Misplaced Targets

Let me preface this little review/commentary by saying, I am in 'carpe diem' mode. I don't know what the future will bring, and it's increasingly clear that trying to imagine it is futile based on partial information. So. Lucy was in episode 2x13 - and I very much enjoyed that she was in it. Let's discuss that. And some parallels. 😄

AJ & Kai I was not a big fan of this storyline initially. It didn't really explore the ties between AJ and Kai or the past friendship, and it looked like Kai was pretty fast at turning his back on his former friend and thinking the worst of him. AJ, with his particular brand of charming casualness and flippancy, was growing from annoying to irritating as a character. So, I definitely did not see that plot twist coming, and even though it left me a little confused regarding what AJ did and did not do, I really liked it. AJ went from irritating to oddly sympathetic, and it was impossible not to feel something as he went off the rails after his wife got arrested, and more so as he denied trying to kill anyone.

Kai & Jane The Jane/Kai relationship/bond was a big part of the first half of season 1. I didn't miss it, exactly, but I was very happy to see it back. Jane, as a boss, remains a boss - and by that I mean, her mix of firmness and warmth and care is endlessly impressive to me, and I really enjoyed all the different notes we got in this episode. I think you can tell a good episode when it sparks conversation - and this episode did that. I went from a little annoyed in my first seeing the episode at Kai not heeding Jane's instructions to a realization in my second, more careful watch, that he just kept getting stuck in the wrong place at the wrong time through no fault of his own. I feel like everyone was very true to their characters and this contributing to everything going wrong until it went right is not something I want to unpack as meta right this moment 😆 As for parallels, Jane offering a drink to Kai at the end and checking up on him was reminiscent of 1x11 and also 2x11 when did did the same with Lucy, then Kate. In all cases, the person had had a brush with death/injury. I love, love that this is something she picked up from Maggie, and that she's able to keep the good from Maggie without letting it be soured by the bad. I feel like that's a really hard thing to do, but what a great thing to highlight.

Jesse & Ernie This is another one of those scenes that I wasn't expecting, and made me feel like I didn't know to wish for it. I very much enjoyed it. I love what they've done with Ernie this season - maybe starting back to mid-S1, actually. Where they are using him less as comedic relief and adding layers and depth to his character, taking advantage of what a fantastic actor Jason Antoon is. I'm not sure what's in store for Ernie, but that felt like maybe the beginning of something, and if so, I am excited about it.

Hina I love her. Please, more of her. She was hilarious throughout this episode, and I just generally love her nonsense vibe very much. I don't know if there's any way they can make her feature in the show more, but I very much would love that.

Dalia Also love Dalia. Really hope she comes back as a guest star. I'm really glad to get closure regarding her relationship with Ernie as well, which felt like a ball they dropped in S1 a little bit, or rather, left unresolved.

Lucy & Ernie This is one of my favorite dynamics in the show, I'm sure I've mentioned that before. I loved that scene. I assume Yasmine and Jason were both talking to a screen but the rapport felt exactly the same as when they're actually acting off of each other in person. Jesse being jealous that Lucy doesn't video chat with him was a cute moment as well.

Lucy & Kate I'll admit, having Lucy video chat Ernie but only interact with Kate on the phone feels like a bit of an odd choice. This coming after months (in air time) of no Kacy, I'm loathe to criticize it, but it felt slightly off to me (though I can't pinpoint what, exactly). It's hard to have the same energy in a scene when not being physically in the same space, and I feel like Tori maybe did slightly better at that than Yasmine (but Tori had had practice with the second-hand updates). It was still very cute, and I still get a bit of a thrill every time Lucy calls Kate, 'Kate'.

Kate Kate looked incredibly good and confident both on the field and off. I didn't know I needed her to arrest someone, but she's definitely grown as an FBI agent, hasn't she? Love to see it. That said, that's the second time a member of the NCIS team yells at her because they're freaking out (after Jane in 1x13) and while I can appreciate the parallel, and where the characters are coming from, I don't like it. Wish there was some apology though realistically there's probably not enough time for it. I know I've said it before, but I'm so, so impressed by Tori as Kate this season.

Lucy I have missed Lucy so very much. Agent Afloat Lucy Tara was seriously impressive once she actually had something to investigate (I did head-canon that Lucy would complain nonstop if bored, so definitely laughed in glee at her complaining to Kate). And it's been my wish for S2 to see Lucy grow. And, I have to admit, I both saw her grow and didn't, and got the same feeling you get when you haven't seen someone in a while and you start noticing the differences. Confidence is sexy, but so is competence, and Agent Afloat Lucy Tara had both in spades. She aced this investigation, and did so, imo, in a completely believable way. She's clearly picked up a lot from Jane, and her asking to talk to XO Ramirez outside felt like a throwback to Jane doing the same with Milius in 1x01. I also love that she remembered everything Petty Officer Gattman had told her, even though it looked like she was only half paying attention to what he was saying. As for her picking up clues and figuring out the patterns, we've seen her do the same in 2x04, then in 2x07. I miss Lucy kicking butt, but would lie if I said Lucy's intelligence is not my absolute favorite thing about her. She's a hell of an investigator, and that's all I'm going to say about it. 😊

Special mentions Shedunit: This is the second time in the scope of 5 episodes that a black lady turns out to be a villain. What is up with that? The directing: Loved all the close ups, and the close ups of Yasmine/Lucy especially. This one may be my favorite shot:

(That's saying a lot in an episode where absolutely everyone looked stunning.)

NCIS Hawai’i 2x13

One of my favourite things about this week’s episode is that, without Lucy around, they put Kate back in high heels. 😂

I kinda wish they hadn’t given us the Kacy scene as a sneak peak, since that’s pretty much all we got of them - it got my hopes up! It was a sweet scene though and I do love how supportive Kate always is when it comes to Lucy and her career.

I’m glad they gave us a glimpse of Lucy’s life on the boat. I’ve missed her! I loved seeing her get excited about her own investigation. And I liked the Lucy and Ernie video chat too, I miss their friendship and banter.

I liked the resolution to Kai’s storyline. I wonder if it’s a complete resolution though, since AJ wasn’t responsible for all of the things they accused him of doing? Also I liked the moment of tension between Kai and Kate. it felt different to all the times they used to argue with her in season 1 when she was on the outside. This felt more like the kind of fight you’d have with someone you know - with family, which we all know Kate is to them now.

We might be missing a Kacy reunion but it’s going to make it all the sweeter when it finally happens.

Clark: i lost my powers

Clark: gets punched halfway through a wall by bizzaro!Lana

Also Clark: walks away fine and dandy

Also Clark: casually chit chats with his half bro in space

Bro, are you sure you lost your powers? In 2x13 the DOD literally said his cells looked as if they were HUMAN cells and then in the last two episodes, his MOM said he was completely drained of solar energy. And that he’d need to store/gain it again as if he were the infant he arrived on earth.

#dc #dc comics #clark kent #superman #tyler hoechlin #superman & lois #superman and lois #kal el #I mean he would at least have some broken ribs?#I literally winced when I watched that scene #and then bro just gets up and chills with Lois five minutes later #lmao #I’m sad why is this finale the way it is #at least the cgi is good

a severely delayed reflection on 2.13 bc its been in my drafts for months and I dont want to delete it

you know what would have made that ep better structured for me?

the gunman is real. Tommy has to deal with the fact that she brought him in there and the guilt of potential harm. much of the first scene in the hospital plays out the same as she diffuses the situation and gets the others to leave. stays to handle the machines. evaluates the kid and decides that she’s going to believe in him, even though she knows theres no hope - but shes desperate to save someone today. she needs a miracle, to feel like she could do something to help someone. she and the gunman dont cooperate with the swat team.

another patient left behind in the ICU goes into a medical emergency which Tommy manages to handle - just. she saves a life, but not the one she thought she could. she realises that indulging this guy and his denial is a danger to people - the doctors and nurses need to come back and take care of their patients and focusing on those theyve lost is endangering others they can help. she’s faced with the father’s denial of his loss and she has to begin to process her own, but it’s in a detached way, like she knows it rationally but it hasn’t hit her emotionally yet. she talks the gunman down, empathising and commiserating but explaining that he has to come to terms with his grief and harming others in the process is not the way to do that.

the kid doesn’t miraculously wake up and the father begins to accept his loss - he says goodbye to his son, the swat team take him away, and Tommy finally breaks down as the emotional weight of her own grief hits her.

(alternatively the father continues to deny his loss and we have that contrasted with Tommy finally breaking down as she accepts hers)

#a has thoughts #episode chat 2x13 #911 lone star #tommy vega #i realise the other patients were probably evacuated but shhh #if lone star can write in contrivances then so can I #anyway yeah there were good bits in the episode #but I struggled with the structure and pacing #I realise that this is sooo fucking irrevelant for many people but I didnt want to delete #its been sitting in my drafts for months

OG 911 Character Details from Canon Pt 2

Hi y’all I’m back! I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who reblogged the last details post - I sort of just thought people would like it and it would die, so to see it travel and hopefully reach more writers was so great so thank you again!

Details under the cut since I went a little crazy 😅 and if this is your first time seeing this, the first part, and any future parts, can be found under this tag here!

Quick note before I get to the details - always, ALWAYS take details from dialogue or plot over details from the set or props if they contradict each other. The writers have the ultimate say over what happens on the show/for the characters, so whatever they say goes, even if it goes against something props has already laid down (eg, Chim’s birthday, sorry Libra crew. He’s an Aries or a Pisces). So keep that in mind for the future in case some of these details I have which are from props/set are changed in the future, or if you’ve noticed something yourself!

Also if you have questions, I am MORE than happy to answer them, although if you leave them in the tags on this post I’m probably gonna lose them, so if it’s something you’d genuinely like an answer to, drop it in my inbox! Besides my standard “ask” tags, I’m also tagging asks about canon details with this tag here. Every time I make a big post like this, I’m going to link all the asks I’ve gotten since the last post, but if you’re looking for more info in the mean time, that’s the other spot to look!

Buck has a grill on his patio.

Eddie doesn’t hang Christopher’s art on the fridge - instead it is either hung on the corkboard in Chris’ room to the left of the door, or Eddie puts it in an actual frame and hangs it using a hammer/nails in Christopher’s room. All the Diaz family has on their fridge is a bunch of bendy people magnets. (I absolutely ADORE him putting all this effort into treating Christopher’s art like it’s something you’d buy from a professional artist).

Info on everyone’s ages can be found here. (Little more discussion of Chim’s situation here).

Albert has a bachelor’s degree! I don’t know in what though, except that it’s some field for which is a Master’s is useful.

Athena was in a sorority in college, Delta Sigma Theta. Their website describes them as “ ...a sisterhood comprised primarily of Black, college-educated women ... [that] considers the issues impacting the Black community and boldly confronts the challenges of African Americans and, hence, all Americans ”, which I love for Athena, and feel is very in-character for her at that time in her life!

Chim is an aviators dude. When he wears sunglasses, they’re always aviators.

Athena also wears nothing but aviators.

Bobby wears square aviators.

Eddie, on the other hand, always wears Wayfarers.

Buck either doesn’t really like sunglasses or he constantly forgets he owns them, since we’ve only seen him wear them once in 60 eps, in a move I’m pretty sure was ONLY for dramatic effect.

Hen’s sunglasses change style over the seasons like her regular glasses do, but she tends to like browline sunglasses.

Info on Christopher’s school can be found here!

There are two colors of dispatch polo, and there doesn’t seem to be any rhythm or reason for who wears what. Maroon - Maddie and Linda. Blue - Josh and May. Jamal has actually worn both maroon and blue, so it doesn’t seem to be TOTALLY set in stone although I’ve never seen anyone else switch. Sue is too badass to wear a dispatch shirt.

Both Bobby and Eddie drive 4 door pickups. Bobby’s is navy. Eddie specifically has a black, 2020 GMC Denali 1500 pickup truck (in case you want to specifically look up what the inside of it looks like or what features it has 😂)

Info on the 118’s medical certifications can be found here.

Correction to Eddie’s living situation from last post: no next door neighbors, but instead UPSTAIRS neighbors. (Pointed out by Abigail in this ask). Also since someone else was wondering the notes of the last post - no, there is absolutely no discussion on the show of whether or not Eddie rents the apartment or owns it. But based on the fact that it’s 1) LA and 2) an apartment, my guess would be he rents it.

When Maddie isn’t feeling like herself, she tends to straighten her hair rather than curl it. It seems to be more when she’s uncertain about her place in her own and other people’s lives, rather than just when she’s simply worried - eg it’s straight in 2B, when she’s uncertain if she wants to continue working as a dispatcher/is unsure about her relationship with Chim.

For work, Chim, Eddie and Buck all use black duffel bags with a LAFD patch on the top. Hen uses several different cute bags, and Bobby seems to have a plain black duffel bag.

Watches - Bobby, Athena, Chim, Hen and Buck all wear their watch on their left wrist (but Athena ONLY wears hers for work, she takes it off at home.) Eddie wears his on his right wrist, and Maddie doesn’t wear one.

Chim (and Maddie by default) literally still have the exact same couch as in the pilot. (Which means that Chim has cuddled Tatiana on that couch, AND Albert has had sex on it. TIME TO GET A NEW ONE, BUCKLEY-HANS 😂)

The 118 has five different rigs - the engine (E118), the ladder truck (T118), two ambulances and the captain’s truck. 95% of the time, when the team is chilling in the cab of a rig and chatting (eg the ‘stuck under a live telephone pole’ scene in Jinx), they’re in the engine, not the truck. (Which I personally learned recently are NOT interchangeable terms!)

Athena and Michael got married when Athena was 37.

If you’d like to give Maddie a full name beyond “Maddie”, you should use Madeline. (I know, I know, in 4x04 she says Maddie is the name on her birth certificate, and that you should never use props details if they contradict script details, but I always thought that was a super weird exchange in 4x04 which could be explained by Maddie getting a nickname since she was born when Margaret and Phillip, you know, actually loved their kids and showed it, so of course Buck doesn’t get one, and in 4x04, Maddie was trying to avoid the entire issue of why she got one and Buck didn’t. But! Do what you want, and use Madeline as the full version of Maddie if you’d like, since that’s what’s on the BOLO in 2x13 😂)

Athena’s call sign is 727 L30, but she doesn’t have a specific squad car - the number changes throughout the series.

Chim really likes chewing gum, but he’s the only one out of the entire family!

The station has an Xbox One S, and it’s white.

In the real LAFD, there are stations 1 through 114. To avoid confusion while filming on the streets (I’m assuming), our fictional LAFD never uses the number of a real station. So if you want another station for a fic, and you want something that would be real in OUR universe, use the numbers 115 and above. They’ve gone as high as 221 in our universe.

Battalions - station 118 is in Battalion 7, which is also not a battalion in real Los Angeles. The 118 has interacted w/ Battalion 1, which is a real battalion, but other ‘non-real which makes them more likely for our universe’ battalions include numbers: 3, 8, 13, 16, 19 and above.

S1 Buck knew the term Jedi, but based on context, didn’t understand AT ALL the context provided by Star Wars, so there’s another edge of his pop culture limits for you.

Chim is the most tech-savvy out of everyone, hands down.

Athena has a VERY active Twitter account.

Abuela’s house number is 8902. I don’t have a street name for you unfortunately though. :/

Athena’s favorite flowers are white roses. None of the other women are really flower people.

Michael likes to wear purple.

When they’re at a call, Buck does pretty much all of the stuff with the hammer and the saw. Eddie does all the work needed with the drill.

Harry goes to Meadowbrook Elementary.

Buck lives on the fourth floor of his apartment building, across the hall from Apt. 416. The lovely @lovelessmotel found this listing for what is more or less the apartment. What happened was: the set crew rented this apartment for the one episode at the end of s2 when Buck moved in, and then over the summer before s3 built their own set of it, and changed some things - eg giving him an island, and moving the sink to a second counter against the far wall, you can see the changes here in this amazing gif set by the awesome Austen, but the listing should let you click around a little more upstairs and figure out dimensions better than what the show provides!

When Athena and Hen go out to eat together, it’s always fast food burgers and fries.

Waffles are Athena’s favorite food, and tiramisu is her favorite dessert.

Every takeout we’ve seen Buck eat has always been in a Chinese food takeout container, and we know he likes Thai food the best. EXCEPT! The one time we see him eat takeout with Eddie and Christopher, they have pizza. So take from that what you will......

Eddie has a cell phone and a landline.

Chim is a shameless multiple texter.

Chim and Bobby sleep closest to the door in their respective bedrooms (both right side of the bed if you are standing at the foot, facing the headboard), and Athena and Maddie sleep furthest away from the door (left side).

Some canon last names for other firefighters at the station in case you wanna add more people to a fic - Mitchell, Sanchez, Serrano (woman), Porter, Meyers (woman), Maxwell, Voyta

Hen and Karen really love decorating their house with dark/red wood.

Karen is Mommy and Hen is Mama.

Bobby has a brother, and a grandmother, and that’s literally ALL we know about his family outside of Marcy and the kids.

Evidence points to Eddie being the oldest child in his family.

Karen has multiple brothers (no sisters), but no idea how many - just that one of them is named Trey, and one of them lives in LA and has kids. They might be the same brother and they might not be.

Both Hen and Athena are only children.

Athena has been on the police force for 30 years.

Christopher and Denny are the same age (born in 2011), and Harry is two years older than them.

Michael lives in apartment 308.

The bank in this universe is CalAm.

Hen and Karen have a picture of Denny, May and Harry on their fireplace mantel.

Eddie having a black thumb + a lot of plants in his living room = him buying fake plants bc he likes the aesthetic ™ or someone (cough Carla cough) is taking care of them for him.

The COVID timeline in OG’s universe is fucked up compared to the real world’s, so it shouldn’t be used as a way to measure time! They just throw it in wherever it makes sense for the story they want to tell (eg the vaccines in s4 ep 8), since s3 was both done before COVID hit but also airing while it was happening. It makes absolutely no sense for May to graduate in March nor for Chris to be going to what is specifically labeled summer camp, and the vaccine plotline was INCREDIBLY early, even for real life, so don’t use anything from that as a measure of time. I’ve found except in specific examples, eg the two tsunami episodes, it’s very safe to say every episode covers a week - fall holidays on the show line up with their real life counterparts, indicating about the same amount of time is passing for us and them.

On that note - Jee-Yun was born in late January, early February 2021. (Conceived in Pinned, which was end of March/beginning of April, meaning Maddie was around a month along at May’s graduation in May ➡ 42 weeks + 3 days from then = late Jan/early Feb. Which unfortunately means we most likely won’t see her birthday celebrated on screen. If we assume she was conceived on the date Pinned aired, aka the very sexy hotel scene, then January 21st or 22nd would be Jee’s birthday, depending on if she was born after midnight or not.

Buck has had at least one other Jeep between the one Maddie gave him, and the one he has now, which means that when he needs a new car, he is purposefully choosing Jeeps.

I hope this was all as interesting/enjoyable to you as it was to me! And just to repeat - I love answering questions so pls let me know if you have any at all ❤

I was tagged by @bathroombreaks @bethsuglywigs @bourbon-ontherocks to talk about ‘Choose Your Own Adventure’ (haha thanksss ya’ll)

So, I had always wanted to write a camping fic because hello, Brio stuck together on a camping trip? The possibilities for snarky shenanigans were endless!

Of course, this was way back when I first started writing, when I was still a traumatized bitch who couldn’t write Brio in canon because of The Episode That Shall Not Be Named.

So, this was originally going to be an AU because of the aforementioned trauma, but I received a lot of really lovely encouragement from a mutual while talking about how I was feeling brave enough to possibly make it canon divergent instead (and also how I desperately needed to figure out how to actually write a one shot haha)

I knew when I was planning it that I wanted the context to be in a school setting because I wanted Beth in PTA mama mode and Rio in dad mode and for them to see each other in that way.

And then the really tricky part was picking which point in canon to work from, since this was preseason three and at that time I couldn’t imagine writing them post 2x13.

I wanted them to be in a semi-good place because this was also going to be mostly fluffy (I needed healing!), so I decided post ‘Dubby’ but pre ‘Dean is the fucking Devil’ was the perfect timeline to place them in!

Again, at that time I’d never written a one shot before so I was kind of struggling with keeping the word count down and not breaking it up into chapters. So, I decided on writing these little snapshots of moments throughout the camping trip, rather than one continuous story.

Again, I’m not sure who has been tagged for what, so if you see this and want to chat about a particular fic, please do and tag me!

- rules under the cut -

”recently I have become really fascinated with fanfic authors and what exactly was rumbling around in their brain that inspired a fic?

Was it a line of dialogue you couldn’t get out of your head?

A scene you wrote WAY in advance and then crafted the whole story around?

An image in your mind?

Inspiration from another form of media?

Maybe someone suggested something to you and it just TOOK off from there?

What is the root of your fic? The cornerstone -what is it all built around? The idea that started it all?

Tag an author & their fic. Let’s hear about what sparked your story. What exactly got your booty movin’ shakin’ motivated and writin’”

2x13 The Last Dragonlord

I really appreciate that this picks up 2 days into the dragon's scourge. We were shown that Merlin knew what would happen if he set Khilgarrah free; he chose to do it anyway. There was no reason to pick up ten minutes later when everyone is scrambling trying to get a defense together while Uther demands to know how he got free. The little time jump that puts us right into the thick of it was exactly the right creative call imo.

Why IS the dragon going after Arthur? And how does nobody hear him yelling at Merlin about his magic?

Arthur taking off his gloves and sitting down in a pained relief while Uther goes off about 'rid ourselves of this aberration' is a mood. He's fighting off a damn dragon all night and then doing admin all morning while his dad is there all fresh and clean and conveniently ignoring the fact that it's HIS pet that's got out and is murdering people and destroying the castle. Like how about you do whatever you did to capture it in the first place, again?

Lol @ Gaius 'Bee tee dubs I've known who your pops is this whole time, he's not only alive but also a Dragonlord, which isn't something I thought fit to you tell you in all that time you were having campfire chats with the great dragon Uther's kept chained up in the basement for twenty years! Safe journey!'

Wtf with Arthur's magical moving bed. What were they thinking with that staging. Also, this is why you don't throw pillows at ppl. He throws his pillow at Merlin and now he must lay there pillowless.

Merlin's known his dad for five minutes and he's already lying to him about his boyfriend.

Balinor said, 'let Uther die, let Camelot fall' and Merlin is like, disappointed? But wtf did he expect? Dude lives in a cave cuz Uther's pursued him so far in an attempt to rid the world of Dragonlords. Like why would his indifference shock you?

Arthur's just blatantly flirting with Merlin in that campfire scene.

Merlin wins the award for 'most awkward and drawn out familial confession ever'

I do feel for Merlin. He's so awkward and hopeful and clearly romanticizing the perceived 'missing piece' in his life/upbringing, as tho it were a magic fix for everything that's ever gone wrong in his life. It's painful to watch, partly because Colin plays it so well.

Arthur and Merlin were gone for at least as long as the dragon had been attacking Camelot when they left. At the point when they retuned Camelot would've been under attack for the better part of a week. Kind of shocked Uther didn't have a bunch of knights turn deserters, thinking Arthur's been sent away to preserve the royal lineage.

Arthur's just blatantly flirting again. It's hard not to think he's being so free with his affection because he's fairly goddamn certain they're both going to die. I guess the argument could be made that facing a dragon who is literally burning your castle down around you might've just put things in perspective for Arthur - but really, I doubt it. They're heading back to a Camelot that's been under siege by an unkillable, fire- breathing, flying beast, for days, after having left the only man on earth who could've saved them, who refused to assist them. And Arthur is sitting there downright giddy teasing Merlin. That, my friends, is the *true* face of defeat. The further example is when Arthur is suiting up to go try and fight the dragon in a clearing outside the castle, and he's like, sort of trying to say goodbye to Merlin but also kind of flirting and playing up their usual banter - it's gallows humor, clearly. And the way he melts and doesn't even put up a token objection when Merlin says he's going with him. JUST MAKE OUT ALREADY but it's very much like that absurdist - I don't want to say nihilism, but essentially, acceptance that the odds are overwhelmingly NOT in their favor, and that they're probably going to die and nothing can be done to save them or Camelot. Once you reach that point, you've really only got two options: a) die mad b) live. Arthur really seems to be taking the latter approach, and I'm here for it.

Gotta admit, it was very courteous of Kilgharrah to come meet the knights in that clearing instead of just flying over them to take another pass at destroying the castle with Uther inside it.

That dragon said 'tonight, I'm have bbq knight'. Also I've always kinda given them shit because Leon supposedly went out with them for this, and all the knights lined up to get flambéd yet Leon is ever present in following seasons - but if you actually watch carefully it's Arthur, Merlin, and another knight that get knocked off their horses by the dragon's tail. I may or may not have rewound that part half a dozen times just now to be sure. Looks like two knights on the ground unconscious by Arthur's side.

So. Okay. I understand finding his dragon voice and I understand the whole inherent- language thing, I understand Merlin showing the dragon mercy and letting him go, I understand everything said between them and that's all fine. What I don't understand is how in the holy hell Merlin let him go without demanding answers. Answers to why he wanted to destroy all of Camelot, when he'd spent the last however many years helping Merlin save it, and save Arthur, in order to bring about their destiny. Answers to why he didn't just fucking kill Uther, why attack the lower town? Why attack Arthur who again, he'd repeatedly helped Merlin save, because he's supposed to bring peace and magic to Albion etc? Like HOW IN THE FUCK are you really just gonna let the fucker fly off without explaining himself? Maybe it's just me.

HC: Arthur was so relieved and elated when Merlin told him he'd dealt the dragon a mortal blow, Merlin came over to help him up off the ground but Arthur pulled him down and rolled him over in the grass instead.

Uther watching from the window like a maiden in a tower 🤦‍♀️ get fuuuuuuucked

Big season finale and no commentary track? 😕 probably cuz it was too gay to ignore the gay so they thought it best to just not say anything.

DVD extras in lieu of commentary track:

My favourite part of any of these BTS things are the little tidbits about the horses. And the terrible jokes.

I'm a little bit freaked out by how much Johnny Capps looks like my city councilman? I've never seen him before. If he was in the first season's extras I didn't notice him.

Why is "Cast and crew introduction to S2" on the last disc of the box set?

Googling instead of watching and I've discovered these guys did Atlantis after Merlin, which is a show I randomly started watching and fell in love with and was devastated when it got canceled so quickly.

The "secrets and magic" special feature seems to be an episode-by-episode BTS thing, which I wish I had known earlier as I would've just gone back and forth to watch the feature after the corresponding episode. Since it's too late for that now, and the runtime for the entire feature is nearly three goddamn hours, I'm just going to slog through one single separate post for the entire thing. It'll be posted late tonight or tomorrow. But I'm 1000000% checking the S3 extras BEFORE I start watching the season.
