so
rufflefeather was the one who convinced me to see X-Men, and for that I owe her eternal gratitude and my firstborn child.
but then the other day she's like 'oh, you should also watch Hex, because Michael Fassbender is in it.' and she tempted me with this clips video that had him looking all dark and bamf-y and I thought 'hell yeah!'
so I watched the first season tonight, AND WTF I CANNOT EVEN. and for once, I mean this in the BAD WAY.
I have no idea what this show is even ABOUT. it started with some plot about witches and fallen angels and voodoo, but then it's just 'sweet virginal girl must get laid for unexplained reasons.' and then people keep saying 'history repeats itself,' LIKE THAT EXPLAINS ANYTHING. oh, and the guys she's into is super fuggo, no thank you.
WHAT THE MOTHERLOVING HELL DID I JUST WATCH? it wasn't even worth it for Michael Fassbender, because he shows up for like 30 second every once in a while, says something cryptic, and disappears, taking my will to live with him.
there is one thing that made it totally worth it, though: FASSBENDER APPARENTLY KISSES LIKE A FUCKING GOD. JUST WATCH THOSE SCENES, AND CRY BECAUSE HIS TONGUE IS NOT IN YOUR MOUTH.
don't believe me?
see for yourself. AND THEN WRITE ME HOT ERIK/CHARLES MAKEOUT FIC, while fanning yourself.
oh, and Thelma was totally cool.
other than that, no. just, no. you could not pay me to watch season 2.
rufflefeather, you owe me now! I will forgive you, since you made me see the x-men light, but I don't know if I can trust your judgment anymore.
this post serves no point other than to vent my frustration and warn you to get your Fassbender fix elsewhere. learn from my mistakes, children.
and as it's now 4:30am, I'm off to sleep. hopefully.
