Look, I know you can take care of yourself. I just really don't want anything happening to you, especially now.

Well... I guess I'll be writing a fix-it fic at some point...

[i-hate-everything-except-fandoms]

You know, I really wish they'd had the balls to kill Lewis when he got shot by the hired gun (although I am glad they at least thought to give him further protection).

Would've put things into a bit more perspective for Magnum about just how far he was willing to go to get answers. Also makes narrative sense in regards to his decision to hand the guy over to the US Marshall rather than kill him, as his actions would've already cost one life that day, rather than just relying on the fact that he's a good guy.

Feels like they're playing it a little too safe - this shit was bound to get messy.

[disappearinginq]

I really wish I could be convinced that more people would be interested in non-ship stuff for fandoms I'm in.

Look, we all know we write for ourselves. I get it. I do. But my desire (ability) to finish things is hinged on feedback. My two longest fics that I wrote the fastest were because of audience engagement. And because I knew I had people I respected and liked reading, and I wanted them to enjoy the read, I wrote better.

Now I feel like I'm just stuck in No Man's Land of fandom, and while I have like a dozen things half finished, they never seem to actually BE finished because if the audience is me, then I know how it ends. There's not much point writing it down.

So this is basically my To Do List.

The Rookie - I just don't care about what 90% of the fandom cares about

1. Series of one shots that establish Angela and Tim's BFF status that may or may not lean Tim aspec because I'm me.

2. Pre series flashbacks to Tim in his time in service when he survives an airstrike that kills two of his friends and almost kills him.

3. Trauma Tim post season 6, because in rapid succession, he loses his job on metro, he witnesses his old team die in a way eerily similar to the way he was almost killed in the airstrike, had a friend commit suicide in front of him after confessing to being dirty, gets accused of being dirty himself, and is again almost killed in close quarter combat (among other things that will remain unmentioned here)

Slow Horses

1. Do not ask me why but I love the idea that Lamb potentially met River was he was a kid because he had to work closely with David Cartwright and River is always where he's not supposed to be

2. River goes missing, and for once, not his fault. Lamb has to come to terms that just because he pretends not to care, doesn't mean anyone buys it

3. Post season 4, somebody finds out that River is the last remaining son of Frank's assassin cult, and it goes about as well as can be expected. I fully intend to have Lamb use this line: "trying to detain you is like trying to nail jello to a tree".

Magnum PI (yes, I still work on these)

1. Finish Wrong Side. I actually have like another 10-15k words on it, but it's not in order or complete scenes, but it does include Thomas’s recovery and discovery that Hannah is the one who sold them out

2. I have like 6 other chapters to Bad Things Happen that I half wrote but then retired the card

3. Crossover with MacGyver because I thought Mac could use some down time in Hawaii after season 4 and the last half of season 3

Tracker 1. Colter goes missing during one of his cases, and I borrow heavily from an episode of Lethal Weapon wherein Colter will be held hostage in an illegal drug trial that he stumbled into and now finds himself an unwilling participant, and I drag Russell into it because that is how big brothers work

Hudson & Rex - honestly, I have the most written for this fandom, even though the fandom itself is pretty quiet, but it's most of a bingo card 1. Finish Oh The Weather Outside is Frightful because damn son it's been years

2. In no particular order, I have Bad Things Happen Bingo It's Not My Blood, Stitches, Caught in a Snare, Falls Through the Ice and three others that fit other prompts - a boating accident, Charlie finally finds himself at the bottom of a well (sort of) and completes his "Timmy and Lassie Scenario" bingo card, and where Charlie realizes he's developed claustrophobia after having a mine collapse on him, being locked in a freezer storage, almost crushed by a shipping container, buried alive, etc and gets stuck in an elevator with Jesse

Magnum PI - S05E11 - Hit and Run review

We're back. I guess. It feels strange knowing these are the last ten episodes it seems likely we're getting but judging from just this first one it's going to keep on being one heck of a ride at least for that :P

(Full honestly, something is wrong with my internet so I watched this with like 1 million little lags and annoying loading bits so... may have affected my viewer enjoyment. Also gotta go to bed because I gotta work tomorrow so this is a little short and 5% spell checked...)

Miggy

Wham-bam, thank you, ma'am. It would have been more shocking if we hadn't gotten the "I'm late in the promo" but still, it was fun to explore this for an episode. They didn't touch back on what Juliet said about not being sure if she wanted a baby or not, but from how the discussion went today she seemed to have changed her tune. Would have been good to have addressed. I thought the would with Magnum being incredibly award when she told him. (This was low-key a favorite part of mine because not knowing what to say Magnum is pretty rare.)

Loved that they're keeping the Miggy banter and Thomas Magnum logic going strong even with big life-changing-ish news looming on the horizon.

"Yeah but if you are pregnant you will be more pregnant tomorrow."

"Just like how you said you weren't scared of spiders?"

I think this was a big set-up for how the series is going to end. Which I think is going to be very Mentalist and we kind of needed to have them talk about and want a baby, even if not right now. (Seriously, if the show doesn't end with a Miggy wedding and baby on board I'm going to be annoyed.)

So yeah, I'm glad they had the baby talk and that it leads to Confessions! (have I been watching too much K-drama? Maybe. Yes.)

And is it weird that I cried there with them being all "I love you" at the end? Like I thought, kind of that I'd gone through my mourning process for this both with thinking season 4 was the end and during the past few months knowing season 5b is the last. But apparently, I was wrong. I still have tears left.

Watching this episode just kind of made me realize how much I love this show (all over again) and that I'm going to miss it and my babies sooo much.

TC being sad = sadness

It's was kind of hard to watch our favorite guy going through tough stuff. I feel like the *protect TC at all cost* society will sue someone :P no but I was really thankful things seem to be going in the right direction for him both with emotionally dealing and getting some feeling back!

Rick + Piper...

So Rick's got a new GF? I feel like she gotta have some connection to something bigger. Like she's for sure a spy or something right? Wasn't her being all "that dump never" just too great of a start? I mean Rick is cute and all, but just introducing her as a love interest would be a little frivolous? Though they have done that before with Ethan and Lia.

Anyway, Piper is cute and I can't wait to see what happens with it.

The Case!

I really liked this case, even if it the excitement was somewhat lost because my internet kept lagging. It's pretty classic "hitman decides to save victim" only with a Magnum and Higgins twist. It could have gone a lot of different ways and in a way it felt a little too quick for it to end. (I think this might be another K-drama symptom where most things just keep going throughout the season.) I was hoping/thinking when I heard "boarding school, sick mom" that we'd get a Juliet/kid bonding moment.

I would have liked Mr. Hitman to not have died so unceremoniously. I mean this poor kid, her mom is dead, her dad is dead, her brother just tried to kill her with 2 hitmen and now the guy who saved her (even if he was a hitman to start) dies? I mean come on! Couldn't he have gotten caught and she'd be like "I'll come visit you in jail" or something?

The Jin + Book

Are we going to get more flashbacks of Jin imagining the White Knight with superpowers? Because that was so weirdly hilarious. I was like? What? What? WHAT? Then I totally cracked up.

But yeah, hope we have something more with the TR Bell + White Knight. That kiss back from early season 4 is still one of my faves of theirs (even if it wasn't actually 'them'.)

Next week seems fun! Like, repo a fish? What a strange world, but it sure going to be amusing.

Lonely is a Jake without...

@vicarious-rebel and I were silly earlier today (Imagine that!) and decided to share some of it with the world.

It all started with me declaring that a mustache does not suit Gael García Bernal and he should get rid of it now. Vi's text is black. Mine is blue.

My unsolicited opinion: lose the mustache, Gael. Beard, stubble, or clean-shaven, plz.

and yeah I'm not a fan of the stache on him either

The stache must go! Let Jake have it

Jake, wistfully: moustache

If I could draw stuff straight out of my head, I'd draw Jake in various settings wistfully saying or thinking "Mustache."

some settings:

watching Magnum PI

seeing something with a mustache-twirling bad guy

just before Steven or Marc shave

I hope they give Jake a solid month of mustache. He deserves it.

give him the Stache. He deserves it.

Stachetember

I have no idea what that gif is from, but it's funny.

Sorry it was just a random question of mine I like medical shows as well just not Grey's it's not about length for me but the quality Shonda isn't the best writer imo. Oh I found you from your Magnum PI gifs! Love the Magnum and Higgy relationship appreciate you being the main one to gif them.

haha no worries! well yeah i haven't really watched any shonda show and enjoyed it. the most i've watched is scandal, and i even had to quit that because that was kinda fucked up LMAO.

some that i enjoyed were code black (but like, ignoring the rob lowe season bc ew), royal pains....... if that counts..?, the night shift, and transplant.

though to be honest i watched 2 of these bc i had a crush on jill flint (she hates me rly), one of them bc i had a crush on meagan good and then proceeded to crush on melanie chandra, and then transplant was recommended by a friend and yeah.

the moral of the story is that i watch things for pretty girls and not for plot.

and thank u sm i appreciate it <3 it means a lot since i feel like on tumblr i'm just kinda here by myself screaming into the void about them omg lol

JAY ALI as Dr. Ethan Shah Magnum P.I. (2018) Season 3 Episode 10: "The Long Way Home"

[redgoldblue]

see the thing is. the thing is, H50 never successfully queerbaited me while it was still running, right, because I never thought they’d actually do it. They queerbaited me in the sense that I am a queer who was baited into watching other queers, but I also knew that PLenkov & CBS would never actually let McDanno go canon, so I wasn’t technically queerbaited. While it was running. However, now that it’s over....... 

the Lenkoverse shows are canonically closely linked, right? Jerry was a major character for an ep of MacGyver last season, Kamekona and Noelani are regular guest stars on Magnum. so what if.  what if one of those shows made it canon. they don’t even need Scott or Alex to do it they just need someone who regularly interacts with/is part of Five-0. Hell, Magnum could do it with Kamekona or Noelani. Like, Magnum rolls up to Kamekona’s truck to ask him for something, and in the middle of convo asks, “Hey, is Commander McGarrett back from his trip yet?”, and Kame gestures to one of the tables and goes “yeah, I had to watch him and his man smooching over there the other day. Don’t know how Junior stands living with ‘em, I don’t.” 

Magnum’s like “....smooching?” 

Kame just stares at him until he nods and goes “Yeah, okay, smooching. Anyway.” Like. throwaway lines. That’s subtle enough to get past the CBS censors! PLenkov no longer has any creative control! It could happen. It’s not going to happen, but it could. H50 is my own personal Supernatural, haunting me from beyond the grave.
