There are a couple of things about current shipping culture that confuse me.  

1. The focus on whether or not a pairing will become canon as a reason people should ship something or not.  Do you not understand what the “transformative” part of “transformative works” means?”

2. This idea that saying “I ship that” means “I think that, as presented in canon,this is a perfect, healthy relationship that everyone should model their relationship after.” 

Sometimes shipping something does mean that.  Sometimes shipping something means “Person A is a trash bag who doesn’t deserve person B but I would love to explore how Person A might grow to deserve Person B.” Sometimes it means “I want these characters to live together forever in a conflict free domestic AU.”  Sometimes it means “I want Person A to forever pine after Person B.  Nothing is beautiful and everything hurts.”  And sometimes it just means you like their faces and want to see Person A and Person B bone in various configurations and universes.

This really should be one of a handful of Public Service Announcements randomly and chronically inserted into one’s dash.

Hell man sometimes it means “these two are TERRIBLE and I want to watch them burn like a catastrophic forest fire as a proxy for all the shit I don’t actually want in real life (like to light my own apartment on fire and scream) and then laugh at the destruction at the end.”

All “I ship it” really means – really – is “I think there’s a story in those two, and I want to hear it.”

That would be valid, if it were your real reason. But it’s not.

In the gifset you made with boreanaz getting distracted, what episode is that?

Hey! It’s episode 4.22 - The Double Death of the Dearly Departed.

[johnfrancisbaely]

I can’t watch this scene without getting distracted by Boreanaz getting distracted by JFD. I feel like filming this episode might have been actual chaos.

no one:

me: listen i know there are incredibly sad and tragic tv deaths throughout the history of television and yes they are all valid, but all i ask is that the death of dr. lance sweets be acknowledged in every single one of these “saddest/most traumatic tv deaths” listicles. he did not die in his best friend’s arms, leaving the love of his life, his unborn son, and all his beloved friends to be disrespected like that. he was the heart, soul, and backbone of bones and deserves the absolute world to this very day
