Speaking of nameless background characters that I get briefly but wildly obsessed with when I rewatch Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood every year, there's also this bank employee that has maybe a minute of screentime:
I do have to object to the novelization of the Giggle saying that the Doctor bought his own house in London with his UNIT salary. The Doctor would never be responsible enough to vacuum or buy groceries and stuff. The Doctor should be the Noble family’s unemployed housecat who wakes up at 12 noon every day and plays video games on the couch
Opponents of an expansion to a marine container port on B.C.'s South Coast held a news conference in Vancouver Wednesday to reiterate their concerns about the impact on the environment and local jobs if the project, recently approved by the federal government, goes ahead.
"There's times when we do need to say, 'No. We do need to say 'no,'" said Rueben George, a member of the Tsleil-Waututh Nation, as he pointed to his nation's territorial waters behind him from Vancouver's CRAB Park with the Port of Vancouver in the background.
The group of those publicly opposing the Roberts Bank Terminal 2 (RBT2) in Delta, B.C., about 35 kilometres south of Vancouver, is growing and now includes two unions, the International Longshore & Warehouse Union of Canada and the B.C. General Employees' Union, along with a dozen conservation organizations.
By the way when I say "businesses are hostile to people not available in mornings (ie people who sleep during am hours thanks to grave shift, or people who work mornings, etc)" I mean banks, doctor offices, DMVs, dentists, etc should be open to 9pm, not that Walmart should reopen to its pre-covid 24.7 hours hope this helps
wait pond hid in the bushes to film the pool scene?? I didn't know that 😭🤣
I was joking, but only the wording! I don't think there was actually a bush on the rooftop (at least from the angles they shot from)!
Friends, let's talk about the LORE of KPTS Episode 13's Pool Scene.
Basically, several memorable scenes in the series were just Pond (director/producer, and CEO of BOC whom we are judging for that right now) walking by a scene and thinking it looked beautiful and decided they were going to film a scene there.
One of them was the episode 6 bath scene. (And yes, it's possible to get the handcuffs off, I thought the same thing when I first watched. No I'm not looking it for you, find the proof yourself!)
Another one was them was the pool in the hotel suite they used as Kinn's room in the series.

So yes, it was very limited staff, like all of the NC scenes.
The pool scene was entirely improvised by Mile and Apo. I'm sure the two of them discussed what they were going to do in the scene before it was shot, but improvised as in there was no specific direction. Pond told them they were going to shoot there and what the tone of the scene was.
So all the sexiness including Porsche mock pinning Kinn before Kinn slide him across the pool and railing him against the backdrop of nighttime Bangkok and Deutsche Bank was all on Mile and Apo. 😍🥰 *sighs dreamily*
Actually, since I just reblogged this old pride photo a few days ago. This is actually what I was thinking of when I reblogged it.
It was very beautiful art they made together...
There's so much to say about this, but I'll keep it short. Like all of Kinn and Porsche's sex scenes, it served narrative purpose. The physical and verbal affirmation that they loved each other and are on each other's sides before all the shit that hits the fan in the 11:30th hour.
@dancinbutterfly wrote this beautiful meta about Mile and Apo's reaction video when the two of them watched it together the first time too. I highly recommended everyone read it if they haven't!
my new favorite thing to do is go to char ai and tell narinder bots that baal and aym spent his gold on robux, and also convince him that his sibling banished him there for his gambling problem and that he lost his temple in a knucklebone bet
why does everything i get really into always end up being so god damn niche. by the year 2035 i am going to be blogging exclusively about the interpersonal relationships between the pillbugs and snails hiding underneath the bricks lining the flowerbeds in my parent's garden.
it's cool that a bank can just fullass go 'we're locking your card' at a whim and prevent me from accessing my own money. that's just great. can't say i'm a fan
