Prevent. Protect.

Sometimes, at night, i am lulled to sleep by the knowledge that Shawn Spencer would kick bbc Sherlock’s ass

oh to be a pretentious jerk, with your uncomfortable companion, bent over a crime scene, making wild claims and refusing to elaborate while belittling the on scene detectives., , and then to have some random guy come in and do those exact same things but with Panache and Nuance and a Flair for the Dramatiqué and also everyone loves him and also he’s faking being psychic which is one of the most infuriating things you’ve ever encountered in your entire comically British life 

b i am asking for your hand in marriage. blease i love you so much

"The creator definitely didn't put that much thought into it" well then clearly someone else has to and I think I'm the weirdo for the job

The great thing about Gus is that he perfectly oscillates from playing the annoyed straight man to Shawn’s general insanity to yes-anding to an insane degree. For every moment where he says no Shawn, you did not hear that both ways there’s a moment where he, with no prompting, claims that his fictitious grandmother with a broken hip was teaching a line dancing class. For every time he says Shawn, stop messing around at work, there is a time where after Shawn says he’s been “looking at the man in the mirror”, Gus, in a move that never ever fails to make me laugh, with a completely straight face and no impact on the conversation, does the Michael Jackson “he-he”. He’s insane. He thinks he’s normal. He does 11 point turns. He’s a sympathetic crier.

Still in awe of how well the D&D movie mimicked the feeling of D&D without doing anything as tediously literal as a "sitting around the table" framing device. The way some characters have names that sound like names a DM improvised on the spot, the sudden appearance and disappearance of a overpowered DM NPC for a single dungeon, the way they used the fact that characters can plausibly just mess up for no clear reason to escalate action scenes...that was cinema

Also the tragic backstories that clash noticeably with the goofy tone of the actual movie and are related in full at inopportune moments. And the fact that the DMPC is the only one with a backstory even SLIGHTLY connected to the main plot. Plus the fact that every character is a subtle representation of a DND player trope - Edgin is an extensive roleplayer who barely even uses his bard abilities and just talks his way out of every situation he finds, Holga is a wargamer who's just here to kick monster ass and barely talks about her character (to the point that her tragic backstory comes completely out of nowhere as though the DM shoved it in), Simon is a newbie who doesn't really know how the game works and has picked the most complicated class there is to start off with, and Doric is a rule-of-cool action hero who thinks the limitations on wild shape are Dumb and Stupid and the DM begrudgingly indulges her because what she does is in fairness much cooler.

Digging into the Holmes timeline for Reasons and the fact that “a combination of events, into which I need not enter” caused Holmes and Watson to leave London literally DURING Oscar Wilde’s trial for “gross indecency” (aka having a boyfriend)….. Doyle was friends with Wilde…………..I’m connecting the dots
