Long Before I Was Active On Tumblr I Used To Draw My Favorite Screencaps

I need you all to know that Bones is my mother's comfort show. Whenever she's having a bad day my dad will put on a random episode of Bones for her. She doesn't even pay attention to the Murder of the Week she's just here for the characters. She's 60 years old.

Bones Advent Calendar | Day 7 ✨

I just think Seeley Booth would do literally anything to get Temperance Brennan to call him a good boy

i have not been able to get him off my fucking mind

i love him so much it’s making me crazy

Okay literally just reblogged this but I decided I don’t want to hide this in the tags

I keep thinking abt tipsy Angela in 1x09 saying she might kiss Brennan at the Christmas party and then immediately bi-panicking and covering it up saying “in a festive non-lesbian manner” girl could you be any more obvious…..

thinking about how people only call temperance brennan “temperance” or “tempie” when they’re trying to manipulate her.

like angela, her best friend and emotional confidant never calls her temperance, no matter how personal things get. and she’s always “bones” to booth, even when he’s terrified for her safety. and when hodgins, one of her oldest friends, is desperate for empathy and appealing to her humanity during the grave digger arc, he never stops calling her “brennan”.

and it’s only ever the men who try to manipulate her—her father, jared booth, or dr. stires, the old professor who tried to publicly humiliate her—that try to appeal to the an intimacy that her given name doesn’t hold

he's so hard to draw I wanna cry

Zack avoids eye contact at all cost and will never look anyone in the eye if he can avoid it. It makes him nervous and overstimulated.

Brennan doesn’t know what the correct amount of eye contact is and overcompensates by staring directly into peoples eyes at all times. Except for Zack.

Nice penis, but I really don’t care. I need to get back to the lab.

Notice how Brennan is saying something personal and Sweets is offering a generalised observation that is logically derived from Brennan's example. Just like emotion and logic fail us when they are exclusively used as defences meant to protect us from the world, they are also equally effective and vivid in the consequences they bring once they are applied to everyday situations and we use them to help someone else. :") You might even end up helping yourself in the process. <3

Episode of all time.
