I know y'all are way too locked into your fandom and shipping echo chambers because several people complained about Five and Lila's naked fight scene the same way they complained about the Handler flirting with Five and talking about how sexy he looked in shorts...Y'all just don’t interact with the general fandom and block everyone because they don’t like what you like then pretend stuff didn't happen.
Hello anon,
I thought I asked this question in form of a question. If I did not I am sorry, but it was actually a question.
And great that some had a problem with it, that's fair.
I do not think it was out of character for Lila to fight naked (she is a assassin and sometimes it's fight or die and the state of you having clothes on or not does not matter to the person trying to kill you) to be honest, I think it was not out of character for Five not to care (like I said he is an assassin too and opponents do not care how you feel about a fight, they just fight you).
I do think (maybe somebody has the the behind scenes for this specific moment in the series) that the actor portraying Lila was actually NOT naked while fighting. Please correct my with your source material, if I am wrong. Thank you!
And the way the Handler touched Five was fucking creepy and I hated it, but that's why they did. To show us that the Handler is .... I can't even find the most fitting words for her to describe my hate for her = THE CHARACTER.
But that's the character Handler and NOT the actor portraying the Handler. And I can just hope that all the actors involved (because I can not know except if there is actual footage and actual first hand comments of the people, the actors involved, that show that it was abusive behaviour in real life) actually just acted, because that's the job they are doing.
That one of the actors was on the younger side of being a teenage boy...
I googled "law canada child actor parents".
First thing I found:
"You, or a chaperone appointed by you, must accompany your child to set if they are under the age of 16. A parent/guardian or chaperone must be at the studio or accessible to the child at all times when the child is on set and must go with the child to and from the set or location."
If I am not wrong that sentence is a summary, so if you want the law I found this:
https://www.ontario.ca/laws/statute/15p02
As we all know after "I'm Glad My Mom Died" by Jennette McCurdy and the disgusting person that Dan Schneider is, parents are not always there to protect a child actor.
Unfortunatley all these child protection laws for performer are younger than anybody of us would wish.
But https://www.ontario.ca/laws/statute/15p02 was law during the production of The Umbrella Academy.
I do not know why you think I would live in a bubble.
I was not on tumblr for the season 1 - 3 for UA that's true.
And the people who do like the relationship of Five and Lila do need to block people because they are not using anti-tags and use the actual ship tags.
But maybe you do not care for using the tags the correct way, because a lot of people don't and that's why we use the blocking tool.
Have a nice day.
I am ESL, I can write better in German if you want to "talk again".
AND I am terrible at writing my thoughts down I am better at talking.
But I think that will not be possible here on Tumblr.
PPS:
I think I found my comment that triggered this anon ask:
"I am always wondering if fans got annoyed by the fight scene in the bath in season 3. Not that Ritu was actually naked but still kinda strange to be annoyed with season 4 the kissing and now ("not" [sic]) with season 3 the "naked" fighting."
Just to be transparent.
