to me the murderbot books and the tv show are still two separate things (which is good - the tv show is an adaptation, it doesn't have to recreate the books exactly nor should it) but I'm getting a kick out of how being able to SEE SecUnit's face recontextualizes things.

like. in the books the PresAux crew treats SecUnit like a person because they are A) nice in general and B) ethical

in the show the PresAux crew is still A) nice in general and B) ethical, but they're also C) fairly certain their SecUnit is a person because every time they talk to it directly it looks like it's going to throw up

Dear Good Omens fandom! Do you want to celebrate the release of S3 together, in person, with some cool activities?

My dear friend @beccibarnes and my humble self started planning a little get-together in the city of Hamburg in Northern Germany.

It all started as a silly idea, but we kept going on, and now we want to make it real. We took heavy inspiration from Prague Omens and Prague Pirates (An OFMD fandom meeting) - two really cool events that have already taken place several times and were massive successes.

It will happen over the span of one weekend. All main activities are set for Saturday + Sunday, with some additional plans for folks who will be arriving on Friday afternoon/evening.

The main part of the event would be a biiig watch party - as in, booking a movie theatre just for us! - and we've already begun to contact several movie theatres in the city.

Besides that - we already have some other activities in mind, which could include, but are not limited to:

a tour through the city

a boat trip on the Elbe river

having lunch and/or dinner together, maybe even breakfast 👀

having a picnic, if the weather allows it

visiting a board game or cat café

belting out some tunes at a karaoke bar

visiting local exhibitions and sightseeing activities

We will keep it as budget friendly as possible, pinky promise!

The biggest problem is: We don't have a release date yet (thanks, amazon). That makes planning very difficult, not just for us - for you too. Second problem is: We have no idea, how many people to expect (if any, besides us). Therefore, we are asking you:

Now, some additional words about Hamburg, in case you've been wondering...

Hamburg is Germany's 2nd biggest (and also the best, but shhh) city. It's easily reachable by car, bus, train and plane. Our airport is comfortably placed right in the middle of the city and has lots of destinations from all over Europe. Hamburg also has train connections into every nook and cranny of Germany + direct connections to Prague, Vienna, Copenhagen and Basel. We also have a huge central bus station... so yeah. Lots of ways to reach the city.

We've also set up a Discord server - so come and join if you are interested and would like to follow our plans + updates.

Thanks for reading! Please reblog and share this post, we want to reach as many fellow Good Omens fans as possible. :)

dr who episodes should sometimes open with a random scene set in a random room in the tardis with the doctor and or companion just chillin and vibin and it's truly fucking insane that they never do, never! ever!! i'm not even asking for like something important, just have an episode open with idk doc is reorganizing furniture in the tardis lounge-library-pool and then companion gives him a phone call or some shit it's literally so easy, it would make the tardis ACTUALLY feel lived-in
