Also finished final season of Enterprise.
As for the last episode, personally, I don't hate it, but it's very VERY underwhelming.
You can tell it got cancelled in the middle of filming and were told they can have 1 final episode to wrap things up and it just didn't work.
Oh well...

Uh oh, I got reminded TFGraves exist and I'm mentally ill and going to make it YOUR problem!! (Translation: I'm going to gosh about them)
They just mean so much to me? And they just feel soo?? Special?? And unique on a meta level as well? It's already one thing that they are a canonised mlm pairing because historically those ones tend to be more controversial because it tends to make cishet dudes (aka leagues main demographic) more uncomfortable because cant fetishise it (also yes they're not Technically "together" but idc its explicitly canon they have feelings for eachother). It's another that both are surprisingly developed and nuanced charaters (could go on for hours about how theyre both self destructive and have abandonment issues and repress their feelings in very different ways) that are morally ambiguous and have a complex and multifaceted relationship with eachother and yeah i know league lore is subject to retcons and having differet writers but idk. i think its impressive we got two nuanced developed queer male characters WITH A COMPLICATED AND DEVELOPED RELATIONSHIP WITH EACHOTHER in a game known for its bigotted player base. Another thing i fucking love about this ship is how the riot writers were like "what if we subverted some tropes and made the more flamboyant one implied pan and we made the traditionally masculine one, who highkey has toxic masculinity, gay". BUT ALSO HIS TOXIC MASCULINITY HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH HIS QUEERNESS. like yes he cant express his feelings directly to save his life but the fact he's a gay man is completely not relevant to that and he's canonically had a bunch of ex boyfriends and is canonically a monsterfucker/hj. I'm not over how they took a pretty cishet masculine thing and made queer. Like the rough outlaw who hates talking about his feelings and is out for violent revenge on those who've wronged him..... except the guy who's "wronged" him is actually his best friend who he has mutual feelings for and also he fucks men. IDK THAT MAKES ME HAPPY. im insane.
moving on to other thing i like about them is that the sheer range this ship has??? Like yes there's gut wrenching fucked up dynamic that drives you crazy as you pyschoanalyse and unpack the layers of all of THAT. "that" being the fact a man thought he got abandoned by his best friend and got tortured and isolated in prison for 10 years and during those 10 years the only thing that kept him from killing himself was the sheer rage and want for vengence (towards someone he probably had repressed romantic feelings for) AND THEN WHEN HE GOT THE CHANCE TO KILL HIM, HE COULDNT BRING HIMSELF TO DO IT 💀 (im literally never going to be normal about that) and during those 10 years the other man actually got all of their mutual friends killed in an attempt to save him and the survivors guilt fucked him up so bad its implied he failed trying to drown himself so he changed his entire name and personhood instead to isolate himself from the soul crushing guilt of it. BUT DESPITE THAT ANGST, there's a surprising amount of domesticity and comfort with this ship??? No like you'd think these two would be friends to enemies to lovers BUT NO, theyre actually friends to enemies to friends to friends who are fucking pinning for eachother like crazy. Despite the angsty dynamic these two also have the best friends who have known eachother for ages and who everyone think is dating but both are oblivious or dont believe the other feels the same BUT THEY ALSO HAVE opposites attract bickering marriage couple who constantly tease and banter with eachother. like the range is crazy
No but I feel like something that makes me emotional about this is that they tried to kill eachother and badly hurt eachother unintentionally but like, instead of being homophobic about it and making them just hate eachother forever and never reconcicle (which like those ships are amazing and valid and also thats literally another league ship/hj), the writers made them make up???? AND LIKE? HEAL? KINDA? Like no they havent worked through everything and no neither of them like talking about their feelings but they're "partners" again and they have this really domestic understanding of eachother and theyre managing and theyre bantering like they used to and theyre literally so comfortable around eachother and look, graves isnt tormented by his time in prison as much anymore and hes just a genuinely goofy criminal dumbass who robs people and cracks jokes that irriate his partner AND IDK ITS SO DOMESTIC AND FUNNY? BUT IT DOESNT FEEL OUT OF CHARACTER. THESE TWO JUST ARE IN A GOOD PLACE DESPITE EVERYTHING AND IDK THAT MAKES ME HAPPY???? why did league of legends make compelling queer ship
#BURNING TIDES YOU WILL ALWAYS BE FAMOUS TO ME. also fuck riot games forever. love the writers though. ill admit i lost interest after#they discontinued riot forge :/ i love tfgraves so much they both deserve to be in a better ip but im just glad we even got them at all#DEFINITELY THINGS TO CRITICISE ABOUT RIOT AND ITS REP BUT IM JUST HAPPY WE EVEN GOT ANYTHING I GUESS?#tfgraves#twisted fate#malcolm graves#tobias felix#league of legends posting#lol#txt#cw mentions of suicidal ideation#cw suicide

low key i feel like not having percy and annabeth as part of the seven would have made it a lot more interesting like have leo, piper, hazel, ect still there but use percy & annabeth as more mentors and just switch them out with like nico or malcolm or something idk it just would have made it more interesting ig? like I know why they're there but having new demigods or ones we haven't seen a lot would have made it more interesting/unexpected
#pjo hoo toa#pjo#heroes of olympus#the seven pjo#piper mclean#frank zhang#jason grace#leo valdez#annabeth chase#hazel levesque#percy jackson#like#idk it just seems cool#more interesting??#love them#but still#weve seen them so much#plus the idea of like malcom or some random hermes kid get chosen just seems funny#'you sure you dont mean annabeth?'#'no you'#'oh...okay' - malcolm pace#i just love malcolm

Oh. The Leandra conversation at the end of Legacy is very good when she's alive. I know Varric was trying to provide closure with his version, but I like this even better.
I wonder how different it is if Carver & Bethany are alive?
#dragon age#dragon age 2#simon hawke#them bonding over how little they really new malcolm is very interesting#and how different they feel about lufe on the run v life now#i think this gives simon more closure than varric's ghost version ever could#welp. time to do all that remains now.#sorry simon.

Hi! Not to bother you about this topic BC I know you've talked about it a lot but...
John Watkins saying that Martin was planning to kill Malcolm on the camping trip is a total lie. HOWEVER i don't think Watkins knew it was a lie. He was Martin's apprentice, I think Martin used him as an apprentice and once it was successful, planned to kill him off and begin training Malcolm instead. His plan was to have Watkins be Malcolm's first victim.
I think you are completely correct ... like why allow malcolm to have a knife which he could possibly use to defend himself if the plan the whole time was to kill him??? it makes so much more sense that the plan was for john to die and martin just told him everything about killing malcolm so he wouldn't be suspicious. wish the camping trip plot line wasn't completely forgotten about by season 2 😭
#also interesting how martin only confessed to trying to kill malcolm when he wanted malcolm and jessica to be specifically#angry at him so he could get malcolm to stab him with the ice pick....#makes u think!#and it's never a bother i love talking about this show!#gingerduckling#answered

liking prodigal son is so hard sometimes. cause i wanna watch the show but every episode is heavy in at least some regard. like i just wanna have a silly goofy time and relax, not be worried about malcolm as he falls out a window. again.
why do they always have to be putting malcolm in situations? why can't we have a beach episode.?
#i have friends who have special interests on rom coms and honestly. i'm jealous sometimes#same with my friends with hyperfixations on kids shows#but no. i get stuck with this criminal minds stranger things and the witcher#let malcolm be happy so i can be at peace#personal

The Thawne family really has such continual issues with love (romantic and familial)/that when it comes to love they continually face issues. It's almost like they're cursed in some way .
A lack of familial love is an issue seen with three Thawnes: Malcom (Cobalt Blue), Eobard (Professor Zoom), and Thad (Inertia). All three of them felt unloved and unappreciated by their own family. And these are three Thawnes of three completely different eras. (Malcolm - 20th/21st Century, Eobard - 25th Century, Thad - 30th/31st Century).
Familial relationships and familial love in the Thawne family also tends to be complicated when you look at Meloni and her relationship with her father, President Thaddeus Thawne. There's clearly a controlling aspect to President Thawne's relationship with his daughter, but it also seems like he does love his daughter.
Also Meloni's relationship with her son, Bart, is also complicated. There's not a lack of love between them as a mother and son, but at the same time the two barely know each other/their complicated situation doesn't exactly allow for them to really have an opportunity to develop their relationship with one another.
Eobard's relationship with his family is bad (he's viewed as a disappointment). He also makes it so his brother Robern never existed.
Romantic relationships/Romantic love for Thawnes don't end up well either considering how Meloni's husband ends up killed. And that in part is due to the fact she fell in love with and Allen.
It might have been a first love/first relationship for Bart, but Carol ending up having to stay in the future after Bart fully realizes his feelings for her is another example of romantic relationship/romantic love not working out for a Thawne.
The same version of Eobard also falls in love, but continual even as he rewrites his life and the life of the women he falls in love with (She starts out with a fiance, Eobard then makes it so her fiance has disappeared, she still doesn't want him, he makes it so she never dated him, she still doesn't want him, he makes it so she has never dated in her entire lief to the point it's like she's cursed (that's the actual word used there), and she still has no interest in him), and he ends rewriting his life to the point he narrates that he has never been in love.
Also to a lesser degree Thad ends up abandoning his first girlfriend and first relationship ever, so chalk up another one to love being complicated for the Thawnes.
There are just so many instances of love not working out for Thawnes. Romantic love and familial love is so complicated and messy for them.
#thawne family#thad thawne#meloni thawne#bart allen#eobard thawne#malcolm thawne#president thawne#thaddeus thawne#Me: It's so interesting when you look at them all.#Thawnes and the theme of love#There's SOMETHING here i think#Hmmmm no full thoughts just a pattern here.#Me: This family is MESSED UP. It's so FASCINATING.#Why are they like this -shakes this whole family tree-#ooc#robern thawne

I love Malcolm Hawke's first dialogue in Legacy (the one you get if you unbind the shade kept trapped by two seals in a little cell). clearly this whole business was the darkest shittiest time of his life and he's selling his soul and betraying every single one of his principles and everything, but he sounds so endearingly... snippy and exasperated about the wardens using demons willy nilly. the "listen I know I'm up to some shady stuff here and everything but let it not be said I was untidy. I'm fixing your shit as far as I'm able here. you will not be able to pin this one on me. these demons were here before I arrived, this is on the record now" energy. the way he's taking time out of his day to be responsible and enforce mage OSHA regulations in the middle of maybe the most hilariously irresponsible thing anyone's ever done after the magisters tried to break into the golden city. exquisite. the real Hawke family curse is having to specify that actually not all of the catastrophe was your fault okay this is at least like... 30% not on me this time. I. I tried. everything was on fire and I had a children's toy bucket and a bottle of rum on hand
#I've never played Legacy (or Mark of the Assassin) before so I'm having a ball lol#I love snarky!hawke in MotA in that he's such a callous asshole in a very specific and endearing way#it's the *shrug* all of my friends are crazy and most of them are killers what do you want from me here blaséness that does me in#bitch if you want my genuine emotional engagement you're going to have to do much much wilder than this#that and the hilarity of ignoring the call towards noble action tallis tries to pull on you and going 'no. fuck this' and just leaving#brilliant#dragon age#dragon age 2#I have so many thoughts about malcolm as the ghost who is always hovering over the narrative#especially since it's very much implied your hawke takes after him no matter which personality type you chose#(right down to sharing a voice actor with male hawke -- do you think the twins look over at their brother and almost think#that it's their dad for a moment sometimes? I have feelings and thoughts all over the place)#a ghost varric has only ever met through the reflection he left behind in his children and especially hawke#the ghost of a ghost through the story. so interesting

Detention
“Psst.”
Serin ducked her head and ignored the sound, focusing on the essay she was typing instead. Sure, it wasn’t due for another week but… it never hurt to be prepared.
“Pssst.”
She glanced at the clock. Twenty more minutes until she could go. That was good - she had a lot of work to do still on the homecoming parade float. After that she wanted to get a jump on planning prom… Daisy and Ralph had given her some great ideas to work with and she wanted to try to get started on them before she ran out of time.
“Psssst.”
Her shoulders tensed in frustration, but she tried to ignore it. She ran through the checklist for the rest of the week. She had scholarship applications to submit, the homecoming dance to finalize, and she needed to find time to squeeze in marching band practice. On top of that she had a slew of college applications to finalize, but she needed to get a few more things on her resume first. Just to be sure. Then there was-
“Pssssst.”
She whipped in her chair to glare at the boy next to her. “Malcolm Geffen,” she seethed, her chest heaving with breaths labored by anger, “if you don’t quit doing that I’m going to strangle you.”
The boy beside her raised his eyebrows in mock surprise at her outburst. “Come on, love,” he goaded in his infuriatingly fascinating accent, “you know you’d miss me.” His grin was all ego, but the dimples in his cheeks still somehow managed to make it look adorable.
Serin rolled her eyes and turned back to her essay before she did something stupid, like let him talk more just to hear his voice. “I don’t have time for this,” she hissed. “I wouldn’t even be here if it weren’t for you.”
Mal put his hand on his heart and leaned down to offer her his ridiculous puppy eyes, and Serin fought hard to tell herself that it wasn’t working this time. “I’m sorry,” he said penitently. “I didn’t ever think we’d get caught.”
Serin ground her teeth. It was a bad habit. Her sister Naomi - well, technically her stepsister, but their parents had married when they were 6 years old so they’d grown up together as siblings anyway - always got after her for it. But when you spend time with someone like Malcolm Geffen, indulging in bad habits is pretty much the name of the game.
“You didn’t think,” she repeated, whispering harshly. “That might be the truest thing you’ve ever said.”
Mal managed to look hurt, but it only lasted for a moment before his stupid, cocky, charming, infuriating grin was creeping back into place. “I was just trying to have some fun,” he defended himself. “Would it help if I told you that I didn’t realize that we aren’t technically allowed to play music over the school’s PA system?”
“No,” Serin answered immediately. “Because I know that’s a lie. And because when Principal Hood caught me trying to stop you he assumed I was in on it and put me in detention with you. You’re not getting off with some half–cooked excuse this time.”
With one more glare she turned in her seat, refusing to acknowledge him again. When she noticed him open his mouth from the corner of her eye she tersely barked, “Don’t.”
Mal, for once, did the wise thing. He shut his mouth.
Several minutes passed between them in silence. From the corner of her eye Serin could see Mal actually working on something - maybe he’d gotten wise and decided to use this time for homework. She shook her head. Mal getting wise… like that could ever happen.
When the clock showed two minutes until the end of their hour-long detention, Serin packed her things into her bag. She caught Mal’s glance at her as she twisted in her seat… it was clear he wanted to say something. He looked shockingly repentant - even his spiky red hair looked somehow sad and deflated. She turned straight ahead. She didn’t much want to hear anything he had to say at the moment.
Just before she rose from her seat, she felt something brush against her knee. She glanced down to see Mal’s hand, holding out a piece of paper between his first two fingers. When she glanced at him she found him studying the far wall, probably hoping that if he didn’t look at her she’d be willing to take whatever it was he was offering her.
She brusquely snatched the object from his hand.
It was a piece of notebook paper, carefully folded into the shape of a heart. She rolled her eyes to try to disguise the excited thrill that ran down her spine. On one side of the paper were scrawled the words ‘Open me’ in Mal’s hasty handwriting. Serin chewed her lip for a moment, debating whether or not to actually indulge in this childishness. Finally her curiosity won out over her indignation.
She carefully unfolded the paper, keeping track of the lines in case she decided to fold it back into shape afterward. Inside the paper was just one word. It was neater than his usual handwriting, and she could see the outline of several erased previous attempts at writing it. Just one little word that somehow managed to set the stupid butterflies in her stomach all aflutter once more.
Sorry. In true corny fashion, he had drawn a tiny heart in place of the ‘o’.
Serin glanced over at him. His hands were on the desktop, twitching with nervous energy. He’d never been good at sitting still for very long - that was why he was always getting himself into trouble. On his left index finger was a ring. It was small, and silver, with a tiny heart symbol embedded in the side. It was far too narrow for his finger, resting well above his second knuckle. It was a perfect match for the ring that rested around the base of her own index finger.
She toyed with the silly bracelet on her wrist. It was black, and studded with spikes that looked like they came from a ‘90’s high school movie about a skateboarder. Mal had laughed when he gave it to her - told her that she needed something to offset her ‘goody two–shoes style.’
The girl groaned in frustration. She wanted to be mad at him still. She really did. But she wasn’t. When the vice principal Mrs. Parangosky released them, Mal bolted for the door. Serin took her time, apologizing once more as she left. Parangosky just nodded with a subtle smirk on her lips. Mal was waiting for her in the hall.
“I really am sorry,” he said, rubbing the back of his neck bashfully. “I didn’t mean to get you in trouble.”
“You’re an idiot,” Serin answered. Then, she stood up on her toes and planted a kiss on his cheek.
His smile was back in an instant, warm and dimpled and adorable. Serin tried to ignore the dizzy feeling she got staring at it. “I’m your idiot,” he answered.
She laughed, then pushed hard enough on his chest to knock him back a step. “I have work to do,” she said dismissively. “I need to finish the homecoming float. You don’t get to distract me anymore.” Then she turned and headed for the front entrance.
In a moment Mal was beside her, sliding his hand into hers. “I’ll come with you,” he said with a grin.
Serin ducked her head to hide the blush on her cheeks and entwined her fingers with his.

Ok now I have to work it out —A universe where every Flash and Arrow big bad won— andddddd it ends pretty quickly. Going in chronological order
Malcolm: The Glades are destroyed (irrelevant since he did win)
Slade: The rest of Star city would be destroyed, Felicity would be dead and I believe Oliver would have been as well. But for the sake of the rest; let’s pretend he lets Oliver live so he spends the rest of his life feeling guilty or something.
Ra’s Al Ghul: With Star City destroyed, Sara’s death would go differently but for the sake of this au; let’s say Oliver’s still going to investigate it, Thea’s still used to kill Sara, and Malcolm still uses this to blackmail Oliver; therefore Oliver still fights Ra’s and lives. Rest proceeds about the same; except this version of Oliver is much more susceptible to joining the League and becoming Ra’s Al Ghul. And since Star City’s already destroyed, the virus will be used to take down whatever city Oliver moved to after Slade.
Eobard: Barry gets back too late to stop him from going home, so Eddie’s alive but the singularity still forms and Ronnie dies.
Zoom: The entire multiverse is destroyed aside from Earth-1.
Damien Darhk: Genesis goes along as planned and the entire world is destroyed aside from his Ark.
And that’s the end. Darhk’s ark would be the only thing left standing in the entire universe and recently deceased multiverse. None of the future villains’ plans would come to fruition due to the fact that, well, they’re all dead after Darhk nukes the world. Great work everyone.
#ok but if the League was around and run by Oliver they would absolutely stop Darhk and Genesis which would be a really interesting au/fic#my posts#arrow#the flash#though the Legends are an interesting factor in this— they could probably fix everything. that would indeed be a fun fic concept#malcolm merlyn#slade wilson#ra’s al ghul#eobard thawne#hunter zolomon#damien darhk#cw arrow#cw the flash
