umbrella academy
love vanya’s style
don’t really like golden boy luther even though he’s clearly just trying his best
the implication is that five could travel in time to before this time and an agency is on his trail
i love officer patch for putting diego in his place
so vanya shot five’s trust in her
so he uses klaus
so they’re torturing the wrong guy - he’s just gonna tell em whatever they wanna hear
allison you asshole. is there literally no one in vanya’s life that’s worth her? nope
“you’re an adult now vanya, you don’t get to blame your problems on anyone but yourself’ FUCK OFF ALLISON. she went to a goddamn therapist, she exposed what horrors you were put through, she made something of herself by mastering a damn instrument - no thanks to ANYONE ever believing in her.
she was trying to be fucking NICE. she literally was the only one who got NOTHING but shit out of the family - GREAT
im thinking that vanya is gonna explode in six days and take the whole of humanity with her. that’s what makes her special - at last
my question is why pogo is so convinced of their dad being a good man and a loving father - in his own way
‘she’s your sister, she knows you didn’t mean it’ that’s as unlikely in that family as a talking walking chimp. CLEARLY there’s zero trust between vanya or anyone. zero trust between any of them
i know they’re trying to present pogo as the real dad in the family - but like - his whole character and insistence on the above is an insult to the trauma they’ve all suffered
‘you were a child miss allison’ ‘but i’m not anymore’ she mirrors her projection back at herself. at least she can do that
of COURSE they’re going to keep allison’s discovery from the audience ugh. im really annoyed with the pacing?? xD it’s because the premise is so straightforward. i don’t normally mind a slow pace but this is like - superhero kids x abusive household. alright. TELL ME MORE
yeah i knew five went pretty mad and started talking to an inanimate object. you’d think he’d have more symptoms of solitary confinement
i thought he killed her but it didn’t work....he hit her in the neck, blood splattered, she went down, and she was back up again the next shot. some time shit? (edit: it was just her arm? those masks do some serious protecc tho)
ok but vanya is not amongst the dead
hey
the problem with these kids is that they don’t have the fortitude to look beyond themselves. they never even realised that their mother is a shell of a human being due to some sort of brainwashing (yeah she’s a robot?)
Diego doesn’t realise that his come-ons (defensive manoeuvres?) are the way to instantly rebuff his only ally
wow why is everyone so shitty to vanya
oh allison, having that power must be a curse on your relationships. but why hasn’t it ruined (obviously) her relationships with her siblings?
i know leonard is awkward but he’s just so friendly. and damn, finally somebody who appreciates her for her?
i love vanya though.
how did allison and luther find five and vanya in the middle of the streets though
these shitters ignore their ‘mom’ in everything - should we turn her off or not? why is that the first thing they go to? why don’t they talk with her together?
vanya has the shittiest and smallest room....
now diego lashes out at vanya. EVERYBODY lashes out at her - because there are no consequences - and there never were
it almost seems like their dad was a robot himself malfunctioning
hypocrisy. everybody bottling shit up. luther suddenly waking up and being a ‘monster’ instead of golden boy. ironic
‘i really need it for my nerves i’ve been taking it since i was kid’ OOHHHH have ya? might it be to repress your fucking powers? seeing as, your dad just kept insisting nothing was special about you?
Leonard!!!! i am really really starting to like this dude. i think they are trying to do a double rug pull. trying to make him look shady (’family right?’), trying to make him look good, trying to make him look shady again.... but really there’s nothing wrong with him
pogo is such a weird character. i really enjoy luther’s and diego’s conflict though.
luther really is still clinging to his privileged little ‘leader’ role, his ‘one’ role and he can’t fathom why the others WOULDN’T stay - just. like. him.
so yeah the agents are time travelers - but they THINK that Five is gonna be the cause ey? bc who would act to CAUSE the end of time? stupid
broken contract? ‘we’re also going to end the world’ so they already know it’s gonna happen - they just didn’t know five was gonna try and change it and they were gonna be involved in stopping him. sounds like the time travel agency camps out in time before the end
personally think it’s weird they’re spinning a romance between two people who’ve been raised as siblings but---- uh weird circumstances i guess
ok so it was a straight rug pull. unless - he’s being a creep throwing her pills away ‘for her own good’. that would still make him not good but not organised evil.
DETECTIVE PATCH RUN!!! DON”T DIE!!!! she’s gonna die isn’t she. fuck
god fucking dammit. it’s gonna give diego a complex bc he wasn’t there for backup. i dont give a fuck about diego i give a fuck about fucking detective patch fucking DYING. god fucking dammit
klaus fucking timetravelled oh my god
what the fuck tho like, this does not bode well for me at all. if they dare kill detective fuckin patch. for what. for a fuckin sad song
I LOVED THAT WOMAN
five grew super old before he ever left the wasteland?? all he gained was a bike
is that grace with a timetravelling suitcase?
did he not kill kennedy? you can retire to the time and place of your choosing - lol fucking bullshit. and i was right - time agency camps out before the end...
oh klaus has had an experience. sky soldiers? 1968. what was going on then? what war? right vietnam
Helen stopped showing up for first chair? hmmmmMMMMMM it’s like they’re gonna try and build Vanya up. Vanya is DEFINITELY the key
let’s give klaus even MORE ptsd
butterfly effect: just kill a dude and time changes. maybe...try NOT killing someone, saving someone, changing someone ? to ? change time?
‘you’re not my mother. worry about your own daughter’
‘that’s not fair’ hmmmm it’s pretty fair. i mean you barge back into somebody’s life after 12 years and then finally when she’s got a bf you’re like: actually! i bet he’s a creep. lol
i mean she’s probably right but does she not HEAR herself? no bc these kids have never thought about anything else but themselves and their own perspectives
why the FUCK would allison walk in heels if she’s been trained in combat
vanya’s power surfaces....
no one’s ever believed in me like this - hmmm. seems more and more deliberate. Leonard seems very enthusiastic about ‘out of body experience’?? ‘this is your time’ HMMM
LITERALLY an invisible force
the actress for grace is incredible. going from so animated as to seem human to so robotic as to seem not human at all to all these microexpressions mixing the two.
‘do you remember what happened?’ hmmmm
anyway this series takes waaayyyyy too long lol going to bed
