{ re: NCIS S5 finale. }

Wait until tomorrow? Pfffft. Yeah right.

This was basically perfect. I loved the whole thing, and I have a LOT to say. Let's add this to the list of pivotal episodes, yeah? Because: yeah.

A lot of this is going to link back to 'pivotal' episodes through all four seasons (Ari arc; Ziva's episodes; La Grenouille). A lot is also going to key into I am not a blind man which was my femgen entry about a year ago. I've been thinking about Ziva a lot since I went back and watched all of season 3 and the way that all leads up to Recoil (and eventually to Judgement Day) is some fairly impressive arc-work. Unfortunately, I think a lot of it is unintentional but hey, that's what negative space is all about. Fill in the gaps, everyone, that's what fandom does.

Judgement Day is going to get a post all of its own because the parallels there are too huge for this one.

Oh god, oh god. What comes next? (You know, I really need to write that Ziva and Jenny backstory already because the show doesn't do that relationship justice.) (Also: my emotional investment is really pretty excessive.)

Obviously this is not all of what needs saying. But I'm a bit tired, lols, and also I am forgetting details. Which is okay. Because it's time to go and rewatch season 5. Season of secrets, season of resolutions. Or not.

{ rhythm is a-dancing. }

So, once upon a time there was this MARVELLOUS creation called THUNDERBIRDS where by these five puppets in spaceships saved the world from various mishaps, including an evil man with big hairy eyebrows. One of the puppets' friends was called Brains. He has a big head (scary) and big glasses (smash. ing.) And lo, but we loved him.

Ladies and... ladies! I present to you: THE BEST THING IN THE WORLD EVER.
