open the window and yell

an underappreciated genre of hawkeye is when an activity requires no hawkeye and he's kind of just lurking and pissing everyone off

I think I've figured it out. During the Trapper and Henry years, no one was pretending to be nice (except for Frank, that one time "it's nice to be nice to the nice"). No one is actually claiming to be all that good of a person. They may be better surgeons or better than that guy, but they're not *nice*. But BJ thinks he's nice. He thinks he's a good guy. A good husband, a good doctor, a good person. And people (the characters) buy into it because they want to; they want the nice guy unsullied by this absurd war. And BJ doesn't handle it well whenever he might have to admit he's not nice and maybe never was. Because what good is nice in a war zone?

my mother is like not super huge on gay people by any means but she is so close to being a hunnihawk shipper. she said they're always touching because bj is hawkeye's "spouse" and hawkeye looks so sad when margaret and bj dance on bj's anniversary because he wanted to be the one to dance with bj . and like yeah obviously but how do YOU know that

I love it when my notes randomly explode and it turns out people have discovered this gif again. It’s like yes!! Hawkeye is Still being insane about BJ!! Thanks for the reminder people on tumblr!
