eliza dushku’s inability to be able to play characters that can be considered straight fascinates me

So maybe I couln't save you. Maybe, just maybe... this is your way of saving me.

Tru Calling 1x9 Murder at the Morgue (2004)/ Haven 3x9 Sarah (2012)

[oveliagirlhaditright]

There's a Buffy the Vampire Slayer AU novel series, where Giles gets turned into a vampire and imprisons Buffy because he, of course, realizes that's the best way to deal with the Slayer: if you kill her, another one will be Called and then you'll have to find and deal with this new Slayer. But if you keep the Slayer imprisoned, she's no threat and the White Hats have no ace up their sleeves.

And in Tru Calling (that stars Eliza Dushku, that many Buffy fans like to headcanon as a life Faith is eventually reincarnated into), Jack tries to imprison Tru (and almost succeeds), so she'll rot in jail and the Calling (her power) won't pass to someone else until she dies of old age there (because before, they'd made the mistake of killing Tru's mom--who had had the Calling before her--and the power just passed onto Tru).

[masterofbiography]

A l'âge de 12 ans, Tru est témoin du meurtre de sa mère, et garde des émotions obsédantes, notamment une culpabilité constante de ne rien avoir pu faire pour la sauver. Dix ans après, Tru essaye en vain de conserver une forme de famille. En tant qu'enfant du milieu, elle se doit de surveiller constamment son jeune frère, Harrison, qui se met régulièrement dans des situations louches où l'argent entre toujours en jeu, ainsi que sa trop ambitieuse grande soeur Meredith, qui se drogue. Tru essaye de réaliser ses propres ambitions professionnelles en s'inscrivant à l'école de médecine mais son stage est annulé pour des raisons budgétaires, et elle est obligée de travailler à la morgue de la ville. Ce job, et le fait qu'elle soit assignée au "service de nuit" lui déplaisent, pourtant Tru donne le meilleur d'elle-même sans savoir que ce premier stage va modifier sa vie à jamais. Tru finit par découvrir qu'elle n'est pas comme les autres. Lorsqu'une personne meurt, mais qu'elle n'aurait pas du, elle se réveille en demandant de l'aide, provoquant un retour en arrière de 24 heures dans la vie de la jeune Davies. Elle doit recommencer à zéro, mais cette fois, en sauvant la personne qui lui a demandé de l'aide. Seul son patron de la morgue est au courant de ce don et l'aide d'ailleurs dans ses enquêtes pour retrouver les personnes qu'elle doit sauver. Elle finit par mettre son frère au courant, mais, naturellement, ce dernier s'en amuse plus qu'autre chose. Finalement, la jeune fille sera constamment en lutte afin de comprendre ce don unique qu'on lui a donné tout en essayant de l'équilibrer avec son désir de vivre la vie normale d'une femme de 22 ans. Son intuition et son ingéniosité seront mis à l'épreuve et elle devra faire de précieux sacrifices dans sa propre vie pour sauver celle des autres. Sacrifices souvent très durs, voire même déchirants. Surtout le jour où la mort décide de lui prendre son frère. Mais Tru n'est pas décidée à la laisser faire et elle sauvera son frére de l'au-delà. Mais le jour suivant, qu'elle revit, le cours des choses étant modifié, la mort doit prendre le vie de quelqu'un d'autre. C'est alors que le grand amour de Tru disparaît tragiquement. Effondrée mais encore plus déterminée à déjouer les plans de la Mort, Tru va se battre pour venger la mort de Luc… En revanche, bien qu'elle soit celle qui doit sauver des vies, il y a son opposé. Lui-même revit les journées au même moment que Tru avec pour mission, de faire en sorte que la personne meurt et que Tru Davies échoue. La brune ne le sait pas encore, mais sa mère avait le même don qu'elle, tandis que son père, avait par le passé, le même don que son rival. L'un ou l'autre doit gagner.

I am not so slowly becoming a big fan of Aussie Open and I attribute it almost entirely to your Mark Davis posting - both a gift and a curse you have bestowed upon me!

Tru Davies (Eliza Dushku) Tru Calling 1x9 Murder at the Morgue (2004)

[skretnica2]

oc introduction—bruce jett

some basic info

his parents had a messy divorce, and his mom didn't want to see him so he had no other choice but to live with his dad

his father is a former military man, bruce was raised around a harsh concept of masculinity

he became a bully to "desensitize" himself for the future when he joins the army and has to torture enemies (said by himself) in reality he just wants to prove himself to his parents that he's not useless

he seems scary and obsessed with violence—lowkey tru—but mostly hes just dumb and sleazy

it's not too hard to get into his good side, hes got a strong sense of loyalty

no matter how badly his dad treats him he will never speak or think ill of him

used to have something serious going on with kasia but was afraid to make it official

he actually loved kasia but "feelings are for girls"

his nose is kinda fucked up from a fight

has a big fat crush on pinky

doesn't pick on girls, his father taught him so. he does flirt with them a lot but hes not that lucky

he also flirts with guys but his way of flirting with them is fighting

hes on the wrestling team and is pretty cool with juri, doesn't rly feel anything towards other jocks

likes playing bass, one of his frustrated dreams is to have a garage band

davis introduced him to the guys

the 5% greaser respect is cuz he likes tormenting preps out of envy and relates to ricky cuz he also fumbled a girl..and likes shop class

more info on him

about time i gave a proper intro to one of my ocs.. feel free to suggest interactions or whatever😣

[stitchyblogs]

my curse is that i keep falling in love with peacock shows that a) people forgot they have a subscription to, or b) keep getting cancelled- but if you DO have peacock and you want 20+ recs hit a stitchy up, yooooo

NUMBER ONE please watch The Resort. It’s about love and grief and going on a magical realism vacation in the mayan riviera and playing detective on some missing teen’s old ass pre smartphone cell phone 🤳🏼🌴

(definitely serves as a stand alone miniseries, but i’d love more)

Look at this cast and tell me you’re not like “ohh.” THE RESORT. NOW.

2!!!! WE ARE LADY PARTS

a comedy about a British punk rock band named Lady Parts, which consists entirely of Muslim women. One of whom is obsessed with Don McLean, which speaks di-fucking-rectly to teenage stitchy

threeeeee is BRILLIANT MINDS, the medical drama show i would make if you held me hostage. I would say “there are too many doctor shows already!!!” And youd’d say, “make one anyway!!! I have a weapon!!” But this doctor show is Special. It’s based on the work and character of neurologist Oliver Sacks, who i’ve been fascinated by since doing the opera adaption of The Man Who Mistook His Wife For A Hat in college (brag). It’s kinda like if House had old school Quantum Leap levels of empathy and 🏳️‍🌈

gif by @pedro-reed THIS SHOW IS LIKE A HUG. Did i MENTION mandy patinkin cameo that rocked my world??? Btw???!

shuttup i fucking loved the treasure of foggy mountain. Its number 4. i said what i said

FIVE! Speaking of films on peacock, you know Conclave is on there right? RIGHT?! It’s the Mean Girls of pope movies. It’s everything to me, a cradle catholic who thinks canon Jesus was pretty lit, its the fandom I can’t gel with. And Ralph Fiennes has to care for his dead boss’s army of turtles need i say more

Okay back to tv series… MR MERCEDES! It’s stephen king doing some hardboiled detective shit that only baaaarely steps out of reality. Like. One toe. One and a half. Shout out to all my Brendan Gleeson fuckers, i know you’re out there.

Everyone else… You might not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.

are we on 7? We’re on 7. It’s MRS DAVIS. Betty Gilpin is a nun raised by shady Las Vegas magicians who is Hot For Jesus and on a mission to destroy Artificial Intelligence and her mommy issues. My flabbers were gasted by this perfection.

(Complete narrative btw!)

EIGHT. Do you love Stephanie Hsu??? Do you enjoy Nahnatchka Khan’s other work? Check out LAID. A sex comedy that is very preposterous and if we do not get a s2 I will be haunted forever. my Number 1 nepo baby Zosia Mamet is also here and she is not playing around

NINE is a total left field premise. Claudia O’Doherty and Craig Robinson go into business hunting exotic pythons for cash. This might be the peak hustle culture show about a Tenuous Job. I have never touched a snake in my life and i’m gripping my guts from laughing like “so tru bestie!!”

TEN is a P.S.A. Friends, i need you to know Peacock has some golden oldies. Is Little House On The Prairie your show when you’re sick on the couch? Did you dad raise you on old Quantum Leap? Have you been meaning to meet my best friend Mr. Detective Columbo!? They are HERE!

awoooo!! 11 is WOLF LIKE ME. Josh Gad is an american dad living in australia for some illusive reason… idk… anyway his daughter has a serious anxiety disorder he is carefully managing, and uhhhhh guess what his new girlfriend Isla Fisher is a werewolf. LET GIRLS BE MONSTERS.

Uhm i think I’m gonna have to stop here and re blog to add more. Too many images! 😅
