JSA Week Day 3 (yeah Yeah I'm A Day Behind)

Yeah that's going to be Sherlock Holmes related for sure. Poor Watson.

This links to a wheel with nearly a hundred fic tropes for plots, settings, and more. Spin it twice.

This could also work with art inspiration, but the buttons only allow for so many characters on them. And please do ramble in the tags! I'm going to have no idea what most of you are talking about, and it's going to be great.

So yeah, I thought it would be a good idea to start Succession after it had ended and I just got through season 1. I have a few questions and a few observations.

Questions:

How much did that brain hemorrhage really affect Logan's personality? At the beginning of episode one we get to see how he interacts with people, but it wasn't enough time for me to get a good enough read on his personality before the brain bleed. I get that he's always been ruthless, but how much of that was turned up to 11? Through snippets of shared childhood memories, it seems that he's always kinda been this way. But has he?

What is up with Tom? He seems to really love Shiv, but when he's interacting with any other member of the family it seems like more than him just wanting to be accepted. It seems like he's trying to worm his way into the family and, by extention, the company. I get the aggression/relationship with Greg. He found someone in the family lower on the pecking order than he is. But is he a good guy? He wanted to release those documents to the public, but was that his good person conscious or was it just him thinking about what would be good for the company?

Lastly, what's going on with Roman's character? For the most part he's a very weasely person, going with the flow to see what can benefit him at any given time. But what's that about him being sent to military school as a child because he was the weakest of the siblings? Him asking that girl to marry him and her calling him out asking if he thinks that's how he can get people to stay? Him cowering behind stuff when his fathers mad, resulting in him backing out on Kendall? I don't know if I particularly like him, but he's definitely intriguing.

Maybe I'm just not very media literate, but I know complex characters when I see one and omg. I guess give me a Preschool show because my emotions can't handle it.

And as for observations, the only thing I have to say is that the acting is amazing, especially with Jeremy Strong and Kieran Culkin. Like I said, the way they sometimes cower when Logan's being extra dominant is soooo good.

Wish me luck going in to season 2!

fun fact this episode takes place in 2018

No JSA thing today because I was cuddling with my poor old dog to fend off the cold. Thank you for your understanding and I'll see you this time tomorrow.

I know it's super late but when I was in my horror genre class this evening we were talking about subgenres and about actors that appear in certain types of horror movies as certain types of characters. My group got to Justin Long and his many deaths/misadventures. This was all I could think of and I needed to make it.

K goodnight.

I really like Cosmo Lavish as a character and I'm glad he got a somewhat happy ending.

I doubt anyone will actually care about my reasoning for this opinion, but I thought that now would be a good time to say it since I've got nothing better to do as I wait for my class to start.

This is how we cope if it really happens.

Hey guys? You know that image of Rama and Larry holding each other in a bright area? You know, the one we haven't seen yet in the show? You know how Negative Spirit 1 just told Larry he was going to be a sun? Do you remember that both Larry and Rama are destabilizing and are going to blow up? Do you guys know how sun's are made? You don't think for the series finally they would... do you?

the worst part about father mulcahy is that he'll never know how much i love him
