Sabrina's Musings

Feminism. Sexuality. LGBT rights. And a fair amount of fan-girl-ing. 30s/queer/demisexual/survivor of trauma/living with PTSD and anxiety. Obessed with McDanno and H50. And one Steven J. McGarrett. You've been warned.

my favorite is when Kermit’s facial expression is simultaneously an obvious hand in a puppet but also an instantly recognizable and relatable emotion

i’ve seen a lot of good character dynamics on my dash recently but there’s an excellent one i think you’re all forgetting: two people who are the smart, sensible voices of reason respected by their peers for their level-headedness and intelligence when they’re apart, but who turn into unholy chaotic disasters with zero impulse control as soon as they join forces

[valtsv]

like they each have an IQ of 160+ but whenever they’re together they cancel each other out and regress to utter Dumbass Bastard Mode™️

“My lord.” I spoke in a low voice that would not carry. “The fortress will be ready for your attack.”

Sheathing his sword, d’Aiglemort stared at me. “You’ll be captured.”

“Not before I gain the wall.” I wrapped my arms around myself and shivered. “The Skaldi camp is full of D’Angeline women. I can get close enough. And I can give a warning Ysandre will understand.”

D’Aiglemort shook his head slowly. “Do you not understand? Selig will make you talk. You’ll give us all up for dead.”

“No.” A dreadful laugh caught in my throat. “No, my lord. I am the one person who will not.”

It was too dark for him to make out the scarlet mote in my left eye, but I saw him look anyway, and remember. Isidore d’Aiglemort pushed his shining hair back from his face. “Why are you telling me?” he asked in a hard voice.

“Because you, my lord, are the one person who won’t try to stop me,” I said softly. “Help me get past our sentries. A hundred lives for every minute, you said. I can save a thousand, at least; mayhap three times that many. I gave you the choice of your death. The least you can do is honor mine.”

When I read this passage, all I can think of is how brave and selfless Phedre is. She knows that she will probably be captured, tortured and killed trying to tell the people inside the fortress about the upcoming attack, but to her it’s worth it as her message would save thousands of lives. She truly is a hero.

“In a similar example from the latter Kushiel books, a number of characters close to Imriel call him Imri. The one character who never, ever does is Sidonie. Part of that is reflective of her reserved nature, but it’s also reflective of the fact that she never sees him as a harmless boy one would call by a diminutive nickname. She sees him at first as a dangerous threat, and then as a dangerous temptation, and finally as a worthy partner. In every instance, she takes him very seriously.”

— Jacqueline Carey, on Imriel and Sidonie

I could live to 100 and never be over the fact that Steve McGarrett, on more than one occasion, wanted and expected his last words to be telling Danny Williams he loved him

Y’know what I’d have loved?

An episode where Steve got to curse like the sailor he is. Even with it being bleeped out

[alohaspaceman]

From @plenkov - Any secrets this holds will be answered in the season 10 finale #H50 - https://t.co/BDVV3wop7t

Meme. Five0 style.

[hi808h50]

Yeah, Blake’s wanted a puppy forever, so, uh, I’m never getting him out of here. So thanks for that.

[magnumpi-hawaiifive0]

Love how Danny volunteers both of them and Steve approves and likes it. Like PB & J, you don’t get one without the other. “US”

10.13 - Spoilers

This was such a pleasurable episode, light and playful, full of love, banter and I have to admit, Lou rocked it out with his part. He made me laugh and I had a great time watching it. The absolute darkness sneaked in with Adam but first, I wanna talk about that final scene in Steve’s living room.

That final freaking, awesome scene made me almost combust with this silent, hardly-believable joy when you‘ve found a treasure. I really, really melted down my damn couch. All the McDanno-we’re-so-stupidly-falling-for-each-other hints, what the hell? Whoa! I’m living for this!

Did you see the look exchange that happened there with Steve and Danny? Okay, Danny talks to Luke and his failed marriage and how Danny’s survived the trauma. He’s a divorced man and Luke‘s about to become one. Danny‘s leading the talk and Steve’s listens. But then... then Danny says to Luke like:

„...and you know look...“ (and Steve lifts his gaze and looks at Danny) „I guess you, you don’t have to, uh, go through this alone...“ (and Danny‘s eyes drift over to Steve‘s, their look meets) „when you ever wanna get together, have a beer, give US a call.“ ...And Steve’s smile lights up his whole beautiful face and he looks straight over to Danny!! Like he’s anyway expected Danny to meet Luke alone but Danny just goes from ‚we‘re a package deal‘ together or none...and Steve smiles with so much happiness at that realization that he’s with Danny like it’s the most natural thing...seriously. There’s SO MUCH love hoovering in the air.

And when Tani comes by Steve’s she enters and Steve goes with introducing her to Luke and then: „This is Danno.“ with so much tender affection it makes me gasp.

And then...Steve wants to know how Tani feels because Junior has been spun up, deployed, been called for reverse duty and he knows how hard it is. SEALs leave and the beloved ones stay behind. It’s the first time I hear him talking about „it’s hard to leave too“ and „that’s a tough message to get.“ And „If you wanna talk about it I‘m aviable. You should call me.“ and I‘m going all silent. Steve remembers the people he had to leave being in active duty and when he had to leave Danny going on a mission. And it kind of hit me unprepared.

And all the other amount of stupidly great moments. I mean...holy shit!! Season 10 blows my mind. All the McDanno love, all the proof. I’m dead.

Oh, man...I almost forgot Adam. There’s not much to say: Being oyabun? His birthright? A child of a frog is a frog...Head of the yakuza? WTF ADAM???)

Thanks for the reminder ;)
