what if au where aneela and kendry end up raising baby dutch?

Ohhh, I don’t know, anon. On the one hand, awww, presuming it’s end of the series Aneela and Kendry, having grown considerably from when we met them, that would be such an improvement for baby Dutch over the childhood Khlyen did give her. But I did love grown up Dutch with Kendry.  It’s such a catch 22, without the suffering that made her, she wouldn’t be the person who then saves all of them in turn. 

But it’d have been so darling to see baby Dutch get the childhood she (and Aneela!) both deserved. They’d have been so protective! And if they were the people they are now, immortal, they wouldn’t even have to deal with training while also competing with her, as the Qresh seem to operate. Even those glimpses of a not very balanced Aneela with young Dutch were so lovely, to imagine them together with more support…ugh, the Lady and Khlyen have so much to answer for.

Which are your thoughts about Pam and Ellen on the finale of “For all mankind”? ?

Okay, I stayed up to watch this and remain unspoiled even though I have a work deadline tomorrow, so I have to sleep right after, but, let me post below the cut.

I loved it! I loved it I loved it I loved it. 

What a tense, good hour (and 15 minutes!) of TV, with all the various arcs, and this is the number one preference I have for a show, where it’s a well written well executed genre show with wlw part of it, they’re part of the main action, they’re there, they make an impact, as characters, and their relationship is given a chance to shine.

Ellen telling Deke had me already so hyped and then his reaction broke my heart, I loved Deke, my favorite guy on the show, I’m so glad he redeemed himself on that and I really will miss him so much, Marge realizing was so effective. But the moment they showed Pam watching, I freaking KNEW where they were going, to parallel her watching it unfold with everyone else, her always on the outside, I couldn’t have DREAMED they’d bring Karen in to bond with her and like, I’m so curious to know what it is she thinks after seeing Pam that emotional about it, like, does she suspect about Ellen or does she think Pam’s in love with Deke or Ed or Harry? 

I’m fine with how things were left, this is the end of season 1 only, there’s so much plot to go through, and they showed so much already, through both Ellen up there and Pam down there, this is what a bulk of the finale was focused on! To give their story that kind of focus, and that kind of sympathy!

And to end with freaking Commander Ellen Waverly (I’m not gonna use Wilson) as the lone woman on the moon, the female John Glenn/Ed Baldwin/Captain America type, I love that!

Hopefully on the next episode of for all mankind we see a worried pam since we have no idea what happened to ellen yet. I know they aren’t together anymore but i’m sure pam still cares a lot for ellen.

I was thinking the exact same thing, anon! I’ve watched that last scene a bunch of times, mostly for the tension ratcheting up, and then the Molly rescue, and it was certainly suspenseful to have TWO ships in trouble at the same time, but 24 literally went off screen and all focus shifted to 25.The last we hear of it is that it’s still all quiet and gonna miss the moon by a large distance and from that I’ve seen people say Ellen dies, which she might still, but she hasn’t yet, not in this ep.

If you watch the start, the burst of speed when the engine fires knocks her head against the console, presumably unconscious, and that’s why 24 goes silent. I expect most of the last ep to deal with her waking up and helping Deke, or maybe be helped by him if he’s able to get inside, and then they have to figure out how to either get to the moon after all or get home. If she dies, it’ll be in this ep (and obviously I hope it won’t happen).

And through that all, I better see Pam watching it unfold and be concerned as heck! Otherwise, what even is the point of it all.

hey! have you seen El Embarcadero (the pier) and if so, what did you think of it? if you haven’t i won’t spoil you other than to say obviously there’s some f/f content here ;)

I have and I’m intrigued but because I only watched it when the SBS version went up with English subs a little while ago, and s2′s so close to coming out, I’m going to wait to see what happens before getting super invested. I want to know how much of this is their interest in each other and how much is just transference. THAT final scene didn’t really answer that question.

I do find it very compelling, I love Alex and her crew, and I love her first meeting with Veronica, the connection does sizzle and totally explains why Alex just keeps on getting deeper in this, but. Oscar is so freaking present in everything. At this point, just a month left to see what happens. Plus, I’ve been keeping an eye on promos for next season and it seems like Alex wants to let loose a little, with other men, or maybe those are flashbacks, but definitely finally at least something happening with that cop Conrado. But there are still some scenes with her and Veronica, some where they’re arguing I guess in the close aftermath, some where they’re teaming up to I think investigate Oscar’s murder, and then also these bits:

Oh, unless you were talking about Ada, lmao. I actually like her as a character but I…am way more invested in Alex and Veronica.
