#Ted Lasso #Rebecca Welton #Hannah Waddingham #*mine: gif #*mine: nonsense #*mine: TL theory #parallels #this is the thing I forgot about these two episodes and is hitting hard today #also are both these titles card game related a bit....I mean two aces but maybe the way you signal too #wait wat also forgot the bit that Rebecca wearing pink in S01 and the light blue in S02 in these scenes #something something red and blue of it a bit....since Ted in S01E06 is in red...#never not deep diving with this show and the part of me that wants to argue that The Signal technically was E05 but Christmas episode...#anyway I'm trying too hard to interact in places and I hate myself for that #it's just better if I ramble to myself in the tags here and I know that and I really think before posting on other places #there's also my ramble about the connection to Amsterdam with Rebecca with the Dutch saying Ted hitting his head after that #that wee bit of maybe the houses alone the canal on Higgins' mantel in S01E09 and my theory that maybe Higginses had their honeymoon there #end it with S03E06 with being in Amsterdam and Rebecca falling into the canal #I've been having these thoughts connection for a while bit you know #as always I need to walk to the nearest body of water and whatnot....#me @ me you're not that clever but damn do you think it is. you alone idiot.

“What’s happening is Joel’s having a panic attack. And he doesn’t know why. Panic attacks feel very much like heart attacks. It’s your body telling you you’re in terrible danger, but you don’t understand yet why. And so much of what this episode is about is Joel coming to terms with how terrified he is suddenly. That she’s going to die and it’s going to be his fault.” (Craig Mazin in HBO’s The Last of Us Podcast)

Poisoning the Well

Poisoning the Well (S01E07) is a Beckett-centric episode so we get less interaction between Sheppard and McKay.

It is noticeable at the very outset, though, that they are getting to know each other pretty well. Sheppard is able to communicate a complex idea (this culture is clearly more primitive than ours but they are so proud of their accomplishments and we are trying to make friends so you need to curb your need to be right and just go with it) to McKay just by saying his name using a certain voice. Sheppard has his back turned so his tone of voice is actually the only cue McKay gets. This suggests familiarity.

However, it's actually more striking that McKay actually seems to understand John's meaning. Just in the previous episode, Childhood's End (S01E06) McKay seemed unable to understand that when someone asks whether he has chocolate on him, they actually want to have some. That is, he has trouble understanding social cues and interprets things very literally which is on par with fictive representations of geniuses.

This tells us two things: 1) Sheppard has observed McKay enough to be able to anticipate what he's going to do (cf. previous episode for Sheppard keeping a keen eye on everything Rodney does) and 2) McKay must be trying really hard to understand Sheppard, which is something he would not normally bother doing.

Further, Sheppard keeps exhibiting signs of attraction. He seems to sense McKay's movement behind him (physical awareness), his eyes automatically go to him, he aborts the movement once he catches himself but then looks anyway because it would be silly to keep himself from looking at his entirely platonic team member.

Also, McKay places himself close enough to touch and not only does John pull away, he pushes back into him (accidentally-on-purpose-touches).

He glances at McKay when he thinks that he's not looking:

In the episode, we are once more reminded of the importance of looks and subtextual information carried therein with this exchange:

Weir: Major, have you made any progress with your prisoner? Sheppard: Well, not yet, but he just blinked. McKay: He blinked? What does that mean? Sheppard: It means he's still holding on but he's indicated to me that he may break soon. McKay: And he indicated this to you by ... blinking? Sheppard: Yes.

The episode also marks the start of Sheppard antagonizing the wraith by giving them human names. He later names Todd after a pale guy a knew in college which makes one wonder if all the names he comes up with are from people of his past. One would venture that he would give the wraith names of people he didn't particularly like but then, there is this strange erotic undertone to his taunting of the wraith. Could the sources of the names be exes or former crushes?

Further, when they're walking side by side, Sheppard actually turns his entire body toward McKay:

Also, while the licking-his-lip thing seems to be a nervous tick, something that Sheppard does when he's not sure what to say or to deal with some emotion (here, McKay reminds him that he's the one responsible for waking the wraith), he does it twice here in very short order. One of them was wraith-related, the other was purely McKay-related.

Also notable: John clearly blames himself for waking the wraith, and he could easily have interpreted the look McKay throws at him when the topic comes up as blaming him. But once alone, McKay actually tries to alleviate Sheppard's obvious guilt with "You haven't told them that we practically woke the Wraith from hibernation, have you?"

For a socially inept dude he certainly is able to pass as a human being for this man and this man only.

Also, this exchange:

McKay: Reminds you of Area 51, doesn't it? Sheppard: Circa 1918. Ford: I don't think Area 51 was around in 1918, sir. Sheppard: Well, the area was.

Commenting on a topic that you hope will interest your crush. Teasing reply. Someone else jives in, you do a complete 180 to defend the comment of your would-be boo. This is textbook stuff.

There's innuendo in Sheppard's "Weapons come in all shapes and sizes, lieutenant," especially as it is paired with a shot of a phallic vial being handed to him with a suggestive look from the chancellor with a drawled "Major Sheppard, I think you'll find this intriguing."

Through Sheppard and McKay's discussion with Beckett on the planet, we establish that when someone is not a part of the military, Sheppard can't give them commands. For some reason we, as the audience, really needed to be reminded of that during this time.

This episode also marks the start of several references to Star Trek. It's actually Sheppard that brings it up with "He's worse than McCoy!" completely unprompted, albeit Rodney seems to catch the reference right away. Over the seasons we see further examples of Sheppard revealing what a complete and utter geek he is where McKay just keeps not noticing this fact in spite of their frequent geeky conversations. Also, since Beckett is Bones, and McKay thinks that Sheppard is Kirk, although it is never mentioned, that probably would make McKay Spock. Kirk and Spock being the OG sci-fi television relationship with homoerotic undertones, which were also more or less confirmed by the creators.

According to creator Gene Rodenberry, "I definitely designed it as a love relationship. And I hope that for men… who have been afraid of such relationships… that they [Spock and Kirk] would encourage them to be able to feel love and affection, true affection… love, friendship and deep respect. That was the relationship I tried to draw. I think I also tried to draw a feeling of belief that very few of us are complete unto ourselves. It’s quite a lovely thing… where two halves make a whole."

The introduction of Perna is interesting. When she arrives, Sheppard's gaze first completely slides over her, finding the back of Beckett's head to be more interesting. But a polite fellow, he introduces himself in response to her introduction with a polite smile, then turning to introduce his team and when he's about the introduce McKay, Beckett chimes in, obviously captivated by her.

He's looking at her intensely, starts macking right away. And it's only then that Rodney jumps in with what can only be described as a need to compete with Beckett for the attention of the lady. And John seems pleased as a peach when the Hoffan scientist only seems to have eyes for Beckett.

They are in contrast. Sheppard is uninterested. Beckett is immediately and completely taken. McKay's interest is perfunctory. The pretty lady is the trophy of a competition that he just lost.

Perna and Beckett get real close, real fast working side by side together. While this is obvious to the audience, since it is taking place between a man and a woman, the romantic nature of their relationship isn't actually explicitly stated. It is played out through gazes, positioning, intimacy of their rapport. We naturally read this as romance. Everything that takes place between them also takes places between Sheppard and McKay, only spread over several episodes. It's funny how that is.

Fic: Relax

Read on Ao3

Fandom: The Last of Us (HBO)

Ship: Joel Miller x you (cishet f reader)

Tags/warnings: Soft!Joel, Acts Of Service Joel, pregnancy, implied sex, mention of panic attacks, JOEL IS A SOFTIE, SAPPY AND SOFT.

Summary: Joel just can't seem to ever relax, not even when he's settled with you.

Words: 971

A/N: Look, I can't be the only one who after this week's episode (S01E06) just wants to give Joel a simple and safe life </3

The front door opens, letting in Joel and a cold, snow-filled gush of wind. A shudder runs through you and you appreciate even more that you don’t have to be outside on a night like this but instead right here: in a sturdy, warm house, on a comfortable albeit rundown couch, a knitted blanket thrown over your lower body, a fire crackling merrily in the fireplace.

Joel stomps the snow off his boots and walks heavily up to the fireplace, crouching with a groan to release the load of firewood that he fetched. He immediately puts on particularly large log on the fire, then has to take a minute before he braces his hands on his knees and pushes himself up. You hear the crack from a joint, and put down your knitwork.

”Joel, please come and sit down, you’re working yourself too hard.”

”I’m fine,” he reassures you as he walks back to the door and kicks off the boots, hangs the coat up. A lot quieter on his feet in the thick wool socks you’ve made for him, he sneaks up behind the couch and bends over, kissing the crown of your head.

”You need anything, darlin’? Drink? Snack?”

”I need you to come and sit your ass down,” you tell him, reaching your arm back to grab the front of his sweater, giving it a little tug. He finally surrenders to you and comes around the couch, lifting your legs out of the way and placing them across his lap once he’s seaten.

”There,” he rolls his eyes at you, ”I’m seated. Now what?”

”Now you relax,” you tell him slowly, picking up your knitting needles again. ”You do know how to do that, don’t you?”

”No, I don’t,” he shakes his head seriously, but there’s a smile tugging at the corners of his mouth.

”Well, you need to start learning,” you rule, counting stitches before starting another row on the baby coveralls you’re working on. Joel runs his hand up your calf, knee, thigh, stopping at the swell of your belly.

”With this one arriving so soon? You won’t know what relaxing is once they’re born.”

You smile as you deftly work off the knits, glancing up at your husband for yet another quip, finding instead that he’s looking like you in That Way.

He’s always done it, even before he confessed to having feelings for you. After you became pregnant, he did it even more often. That look of infinite sadness, his eyes so despondent that it brings tears to your own, that way he looks at you like he’s already lost you.

”Joel…” You put down your project again and cover his hand with both of yours. ”Sweetheart. I’m good. We’re good.”

”For now.” He still can’t believe it, you’ve been safe in Jackson for years now, Tommy and Maria and their two kids next door, electricity and hot water and a friendly community, and he’s still expecting it all to go away.

”My brave man,” you sigh, scooting up, taking his hand and pulling him to you. ”Come here.” You rearrange yourselves, the blanket changes places, and Joel’s resting comfortably with his head on your shoulder, his arm coiled around your belly.

”My protector,” you mumble, stroking his gray hair. ”You’re going to put yourself in an early grave with all your worrying.”

It took him a long time to figure out that he didn’t actually have heart problems: he had panic attacks. They were easier to treat but harder for him to accept than an actual heart problem. Go figure that it would turn out that his heart is strong and fucking bleeding. All the things he’s done, failed to do, lost… he has told you everything, in the dark, entangled, only able to communicate to you in quiet whispers about his life leading up to the day he met you. All of that has made his heart so very strong, his self image so very weak.

”Too late for me to have an early grave,” he mutters, slowly caressing your bump. ”I’m an old man, darlin’.”

”Back in the day you wouldn’t call a man under sixty old,” you scoff. ”You have lived two lives, baby, that’s all.”

He grunts, but you feel him unwind in your arms. Him listening to your heartbeat always calms him down. You kiss his forehad, breathe in the smell of pine and snow on his hair.

”I need you,” you tell him in a whisper. ”You need to be here for me. For us.”

”I’m not going anywhere,” he promises, lifting his head to look at you. ”I need you, too. Both of you. You’re my everything.”

”And don’t you forget it.”

He shifts, mindful of your belly, and realigns himself so that he can kiss you.

”I love you,” he murmurs against your lips, the words a soft and balmy contrast to the sharp prickles of his facial hair. ”I love you so much.”

”And I love you, Joel,” you smile as his hand gently cups one of your breasts. Joel starts to scatter tender kisses down your neck, finding the first button of your flannel and popping it open, revealing a bit of cleavage. Your skin breaks out in gooseflesh when he presses his bristly face in the cleft between your boobs.

”You’re not relaxing,” you remind him, failing spectacularly in trying to sound stern.

”I can stop,” he quips, undoing another button. You exhale in a little whine as his lips brush over your nipple.

”Besides,” Joel muses without looking up, his breath hot on your budding nipple, ”you’re the one who never puts down your work. You’re always handling wool or yarn, or knitting… Maybe it’s you who needs to relax?”

He has a point, you have to give that to him.
