LOL! Oh I Love This. Poor Stephen. Just Because Im Short Doesnt Make Me A Magical Girl! Crane Would Take

LOL!  Oh I love this.  Poor Stephen. ‘Just because I’m short doesn’t make me a magical girl!”  Crane would take far too much enjoyment of Stephen dressed as a magical girl. 

Now I’m imagining a Magpie Lord/Card Captor Sakura crossover.  Crane and Tomoyo would bond over a shared love of clothes and forcibly dressing people up ... the more I think on this the more I’m convinced that Lord Crane and Tomoyo meeting would be fantastic (for the readers) and terrifying for everyone else. 

Sometimes, these absurd ideas just pop into my head. I’m sorry. Only not really.

Saw this posted on Facebook.  It is always good to try a new hobby.  :)

As an American around the same age, I had not heard of the case until Leverage.  I have not watched Loki and agree the writers should have given the audience more background.  However, I would like to pose an alternate possibility:  The writers of Loki expect a large portion of their viewers to have watched Leverage and gotten the explanation there. :)

I first heard of D B Cooper because of that Leverage episode, where this was the case from an FBI agent’s past that he couldn’t solve. I thought it was just a story for that TV show.

But it gets referenced in a bunch of other places. There’s even an episode of We Bare Bears that has a nod to it.

In the first episode of Loki, it’s revealed that Loki was D B Cooper - but with basically no explanation as to what the hell was going on or what they were talking about. It was just assumed that the audience would know what was being referenced. At least in Leverage, they spelled out what happened during the incident.

Is this just an incident that all Americans know about somehow? TV show writers can assume it’s just common knowledge with such confidence that they can reference a crime from the seventies and expect everyone in the audience to know what it’s about without needing to include an explanation.

“Serena?” Elliot asked.

“Serene,” said Serene. “My full name is Serene-Heart-in-the-Chaos-of-Battle.”

Elliot’s mouth fell open. “That is *badass.*”

Hardison is everyone’s big brother and occasional grandmother, I love that description.

I feel like it’s really easy to lean towards categorising Sophie as the mom friend but like, no. no Sophie is the Cool aunt who’s always slightly tipsy and whisks you away for impromptu shopping trips and lets you drink but Eliot, Eliot is the mom friend.
