I am beginning to suspect that I'm going to make Softer World remixes for all my visual media fandoms. (Note to self: this is not a challenge.) In any case, today's remixes are for White Collar; unsurprisingly, a lot of them are FEELINGS ABOUT BURKES.
I have still never seen an episode of White Collar in my life, but some of these gave me CHILLS. Astronaut, give me liberty, and just walk it off in particular.
Hah. Um. Other things to do? Perhaps a lack of source caps? It is so tempting, though.
Oh man I spoiled you SO MUCH here, but luckily sans context you're probably safe. :D Of course now I want to tell you to go, watch White Collar forthwith! But I will only give you the Show Is Awesome pitch if you actually want to hear about it.
I figured the lack of context would mean that spoilers would fail to stick in my head. I'm a bit spoilered here and there anyways, so I'm resigned to the little things. :)
Your are VERY WELCOME to give me the Show Is Awesome pitch! I don't in any way guarantee that it'll make it watch it (open canons are my bane of my existence and I have TOO MANY) but I always love reading people being excited about their shows.
Right? I was actually surprised! But the great thing about Softer World is that it has supernatural creatures and aliens AND crime, so there's something for every fandom. :D
I think there are a delightful infinite variety of best fandoms ever for Softer World remixes, which is why I keep doing the damn things. And thank yoooou. (Also, d'you have a link to the bandom ones? I'm really curious now!)
Ohhh, too many open canons, I hear you. NEVERTHELESS, SHOW IS AWESOME PITCH.
The thing about White Collar is that I am actually not sure what show most people are watching! I imagine that a majority of people (outside the fandom, obviously, although from observation some inside the fandom as well) are not watching a show about kinky poly shenanigans, but what other show they could be watching, I'm not entirely sure! Because in my brain the only reading of this show is that it is about amazing kinky poly shenanigans.
Which is not to say that there aren't other great things about the show -- I love the entire supporting cast, including badass competent dry-witted textually queer with onscreen girlfriend Diana, and I frequently love the episode plots though not always the season arcs, and it's one of the most consistently entertaining procedurals I've ever watched. But.
The kink is goddamn amazing. Basically Neal is collared via his tracking anklet, an arrangement he and Peter worked out together, and Neal spends lots of his time pushing boundaries and testing limits but pretty much always doing what Peter tells him to, and it's so great. (And, this season, also kind of awful, because Neal keeps exploiting loopholes and bratting like crazy and I just want them to be okaaaay.) And -- I have no idea if it's actually intentionally in the show! But I can't quite see how it's not.
The poly is also amazing, because Peter and Neal have this intense thing going on and meanwhile Peter and Elizabeth have probably the loveliest, sweetest, healthiest TV marriage I have ever seen, and El helps Peter process about Neal, and Peter sometimes asks for romantic advice from Neal re: things to do with El, and whenever El or Neal are worried about Peter they go to each other, and there is COMMUNICATION and lots of BURKE FAMILY DINNERS, and I can't even. The show does keep trying to throw love interests at Neal, like his plot-device ex-girlfriend, or this season Sara Ellis, whom a lot of people dislike (some on grounds of personality, and I suspect lots because Sara is A Threat to Neal/Peter in a way Elizabeth isn't). But I really love Sara, and I also love that, when Neal and Sara were having some relationship troubles, the tense season finale plot screeched to a halt for five minutes so that Peter and Elizabeth could have them over for dinner and teach them about better communication. Basically I ship EVERYTHING and the show LETS me.
What I am trying to say here is that it is Relevant To All Of My Interests and I love it so muuuuuch.
