make it interesting but for rini that just didn’t happen. they just simply tell us they had this loving relationship and that they know each other so well but they don’t show it all. if anything it seemed like they didn’t know each other well. and that’s funny considering they shoehorned in them being childhood best friends. which is still funny to me because they don’t feel like childhood best friends at all. it’s very similar to dawson and joey where they’re telling us they’re best friends and are each others person when the only evidence of them on screen (tho they attempted with dawson and joey but failed in my opinion) is the characters saying it. we don’t actually get to see their bond ☠️☠️. it’s one of my biggest problems with the best friends to lovers trope in general despite me loving it - the fact half the time the ships with it don’t actually feel like they’ve known each other for that long or have history.

with rini it’s funny to me because going with the idea they’re childhood friends to me they just feel like that relationship that only got together because everyone expected them to. like i don’t think we even actually know why ricky and nini liked each other besides ricky holding onto her for comfort 😭😭

i actually said before (here x) that i think one of the reasons some people don’t get rina is because it’s not being told to you it’s being SHOWN to you and they called rina forced in s3 bc their relationship became fully text in s3 instead of subtext (even though s1 and esp s2 was obvious enough but i digress). portwell and rini was in your face from the beginning they started to both of them ending but their stans missed the fact they would eventually break up bc the show was SHOWING you instead of telling you the reasons they would eventually not work out (besides in s2b for rini and s3 for portwell where the underlying reasons their relationships would fail started becoming obvious ��. in which then their stans said it’s forced ….)

your second paragraph !!!! i said the same thing here. i just don’t understand how they can see them having no closure and the rina relationship just constantly being put on hold instead of being put to rest and think nothing was ever going to happen or get addressed. sure i started to think rina was never happening but not because it made sense that their story is over. i just thought the writers were bad at writing 😭😭 but like i said in the post they refused to see them as romantic in s1 and then said it was one sided in s2 and that the flashback was closure and ricky never liked her and then one sided on ricky’s end in s3 and now say s3 and their feelings don’t make sense …. they want to talk about bad writing so much but leaving rina open and never closing their book would have been the bad writing.

joey maddox ( brenda song ) - involved in a supernatural being terrorizing her hometown and defeating it / based on richie tozier from it

summer mahoney ( samara weaving ) - former member of a cult that’s still intact in the desert, though she keeps quiet about it now in her life.

[prcttylittlethings-a]

which type of romanticism are you?   ( quizzes - joey maddox )

fresh romanticism

shrink-wrapped smiles, stolen glances, blushed cheeks: you're fresh romanticism. fresh romanticism is the essence of a new relationship, it's the excitement in discovering new things about your lover and falling in love with each and every one of them, it's the first time you notice the faded scar on their knee, the first time you eat their favorite food together. you can be a bit naïve at times, but as they say, ignorance is bliss... isn't it? you have a distinct lust for life and are eager to love. fresh romanticism isn't as juvenile a concept as it may seem at first; after all, every relationship is new at some point. remember to slow down a bit at times, but never lose that spark and excitement for love you so clearly carry around.

Title: Talkin’ ‘Bout My Generation WC: 1000

“So what are you, Officer Babysitter?” — Joey “Monster” Malone, Under the Influence (5 x 11) 

He’s a little surprised at the way Esposito steps up when they’re about to lose Joey Malone to either foster care of juvenile hall. It’s not that Esposito is any less dedicated than the rest of them—he’s seen first hand the ends of the earth the man went to with Lockwood, and again the summer after Beckett’s shooting, and once more when Cole Maddox came calling. He’s seen first hand the compassion and empathy he can wield, and he feels rather bad for being surprised. 

It’s just that a kid—a teenager who is clearly chock full of issues—is quite the undertaking, even if it’s just for a night, and neither nurturing nor a knack for supervision tops the list of the fine Detective’s fine qualities. And yet, Esposito had apparently piped right up with the solution, and he’s kind of wondering about it. He would kind of like to ask her about it, but there’s a vibe coming off her that he hasn’t quite made sense of yet. 

So he takes the win instead. He embraces the fact that Esposito is on teen watch, and Ryan is following up on what meager leads they have. He does a little dance when he realizes that means she gets to knock off early, and he has the honor and privilege of trying to coax her into actually doing something relaxing instead of sticking around to do paperwork or going off to her place—sans him—to hone her superhero skills, or whatever else objectively boring thing she goes back to her place—sans him—to do. 

“Feet up at my place?” He uses helping her on with her coat as an excuse to speak low in her ear. “I could fix you a bowl of Lucky Charms—just marshmallows—for dinner and we could watch something mindless?” 

Her eyes light up briefly at the prospect of Lucky Charms, just the good parts. He wonders, not for the first time, how a woman who keeps herself in absolutely top-of-the-line shape has such terrible eating habits, but he’s not too proud to work that angle. There are few tactics he won’t deploy if they up his chances of an evening with her. He thinks that this tactic has given him a lock on the foreseeable future, but she reverses course. She looks at her shoes and shake her head. 

“That sounds tempting.” She smiles at him. “It is tempting, but . . .” 

“But you have something better to do than abuse your pancreas and yell at True Blood for how egregiously dumb it’s gotten?” He’s not hitting the right tone. He’s too jocular and simultaneously too blasé, as though he can take it or leave it if she decides to head to her place rather than his. He still hasn’t deciphered the vibe she’s been putting out ever since she emerged from the conference with Joey Malone’s case worker. 

“I just—“ He follows her eyeline through the blinds and into the conference room where Esposito is still engaged in signing his soul away in blood by the looks of it. She sighs and looks back at him, shaking her head apologetically. She searches the surface of her desk as though she’s looking for some busy work to latch on to. She starts to unbutton her coat. “I think I should stick around here a while longer . . .” 

She trails off, and he suddenly wonders if the reason he can’t translate her current vibe is because she can’t translate it. She’s standing in the no man’s land between desks, pivoting to spy on the conference room proceedings, then back to the board, then back to Esposito and his administrative saga. 

“You’re worried about him,” he says, surprising himself, as he’s just put the pieces together. “You’re worried that Esposito . . .” 

He stops. His brow furrows hard core as he tries to hang specifics on the worry she’s radiating. It’s no easy task, though. He is suddenly—and not entirely fairly—flooded with awareness of Esposito’s not-so-fine qualities. He is almost pathologically impatient and stubborn. To say he has a hair-trigger temper is an insult to hair triggers everywhere. He’s never met a problem that he did not firmly believe he could not chase down and pummel into submission. All of that could be a problem. It could very definitely be a problem. He turns to her, and he knows—he knows—that his face is blank with completely unhelpful horror. 

“There’s nothing to worry about,” she snaps as she spins out of his orbit. She wrestles her coat off one shoulder, but she’s missed a button and she’s kind of stuck. “I’m not worried.” 

“You are,” he says gently. He frees the button she’s missed and steps back to give her space. She’s not above a little chasing and pummeling herself, not that he objects. “You’re“—he hesitates a second, but it’s just too sweet a realization to let pass by—“You’re mom worried about him.” 

“Mom worried?” It comes out loud enough that  she startles herself. “Mom worried is not a thing,” she grumbles about a million decibels lower. She yanks her sleeve back on and  fiddles with the placket of her coat, then looks up at him uncertainly. “Mom worried is stupid.” 

It’s not quite a question. It’s a plea for reassurance, for an explanation that he doesn’t have about how these things work—who worries about whom. He doesn’t have an explanation, but he has quick fingers and there’s a bowl of Lucky Charms—just marshmallows—in her future. 

“Not stupid.” He discreetly places a hand at her lower back and ushers her toward the elevator. “Mom worry is one of the most powerful forces in the universe. That energy’ll get him through.” 

She sighs and steps to the back of the elevator car. She casts one more look in the direction of Esposito, of “Monster” and the unlikely duo the two of them make. “It better.” 

A//N: Long week to say the least. This is long, to say the most. Neither of these are things.

The Linc - Jeffrey Lurie has a message for Eagles fans

Let’s get to the Philadelphia Eagles links ...

A Message From Jeffrey Lurie: 25 Years Of Special Memories - PE.com We have captured eight NFC East titles and advanced to six NFC Championship Games. We pushed through to the Super Bowl in 2004. And, in 2017, we accomplished our ultimate goal of bringing the first Lombardi Trophy to Philadelphia. And, who can forget Jason Kelce’s speech dressed as a Mummer! Like many of you, that day – the parade down Broad Street and the celebration on the Art Museum steps – will forever be part of our history. It was magical and enlightening to share that historic moment, filled with tears of joy and happiness, with each of you. The special bond between you, our players, and this organization is what pushes us to win more Championships in the future. I can’t wait to do it all over again!

The Eagles have some big decisions to make on their free agents - BGN There were a few reasons why the Eagles struggled to a 9-7 record in 2018. The main contributor was injuries, with an inconsistent secondary and backfield hurting the team (again, injuries) as well. But another one was the lack of production by several players. Fortunately for the Eagles, a lot of them are about to become free agents, so it will be easy to move on from them. For others, there are arguments for and against bringing them back.

On the Move? - Iggles Blitz Avonte Maddox – The rookie DB started at nickel, CB and FS in 2018. He showed a lot of promise and must be a starter in 2019. But where? If the Eagles let go of Rodney McLeod, then moving Maddox to FS would make a lot of sense. Maddox covers a lot of ground and takes good angles to the ball, a critical skill for a deep safety. He is a good tackler. Maddox has good ball skills. I think Cre’Von LeBlanc will be the nickel in 2019 so that means Maddox is playing outside or at FS.

Wentz’s 2018 numbers shouldn’t be overlooked - NBCSP A quick breakdown of Carson Wentz’s performance on the field for the Eagles in the 11 games he played.

Driving The 101 With Sean McVay: On Texting Belichick, Trusting Goff and the Plan for Super Bowl 53 - FMIA There’s no doubt in my mind that McVay and offensive coordinator Zac Taylor have used this week to mine for things the Patriots have never seen in formations and plays and maybe even personnel groupings, and so won’t have been able to prepare for them. The Eagles used that approach last year, and it worked.

Welcome to the Super Bowl, Where Patriots-Rams Is the NFL in Microcosm - MMQB The game might come down to second-tier guys. When I asked Nagy about stars like Todd Gurley and Brandin Cooks matching up on the New England defense, he said, “They’ll have a good plan for those guys, for sure. So whether it’s your third guy or your fourth guy, if you have a matchup that you like, then that’s where you can get them. Your other guys have to make plays when given opportunities.” Last year in the Super Bowl, that was Corey Clement for the Eagles. And it’s why when I asked Nagy for an X factor for the Rams, he said he’d take Robert Woods and Gerald Everett, guys who’ll get less attention and may draw the kinds of matchups Nagy referenced. Then, I asked for the Patriots’ X factor, and similar logic applied.

Redskins expect Alex Smith to miss 2019 season - Hogs Haven Dan Snyder needs a spark and that could come from signing/trading for a Joe Flacco, Ryan Tannehill, or Nick Foles kind of veteran. They could also trade up in the draft to get one of the top QBs this year, maybe another Heisman winner. Either option is going to cost a lot in draft capital, and potentially salary cap if they go for another pricey veteran band aid.

Why The NFL Can’t Rely On Defense - FiveThirtyEight In an NFL season marked by historic offensive production and a championship round that was conspicuously absent a top-10 defense, aficionados of low-scoring rock fights, filled with punts and field goals, have been left disappointed. The best defensive teams to make the playoffs were eliminated early in the tournament, with the Bears, Ravens and Texans all losing in the wild-card round. A week later, Joey Bosa and the emerging Chargers defense were dismantled by the Patriots, and the Cowboys — perhaps the best defensive team left in the divisional round based on their end-of-season play — lost to the Rams. Extracting the strong defensive teams with relatively weak offenses led to historically exciting playoff football, producing two overtime games in the championship round for the first time in NFL history. Now we have a Patriots and Rams Super Bowl pitting perhaps the greatest QB of all time in Tom Brady against the hottest young offensive mind in the league in Sean McVay. We shouldn’t be surprised that great offensive teams have made it this far. Teams are more reliably good — and bad — from game to game and year to year on offense than on defense. Individual defenders often have wild swings in performance from season to season, and defensive units forecast to be dominant often end up being merely average. The Jacksonville Jaguars’ defense took them as far as the AFC championship a year ago, but that same defense led them to five wins this season. Meanwhile, performance on offense is generally easier to forecast, making investments on that side of the ball more reliable.

Jason Witten broke the Pro Bowl trophy in half, a fitting end to his awful year at ESPN - SB Nation Jason Witten just can’t catch a break at his new job. The longtime Dallas Cowboys tight end took over as the Monday Night Football color commentator for ESPN in 2018 and found out it isn’t nearly as easy as Tony Romo makes it sound. Witten — along with Booger McFarland — were a disaster all year long. The perfect cherry on top of his rough rookie season at ESPN came just after the Pro Bowl. In his last TV time of the season, Witten broke the dang Pro Bowl trophy in half.

You see, determining a baby’s sex can be a bit tricky for someone fresh out of med school who is a tad bit overwhelmed and not quite as confident as one should be. Joey and Zane Xavier were told they were having twin boys when given the sex of their babies and they were ecstatic. Five months spent believing they were having twin boys, names were picked out, the nursery was decorated (thankfully in yellow because Joey wanted a happy color versus a gender norm color) and the boys already had more toys before their birth than any baby actually should. 

Eddie and Maddox Xavier came screaming into the world on Christmas Eve, something Zane, to this day, feels is unfair as he never wanted his children to feel cheated out of their birthday’s or holiday’s. They weren’t boys, though. They were very much twin girl’s, identical, from the full head of dark hair to the wide, crystal blue eyes. Joey and Zane had debated changing the names they had already picked out, but decided against doing so, though Edward was changed to Edith and Maddox’s name was left untouched. 

Maddox Kayla Xavier has always been a bit too wild for this world. Her excess energy has been thrown into as many extracurricular activities as she was allowed to participate in. Softball, soccer, track and field, anything to keep her burning the adrenaline she constantly feels coursing through her veins. Maddox, who often goes by Max, will never tell you she’s a tomboy because she’s not. She loves wearing dresses as much as her sister does (and sometimes it’s fun to wear the same outfit and watch people get confused over who is who, it’s no wonder the Weasley twins are their favorite Harry Potter characters), but she’s also not afraid to get her hands dirty. Maddox is a bit more liberated with her opinions and incredibly open with her sexuality - she loves everyone, plain and simple. At 21, she’s already been in love six times at this stage in her life and she most assuredly will fall in love at least one more time before this year is out. Maddox loves change, she’s eager to see the world and once she has enough money saved up from being a rock climbing instructor at the local recreation center, she’s going to pack up her old Ford pick-up and hit the road. 

Edith Stella Xavier is the younger twin by a full ten minutes. She’s been a stubborn sprite since birth and she’s a good five inches shorter than her older sister. Eddie is the blonde bombshell to a T. She’s smart, incredibly so, but she doesn’t allow people to see that about her. She graduated top of her class in high school, but refused to accept the position of valedictorian because she’s never wanted people to expect more from her than she’s willing to give. While she wears the shortest skirts imaginable and presents her cleavage to the world as though there will never be a finer feast, at twenty-one years old, Eddie is a virgin and doesn’t plan on losing her virginity any time soon. She’s saving it for that someone special. While her sister is a romantic at heart and falls in love at the drop of a hat, Eddie is exceptionally wary of those she puts her trust (and heart) into. Trust is earned, respect even more so, and though she carries herself a certain way, she doesn’t believe she deserves any less respect than her sister, who would rather spread her legs for the first person to look her way than someone she truly cares about. Where Maddox’s sexuality is fluid, Eddie is straight and doesn’t have any interest in heading attractions elsewhere. She’s currently Junior in college, more than ready to head into her Senior year and finish out her four year college career. What free time Eddie does have is spent as a TA for her English professor and working part-time at a local grocery store to put some extra money in her pocket.
