Wait…Agents of Shield came back? When?!
That’s kinda the point hehe – it hasn’t, not in the UK at least.
Unless you meant in the US in which case it was December 1st. It wasn’t supposed to be until January but I did read (no clue if it’s true) that because the Inhumans bombed they brought AoS back early to try and make up for it.
I am getting so fed up of Channel 4 not airing Agents of Shield Season 5.
You have the rights to it – air it!
Honestly this is why people pirate. Making them wait months and months in a global connected world is ridiculous. I mean I don’t pirate a) because I don’t know how and b) I’m too afraid of getting caught but man the frustration is real. I just want to watch!
There are all these amazing gifsets on my dash and I try and blacklist for spoilers because I don’t want every little detail spoiled before I can watch BUT quite rightly fans don’t consider things spoilers after a few weeks. It’s impossible to avoid unless I avoid the entire fandom and I don’t want to do that. I love this show and I want to have it on my dash and in my life.
Sorry for the rant. I know it’s a silly thing to get irritated about, it is after all just a TV show, but ugh I had to vent somewhere. Silly or not, it’s really bugging me.
As a side note it’s the same with Killjoys. Season 3 aired last summer, but netflix UK won’t put it up until this summer probably – a whole years delay. I could list many more examples but those are the two that I really care about right now. /grumbles it’s not like it has to come over by steamship /grumbles.
Ant-Man and The Wasp trailer just dropped.
Spoilers and speculation abound. This is all tin-foil hat stuff so it could be complete rubbish – it probably is but it was fun to think about.
I had a really cool/weird dream last night.
It started off with the Rumbelle family with imp!Rumple in this realm. They were married, and had Bae, Gideon and a younger sister. Then Agent Phil Coulson of Shield had to arrest Rumple for a crime he didn’t commit.
Coulson tried to be nice about it but there were listening devices all over the house, he said it was for the families safety but they didn’t trust him – Rumple was innocent!
Then the dream morphed and I was in a bar with Peggy Carter. I spotted this guy about to shoot her so I started to throw things at him – pens, a stapler, desk stuff that came to hand. He started shooting at me and Peggy took him out, then says that I saved her life. I said I didn’t really do anything and then … the next bit is a bit fuzzy but it’s the 1950′s and Peggy decides I need a makeover. I wind up in a dress and heels! (neither of which I would EVER wear) and I say that I can’t walk in heels, so Peggy tells me to run instead – I’ve now been made an assistant Shield agent.
Again it’s a bit fuzzy but then we’re at the 12th precinct but it’s still the 1950′s, and I’m going undercover as Castle’s new partner, as Ryan, Esposito and Beckett have to go somewhere on this old wooden plane. There’s some banter between Ryan and Esposito as Ryan doesn’t think he can fly the plane. We see them off and then start investigating … something?
Anyway, a bit later Castle realises what he had seen but not noticed – that the plane was sabotaged. That’s why I’d been put undercover. We try and get hold of a phone to call the police but nobody has one. For some reason we’re on my old street and knocking on all my old neighbours doors doing this. So we run all the way to the police station instead and tell them that they need to contact the plane before it falls out of the sky. The uniformed cop grabs his radio and goes “Mayday, mayday” and then says “ah wrong radio” then someone comes in and says there has been an explosion.
Cut to Castle sprinting across this open field, wooden debris everywhere, fire lighting up the night sky going “my wife’s in there!” and then Beckett, Esposito and Ryan appear out of the smoke, a bit grubby but unharmed.
Then I woke up 🙂
#i haven’t even watched castle lately#seriously i don’t know what my brain was doing last night
Awesome Day One of my “reading fanfic on the bus” experiment worked well. I downloaded half a dozen fanfics on my TBR pile off AO3 onto the kindle ready for today. On the way in I read a one shot and made notes on my phone for writing up as a comment when I get home.
Hopefully this will continue as I feel really guilty how little fanfic I’ve read, and how I’ve barely commented in months. You guys are fabulous and deserve all the kudos in the world.
I just secured a new tumblr URL.
I know, I know, I said I would never change because URL’s are like an identity. When people change their avatars it confuses me enough, I’m definitely following some people and I suddenly look one day and I think “who are you?” as they have changed their URL and I didn’t notice at the time.
So I’m going to be a total hypocrite basically. I think the URL is too cool not to use and so yeah basically I’m going to do it 🙂
The second Fitzsimmons Secret Valentine is over I’m going to change. Sorry in advance for being annoying.
wizzygold replied to your post “I just secured a new tumblr URL. I know, I know, I said I would never…”
…let me know the new one so I don’t get confused ��☺️
Of course 🙂
I will do those post things with the >> to indicate change and I’ll put on my byline who I used to be and basically try and be as helpful as possible.
Heya!!
Yeah my weeks been alright. Not sure where it went, I feel like I blinked and missed it but thank merlin it’s Friday heh 🙂 I hope that you had a good week and that you have a brilliant weekend!
I rather suspected with my prompt that it suggested a non-Shield AU. I am sorry for that if you’d rather have written something more canon. I’m not very good at thinking up prompts.
Anyway I think it sounds awesome! 🙂 I mean it’s Fitzsimmons and it’s got a happy ending right? So what’s not to like? 🙂 I hope you have fun with the ideas!
Oh yes – on both counts actually.I planned that fic the way I plan a novel, which given that it probably would have been better (and less rushed) if it was novel length kinda made sense. I did a full timeline, scene by scene outline etc. To make sure I didn’t mess up and have it be day/night at the wrong time.
You have no idea how tempting it was to go ‘off book’ and veer off the outline. I had so much more I wanted to do but that was an RSS fic so it had a strict deadline. It was getting on for 30k I think when it was done anyway, so I really didn’t time to expand it. The outline helped me get it done, I don’t think I would have managed otherwise.
I have twice as many posts in my drafts waiting for me to tag and add to the queue, than I do in the queue /facepalm
I thought we weren’t doing this again self? #sam is lazy
I’m not tagging this for Star Trek: Discovery spoilers this time because I got a one word “goodbye” reply on my last one which felt passive aggressive. Me being me then thinks I’ve done something wrong and … I digress.
this wasn’t the gif I was looking for but it will do.
The Stamets and Culber gifsets are killing me!!!!
Honestly I am not ok!
Anyway, I still haven’t gone back and watched the rest of the episode after I got confirmation that Culber was dead. I did read an interview where the actor who plays Culber said he was ok with what happened and “would return” as it was part of a bigger arc.
Part of me now just wants to watch because it’s Star Trek and it’s shiny.
The other part of me doesn’t trust it, and remembers how I forced myself to watch all of Star Trek: Enterprise which after a promising start went so far into my NoTP I had to watch through my fingers going “no! no! no!”
Just because it’s Star Trek doesn’t mean it’s automatically good.
Besides if Culber just appears as Stamets true love in dreams/hallucinations I think I might bawl everytime he’s on screen. It’s so not fair! So him returning while it keeps their love story alive, is still unbearably sad. Short of raising the dead I’m not sure how Star Trek can fix it.
Crying forever…
