10 Reasons why Beth belongs to Mick and 15 reasons why Mick belongs to Beth, in pictures

I really liked the last episode. There was no Josef and no Coraline but the last scene between Beth and Mick with TEARS in their eyes and much angst and Mick saying "you know why this can't work out" and meaning – "because I am a monster and because I'll only hurt you so you must stay away as everyone I care about gets hurt" made me cry. The scene was beautiful and symbolic as the sun was rising at the same time as Beth was kissing Mick and they both were trying to keep their tears away.. AWWWWWWW!

I was temped into Mick and Coraline in the previous episode but NO!! Beth belongs to Mick and Mick belongs to Beth!!!

And if this is not a proof than what is - they are completely mirroring each other:




Gravitation is not responsible for people falling in love. Albert Einstein
There is only one happiness in life, to love and be loved. George Sand
If I know what love is, it is because of you. Herman Hesse

Mick belongs to Beth , because:

1. He was so afraid she will see him as a monster! He was so vulnerable and full of angst when she found out his blood-drinking habits!



2. Photographic evidence: There was a super-nova born at exact time when Beth gave her blood to Mick in the wilderness (please notice the bright spot in the middle of the screencap below). This huge surge of energy can not be ignored!



3. Mick tries to avoid talking about this but they have some kind of supernatural connection that goes beyond pure attraction after Beth's blood donation. He said so himself in his voiceover! He feels her beating heart!



4. She even drives him dorky!



5. He avoids Beth's attempts at sex conversations. My limited experience with men tells me that the only thing they are always ready to talk about is sex. So – strange?? More than strange!




6. He had the cutest of smiles known to a woman when she kissed him – as [livejournal.com profile] ladytiramisu said, I wish a guy would make that expression for me!



7. And he wanted to have drug-filled sex with her, he really did. Beth was SO silly to break the spell between them and run upstairs.



8. He watches her stealthily, and often. With a silly lovelorn grin on his face.



9. He tells her how awesome she is. All the time. "You are a survivor" – isn't this a confession?



10. He tells her "my casa your casa". Why would a man talk Spanish to a girl he doesn't love obsessively?



11. She makes him smile, even when he is feeling uneasy about leaving his house in her snooping hands and going to war with a crazy vampire revolutionary. He just can't help himself around her.



12. By [livejournal.com profile] neuriel : He knew as soon as he heard her voice that she was freaked out about something (when he calls after she finds photos of herself in Mick's office). Aw, he knows her so well.



13. His first thought after falling off a cliff, losing his fancy electronic device and being badly damaged is "Beth!"



14. She makes him cry. He is a 85-year old vampire and she makes him cry like a baby (and me too!!!) with her "You are my guardian angel" talk.



15. When he tries to warn her off, just in a vain 100-something attempt again, he does it very unconvincingly. VERY!!



Beth belongs to Mick , because:

1. Beth talks about Mick in her sleep, when she is in bed with attractive-looking vest-wearer Josh.



2. She pulled a stake out of him. Imagine what could have happened if she didn't?



3. She gave him her blood!! Her Blood! I totally would have thought twice about doing any such things! This looks like it hurts!



4. And she didn't pretend to forget it, saying "Oh, I give blood all the time. I am a blood donor" or something like this.



5. She gives him steamy "As you wish" line whilst locking her eyes with his.



6. She wants to talk about sex with him. A perfectly legitimate idea, Beth, we need to know if there are any unexpected differences in vampire anatomy.



5. She kissed him. FIRST!! Squeeeeeeeee!



6. Their conversation seems to be filled with innuendoes. "I was more worried about the size". Heeeee! I have a dirty mind sometimes, I apologise.



7. Beth mirrors Mick and Mick mirrors Beth. He makes me laugh here – he stares at Beth's hand as if he wants to say "What is THIS?".



8. When Mick's wife is back Beth is heart-broken. I can't find a joke here – she is so sad and lonely because she has to listen to his talk about Coraline, always Coraline.



9. This is a kind of smile she gives to Mick's ex-wife: "I am going to smile to you because there are many people around us but when we are alone I am going to do STAB! And some more stab!



10. She smells his clothes!!



PS: Feel free to add any more reasons. Reasons for why Mick belongs to Coraline are not accepted in this post. :D

I think "Moonlight" is catering for "adult" demographic so well.. It is such a pity my mother and sister are long way away in Moscow - I imgine my mother would have liked "Moonlight" to bits..

So you're telling me I should give "The Wire" a try?

"The Wire" is excellent but it depends if you like this type of stories. It is about drug scene and various other things (like politics) in Baltimore and it is very unusual for a TV show - long archs. Some very serious questions are considered and without pulling any punches, for example, the fall of some of the industries (and impoverishing of the working class with them) on example of Baltimore docks. Plus Lots of swearing.

Well if they speak/understand English ... there's always BT airlines ;)

"The Wire" sounds interesting but it might not be my cup of tea ... I don't go so much for gritty reality type of shows ... I'm more about Urban Myths (ML, Buffy) or Fairy Tales (Pushing Daisies) LOL

Oh, no - they don't understand English and they don't understand Internet. :D I am sure "Moonlight" will get to Russia eventually, I even saw "Rome" on NTV this summer.

I watch many different things, their appeal is different. I meant to try "Pushing Daisies" (I didn't get any further than the pilot)

I'm sure you're right. BTW, what do they and you think of "Nightwatch" and "Daywatch" ? I've not seen the second one yet :pout:

And if I may ask, don't feel obligated to answer, but where are you (generally : States, Europe, Canada)?

[identity profile] alexandral.livejournal.com 2007-11-20 07:27 pm (UTC)(link)
I have seen "Daywatch" - it was much better than the first film for me as it concentrated more on the story and characters and less on the special effects. And the special effects were much better too. I loved "Daywatch".

On, no secret - I live in the UK, in Yorkshire..

[identity profile] earlgrayhot.livejournal.com 2007-11-20 07:34 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm glad to hear about Daywatch, although I liked Nightwatch a bit, it was definitely strange ... I'll be netflixing Daywatch then :)

UK ... cool, I'm as you can probably guess in the States, Ohio specifically :)

Because my eyes are getting a bit "tired" I can't stand much blinking, really. "Nightwatch" had too much blinking.

** Waves ** YAY!

I guess the way Nightwatch was filmed it was definitely jarring to the eyes!

*waves back* Hope you're staying warm ... we've got snow on the northern side of the pond!

It is freezing cold here but we rarely get snow and only in January usually (for few hours :D). I am jealous. I miss snow. :D

[identity profile] earlgrayhot.livejournal.com 2007-11-23 05:40 pm (UTC)(link)
That's what I've heard about that part of the UK ... do you ever get to go back to Russia during the winter-time to get some snow time?

[identity profile] alexandral.livejournal.com 2007-11-26 02:53 am (UTC)(link)
We have been in Russian this summer, so I guess we are not going this winter. :D We went to Russia in summer once, long time ago. Sasha (my little girl) loved snow!

[identity profile] earlgrayhot.livejournal.com 2007-11-26 11:45 am (UTC)(link)
The young ones definitely have a good time with the cold stuff! Mine love playing in the snow - making snow men, having snow-ball fights ... I just wish they'd like to shovel our drive-way as much ;)

I've never been back :( One of these days I will but I'm so Americanized now that I speak both English and Russian with accents - I'd feel so weird going back "home" and not be able to communicate well LOL

[identity profile] alexandral.livejournal.com 2007-11-30 02:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Everyone in Russia says I have an accent too.. ;D I used to speak one language well and now I peak two and both with accents.. ;D
