Snap-fyre - Say Them Each Morning, Hold To Them Tight - Tumblr Blog
Me, watching Drive to Survive for the first time last year hearing Sebastian Vettel say everyone is a Ferrari Fan, even if they’re not: Haha, not me, I barely had any idea this sport even existed, sounds inspiring tho!
Me now, falling to my knees, completely inconsolable in reaction to there not being double Ferrari podiums after watching the 2024 Azerbaijan Grand Prix: Oh. Oh no.
Had to record the race since I wasn't gonna wake up at 5 in the morning. Devestated for Carlos, really would've liked a Ferrari either 1-3 or 2-3 at least, but Oscar had an amazing race.

Ted: 'ITS A MASSIVE YELLOW FAN HOW COULD U MISS IT. HOW COULD ANYONE MISS IT. A TEAM OF EXPERINCED GIRLS AND GUYS CANT SPOT A FAN? WHAT IS THIS DUMB FUCKERY? WHAT IN THE STUPIDNESS IS RHIS? HOW COULD WILLIAMS CALL THEMSELVES A TEAM AFTER THIS HOW CO-'
Alex looks so freaking stressed in season 3. Eye bags up the wazoo. I've never seen someone embody the spirit of a miserable, angry, vengeful wide-eyed wet dog as he does as he's being interrogated by Blunt. I'm positively in love
I do not want to kiss you,
nor to take our clothes off.
But I do want to hold you.
My face against your chest, hands on your back.
To have your hand clasped tightly within mine.
And I want to tell you,
I love you.
I love you.
I love you.
I want to say it all the time.
cannot stop thinking about the french man who during dinner responded to a person asking "should we be naughty and get desert" by pulling a face and going "naughty? it is chocolate, it is not an, uh, threesome"
Alex Rider TV series when it came to designing female antagonists and their hair: Give her...The Bob
Sometimes there’s really nothing you can do in a situation except passive aggressively finish off the rest of the orange juice

Rewriting is so embarrassing and so hard and so satisfying and I both hate and love it but also I just want to be finished already why why why isnt it done.
spending all that time on a drawing only to decide its very ugly
Also TV! Blunt is much less imposing than his book counterpart. He’s still the big boss and scary (that Friend dude who played Alex’s dad is evidence enough of that) but in the show he’s got Ben and Ms. Jones who very obviously don’t agree with him, so they try to help Alex out secretly, and an Alex who’s like ‘you’re ridiculous and I’m gonna do what I have to.’
Something I really enjoy about the Alex Rider series is that it’s not shy about showing Alex’s vulnerability.
Reminder that I haven’t read the books since I was a child and have forgotten a lot, but I’m pretty sure in those Alex was usually portrayed as the typical teenage boy protagonist. He was snarky/sarcastic, gave the bad guys henchmen nicknames, and for the most part he really worked alone. I’m almost finished season 2, but a difference I noticed is that he hasn’t got his all the really cool spy gear (that I was always envious of) he would usually be given at the beginning of missions, and when he was in a bad situation he could only rely on himself to get him out of it. But in the show they took those away, and due to that he really has to rely on people.
Both in season 1 and now in 2 he couldn’t have made it without Kyra (when he gets captured/caught and strapped to a table, then when he impersonates K7 and she has to guide him out) and its obvious that his relationship with Tom (Jack too, but I really think Tom’s a big one here) is really special to him, not just because he’s able to think outside the box (like when Alex wanted to just wait all day for the journalist guy and Tom was all ‘i’ll just set off the alarm and evacuate the building) but also because he’s his best friend and makes him laugh/smile. Alex smiles so much at Tom’s antics and I really love the show for choosing to maintain that this is a teenage boy who needs his friends to keep him grounded.
And when he’s all convinced that Yassen is in the area he tells everyone!! Jack, Tom, even Sabina! (who really he should’ve at least tried to keep the whole spy thing a secret from i feel like come on, Alex, please) He jumps out in situations when he should stay hidden! He is not secretive when it comes to those he loves! And you can see that he wants and needs them to believe him. From what I remember, book Alex was more ‘ooh! Cool teenage spy, beating up all the bad guys and saving the world cuz Blunt won’t let him go!’ (Or maybe not, I’ll reread them someday) but this Alex cares!! This version of Alex cared so much about what happened to his uncle Ian, he cared so much that his evil clone was hurting Tom and ran as fast as he could to get to them, he cares so much about Kyra he went on a drugged up rant about how she’s special and he wouldn’t fall for fake Kyra’s tricks again. He cares so much about Sabina and her dad.
TV! Alex I will always love you.
This is a joke but it is so sick and twisted that for both academic and creative writing you should do your research. Why can’t I simply knowww.
