I was talking to @luckyshazmrsmonaghansblog about Shameless 10x07 after we watched it, like I always do and she told me I should post my review. And since I love her so much, I usually do whatever she tells me to do. Lol!

I really liked Carl's story line. He has such a big heart, and that makes me love him so much! He, out of all the Gallagher's, reminds me the most of Ian. He has Ian's big heart and I really love that!

Lip and Tami's story lines have been so fucking boring, but this week has to be a new low for them! But since I don't care about them, it's not upsetting. I'm just baffled that the writers think this is interesting stuff. Also, that they think this deserves longer scenes over Ian and Mickey's scenes.

Now onto sandy. I see why the people with spoilers were saying she was gross. I totally get it and now she can leave. I hate that they're going to have her involved with Debbie. That is, if it's true. I don't even want to think about her being involved in the wedding! Ugh!

Also, are people gonna get pissed off at her, like they did Ian, for her talking about incest. The only difference here was she wasn't joking like Ian was. But I'm sure people won't give her as much shit as they did Ian.

“It’s not like we’re related.” They have the same last name! Terry is her uncle and his father! Does she not know how relatives work? I know it’s too soon to judge her with less than five minutes on screen. God knows Mickey didn't make the best first impression either. I don’t know any of her background, but knowing what the Milkovich life is like, I’m sure she hasn’t had it easy. So, I’ll still try and keep an open mind, but I can’t see myself loving her.

This show doesn’t need more characters to waste valuable Gallavich screen time, because we all know the producers will choose anyone else’s scenes over Ian and Mickey, every fucking time.

If it is true about her and Debbie, why do they have to keep doing this? Do all the Milkovich's have to date a Gallagher to be involved in the story line? They're going to be legally related to each other. They don't need excuses to involve the Milkovich's and Gallagher's anymore. They're going to be family. I know they're not blood related, but I find it weird for family members to date from the same family. I found it weird with Lip and Mandy.

That happened in my own family. Without getting too much into it, my uncle married his sister-in-law and my mom and I always found it weird. I know it's not blood relatives, but legally they're already related and we always found that strange.

It's like that here. The only Milkovich and Gallagher that belong together are Ian and Mickey. They need to stop! They don't need to use that as an excuse to involve the Milkovich's in the story lines anymore. Old habits die hard for these writers, I guess.

Screen time was better than last week, that's for sure. Still don't think it warranted a huge Gallavich campaign, considering how much they made it out to seem like this would be their season. But it was definitely better than last week.

Domestic Ian and Mickey was all I ever wanted! We may have gotten a minute of it, but it's better than nothing and I was so happy. I freaking loved it! Did you see how happy Mickey looked?! Being all lovey dovey, blatantly checking Ian out and being domestic in front of other people, without fear or shame. I'm so happy for Mickey! And Ian, bc this was all he ever wanted with Mickey as well.

THE LUNCH DATE!!!! Mickey got Ian his food and everything! How did they plan this lunch date?! Did they plan before he went to work? Did Mickey call Ian? Text him?! Did he know what to get Ian already? Was it Mickey’s idea? Was it Ian’s idea? I was brought to tears and that kind of made me mad. I shouldn't be crying over very mundane, normal shit that most couples experience, because we never get this for them. It took 10 seasons to get to this point and it shouldn't have taken that long.

But seeing them do normal couple domestic stuff was a beautiful thing and all I ever wanted for them! Of course until the bitch P.O. showed up. I knew she would want to get Mickey involved in her shit. (She was on SNL last night too and I was so conflicted about it. LOL!)

Even though the situation wasn't great, I was super thrilled to see Mickey riding shot gun in the ambulance with Ian. I know that's not the focus of this scene, but I always wanted to see that and I never thought I would.

When Ian became an EMT while Mickey was gone, I thought he'd never get to see Ian work and I always wanted him too. I knew he'd be so proud of Ian and would love seeing him work. The circumstances weren't great but, a wish of mine came true.

If I'm being honest, a lot of moments did in this episode and apparently the next. Ian and Mickey walking outside with their arms wrapped around each other and laughing. OMG!!!!

I knew when I saw Noel run from the cop in the BTS video, this was how it was gonna be. The cop shows up and his first instinct is to run. Mickey's probably like, Ian you idiot why aren't you running and Ian is like, Mickey you idiot why are you running? I love them so much!

gif source: @seeallmydreams

To think that was the final scene they filmed for the season. I pray it won't be the last. I need married Gallavich next season! A full season of them married! I MUST HAVE IT!!!

I feel like they may renew it. I think Shameless has been around so long, that Showtime runners would want to give them a farewell season. They've been doing that with their other shows, that haven't even been on as long as Shameless.

so my group is back to urban fantasy game and damn yall we had a hell of a session I’m gonna spare y’all and put this under a cut bc it’s long but it’s a truly epic tale

So my character has been crushing on this fae since this time last season. Crush Fae owns NYC’s best goblin market and also keeps Asshole Fae captive. Asshole Fae is this nasty guy who seduces women and steals their names. I rescued two of his victims last year as part of baby’s first goblin market adventure. Also I’ve made it clear to the GMs that I intend to kill him.

Anyway this year Crush Fae has decided that 5 members of our organization are their Champion. They explain to us we have to go through a chain of trading things in order to pick up an item they need. Our party is: half of the organization’s HR division, one (1) Shooty Boy, and an actual circus clown who believes he’s on a reality show. Rich Guy With Parent Issues (but not the ones you’d imagine) is on HR with me, and he and I were at baby’s first goblin market adventure together so we know Crush Fae, but none of the others have met them, although Shooty Boy does have a dope ass fae-made arm that he got after losing his in the Most Dangerous Game last year.

So we go to our first sidequest stop which is, ahem, picking up a dead body from some EMTs. Also a lady from the fbi is following us which has my character freaked the fuck out bc she’s already got some shit going on with the feds but anyway. Parent Issues Guy and Party Planner Lady, who’s the other HR person there, distract the fbi lady while Clown and Shooty Boy decorate the body bag to look like the clown’s bag in order to get it into our car.

Next stop we have to pick up a spirit spider, this isn’t too difficult. Then we take them both to Vampire Butcher, who is also a blood witch and who also happens to be my roommate’s boyfriend. I haven’t actually met him yet and even though I love her I just cannot bring myself to trust her judgement or this man. So as he’s putting his fresh body away for, um, ritual use, I’m talking to him and he asks about my roommate. He says he’s glad I’m looking after her and I say, yeah, I’m looking after her. And y’all the gm rolled zero successes to resist intimidation and this fucking pack leader vampire almost went into a frenzy bc he was so cowed, you don’t fuck with my friends

So in return for the body and the spider he’s given us a briefcase full of cash, which we take to the pocket dimension bodega. We exchange it for Crush Fae’s item, which is a sandwich made by the best chef in the fae realm. Just when it looks like everything’s about to wrap up, ASSHOLE FAE APPEARS OUT OF NOWHERE.

It turns out the way Asshole Fae’s imprisonment works is that once a year Crush Fae has to choose a task and a set of Champions to carry it out. If Asshole Fae can stop the Champions from completing the task, he gets to be free. So now it’s going to be a race to get this bitchin’ sandwich back to Crush Fae before Asshole Fae rips all our throats out. Asshole Fae is about to leave the bodega (which is strictly neutral territory) when I hold him up for a second.

“How much would it cost me to keep you here for a couple of hours?”

So, in return for giving my friends until midnight to get a head start, I have to give up my Championship - meaning Crush Fae doesn’t remember me at all anymore. It’s a big deal bc not only is that relationship a thing I’m working on narratively, I’ve actually paid experience points into representing it mechanically. Not to mention it would fucking crush my character, since it was the first real connection she made since she betrayed her girlfriend and went to prison 3 years ago. BUT I’m determined to be heroic and brave, so I give it up.

The rest of the party goes out and gets to work, calling our organization to drop off a car and their weapons at a meetup point, leveraging contacts to get a better route through the city, etc etc. Meanwhile I’m sitting in the bodega writing (my character is a journalist) while he’s trying to taunt me. I manage to get some backstory out of him, but he also tells me how difficult it will be for Crush Fae not having these memories, apparently they’ve put a lot of trust in someone before and got burned real bad. But I’m trying to act like it doesn’t affect me knowing this stuff. At midnight he’s about to leave and I hold him up once more.

And then I drop this bomb ass poem that I actually wrote in the real world essentially saying that he is NOTHING and I am going to ABSOLUTELY DESTROY him.

So that ends up being our first chase roll and I beat him, and now he’s pISSED. But my friends have a good head start and also some insane buff abilities. Circus Clown is able to hand out re-rolls like candy and also has a pool of 3 extra dice that can be used any time and refreshes every scene; Shooty Boy lets us re-roll any successful die (not just 10s), and Party Planner gave us all a condition that lets us get an exceptional success with just 3 successes. This party is a TEAMWORK MACHINE and we are CRUSHING IT.

The rest of the game is one long chase sequence (intercut with shots of me drinking copious amounts of coffee and ambling slowly towards the final destination). We get some truly incredible moments including: sneaking through the back room of every party supplier in New York; attempting and not quite succeeding at stealing the ambulance from our EMT contacts; and perhaps best of all, assembling a bomb out of party planning supplies and EMT gear (nail polish remover, lidocaine, and hair spray are a hell of a combination), and encasing it in a set of circus balloons tied into the shape of a grenade, which the party then affixed to the end of an arrow which Shooty Boy shot while standing in the sunroof of our company car as the party drove over the Brooklyn Bridge.

We all arrive at the goblin market just ahead of Asshole Fae, to his anguish and Crush Fae’s delight. Crush Fae shares the sandwich with all of us, even me, although they don’t think they’ve met me before. Asshole Fae shakes his little vial of memories at me as a reminder of the one tiny victory he did win, but I just lick the delicious sandwich grease off my fingers.

As we’re wrapping up, Parents Guy asks Crush Fae if they can help him find his mom. Crush Fae would be willing, in exchange for a favor. I ask Crush Fae to take a walk with me,but Parents Guy stops us. He says he’ll take the deal, and offer something extra: a memory. Crush Fae is intrigued when he says they ought to take the memory up front. He gives them all his memories of my and Crush Fae’s interactions - including the first time we met, and the last time we saw each other before their memories of me were taken. With those first and last memories back in place, everything comes rushing back as Crush Fae realizes what happens.

In the distance, we hear a tiny glass vial break, and a shout of rage.
