every system has a flaw

this hurts too much

WTF PEOPLE GET OUTTTT also let’s all appreciate how Hanna was the catalyst for Root to believe that humans are bad code and how the Machine and then Shaw+Harold were the catalysts for her to start believing in the value of humans again I expect Root to pretty much go insane and I am 100% here for a storyline of Doubt coz you can’t fucking tell me Root isn’t gonna be upset at the Machine for somehow not saving Shaw no matter how irrational that idea is (via ohthesefeelingz)

R : Hey, sweetie, you busy?

S : A little. Skip the verbal foreplay, Root. Why you calling?

R : Can’t a couple of gals take a little break from work to catch up?

S : I’ve been arrested and you’re fighting an AI apocalypse so, no, we don’t have time to catch up.

R : Well, there’s no need to be rude.

S : I am not having this conversation right now.

R : There’s no time like the present, Sameen. Why are you so afraid to talk about your feelings?

S : [Scoffs] Feelings? I’m a sociopath. I don’t have feelings.

R : And I’m a reformed killer for hire. We’re perfect for each other. You’re gonna figure that out someday.

*Just look at that face ❤ *

S : Root, if you and I were the last two people on the face of this planet …

R : An increasingly plausible scenario given Samaritan’s plans.

S : Fine. Maybe someday, when Samaritan wipes everyone out… we can talk about it.

R : You’re saying maybe someday?

S : Yeah, sure, Root. Maybe someday. Is that good enough for you?

R : Yes, Sameen. That’s good enough for me.

S : Root? Root!

#Every time I see this scene #I can’t help but think about ‘I am not #having this conversation right now.’ #Shaw knows exactly where Root is going with this. #And to me #this makes me think Shaw knew it was inevitable. #That one day #it would all come out. #Even though she wants to hold it back #as long as possible #she still knew to some degree that there was going to be a ‘feelings’ talk. #However as Root keeps pressing on the subject #Shaw visibly gets past that #’I can’t talk about this it’s too alien for me’ #specifically when she tells Root #’Fine’. #By that point even though she is still being her difficult self #she stops making excuses to the things Root is really asking #and gives her an honest answer. #And of course #there’s that tiny little mother fucking smile #when she finally gets it off of her chest. #The little things honestly make this show.
