the criminal minds reboot hits hard but not harder than whatever the graphics team had going on in 4x8 (masterpiece) like what is this?

hi! this is my nsfw blog. you can check out my sfw blog @gold-onthe-inside . but i'm rucha, i'm 21 and bisexual which means the two great loves of my life are spencer reid and alex blake (and occasional love affairs with emily prentiss). remember this is strictly for anyone aged 18 and above. any lower will be blocked. mercilessly. so, yeah.

The class dynamics of the Gilmore Girls fandom are so interesting to me. Specifically the way they view teenage Jess compared to adult Rory. There are a lot of people in this fandom who see Jess committing petty crime as a teenager (who was shipped off to another state all by himself) as the worst thing a person can do. But when Rory, an adult, steals a yacht all of a sudden there is empathy and they can understand her motivations. There are people who criticize this decision she made but they don't pin her entire morality to it the way people do with Jess. Is it that we spend more time with Rory? Or that she goes to "good" schools and comes from a "good" family? I have seen people give her more shit for dropping out of Yale than for committing a felony.

they way the town condemns jess for his ‘crimes’ is so funny and tragic at the same time. they have a town meeting about the chalk outline and police tape prank. he steals 500 baseballs which to me is hilarious especially when you consider that dean is probably in the baseball team. he gets in a fight with chuck presby and all we’re told about it is that chuck’s a jerk. oh, and he stole babette’s giant gnome, probably because he was bored and there was nothing to do in town.

the problem is, outside of rory and lorelai’s perception of him, we know nothing about jess. his relationship with dean seems on the surface to just be that he likes rory and doesn’t think she and dean are a good fit. but dean has a lot of red flags that even lorelai ignores. he’s clingy to the point of obsession. he likes the donna reed show. he doesn’t share a lot of the interests rory has. he gets pissed off that she’s prioritising college over him. in front of rory and lorelai, he’s the perfect boyfriend. but we know there’s another side to him, especially when he marries lindsey.

the point i’m trying to make is that jess only seems like a bad guy because it’s lorelai’s perception of him, when in fact, he voluntarily takes rory book-shopping and he buys her books he thinks she’d like and gives her notes in the margin. he gets along with paris, which dean never does by the way, and he seems to be good friends with lane and her band too. you hear them constantly referencing each other in their schedules but you never actually get to see them dating. paris and jess have all of 2 interactions, both where they genuinely seem to get along. he’s polite to emily and if he hadn’t been late or beaked in the eye by a swan, he might have even won her over. he’s smart and sweet and funny and it’s pretty much life that fucks him over. but because you don’t see the other part as visibly, it’s easier to condemn jess as being the guy that gets into fights and pisses off the town and broke rory’s wrist (which btw is not a big deal. it was a hairline fracture on her wrist and lorelai acts like rory lost an arm).

in comparison, rory is a good kid. everyone says it all the time. she’s nice and polite and bound for harvard and she’s a good student and is gonna be a great journalist. you know her potential, you know she makes good intentioned decisions most of the time. she tries to keep the peace between her mom and her grandparents. so ofc you see how she feels like her life is falling apart because her whole life hinges on that one thing she wants to do in her life and she’s struggling with it. it’s seen as a lapse in judgement. she made a mistake but she’s a good kid. she gets that leniency, but jess never does.

i swear to god s4e2 should not be as funny as it is

1. aaron giving his doctor puppy dog eyes to clear him to come back on duty

2. derek flicking spencer’s hair forward

3. “is there a parachute on board?”

“should be. they’re standard on all federal air transport.”

“maybe we can give it to the elephant in the room”

all of these moments are in the first 5 minutes of the episode please

i hate queues so much. gotta get my biometric scanned for college and everything about this queue is pissing me off. the girl behind me keeps bumping me. the guy in front won't pay attention to the line moving forward. people trying to squish in or asking people to save their spots. it's so hot and it's almost lunchtime and i'm so tired and hungry. if i don't get it done in an hour, i gotta come back tomorrow again dhakhskab

57, 41, 37, 18 for the fanfic writing asks, my love. ❤

18. do you enjoy research? which fic of yours required the most research?

probably the most required fic was for criminal minds and yes ofc i love research. mostly context for what they’re talking about and then diagnostics for mental illnesses and stuff. other than that ‘research’ is usually just looking for the right song that fits the time setting lol

37. what fic has been the hardest for you to write?

writing reader inserts and smut is always really hard for me. after that it’s fics with sensitive content so you have to worry about whether you’re doing it service or whether you’re taking it too lightly

41. who’s your favourite character you’ve written for?

ah, well, there’s two original characters (one published, one that’s not yet) and they’re both really fun to work with (read: traumatise). one is dr piper bishop who was a weird culmination of everything i wanted to be when i grew up and she’s easily my favourite to write for. the other oc is a gilmore girls character that’s still in the works

as for normal characters, i think it’s gotta be spencer reid, but primarily because it’s just cathartic to give him happiness for once (but if trauma is required, then to do it in a way that he can handle and to do it consistently). also writing for aaron hotchner gives me the giggles because i get to write him as a father having to deal with his adopted children and their shenanigans.

57. how conscious are you about including symbolism or foreshadowing in your fics?

uh, i wasn’t as conscious before mostly because i would just write sort of stream of consciousness for a long time before i actually started planning out my fics and storylines. so yeah, once i knew my storyline and how it was all going to end, absolutely i became more conscious of including foreshadowing. as for symbolism, i think i was always conscious ofthat? like i’d use recurring themes and metaphors a lot. like the idea of a character being like whiskey, hard to swallow but comforting you when you need it. or important ideas tied to a person that are reflected in their actions, then seeing the actions change to reflect the shift in ideas. that’s always been really important to me

thanks, love <3

i’m sorry but

derek hanging back after mayhem to drive aaron back to dc from new york

derek refusing to let aaron carry his bag

derek saying he’d rather annoy aaron for 3 hours than fly back

derek refusing to let aaron drive

derek saying aaron’s opinion matters to him

aaron saying i have and always will entrust [my life] to you

aaron wanting derek to trust him the way he trusts derek

aaron asking him if he still wants to drive

derek still driving him back to new york.
