BLONDIE WHY WAS THAT PAUSE SO LONG 💀

[prettybaby-reid]

Criminal Minds topics I could write an essay about:

-Haley is over-hated and many of the things people used to justify disliking her are reaches and actually don’t mean anything in actuality. you can simply just not like her character, but acting like you have real “moral” justification is just delusional atp.

- in 4x22/5x01 when Foyet attacks Hotch in his apartment, it’s 100% s/a in some form. whether it’s in the traditional sense or not, Foyet clearly intends for it to have the same effect on Hotch.

-Yes Elle was valid to a certain extent for shooting the rapist in her second to last appearance, it was 100% not the same thing as Hotch murdering Foyet in episode 100.

-Spencer is highly baby-ified by the fandom and it’s insufferable to watch the way people treat other characters for offhanded teases they make at him.

-Jj wasn’t wrong for not telling Spencer that Emily was alive. Jj was wrong for continuously letting Spencer come over for 10 weeks to cry about it, knowing that Emily was alive and she was playing fucking scrabble with her. She could have easily said she wasn’t able to handle everything and let him go to morgan/garcia.

-The writers of criminal minds know how to write episodes and plotlines, but they don’t know how to write consistent character ideas and backstories. they also don’t know how to properly write characters trauma. immediately after Jj is kidnapped, they’re all in a bar together…that doesn’t make sense. she should be in a hospital or at home, not keke-ing with the homies.

-Although the writers are inconsistent with backstories, some of the things people think “don’t add up” actually do add up if you thought for longer than 5 seconds.

-the Cat Adams plotline and Cat as a character is so good until Reids prison arc when they say that Cat had the other girl s/a him, that’s so out of bounds for her. She hates men for what they do to women, specifically the violence men perpetrate towards women, more specifically s/a and domestic violence…why would she s/a Spencer.

-On the topic of the Cat/Spencer s/a topic…that’s definitely a pullover from the fact that it was supposed to be Hotch who was in prison but they had to switch it after Thomas Gibson left. I have an idea of what it could have originally been considering it was supposed to be Hotch/Mr. Scratch, but no solid proof.

Masterlist Part II

Masterlist Part III

[sevensoulmates]

Thinking again of Buck as the person who empowers Eddie. The one who hears that there's a Certain Way to do something, and instead looks at it from another perspective and encourages Eddie to try Another Way.

Like in 3x12 Fools, where Ana says Chris should learn to pivot and do something else when he reaches a barrier and instead Buck said, well, hey, maybe we could try to fulfill Chris's desires in an accessible way instead of telling him to just pick something else. Buck showing Eddie this allows Eddie to once again provide his son with a joyous and fulfilling life.

In 2x04 Stuck, when instead of thinking "huh, maybe I can set Eddie up on a date with a woman and then SHE can take care of Chris while Eddie works and he can have a gf at the same time" decides he can introduce Eddie to someone who can help him navigate his situation, advise and point him in the right direction, watch Chris and be a series-long supporter and empowering Eddie to be the person he wants to be which is a present and active father to Chris.

In 5x01 Panic, Buck discovers Eddie's panic attacks and learns the reason, and instead of just being a generally supportive friend and saying "who knows, maybe you just need more time and your relationship with Ana will deepen" he says if you don't want to be with her, you can't stick it out, that's not fair to Ana or Eddie. He gives Eddie permission to give up, without judgement, to let go of An Expectation that he's been told he should have/do/be, when it isn't actually bringing happiness to his life but is actively bringing him pain.

In 5x14 Dumb Luck, when Eddie is arguably at the lowest we've ever seen him, instead of letting Eddie wallow and continue his downward spiral of believing that nothing he does to save anybody will ever be worth it in the end, Buck shows him a different perspective, of how saving people is worth it because sometimes you are the one thing that sets their life on a better path.

Something about how Buck has always represented the Unconventional and Alternate and Illuminating and Better path for Eddie, the path that brings relief, the path that brings support, the path that brings trust, the path that reveals truth, the path that brings empowerment, the path that brings partnership.

And you're gonna sit here and tell me that Eddie belongs with some rando? Nuh uh. Until the show provides me one (1) fucking example of a person who can be everything for Eddie that I just encapsulated, I'm never not believing that Eddie belongs 100% with Buck. Fight me.

[thesassywitchofthenortheast]

Omg I’m watching 5x01 and I’m at the scene in Vegas where Lucy and Angela are talking about protecting Tamara.

And I find it 100% hysterical and so telling that no one that to send protective detail to Chris… Lucy’s boyfriend…

Like everyone just forgot about him being a potential target 😂 not one person thought he meant enough to Lucy for them to protect him??

I’m dying over that fact

[adhd-merlin]

please share your arwen headcanons <3 can't stop thinking about arthur giving his queen everything she deserves. making everyone see what he sees

okay an arwen ask!! thank you!! I don't have many headcanons in general but here's some thoughts:

both virgin until marriage you won't convince me otherwise!!

they joked about merlin's crossdressing "habit" at least once. they both believe it's a thing merlin does I can't believe it never comes up at some point

that time they spent trying to keep their relationship a secret while uther was still alive? yeah they sucked at it. camelot's worst kept secret. everyone in the castle but uther knew

merlin being their super stressed-out wedding planner because everything needs to be perfect for their big day is canon to me. that man is not chill about ceremonies and is not chill about the two of them getting together you can imagine what kind of state he would be in

after arthur forgives gwen for "cheating" on him they never talk about lancelot again :(

they struggle to keep their eyes and hands off each other in public after getting married. nothing indecent, like. holding hands under the table at council meetings and missing 75% of what's being said. imagine how they were in S5 but ten times worse.

it's canon that they both care about camelot and her people and that's something they both admire about the other. I think gwen as queen would be loved by the people and it would make arthur love her even more

they talk about their future children, or at least they do until it becomes clear they might never come. I think arthur would love having a daughter, don't ask me why this is just one of my beliefs

at some point gwen absentmindedly lets slip that she kissed merlin once and arthur is like "haha sure :)" and gwen is like "no arthur I did. for real" after which arthur spends a day sulking and being mean(er) to merlin for no apparent reason

you know that intro to ep 5x01 where merlin is running around like a headless chicken looking for gwen and arthur is like "merlin where is she??" I like to think it's because after all the kidnappings they both panic if she "disappears" and they can't locate her immediately. "oh shit not again. I swear she was here a minute ago"

arthur hates his own birthday but he 100% makes a fuss about gwen's. it's a huge huge celebration

if gwen's dad had been alive when she got engaged, arthur would have done the asking-him-for-his-daughter's-hand thing. even though he was the king. I just think he's that kind of guy.

okay I've been sitting on this ask trying to think of more but I’ve got a headache so I'll stop here. maybe they’ll come to me later

[raayllum]

i'm literally sitting here trying to figure out what EVEN i can SAY about aspec rayllum here? i think about them and i want to combust into heart emojis. i watched the first season when it first came out and then only happened to catch up last year with my qpp, and in between i was like. so infuriated when i found out they'd made rayla and callum a thing bc i - naturally - latched onto the green and purple character as an aroace icon at 18 years old, and my partner was like "no no no no TRUST me you've got to watch it, you'll love it"

they weren't wrong and after bingeing the whole show i'm stuck thinking about rayllum a LOT. they're written so much like my own ideal relationship that i kind of want to explode from it sometimes. anyway, my absolute favorite thing about them is how much emphasis there is about their friendship - to the point that when i watched season four, I can't remember which episode specifically it was number wise but when rayla suggested splitting up and offered to go with callum and he turns her down, my first immediate heartbroken thought was "she misses her best friend..." i just love how they're in love but they're in love cos they're best friends....11/10 no notes i need more relationships like that in media

ANYWAY long rambley ask about my loves aside, my question is what are some of your favorite moments where rayllum are so clearly best friends/goofballs in love?

No like honest to god though — me and the Rayla to my Callum are also in a QPR + dash of romance relationship and like... arc 1 and arc 2 Rayllum are just so goddamn sweet??

I don't agree generally that arc 2 Rayllum is more Mature™ than arc 1 rayllum — Callum is more patient and Rayla is more open, so they've matured as individuals — but merely just that they're different flavours of aspec-ness. Like arc 1 is the craziness and rollercoaster of meeting a stranger and realizing they're Your Person, and arc 2 is the deepness after the fact of "I know you, and I know that we can get through everyone so long as we have each other" mostly cause I think the main reason people label arc 1 Rayllum as more immature is because s3 Rayllum gushes over each other, but that's bc people have a hard time conceptualizing having deep admiration for your partner(s) that isn't infatuation... even though like? It's totally normal and welcome, like any long term relationship is "my partner is the most amazing person ever and i'm also very aware of all their flaws simultaneously" and like, arc 1 Rayllum hits that balance perfectly imo

I just love all of their stages and sides to them so so much

But yeah! Some of my fave moments Rayllum wise for the Best Friends quality has to be when they help each other up in 3x05 (Callum after the soulfang chase and Rayla on the ambler) because things are Weird but they're still always going to help each other? The "I missed my best friend" quality in s4 with no one laughing at Callum's jokes / talking about magic with him (vs their first scene in 5x01 being him telling her all about the magic stuff he's reading) and Rayla keeping her disappointment at bay always hits hard and I loove 4x06 when she's beating herself up and he takes care of her because a Good Relationship isn't about how you treat each other when everything's fine, it's 100% about how treat each other when life is hard/stressful and/or you're upset with each other

But I love all the gentle teasing in early S5 and the fist bump lives in my head eternally rent free. The 2x03 hug also means a lot to me cause that was the turning point she went from being a friend to being family and I think in a lot of ways, that's their relationship's most important turning point alongside maybe 1x06 (trusting her anyway!) 4x09 (forgiveness) and 5x04 (her opening up).

5x02 post-inn and stargazing scene are also faves just because of how happy they are talking about Nothing and everything, and like — that's just so fucking real, y'know? When someone makes everything automatically better just by being there

As Callum says, "We've been through a lot, and a lot has changed. Well, some things have changed, but not everything," and this never will

SCREAMING AT THIS TRANSITIONNNNNNNNN

[im-some-lionheart]

5x01. Two minutes in and already the words "we need to find Cas" are coming out of Dean's mouth

do you realize how insane that is????

the man was just magically teleported to an airplane (the thing that he's fucking terrified of), when seconds before he was about to see Lucifer walk the earth. He's 100% the apocalypse just started. And the first thing he does (after they land and find a car and get going) is turn to his brother and tell him,

idk how tf we got out of that... But "we need to find Cas"

We talk a lot about Purgatory "where's the angel" but I don't think we recognize enough just how much Dean's instinct to find Cas has always been there.
