This has nothing to do with Ass Creed or Homestuck, but I keep seeing [personal profile] sholio post things on this ridiculous TV show she's watching, and I keep thinking of you for some reason. Here is a list of the things she's tagged.

I can't really in good conscience recommend this to anybody unless you have an extremely high tolerance for violent, depressing subtitled television in which the characters have literally no life coping skills and also there is wall-to-wall police violence, a whole lot of various *isms, and authority figures generally acting badly in ways that are frequently condoned by the narrative. This show is pretty much the Hawaii 5-0 of Reasons Not To Get Arrested In France. (ALL THE PEOPLE ON THIS SHOW ARE TERRIBLE. EVEN THE NICE ONES.) Also, there are at least two fake-rape-accusation storylines, and the one in season four is part of the season arc and started annoying me so badly that I got the point where I was just skipping those scenes to get back to the storyline(s) I was actually interested in.

AND YET. I am wallowing around in OT3-ish feelings (Laure-Gilou-Tintin 4EVAH) and keep getting my h/c and friendshippy buttons pushed hard every few episodes. I am so easy for that kind of thing. I feel like I shouldn't love this show as much as I do, but then it'll veer out of the doldrums of utter miseryville to dump a truckload of feelings on me, and I'm pretty much there for it.
