REBLOG IF YOU THINK ABBIE MILLS DESERVES SO MUCH BETTER

Abbie Mills is a queen and she deserves not only a better storyline but a better EVERYTHING

Abbie, drawn in PS.

Sleepy Hollow is switching from daddy issues to mommy ones in season two. The Mentalist alum Aunjanue Ellis has been tapped to play Lori Mills, the late mother of Abbie and Jenny, EW has learned exclusively.

Abbie Mills Face Appreciation Post

And another thing...

You know the racist trope of black women being hyper-sexualized and de-sexualized all at once? You can really see how certain parts of the fandom are doing this to Abbie. I knew this was already present in the fandom, but now it’s glaringly obvious

a)  Accusing Abbie of being “all over” Ichabod – because black women are overly sexual jezebels out to get everybody’s man, right?

b)  In the same breath, demeaning Abbie with SBW trope and insisting her and Ichabod have a bromance/brother sister/*insert other platonic relationship here*

These yt devils really out here we ain’t know about their coded language tho. 

We survive learning codes and knowing when to switch them. It’s something they can’t seem to grasp at all.

Damn. You're so absolutely right tho. I aint even think about how much that's exactly what's playing out. In one breath they're like "OMG ABBIE NEEDS TO STOP CRUSHING ICHABOD SHE IS TRYING TO RUIN THEIR MARRIAGE" and in the next "AW LOOK AT THOSE BUDDIES! MUCH CHASTE! VERY FRIENDSHIP!"

Fuck these rhesus monkeys brah.

come back to me.

what pisses me off most about the introduction of floptrina’s parents is the fact that i know it’s an attempt by goffman to make his white fave seem more interesting. but let’s be real, it’s too late. no one cares about katrina’s character development.

secondly, we haven’t met mama and papa mills yet. so far crane’s wife, son, father, and ex-bff have been introduced and next season we’re gonna meet his boring ass in-laws. the most we’ve seen of abbie’s family is jenny and briefly grace and joseph dixon. the scales are unbalanced in favor of crane and his boring ass family and i’m tired of it.  

i wanna know why mama mills made abbie and jenny memorize bible verses. i wanna know about her illness and what ultimately made her leave her babies. i wanna know where she is now. i wanna know why papa mills drank so much. i wanna know why he left his wife and daughters. i wanna know where he is now.

i adore crane, but what i don’t want is more of crane’s family drama at the expense of abbie.

I know a lot of people think I ship Ichabbie, and to be sure, I’m not against it a would love it to be canon but I’m findng myself more and more unwilling to ship it. Not because of the chemistry - that actually makes it really hard not to ship it because…

Yes exactly. All of this. It’s even more telling with how they played Luke. Because they really could be at least friends again, maybe lovers. Instead Abbie rebuffs him unnecessarily and Andy outs the fear of god in him. With Corbin deceased the only other person in Abbie’s life it’s her sister. And that’s fine until we are shown that she’s not a priority but Crane and his happiness is. So Abbie is set up took be this chaste nun that ships Ichatrina. Girl what about your happiness?

Can't even really much add to this, cuz every damn thing I've been thinking ya'll put out there. I lost my shipping juice in the middle and have since been silently supporting ya'll but no longer on board... more like on dock. The beginning was cute, when their bond was really about them, so it seemed. The partnership and the two witnesses having each other's backs, and exploring Abbie's emotions and relationships.

Then it did a full swap on us and made it all about the poorly contrived ichatrina and Ichabod’s angst, while in the meantime Abbie was sidelined and told countless times by Ichabod to stay out of his business and wait out front while he saves the day. And she's just cool with being his emotional beck and call. She's okay framing her life around him. Who is Corbin? Who is Luke? Who is Andy? Who is Jenny?

Then all of Ichabod’s rancid behavior is swept under the rug and they're cool with each other, but all he does is blah blah blah Katrina. And Tom can't even muster a fragment of deep emotion in that woman's presence and every time she's even mentioned I'm painfully aware that I'm watching a TV show. The illusion is broken.

But basically... Yeah. They're not treating Abbie right in this show. They can talk all day about co leads but she has become Ichabod’s Robin and they're not exploring her depths anymore and are doing her relationships little justice. Ichabod and Abbie are not equal in the narrative as her life is now framed around the Cranes and their poor decision. But, apparently, she doesn't mind it.

Yeah fuck that.

CAN WE TALK ABOUT ICHABOD AND ABBIE’S FRIENDSHIP PLEASE

#ULTIMATE BROTP

Last time I check Abbie does not identify as a man so why are people still referring to her a bro?

are they still gonna be the ultimate brotp when they fuck each other senseless

#im just gonna troll people from now on#tired of trying to knock some sense into fools lmao

Oh I’ve completely given up at this point. Why should I hold back in the face of endless stupidity?

making fun of them is better for my sanity

And, once again, the OP’s blog is still a shrine to white people. Just once, I would like to see something else, but that would be asking too much it seems.

IKR? ULTIMATE BROTP!

I honestly wouldn’t even mind the friendship thing so much if they didn’t insist on desexualizing Abbie in order to maintain it. They’ll talk a pretty lie about how refreshing it is to see a man and a woman lead be just friends while trying to take away Abbie’s identity as a woman. 

Exactly. No one gives a fuck if you're scared of a black woman in a healthy, loving relationship. You are not new. But let her remain a woman.

"This isn’t real…This is a dream"

I wanted to cry when Abbie held Corbin's face. She really misses him. We weren't allowed to see her struggling with that. Not enough.

sleepy hollow + tropes: abbie mills

JFC THIS IS LITERALLY THE WORST THING EVER NOOO

Well hopefully this inspire some lesbian fan fiction because lord knows there’s not enough

Abbie/Katrina smut … 

Abbie sees through the BS and doesn’t have the time for the lies. So…nah she’s good.

#My hatred for Katrina won’t even let me see them as potential friends #Bitch tried to kill her that one time too #Nope keep her farrrrr away from Abbie

why is she gonna sacrifice herself to free katrina for the greater good or some shit though… i mean i only watched the trailer for the finale once but i feel like this is happening? i don’t know

i don’t want to know

IDK it makes no damn sense at all. Abbie’s not some save a hoe and there is no greater good in freeing Ms. Shady pants from Purgatory. Between Orlando’s tweet about the reactions of us which coming from him is side eye worthy and anon’s post…I’m seriously gonna need some alcohol in my system and I hate alcohol. 

yep i’m gonna be like 

I’d readily incest ship Abbie/Jenny before even considering an Abbie/Katricka friendship. That witch bitch too basic to so much as smell Abbie’s air.

If they try to make Abbie the Righteous sacrificing herself for the greater White good, I'm afraid I'mma havta bounce. I'm not here for no Abbie - Katrina buddy team thing either. Like they need to leave the things that work, aka ichabbie, the Mills kicking at and mending their bond etc etc, aloneeee. No more ichatrina pushed at us at Abbie's expense. And no more martyr Abbie mess either. I am not and won't be here for that.

#i would literally watch an hour long show of Nicole Beharie’s face#because she would tell me a story that was infinitely more complicated and nuanced and interesting and thoughtful and emotional that 90% of#the other crap that’s currently out there#i mean seriously#literally she is blinking in this moment and you can tell so much about her#that she’s irked but she’s not going to say anything about it because her lips remain closed#so this eye roll is instinctual#and the fact that she then looks down#because she’s still thinking#and she’s trying to process things#and decide how to react based on that instead of her gut reaction#which shows that she’s a planner and not impulsive like Ichabod#like bless her talent

I think all that needs to be said has been said
