Do you know how to beat her? No. But I know how it ends.

zeph asking pree “how do I get over this, pree?” and pree looking at her and saying “oh, sweetheart. you don’t.” and tucking her hair behind her ear and adding “life isn’t about getting over or letting go. just moving ahead.”

There’s “let people like what they like”, and then there’s “deny the effects of racism and sexism in defining common trends in fandom”, besties

We do the former, never the latter

It’s not “you’re not allowed to like the white man”, it’s “oh gee I wonder why so many people only care about the white man 🙄”

(You can’t shame people for their favourite if you Have Not Named A Show Or A Favourite You Think People Should Not Have.

Because. Unless your favourite is “white man”. Shit ain’t about you.

And if your favourite is consistently enough the white man in enough different fandoms that you feel personally attacked, you may already have some subconscious suspicions making you feel that way)

since I have a lot of Star Wars mutuals now: if you like Mandalorians, then you're gonna love Killjoys

(or if you like multifacted badasses who are queer, female, or characters of colour? antiheroes? found family? messy complicated relationships? ordinary people being drawn into stopping the galaxy from being destroyed? character-focused sci-fi in general?)

main characters are a trio of bounty hunters running from their pasts, who have a rather vague grasp of 'strictly obeying the law' and 'the greater good', and a very strong grasp of 'I love these people so much I would die for them'

honestly this is less a "these characters set out to save the galaxy" story and more a "these characters set out to save their loved ones which means ending a threat to the galaxy" story

two main characters put each other above everything else and explicitly state they are not romantic, meaning that a queerplatonic relationship is central to characters and plot

the entire overarching plot hinges on the depth of the love that the characters feel for each other, and how far they're willing to go to protect the people they care about

female characters are nuanced, messy, three-dimensional people. they're addicts, bounty hunters, warlords, scientists, and doctors. they're traumatised, cunning, sarcastic, intelligent, protective, and driven. no sexy lamps here!

characters of colour are intelligent and badass, aren't undercut to make white characters look better, and have character arcs that make sense and give them more depth

queer characters are written as full-fledged characters instead of stereotypes and are central to the plot, like my beloved gender-non-conforming warlord and bartender Pree

characters with trauma and PTSD are portrayed in a realistic way, and even when that means they cause problems or can't step up to help their team, they aren't belittled by other characters as weak, lesser, or crazy

apparently-stereotypical asshole characters have emotional depth and character arcs. they're smart, capable, and ruthless, but also care about the people around them and are troubled by the tough calls they have to make

there are real, long-lasting interpersonal consequences of various' characters shitty behaviour. when a shitty parent joins the good guys' team and tries to make amends, their family isn't pressured to forgive or forget what they did.

even characters who only show up in one or two episodes are well-written and memorable, and save the day instead of being there to make the main cast look smarter, stronger, or cooler

I need to give a bullet point to my beloved canon lesbian ship in which two antihero rulers decide to be weird and obsessed with each other, kill a bunch of people along the way, and generally enjoy making each other worse

as the cherry on top, there are fifty episodes across five seasons! the show says everything it wants to and comes to a conclusion with all the loose ends wrapped up! much different from today's wasteland of 'one six-episode season and then cancelled on a cliffhanger'.

KILLJOYS + “Endings” & Hope (Season 3)

for @killjoysmonth

- “The universe has a memory. That’s all time really is. Our whole life to hold in moments. The sweet and the sour, the kisses and the scars. Our beginnings and goodbyes, all written down in time. Recorded, so the universe will know we were here, so we won't be forgotten. We are all made of memories. And this is how I remember it ending…”

“The universe has a memory. And this is how I remember it beginning…”

- “But I was here. I was real and I mattered. And I won’t be forgotten!”

- Some of the lighter moments in the finale came after Lovretta turned the script in. “When you don’t know if it’s your last one ever, where you’re tired, and you have about 48 hours, you can get a little fatalistic. I have to give a shout out to Letitia at Syfy who gave me the best talk,” she recalls.

She said, ‘Some of the end positions for all of the characters are a bit dark. I said, ‘Yeah, that’s where my head was at.’ She reminded me…she said, ‘Do what you want to do, but it would be great to fill it with some of that joy that is you and your voice.'”

“I gave myself permission to have the laughs in the elevator and the kisses. It was all those same arcs but ending them on danger before that last beat of Pree is safe, Fancy saves Turin, there’s a kiss We all deserve it. I want us to sit back on the couch and enjoy it.”

“I want to have hope and optimism. Even if the camera stops, they won’t stop in my head or my heart. I don’t want my lack of knowing, being assured, to end us in a place that’s dark. I hope I gave us the true darkness of war — there were losses — but we had a shit ton of fun.”

It’s the best way to energize for the start of Season 4. To remind us purely what Killjoys is. It’s hope, it’s fear, it’s also camaraderie in the face of some shitty odds that you root for because you know they’re going to get through in the end, and I hope that it’s true for the show.” - Michelle Lovretta on the s3 finale (https://www.tvgoodness.com/2019/09/20/michelle-lovretta-talks-wrapping-up-killjoys-exclusive/)

Watching Killjoys for the first time: The Sugar Point Run

[theladyragnell]

If you ever do go to the effort of a firefighters Killjoys AU, I PROMISE YOU it will not just be for you.

It just works so damn well, is the thing!!!

Eddie is Dutch but with D'avin's backstory (and also a kid)! Maddie is Johnny but with Dutch's backstory! Buck is D'avin but with Johnny's backstory! Bobby is a Scarback! Hen and Chim are respectively Pawter and Pree but again with swapped backstories! I'm still working out exactly how to use the whole doppelganger situation but I sure would use it! Josh Russo is Lucy probably!

I just need to find a way to write it that is not going to take 100k and a year of my life, which is the big problem here.
