one of my favourite little goofs they do in Bones is that once every couple of seasons they'll have someone completely outta left field know EXACTLY what bones is talking about and i love it - like that girl in the club explaining bones bumbling compliments while referencing Descartes philosophy, or the sneakerhead auctioneer going yea no these are indeed indicators of class status within our society.

Bones textposts (2/?)
saying “i want him” about the character but not in a romantic or sexual way . i just Require him i need to Obtain him
Remember how Temperance “monogamy is stupid” “marriage treats women as property” “heteronormativity is a harmful social construct” “it takes a village” Brennan got a house in the suburbs, had 1.5 kids, got married in a catholic ceremony, and generally got absorbed by Standard Tv Mom-Wife?
Good news, the writers of Bones have reached out and need us to write how this would have actually played out in queer non-standard ways. What actually happened?
My suggestions:
They don’t get married because their love is more than a state-recognized business partnership OR it is actually Brennan’s idea very early on, she makes a courthouse date last minute so they can get tax benefits. She does not wear a white dress, thank you very much.
Brennan keeps her apartment. She needs her alone time sometimes, and it’s hard for Booth to not take that personally. He’s the type to insist they sleep in the same bed even if he can’t sleep because she snores too much. It takes time to feel secure enough and recognize she’s not rejecting him when she needs to be alone. It makes times when they’re together that much more special.
Jared, Padme, Rus, Amy and the girls are way more present. It’s less a focus on the B&B household and more on the supportive network of everyone taking care of each other and each others kids. Same goes for Ange, Hodgins, and Michael-Vincent, who are always trading off whose house they’re staying at.
They take in foster kids, which is more important to both of them than needing to have a genetic connection. They both know what it’s like to need some love after being abandoned by their families. Maybe they even take in Jared’s kid, if things with him go south.
Parker’s gay. He comes out to Brennan first because he’s scared his dad is going to freak out, what with the whole Catholic thing. Brennan, who has no filter even on her good days, is confused and immediately outs Booth as being bisexual. Happy family ending where everyone gets a kinder sort of masculinity than the show allows.
When Brennan needs a break, or has moral scruples with how her own evidence is manipulated to incarcerate innocent people, she takes on projects that better suit her moral priorities. She joins efforts working on the American and Canadian boarding schools, the Magdalene Laundries and other similar mass burial sites. Booth is initially uncomfortable but then becomes emphatically supportive. The Church he believes in should never have done these things, so it’s his moral duty as a good Catholic to seek justice for those that the church wronged.
Similarly, Booth and some old buddies start asking some questions, poking and prodding the right people with the right kind of concerns. They end up putting together an effort to investigate American and ally war crimes in Afghanistan. Brennan is the perfect person to lead the research effort, and it’s excellent work for her students. Similar to the Church, I think Booth’s pride in the military can go hand-in-hand with trying to right it’s wrongs and hold it to a higher standard.
As far as the monogamy thing goes, I think it would be complicated to get there, but not impossible. It would take a long time for Booth to feel secure enough in their relationship to even consider it. I think it’s relatively easy for him to accept that Brennan and Angela have A Thing. I think, with some tweaks, there’s a future where, when Hannah comes through town, they all have fun together.
What else?? Please share your thoughts!!
Also ADHD Booth!!! ADHD Booth who has always had an inferiority complex about his intelligence surrounded by all his genius squints, and how learning that diagnosis and how he overcompensated his own physicality to train his focus and how after age and the amount of injuries and torture he's had is making it harder to do that, he finally starts learning other coping skills and uses this to get into projects of making things right and holding the Church and the military to higher standards.
As a Booth/Bones/Cam shipper I would also suggest adding Cam to the polycule. Oh, and Booth/Hodgins obviously, because 1. you cannot convince me that the Bug Man doesn't make Booth have confusing bisexual feelings, and 2. you could easily have them get together as an indirect result of Bones's and Angela's relationship

bones is my emotional support copaganda show because never before has a straight couple exhibited such homosexual levels of yearning
hate when people are like "trust your gut! listen to your intuition!" like okay well my gut is telling me every person i lay eyes on is hunting me for sport and my intuition is saying i should find a secluded cave and live there forever so what do you suggest i do with that information
Sweets, leans in the door and signs something to Booth who is in a meeting:
Booth, looks up and then nods, before looking back to his notes and without missing a beat, excuses himself from the meeting:
Hodgins: What did Sweets say to Booth that was so time pressing and serious?
Breenan, who sadly understands both ASL and Booth, sighs: "Dairy Queen closes in 10 minutes"
i sometimes like characters that fucking suck. when a character is a shit head in just the right way it can be so funny and/or compelling. like this is my beloved character, Asshole The Hater. they suck and i love them. someone dropped them into a ditch on the side of the road and i picked them out of the ditch and put them in my pocket
-Ever heard of the bone gatherers? Collecting bones so that the dead can make their journey to the next world? -I'm not even sure I believe in the next world. -Doesn't matter what you believe in. You're a bone gatherer. That's a good thing, helping the spirits move on. -Thank you. It's probably the best job description I'll ever get.

rip mickey milkovich, you probably would have hated teddy parker
Angela: If you put a milkshake in one yard and crack open a cold one in another yard, which yard would the boys go to? Brennan: Schrödinger's boys. Hodgins: FUCK! Cam: What about cracking open a cold milkshake? Zack: As we all know, the milkshake brings the boys to the yard. The presence of the boys is a prerequisite for the cracking open of a cold one, but cold ones do not have any inherent boy-attracting abilities. Milkshakes, however, do. Zack: All else being equal, the boys would proceed to the milkshake yard. While it is possible to announce the presence of cold ones in the hope of attracting some boys, the pull of the milkshake is much more powerful by comparison. Angela: ... Brennan: ... Hodgins: ... Cam: ... Zack: Mind you, all of this nonsense hinges on whether or not the boys are back in town.
we need more concerning women in media. I want to be watching a TV show and to go "oh that woman has problems." I want to watch a woman constantly make the worst decisions in the world with no sign of stopping
