Finished watching season 2 of Humans.
That wasn't the same kind of depressing as the first season, or at least I didn't find it so.

... it is four in the morning and I'm feeling a bit grim, but, I finished watching something.




In lighter news

Colin Morgan is beautiful
but Leo Elster as he plays him somehow isn't.

It bothers me.

I see there's a season 3 on TV now ish. I am unsure if I'll watch it.

I like adventures where things get fixed, and this is thinky stuff about how humans are unkind, and I don't know if I'm up for that. Given how long it took me to finish watching the dvds I already had, which is years, I just... maybe wont.



But I feel like I vaguely should, because there's good thinky stuff with lots of women, so.



I just kind of like Supergirl and happy endings at the minute.

My usual thing being hung up on the possibilities of time travel to just hit undo and fix it
meets current canon that I'm refusing to watch until the other half is out.

Time travel seems likely to be useful around then.

So I keep wanting to rewatch everything and figure out what exactly needs tweaking to end up in a better place for that one Really Bad Day.

Another approach to fic is to bring the massive crossover and have, say, the Legends crash land in the MCU. How would they fix it?

... a speedster is like a multitool of fixing. I mean, the time travel is even built in.

Marvel speedsters don't time travel, do they? Or do they? I know there's mutant time travel powers in the X movies but...

... that's another xover, bring all the Marvel parts back together.




Thing is, while I do go over and over things in my head, I also do know the drama is why we cared in the first place. Just making it all not happen wouldn't be sufficient preparation for the day anyway. I mean a time traveller could keep Tony out of that cave in the first place but that's only good for Tony. Which kind of sucks. Except then the trick is to imagine circumstances where Tony could be his best self without his worst day.

Mostly though, imagining bits I would fix, it's always more drama to fix things right after they've gone wrong. The problem is exposed, now everyone can work on it.

Only many everyones have a different idea of what both problem and solution is from what I do.




I like my recruiting the bad guys bit.


And the whole regulation and oversight and... Hydra using 'into the light' was a bit annoying, because SHIELD was all scuttling around in the shadows and it wasn't good for it.


Just figuring out how to treat people better and that brings together more people to be stronger when the really unavoidable stuff turns up.





But I haven't really been reading much fanfic since Civil War, except for AUs, because... mess. Big mess. Everywhere. And such conflicting ideas on how to de mess it.

... also because Steve/Bucky got way more plausible than Steve/Tony just when the Steve/Tony turned into my favourite thing where fixing the world in microcosm is required. But that's a whole other thing...



Okay, incoherent thoughts not helping, onwards with my day...

It is monday, so I am attempting communication
but it is mostly coming out smileys
and one comment! I was all proud of me about the comment!
it was three words.
and I look at it now and I'm like, those are not the right three words, possibly other words, possibly more words, maybe no more words ever.
... *sigh*


Why so easy to ramble here but so difficult to do answering things?

I talk to the internet at large, but then there are actual people...

I cannot settle to anything
I just keep rewatching vids about Tony Stark.
Like, I want to watch the MCU, but not their MCU, the one that takes all that ouch stuff and fixes it.

... I realise this sounds like time for fanfic but it's such a specific feeling I can't settle to the stories I opened either.

Like a fixit but... big. Bigger. I don't know.
