You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness
my goodness!!
so, me & the Sis finished all 3 seasons of Spartacus. Well, we're all caught up on S3 at least.

I really, really, REALLY miss Andy. The new guy is okay, but I feel like I’m watching a different show almost, that sense of continuity and attachment to a particular character is a little gone. I’m also massively distracted by new!Naevia, the old actress was… different. Prettier, not that it really matters, but I dunno, I miss the old Naevia too.
Crixus continues to be awesome, as does Agron, yessss. I continue to HATE ASHER with the loathing of a THOUSAND SUNS, who the HELL does he think he is taking advantage of Lucretia?! Mira is pretty neat, I don’t really like her as a love interest but boy can she is quite handy with a dagger and bow now, I like it when she kicks Roman ass. I’m kind of bothered by Gannicus because such an apathetic killjoy, I wish he would be more rebellious and idealistic like Spartacus. And Oenomaus continues to be my favourite, except I am SO SAD that his heart is broken now that he knows what his wife did with Gannicus. Ilythia is totally reaping what she sowed now, karmic retribution. She hated her husband and wanted a better one, and now the tables have turned.
Anyway, yes. Good times. :D

seriously. i have many feelings on this show. like... all of the feelings.
and YES. I miss Andy and Old!Naevia.
and I just find that new!Spartacus has changed so drastically from old!Spartacus. I mean, i get that he's changed anyway, but... I dunno. He sorta feels like a different character. They BOTH do. They're just so different from the originals its hard to think that these people are playing the same characters.
OMG AGRON. he's totally my new fave. I adore him to BITS FOREVER. HE'S THE CUTEST AND I WANT HIM TO LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVE. and i want him to be HAPPY FOREVER WITH HIS LITTLE BOYFRIEND. BECAUSE THEY BRING JOY TO MY HEART AND THEY'RE THE ONLY TRULY GOOD THING ON THAT SHOW RIGHT NOW AND I DON'T WANT IT TO DISAPPEAR. so. i hope that happens.
And I still totally totally love Crixus. he's still frickin awesome. (and omg i love that he and Sparty call each other 'Brother'. it makes me gleeful and happy!!) OMG ASHUR. I DIDN'T MENTION HIM BECAUSE HE'S NOT WORTH THE TIME TO SPARE WORDS. HE'S AN AWFUL, CONNIVING LITTLE SOB WHO IS TOTALLY GOING TO GET HIS IN THE END. but he keeps WINNING. which sucks, but the payback will be delicious. thats what i keep telling myself. He's going to get his. and it will be glorious. Both Crixus AND Oenomaus have debts to be paid.
OMG. When Ashur and Lucretia first teamed up, i was terrified for Capua. They're both SO DEVIOUS and CUNNING and just... holy shit. Like, EVERYTHING would be a lie between them AND around them. So i thought it was going to be terrifyingly awesome. But now its just terrifying. because of effing Ashur. he violated his (ex)Domina - but still. He's just a creepy little bastard and i'm going to LAUGH when he eventually dies. (wow, that sounded really dark, but that doesn't make it any less true)
Mira!!! I think she totally kicks ass. I love that she's so badass. BUT YES. I AM IN TOTAL AGREEMENT WITH YOU. i'm meh about her being a love interest. even though - before i had written up this whole thing about how i didn't buy Spartacus being loving towards her, but I wasn't paying complete attention when they were on screen together. So after rewatching bits of each ep, I can see that he does care for her. But... I think it pales to what he felt for Sura. I don't think ANYONE could ever replace Sura. She was his reason for EVERYTHING. I don't think Mira could fill her shoes quite so quickly. But i DO think Mira's a total badass.
I hope that Gannicus will eventually be on their side. I get how he doesn't REALLY care about their cause, since he's already free, but... I think he'll come around. I'm really really hoping he and Oenomaus make up. Because i DO love Oenomaus, and I want him to be happy again, and I want him to have his beffie back. I want them to be bros again. Even with the whole 'i kinda had sex with your wife and oh, btw, i was totally in love with her too' thing in the way. But Oenomaus and Crixus have always been faves of mine. So i want them to be happy. they DESERVE it.
dude. Illithya. I just... I don't know if I should feel bad for her or not. Because, hello, she did kill that other chick in a passionate rage - Licinia (i love imdb). And then she went all crazy and turned on Lucretia and Quintas - for good reason since they were just using her - but then she was the one that essentially killed Varro.
Ok, decision made, bitch totally got what she deserved. No, she deserves worse.
see? so many feelings...
