The most important thing about characterization of the Doctor is that they simultaneously be an awe-inspiring ancient eldritch of incomprehensible intellect and power, and also the biggest dork you have ever met.
They walk in eternity, they're made of fire and ice and forever, and it is so embarrassing to be seen with them in public.
Shout out to all the Black ppl that can no longer participate directly in the fandom they love because of the stresses of racism đđž you contain multitudes of value and I'm sorry that the color of your skin and the power of your voice makes people not want to acknowledge that.
For the sake of my sanity it needs to be renewed
I honestly love them all so much and I canât wait to start reading the books just to see more of the world. Netflix better fucking renew it.
Listen, book!Lockwood who is so repressed that it just translates to beaming smiles has a special place in my heart, but at the same time I cannot stress how much I appreciate the live action series for showing us unbelievably exhausted Lockwood whoâs so obviously scared that Lucy and George will eventually leave (willingly or otherwise) but still has the gall to push them away. My boy was barely pulling it together. And ofc he would be so tired that the bags under his eyes are so prominent because weâre outside of Lucyâs POV now. Lucy whoâs always had rose-colored glasses when it comes to him.
Speaking of Lucy, I really do love how she calls him out. Sheâs so aggressive with her love. Itâs like sheâs demanding that George and her will love and care for him and thereâs absolutely nothing Lockwood can do about it so he just better shut up and take it. Peak found family right there.
How that scene where Lockwood comes to apologize to Lucy in the kitchen had so much âhusband in the doghouseâ vibes, and how ultimately what Lucy is really mad about is just her wanting Lockwood to value his life more. And for Lockwood to outright admit that yeah he was a bit suicidal but itâs a bit like he found a new reason for living because of Lucy and George, again I say PEAK FOUND FAMILY, this is my jam. The ease of which Lucy being Lucy calms him down. (Ugh, again the domesticity of choosing egg cups). He canât stand when sheâs mad at him and he learns about apologizing properly this time around, but when she wordlessly forgives him, you can see on his face how he could fall so quickly and deeply in love with her. Thatâs one thing I love so much about the live action series. While the book showed us more of Lucyâs feelings for Lockwood, I actually think the series highlights Lockwoodâs feelings more in that if I hadnât read the books beforehand, I could have easily seen it as Lockwood falling first. His abandonment issues are so prominent in the series and while they play it with humor with Fittes and Kipps, you can just see that desperation behind the lighthearted tone, and for Lucy to say that she chooses Lockwood and George anywayâŚ.!
This is basically an excuse to ramble about the little things they add in the series that I love so much, which works because weâre not restricted to Lucyâs POV, in no particular order:
How Flo can immediately see how Lockwood feels about Lucy because of the effect she has on him. Prior to that statement, sheâd only met Lucy once before, but that brief meeting told her everything she needed to know. She probably knew Lockwood in the aftermath of his familyâs death, so for her to see Lockwood just buttering someoneâs else toast for them and being all domestic and smiley, treating another person like a family member especially considering how guarded he is, she must have thought (and rightly so) that meeting Lucy made him have an appetite for life again.
We actually get to see Fittesâ and Lockwoodâs side of the fight! And it was awesome. âIâm Anthony bloody Lockwood.â I can no longer remember if that line was in the book or not but idc I love it.
George and Lucyâs scene was in the book, but the acting in the series just really sold it for me. How Lucyâs heart just broke hearing George talk about himself, especially everything he said then were feelings Iâm sure sheâs also had about herself. I seriously loved that last episode. George and Lucy were adorable. Again I say, found family ftw.
The rise of the Flo x George ship! âYou, me, and herons!â Again I say, adorable.
There are some elements that work better in book format, but in many ways the tv series really did elevate this beloved book series. It was a wonderful, wonderful adaptation. As a reader, I couldnât be more satisfied. As a shipper, I couldnât be more ecstatic.
Eliot: I stay close to protect Hardison and Parker. I suppose Iâm third wheeling but if thatâs what it takes to keep them safe then so be it
Hardison: Eliot is our boyfriend. We take him on dates all the time
Parker: he hasnât figured it out yet
Hardison: I suggested we tell him
Parker: but this is more fun
Hardison: yeah it is
the blueprint: Leverage season 5 episode 10, The Rundown Job
the legacy: Lockwood & Co. season 1 episode 8, Not the Eternal
The beautiful thing as you get older is that you realize so many ârulesâ are made up and you can just do whatever. Posters can go anywhere in the house not just my room. I can sit down while cooking a meal or taking a shower. I can make the same thing for breakfast lunch dinner for a week straight. I can roam around the house shirtless. I can wear a dress with jeans. The world is my oyster key word my and I can live as I please embracing little things such as this
i am on my knees asking, BEGGING, for the PJO (tv series) fandom to not ship walker and leah.
first off, theyâre both minors. second, they are actual people, they are not actually percy and annabeth.
iâve been in far too many fandoms where the line between shipping two characters and shipping the actors that play them gets blurred, and it (more often than not) ruins their friendship irl. so PLEASE let these two CHILDREN be separate from their characters.
it is so funny that leverage was like "alright this is the last season let's split up our main characters for two episodes and do slightly different genres than we usually do. we're gonna send nate and sophie on a charming little art theft slash murder mystery and send eliot and parker and hardison on an incredibly high stakes spy thriller. both episodes are gonna be SIMMERING with polyamorous sexual tension btw."
The thing about Leverage is it prioritizes what it takes seriously exactly right.
It's a fun, pulpy, goofy show but it has the most nuanced, thoughtful, and lasting character development.
A love story unfolds between a socially inexperienced thief and a hacker who doesn't hesitate in his willingness to be patient and understanding as she works out her unfamiliar feelings.
Wil Wheaton gets electrocuted and you can see his skeleton like a cartoon.
A grifter has an identity crisis and embarks on a lone journey of self-discovery, to return better and more certain of herself than before.
The team invents the Holodeck so they can hack into the dreams of off-brand Steve Jobs.
It's ridiculous. It's silly. It's brilliant. I've watched every episode over a dozen times.
Random stuff I love. Currently obsessed with Lockwood and co. Pls go stream it on Netflix we need season 2!!
