i fucking love how watching xfiles in order gives you such insane emotional whiplash

like for example, s1 you have ice, this amazing "the thing"-esque thriller, immediately followed by space, which is probably top ten least memorable episodes in the world. beyond the sea has so many emotional beats and insane levels of acting skill, immediately followed by fucking gender bender lmfao. the absolute mindfuck of having the duane barry/ascension/one breath trio interrupted by the 14 year old emo kid's vampiric wet dream that is 3??? unparalleled levels of unhinged decision making in that production room

anyway, i just watched colony/end game, and it ends with that poignant scene between mulder and scully in the hospital, after she put on such a demonstration of loyalty and love by ignoring his wishes and going after him and saving his life, and mulder finishes the scene by talking about how he has renewed faith in his search for truth despite his heartbreak, and it's beautiful bc in the end, isn't loyalty, love, and faith what this show is all about? -cue credits-

then "watch next episode" pops up and

it is the one with the invisible gorilla

this shit sure does keep you on your toes, huh?

wow... the close up shots of yeonwoo’s face and the fact that the first thing yoo han said to him was that he’s “pretty” hit in a completely new way once we fully understand the severity of yoo han’s face-blindness

his appearance is such a rarity, and now we understand that both yeonwoo and yoo han represent a once-in-a-lifetime experience of the world to each other

it also explains why yoo han was similarly entranced with yeonwoo, in a way that almost paralleled yeonwoo’s obsession with him. he is the only one who can give yeonwoo colors, and yeonwoo’s is the only face he can see.

how did she not shoot him on the spot?

there is something so deeply intimate about the fact that mulder signed as a witness to scully's will

y'know, in retrospect? after finishing watching that episode and reflecting, i don't think they ever actually explained why or how it was relevant that those zoo animals were invisible

god, i love the characterization of fujisaki. possibly aro/ace, or straight and just doesn’t prioritize romance because no one has to. she wants the best for adachi because she knows he would support her and be an ally that stands up for her. she wants adachi to be happy with kurosawa, if that is what adachi wants.

not only is she a female character whose sole purpose isn’t to create tension/jealousy in a BL, she has her own character motives and unique traits. she’s nuanced, and also dealing with not being society’s “normal standard.” she supports kurosawa and adachi being together, but not in a creepy, self-serving fujoshi way. because even though romance isn’t her thing, she sees that it might be special to them, and give them happiness. i really see a great friendship for the three of them.

I LOVE HER!!! GREAT CHARACTER
