Masculinity and Hawaii 5-0 op-ed, but I thought she hit several good points. The only reason I can deal with all the ridiculously over the top action and violence is that Danny too is often going "Really?". As far as Steve/Danny goes, in this case I'm easy and could go either way. Platonic is just as meaningful to me as if they did become a couple. Unlike, say Dean/Cas from supernatural, Steve and Danny are much more complete characters and their trauma is totally different. BFFs would be a happily ever after for them. Similarly, I like the new series The Rookie because an older Nathan Fillion is a breath of fresh air next to a lot of the examples were given of toxic masculinity in the police force.

In Oscar Isaac news:

Triple Frontier Shows Netflix Using the Narcos Template to Shine a Light on Veterans’ Issues I'd like to see this movie actually start a conversation about veterans' issues, but it looks a little heavy on the pew-pew-pew kill-all-Mexicans front.



Oscar Isaac looks real good though, and apparently he's taking a year off after Star Wars, so less stuff in the near future from him.

Into the Spider-Verse spoilers? )

Basically, I'm super excited for this movie, and make sure you sit through the credits for the extra scene.

Smut Swap exchange:

Thanks so much for anyone reading this and thinking about writing something for me! I'm really easy, and if you have fun writing whatever then I'll have fun reading whatever. : ) I think the kink tags are a pretty good indicator of what pushes my buttons, so Imma just talk a little bit about why I like the characters and the relationship, and then throw out some prompts which of course are completely optional. Honestly, you're writing a fic in my fandom/pairing so take as much or as little as you need from this letter.

I marked the warnings that I don't mind receiving, so I'm overall good with Graphic Depictions of Violence, Rape/Non-con, Underage, and whether No Archive Warnings Apply. So, that's fine along with all the specific tags associated with each pairing.

Also, I think I added 'Safeword Use' to a lot of places, so obviously, that's a button masher for me, but please don't feel like you have to crowbar it in somewhere. I'm more interested in tapping out because of emotional reasons than physical ones, but I like the dynamic of care involved, and the conflicting emotions in whoever used the word because they like their partner, they like sex, but something somewhere wasn't right.

I don't have a lot of 'do not wants' but I'm not particularly fond of: 1st or 2nd person point of view, unrelenting fluff, pregnancy (for any A/B/O fic, I just imagine that birth control works great, even if they still like to dirty talk about making babies), everyone unrealistically paired off, and mundane alternate universes without a hint of magic/magical realism.

I realized while I was writing that a bunch of these prompts are kind of wanting an 'asshole' character, but even for all that (which I'm apparently in the mood for) I'd like them to be redeemable, to care at least a little bit about their partner in most circumstances.

So at some point in 2017, I decided to give H5O a chance, and yeah got completely sucked in. I'm not saying I have a type, but I totally have a type and Steve McGarrett is it. Though I loled at some of the articles calling it a police procedural -> HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. This is pure unmitigated cop fantasy . . . means and immunity, oh my god. They waste a dozen bad guys every week, I don't know how they stay in business. However, since it's in no way tied to reality, I enjoy the fast pace and beautiful people wearing pretty colors. While most episodes are self-contained, there are some that span a little bit, and I really like that it feels like they are real people with real history that is actually remembered and remarked on in later episodes.

I am not actually watching this season live, but I did follow along when Daniel Dae Kim and Grace Park got fed up with the nonsense and let the show go. I don't know if I'll watch, because I really liked Chin and Kono and how they fit into the group when the writers actually remembered they existed. Depends I suppose, on how desperate I am for entertainment this summer.

Steve/Danny is basically my McShep 2.0 in some of their relationship dynamics, but with extra pda. I really like them together, and how they took that instant connection and actually worked with it. Though I am horrified by the lack of size kink fics.

Anyway, I figured I'd do some fiddling with screencaps from the Pilot. There is a sad lack of Chin here, but maybe I'll pick a few other favorite episodes if anybody cares. . . or if I just get bored. I promise there is an actual plot, I'd rather just talk about how much I like them. : )

The Pilot )

And icons I made, some of which I like better than others. One day I might even get over my fascination with the blue cloudy texture, but that day is not today.
