She leaned against Alex, who was sitting next to Anne, and wrinkled up her nose. “You really smell,” Lisa said. “I hate to say it, but you don’t exactly smell like roses yourself,” Alex responded with a wry smile. [Soul Riders: Darkness Falling, Helena Dahlgren, pp. 101]

like, yeah lisa, you smell like manipulation and self-centredness

I JUST WANTED MY CHEEEEEESE

CW: Crucifixion, blood, possible unsettling imagery

I fucking love smiling friends, and wanted to try a hand at more horror aspects of the series (because there’s a shocking amount) but I started with the pilot :)

To note: the reason he has those ropes is because a nailed crucifixion by the palms would not realistically hold someone up. It’d just cut through their hands. So, ropes at the wrists to do most of the lifting seemed appropriate.

I’ll probably do something with The Enchanted Forest next, but if you guys have suggestions let me know!

so did we all have the same reaction when that happened in the lip sync?

i still can't get over colin cutting into penelope and lord debling's dance. do you know how rude and scandalous that is? it's like apocalyptic.

reminds me of that meme "i'm just gonna scooch in right here if you don't mind, shhhhh you can't marry him penelope he's obsessed with penguins"

colin bridgerton, thanks to violet bridgerton, woke up and chose fucking chaos and i'm very thankful.

GABRIEL PLUSHIE CONFIIIIRMEEEEEDDDD FALLS ON KNEEEESSSS

[romantichopelessly]

This paragraph means sm to me btw. First of all, Nicky my love, who we all forget is a collegiate backliner, ready to actively fight his parents. Secondly. Katelyn being notably absent on the day that Andrew testified, probably because it would have made it worse for him if she were there.

"I would like to come back and play with Cesare (laughs). I can always imagine having a little devil Juan on one side and little angel Juan on the other. Just wind him up. I'd love to come back and see some sort of abstraction. I hope that there is some presence of Juan or what he represented. I think it will be interesting to see what the family becomes. Whether it will become much happier or they will find another way to rip themselves apart from the inside." — DAVID OAKES

okay i keep getting to different episodes of the mentalist and going 'omg this is the jibson ep!' 'they're flirting!' 'they care about each other!' 'they stand close together!' 'they hold each other (unfortunately metaphorically) through the red john eps!'

but no. that's not right. 5x12 is the jisbon episode.

okay, it starts in 5x11. jane, after letting lisbon handle volker to her breaking point, KNOWS that she's there. all he has to say is 'lisbon?' and she agrees that she needs help and with the 'mm' and middle distance angry stare we're off to the races.

i have NEVER seen jane more focused and intense (obviously excepting red john) than he is against volker. and it's so clearly not for volker's sake (i mean, this man's whole thing is killing witnesses. he's not particularly interesting, which is how jane likes them). he's furious because lisbon feels guilty and angry and he hates when anyone (but him) puts her through the wringer.

he sits with her to read case files. he puts physical hands on volker. he taunts volker in the bullpen, but he's not doing it for his own pleasure and satisfaction. he's not smiling or smirking. he's doing it for libson. he's angry.

he doesn't go for a complicated con; they catch volker with a straightforward police work plan that ensures they'll have an airtight case. he sprints after her into the zoo, straight into danger at her side. he coaches lisbon along to break some rules but he's very careful not to push her to break rules that will haunt her later.

i just feel like this is the first episode where lisbon takes over in jane's thoughts. he's not there for red john, for his own enjoyment, for anything but lisbon catching her man. he gives himself and his thoughts and ideas over to her. and that's what jane looks like in love.

i wont lie the fact mephone didn't know the true extent of his powers before the finale is Actually Insane to me. That's gotta be a terrifying existential threat in its own right holy FUCK. Imagine waking up one day and in THE SPAN OF THAT SINGLE DAY learning that you CREATED everyone you've ever loved (barring some exceptions) and your own life is a hell YOU made. Literally everything ever can be blamed on you because suddenly YOU are the root cause of everything wrong with everyone. IN THE SPAN OF A DAY this guy went from being an admittedly traumatized Reality T.V show host to JESUS CHRIST to extremely traumatized and wounded (and also out of a job) average robot guy. I THINK ITS SO AMUSING AND ALSO VERY INSANE.

Something something him having nightmares of being a god again, of having all that power, being in a position of such authority and KNOWING IT, and all the things he could do with it. How he'd kill and disrespect and hurt others without a single care in the world because he was untouchable. In another world, maybe he IS just like that, but in this one, the idea now TERRIFIES him. I love (and have talked about before) the idea of mephone specifically avoiding leadership positions and not trying to take on more power then he thinks he's 'worthy' of because he's nervous at the idea of controlling others. And I think it holds really valid when you look at canon. Power imbalance has been the root of all his pain, be it cobs or himself. And that. Agh. Ough. Ouch. This guy. This GUY... -2G anon (I missed this blog, it's nice to be back!!!!)
