I love how he tries to be nonchalant about it but we all know what's gonna happen the moment Commander Scott Tracy lays eyes on him

Started a Thunderbirds Are Go rewatch. Currently on "Tunnels of Time" episode. IR rescued the miners and uncovered the pyramid. Opening titles. Then the professor Harold guy says that was five months ago. What even is this timeline????

Love a self-inflicted time loop. The main character isn’t trapped. They can stop whenever they want. But how can they when things aren’t perfect yet? They can do better than this. They need to try again. They can get it right this time. They just need to try again. They can stop anytime they want. Just one more time. They can fix this. They just need to try again. There are still things to fix. They just need to try again.

hey, remember being 18 years old and playing mass effect for the first time and it's got this like intense aura of being very small and very insignificant in a very big, very empty galaxy? remember playing mass effect for the first time and everything all of this is so new and mysterious, and it's 2am and you're sitting in a dark room in the light from your tv and you're playing through feros for the first time and you feel that this is someting very old and very ancient and you are somewhere you shouldn't be and you don't know what's going to happen or where you're going but you keep on. there's a tingling in your stomach and you're playing mass effect for the first time. the thorian is a milennia old sentient plant being. the rachni queen is old and telepathic and a hive mind and in pain. sovereign is an ancient machine that has not been built but is, and has always been, and this is something so alien and so unlike and beyond anything your human mind can comprehend, and this is something unexplainable and huge and as uncaring and indifferent as the empty galaxy around you. you're playing mass effect for the first time and you're walking on the surface of an almost completely empty planet with nothing but your two companions silently walking beside you and everything is so huge and empty and silent and you're so small and insignificant and it's so beautiful and so scary and you feel like you are on a rollercoaster about to drop down. you are playing mass effect for the first time and you're playing the mission on the moon and you stop and just look up at earth visible in the sky. you know this. this is home. you are playing mass effect for the first time, and the galaxy is so big, and you are so tiny, and everything is about to change for you.

Tunnels of Time is such an underrated favourite for me and I’m gonna tell you all about it
Like, I just love that John’s all don’t panic but ofc big bro panics because he’s big bro and that’s what he does when any of his lil bros are in danger
and lil bro #1 laughs because big bro is so predictable
off they go to rescue a fish and big bro gets one of the best entrances in TAG history like damn sir hello you can enter my tent anytime you like if you know what I mean
he’s so mad and it’s glorious GET HIM SCOTTY HE LEFT THE TADPOLE TO DIE
this guy clearly has no idea how close he comes to disaster and how lucky he is that Virg didn’t bring the entire contents of TB2′s hangar with him, ala Crosscut. Not stopping for Starbucks or to rescue any kittens from trees surely saved that fella
the literal embodiment of unstoppable force meets immovable object right there yo
anyway we all know this part because I use it in every single gif set I ever make and I’m not even sorry why would I be it’s glorious
look at him with those blue eyes and all that guilt eating him alive, must be tuesday. But lil bro has a solution. Definitely a tuesday
and I just love this episode because of the expression on big bro’s face when he finally lays eyes on lil bro #4 and sees that he’s okay
and just imagine being John, Gordon or Alan Tracy and knowing that no matter what happens to you - a mountain might get dropped on your head - but everything will be alright because your brothers will move heaven and earth to get to you.
I bet it feels real good.
