Don't know if anyone else has done this already but.....
If I had a nickel for every time Melissa O'Neil played a doppelganger version of herself in a show she starred in I'd have two nickels which isn't a lot but its weird that it happened twice.
It could also be noted that both of her characters have been kidnapped and ended up semi- adopting a kid. I think both characters have also gone undercover as their respective doppelgangers. So yeah, for two shows and characters that are pretty drastically different there are quite a few similarities between her two characters which I find absolutely delightful.
The other show she's in is called Dark Matter which is a sci-fi show. If you want, you can watch it on the CW's website for free.
Anyways Melissa O'Neil is a great actress I hope to see her in more stuff in the future.
so i started watching dark matter and as the episode's go on, all i can think about is that dr. doofenshmirtz meme of "if i had a nickel for every time [...] i'd have two nickels - which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice" because tamara collins is to lucy chen what five is to two and i love it sm ♡
I wrote a thing this year!! I revisited a fandom I've written before because I picked up a pinch-hit for DesertScribe. It was fun to return to some of my roots and it was nice to end the year on a pleasant little short story.
Dark Matter, Rated T, 2547 words. Warnings for some swearing and a hostage situation? I guess? Alternate self shenanigans, just a fun little tale in the middle of a heist.
“Do what you can to gain access to the station’s security feeds. If Wexler’s around, our worse halves aren’t bound to be far.”
With that, she skidded around the corner—and froze.
“Actually,” Portia Lin said, raising her pistol slightly, “you’ll find some of us are closer than you think.”
If I had a nickel for every time in a show whose name starts with the word “Dark” a genetically engineered woman with enhanced abilities and a kickass attitude who freed herself from a secret lab hooked up with an idealistic heir of a million-dollar company whose last name is the name of a plant… I’d have two nickels. But it’s still weird that it happened twice.
something something there are no answers but who would i be if you had not been my friend something who would i be if i had not loved you how would i know what love is and whatnot

My friend likes fruit.
I'll offer him a spare orange I keep on me,
and he will jab his thumb into the peel,
leaving the flesh a jumbled mess.
My friend doesn't peel oranges the right way.
That was his words, his nails were too short cut to cut through the skin,
his hands not 'dainty' enough to separate the pieces,
he never did like things he couldn't do well.
My friend doesn't like the way the pulp stuck to his hands.
I wasn't ever opposed to getting my hands dirty,
so I'll peel my orange as best I can, letting the white stringy bits fall off with the exterior,
and he'll toss the scraps in the bin.
Since my friend likes fruit,
I'll cut the orange in two halves, one for him, one for me ---
it's hard for me to give my all for things,
though I'm trying to give my all for him.
Even though I cannot do much, I can still peel oranges.
The tips of my fingers can worm their way above the flesh without harming the fruit,
I can share half of my time, my routine, my life,
I can still be the person who peels your oranges.
