I LOVE THAT YOU LOVE MCDANNO!!!!! I remember watching the first episode of h5o and as Danny was bitching at McGarrett about. Stuff. I knew that they were the stuff otps are made of.
They are so ride or die for each other, truly one of my favorite dynamics. In fact, like, the entire h50 ohana is one of my absolute favorite found families in any piece of media. It's all SO good. Chin and Kono and Max and Grace and Kamekona and Jerry and ADAM. God, Adam had one of my favorite arcs in the entire show — just all of them are so good. Even that kid Nahele that Steve quasi-adopted in the later seasons. Fucking love it.

That one scene in Ke Kinohi really had it all. Steve casually riding up a flight of stairs in a motorcycle at full speed, Kono gloatingly waving confiscated guns in gang members faces, Chin quipping and toting around a body-sized gun like it was an umbrella, Steve and Danny doing their casual threat of torture convo back and forth thing, Danny grabbing a Yakuza, BY THE JAW, and slamming his entire body into a table?!!?!!?
Basically my kink is when the og team got to be actually scary badasses and look SO sexy doing it 😭

In episode 4x07 there is a kiss. Alas, McRollins one 😉 But this kiss... It's this one that screams so much "IT'S SO DAMN FORCED!". It's this one that screams it in the loudest way and when I look at it I'm like "Yeah, I always thought all McRollins kisses looked bad but this, this one shows how much awkward they all are".
Tumblr media
"It's just a kiss", you can say. But not in my eyes. It's not only forced, it's... creepy. Ok, I know that in this episode Lenkov wanted us to believe how much Steve loves Cath and that he's full of negative vibes here (or: hidden not hidden tension) cause he worries about Cath's safety. Well... Let me ignore it, please. I can't believe it, I really can't, ok, Steve cares about people (more than about himself and in some cases too much), but in this scene I just see Steve trapped (and feeling uncomfortable) in relationship with Cath. And in that scene I only see that he's again pissed off and hurt and again - he can't trust her, he doesn't trust her.
When I look at Steve's expression in this scene, at his body language, at Cath... Geez, I don't see partners. I see soldiers - but not "buddies" ones. Call me like you want but that's what I see. Steve in this relationship is often like "Yes, sir!" - or rather: "Yes, madame!". Even when he disagrees, when he has enough etc. - he "can't" do anything. Cath has a fucking power. Cath always can make him... this. Her "good boy". Her "boy that always forgives, always waits for her - even after breakup". She's like "come here, give me a kiss and be a good loyal boy" - and he does it though his body, his eyes, all betrays him. All screams "He is so irritated but he can't break free".
Tumblr media
This photo above. She puts her hands on him, oh, she literally pulls him towards her and she's like "now give me a kiss and be ok" ("don't think about your issues, ok, just be a big boy"). He stands still, his muscles, all his body is tense. His jaw - clenched. His face - not happy, not excited. Eyes - *she's coming, she's coming closer, mayday, mayday...*.
But she is closer and closer and she hypnotizes him again with Say Yes, Sailor gaze. She makes him feeling guilty. And they kisses and Steve is still like a rock, he just stands still, closes eyes and touches her lips - it's like focusing on a task, focusing on his mission, Steve looks here like famous "close your eyes and think of England". (or: "You started this relationship so suffer now").
Tumblr media
Her face. Have I already told you how much I dislike Cath's (cause it's never about Michelle, of course) grimaces? No? So now you know. Just look at this one. And at her gaze. "Well... Good boy. Good job, sailor". (can I mention that she also looks like a spider looking at a fly? well...). It's not only in that scene, oh no, I see these grimaces literally in every McRollins scene. But here she just looks like a Very Officer Lady trying to tame her soldier (I would even say: toy soldier - cause imo sometimes she treats him like her toy, like her property, like someone "granted" - but it is, as f.e. her being Doris 2.0 or worse, another issue).
And Steve?
Tumblr media
"Yes, Madame". *SMILE* But it's not even a smile. It's a forced grimace. It's a mask. Look at his jaw, his cheeks. All is damn tense there. He grits his teeth. He's nervous and his muscles (especially facial ones) show that well. Look at his neck. At his cold "I have enough" ("Stop playing with me") gaze. Cath sees the smile and she doesn't care about the eyes. She doesn't care about "mirror of the soul".
Each damn time when they kiss (or have an argument) I feel this. That they're like Soldier and his Madame. That all their relationship just sucks - and they both know it (oh, she knows well he doesn't love her, she doesn't love him either, and that his needs aren't her needs and so on, she knows he has his issues, his own mess... but she stays and stays and makes it worse, she starts playing, messing with Steve and after breakup she is that one who is like "oh, don't be angry, boy, kiss me, let's have sex, let's be together again"). That Steve is forced to do it (he's a bit guilty too, I get his issues but... still - guilty too, yeah, but not as much as Catherine, what she did to him and after that... geez, I have no words - ok, I have 😉). That he doesn't really love her. That he regrets dating her. And fucking her. He doesn't wanna be lied all the time (and he needs to stop lying to himself). He can't respect, like and love her like he respects, likes and loves Danny. He can't trust her like he trusts other people (all around, all Ohana, are more, moooore, honest than her). He doesn't wanna be someone's toy. He needs to escape but... he can't. He needs some help. And still, he can't leave people just like they leave him.
Sometimes I think that the only thing they have in common is Navy. Oh, not sometimes. All the time.
And Danny? Ayy, with Danny all is so different. All these almost-kisses (at Governor's charity party, in Korea, in Afghanistan, in AU episode, at the dinner with Matt...) are so real, so beautiful, so sincere. So full of real love, real warmth and friendship, partnership and trust. So full of real desire and chemistry. And of "it's eternal", "you're the most important" "we dream about the same" "I'll never hurt you" promise. This is what Steve really wants. This makes him really happy, this makes him calm. And Danny saying "I can give you a kiss, just pick a base" in season 7? Oh, that was like a dream. Steve's face said it all. He was so relaxed, so happy, so safe when Danny said it, when they soon hugged. Danny... With his Danny it will never be like with Cath.

Mana’olana, Chapter 5
Knocking another chapter off my to-do list for April. It’s not looking like I’ll get the only other task done since i have work-related social plans this evening but never say never….
title: Mana’olana, Chapter 5
Fandom: H50
Pairing: Endgame McDanno. Canon other pairings up until end of season 5.
Fic summary:
Mana’olana: to hope, to have faith. 
Finding out he’s Charlie’s father sets in motion a series of changes for Danny. Some for the better, some not. But once the first domino falls it sets off a cascade and it’s not only Danny and Charlie that are effected. As the extended ohana gathers for Kono’s and Adam’s wedding, Danny finds that maybe not everything is lost.
Chapter summary: Danny has a rough night and then the team catches a case right before Kono’s big day.
Tags/warnings: season 5 finale-fix-it, endgame mcdanno, not nice to Rachel Edwards, discussion of child custody agreements, canon-typical cases/violence.
Tumblr media
Read Chapter 5 here on AO3

5.20/1.20 Hiking Date Turns Murder Mystery
One of those glaring occasions when a Mcdanno trope/storyline/date is repeated with a straight couple later. Looking at the episode numbers you can't tell me this isn't intentional. To add insult to injury it actually illustrates that Steve and Danny have a healthier and more loving/lasting relationship vs actual married people but sadly will never be recognised as such by canon.
A husband not screaming his wife's name was one of the main reasons Lou was suspicious about his distress not being genuine. It happens so fast yet Danny screams Steve's name 5-7 times at least. Unlike Clay, Danny actually loves his spouse partner.
So Steve and Danny are 5 times more married than the actual marrieds via the show logic. Just a typical frustrating case of the disconnect between Show vs Tell, where the writers keep telling us Steve and Danny are brothers but showing them behaving like canonical spouses.

Fic Writing Review 2023 🌈
tagged by @itwoodbeprefect - i have also been thinking about this so thank you for taking the initiative!
tagging @faorism @gallantrejoinder if you'd care to do this in any form (including as writing/art review)!
Words and Fics (on ao3) 📚
words posted: 52,220, apparently. Which is actually... basically last year's but minus 10k because I didn't do H50 Big Bang this year, because med school. most things in my life now can be stated as 'because med school'. (actually I just realised I didn't do it last year either, but that was because I was already finishing a 10k H50 fic. so my point stands)
fics posted: either 6 or 29, depending on whether one counts the advent calendar as one fic or 24. plus 3 posted only on Tumblr.
first fic: love don't treat you like that (babe, I'm letting you know) (H50). on the NINTH of january, apparently. i've already lost my first-fic-of-the-year contest to last year, unless i unexpectedly finish something today.
last fic: Advent Calendar 2023 / ...Zaph Kilkane, the pre-eminent climate scientist of the 22nd century...
-
Ships and Fandoms ⚓
would you believe I literally did not repeat a fandom this year, outside of the advent calendar. and this year's AC had the most fandoms since 2019.
Hawaii Five-0 (McDanno)
NCIS: LA (Sallen)
Starsky & Hutch (S/H)
House MD (Hilson)
MASH (Punnihawk)
and then AC-only ones:
Star Trek (Spirk)
The Man From UNCLE (Napollya)
911 (Buddie)
Due South (i don't know ship names. are there ship names? Fraser/RayK)
Good Omens (Azcrow)
Leverage (thiefsome)
Almost Paradise (Ernesto/Alex. alesto. i'm coining it)

Top 5 Fics by Kudos 🏆
I mean, I have 6 posted fics that can be kudosed separately.
love don't treat you like that (babe, I'm letting you know) (H50)
When You're Loving Me (That's When I'm Loving You) (NCIS: LA)
Advent Calendar 2023 (see above. nine fandoms)
my powers of expression and thoughts so sublime / could never do you justice in reason or rhyme (House MD)
Finding A Cure In You (S&H)
-
Top 5 Favorite Fics 💖
okay, I'm going to count distinct chapters of the advent calendar for this. in no particular order and subject to mood change:
When You're Loving Me (That's When I'm Loving You) (NCIS: LA) - I cited this as a contender for my favourite fic I've written a couple months ago, so obviously it has to go in the year's. what can i say, fake dating is an immaculate trope, and this also all came onto the page very easily which is always vaguely miraculous.
there you go pulling me right back in (H50) - sometimes vague prompts i've had down for ages write up as something that's. fine, but a bit clunky, and I just have to move on bc it's the advent calendar and a new fic each day. sometimes I start writing them and they spring into life with joyous delight. or in this case, uninhibited grumpiness and love.
singing yesterday's songs wishing i could be with you tonight (MASH) - the one that didn't make it into the top 5 kudosed, I assume partially due to being locked and partially due to being a serious tone, not terribly shippy, and Peg POV. But I've had some version or other of it for a long time, it's one of those stories I'm genuinely proud of, and I was glad to finally post it.
Totally Normal (Due South) - it's fun. it was fun. I was slightly nervous about it, because the only prior Due South thing I'd written was Dief POV and this was Fraser and RayK POV and the first time writing either of those, but it turns out watching + liveblogging four and two seasons, respectively, of a character in four months is. enough to cement their voices in my head. it was unexpectedly easy and also. fun.
Festive Spice (MUNCLE) - i just think it epitomises the advent calendar. in the words of coolbreezemage, 'yesssss bake cakes and kiss your partner'.
HMs:
Finding A Cure In You (S&H) - this doesn't make it to the above list due to the fact that I haven't actually managed to reread it since I posted it. but just for the amount of time I spent with it, how different it is to my usual M.O. of writing, and the weird way I wrote it (entirely in the notes app, with almost zero rereading while writing), I have to somehow mention it.
A Thousand Words / To Be Spared (Good Omens) - I don't know if they're favourite but I do think they're good. and the format of to be spared was pleasingly experimental and i think it worked.

also the Starsky & Hutch SHarecon zine! which the zine still holds copyright on, but will be posted in April.

Projects for 2024 👀
mmm gonna sort this differently and also ramble
Ones that will definitely be finished in 2024 and if they aren't you have free rein to come to my house and tie me to a chair come November: MUNCLE wip, The Unwitting Truth Affair/The Honesty Affair, I haven't actually decided which title yet;
Starsky & Hutch, the still-unnamed Huggy & Pete wip.
Ones I have both hope and some amount of faith will be finished in 2024 and if they aren't you have free rein to come into my inbox and harass me about them: Hawaii Five-0 wip, Much Ado About Something (*salutes squares*);
other Hawaii Five-0 wip, state of disrepair. yes, I'm manifesting state of disrepair 2024. probably november/december 2024, but i'm manifesting it anyway;
Leverage wip, all that I want is a kind heart to haunt
Ones I would like to be finished in 2024, and if my brain decides it likes them might be, but all you have free rein for is to politely ask me about them once per business month: Hawaii Five-0 cath/steve/danny pwp, Wait A Minute Let Me Take You There;
horny S&H wip, Previews Of Your Body Driving Me Insane;
S&H Vanessa coda, so cordial / so rotten (don't ask me);
Good Omens wip, love won't you be as you've always been
Ones I don't expect to finish in 2024 but would like to get some words down in: angsty S&H wip, Relentless As The Rain;
ridiculous undercover H50 wip, Four Seasons of Love;
other ridiculous H50 wip, The Irritating, Annoying, Infuriating, (Effective) Seduction Techniques of One Steven J. McGarrett;
SPN ..wip? depending on the time limit on 'progress'?, Smells Like Turpentine.
vague thoughts: i'd like to write a full-length (for whatever value of that. the AC ones actually were full-length, especially the second one, but what I really mean is AC-independent) due south fic. they're very weird and i enjoyed writing them, and I'd also like to write something with RayV in it. maybe if I successfully inspired @itwoodbeprefect to write new ds, when she does that it will inspire me to write something, and we can set up a ping-pong game. no, wait, that's mixing fandoms.
I expect more MUNCLE fic. this one's already 3.5k and rocketing along, and i'm only two-thirds of the way through season 1. what form that will take i don't know at this stage but we'll see.
....i was discussing the vague concept of house/h50 crossover fic with squares literally yesterday and on the one hand I haven't written a crossover since 2014 and also don't want that to be my legacy, but on the other hand i think there is at least a 50% chance it's going to stick in the back of my brain and keep niggling.

Fic Review of 2023!
I was tagged by @stephmcx!
Boy howdy I uh..... managed to write a lot last year. I genuinely have no idea how I did it.
Words & Fic (on Ao3)
Words Posted: 116,930
Fics posted: 17
First Fic: Sewing on a Different Kind of Seam, the first of PI Trans Danno!
Last Fic: Home Run, Steve gets whacked in the junk!
Ships & Fandoms
It's all been McDanno H50 because I guess I got BIT but the FUCKING BUG.
Top 5 Fics by Kudos:
ONE: (When You Hold Me) Press My Skin Until It's Sore H50, McDanno, 15.7k words. Steve and Danny finally get their shit together in the PI au.
TWO: Sewing on a Different Kind of Seam H50, McDanno, 8.7k words. The beginning of the PI au.
THREE: Shudder H50, McDanno, 5.4k. Danny calls Steve ~sir~ and gets plowed.
FOUR: If I had a Choice I'd Tear it Asunder H50, McDanno, 7.6k. Steve offers Danny a job w/ Five O in the PI au.
FIVE: Deep Inside Your Hands are Tied H50, McDanno, 7.9k. Danny tells Steve about the trans thing in the PI au.
Top 5 Favorite Fics: (In alphabetical order)
Agitated States of Amazement The start of t4t McDanno. My newest baby. I need to finish this series so badly, but for whatever reason it's been a struggle.
Home Run I just really like how this one turned out y'all. I never thought I'd write about CBT, but here I am.
Salt Porn.
Shudder More porn.
Where Waters Do Not Curve Is this technically cheating? Just putting the entire series for PI Trans Danno? Maybe. Do I care? No. This is my baby, I'm so proud of it.
Projects for 2024!
The big obvious one is to work on t4t, I gotta get my girl Stef finished.
I have several other WIPs floating around, including a Mob au, Professor Danno, and a soulmark one.
I'm also in the middle of a disgustingly fluffy xmas fic, that got sidelined because I got sick and then uhhhhh my cat died. So I don't care that it's not really the holiday season anymore, I'll post it when I'm finished.
