OH YEAH OK HI that is the highest fandom honor i’ve been given since being dubbed the campaign manager of the hoodie heathens hahahaha

ANYWAY I’M SO GLAD YOU ASKED ME THIS BECAUSE I’VE BEEN ITCHING TO TALK ABOUT IT. YOU BETTER BELIEVE I WAS SHAZAAMING THAT SHIT AS SOON AS THE INITIAL THRILL OF THE TRAILER ITSELF WORE OFF (took a good... 12 replays but then i got down to good girls soundtrack-related business.)

ok so! a mini review/reaction for you:

song #1 (0:00-0:16): kinda boppy (which you kNOW i love), but it felt... off to have that played over the flashback of lucy getting shot?? weird vibe. otherwise i liked it with the initial set up and the beth-fading-into-panic moment! (note: couldn’t find this song)

song #2 (0:17-0:55): gettin boppier with a little more banger?? INTO IT. classic good girls vibes for me. i think it’s just a generic like... royalty free manufactured-for-tv/trailers song though? (it’s called ‘op en af (up and down)’ and it’s credited to the record label extreme music, which is known for making tv/film/advertising music!) 

song #3 (0:56-1:45): less boppy, more banger!!! ALSO INTO IT. especially love the bit playing over annie saying ‘i don’t even know who we owe at this point... the hitman, homeboy’ that gets reduced just clapping over a bass beat (sounds v good with headphones, fyi). and the slow-mo shots of rio’s hands?? hhhh anyway, i was a lil bummed to find it’s another song made by extreme music (this one’s called ‘wolves teeth’), only because i’d 100000% be into it as a standalone song. the charm is kind of lost on it being filler music, i guess?

so, the short answer is ... YES the trailer songs are hittin’ for me! it makes me feel good about the overall vibe we have going into s4. i wish they weren’t made-for-tv songs, but i can get past that. and honestly, it makes perfect sense to use royalty free music for this. overall, i don’t want to set my expectations too high after s3′s soundtrack falling flat for me though! (i just really miss those crime-focused bangers, y’know? that said, i still have faith in jonathan leahy to get us back to that level.) 

My! Baby! Oh my gosh, thank you.

4. a headcanon to spite canon, specifically

That his siblings worry about him.

It’s not an easy point to come to, right? Because by the time Five comes back, it’s been 17 years since he left and they’re so used to him being gone, have already grieved him, compartmentalised him away, that him showing up out of a rip in the sky the same age as when they last saw him - - it’s not easy to process, right?

And maybe they’re getting there, but then a week goes by and everything changes again, and it’s months, years, depending on who you talk to before they see him again, so when he reappears this time it’s just like - - another day in the revolving door of Five, right?

And okay, so maybe Luther has to remind himself that Five’s survived what he has sometimes, and Diego that Five’s too damn stubborn to let anyone get one over him, and Allison that Five isn’t actually thirteen (he’s not, he’s not, he’s not). And Klaus sees him and sees addiction and nights too close to the end, and Ben thinks he was what broke them first, and Vanya would agree, but these days all she sees is her brother, and are they a family yet?

God, she wants them to be a family.

13. their happiest memory

It’s something small really. Something silly and nothing, but it was the one he’d circle back to again and again in the apocalypse, and all it is is being home alone with his siblings, a movie they all pretended they were old enough to watch on TV, and he can’t even remember what it was – The Exorcist or Poltergeist or something like that, but he remembers them all inching closer together. Remembers being nine-years-old and feeling like there was nothing in the world that felt safer than being with them.

Remembers being 58 or 13 or whatever age he’s supposed to be now, and feeling it still. 

that was a good tag. a v good tag

Lmao AMAZING.

well the shirt in and of itself is extremely slutty if only because (1) it’s wide open and (2) implies that the man is always in beach mode no matter what and the shirt just clinches it so now his feelings are on the outside

also: spiderweb and flame tattoos directly on top of each other? sure, chief / TIGHT. everything is tight / hey Teresa here is my million dollar home it is yours now / when he had sex with Teresa for the first time it was in part because he was sad (he’s always a little sad) / JAVIER / took his clothes off in front of a flaming trash can

oh, sorry, my tags were super unclear, haha. i was disappointed that rio didn’t make a comment that beth grew out her hair/listened to him when he told her not to cut it, because i do think beth’s hair seemed longer in season 3 than in the previous seasons? particularly since it was curled and i think had it been straightened it would’ve been a lot more noticeable? i know that’s made it into a lot of fics as just like, this super small thing that she was unable to do just because it reminded her of him, and i would’ve loved rio to bring it up somehow—if it had been snarky or angsty or mean, i would’ve loved it even more!

i actually really loved how much i felt their distance and the absence of touch between them in s3. s2 is so delicious, but i love angst and s3 delivered—so i think it’s honestly my favorite version of brio? i’m still not over how long it took rio to even show up at her house, and it’s the main reason i think he knows about the hitman (i mean, he’s avoided it for that long, so why suddenly appear that that moment?) i also pointedly remember the few times he did touch her—which, besides the juxtaposition of the harsh threat with the soft hair graze in 3.02, was mostly condescending? off the top of my head i can only remember the finger to the arm in 3.05 and clapping her on the shoulder when he met with her in the bar in 3.07. 

:O

So there are only two options available:

1) Rio and Annie go shopping together

2) Rio saw Annie’s jacket and thought wow I MUST get me one of those (but in one of the only two colours I acknowledge, obvs)

and honestly I’m not sure which I enjoy more?

Also never forget Rio and Stan sharing the same jacket:

(Oh and Kenny also having a bomber jacket with an arm zipper)
