were y'all aware that andrew robinson kept a diary written in character as garak to help him develop his acting. were you aware he turned it into a full length novel and published it. were you aware the entire "diary" is actually a series of letters each formatted as "my dear doctor,"

just got to miller’s crossing in my first watch of sga and holy shit. i am going to break glass with my bare hands. do they even know what they did here with this episode?!?

ALSKJDHASF anon, u perfectly put into words how that episode makes me feel. absolutely the most INSANE 44 MINUTES OF TELEVISION I HAVE EVER WITNESSED. it's just So Much. they had to have known!!!

i love miller's crossing for what it says about john. here is a man who will do literally anything to keep a person he loves safe. even if it means convincing a man to kill himself. and i love how john's actual morality, as shown in this episode, stands in stark contrast to a "hero's" morality. especially because, alongside the viewer, i feel like some characters within the story can't help but perceive him as a heroic figure, or at least, someone who embodies a lot of the typical attributes. EXCEPT FOR THIS BLARING DIFFERENCE (which endears me to him greatly :))) he's willing to sacrifice himself for others, but not his friends)

and then, speaking strictly mcshep, that conversation they have when rodney asks john's permission to feed himself to the wraith???? like 1) what does it say about ur relationship that u feel like u need to ask john FIRST before u save ur sister's life???? 2) DO U REALLY THINK JOHN IS GONNA SAY YES RODNEY?? not to mention JOHNS WHOLE FACE THAT ENTIRE SCENE. opening his mouth, but being unable to say whats on his mind. using their respective ranks ("you wanna talk about chain of command right now??") to create some (any) semblance of distance between them so he doesn't have to acknowledge his feelings in the matter. or maybe because he just can't verbalize that he doesn't want rodney to die. or worse, he thinks his feelings won't be enough to change rodney's mind, and falls back on command structure as a last resort. either way u interpret it, its PAINFUL. so much pining repressed john.

and on rodney's side, that end scene!!! the way rodney wants to understand what john did and asks him about it. but doesn't push when he doesn't want to talk about it. and just accepts it as normal person behaviour, at least for john. the obliviousness!!! AND EVEN THANKS HIM?? RODNEY, THANKING JOHN FOR A RESCUE??? despite how objectively fucked up it was??? be still my heart!

the big moments are so Big but the small moments get to me too. like, john playing with madison for .5 seconds on screen KILLS ME DEAD every time.

its not only the penultimate mcshepisode in my eyes, but an amazing john sheppard character study, as well. so glad it made u as feral as it made me when i watched it for the first time 😂

Well, I think this is the last one for Basingstoke! Rachel Luttrell, in charcoal and pastel pencil. I need to go back over all of my portraits now and make any adjustments. And sort out my costumes!

i figured out why we don't like pete - and its not just because he "gets in the way of our otp" or because shes settling or whatever ship reason

she flinches. when he yells at her, she flinches. this woman, lieutenant colonel Samantha Carter, has stared down goa'uld system lords. she's decked ba'al, spat in (i think) apophis' face, taken the entire sgc back from hathor with only 5 other women - and she flinches from some douchecop. shes scared to turn down his proposal. sam carter isnt scared of anything - except the man she supposedly loves. shes searching for reasons to break up with him and she only does when her dying father points out that he can tell shes not happy. thats why we dont like him.

First you procrastinate on the task because it is not a big enough deal to get done urgently. Then you procrastinate on the task because it has become such a big deal that doing it is overwhelming. You would think that this implies a middle point where it is just big enough of a deal to get done easily, however the inherent perversity of the universe's causal geometry prevents this

My only real and valid writing tip is that you google every word you make up for your fantasy stories. That's It
