castalie: (PoI - Always Watching You)

[I started typing this entry Monday night, finished it this morning, and now I'm sneaking in at work and trying to post it before my meeting with our university librarians. Incidentally, now that I listen to Welcome to Night Vale, I can't see librarians the same way I did before. If you don't hear from me again by the end of the week, call the Secret Police! Or just talk about my disappearance out loud, they'll hear you, anyway.]

I finished reading my flist and it's so pleasant having to scroll in such a manner to catch up :) This is an aside note but, yes, thank you to those who've been doing the Write for 30 Days challenge.

Obviously I wish we didn't need that kind of little push to update our journals more but I'm choosing to see the positive side of the situation, meaning that I've enjoyed reading all those new entries the past couple of weeks. Incidentally, I've been trying to a) update more myself (not such a raging success but still) and b) commenting more. After all, one of the things I dislike with Tumblr (since Tumblr has become the Big Bad Wolf we all refer to when talking about the demise of our LJ community) is that it makes communication so difficult, which I guess means that I need to interact more here; I can't complain about the lack of easy communication tools in a platform while not using those I have at my disposition on another...

Without the slightest segue. My Person of Interest season 2 rewatch is going slowly but surely. I'm sure I'll be up to date when 24th Septembre strikes (hee cannot wait!).

Watching those first episodes again, I'm always struck by the thought that, you know, John is such a sweet character! He's this badass, damaged dude with Many Issues but he can still relate to and care for others in such a deep way, I just love that. He's always reaching out to people, he obviously cares so much for their Numbers - and not just in a practical, "No worries, if anyone tries to hurt you I'll either punch them in the head or, even funnier yet, shoot them in the kneecap" way. He talks to them, tries to comfort them and goes out of his way to make them feel better about themselves and their choices. And what I love so much too is that he is (surprisingly?) never afraid of showing his feels for Finch. From the whole "I'm happy, must be you the job" to his "Someone new" when answering the "Who's taking care of you now?" question passing by "Someone found me and gave me a purpose" ♥

Also beautiful to witness, Finch's reaction when he hears Reese mention his love for him. Always so taken by surprise but obviously so pleased ♥ And of course, I love seeing Finch's panicked reaction whenever he thinks John is hurt - or how he's always trying to make him be more cautious (good luck with that, Finch!).

Hee, these two, so many feelings!

Yes, live in the moment and enjoy the journal-ing masses while they last. *g*

I miss Reese & Finch on my screen! Not long now, though. I agree with pretty much all your assessments of their relationship. :D

And yes, if one wants to encourage the revival of LJ / Dreamwidth, one should comment by example. ;-P
