Read The Comments, They Are Funnier Than Me But That's What I Want To Say

ok so I came across a little malcolm bright fanfic (don't worry babes, linked below, go enjoy) and it began a lil bit of brain rot so hear me out:

(spoilers for the fic, go read it first if you want, commentary/word vomit bit is below)

ok so in this malcolm has a seizure disorder which Gil knows about, but not Dani. stuff gets figured out, others are updated etc. etc.

BUT

my lil goblin brain couldn't leave well enough alone so after like the third time reading this i've decided to pen (or rather type) these ridiculous things i can just about call thoughts

SO

let's set the scene, malcolm (yh for some reason my brain thinks the name looks better lower case? sorry if that bothers you but now it's slightly more symmetrical?) has a seizure while Gil and Dani are there.

(also not trying to romanticise anything, just going off what i got)

Dani and Gil are both used to the Complete Human Disaster™ that malcolm is so obviously they both know seizure first aid for future reference.

(also gentle reminder, if you don't know this go find out, there's like st John's ambulance videos that make you a functioning member of society in under 10 mins)

now, based on the confidence that each of them seem to have regarding the situation, they keep looking at each other like "huh, they seem to have done this before"

so they end up each thinking that malcolm must have epilepsy/a seizure disorder that the other knows about but they never got told.

they look after him, do all the things you have by now learned in helpful video format (wink wink) and everything is fine, right?

THEN

when malcolm eventually wakes up, and is told what happened he is understandably eloquent in saying "wtf, how, why etc." and his surprise makes them realise that for once he wasn't just conveniently leaving out information.

i feel like this started out fine and got slightly more unhinged and less logical as it goes on but if that isn't life i don't know what is

the point may have gotten a little lost and it petered out a bit but i said a thing and it's done so woo

netflix really canceled shadow and bone before matthias could have any screentime in general and with any of the other crows in particular

so sorry king you deserved better

Hey Band of Brothers fandom, take this *throws this at you*

(Found from pinterest)

it's all us

I just found out that I reached 3000 followers! When did this happen?! Arghhh so happy!

To celebrate this milestone, I’m sharing a wonderful whumpy find I’ve been saving for a rainy day! One word: appendix!

From the series The Durrells 1x2 :)

aw bless that seemed a longer walk than expected lmao

after the jokes, gotta say that a LOT of people must have worked really hard on all this from the cars, the films and all the logistics of such an event including filming it. so thank you to all those people

Mota ep. 6, spoilers below

ok so I would say I am generally quite good with violence, gore etc. but my goodness when those German civilians attacked in Rüsselsheim I was not expecting it at all!!

so far the series has shown exactly what we expect, with injuries from flak and bullets and the shown-but-not-really planes going down.

so all of a sudden to get a guy's throat being slit and a headshot and the whack with a shovel that I didn't even watch was... quite something

the best character of anything ever

Saw a post like this with negative outlook so I asked for it to be fixed
