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

Mick could never belong to Coraline because she is evol! That's all anyone needs to know. Well, that and she doesn't make him make dorky faces and give brilliant and adorable smiles.

Exactly!!! And Caroline should show her evil side soon!! Mick should see her for what she is! Because I can't stand him getting wind up about Caroline after having this fabulous sun-rise scene with Beth. And Beth is so great and totally doesn't deserve it! (as you can tell, may be - I am getting really quite worried here! :D)

I think you've summed it up quite nicely why they belong together! That scene of them with mirroring images jumped out at me when it was on screen. LOL at the looks like it hurts line! I bet!

OMB ... Beth's #6 ... I'm so glad I'm not the only one whose brain resides in the gutter where these two are concerned LOL

Excellent post *thumbsup* and so true! She sniffs his clothes, they mirror each others positions, they stealthily give each other love-lorn looks ... they're just meant for each other *sigh*.

BRAVO!!!!!!

Love the joke about the "size." *giggles like a mad thing*


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

AHA HOW TRUE HE LOOOOOVES HER!!!!!!!

[identity profile] alexandral.livejournal.com 2007-11-19 12:28 am (UTC)(link)
I love the way their relationship is developing - this is so wonderful! No long episodes of UST! No dragging! But I am so afraid of the next few episodes. I think there will be something with Caroline.. I am even afraid to watch next episode's preview..

OMB ... Beth's #6 ... I'm so glad I'm not the only one whose brain resides in the gutter where these two are concerned LOL

Hee! I am glad!! It is not our fault - these two are just so hit together!

She sniffs his clothes, they mirror each others positions, they stealthily give each other love-lorn looks ... they're just meant for each other *sigh*.

The sniffing of his clothes is so my thing, one of the things that always "get" me. I remember Scully doing it when Mulder disappeared.. ** sigh **

And thank you!!!!!!!!

Thank you so much!!!!!!!!!

AHA HOW TRUE HE LOOOOOVES HER!!!!!!!

He seems to be so in denial, though. Wake up, Mick! Stop thinking you are a monster!!! It is like his monster side is drawn to Caroline and his "Mick" side is drawn to Beth. I am so afraid of the upcoming episodes...

[identity profile] roni2727.livejournal.com 2007-11-19 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
Ever since I saw that preview, I've been happily living in denialville. It's quite comfy here. Your more than welcome to visit or even move here. :p

*runs away repeating the denialville motto: Mick belongs with Beth, Mick belongs with Beth*

[identity profile] earlgrayhot.livejournal.com 2007-11-19 12:49 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah ... the sniffing thing ... I'm the same way too. You know they say that scent is one of the best way to access memories :) Awwww ... she's trying to remember every moment with him!

[identity profile] alexandral.livejournal.com 2007-11-19 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
Oh NO!!! NOOOOOOOOO! I just seen the preview. Ok, there must be a reason! She poisoned him or gave him drugs or something else. And then Josef will come and bite her head off. I need all my strength to get through these episodes though..

[identity profile] alexandral.livejournal.com 2007-11-19 01:03 am (UTC)(link)
This is so true - and the other one is music. Sometimes I hear something from the past and memories just flood in.. (I just realized that this is what Caroline was trying to do to Mick when she was playing his favourite song... )

[identity profile] earlgrayhot.livejournal.com 2007-11-19 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
I keep seeing you type Caroline ... and it just makes me laugh > I have a friend by that name and for the longest time every time she tried to type Coraline (Mick's ex) she would type her own name so from then on we've been calling Coraline ... "The Anagram" ;)

Oh yeah the evil ex was definitely trying to play with poor crazed Mick's head - You're right music, too, is such a strong reminder of the past!

[identity profile] alexandral.livejournal.com 2007-11-19 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
Hee! Thank you so much for mentioning it ** quickly edits her post **. I am like that - after "A Song of Ice and fire" books I often type Jamie as Jaime. AND YAY! To "Moonlight" loving friends!

Oh yeah the evil ex was definitely trying to play with poor crazed Mick's head - You're right music, too, is such a strong reminder of the past!

I wonder what it will take for him to break her spell - may be if Beth will be in danger??

[identity profile] earlgrayhot.livejournal.com 2007-11-19 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
It's so easy to get all anagramy with names/words like that! Oh yes, my friends and I went crazy on Saturday morning with lots and lots of fangirling ... so much fun!

I don't know how Mick'll be able to break Coralines hold on him but it has got to happen! You might be right, if Cor puts Beth in danger, it might do the trick but at the same time it might strengthen his resolve about being an unhealthy companion for Beth :(

Back to your post : Micks #13 ... First thought after rolling down the hill, his first thought is of Beth. --- One thing in addition to that, keeping my mind in the deep dark gutter, he also patted himself down quite a bit before saying "Beth" *heee*

oh my...

the pic where they are mirroring each other's body posture is amaaazing!

but the one that gets me is the one I least expected too,
the pic where Beth smells his clothes...

I don't know exactly why this pic get's me over the others.

If I had to say I think it would be something in the whole murking primal 'smelling of the object of you desire's clothes' thing which can either be "eeew!' inducing or have heart fluttering overtones.

Ok enough over analyzing ;) am done.

I'm so in love with this post that I'm giddy. My favorite reason? She drives him dorky. Hee. So cute.

[identity profile] neuriel.livejournal.com 2007-11-19 03:50 am (UTC)(link)
Great reasons! I'd like to add one more reason why Mick and Beth belong together: 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.

[identity profile] trystan830.livejournal.com 2007-11-19 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
oh awesome post!!

but under "Mick belongs to Beth , because:" you forgot #3. *hee*

This is what gets me the most too - it is so sensual sometimes and at the same time it is a pure love thing (and sometimes people I knew do it to the clothes of their babies. Babies smell so lovely. :D). I don't find it at all "ewwww" - it is just the thing about smells and memories, as [livejournal.com profile] earlgreayhot said.

[identity profile] alexandral.livejournal.com 2007-11-19 08:40 am (UTC)(link)
I love this too - as any tragic hero Mick tends to brood but Beth gets him out of this soooo easily. She makes him happy!

[identity profile] alexandral.livejournal.com 2007-11-19 08:41 am (UTC)(link)
I was thinking so often about "beauty and the Beast" recently. MUST REWATCH SOON!

[identity profile] alexandral.livejournal.com 2007-11-19 08:42 am (UTC)(link)
I love this reason - and it so true. With late-night pursuits I forgot one of the reasons and I am going to add this one. If you I a fine with this - I 'll credit !!!

[identity profile] alexandral.livejournal.com 2007-11-19 08:45 am (UTC)(link)
I am so glad you liked!!! EEE! I and thank you so much!! I guess I should do less of late-night obsessing over TV shows. :D. But it is good - I have one empty slot for [livejournal.com profile] neuriel's reason which is awesome.

In unconnected - I am so afraid of things to come I could not sleep properly. Go away, Coraline!!

[identity profile] ambergold.livejournal.com 2007-11-19 09:17 am (UTC)(link)
HEEE! lOVE LOVE love!! and btw - the other episodes of Goong arrives, so THANK you so much!! I am still half madly-stark-ravingly-mad obsessed with it, so this is good. :)
