*   WHY U HERE THO.       accepting   !

❛       BETCHA  DIDN’T  RECOGNISE  ME          without  all  the  cuts  ‘n’  scrapes  to  boot,  huh.          ❜          a  vague  gesture  is  made  to  his  own  countenance,   a  rare  moment  of  intact  splendour.          when  he’s  clean,   he  glows.          words  are  difficult,   a  stopping  point  positioned  between  the  cohesive  desire  to  voice  himself  and  the  physical  inability  to  do  so.          ❛          listen,  i  uh—     i  wanted  to  thank  you  for  always     —     y’know     —     fixin’  me  up.          ❜          a  weak  smile  presses  his  mouth  upward,   hand  drumming  a  wave  of  tension  out  of  his  body.          head  bows,   huff  of  a  laugh  akin  to  embarrassment.          being  an  outlaw  doesn’t  garner  his  pride.

❛          i  think—     i  think  i  might  be  over  all  that.          leavin’  it  behind  me,   for  good.          ❜

it IS hugely important and not a situation i take lightly.   billy is literally the most disconcerting character on the show for me,  and he fucking targeted lucas from the get-go solely for talking to max.   the implications were obvious :   billy’s a straight up racist and likes taking his anger out not only on minors but on the black boy who’s literally never said a fucking word to him jdlkfjdf

i want to make it very clear that lucas is not scared of billy.   particularly in the 80s,  this sort of hostility was sadly normal   (   and it still fuckin is,  i don’t want to hear any of this it’s 2017,  racism doesn’t exist horseshit   )   and racist remarks have been made toward lucas since season one.   but he is still a child,  and he was in over his head with someone a good few years older than him.   for that,  i think he respects steve for stepping in with a kinda pick on someone your own size mentality,  but if u don’t think lucas won’t hesitate to tell billy to eat shit lmao...... 

i personally would lov s3 to have some sort of resolution in that sense like just grab your wristrocket and catapult a rock straight into his face is2g he deserves that before he gets killed off   (   bc he Better be i get so fuckin sick whenever he’s on screen   )   but i don’t rly want lucas to be hounded any more than he has been like........ give my boi more screentime that Doesn’t surround 1) a love interest or 2) billy fuckin hargrove kill billy and replace all his screentime with lucas thanks x

the  open  night  sky ,    stars  speckled  throughout.    it  makes  him  realise  just  how  small  he  really  is  and  how  big  the  world  they  live  in  really  is.    they’ve  been  to  so  many  countries,    traveled  high  and  low,    seen  so  many  wonders  of  the  world.    but  he  doesn’t  think  he’s  ever  seen  something  so  fascinating  or  beautiful  as  a  clear  night  sky  in  the  middle  of  the  desert.    being  in  the  city,    even  small  towns   —   didn’t  compare  to  the  pitch  black  in  the  middle  of  nowhere.

though,    they  weren’t  nowhere  pursue.    they  were  only  a  few  minutes  away  from  crossing  into  area  51.    and  although  glenn  should  be  on  high  alert,    body  filling  with  panic  and  anxiety  over  what  could  happen  to  them  if  they  were  to  get  caught,    he  was  at  ease   -   in  a  world  of  bliss  with  the  night  sky  that  surrounded  them.      (  but  mostly ,    he  was  just  giddy  about  the  secrets  they  may  uncover .  )

❝    in  just  a  few  minutes,    we’ll  officially  be  in  area  51.    ❞          the  edges  of  his  lips  tug  up  wide  as  he  shines  his  torch  on  their  map.    his  feet  trudge  through  the  sandy  grounds,    backpack  heavy  with  the  equipment  stored  inside.          ❝    though  you’d  think  there’d  be  better  security  with  whatever  they’re  trying  to  hide  in  there.    ❞          so  far  their  journey  had  been  easy,    a  little  too  easy  for  glenn’s  liking.    but he knows the second he starts to panic, is the second they’re both goners.

despite the fact that she’s (usually) pretty cool under pressure, i’d say she was a nervous wreck the first day on the job. she would’ve been fresh out of college/the academy - so, very young - and really wanting to prove herself. her father became the sheriff of his town through the hardships that he faced when he immigrated. despite the fact that maggie was no longer in contact with him when she started, there’s no doubt she would want to make him proud, even if he never saw her accomplishments. which, it turns out, he did. she wanted to achieve the things that he did, and maybe even go beyond that. i think what taught her to be cool under pressure was doing her job and making mistakes and just good ol’ fashioned experience.

being a workaholic is pretty much one of the most important parts of her character. her work bleeds into her life, there isn’t really a line that separates them anymore. especially when she meets alex and gets tangled up with the deo. i’d say her being a workaholic is a result of it being the one place where she can make a difference and control the outcomes of people’s lives. she wasn’t able to do that with her own life, so she tries to help others. also, she believes heavily in alien rights, so there’s that.

now she’s a woc/wlw who’s a homicide detective in a specialised field. she can talk for hours to resolve a hostage situation. she solved an 18 year old cold case that nobody else could solve. she jumps headfirst into cases that other detectives won’t even touch. while her father would probably like to think that it’s because of the things he taught her, it was all her hard work and sacrifice that made it possible.
