So that was basically The Martian, but blue. Fortunately, I love The Martian, so that was great!
Oh, Fitz.
Pleeeeease don't let her be pregnant. Pleeeease. I don't think it's too likely, given the focus of the show, but TV has hurt me before.
I hadn't even thought of pregnancy. But I see Jemma as someone who would use long-term birth control, just for biological efficiency.
Dana, I have the same concerns.
But I see Jemma as someone who would use long-term birth control, just for biological efficiency.
Yeah, I would hope that SHIELD agents who go out in the field, which she does at this point, would have some kind of implant. But as I say, I don't trust TV.
I'm just picturing Will as Rick Blaine to Fitz's Victor Lazlo.
(Standing in front of the new Bus in the fog.) “I’m saying this because it’s true. Inside of us, we both know you belong with Fitz. You’re part of Fitzsimmons, the thing that keeps him going. If that plane leaves the ground and you’re not with him, you’ll regret it. Maybe not today. Maybe not tomorrow, but soon and for the rest of your life.”
“…But what about us?”
“We’ll always have our time on the dark world. We didn’t have... we... we lost it until you came to back to get me. We got it back last night. But you have loved him long before me, and you will still love him when I've gone.”
“… I said I would never leave you there…”
“And you never would. But I’ve got a job to do, too. Where I’m going, you can’t follow. What I’ve got to do, you can’t be any part of. Jemma, I’m no good at being noble, but it doesn’t take much to see that the problems of three little people don’t amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world. I think we all understand that. ”
"This is not the way I pictured...."
"....it never will be, NASA wants me, SHIELD needs you. Goodbye Jemma, I'll be thinking about you."
(Will kisses Jemma as Fitz suddenly becomes very interested in a hand strap in the cargo bay."
"Here's Looking at you, kid."
Unfortunately I never saw Ilsa and Viktor as having anything but an intellectual romance, with obligatory sex because that's what you did.
Maybe Daisy--or Hunter!--can point out that "love the one you're stranded on a desert planet with" isn't really a good basis for a relationship.
In any case, as soon as she saw the flare, she knew Fitz had come for her, and Will knew who her thoughts always went to. I bet she hasn't internalized a connection between "Fitz" and "romance", and is primarily in "Will's important to me, we can't leave him stranded there with something that kills" mode.
Just read an article that re-emphasized that NASA sent Will et al. through the portal in 2001. Monolith. 2001. Duh!
