favorite character memeseven scenes - Season 1, Episode 7: I am every bit the S.H.I.E.L.D. agent you are. [3/7]

Can I just tell you how much I love this scene?

It’s so quintessential Fitz, with the whole, “I’m not going anywhere. You understand?”

Of course back here, this wasn’t layered yet with his abandonment issues, but this simple truth that he would not leave anyone behind, and would die for any of his teammates. And I love that while Ward is trying to make this about Jemma, Fitz makes it about Ward. 

This scene makes Ward’s betrayal hit so hard.

Oh, my precious Fitz. This is what I love about him. He’s loyal and brave, and uses all the tools he has (even if they aren’t the ones that people are expecting). And this is where we get to see this with someone other than Jemma (which makes their relationship harder to pin down, but at the same time maybe easier to understand - because that is just who he is).

This is one of my favorite episodes (which I guess really isn’t surprising since it’s my favorite character in my favorite season).

Not strictly about ao3 but more about fandom in general. Sometimes idk what my place is. I don't really have anything to offer. I'm no writer, I have no talent for drawing, and I'm often too shy to interact on tumblr (even on anon). I'm just a reader. I try to comment, but most of the time, my brain just freeze in front of the comment box, and I end up writing the most basic things or nothing at all. Idk,I feel like the uninvited guest at a birthday party, like I have no right to eat the cake :(

*hugs* You’re completely welcome at any party I throw, anon!

Fandom is a community made of a lot of different kinds of people. Some people write. Others make art. Still others run events or organize fans during social media campaigns. But all of those people you see doing all kinds of stuff? They’re the visible minority. There are many, many more fans who read or watch or vote or kudos or like or scroll without actually reaching out and talking to anyone else. Those people are just as important.

If everyone wrote fic, who would be left to read it? If everyone made art, we’d never have time to see it all. If everyone made gifs or vids of playlists, there’d be so many people making things that only a few people would actually enjoy them. 

I love to bake, but I don’t make cakes just for me. I make them to share. And I don’t expect someone to pay me for it or make me one in return or write up a Yelp review of my party. I just want you to come over and have fun and leave with a smile on your face. Even if you just wave on your way out the door, I’ll know I did a good job. 

You’re offering your time, anon. And you’re offering your attention. In a busy world with a lot going on, those are two very valuable things. There’s room for you in fandom, too, and I’m not the only one who’s glad you’re here ❤

I’d like to take a moment in praise of “basic” comments, personally.  Because I’m not sure there is any such thing.  Any comment makes my day.  “Loved it!”  Yay, someone loved it!  Heart emoji?  Brings a warm glow to my heart.  I never, ever sit at my computer thinking, “Why didn’t this person at least pull out their five favorite lines and write me up a short analysis of the theme they found most compelling?”  That would be ridiculous.  A comment is a gift.  I treasure them no matter the size.

(Disclaimer: obviously I would not treasure a comment that says, “You suck.”  But so far, I fortunately haven’t encountered any fans that are that rude.)

@lyricwritesprose I completely agree. While I certainly would not mind thoughtful analysis or comments on my writing technique, every “Loved it!” and “This is amazing!” makes my day 😊😊 The nicest comment I received recently was “Well, this has made me perfectly happy.” Don’t worry that your comment is too short…anything positive is always welcome!

I have just recently entered the realm of  AO3. Eventually, I want to write but in the meantime, I have been enjoying some fantastic fanfics.  Sometimes finding the right word to express my feelings in the comment section is difficult. that is when I give a kudo to let the author know their hard work is appreciated. I can always go back and leave a comment when I find the right words.

AOS Rewatch: S1E7 “The Hub”

  • Love that extraction.
  • “Where are the dogs?” *adjusts tie* “Don’t be ridiculous”
  • “Whatever you do, don’t breath.” Agent Shaw holds his breath. “That was a joke.” She’s so precious.
  • Jemma getting so excited about the Hub. Have I mentioned she’s precious?
  • Sitwell. Hydra Scum!
  • Victoria Hand. **swoon** She’s scary, but also so—just like—I have respect for her. (Maybe not in this episode but definitely later on.)
  • “Do you mean?” — “I think she does.” — **pan to Fitz and the sliding door**
  • Can we just appreciate the piece of art that is that sliding door scene?
  • Jemma being nervous and Fitz trying to play it cool (yet not refusing the antivenin pack). Those two are just—
  • **touches his hand** “You’ll be careful?” **UGLY CRYING**
  • “Oh, I almost forgot. I made you this.” **EXCITED SCREAMING. THE SANDWICH!!!!!!!!**
  • That little Jemma Simmons nose crunch. **patent pending**
  • Jemma being nervous. No one touch the night-night gun.
  • “Which non-expression is this?” Hehehe.
  • Coulson stumbling over “It’s a magical place.” EEEK!
  • “How long can you hold your breath under water?” — “I don’t know.” — “Are you familiar with the term ‘slam and cram’”? — “No. And I don’t think I want to be.” — “How attached are you to your pinky?” — “Very, very attached. And before you ask another terrifyingly vague question let me be clear: any plan that involves even one of those scenarios isn’t going to work for me.” MUHAHAHA. I love their interactions.
  • “I can’t be a part of your bad girl shenanigans. I like following the rules, and doing what’s expected of me. It makes me feel nice.” Season1!Jemma is so relatable to me it hurts. Also, I’m still hoping to level up to later badass!Jemma’s
  • “Fitz? Tortured?” And that’s all it takes to make Jemma Anne Simmons jump into action.
  • “Of course, mishka.” Everyone falls in love with little bear—I mean Fitz.
  • “It’s nothing. Really. I’m just a man.” non-humble Fitz at his best.
  • Underappreciated genius totally saved the day.
  • “Already moving. Hurry up.” **LOL**
  • One does not simply interrupt Melinda May when she does her tai-chi. 
  • That entire scene between Jemma and Sitwell is so painful yet so brilliant and hilarious. “You certainly have a gorgeous head.”
  • One does not simply throw away the special sandwich!
  • Anyone else relieved that that truck drove precisely over that mag pouch and not a hint to the left or right? I’ll just ignore realism here :D
  • Ward realizing there’s no extraction team.
  • “This will take awhile.” — “You have 10 minutes.” — “I thought you’d say 5.”
  • “I am every bit the S.H.I.E.L.D. agent you are.” Oh, Fitz, you’re so much better than him.
  • “And I’m bloody starving.” That’s my Fitz. #relatable
  • “I just did that?… Okay. Let’s go.” Precious lion getting more confident.
  • Hand’s little smile at the end. See, she’s nice. She just doesn’t like people to see it.
  • “Well done, Fitz.” Jemma being so proper when really she was so worried and probably just wants to hug him and ensure herself he’s really okay. They’re so precious.
  • Fitz lying about the sandwich. **ugly crying**
  • The face you make when Jemma Anne Simmons tells you that she shot a superior officer in the chest.
  • Skye learning more about her past. **ugly crying**
  • Coulson trying to get access to his own file and being denied. EEEEEK!

Bonus: I wrote an alternate universe fic that features the final Fitzsimmons scene of this episode in Chapter 2 (and Fitzsimmons realizing their feelings for each other a lot sooner than in canon ;) ): Agree to Disagree

Hello, here’s my favourite episode. Ever? Just in season 1? I don’t know. I only know it makes me happy because there are many fun scenes that I enjoy. Do you have a favourite episode?

Agents of SHIELD 1x07 - The Hub

  • Coulson’s priority after escaping an enemy base is adjusting his tie and I love it.
  • Ah, the nose thing. On Christmas 2016 I had INTENSE nosebleed and at the hospital they put some cilindric absorbent tissue inside my nose to stop it and two days later, when they got it out, I could only think of that scene with Simmons saying: “Don’t breathe. I’m just kidding, you can breath however you want. Only not through your nose. And barely through your mouth.” It also hurt.
  • Jemma is so excited about the Hub!
  • The sandwich! The looks!
  • Fun fact about the sandwich, one year later we would have fangirled a lot about that One Thing, because we were literally starved of FitzSimmons content and the Freaking Sandwich resurfaced with its “Love, Jemma” on. Priceless.
  • “Skye and Jemma’s Bad Girl Shenanigans” should have been a spin-off.
  • Fitz being scared of Ward’s terrifyingly vague questions more than the mission itself. Honestly, I would be scared of Ward’s vague questions too.
  • I love that even the people they’ve been sent to negotiate intel with, eventually, start liking Fitz. They call him Little Bear and they told him their first names! I love this.
  • “Fitz Making Friends And Eating Sandwiches” should also have been a spin-off.
  • Oh, here we go, people disturbing Melinda May while she does tai chi. Her looks that say everything to Coulson are amazing.
  • The deleted scene where Jemma comes to tell her she shot someone and she stops, sighs, and asks “Where’s the body?” is also priceless.
  • Sitwell! The Hydra guy! What have this scene and the elevator scene in Captain America: The WInter Soldier in common you ask? ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING. #JemmaSimmonsAsCaptainEngland2k20
  • “You certainly have a Gorgeous… HEAD” while touching her hair, may I say ICONIC?
  • Fitz will never forgive Ward for throwing away his sandwich. Honestly we should have deduced Ward was evil by this episode alone.
  • YES, COULSON PROTECTING HIS TEAM AND STICKING IT TO THE MAN AT THE SAME TIME
  • YOU GO, COULSON! FOUR FOR YOU, COULSON!
  • “I shot a superior officer in the chest” FITZ’S FACE I’M CRYING
  • We start to know more about Skye’s past AND TAHITI and I couldn’t be more excited!
  • Did I mention I love this episode?

Thanks for reading! What did you think?

Written for @aosficnet2 Promptober day 4 - haunted house.

This is for @blancasplayground based on a conversation we had about a certain castle.

Fitz has some doubts when Jemma drags him into what is clearly a haunted house.

Clouds filled the sky and made the night sky appear almost an inky black. The moonlight occasionally breaking through the clouds did little to lighten the mood. Fitz gripped Jemma’s hand tightly in his and tried to keep the goosebumps breaking out across his skin in perspective. It was just the damp air...or the fog. It wasn’t that he was scared...

Happy Birthday Agents of Shield!

Ahh I can’t believe it’s been six years since the show premiered! Feels like just yesterday eleven year old me was sitting on the couch watching the first episode and immediately falling in love with it. This has been the most incredible six years thanks to you! So excited (and sad), for your final season next summer! Happy Birthday! 🎊🎂🎉

(Looking at these posters reminds me once again how insanely good this show became! ❤️)
