columbo bitches i am begging you to get into mannix (1967) we got:
same creators as columbo + the guy who made mission impossible + lucille ball fixing the show in season 2
mannix: a crumply lil bitch of a man who is constantly being beaten up, rolling around in dirt, etc.
PEGGY my beloved who is his assistant and is witty and smart and has great clothes (and also was one of the earliest recurring black female characters on us tv alongside uhura, which is cool)
cool car chases/cars improbably bursting into flames while in midair (very good), lots of gunfights and people doing that weird 60s move of chopping someone in the shoulder to knock them out (always fun)
clever murder mystery/crime plots as expected from mr and mr columbo
truly 60s nonsense like weirdly long scenes and dramatic zooms, the works (im waiting for a weird trip sequence thats like a minute too long and looking forward to it)
its great fun and very stupid, and although mr mannix is not as cute as peter falk he's still extremely good and very punchable, does a great job being held up at gunpoint and just looking kind of annoyed about it
in conclusion: peggy 💖

what gets you so much about bonnie dd2?
WOOF okay opened pandora's box here, but also I have NO clue if I'll be able to really... Word it properly? She is sort of just The character that my brain decided to latch onto. May be simple, just be that she's new and therefore unique! But at the same time, I think it's because we see her chance at happiness get ruined. For most of the hero shrines in dd2 (that I have played), we see this constant fall: Paracelsus plays god, Audrey robs her first grave, Dismas robs the carriage, but the story doesn't (as far as I know!) really frame them as being on the... Up. It's this constant downward spiral. Things are getting worse and worse for them.
But, fittingly enough, Bonnie finds that glimmer of hope. She runs away from Saint Martha's, and she finds happiness! She's taken in, she's adopted! She finds new parents! It is very explicit: She is happy and things are looking up.
And then she ruins that. She, by her own hands, kills the people who took her in, and now she is haunted by it. All her trinkets weaken her against Gaunt enemies, where you can find the Woodsman, where everything points to that being her dad, the kindly man that took her in, who she killed. Fell the Tree, Carve the Toy, Protect the Child.
What's the worst is how close she was to happiness, unlike... A lot of the rest of the cast. She was so close to it. But she, like everybody else, ruined it by her own hands. And now here she is. There's no heroic background to her. She doesn't know the ancestor. She doesn't have experience fighting off these eldritch abominations that spew forth from the mountain. But she's there. She's fighting anyways.
MANY months ago, I had a run with a Sunny Disposition Runaway. That team, to this day, has been my absolute favorite, but part of the reason I like her so much is because of that one Runaway. Back when act-outs were a thing, Bonnie would consistently take hits for other people, even when they were really fine, and multiple times she had destressed people down to a manageable level. Absolute mvp. So, we head up to the Denial boss fight, and... She's the first one to die. Stuck with me, having the most positive character on that team be the first one to die. Of course, that's just my brain being silly, but it's stuck with me, and remains part of how I write Bonnie to this day.
And in general, I just really like her design! I like how grubby and grimy she is, I like the way her clothes are all patchwork and little details in how she looks! Compared to the rest of the cast, she looks so minor, so plain. Love her animations, love her attacks, love her playstyle, I just generally adore her. Patting her on the head. Lovingly giving her a juice box. Taking her away from my fireplace. Giving her a warm blanket and a nice meal.

kinda fucked up that sksw links favorite color is definitely red and he gets thrown into a full green get up. like his bird is red his belt is red the only bright color he wears at all is red the rest of his casual outfit is different neutral tones. ok he has a little blue on him plus the earrings so he probably also likes blue but that’s still not green. what if he really hates green the whole time hes like im the destined hero ive been sent on a holy mission and they dont even let me pick my own outfit this is bullshit and then he has to wear it forever and ever across multiple timelines and reincarnations because his highschool principal decided he was gonna wear green on a whim
