#flashbacks to episode 5

[sskk-manifesto]

People weren't kidding btw they did unapologetically use all of this season budget on the old men yaoi

#What did I just watch #The flashback scene was. SO cute. They were both absolutely adorable and the animation was so pretty #AND THE CHERRY BLOSSOM SCENE???????? My God... #That sequence of the (important: heart shaped) cherry blossom petal falling- #had more budget than the entirety of episode three I'm not even kidding #The pretty animation of their hair being moved by the wind... That one sequence of detailed animation of Fukuchi's lips... I'm screaming #fukufuku #bsd #bungou stray dogs #bsd s5 #bsd season 5

Do you guys realize this was one of the only times we’ve seen Dazai’s thoughts??? I love how he is such an enigma most of the time, but when it comes to Chuuya you see the human side of him.

#i know bones likes to ruin these scenes #and the flashbacks weren’t great #but you can’t deny this #also applies to odasaku but I am grieving over soukoku at the moment so I only said Chuuya #bungou stray dogs #bsd #dazai osamu #chuuya nakahara #bsd anime #bsd chuuya #bsd dazai #soukoku #bsd season 5 #bsd season five #bsd season 5 episode 8

Well i was talking about towl fav ep and fav richonne moment but i want your thought on twd too now :)

thank you so much clarifying anon, and for the question! i think the easiest way to do this is to break it up by show.

towl

favorite episodes: I think it goes without saying that just like everyone else episode 4 is my favorite. it's a stand out not just for towl but for twd as a whole and is magnificent from start to finish. as for the rest? i have a lot of trouble ranking them actually because i love all of them for different reasons, but I guess my other favorites in no particular order are:

6 because it was just SO satisfying. that reunion seriously healed something in me. I love the flashbacks and how their pillow talk was incorporated throughout.

3 because it had me literally screaming at my tv and i love angst <3

1 because i didn't realize how much i missed rick grimes until i got him back, and i'm still so impressed by how much they accomplished in that one episode. also i think andrew lincoln was phenomenal and the ending was perfect. it gave me that WE'RE SO FUCKING BACK!! feeling that set the tone for the whole series.

favorite richonne moments:

the family reunion in episode 6 goes without saying right? it's all i wanted from the series and they gave it to me and it was everything

like, all of episode 4 lol but the standouts for me are "you don't have to thank me ever" (like, that whole sequence of him saving her) "the only time I feel safe is when I'm with you" (because i'm STILL reeling from that) the without you I die monologue obviously and i also really love the specific way rick's voice cracks when he says "you think I didn't want to be with you? I tried everything" and the way michonne's lip trembles in response. i talked about how rick is suppressing his emotions throughout that entire episode and that's one of the few moments he loses his composure - it's SO effective

the full reunion in episode 2!

rick putting the ring on michonne's finger MID THRUST. hello?

the proposal! his nervousness! her obvious joy and delight! i actually really love how light and funny they were all throughout episode 5. i re-watch all of those scenes a LOT

rick pulling his gun on thorne when she put her hand on her knife while interrogating michonne/rick stepping in front of thorne's gun when she had it pointed at michonne.

MICHONNE THROWING THEM OUT OF THE HELICOPTER

an underrated moment from the finale i really love is when rick grab's michonne's fingers when thorne orders them to walk with their hands up. i love that he needed that contact!

in the finale when rick says he just wants to go home. he wouldn't have, and they both know it, but i love that he was allowed to express that. AND i love michonne's reaction to it.

michonne dropping her sword (again!) when she thinks rick is dead

i really really REALLY love the dream sequences from episode one. it definitely felt like a huge fuck you to everyone who said they never would have ended up together if the apocalypse hadn't happened. like! sorry but no! michonne is rick's soulmate! die mad about it!

twd

favorite episodes: 6x10 the next world, 7x12 say yes, and 3x12 clear for obvious reasons. I also really love 6x09 no way out for having one of my favorite richonne scenes ever, 4x09 after, 4x11 claimed, 5x11 the distance for the amazing richonne build-up, 9x01 a new beginning (richonne just feel VERY married), 9x05 what comes after because i was tense and distraught the whole time even though i was spoiled for the ending, and 9x06 who are you now: michonne's grief is so palpable even years later, danai was incredible and that scene with judith at the end wrecks me. plus the RJ reveal!

favorite richonne moments:

"i've never seen your face like that before." listen. LISTEN. years ago i saw a gifset of this exact scene right here on tumblr dot com and it was so cute that i decided i would watch the zombie show if those two get together. and now HERE I AM. it's the scene that started it all for me, and it's still one of my favorites because it's so cute.

FIRST KISS ON THE COUCH. arguably the best first kiss of all time

all of say yes but SPECIFICALLY when michonne drops her sword, and how she jumps into his arms when it turns out he's alive, the panicked way she says "no no no" when rick tells her she could lose him. but also, how goofy and silly they were the rest of the time. they have fun together! they don't just love each other, they like each other!

THE END OF 6x09 WHEN RICK WALKS OUT INTO THE HERD. michonne loses her shit completely in a way we didn't see again until the bridge. nothing is more terrifying to her than rick (or her kids) dying, and that will always get to me. the way she was the FIRST one out the door once denise gave the go ahead? the fact that the ONLY thing that kept her from running after him sooner was the fact that carl still needed her? GIRL???

rick smiling at michonne and carl on the train tracks AND the "i'm okay/I know/how?/because I'm okay too" exchange also on the train tracks. i'm a 'rick fell in love with her on the train tracks' truther forever and ever amen.

that hug at the end of 7x10 and the little kiss on her forehead :)

"I'm still with you." everything about that scene is just the two of them saying "i love you" without actually saying it.

"we should go to washington" oh my god the look on her FACE

in 4x09 that whole sequence where michonne sees herself in the walkers, kills them all, makes the deliberate choice to follow the tracks and they lead her directly to rick and carl???? the way she LOOKS TO THE HEAVENS AND CRIES??? rick's incredulous laughter and "it's for you"? what kind of invisible string tying you to me-soulmate bullshit?

the 9x05 "do you know why i fell in love with you?" dream sequence

9x01 "how'd I get so lucky finding you?" the domesticity of that entire scene.

first meeting at the prison. it's SO charged and it's so amazing to re-watch that scene and be like rick!!! that's your wife!!! and again. towl just confirms it really WAS soulmates meeting for the first time. incredible!

#richonne #the ones who live #to reiterate. i loved *every* episode of towl. there is not a single bad episode. i even loved the jadis stuff in episode 5 #although i will admit they should have probably condensed the 3 jadis/gabriel flashbacks into one to help with pacing #also i'm sure there are a ton of eps/moments i'm missing from the mothership but these are the ones that stick out for me the most #answered

Mobius getting spaghettified infront of Loki after giving him a speech which is about to change Loki's entire life gave me Destiel flashbacks

#Loki watching jet ski selling Mobius through window in episode 5 also gave me Destiel flashbacks #why can't gays be happy?😭 #what does universe have against them? #or should I say multiverse? #in conclusion i am sad and bitter #i will continue to be so until marvel give any confirmation on Loki and Mobius's return #lokius #destiel #loki series #loki season 2 #mobius #loki

That scene was like 90% mobius good lord if they’re not canon after that I’m burning it all to the ground

#lokius #loki series #loki season 2 #loki episode 5 #loki #also wtf is that name I love him more than words can express #this is about the uh oh spaghettios flashbacks scene btw

[sad-emo-dip-dye]

Old man yaoi is IN

#it feels like they are giving fukuzawa dead wife flashbacks #also how many episodes are they doing cause I feel like the 2 fukus chapter was pretty recent #bsd #bsd season 5

[godofstupidsentences]

As much as I love Theo Raeken as a villain and in general s5, it would have been so much better if they had kept him being a villain a secret for longer

#like #I wanted to see if he’d get to fool me too #they could have revealed it a lot later #and maybe THEN give us some flashback of Theo doing his evil little plotting #so we could have felt all betrayed and shit like the pack #revealing it on the second episode was a wasted opportunity #theo raeken #teen wolf #teen wolf season 5

[crowleysfall]

I will never get over this scene

#captain you deserved so much better brb sobbing #someone sedate me #on another note i didn’t expect captain’s name to be that #i was thinking rodger or edward but this fits so well #i was his flashback was longer tbh #thomas getting a whole episode and cap getting 5 mins was kinda ridiculous #don’t get me wrong i love what we got but i wish it wasn’t so short #bbc ghosts spoilers #ghosts spoilers #bbc ghosts season 5

[bibiblocksberg1234]

Here’s some depressed Dazai drowning his partner (in case you were having a good day)

#that hurt #the flashbacks didn’t impress me #but dazai’s face expressions were great #good job for making me sad bones #look at him #he is crying inside #and I am crying with him #bungou stray dogs #bsd #dazai osamu #chuuya nakahara #soukoku #bsd dazai #bsd chuuya #bsd season 5 #bsd anime #bsd season five #bsd season 5 episode 8

[klanced]

honestly a part of me envies that you never watched past season 4 because you never had to witness the downfall and instead got to hear stuff out of context which sounds 10x funnier

it was very fun watching from the outside as people desperately searched for klance content because it was just like ummmm. erm.

#i watched a couple episodes of season 5 and 6 out of context. specifically the krolia and keith episodes. but other than that nada #it was very fun watching people react because they would post like they were dying but then the screenshots were like totally nonsensical #vylanka #ask #i know at some point they play family feud (no idea how that happens) #shiro is a clone sleeper agent (which i called in season 3 lol) and he & keith fight (no idea how that happens) #i think lotor died at some point but it's not 100% clear to me (no idea how that happens). also he is? or is not? redeemed?? (no idea) #they go to earth at some point (no idea why that happens) #adam dies (no idea why that happens) #allura and lance start dating? lance puts a bucket on his head?? (no idea why that happens) #ALLURA DIES?????????? (no idea why that happens) #lance is a farmer (no idea why that happens) #and that's basically all i know #everyone and their mother posted screenshots of the shiro & adam moments and the keith & shiro flashback so i guess i watched those eps als

One of the missed moments in Picard season 2, is after Seven gets re-assimilated they try to stop Soong's drones and it always felt like such a cop-out that once again the writers forget that Seven of Nine has engineering skills and can actually hack into things.

The bad thing about knowing a lot about a character in a crossover show is that -- you know the skills of the character.

It's like when Sam Carter moved to Stargate Atlantis and most of the problems that arose during her time in Command -- I can't help but think... but Carter can solve this, we've seen her do this a hundred times in SG-1.

It's the same thing during Seven's time in Picard season 2.

This part -- I appreciate what Raffi's doing but it's just out of character that Seven wouldn't suggest this too. I get that this could be a primitive system Seven's used to-- maybe but its still wires and computers.

But the director didn't even direct Seven to do anything to help Seven's just standing there

And just... Ordering Raffi to go faster and not helping with the electronics or the hacking???

In her younger days, Seven would be mixing it up and helping Raffi. Even Rios was useful in piloting a rogue drone to destroy another.

And Seven is just standing there as moral support and telling them to move faster.

It's so out of character. Every time I get to this part in the rewatch of season 2 of Picard... I just can't reconcile it. More than the part where Seven becomes a badass who kills in cold blood-- it is the part where Picard seasons 1 and 2 disregard that Seven is a scientist and an engineer. At least in season 3 Picard gestures towards that direction with how she helps with the nacelle dismantling, and how Titan is said to be a well-oiled and maintained ship, something a ship's XO has a direct hand in.

Seven of Nine is not just a badass action hero, she is canonically one of the smartest beings in the Trekverse. It's not an opinion, it's a statement of fact. Seven helped create the Astrometrics lab.

And helped develop the Quantum slipstream drive together with B'Elanna Torres that's now being used in Star Trek Prodigy's USS Dauntless.

But sure, Seven is just standing there.

This Seven:

Who was working in engineering despite being critically ill, and who would rather do something than nothing.

Is just standing there. Not helping.

Especially at this point in Picard season 2 when she's been re-assimilated. I wish Jurati!Borg Queen had placed Seven's implants in this version differently. It's not like the body Seven's has pathways for the implants. This isn't her body, this is President Annika Hansen's body.

We've seen that Seven can interface with computers with her assimilation tubules.

I make it work by rationalizing that despite looking similar to her old implants, the newly installed implants don't work the same as the ones she's had all her life.

And another way I try to work around it is that the computer systems are too primitive for her to hack even though the thing about Borg is how Borg can adapt to any system.

One other thing -- I wish again Seven had the space to really articulate how different it is for her to have a purely organic body. How, much she loves it-- the appreciation of color because her eyes and brain process visuals through a green filter. The sensation of everything.

It would also have been great, as I've mentioned in different posts if Seven also realized there were things about her Borg physiology she missed too: Eidetic memory, enhanced senses, enhanced strength. As well as the downsides of having Borg physiology: Susceptibility to the vagaries of technology, and how her joints sometimes misalign. Her different center of gravity without all the weight of the Borg implants and enhanced skeletal system.

Also, I wonder if Seven had any thoughts that they're trying to disable robot drones to stop an attack on Renee Picard when Seven used to be a drone herself.

#the season 2 finale #was very frustrating #as a seven of nine fan #star trek picard #star trek voyager #picard s2 #i really liked the first 5 episodes of s2 #and then the pace just slowed #to accommodate a flashback #to picard's bizarre victorian childhood
