I probably won't finish this piece any time soon, but I wanted to share the unfinished version with you anyways!

honestly it was a red flag when bbc sherlock went “well obviously the word written in blood isn’t the german word for revenge, it’s clearly the beginning of the name ‘rachel’, what absolute idiot would fail to see that” when in the original novel it is, in fact, the german word for revenge, which sherlock points out gleefully to a roomful of policemen who all figure it’s the beginning of the name ‘rachel.’
and by red flag I mean it was a clear sign that the adaptation was trying to one-up the source material, instead of engaging with it with love.

I'm still not over the fact that in the book, Aziraphale and Crowley are supposed to look 30 and 24 years old...
This is what they would look like
That's David in 1995 in The Bill and Michael in 1997 (not quite 99 like it's supposed to be) in Wilde.
Those are children! Mere babies!

i cant get over the ball being so CLEARLY all for crowley i can't get over aziraphale trying to woo him with a WHOLE FUCKING BALL because that's what he knows that's what romance IS for him because he's been wanting to dance with crowley ever since dancing was invented and he's so stuck in time with the way he dresses and talks and he still thinks a dance is the high of romance AND HE MADE A WHOLE ENTIRE FUCKING BALL FOR CROWLEY JUST SO HE COULD DANCE WITH HIM like now it's so fucking obvious he gave away his BOOKS without a second thought and it was all for crowley he organised a whole JANE AUSTEN THEME BALL just so he could have an excuse to finally dance with the love of his life and i can't get over this i'm shaking my fists and pacing up and down he did not give a single fuck about anything other than dancing with crowley and HE BARELY TOUCHED OTHER PEOPLE'S HANDS WHILE HIS WHOLE FUCKING PALM WAS PRESSED TO CROWLEY'S AND i need to lie down

Do you think buck eddie is going to happen? I feel like i'm being delusional but also i love being delusional because hope is like one of the greatest feelings even though it's also one of the most devastating things when it's crushed. I want them to happen so bad:(
Look, I know the track record with popular fandom ships going canon isn’t great and it’s hard to shake of the fear of being disappointed once again since there are so many shows and movies etc that let large part of their fanbases down with how their stories eventually ended and how badly the creators treated their fans but I also think we need to give more credit to the 911 writers/creators for how they’ve handled things so far. Obviously we don’t know what they’ve planned and how the story will eventually go but none of the people who make the show are continously awful towards fans (I’m not counting any instances where fans were bothering crew or cast members to the point of them getting annoyed btw) or constantly mad that there’s a popular fandom ship that wasn’t the original plan and throwing tantrums about it or turning it into one big joke that they can bait their fans with and then go ”ha ha just kidding” when nothing eventually happens. They don’t have Ryan and Oliver do interviews together where they would tease us with some big, important and shocking Buddie scene that would end up being a ”blink and you’ll miss it” type of scenario or anything like that that has been quite typical behavior with some other shows. They don’t shy away from writing Buck and Eddie scenes just because some people on the internet write fanfiction about them which in some other cases has been the reaction in the writers’ room.
Obviously I too would be disappointed if they would never become a couple in canon and that’s okay to admit! In my opinion it would make the most sense storytelling wise for Buck and Eddie to eventually get together but if that isn’t the case then that just wasn’t the story the writers wanted to tell and I still would enjoy the show even if I would find one aspect of it disappointing and I don’t think it would leave such a bad taste in my mouth like with some other shows that I won’t name……….. Right now I would say though that there is a good chance it will happen but also who knows!! I think as viewers we need to make peace with the fact that we don’t control the story and try to just enjoy having our (possibly delusional sfdhjnjn) theories about the whole thing and just sit back and watch the story unfold. I know it’s sometimes stressful, especially when there’s one ep per week and you can’t binge watch the whole thing in one sitting and be done with it (I would argue that that’s a good thing but I also get the impatience for not getting the whole story in one go since streaming has made binge watching so easy and also the default way of watching shows for the past decade or so so it can be hard to adjust).
I’m sorry anon I’m not really answering your question at all but I don’t really have an answer! I personally think one of the best parts of watching this show has been that I get to come here and be unhinged to the point of it being a little concerning with all of you and I will be ecstatic if Buddie does go canon and I hope it will happen and in case it doesn’t? I’ll just deal with it the way I have in the past, by ignoring parts of canon and consuming unhealthy amounts of fics instead sdhjmjj. And maybe we’re all being delusional but the important thing is that we’re having fun. It’s still only a tv-show, even if it is important to us and I’m at the point where I think anything could happen and I personally have chosen to just enjoy my ride in the clown car. I’m just a passenger and maybe I will be disappointed once we arrive to our destination because it doesn’t end up being what I wanted it to be but at least the ride there was fun, you know?
