Pfffffffffff TINY
I mean on some level I think I should have expected leprechauns to be small in this universe but. They're weird in so many other ways, I was half expecting a human-sized woman.
......hate it
I started an edit but had to pause because of the Cursed Yet Subtle difference.
Why does this not sit so well with me
Aw :)
((Guys this is an edit please don't come for me 😅))
Doodled our Chief of Staff at work
​
Would have been better with a reference pic at hand 😅
What? Who?
​
Like I thought maybe he was the second pilot guy, but I can't tell??
Tattoos
​
(( I don't do fanart very often, can you tell? 😅))
Do any of O'Doyle's tattoos have real-world meaning?
​
Like obviously they have some kind of personal significance, but do any of the symbols have some kind of meaning in the real world? Protection or w/e
Noticed on a rewatch
He CAUGHT the casing :D
Do you think the other robots cared about Gun Baby?
Or was he just a test asset to them?
O'Doyle tattoo reference
Yeah they're not great, but this is just a rough trace for drawing reference.
I think I missed two or three--one on his shoulder I couldn't get a good full image for, a tribal band on his thigh that was never fully in frame, and...eh...whatever's under the blur 😅
On O'Doyle's design
​
When we think Secret Service, there are a few character design choices that tend to stick around. Dark suit, earpiece...and, for the purposes of this post, the most distinguishing accessory: a pair of dark glasses.
My kneejerk reaction to hearing O'Doyle was Secret Service was that he doesn't much look it. I've been so conditioned to think "Presidential bodyguards = mysterious sunglasses" that it just seemed strange to me. And for a guy that hates his supernatural heritage, you'd think he'd want to cover up the one feature on his face that immediately marks him as Other (slitted pupils when everyone else is asterisks).
But that's not who O'Doyle is. He hates deception, trickery, dishonesty...hiding part of his face, even if it would make him more "human-passing", would fall into that category. He'd almost be lying about who he really is.
You meet your soulmate
You two are perfect for one another in every way--you make each other happy, accept the other's flaws, help to fix what's broken inside and make you both better as people. If ever there was an argument for the one-soul-split theory, you two are it.
One night, as you're wrapped in each others' arms, you have a vision. You are going to sie--maybe in a year, maybe in a decade, but definitely before your time. You see heartache for your surviving partner, days, weeks, and maybe years of depression and grief, but ultimately they will heal and move on.
Here's the catch: you can only stop this future by breaking things off before the vision passes. You can't stop your death--that's coming regardless. But you can save your partner the grief of losing you, give them a chance to find new love and avoid even knowing of your passing. It'll hurt them at first when you break up, but slightly less than if you'd died after a happy relationship of love and laughter.
Do you leave your soulmate now, or when you leave this mortal plane?
Aww look how concerned he is ☺️
Also THAT SMILE AGAIN
Something neat I noticed in "Triangle"
When arguing about why he shouldn't go undercover, O'Doyle specifically says "I **never** lie." Not "I **can't** lie," just that he doesn't do it.
I assumed he COULDN'T lie because of the whole Fae blood thing, but after the whole "Because then my mother wins" in the next episode, I'm re-hearing some lines with added context.
That also adds something to the whole "The hologram lied, not me," from the pilot. O'Doyle isn't compelled to clarify, he does it because he wants it to be a HUNDRED percent clear he's being honest.
He's doing it again!
I am so glad we seem to be getting more scenes with casual O'Doyle, he looks so happy 😭😭😭
No, but this is even funnier
​
If we assume Curtis was telling the truth about having GERD. Man can't even have REGULAR hot wings without hurting himself, and here he is reaching for a bowl of death chicken 😅
