i talk about television a lot!

[elapses]

On October 10th (ha. ha. haaaaa, I totally actually looked up the exact date) I agreed to watch Bones for veils. But on October 10 there was still television! Like, lots of it, as opposed to this minefield where we have a little bit more Friday Night Lights and a little bit more Chuck. And now there is not! So.


For a long long long time I was caught up in not shipping Booth/Brennan. I meaaaaan, they were kind of enjoyable to have on screen together, especially in a dialogue sense (dialogue/chemistry/Alexandra = OT3!), but they didn't have that something for me! Especially halfway through season one, when they were so intentionally throwing the UST in our faces! I hate that! But: a) I really liked the scene in 1x21 where he told her all the war things he hadn't told anyone else! b) and then in the next one I kind of enjoyed that he kept coming over with Chinese food in the middle of the night. Also that he figured out what was wrong with her before even Angela. OHMYGOD, why are they pushing all my buttons? c) she psychoanalyzes him despite the fact that she hates psychology? HA, what is that! d) they are smiley with each other! e) they are, you know, attractive! And I am historically shallow. Fuck.

I can't overanalyze them, I can't imagine them together at all, yet alone envision the paralyzing details that kind of engulf me when I really really love two people together (I am a nerd!) but. They are kind of lovely. There, I said it.

Also: David Boreanaz (besides having a last name that is incredibly easy to misspell!) makes really really adorable faces. And I can't decide who my favorite is! I am fond of all of the squints. They are weirdly adorable. And Hodgins is my favorite! He is so... annoying. It is wonderful.

Things that still kind of annoy me: the theme song, that one episode where Booth joins an FBI raid to save Brennan from Adam Baldwin while he is LITERALLY HAVING TROUBLE STANDING UP (stupid and dangerous), how easy it is to predict things, Angela's magic holographic computer (although I should be used to magic computers halfway through rewatching the first season of the X-Files for eyeinfbi, HA), Hodgins/Angela (it's so FORMULATED. you can see the writers being like "okay guys! let's hook them up! fun times!" BUT NO.)!

But whatever. I am having fun.

I REALLY REALLY DISLIKE ANGELA/HODGINS. there was this one scene in a season three episode where i liked them because the shot they were in together was pretty and i made an icon from it? but that is seriously it. the whole relationship makes me really kind of annoyed. lol bitter about angela/zack!

one day soon i will seriously make a giant office post. i want pretty pictures and maybe some flailing. i don't actually know if my flist even realizes i watch it? i forget if i told them.

you have actually watched a crazy amount since i last talked to you about it! 2x04 really creeped me out :( howard epps is crazysauce.

Angela/Zack WHAT. You are slightly crazysauce :( Ilu despite this.

YOU SHOULDDDDDDD. It's funny how we are totally aware of our fandom trading pack but the rest of the world is... not. You have been using Office icons, though. They might have gleaned something from that.

I'm actually even further than I was when I made this poast :( AND I HAVE FOUR BONES ICONS.

:D you should know by now of my wacky unconventional shipping! i used to love angela/zack because of how...idk, it always seemed like he wanted to learn things from her and i probably imagined a lot of it, but! they would have been cute.

i have already started planning it in my head :D:

\o/!!! i find 2x05 and 2x06 kind of boring :( BUT THEN I LOVE THEM ALL UNTIL 2X11. WHICH DAVID DUCHOVNY DIRECTS. they are a+++ until then and then i get...sad and bitter :( my life: so hard. I WISH I COULD STFU.

I do, hobviously, know this by now! But. I cannot see it. Sorry, bb.

\o/

I'm up through 2x09. Which was really lovely! I reaaaaaally want to see David's episode, ACTUALLY, but. Vivian's going to call me at some point to get ready to go out tonight and it doesn't feel like the right time. So I am really actually working on that X-Files fic. I'm not even just pretending to! It's kind of incredible.

Uh, the fact that I'm working on it, not the fic itself.

not many people can see the ships that i do! i do not mind.

i feel it is my goal of today to maybe get it done. I OFFICIALLY HAVE A PURPOSE IN LIFE.

2x09 really is lovely. and i find 2x08 really fun! AND IT'S SUPER PRETTY. i...really love undercover episodes. BUT IL DAVID'S EPISODE THE MOST OUT OF BASICALLY ALL OF THEM.

lololol. it is pretty incredible! and fantastic. i am sick of fic that is lame. I SHOULD PROBABLY FINISH THE YOU'RE FLIRTY TODAY ONE BEFORE YOU KILL ME. but i really want to make that post about the office now.

[elapses.livejournal.com]

You can make the post about the Office before you finish you're flirty today! I deem it okay.

I liked... the undercover part of 2x08 because I'm totally into undercover things tooooo, but. The case was really lame. I don't care about undercover boxing rings at all ever :(

THE FIC ACTUALLY HAS PURPOSE NOW TOO. Be proud of me! But also work on that Office post, because I will be a little sad if I have to go with Vivian before it gets poasted :(

\o/! i'm glad i have your approval. or i might feel slightly bad!

i never really pay attention the case. it's like arcadia!

I AM PROUD OF YOU. i will try! but it might take a while.

Someday somebody should write an undercover episode of something with a good case behind it ;_;

It's okaaaaaay if you don't. I'll have something too look forward to when I drunkenly stumble back come home.

i think they get too caught up in how fantastic the fact that they're undercover is.
