leverage redemption episode where for reasons the crew needs to go undercover at a star trek convention.

eliot obviously goes as a klingon. hes in the full makeup and get up he pretends he hates this. he of course ends up making friends with other klingon cosplayers and is at some point invited to a regular cosplay meetup by them. there is also an egregious fight scene where he uses a batleth to take down like 8 people also in full cosplay. it is awesome.

i think breanna would maybe go as b'elanna. maybe im just projecting a lil but i could really see her loving the complicated smart woman of colour and i just think she'd really love the lady engineer esp as a young woman in stem and with her love of tech and computers. and shed certainly be the right age for voyager to have been something she watched when she was younger (perhaps with hardison as a way for him to bond with his new foster sister <3)

parker isnt in full cosplay for practical reasons. however not wanting to miss out on the fun her regular thief garb is accompanied by vulcan ears and she spends the entire episode speaking a monotone vulcan impression. this annoys eliot IMMENSELY.

sophie is reluctant to dress up in a cosplay. she thinks its tacky and would hinder her performance to be in such an outfit. then hardison shows her a picture of lwaxana troi and she is SOLD. she easily has the single most elaborate cosplay of the group. she is constantly being swarmed by congoers who want her photo.

hardison is in the van mostly this episode (much to his dismay as the groups resident main trekkie) but he makes use of this to cycle through about 5 different cosplays (notably riker, kirk and sisko are in the mix) whenever the camera cuts to him hes dressed as someone new. he ends up coming into the building towards the end of the con just in time to witness eliots big batleth fight and make some extremely delighted jabs at him.

harry misread the email and shows up in a full chewbacca cosplay suit. hardison is like "absolutely not" and makes him go change. so hes in his regular old suit for the entire con. he looks incredibly out of place.

bonus if tara is also there this episode and she goes as seven of nine. theres an obvious joke made about how she looks "so much like the actress who plays seven" and shes like "idk i just dont see it personally :/"

canon mlm rep be like "i like a boy..but im!?!? also a boy!? >-<??" meanwhile queerbaiting "if you die i'm alone".

I was pretty annoyed with Hen throughout the entire episode 9x08. Yes, Chim could have gone about it a little more gracefully, but he was right. Hen put her own life, as well as the life of her colleagues, her FIRE FAMILY, and the public at risk by ignoring her symptoms and continuing to work. Claiming she did it so she wouldn’t disrupt the group and have them lose another loved one? That’s bullshit. What’s worse: finding out your friend is sick and going about trying to find out what’s wrong with her together, or losing her in the field without ever knowing that she was sick. You know? The way Bobby died?

And blaming the rest of the team for never asking how Hen was feeling after losing Bobby? She hid her symptoms. Did she expect the team to just randomly walk up to her and ask her if she is experiencing mysterious tremors, rashes and vertigo? She’d have shut them down so fast. And asking about how she is faring with losing Bobby? Pretty sure Hen made fun of Buck doing grief assessments of them all at the end of last season. He checked in and was ridiculed for it. Why would he continue to do so if they so clearly dismissed his efforts to keep the group close through those traumatic times?

And I don’t see Hen checking in with anyone other than Athena and maybe Chim, either. She’s not the only one who lost a friend. They all did. And her making out that Bobby’s death hit her worse than anyone else just undermines the grief of everyone else in this supposed family. She has it rough? What about Buck, who has a history of abandonment issues, who’s lost his father figure and is trying so hard to keep Bobby in his life that he’s grasping at straws, ranging from church to the supernatural. He was convinced Bobby haunted his house just so he could feel close to him, like he hadn’t been abandoned by yet someone else in his life. Cause you know, if he’s haunting his house, then he’s not really gone, right? Or Chim, who shows extreme survivor’s guilt, blaming himself for Bobby’s death, even though there was literally nothing he could’ve done to change the outcome of the lab explosion. Who doesn’t believe he deserves to be Captain, because he will never measure up to Bobby. Who now doesn’t only have to worry about his own wellbeing and his family, but also taking care to bring home all of his team at the end of each shift. So they can go back to their families. Which Bobby never did because of (in his head) him.

But oh no, no one has it worse than Hen!

obviously you don’t get autism because your mom took tylenol while she was pregnant with you. you get autism because your mom had sex with the president but the president was being possessed by lucifer by so oops! satan baby. then your mom befriends an angel and they go on the run together and she decides he’s going to be your father and that guy happens to have autism so you sort of absorb it through osmosis.

[sadbuckley]

buck could do this eddie might do that… can we please focus on the task at hand… eddies parents finding out about the will.

[perlaret]

i kinda love the texas conversation about quitting chess because it is so incredibly important to eddie’s following actions and you can see the lightbulbs going on as he has it with chris. walk with me here. the dialogue goes something like

Chris reiterating wanting to quit with: I hate chess.

Eddie: I thought you loved it.

Chris: Grandpa loves it.

Eddie: …And you love grandpa.

like there are so many situations where eddie has followed this exact same logic!!! if i reverse the order of it back to front (chris loves his grandpa, his grandpa cares about chess, chris does chess competitively to make ramon happy, chris makes himself sick doing something he hates) and then apply that to eddie’s choices throughout the seasons—

Eddie loves Chris. Chris is apparently thriving in Texas so he must love it. Eddie moves to Texas. Eddie is miserable.

Eddie loves Chris. Chris is scared about the dangers of Eddie’s job. Eddie changes jobs. Eddie’s mental health collapses.

Eddie loves Chris. Chris adores Ana. Eddie continues to date Ana. Eddie starts having panic attacks.

Eddie loves Chris. Chris loves and misses his mom. Eddie tries things again with Shannon even though he’s not sure it’s what he wants. Neither of them are happy or sure until another pregnancy scare disrupts the status quo.

Eddie loves Chris. Chris needs good insurance and to be provided for. Eddie reenlists. Eddie gets shot 3 times and discharged and his marriage deteriorates.

to quote father brian in confessions, there’s a heavy dash of “you can’t take care of others without first taking care of yourself” in this, because this is also the underlying pattern that drives eddie to continuously make decisions that hurt his relationships because he’s hurting himself with self-sacrifice while assuming what people want or what’s best for them at times, or assuming they want outcomes they never actually asked for, and everyone ends up worse for it. eddie is talking to chris, but he is also basically talking to himself in that moment, and i think starting to realize that his own self-repressing and people-pleasing has inadvertently taught his son to do the exact same. and now chris is the one throwing up at chess tournaments like eddie used to throw up when going and seeing santa. so we get to see him stop this pattern where chris is concerned, both in taking him back from his parents and also i think in flying him back to LA, but it really remains to be seen how it plays out in the areas of eddie’s life that aren’t just about him being a father, because that’s the next step we’re all fervently waiting for

BUCK AND EDDIE (9-1-1)

[deathcoremoshpit]

"Supernatural: Lazarus Rising, out now on VHS!"

[weird-goodbyes]

an episode of 911 where Ravi’s leftovers get taken by someone out of the firehouse fridge and the episode shifts to noir (where we can hear Ravi's thoughts and everything is sepia or black and white) whenever he’s trying to figure it out, but his coworkers just keep confessing to other bigger secrets when he interrogates them. He gets Chim to confess that he lost an important piece of paperwork because he's overwhelmed. He gets Hen to admit to getting Karen to hack the game Hen & Buck have been playing so that she always wins. You get Buck to confess that he's only been sleeping in the bunkroom, even when he's not on shift, because he hates his apartment. He gets Eddie to confess that he's trying to play mind games to get Buck to move back in because he misses him. Meanwhile, Ravi is just trying to figure out who ate his caesar salad wrap. It turns out to be the new probie who he didn't even bother interviewing.

[hollis-art]

911 you have the opportunity to do the funniest thing tomorrow

please. please please. please. you can even send eddie to super-hell, idc. do it. please.

close-ups of the doodles i particularly enjoy :)

[buddiesblr]

you know, after i got the news, i couldn't remember the last time i had spoken to bobby.

[mybuddybuck]

it’s just an interesting observation in an observationally interesting way

[lordkuntfuck]

Chris does something stupid and gets hurt and he calls Buck cuz he doesnt want his dad to be mad at him except it hits Buck hard cuz its something he used to do and he kinda loses it and like goes off on one about being safe and not risking ur life and shit (when he calms down he apologises for getting angry obviously)

But then Buck is like u know u have to tell ur dad right so reluctantly Chris does. But then Eddie is just like surprisingly chill about it and Chris is so confused cuz like why has Buck and his dad switched personalities.

And then Buck sees Eddie's reaction (or lack there of) and starts panicking that he overreacted and disciplined his best friends kid when it wasnt his place and also unnecessarily. So he goes to Eddie and like grovels but then Eddie is just like "Buck I didn't react cuz I knew you already had, I wasn't worried cuz u were there with him and had clearly already told him off and comforted him. For once you let me be good cop why would I be mad at you"

And then Buck is like fuck you for making me fall in love with you even more.

[chollybolly]

I love that Eddie said “this doesn’t change a thing between us” after Buck came out to him, and both he and Buck took it as gospel so much so that Buck’s actual boyfriend broke up with him because of it.

Eddie said “so you like men? Cool, you having a boyfriend doesn’t mean we can’t still be husbands. You can just bring him along on our dates, and I’ll make sure to be there during all of your dates too.” And Buck said “Perfect, that makes total sense. You and Tommy were friends first so obviously he will love having you around during all the key moments of our relationship, and he will definitely not feel threatened by your ever constant presence.”

Then they hugged and Eddie went home to tell his girlfriend who moved in a day ago that she should move out.
