This week's episode of The Magicians and the promo for next week's just reminded me about the fact that this is the only show where I pretty much ship every character with each other. There's my top babies Alice x Quentin but there's also Quentin x Julia then Julia x Marina but Julia x Kady are also amazing but Kady x Penny are absolutely the shit but Penny x Sunderland have incredible chemistry/sexual tension and that's not even taking into consideration that Alice x Margo would be something else but also Margo x Eliot are soulmates and while Eliot x Fen is pretty good I wouldn't mind a little Eliot x Quentin here and there but Quentin x Penny would be so funny. (Also...Julia x Martin has crossed my mind for a few seconds. Don't you dare judge me. I know it's wrong but they could be good for each other if written well. Shut up 🙄) Basically I literally just want them to become a big polyamorous group that loves and protects each other and has so much sex.

I didn't think The Magicians would be a show you would like. I personally can't stand Quentin.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: the show is not perfect, by any means, but it somehow overcomes it own shortcomings. Despite its pitfalls, it’s a good show. There’s a lot of room to grow and I think they’ll eventually find their way. The writers haven’t let me down too much yet. I’m hoping they don’t.

I feel like people who hate Quentin are missing the point of Quentin??? Quentin Coldwater is supposed to be unlikeable. He absolutely is. So knowing that, you have to analyze what purpose do his personality traits serve within the story and how does it advance not only his own arc but also the one of those around him. You also have to understand that Quentin is canonically very mentally ill and that a lot of his character traits stem from his clinical depression/suicidal tendencies and what I see as possible personality disorders. Mental illness isn’t always pretty and quirky and edgy. It sometimes makes people difficult to be around and be hard to deal with. I think that’s where the success in his character lies. As someone who has clinical depression and personality disorders it feels like a very realistic portrayal to me.

The media needs to stop associating mental illness w/ male violence in general. White terrorist? Nah, boy w/ a mental illness. Goes all the way to tv shows. they assign a random mental illness to explain away white male behavior w/ no regards to accuracy. Then we actually get one(quentin) but ppl r too use to the same ole bullshit to recognize.

Yeah, the media does a great job of stigmatizing mental illness to the detriment of everyone. It's discouraging and quite frankly dangerous.

Quentin is such good mental illness rep. My poor broken son. I don't think I can come up with any other character in recent years that has depicted what being mentally ill is as well as Quentin.

Open to: m preferred, selective with f & nb, prefer Eliot if possible.

     Quentin cackled softly under his breath, more than a little intoxicated. Clinking glasses, he tipped his head back and drained the wine, feeling like he was free of any and all cares. Alcohol had that effect, and it was worse with his medication on top. ❝Bite me.❞ he answered their playful jibe, laughing. ❝And do that trick to fill up the glasses again.❞

The amount of times Quentin has told Alice he loves her this season is the best thing that's happened in my entire life
