New favorite genre is horrible people ruining their lives and also the lives of everybody else around them

Corey and Jaime were so damn phenomenal in Daddy I simply must gush for a moment

Corey captured the layers of Frank's character and his emotions so perfectly, really made him grounded without losing the edge that made him entertaining in Black Friday. a lot of it is the way he talks I think - he has this slower, condescending tone when he's talking to Lex, a brighter more practiced voice when talking to customers, and a much more casual, looser, more earnest and open tone when he talks to Miss Holloway or the vet. Boss Voice vs Salesman Voice vs Casual Voice, and they all feel so natural, because they're all equally true parts of the character. Frank's an asshole. he's charismatic and an excellent salesman. he has an earnest passion for toys. he's nostalgic for an easier time and feels like the progression of the world is leaving him behind. he's condescending and judgemental. he cares in a "tough love" type of way. he wanted to get Barry's body out of the dungeon. when he thought he was about to die and was apologizing to everyone he's failed, he apologized to Lex. you get his dismissive, condescending attitude, you get his earnest love of toys, you get his fear and his vulnerability and his softer, sadder side all from Corey's voice and his eyes and his facial expressions and it's all so natural and grounded. Frank Pricely contains multitudes and Corey delivered on every single one.

and Jaime is such a shapeshifter, just the difference in her physicality between Sherman and Sheila is amazing. the way she moves her hands - elegant and fluid movements as Sheila, the constant wiggling and grasping and twitching as Sherman. the posture, Sheila's formal and graceful while Sherman's shoulders are always at his ears. the two incredibly distinct voices, Sherman's nasally rasp and Sheila's smooth, refined tones. it's such an incredible showcase of her range as a performer. it's WILD to remember that they're the same person, the characters are so distinct and their interactions feel so natural. and that's not even mentioning Marco! how is she an elegant, 100+ y/o rich MILF, a spoiled manchild, and a Lurch-like inhuman behemoth all in one episode?? Jaime is a powerhouse.

if abigail is just like a plot device rather than a person i will be a little disappointed. i feel like u can for sure do smth interesting with her. show why duke fell for her. i want her to be the sweetest nicest person ever and we as the audience get kinda pissed at holloway for being so mean to her

Best couple in current Grey's, potential to be the best but we still has to see what actually becomes of their relationship. Still the greatest slow burn in a show that rarely has slowburns. Jules needs some stability from someone who is an adult duo to her upbringing, and Winston needs someone who will actually care for him the way he cares for her.

They are everything

THEY FUCKED. AND HELD HANDS WHICH IS WAY MORE HOT. THEY RAHAGAGAHAHHAHAHHHHHH

As I'm rewatching season 6 of ouat and reflecting on earlier seasons, I'm thinking more and more about Regina's magic.

Because Regina naturally sucks as magic. When Rumple teaches her as a young woman she's clearly struggling and has almost no innate talent for the craft, much in contrast to her mother - who despite starting to learn magic around Regina's age, she is a much easier time with it - and her sister, who has so powerful magic she can't even control it as a kid. Like Zelena practically is a magic powerhouse as a kid and Regina is definitely not.

We can see it also that as an adult, Regina is still not very potent in the natural magic department, or at the very least not as much as the other people surrounding her. Emma, Zelena, Rumple all have way more powerful magic than her, and Regina is constantly out raw magicked because she genuinely does not have that power, again and again.

But. That Goddess of a woman is also the definition of dedication beats talent. Granted that dedication came from a place of vengeance, but Regina just dedicated YEARS of her life to studying magic, to master it, to understand it in the most fundamental level so she can bend forces quite literally beyond her power to her will. She will never be as naturally gifted as Emma or Zelena, but she is shown to be able to find the most creative solutions using magic; not only because she's really fucking smart, but also because she had to learn how to be creative with the lesser magic because she doesn't have the power to do things like using the sorcerer's wand by herself.

To summerize, this is one hundred percent not the original intentions of the writers, but I think it's incredible how Regina despite being the weakest main character in raw, pure magic is also the most innovative, brilliant and creative when it comes to finding magical solution. I fucking love her. And the show. And her again.

imagine you were a small boy in king’s lynn. your parents are well-off but they’re not rich enough for the kinds of things you want to accomplish. so you put on a suit at fourteen and you make a presentation. A List of Reasons Why You Deserve To Achieve Your Dreams. your parents are too busy to be grown-ups, so you become one. you learn to sell yourself at a young age, because the dream you want is a business at the end of the day. it’s cut throat and bitter and you learn to play by its rules. you learn that you must have value to be worth anything.

you learn that love is a transaction.

so you become good. so good. you win every single race and championship so that everybody has to love you. your reward? a car that’s so bad that you cry when you get your first points. your dream becomes a grind, day-in and day-out. even when you’re so close, you’re so far from winning. but it’s ok, because the promise is that you will one day be in a car that has eight championships, racing alongside one of your heroes. so you have that hunger to prove something. when they call you up for even one race, you’re dynamite. you’re so close to winning, but just like all things in your life, you’re unlucky again. and when you finally make it to that car, your Promised Land, you find the Land is barren. destitute. an illusion. still, you cannot give up on your dream, even when you’re hated by the people whose love you crave. your country has its favourites and it’s not you. but you believe and believe, because no one has ever believed in you and if you don’t, who will? even when you get a rookie wonder boy teammate who gets all the things you never did, you believe. and suddenly, the car is finally good. you taste champagne again, stand on that prized first step. but then. in your home, in your country, you realize the car was never for you.

and you realize that love is still a transaction.

I've not yet watched episode 16 but I feel like the last two minutes of episode 15 is like watching a train wreck in slow motion

Katie JUST DIED. Twenty minutes ago. Her body is not yet cold in the ground. Lucas genuinely is the most fucked up after losing a girl; after his breakup with Simone he started to act like an ass to everyone (especially interns and often including patients. Dude do your job.) and after Katie he's now fucking Dani? Dude what. This cannot end well and they are setting this up to fail so that Lucas and Simone can get back together which I can understand but watching Dani sitting next to Lucas in the bar... and then she's being all assertive with him... And I already knew what was coming... ew ew ew Lucas Adams get your dick off that minor come on dudee

At this point I'm not sure what I hate more Bryant and Simone (I despise Bryant kick that man off my screen) or Dani and Lucas. I don't even care that much for Lucas and Simone as a couple I just feel like, as people, they can't be with anyone else. Their freak is only matched together.

Someone should write a fix-it fic for my life story

[haminamibami]

"Tell me what this is all about."

"Oh, Hey Mags."

My favorite bit of dialogue in Vow. They are everything to me.

[haminamibami]

Thinking about that SGE fic I desperately want to write but never knows how... a modern day Gavaldon with internet but still a medieval woods.

Agatha and Sophie have access to the internet so Agatha has self esteem. Agatha calls Tedros "medieval Justin Bieber". Sophie has a crashout once she realizes she does not have her hair products, makeup, serums, even her hairbrush. Agatha tries to gentle parent the evers about feminism.

I am reminded of that idea maybe once every four months and someday I will actually write it
