Disclaimer: participating in this game using anything with actual alcohol content will most likely kill you quickly, so don’t.

You know. In retrospect this was a cruelly prophetic drinking game for the 5th season finale in particular.

Will you please gif all the Eve scenes from the finale, especially the scenes with her and Nick?? And VERY especially the scene where Nick carries her into the Batcave??? THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Unfortunately, my computer is getting really old and likes to do things like freeze and crash when I try to run Photoshop for too long at a time. So it might take a while to fill this request. But I’ll do my best to fill it! In the meantime, I have made a few gifs from the ep and a lot of others have as well, so check out this tag to see what I’ve reblogged/giffed already from the episode! ❤

BUT…. EVE BEING DEFENSIVE OF NICK. EVE BEING PROTECTIVE OF NICK. EVE BEING WORRIED/CONCERNED ABOUT NICK. EVE CHARGING IN TO SAVE NICK. NICK CARING ABOUT EVE. NICK WORRYING ABOUT EVE. NICK HOLDING EVE IN HIS ARMS. NICK SAVING EVE. NICK REALIZING THE GIRL IN HIS ARMS IS NO LONGER EVE. NICK SEEING JULIETTE BREAK OUT FROM THE WALLS SHE’S BEEN TRAPPED BEHIND ALL SEASON.

I KNOW ANON I KNOW. I’M STILL EMOTIONAL ABOUT IT. THE WAY HE LOOKS AT HER. THE WAY SHE LOOKS AT HIM. THE WAY HE CARRIES HER AWAY FROM DANGER. THE WAY HE REVEALS ONE OF HIS BIGGEST SECRETS IN ORDER TO SAVE HER. HIM. HER. I CAN’T OKAY. I CAN’T.

Ah but see, Hexenbeitst side effects. Being a Hexenbeist isn’t a side effect no matter how it happened, plus if it was the being a hexenbeist why is it side effects instead of side effect. Maybe it just means the whole homicidal, cruel, evil changes it made to her. Cause I mean Adalind’s showing Hexenbeists aren’t automatically like that. Unless it is being a hexenbeist, in which case I’m wrong. Hope not though, with Wu going all cave man she’d be the only one with no real protection.

Juliette’s transformation has been referred to, both in canon and by the cast and writers–and in fandom too, for that matter–as a “side effect” or “side effects” since it happened. David is the master of being coy in interviews, so again it’s possible that she’s still a hexenbiest. But I don’t personally find it very likely based on that choice of words alone, just because there’s so much precedent already for simply referring to Juliette’s whole hexenbiest transformation, with rather comically gross understatement, as “side effects.”

Also, the writers have kind of written themselves into a corner by constantly insisting via both Adalind and Eve this season that being a hexenbiest or a zauberbiest does make a person homicidal, cruel, and evil (and power-hungry), whether they want to be that way or not, unless there’s some kind of outside intervention (i.e. HW brainwashing or a suppressant).

Granted, the writers have yet to explain how that jives with Adalind’s current behavior or all of her previous bad behavior while she didn’t have her powers, but that doesn’t unwrite what they’ve written so much as make me go:
