Might Revolution’s ratings struggle have as much to do with its splintered band of heroes - whom we got to know as a unit in Season 1 - as its new time slot?

BTW, on this note, I did poke around at reviewers takes on the first two eps - like those nasty reviewers who hated season 1 - and they seem very positive about season 2! I hope this means that despite the ratings drop, the show will develop a stable and committed following this season. Said reviewers were really positive about the changes to Charlie and seemed to really enjoy the possibility of Charm hate sex. *giggles* One person mentioned that Charlie is a composite of the two people Bass most wants to bang on earth: Miles and Rachel, and for some reason this made me laugh and laugh and laugh. I don't really think that's true, but he does have a lot of chemistry with Rachel and Miles and now Charlie.

Rachel, Miles, and Bass is a ship I've enjoyed in the past. Does it have a name? Maybe I should ship the foursome of my favorite characters. It's a little disturbing given Rachel and Charlie but...

THANK YOU. I've been struggling with this since pretty much the beginning of the show. It would be a perfect foursome if only only Charlie wasn't Rachel's and maybe Miles' daughter.

Anyone can point me in the direction of Bass/Rachel/Miles fic? I could really use it to help me survive until tomorrow.

I have a REALLLLY smutty Bass/Rachel/Miles on AO3, but I can't link to it from work for reasons you can imagine. ;) It's called In this Glass Capsule. I am rather proud of the level of smuttiness it sustained for ~ 8 chapters, if I remember correctly. ;) I can link to it later tonight if you have trouble finding it, since it is older.

Found it, thank you! :D

I was actually on AO3 right now looking for something to read and picked your R&R but eight chapters of Bass/Rachel/Miles smuttiness wins for now :D

In this Glass Capsule is much better. R&R is meaningless Miloe fluff. ;)

Beware, the boys are torturing Rachel...and then each other...perhaps I should have warned about that in advance. *shameface*

No worries, I can always stop if it's something I'm not comfortable with. Also, that Sylvia Plath poem you used is perfect, there's no going back for me now, I have to know what happens. :)

I hope so, they really screwed the show over by moving it to Wednesday at 8 (!) in a line up of procedurals. I didn't expect it to keep 'The Voice' lead in in S2 (though I definitely didn't expect them to give the Tuesday one to Chicago Fire, rather than a new show) and I'm glad it's not on Thursdays at 10, but they could have at least put it an hour later or something.

The ratings aren't good, they're not stabilizing and it makes me worried for Revolution's future, especially when the show seems to be improving.

You're missing Ben in there and then I'd agree. I'm not saying Charlie isn't her own person, but she can be cold and pragmatic like mom, she can be idealistic like dad and she definitely has Miles' brashness and snark. But yeah, that description is LOL worthy, it's like: "I like Miles, I like Rachel, oh look- a person who is both? I WANT NOW!!! GIMME!!!"

Rachel, Miles, and Bass is a ship I've enjoyed in the past. Does it have a name? Maybe I should ship the foursome of my favorite characters. It's a little disturbing given Rachel and Charlie but...

You know what- I really don't know if anyone really name Rachel/Miles/Bass and that's kinda strange, cause chemistry all around and nobody is related. Yeah, even if I ever got over my issues with incest for Miles/Charlie, I'd never ship Rachel/Charlie. But like I said, I'm a platonic shipper mostly, so gimme all the Miles-Bass-Charlie-Rachel scenes where they're locked up somewhere/on their own and I'll be happy to sit back and watch them interact.
