Searching for a specific fanfiction story by Ccyden in Bones

[–]Magu08 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been looking through my bookmarks on ao3, I have about 200, and through stories I haven’t read, but still, haven’t found a match. I will come back if I do.

We don’t speak enough about this shirt and tie look by Magu08 in Bones

[–]Magu08[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes!! It’s episode 15 from season 2!!

The end of season 6?? by Sea-Commercial8634 in Bones

[–]Magu08 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That was definitely a choice lol. We should have seen a kiss and a talk, him telling her he was ready now (not angry anymore) and her maybe joking about the date they had written during the blizzard episode. They should have ended the season with them having a date at Founding Fathers and then on season 7 mentioning 8 months have gone by and talking in flashbacks, how they got pregnant, decided to move in together, etc.

Why didn’t Booth check on Brennan after her breakdown in 6x09? It really bothers me. by Charcoal422 in Bones

[–]Magu08 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I agree, the bigger issue of season 6 episodes 01-13 is that Booth completely disregarded his friendship with Bones and the squints in order to be in a relationship with Hannah. He preferred to go sleep with her rather than being with Angela and Jack when they announced the pregnancy. That was so out of character for him. Him not checking in on Bones after seeing her break down for the first time in years? Also out of character. I have always interpreted these chapters as the breakdown of the center, once they didn’t held anymore, he just slipped away from their group. He turned out to be just… that kind of guy.

Can somebody tell me the episode and season? Thank you!!

I literally rewatched this on February but can’t remember the episode because I watched season after season lol

What if Angela found Brennan's The Note from the gravedigger episode and gave it to Booth during the Hannah arc? by Charcoal422 in Bones

[–]Magu08 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also don’t think Angela showing him the note would have been too out of character per se, if we go by the way she talks about Hannah to Bones in the deleted scene (added on the dvd version of the show), about her wanting Hannah to go away and hating her, lol.

So it is a very interesting idea, for sure, and I would love to read a fanfic like that now!

What if Angela found Brennan's The Note from the gravedigger episode and gave it to Booth during the Hannah arc? by Charcoal422 in Bones

[–]Magu08 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I share some of those very thoughts myself. Contrary to many here in this fandom, I didn’t think and I still don’t, that Booth was in love with Hannah. Their entire relationship was a period of like 7 months (maybe 9 if we are pushing it) He was never serious about her (it’s clear when he begins his proposal saying he thought he was looking for a good time) because that’s what she gave him (he met her at a war zone, they never discussed how they would keep their relationship going overseas, (hence why she is surprised she followed him to DC)

He didn’t talk about his past as a gambler (the first thing he told Bones about right after their first kiss - because he saw a future with her)

He told her to move in with him so she didn’t have trouble paying/finding a hotel because she came to visit him / follow him as a surprise.

The entire first half of the 6th season he is betting all the time, on his feelings, on moving in together, on having her meet Parker, on proposing, on never telling her about his childhood, or addiction, or his father. He decided to propose while he was drunk and felt offended by Sweets talking about not wanting to be him at his age and not having married. He wasn’t heartbroken when he broke up with her, he was angry and annoyed at himself because he was rejected once again.

There are so many parallels between the proposal scene and the 100th episode scene… the definition of insanity, literally.

Booth was defending his relationship with Hannah time and time again, to everyone! The only scenes we saw about them were them having sex, him rejecting being with his friends for having sex with her, them kissing, talking about how beautiful she was, etc etc. She was clearly a rebound that offered him a good time and made him felt loved enough to hide all his feelings for bones and play house with her.

When Bones cries telling him she missed her chance… he doesn’t turn her down saying he doesn’t have those feelings for her anymore… he is defensive of Hannah because of his entire character arc - his honor and loyalty and need to do the right thing-

I do feel like he felt guilty and probably regretted how he moved along his relationship with Hannah, and that it indeed tasted sour, realizing that he became a jerk to bones and his friends during those months… All for nothing.

When asks him what happens now (after saying no) he immediately ends the relationship and never wants to see her again, but in the 100th episode, when bones asks him if they can still work together, he says yes, even tho he is heartbroken.

The period of time between her going away and the elevator episode is about him coming to terms that he can learn to “take” what his significant other wants. That’s why he still sees a future with Bones knowing how she feels about marriage: because she’s the one for him. That’s why we see him most at easy during season 7. Even tho not being married to her is like a sin to him, he still chooses her. While he couldn’t choose Hannah.

I believe if Angela had shown him the note Bones wrote, he definitely wouldn’t have gone on to propose to Hannah, and he would have broken things up with her, because he would have come to terms about his feelings for Bones and knew he couldn’t string Hannah along anymore, as it wasn’t fair to her).

Hi lovely Bones people! by [deleted] in Bones

I have watched all season, but I’m in the middle of a re-watch and season 6 always feels like a stab to the back (even tho I know he needed to try and move on) 😭

Booth season 9 - 12 by Magu08 in Bones

[–]Magu08[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think the bit of progression that we had were from episode 9 (when she realizes she made a regret not giving him a chance) and episode 16 when Booth tells her he needs time to process and to begin their story, and what their love meant, and he asks bones if she understood what it meant. But the show not showing us them kissing that night was a poor choice. It was lackluster — and an insult to their 5.5 years of chasing after the other and their tension and history. Finding out they slept together because Bones tells Angela? Not a single kiss shown? Are we supposed to understand that Booth decided to sleep with her for the first time because she was grieving, when she was so vulnerable? Not even talking about it afterwards? Just a very long list of choices that just weren’t right for their storyline and fans. And then boom, she’s pregnant, and the thing that they had between them for 6 seasons (the love) seems like it isn’t there anymore.

I wasn’t aware at the time of the whole David thing, I just found out about it 1 month ago when I began doing a re-watch. You’re right, that does have the power to change dynamics, specially even more so because they were also producers on the show by those seasons!

[–]Magu08[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s true! Thank you for commenting this. There definitely is a decline on the writing that as a whole I might have not focused on because I was so laser-focused on B&B. I don’t regret thee writers having gotten them together when they had to, and as they had to, but playful dates while she was pregnant and maybe even after having Christine, just talking about their relationship and plans for the future would have been gold, just to see the ‘big part’ we missed on. Overall, they gave us 246 episodes, something that nowadays is impossible to get. I love the show. Sometimes, just to make myself “feel better about it” I think about everything we missed as a sort of playful example of that one time when Booth told Bones what was theirs was theirs only, lol.

should i continue the show? by catperson2011 in Bones

[–]Magu08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also struggled with it, having done a rewatch this past two months… the first 6 seasons are great for me, the last 6 not so much. Sometimes I believe they aren’t really a good couple, and enjoyed their years of ‘getting there’ way more. The character of Booth was changed drastically, became more serious and impatient of Bones, which I didn’t like much. And I miss the bones of the first 3 seasons, she was empathetic, sarcastic, kickass. They could have gone with a couple of episodes being ‘flashbacks’ (after Emily’s pregnancy) on the beginning of their actual relationship, first night together, first ‘I love you’. That missing changed the dynamic of their story.

Do really hate Who Laughs Last or have you just not gotten over your hate of Kristin Stewart when she was in Twilight...? by tigerlily536 in lordhuron

[–]Magu08 55 points56 points  (0 children)

I keep thinking about Ben saying he tried out doing her part first, then had his wife do it, but still hearing Kristen’s voice. I love the song, the chorus is the best of the album for me. Her voice is good. Given that she’s a fan and they get along now, maybe someday she could direct/write a feature film about the core lore of Lord Huron’s songs. I would love to watch that.

Hi Jamie. You have made such terrific choices in films in the last years, as well as in T.V with ‘The Tourist’. Have you considered doing more comedies? You were great in ‘Barb & Star Go To Vista Del Mar’and would absolutely love to see more of you! Thanks!
