April has some of the best lines on the show. I’m still laughing about her making up the perfume thing and then smiling while telling Hannah B & Ezekiel to get breath mints (we all know who she’s thinking of) and someone on tumblr really said that april speaks like a repressed renaissance lesbian with the whole fait accompli and patula thing lmaooo can you please gifs april’s lines on the show? I would really appreciate it

Hey, some of us regress to old-timey overly literary kinda European to COPE, okay! 😛 

She really does tend to do that, lol, I hadn’t really actually made the connection till you pointed it out, but yeah, like using philandering instead of cheating too. It’s definitely funnier and probably actually has a legit connection to her diving into Christian scholarship, partly because she’s an intense nerd and partly to escape Other Things, but if it’s just a character choice because it’s funny as hell, I’ll take that too.

I’ve added it to my list to gif but probably won’t get to it for a while. 😡

andy/quynh is truly the most devastating and delicious pairing I can imagine; rly wish that we could see them overcome quynh’s 500 yrs of water trauma but man…. that might be too much to come back from. even tho all i rly want is to see them happy together!! pre-water andy/quynh is peak tho, can u imagine, 2500 yrs of beautiful partnership where they kill warlords and save innocents and just EXIST w each other … hurts to think ab

Ughhh, you’re right, for millennia they had that eternal happy ending you want for other ships. And then, taken away from them! And instead…this. I dunno how, but I so want them to come back from the torture too, like what’s the point otherwise??? That the totally undeserved and incomprehensibly cruel suffering others inflicted on you will break you and that’s just that? You may get a few seconds of redemption at the end if you sacrifice yourself or something? No! Happy ending or nothing. :<

Is it just me or was one of the TBH writers a Gilmore Girls fan and April and Stirling their shot at writing that Rory Paris fanfiction come to life they always dreamed off

To be honesttttt. Maybe? 

I mean, really, the good girl with the great family who everything seems to fall in place for, including the academic accolades, and then the strident rich girl with the loveless home trying to compensate by being super ambitious and overachieving who people don’t warm to and who resents the other girl for seemingly easily getting everything she had to work so hard for? I don’t know of any screenwriter for a girl-led TV show now who wouldn’t have at least watched Gilmore Girls, soooo. I mean, we’re joking, but like, it’s possible, it’s so tropey and fun and right there. I cannot believe the journey they went on, canonically.

Wrt to jodie comer it’s only from like certain angles or expressions lol but something about her eyes and nose or something like that was really striking to me ?

And another anon:

omg I totally agree with the anon saying april looks like jodie comer! imo she’s like a mix of jodie and mandy moore! (also can i say blair sometimes reminds me of… blake lively???

There are two of you who think this?? Have I just forgotten what Jodie Comer looks like? Do I…even know who Jodie Comer is? I just–I–maybe. Certain features, I guess, if you focus on them specifically. I don’t think they’re the ones I’m focusing on! Lol, but I mean, sure, who am I to say anything either way. The Mandy Moore addition, definitely can see that.

Blake Lively and Blair…I see why you’re the one who agreed with Jodie Comer anon. 😛 But no, I don’t NOT see it, but hilariously, I see Anna Kendrick way more? At this rate, we’re gonna go through all white actresses.

YES, god, that dab. i was watching that with like an anticipation for a fight with the mom or something so i was like very serious. and she dabbed, and believe me when i say i cHOKED my way into laughing! this show, man, is so ridiculous in a very endearing way.

Right, it was like, oh, this is gonna be uncomfortable, and a little scary, just how mad is she, and then

EVERY SINGLE TIME I see it I start laughing. It’s so random and half-hearted and dumb. Lord, Sterling.
