All the Agents of SHIELD Squee!

[chaneen]

In which I wrote a surprisingly long post about how much I loved this week's episode. If you hated it, you might want to skip!

YES TO ALL OF THE ABOVE. Idk, though, are we sure that's the only reason Skye infiltrated SHIELD? Part of me hopes so because I can't see how her relationship with the team would survive another betrayal, but I'm not ready to trust it yet. Guess it could be, though... why her past has been redacted by SHIELD is a decent enough plot line to continue with.

Did you see the preview for next week OH MY GOD I THINK I MIGHT ACTUALLY DIE. Also, that one Agent dude from Item 47! :DD

In other news OH LOOK I FOUND YOUR LJ, HI THERE, I'M GOING TO FRIEND YOU NOW. :D

It sounded to me like it was? I mean, she was working with Miles on something, and he knew about the memory card, so it's easy to assume that her parents were what they were working together on. I really hope that there aren't any more secrets, because, yes, the team couldn't handle it. ALSO PHIL WOULD BREAK OUT THE DISAPPOINTED FACE AGAIN, AND I JUST CAN'T DEAL WITH THAT!!!

Yeah, there are a lot of ways they can go with that! And I don't think Skye's ~mysterious past should be something that's ongoing forever, so too many more hidden things might be annoying in that respect.

ASL;DKFJAS;DLKFJKL; THAT PREVIEW!!! It looks really interesting, and yay Agent Blake! Sadly, though, it's a repeat next week (because of the World Series--if they go that far, Game 7 would be on Tuesday), so we have to wait two whole weeksHI HI I AM FRIENDING YOU BACK! I'm trying the whole "actually posting to LJ" thing again, so hopefully I can keep that up! (Also, I

Ok so I just went back to the end of ep 2 and this is why I think Skye's Rising Tide secrets aren't over: the text she got read, "Rising Tide in a holding pattern. Planning to go dark. What is your status?" to which she replied, "I'm in." ...So, it sounds like the Rising Tide has a bigger agenda involving SHIELD, of which she is a part, and it's more than just her personal reasons of trying to figure out who she is. I think she gave that info up as the lesser of two secrets, as a way to distract Phil and make him think that was all she had.

TWO WEEKS IS TOO LONG, SOB.

Yeah, I just made a big post several days back for the first time in a while. I don't want to abandon LJ entirely, but often all my flailing-about-life urges are taken care of via Twitter. Sometimes you need more than 140 characters, though!

Thank you! Guh, I know, I love that art. I've been meaning to use a larger version from my desktop, but I haven't gotten around to it. Because cropping takes SO LONG, lol.

It does sound like that might be the case, doesn't it? She did say that she contacted Miles when she first got inside of SHIELD, so that could have just been a communication from him, using "Rising Tide" as a moniker so he'd be anonymous if the message was intercepted, though. Either way, I do like that she has ulterior motives, and didn't just join the team and automatically switch sides completely.

I KNOW! IDK HOW I'M GOING TO WAIT THAT LONG! We are having a group rewatch of this ep on Sunday, and of some other Clark Gregg-related thing next weekend (a movie? IDK), so at least there will be fannish things to do during the wait. How we're going to survive the December hiatus period, I have no idea.

Same same. I love twitter, but going to wincon made me miss LJ a lot, and the interaction I used to have with people over here. I wish it would come back, because I ♥ conversations, but I'm not hopeful

I'm too lazy (and lacking in talent) to make my own desktops too. My current one is an adorable Batfamily dogpile from Batman & Sons that a friend did a superquick Photoshop cut and paste on. I don't have Photoshop, though, so my image-editing ability is pretty limited. But I've already figured out how to crop in Preview, so there's that at least.
