A pre-blackout flashback, yay!!!
And the Mexico trip is still on, GOOD.
So, another day, another Revolution theory. I have this thing that's been sitting in the back of my mind for some time now, I need to get it out. Every few episodes our team gets new clothes, Charlie got pretty new top in the last one, Miles has a new shirt, an assortment of tops for Rachel. Hell, they even get some nice leather jackets in the next ep. David's FB fan page posted this pic of him on the set taken in October. 2.06 was filmed in early September (thank you Getty for putting dates of when a photo was taken, not released!) that's a month and 2/3 episodes earlier. He's still wearing the same set of clothes we've been seeing since the premiere. Not that I'm not enjoying the look but can't they really find the guy a new shirt?! He died and was buried in those clothes! It has to have some bigger meaning. That makes me wonder, what is Rachel exactly planning on doing with him after she digs him out? Keeping him a prisoner they way he did with her? It wouldn't make sense as he's supposed to help them fight the Patriots. Plus Miles knows and I don't think he would be in on the idea. Is his mental state so bad? Do they plan on keeping him hidden in some hole for 3 episodes? I'm sorry but that's a waste of a character! (Unless Charlie is sitting there with him, I could go with that, though I wonder if they planning on telling her he's alive at all, cause no one tells Charlie anything).
So that's it, I could on something or it's just me focusing on details no one else notices.
So, I've been thinking about this. Well, he's lying shirtless under a blanket in promo photos for 1 x 07, so maybe Rachel washed his clothes after digging him up? Or made someone else do it.
He was in a coffin; his clothes weren't necessarily soiled. But I like the thought of Rachel washing his clothes for him. *nudge, nudge* I could use some Rass. They're hot. I just assumed Bass was shirtless because he was in bed. I like to sleep shirtless too. TMI?
That's true, though considering all the travelling and fighting he'd done in that clothes, they could still use a washing. And Rass is are hot. See, I assumed the opposite, because I prefer sleeping dressed in something, I get cold easily (*gets back to you with TMI, lol ;)* )
But I like the thought of Rachel washing his clothes for him. *nudge, nudge* I could use some Rass. They're hot.
Me too, me too! I haven't read a good Rache/Bass in ages (they were my first Rev ship!)
They're hot. I just assumed Bass was shirtless because he was in bed.
Now that you say it, it's kind of interesting... Who gets him into that bed? Not Rachel on her own if he's still unconscious. Who, why and how gets him out of that shirt, Miles?!
So David looks hot there. And everywhere. YUM. Thank you for sharing.
He's still wearing the same set of clothes we've been seeing since the premiere.
Well sure. The Mathesons had settled down in Willoughby enough for Miles to take an apartment - they must have also purchased some clothes. Miles basically wore the same two shirts all last season when he was on the road; they must have been what he brought. Bass is likewise hoofing it without enough stability to buy new clothes.
That makes me wonder, what is Rachel exactly planning on doing with him after she digs him out? Keeping him a prisoner they way he did with her? It wouldn't make sense as he's supposed to help them fight the Patriots. Plus Miles knows and I don't think he would be in on the idea. Is his mental state so bad? Do they plan on keeping him hidden in some hole for 3 episodes? I'm sorry but that's a waste of a character!
I don't know. The writers have been all tease-y about this, like it's not going to be what we thought it was, and Rachel wasn't necessarily saving him and blah blah. Writers: just stop. You annoy us! ;P But I doubt she'd have brought him new clothes either way. I doubt also he'll just sit in a hole, since Miles wants his help, but Bass did look rather wrecked in those photos. Depending on how he was saved, his body could be severely taxed, or it could just be him psychologically suffering - everything he's just been through was an emotional rush. Miles has been very MIA from ep descriptions lately too, so I suspect they'll cook up something together. Maybe Miles can apologize to Bass for THINGS while he's at it. ;) In any case, the writers waste characters all the time, so we won't be too surprised if they do that somehow...*sigh*
So that's it, I could on something or it's just me focusing on details no one else notices.
Oh no, I noticed. I think it's fair to say that most of us on this Comm obsess about the details of Rev more than is healthy or advisable. You never have to be chagrined for noticing stuff. ;)

I rather wish that they hadn't released the spoiler pic of Bass for S2E07 and shown him in the preview for next week. I'm happy to know he's alive. However, I think I'd almost prefer the suspense of waiting the week to find out. Of course I could just go back to avoiding spoilers....naaaaahhhhhh!!!!!
But when the writers say inane things like "Who says she saved him?" they just sound clueless. If Rachel didn't "save" him, why would she have any reason to dig up the gravesite? What does she want to do, put a stake through his heart to make sure he stays dead?
No, I think it was valantha47 who said over in the episode discussion post that Rachel saves Monroe to prove to Charlie that Rachel heard her when Charlie explained what transpired between her and Bass. I'm not saying Rachel likes it, or even agrees with what she is doing. But the pain on Rachel's face when Charlie went first to Aaron for a hug was heart wrenching, then Rachel screwed it up even further by lashing out at Charlie rather than being happy to see her home, as Gene would point out later.
So, yes, I do think Rachel might save Bass for sake of her own relationship with Charlie.
I think it's fair to say that most of us on this Comm obsess about the details of Rev more than is healthy or advisable.
Oh yes. I also think Rachel saved Bass for Charlie. I'm just saying the writers are implying there's some bigger surprise about it all. But whatever. The writers are a hot mess. I feel like they've sort of fractured the fandom into Miles haters, disappointed Bass fangirls, generally irate fans about the origins of the Republic, etc. I hope they're happy! I'm certainly not. The Miles hate has ruined all the Tumblrs I used to check for pretty Miloe pictures, and the fact that the writers contradicted so much of early season 1 has just left me a sad, empty shell of my former fanself.
For once in my life, I do not feel compelled to write any fanfic about my feels either. I feel callous and defeated. Even so, I'm looking forward to our watch session on Wednesday. This is the first Kripke show I've ever suffered through, and let me say: Jesus, man. Calm the F down. Things don't need to be this insanely horrific to be interesting. We're in this dark, apocalyptic phase of entertainment, and it's wearing on me; even though I think life can be a giant pile of shit, I also think humans can be beautiful and rise above it, so how about we focus on some nice things for a change? More Marlie hand holding for instance.
Sorry. That rant had been stored up partially from seeing the self-congratulatory state of my field over the weekend. Oh right, as if we're the first generation to really delve into the "dark side" of war, while everyone else has just been romanticizing war for generations. *eye roll* Humans are ugly and humans are beautiful. Do your part for the latter and then have a glass of wine in celebration. Moving on...
And that rather sums up the show, doesn't it? We've seen ugly and beautiful sides for all of our major characters. Kripke likes to say the show is about family, and it is, but it's really about the human condition and how things aren't black or white, but multiple shades of grey.

Here have a happy laughing Billy. His grin always cheers me up.
Oh thanks. I'll always take laughing Billy, especially from you, since I know you love him, too. Don't worry about me, I just got verbally attacked by a couple of obnoxious people at the conference over the weekend, because that's what academics do! Yay. One of them even tried to physically intimidate me, because he's senior to me and I rejected him for our subfield's main journal (and then he used my rejection comments to re-frame his argument as if he'd written it that way in the first place, and I wouldn't remember!) That's nice, right? Remind me again why I do what I do? It's just so fun!
I'm sorry about your conference woes! That guy sounds like a real dick - physical intimidation at a conference!? That sucks!
I'm still so junior in my field and in a odd side field so I haven't really had any issues. I've also lucked out 'cause the one guy known through out the field as a misogynistic jerk who loves to harass really junior women about their science wasn't at the first two conferences I was at so I missed that particular form of 'hazing'. I'm always so drained by conferences. My advisor always comes back so excited and full of new ideas, and I always come back with a brain stuffed with faces and snippets of 15-minute talks (no one can explain their stuff in 15 minutes, and basically only Nobel Laureates get 30-minute talks).
Here's a big sexy Billy to go with the happy Billy. (I just learned how to add photos to threads *claps hands excitedly*)
Yay! Something about this photo draws my eyes to face and then crotch. And I'm not complaining about either. I love all the Tao Ruspoli photos and may be a minor stalker of his work. Polly seems to be one of his muses, too. And we know how I obsess over her... Plus this particular guitar is so sexy. I was just playing some Billy on the piano. When's he gonna come out with more songs?
I've also lucked out 'cause the one guy known through out the field as a misogynistic jerk who loves to harass really junior women about their science wasn't at the first two conferences I was at so I missed that particular form of 'hazing'.
He sounds like someone who needs to be put in a dunk tank. The problem for me is that because of my uber famous advisor and the fact that I was one of the pioneers in my subfield, I have an odd amount of control over my dominion for being pre-tenure. Of course, that doesn't go over well with certain people. Apparently, I've started to get my first batch of outrageous reviews on my book (like one suggested my advisor ghost wrote my book for me. HAHA.) I don't read them, but every once in a while, people feel compelled to share them with me. Oh dear.
Back to Tao, have you seen the pictures of Polly and Bluesy when she was a baby? Bluesy looked so much like Billy when she was a plump little babe. Awww. If I knew how to post a pic, I'd put my fave here.
The placement of the guitar is pointing to the crotch. Probably why our eyes go there ;) I really like the decorative stuff at the top. The Tao Ruspoli photos are so pretty…
:)
He sounds like someone who needs to be put in a dunk tank. For sure, rumors say he claims he's doing it because women scientists are all too thin-skinned and we need to toughen up… I really don't think pointing out controls and experiments that need to be done on a third year graduate student's poster help anything (especially when they're written in her future directions…)
Of course, that doesn't go over well with certain people. I can see how that could happen *rolls eyes* academics…

No I haven't, I'll look later, or if you press the button on the reply tool bar to the right of the face for linking to LJ users you can browse for and upload images.
Mayhem and Miles' blankey 'cause it makes me happy ;)
My attempt to paste got spammed, so I took it back! Just go to his photo gallery entitled Polly & Bluesy, and you'll see what I mean. Humans shouldn't be this cute. This is what happens when beautiful people procreate.
My attempt to paste got spammed, so I took it back! Bummer.
I'd seen the pic of Billy and Bluesy before, but the two photos of Polly and Bluesy in the tub are soooo adorable! One cute tot. All wide-eyed and chubby cheeked!
Hot-poolside-Billy bids you a daylight savings time bedtime adieu.
