ch season 2 opinions

design::

i don't like the new characters' color schemes other than frida. i think the colors work well with her and her character.

confucius' character was wasted, i wish he had more screen time with jfk other than the keyboard warriors scene, plus his bright colors make me want to scream:(

HARRIET TUBMAN'S DESIGN DRIVES ME CRAZY. i understand the whole "ohh her old design wasn't important and the only scene she had was a canceled test scene" stuff but like i wish they'd kept it. she looks like a highlighter to me and i wish they'd given her SOMETHING to make her look more like harriet, maybe the old hair design. she could be any black historical female figure and it wouldn't be surprising.

the new principal girl is fine, idrc about her that much. she isn't too out there but i also think it's really stupid they made her related to joan it just seems like a way for them to get her more screen time

*gulp* ships::

they ruined joanfk, joan didnt act anything like the sarcastic gothy teen she used to be, she was obsessed with being popular and looking cool (ex. cleocoming), and jfk only made sex jokes. no war puns, no funny magic man-esque one liners, nothing. plus he became super clingy and just not the jock he used to be. the whole reason they worked was because they felt open with each other and told each other everything, but in the reboot they hide all sorts of stuff from each other.

i hate harriet and jfk. they should've used that time to develop frida and cleo, who are

the most random ship ever. cleo gave me such homophobic vibes in the first season and to see her date another woman with NO ARC is terrible. she AT LEAST couldve had a "i can date girls?" gag. but no, nothing. it feels so cash grabby and shallow.

i have no sentimental attachment to harriet and confucius, so them dating meant nothing to me. it felt like watching two random people make out: weird, strangely random, and confusing.

it's so scudworth coded to have him in love with a woman that wants him dead.

plot::

cleo had no important points except for cleocoming where she didnt even act like herself. i assume this was to hide the fact that she got a brand new voice actor, but i think she's doing fine. the script is the issue. she's no longer manipulative. she's just mean. the old cleo would've thrown the blood pumpkin rumor right back in joan's face.

the "clone leader test" plot sucked. should've made another cloney island plotline.

booo topher i hate him

#clone high #jfk clone high #joanfk #clone high season 2

This is just 2k of pure pain.

You're warned.

⚠️ Major character death ⚠️

It's been a year. One horrible year since Daniel died.

To say Lando was a wreck when Daniel died is an understatement. He was simply inconsolable.

Daniel was his reason to smile. Now that reason was gone.

The only person who could understand him a little bit was Max.

Max who loved Daniel just as much as Lando did, but in a different way.

The whole grid can still remember the guttural screams both boys let out when they watched Daniel's crash.

The absolute devestation that fell over the paddock.

Carlos had caught hold of Lando, trying to hold him up.

It took more than one person to hold Max back from running towards Daniel's demolished car.

It was clear.

Daniel wasn't gonna get out.

Not alive at least.

The races for the rest of the season were canceled after that.

Nobody felt like getting close to their cars anymore.

"Marry me."

Lando spit out the sip he just took from his drink to stare at the older man.

"W-what?!"

Daniel chuckled, but it sounded nervous. "We're in Vegas. We've been together for what... 2 years?"

Lando scratched at his curls, "2 years and a half." He murmurs, swatting at Daniel's arm when he chuckles.

"It's about time then, don't you think?"

"You can't just ask me this, just like that, out of the blue!"

"Why not?"

"Because!"

"I wasn't exactly asking either...."

"That's even worse!"

Daniel grinned, "Would it be better if I did it like this?"

And then he reached into the inside pocket of his jacket, producing a little velvet box out of it. Lando gasped, clasping a hand over his mouth, as Daniel went down on one knee.

"Lando Norris. Love of my life. Will you marry me?"

Lando couldn't speak. Couldn't even move.

"Lando?"

Daniel's worried tone and his hand on his cheek shook him out of his trance.

He didn't even realize he was crying.

He clasped onto Daniel's hand on his cheek and twined their fingers together.

"Yes! Yes I will marry you!!!"

Daniel's worried frown turned into a spit eating grin.

He got up from the floor and gathered Lando up in his arms, spinning him around until they were both dizzy.

The ring wasn't slid on his finger until the ceremony the next evening.

The whole grid was there. Max and Carlos as proud best men.

It was the quickest, but also the best marriage ever.

No one could predict it would be this short lived.

It was just minutes before Q3 would start.

Somehow Lando got kicked out at Q1 and Max's car had dnf'ed in Q2.

As sad as it was for him, Lando had still made his way over to the Redbull garage (yes, Daniel was a Redbull driver again) to wish his husband of one day good luck.

"I'm sorry you aren't out on the track with me," Daniel murmured in between soft kisses.

"Eh. The car was shit. You'll just have to drive for both of us."

"I'll do you proud."

"You always do, Dan."

"I love you, hubby."

Lando's smile lit up the whole paddock.

"I lw1ove you too. Go get them!"

Daniel winked and blew him a kiss before pulling on his balaclava and helmet, lifting himself into his car.

Lando made his way to the media pen, still smiling, finger playing with the ring around his finger. Completely unaware of what he was about to witness.

It was in the middle of an interview that his attention was pulled towards the screen.

"That's Ricciardo's Redbull spinning! Crashing against Ocon's Alpine and flying up in the air! Oh no.... No, this is a bad one..."

Lando watched on in complete horror as he saw Daniel's car catch fire. He could also see absolute mayhem in the pitlane.

He heard a scream, then another one very close by.

He didn't even realize the second scream was his own until he felt Carlos' arms wrap around him as his knees buckled.

Daniel wasn't coming out.

It was taking too long.

He really wasn't coming out, no matter how hard the marshals were trying.

He couldn't hear anything of the absolute chaos around him because his ears were ringing.

Fingers wrapped around the ring on his finger.

They just got married.

This was supposed to be the happiest time of his life.

A dream come true.

Not this nightmare.

Every day and every night since then, Daniel's ethereal form watched how Lando suffered.

How he stayed in bed for the next two months most of the time. Only Max, sometimes Carlos too, were allowed to visit him.

It was absolutely heartwrenching to watch. Especially because he couldn't do anything. Lando couldn't even see him.

Sometimes he thought Lando felt his presence. Same with Max.

Max wasn't much better off than Lando, Daniel could tell just by seeing his face when he visited Lando.

When he had to watch Max crawl into bed with Lando, hearing them cry until they were too exhausted and fell asleep.

Their sleep never lasted long either.

They often remenised about their own times with Daniel.

As friends. As teammates. And for Lando, as lovers.

Daniel listened to the stories with a soft, sad smile on his face.

Sometimes he wishes he could pull them both into a hug.

He mostly wishes he could put a smile back on Lando's face.

He misses that smile so much.

Now they're a year later, back in Vegas.

Lando on one hand wishes they wouldn't race there anymore, but on the other hand he knows how much Daniel loved Vegas.

So ironic....

But something happens that year. Something none of them expected. Least of all Lando.

"That's P1 Lando! P1! You're the Vegas GP winner!"

“No... I... I won?! "

“Yes! Your first win!"

"Oh my---" and then he's sobbing. "I can't believe this. Daniel.... Holy shit. This... This is for Danny. "

Zak's voice comes through the radio. "Well done, Lando. I'm sure he'd be proud of you."

Lando is caught between laughing and crying.

He parks the car and sits there, head bowed. He still can't wrap his head around this victory.

He finally lifts himself up, with shaking arms and shaking legs. He almost trips and falls, but Max, who's P2, is there to catch him and wrap him up in a hug.

They pull back long enough to take off their helmets and balaclavas, dropping them into Lando's car for a moment, then they're hugging and clutching at each other once again.

"He's so proud of you, Lando." Not 'he would be' just a 'he is'. "Can you feel it? He's so happy for you."

Lando nods, crying into Max's shoulder, his hand snaking up between their bodies, fingers curling around the ring on his necklace.

He can't feel it, but, Daniel's wrapped around his back, his arms wrapped around both him and Max as the three of them cry with smiles on their faces.

He's so proud of his boy. Of his husband.

He only wishes he could show him.

But somehow, he thinks he knows.

They're standing up on the podium.

Oscar P3. Max P2 and Lando P1.

One hand is holding his trophy, the other is wrapped around the ring on his necklace once again.

He stares up at the clouds as the anthem of Great Britain plays, hoping he's looking down smiling.

Then...... Something happens.

As the anthem is about to end, it changes. It changes into the Australian anthem and Lando's jaw drops.

He looks over at Oscar, then at Max. They both just look as flabbergasted as he does.

He can tell there's a commotion behind the scenes. They're trying to stop the music but it doesn't work.

He looks back up at the sky, sees how the sun comes peeking through and he gets it.

His fingers clasp around the ring even harder and he smiles.

It feels like he's bathed in sunlight. Wrapped up in his husband's loving embrace.

Max gets up on the top step with him, wrapping his free arm around his waist. He knows he's looking up at the sky and smiling too.

Mere seconds later, Oscar does the same.

They just stand there, basking in the warmth and glory.

The whole crowd is looking at them, then up at the sky.

There's a reason for everything.

And this reason was Daniel.

"Congratulations again." Oscar's soft voice startles Lando a little.

They're sharing a hotel room together because Max is rooming with Carlos, the two of them became a lot closer the last few months, and Oscar is the only other person Lando allows to get close to him.

He's his teammate after all. Has been since before Daniel died.

To be honest, they've been growing closer the last few months too. Since racing season started up again.

At first Lando didn't let him in, Oscar had expected that, but he was so insistent. Just never giving up. And eventually, Lando let him in again.

"Thanks," He smiles, patting the space on the bed next to him. "Still can't believe I just had my first win."

"I can," Oscar smiles back, sitting down next to him. His eyes go over to the ring around his neck. "So could he. Obviously."

Lando's eyes go down to his chest, his hand going up to hold the ring once again.

"I still don't know how that happened." He whispers, feeling Oscar move closer, feels an arm being wrapped around his shoulders.

"I don't either. But it did." He rests his head on Oscar's shoulder and feels his fingers card through his curls.

"I know I'm not him," Oscar whispers softly, his free hand curling around Lando's hand that's holding the ring. "and I'll never try to replace him. But I like you, Lando."

Lando closes his eyes, fingers clenching around the ring even tighter.

"I know. No one will ever be him." He feels Oscar's starting to retreat, but he stops it by twining their fingers together around the ring. "But I think he'd like it to be you." He opens his eyes, turning his head so he can look into Oscar's eyes. "I like you too, Oscar. I just.... Need time."

Oscar nods, squeezing the fingers that are twined with his. "I'll give you all the time you need."

It's like they can feel the ring vibrate inside their joined hands and they both gasp.

Lando looks out of the window and nearly topples over, out of the bed. as he sees a well known reflection, just in a flash.

His eyes quickly glance over to the corner he thought he saw the reflection stand in, but there's no one there. Of course there isn't.

He can't be there - - -

"Lando, look!“

Oscar's breathy voice makes him look at him and Oscar points to the window Lando was just looking through.

The window is fogged and instead of a reflection, he can now see words that are written in the fog.

'It's okay. Proud of you. Love. Always. DR3'

Lando entangles himself from Oscar, gets off the bed, then holds his hand out towards his younger teammate and walks with him to the window.

He stares at the words, then replies on the glass next to it.

'I'll never forget you. Love. Always. LN4'

He thinks he sees the light on the other side of the road flicker a few times. He knows it's not just his imagination when he feels Oscar squeeze his hand.

A single tear leaves his eye as he feels like he's losing Daniel one last time. But at the same time he smiles, because he knows he's happy for him.

He feels Oscar wrap his arms around him from behind and hook his shin on his shoulder as they both stare out of the foggy window.

The light flickers one more time. Then it's dark.

Daniel's gone.

But he'll live on in their memories.

And in the little things he left behind.

Did I just finished watching 1899? Yes.

Do I want to share my thoughts? Yes.

That intro??? That was so good. I didn't skip it for the whole show.

The character writing? I could kiss the creators. & the actors for being perfect.

Daniel🥺

The mind fucking plot? 10000/10 (I don't get it but I love it)

I can't go on without spoiling (do not read further when you haven't watch the show)

Daniel, again. Like he is really out there suffering the most (suffering isn't a competition but you know what I mean)

The scene, where they all go jumping off, was hilarious to watch (the shots with the whole ship, ofc not the scenes with Krester and Lis mom)

Olek being a decent human being. 🥰🥺

I do think Maura's father is wrong when he tells Elliot that his father doesn't care about him. Daniel knows his son is dead (probably) so he knows he can only save Maura. He'd save him if he could. I am 100% convinced and you can't change my mind about this.

Did Krester really blame Tove for killing the man, that attacked him and abused her?😐 (Yes, killing isn't good but how dare he to be so rude?? Especially since he was the reason. It was bad reasoning from the man but still.)

Krester's mom out there testing and stressing me. (She threw a boy out of the ship because she thought he was the devil. The way she treated her children, especially wishing death on Krester?)

Clémence is amazing. I would die for her.

Also, everyone is like Eyk+Maura 🥰 —Well everyone except me because my man (Daniel) is out there awake for at least 16 days (he must have gone through 2 simulations at least) just to help his love, who does not remember him.

Also theory: if Maura created this simulation, she also created that Daniel would come to help her get out of it. Because she trusts him.

And now my sore hate against Netflix for canceling this show (we got so many Riverdale seasons???):

This show has so much potential for a second season. I mean come onnnnnn. The show was so so good and it only had 8 episodes. Robbed.

Did we got robbed of the hot villain brother that is keeping his sisters in simulations solely because he hates her? Yes. I'm convinced that we got robbed. (I do think he hates her, because on the envelope to Maura, he wrote Henry and Maura stated that he used to call her like that because he hated her.)

Maybe he doesn't want Maura to suffer but their father. (Wow, I just realized that could have been another option)

I do think the spaceship is another simulation because of the triangle in her eyes and (I might didn't notice) Daniel wasn't there and he said a minute before, he would be there if she woke up. Always.

I felt like everyone else was there except him (—and maybe that's because of my bad eyes—) which is fine because he wasn't supposed to be on the ships either.

I feel like we could have seen a traumatic flashback from her father and brother in the second season.

All I want is for Daniel and Maura to find peace again.

Please.

Also, I wanted Tove, Clémence, and Maura to team up and being absolutely badass. Got robbed.

Everyone did such a good job with this show, the actors, the creators, the camera staff, the post-production staff (special effects, etc.). Everyone except Netflix.

The plot is amazing and there is so much left to unpack and I'm really devastated that we won't see all that “glowing up” for another season. :(

Now a poll because I am finally able to make on😁:

#1899 #1899 netflix #krester 1899 #ramiro 1899 #1899 series #1899 spoilers #daniel solace #maura franklin #eyk larsen #daniel x maura #why did netflix cancel that fucking amazing show???#poll #I can make polls now I feel so unstoppable — watch out netflix
