House of Anubis came back, omg. I feel this little clamp around my chest loosening. And I wish I were kidding about that.
So here we go, "House of Tombs." Which people with On Demand already saw, but that's fine.
Whee.
When last we left our heroes, an unbearable three weeks ago, they were hiding from evil Caroline Denby who was coming to visit crazy Harriet Denby at the sad mental hospital where Alfie's probably going to spend his adult years.
Caroline is way too good at this being-evil stuff. The kids have never had an adversary like this. Even Rufus made more dumb mistakes than she does.
Haha, Eddie thought he could sneak past Victor. Bitch, please.
Victor: "They are to be given basic rations only. Which means no cakes, no treats."
Alfie: "Wait!"
Victor: "BE QUIET, LEWIS!"
LOL, omg, I love my show.
KT: "I understand if you want me out of Sibuna."
Eddie: "No way, we've got the descendent on our team."
Alfie: "Yeah, take that, Team Evil."
:')
And evil Denby is all like, What are these kids doing and what does this dumb hand gesture mean? Because if Sibuna is anything, it's discreet. Haha, and then they all pretend to be fixing their hair.
LOL OMG MY NEW FAVORITE MOMENT.
Jerome has a headache and is whining about dinner, and Mara says, "Poor Jerome, would you like a Mara kiss?" And in the background Alfie blows up his cheeks like he needs to puke, and Joy opens her purse up and puts it in front of him. Shit, I need to search tumblr for a gif of that later. Brilliant.
Trudy has a secret cookie stash! <3
Willow, hi! She cleaned Joy's room to cheer her up. I'd take a Willow. And then Joy was unnecessarily harsh to her. I feel like no one appreciates Willow. Except maybe Jerome, but he seems happily under Mara's thumb again.
Haha, Sweets dancing to the Egyptian chant, and the looks from Victor and Denby.
"Yep, I recognize this place from every nightmare I've ever had." KT, I heart you. And then Eddie says that he's actually had a daymare about that room. Not just a figure of speech for him. And now the kids are trapped in a tomb. Way to go.
"At least if I'm buried alive, I'm in the family tomb, right?" I kind of barely miss Nina because KT's so great.
Fabian: "They're just bats."
KT: "They're 'just bats' in this 'just crypt'?!"
Seriously, Fabian keeps his cool a little too much sometimes.
Alfie: "Must not choose food over friends."
Says you, Alfie. I'd do just about anything for a cookie right now. And I don't even have claustrophobia like poor Alfie.
Alfie: "Are you guys alive, dead, or undead?"
Fabian laughs, but it's not funny. Alfie's had a break with reality in the last, like, two days, and it's not funny.
Fortunately, Denby distracted Victor from catching the kiddos.
Victor hugging his taxidermy bird, hahahaha. He doesn't want you to try to resurrect Corbiere!
Eddie: "Back to Plan A. Get Harriet, stop evil, save the world, and... never have porridge for breakfast again."
Alfie: "Yes! No porridge."
Jerome, I am reminded of a quote here from the wise old sage Johnny Depp. If you love two people at the same time, choose the second one, because if you really loved the first one you wouldn't have fallen for the second. Now, I may only agree with Mr. Depp because Mara was the first and Willow the second, but seriously, maybe think on the wisdom of these words. Would you be feeling anything at all for Willow if Mara weren't such a life-draining ball-buster?
Eddie, Fabian, and KT: "[I've/We've] got news!"
Alfie: "Okay, I have no news. I didn't know we had to bring news."
Haha, Jerome mutters to himself that with the soft lighting, they just need romantic music to make it a date. Then Willow finds a radio. "There we go," Jerome says.
Oh, my heart.
Willow: "So it's definitely over between you and Mara then?"
No no no.
Jerome: "Actually, I wanted to talk to you about that."
See, it turns out that in addition to being the puppy who won't stop shitting on the carpet, Jerome's also the puppy who loves the foot that kicks him.
She waits expectantly, and then
Jerome: "Yeah. Totally and completely over."
YOU COLOSSAL DICKWAD. JEROME, I HATE YOU.
Willow: "That's good! Not for Mara, but for me."
And then they kiss, and he has one hand in his pocket but the other reaches out to steady her elbow, and I would be so fucking happy about this if he weren't a lying, cheating piece of shit. Fuck.
Jerome: "Work with me. I'm trying to give you some news here."
Alfie: "Actually, I've had quite a lot of that this evening."
I want to fucking punch Jerome right now. I can't believe he thinks that this is acceptable in any way. The phrase girlfriend-and-boyfriend implies a certain exclusivity, and you're a horrible person. Sure, I don't care that much that you're cheating on Mara, but what you're doing to Willow is terrible.
Two-hundred-twenty degrees? Better get a protractor out.
Denby realized the bracelet is made in China, hahahaha. Sibunaed, bitches!
Seriously, though, I can't deal with how much I hate Jerome in this moment. :(

And then I realized you'd corrupted me. =P

And the "MADE IN CHINA?!??!?!" delivery from Caroline KILLED. ME.
And whatever that line about "Yay Alfie! You were able to resist cookies, and saved us!"
Seriously, Alfie+that asylum... almost certain future otp. But actually, now I kind of want future!fic where powerful businessman/mob boss Jerome comes to visit Alfie at the hospital every day, just as a matter of course. Highlight of his day, etc.
I think the Teenick (sp) people just figured out how ~dreamy~ Jerome is. On all the commercials, the excited female announcer starts the promo by referring to JEROME dating TWO girls OMG! Like that's the plot of the show, and not this whole resurrecting evil and saving the world thing.
And I don't know how to feel about that. :<
no subject
Date: 2013-02-28 12:45 am (UTC)Your future!fic idea breaks my soul a little bit. But you know he totally would visit hims Alfie.
haha. I saw one of those ads today. It was like, "JEROME'S GIRLFRIENDS and something about Egypt." I guess they're trying to appeal to the general drama demographic most of their shows are geared toward? I guess that may draw in more new viewers than the conspiracy, though I did like that the same ad refers to Team Evil very clearly as "the adults." It's rarely said quite so explicitly, though that is what it is. Again, I'm fascinated by the way that horror reflects its audience's fears, and in a show made for tweens, of course the adults are all shadowy and evil.
