I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

well...i agree that he's a romantic sap, but at the very end he wasn't lashing out. he was when he marched Heidi out of the Barrell, but not when he kissed Jaye on the cheek and proceeded to re-marry Heidi. it wasn't about lashing out at that point. he'd just, sort of, resigned himself to being "that guy" that tries to make things right. i just don't see how re-marrying her will do so. they're still married in the eyes of law. so...why go through that again? why not just see if the marriage can be saved?

i'm guessing it was for dramatic effect, but i just didn't feel it.

oh and before i forget. i'm loving Aaron and Mahandra.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

When he confirmed with her where the chapel was, I thought that was pointed.

Eric married her again because he's that guy, but also because Tim was writing, and he was crushing poor Jaye's happy. Bastard.

he's a big old romantic sap

Clearly. HE is where the schmoop lives.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

I hate Aaron and Mahandra.

A lot.

I like them both individually but I think it's BULLSHIT that they are together, like, wham. Especially because prior to Safety Canary they had at most 1 scene together.

Bullshit.

I like the how they act all fake sneaky (and Aaron, so bad with the skulking), but I'm still bothered by how they got together. 'Cause lame.

edited to add... sorry... It occurs to me though that most of you haven't had the pleasure of seeing the skulking. But he tries to and is adorably miserable at the skulking.

well...mostly i was referring to them individually, but i also liked them together. i like that she's squicked because he's almost like a brother and i like that he doesn't give a damn about it.

it is sudden for us, but these are two people who have known each other for almost their entire lives. i'm guessing that Aaron has had a bit of a thing for Mahandra for a while based on their interaction in Safety Canary. of course this is without seeing it onscreen and just reading it. so...YAMV.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

But none of that was shown. Or alluded to. Or written about prior to Safety Canary. Hence the weirdness of it all. It's just so very random.

I was fine when existence had no meaning. Meaninglessness in a universe that has no meaning -- that I get. But meaninglessness in a universe with meaning? What does that mean?

She melts the poor lion? No! I could kinda see it coming, though.

I've only read about the Aaron/Mahandra relationship, and I agree there was nothing leading up to it, but I think it's funny. I don't really understand why Eric would remarry Heidi, but I can go with it because he really is a nice guy and I guess he thinks this is the right thing to do.

How's Jewel Staite as Heidi? Is she wonderfully evil?

I so want to see these episodes... but no, maybe I'll just watch Crime Dog through Lovesick Ass when they get here and pretend the show ended after that. ;)

But he isn't that nice of a guy. "I'm over my wife. I'm going to pursue you. When she comes back, I'll be against getting back together again. I'll admit that I love you. But I'm still going to marry her again." That's not the set of actions of a nice guy.

Enh. Too much cognitive dissonance. Her costuming, though, is wonderfully evil. Her shoes alone are like the 2nd circle of hell.
