Here Vera, I made this for you so you can worship Olivia Dunham.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH NORA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

bsidegirl asked: It's so sad that there's still a part of the fandom - and what's worse,a female part of the fandom - who denies of Olivia's awesomeness. I mean, SHE WAS YOUR LEADING LADY! She was THE female, the one you're suppose to look and say "I want to be like her when I grow up" and stuff like that!!! I understand loving a male character, but at the cost of HATING THE ONE YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO FEEL IDENTIFY WITH AND IMITATE? I don't get it!!!

There’s nothing more inherently wrong than the fact that the greatest misogyny often happens amongst women. So yeah, it’s absolutely mind-boggling that anyone would not immediately imprint on this gift of a leading female. I don’t understand how anyone would dismiss the miracle that is a character who is NEVER a damsel-in-distress, who ALWAYS saves herself (and this at least, Joel and the writers never forgot), who has emotions, who always puts everyone ahead of her own feelings, who is SO MULTI-DIMENSIONAL THAT THERE’S LITERALLY TWO OF HER and they’re both total individuals. I don’t get how this is NOT someone’s favorite thing, because Olivia Dunham is absolutely my very favorite thing.

bsidegirl:

i don’t want olivia to forget the future before the reset because i want her to remember howbadass she was as a fugitive lacerated tied up and drugged and nevermind that bullet she is the woman who keeps saving the world

“For four seasons, the Bishop Boys provided plenty of emotional highs, and certainly drove a lot of the narrative. But Olivia’s role in “Fringe” as a whole was central. She was the one experimented on as a child. She was the one bred for war without her knowledge. She was someone designed as a pawn but has vast reserves of inner strength that provided her agency. She was vitally important by every conceivable metric. But her cortexiphan-laced biology was NOT the thing that made her special. Her resolve, her compassion, and her moral purpose helped keep everyone in check. Once her cortexiphan reserves were drained in the Season 4 finale, the show pushed her further and further into the recesses of the show, often keeping her offscreen for long periods of time while Walter and Peter figured out how to proceed. The Olivia we once knew was gone, replaced onscreen by a shell of that entity.

There’s no reason each character need stay the same over the course of a show. Things ebb and flow as story dictates. But Season 5 of “Fringe” isn’t the same as, say, Season 4 of “The Wire”. McNulty’s relative absence that season made sense. Olivia never went away this season to that extent, but she certainly disappeared in terms of overall importance to the story. Only when re-injected with the drug was she re-injected into active engagement with the storyline, allowing her to make four jumps to and from the red universe and then smash Windmark with a car after draining the power out of New York City. Cool? Sure. But Olivia Dunham was great without the active use of cortexiphan for years. Bringing it back now only served to show how underutilized Anna Torv has been this season.”

As much as I’m in love with events in “Liberty” and the moment we’d all be waiting for in the finale re: cortexiphan powers, it bums me out that, at the end of the day, it feels like a consolation prize.
