"I need you to be my emotional compass."

You guys.

+ "I need you to be my emotional compass." For the record? Magnus and Will in this episode? Exactly what I wanted them to be. Exactly how kat_rowe and I have been RP-ing them. Exactly, exactly, exactly, and it's such a fulfilling feeling. I... don't even know what to say.

+ I cried. And cried some more. I started tearing up when they were setting items in the coffin, but cut to "you're my life" and I bawled. Oh God.

+ Druitt returning to murderous traits had to happen. Just sticking to continuity. If he's been teleporting that much, it had to happen. The inevitable. That said, as much as I've been expecting it, don't know entirely how I feel. It's really sad, because he and Magnus won't get any closure between them this way, but maybe that's the point. Closure in season two? For angst-ridden, "you destroyed my heart" Helen and John? No way. Draw it out and keep breaking our hearts, that's the beauty of them.

+ I'm actually loving the Kate and Henry interaction. Ryan and Agam's chemistry is really great. That said, I'm going to bummed at no more Ashley/Henry. I'm not saying this is a replacement ship, it's a different relationship altogether and it's nice. Easy to watch. Easy to laugh to.

+ Amanda Tapping is gorgeous.

+ Robin Dunne is hot.

+ I just wanted to say that I called a lot of this episode. Not in a way that made it less fulfilling to watch, but actually gave me a sense of validation. Like Magnus and Will and the direction of the relationship. Like Magnus hallucinating Ashley and that explaining the promo for 'Eulogy'. Like Druitt relapsing. I don't know. It was kind of fun to piece together from my previous thoughts as I was watching.

+ Damn, guys. Is she gone? Because... if the EM shield became more and more unstable with each teleport by the super vamps, that means, since Ashley and the other vamp were the last ones out, they COULD be somewhere. And no more of her DNA was found in the Sanctuary, she wasn't in the buffer. So she teleported somewhere else and either died on the other side or is out there somewhere. I don't really see how that story line would work, for her to suddenly show up. But we'll have to see, I guess. I'm bummed Ashley is gone because Emilie was growing on me as an actress. I really began to enjoy her work. I do hope she somehow returns to us in the future, and I have faith that if that happens, Damian Kindler the Great will make it be anything but cliche.

+ Did I mention Amanda Tapping and Robin Dunne are fine looking individuals?

+ I just... OMG.

+ This is so random, but Bigfoot's little "aw" when the creature got through into the ventilation system cracked me up thoroughly. Ha.

+ Magnus' flashbacks were so gorgeous, so touching. So mysterious and magical and so Magnus.

+ OKAY I CAN'T THINK OF ANYTHING ELSE. MY HEART HURTS, MY MIND HURTS, BUT OMG. WHAT A GOOD SHOW. THE END. THE ENDDD.
