The Hour (Bonus question: cast yourself, me, Harri, and whomever else as the characters)

  • Favourite female character: Lix. No question.
  • Favourite male character: Freddie. Again, so easy to pick (although Randall comes a close second)
  • OT3: Hahahahahaha like it would ever be anything other than Hector/Bel/Freddie
  • Favourite friendship: Lix and Bel. Always.
  • Favourite familial relationship: I… if I say Randall and Lix, will anyone shriek? (Dean, I am looking at you)
  • OTP: Quite honestly if you ship anyone other than Hector/Bel/Freddie you’re doing it wrong. However, there’s a special kind of heartbreak involved in Lix/Randall, and all of their scenes break my heart into little tiny pieces.
  • Storyline I wish we’d seen: I wanted to see how the Lix/Randall finding out about their daughter was resolved. I wanted Freddie and Bel to explore how their relationship will have changed. I want Marnie to realise what a terrible husband Hector is and divorce him and never look back. I was more Isaac, always more Isaac
  • Favourite quote/scene/arc: If I haven’t shrieked about it enough, there’s Freddie’s season one arc of WEARING A DEAD MAN’S COAT FOR AN ENTIRE SEASON.

As for casting purposes, you are of course the amazingly competant and totally in love and always possible Bel to my performative and self destructive stubborn to a fault Freddie. We really do need to find a Hector to complete our triad, dear. Harri is Isaac. She doesn’t watch the show, she can’t complain about that. Rachel and Sarah can be Lix and Randall because they need an epic cross continental repressed love story of their very own. So yes, we really do just need a Hector. And a Marnie, I suppose.

Success is the best revenge.

Bel Rowley (like I'd let you off with just one)

why i like them: because she looks at the 1950’s with it’s gender roles and unashamed patriarchy and she says NO THANK YOU and takes what she deserves and what she wants anyway

why i don’t like them: sweetie, freddie loves you, stop being dense. YOU ARE POSSIBLE.

favourite episode/scene: the look on her face when freddie quotes e.e. cummings at her. !!!

favourite season/movie/arc: well the first one is excellent for hector/bel and the second one is excellent for freddie/bel SO I DOn’T KNOW

favourite line: ‘if i was scared for my life, i would run to you. and trust that you know the answer. because there’s no one else like you, freddie’ I JUST SHIP THEM SO MUCH THIS GODDAMN SHOW RUINED MY LIFE.

otp: FREDDIE/HECTOR/BEL IF YOU SHIP ANYTHING ELSE YOU’RE DOING THE SHOW WRONG.

favourite platonic relationships: lix. always lix.

headcanon: once again, i suck. i am pretty sure she was in love with freddie for the longest time though, and she convinced herself he could never love her, and she’s still not sure sometimes, but then she catches him watching her and it makes her feel like everything else in the world is greyscale.

unpopular opinion: she’s in love with freddie AND in love with hector? idk man, i don’t know what’s unpopular and what’s not. fringe fandom, remember.
