And it's been pretty well established that Booth is very much an all or nothing guy. When he's in, he's all in and he expects the same in return.
I think that's going to be the neat thing about this next evolution in his relationship with Brennan. He declared his love to her, had it rebuffed, and resolutely moved on, shutting that door behind himself. Not even her realization of her feelings was enough to make him turn away from the path he'd chosen. He's not one who's accustomed to going back and revisiting his past, but this season, in many ways, has been building to that. He's revisiting his past as a sniper and the man he was then; he's going to be revisiting his relationship and feelings about Brennan at some point. It's really nifty character development stuff.

Yeah, but anyone with a brain would have known that Hannah was not all in. In for the moment, yes, but not all in.
I hate hate hate when someone devalues a good relationship by trying to force it into being a forever relationship. If you break up with her because it's not going to be forever, that's one thing. But she never misled you. You're just being an ass. And I can't wrap my head around tossing the ring either, especially after they made such noise over how much it cost. It makes him seem dumber, not more of a romantic.
Watched nu!CM last night, and I think the I Told You So speech Forrest Whittaker gave the bad guy put it over the top for me. It was so juvenile. I'm just not interested. I can't really tell most of the team apart. It's like a low end mothership episode.

I know. I've wondered about that. How he couldn't have seen it. Only thing I can think is that since she did make the big move from being in a war zone to D.C. and the relatively tame stories she was getting there, it may have blinded him and led him into a false sense of security/expectation. He was genuinely shocked when she turned up in D.C.-- he'd resigned himself to the fact that they would have a long-distance relationship, that she was wedded to her career and the adrenaline rush of being in the world's hot spots, blah, blah. That she made that sort of transition for him, without his asking, must have been a heady thing for Seeley.
In shallow Criminal Minds News, I miss Garcia's red hair.
I watched Law & Order LA tonight. Terrible.
Sadly, everything but House and Chicago Code is reruns tonight. But the Castle is the Laura Pepron studying for Nikki Heat episode, so that's a fun rerun.
House: Wow. Quite an episode. I'm very interested in seeing where we go from here.
Whitefonting in case people haven't seen it yet.
Cuddy, thought she had Cancer, which she didn't. Lots of fun dream sequences including a musical number. House started taking vicodin again, and House and Cuddy broke up.
