Gunn: Well, how horrible is this thing? Lorne: I haven't read the Book of Revelations lately, but if I was searching for adjectives, I'd probably start there.

Closed Film and TV threads

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.

Actually they could easily get him in new clothes that suggest his origins

What would be the in-show reason for making that effort? I can't see Ichabod caring enough to learn eBay, or anyone to help him. I can see him in modern but fussy clothes, but that would have its own merits--nodding to the War just looks complicated.

Give him jeans and plaid! Loosen his ponytail!

(and then cross over with SPN)

All is well that ends in pizza.

Oh no, not his ponytail, he shares that with Abbie. They have the same hairdo.

Maybe he could keep the boots, change into jeans and shirt, and get a long coat. Hmm. Trenchcoat?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

MAYBE HE CAN STAY IN THE SAME CLOTHES AND CONTINUE TO LOOK CUTE. /handwavium keeps 200 year old clothes fresh and clean!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Who is paying his way in the present?

Did he have tenure at Oxford in the 18th century?

The spell Katrina did not only takes care of his body but his clothes! Maybe that's her favorite look on him and he keeps trying to change clothes and they always morph into that outfit.

Oooh! Certainly someone at Oxford acknowledges him, and he may be assuming his room and board is some version of military support, and Abbie has had other things on her mind, and someone (else) mysterious is covering his bills and everyone thinks somebody else has taken care of it!

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

He did look to be covered in salt or something similar when he first woke up. If Katrina's spell can keep someone in a state of stasis for 230 years, I have no problem with it similarly preserving his clothing.

I assume he deposited a penny into a savings account in 1776 and is currently living off the accumulated interest. t / Try Handwavium Bank's new interest-free checking!

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

I vote Jilli guest stars as Ichabod's personal stylist to find him some slightly fresher period-appropriate clothing.

OKAY I LIKE THIS IDEA.
