I’ve Gotta Read This

Reblogging before it’s too late

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine "Past Tense, Pt. 1"

I never looked at it like that. You’ve just changed my whole worldview

me: *just trying to go to bed*

brain: but REMEMBER when snake eyes thought duke and scarlett liked each other and in a desparate and impulsive attempt to gain her attention he broke into a high-security facility just to find security camera footage explaining her dad's disappearance.

me: GO TO BED

Yep, that’s it. That’s the show.

Graphic vibes

I wanna play as Snake Eyes in GTA 5, because he is always committing grand theft auto.

Zartan's motorcycle in ep. 4

That tow truck in the same episode

Flint's jeep at the end of ep. 2 and beginning of ep. 3

The coyote in ep. 5

Their arm-warmer/glove things are everything to me.

@snake-eyes-official remember this? I don’t. kidding.

love this !! unfortunately for me tho i took the mulder route and became insane and deranged

I know debbie and cecil are a doomed romance and I love me some angst, but I need some cute fluff. Any head cannons on flustered Cecil or just things Debbie does that makes Cecil (secretly) flustered?

cecil is a difficult man to fluster but when it does happen he's pretty good at hiding it. his artifical skin doesn't show color underneath the way normal skin does, so blushing is not really an issue for him. there are other tells though (especially if you can read him as well as debbie grayson does)

he can't handle eye contact when he's flustered, despite the intense staredowns he frequently gets into. he's got to focus on something else or just stare at the wall. his posture gets stiffer. he talks faster, less time between thoughts and words, and misspeaks more often (we see some of this when he's talking to debbie in the show).

his hands shake - he hates this especially. maybe he'll put them in his pockets. maybe he'll adjust his tie or fidget with his lapel pin or cufflinks or... something. maybe he'll fake getting a call in his earpiece. anything to distract from the feeling. he's GOT to be professional, damn it

i'm having trouble thinking of specifics for debbie right now, but i think it's just a lot of little things. i think the realization that he's paying such close attention to her and her mannerisms is what flusters him... the fact that he has these feelings he really shouldn't have, and the fact that he actually wants her to like him, as juvenile as that sounds

they seem physically comfortable enough for him to know when to reach out and hold her steady or put a hand on her shoulder, but he's cautious with it. debbie is more impulsive and when she reaches for him, it does catch him off guard. he's not used to being held

other things i like to think about:

debbie tying his tie and cecil returning the favor by fastening her necklace. the way she tilts her head and sweeps her hair away from her neck is... something

awaiting updates on world-shattering events and debbie takes his hand in hers to stop them both from shaking. no words, they don't even have to look at each other

debbie gently touching the side of his face where his scar is, moving her thumb over it

cecil putting his jacket over debbie's shoulders and her pulling it close

lol
