This here's a recipe for unpleasantness.

Mal ,'Objects In Space'


Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon  

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.

Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

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

But they'd just engaged in a massive fight, and Carl, Lori and Memfault got separated

They walk past T's body and Carol's scarf, go outside, say that those two have died, Rick says "That doesn't mean Lori et al are dead", then Bela walks out with the baby and Carl has the dead eyes and people start literally falling out.

Including not-related-to Lori people, which is the bit that seemed kinda callous.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I'm a sick wench; I was kinda hoping the baby would be a zombie-baby.

And I STILL think Bela (SPN, that's totes how I think of her, too) should have shot Dead!Lori, not Carl.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I was kinda hoping the baby would be a zombie-baby.

yes. we are sick together. I even insisted that it was and Beau talked me off the ledge: "no way it is a zombie baby, the baby has to be born first!"

Grr.

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

and people start literally falling out.

who else besides Rick and Maggie? when they panned around everyone else just kind of seemed in shock, not devastated like Rick. Maggie was sobbing because she essentially killed Lori.

It is really devastating, but there was zero reaction for Carol and T. I would be bitching about that anyway, but the fact that the bawling started (I'm going with four of them crying or equivalent, and jaws dropping with the others as opposed to shrugging from before) for death #3, and it didn't look like a cumulative thing from where I was sitting, but more like a "Oh, well, that's really sad, tho" thing.

COLD.

I agree that the lack of reaction about T-Dog and Carol is pretty heinous. though, i do think Daryl showed a bit of emotion when he picked up her scarf.

no, it's just Carl(who only lets a single tear slide down his cheek), Rick and Maggie who are crying. see? [link]

I'm standing by my measurement of Glenn as crying-adjacent rather than agog-adjacent. Three crying, one equivalent.

we'll have to agree to disagree on that. i see him as trying to comfort Maggie.

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

That doesn't make him not really upset, though.

he didn't look upset to me though. he looked like he was trying to calm Maggie.
