The Scarlet/Destiny Thing
Moderator: Spectrum Strike Force
I say that Scarlet falls in love to easy. Destiny, Astrid Winters (Achilles Messenger), Susan Todd (Rain of Terror), all are girls he seemed to like. Also, all blondes. Maybe they are more manipulative...
Destiny...where do I start. SHE IS A COMPLETE WET BLANKET!!! She's obviously after anyone who's going, and while she's chasing, she manages to get in some really, REALLY stupid lines e.g. '...the sea...mmmm....as blue as your eyes...'
The whole thing dosen't seem realistic (I mean...I know it isn't. CGI, and what-not...but still...), the 'emotion' is just sickening etc. etc.
Why can't they act a bit more like Green and Blue? Jules de Jongh (Green) can get emotion across convincingly. So can Robbie Stevens (Blue). Why can't they?
Okay, rant over!
P.S. Yes, I DO know that Green/Blue aren't dating (unfortunately...), But they DO like each other. See 'Swarm' or 'The Homecoming'...

I love the 'shipping aspect of fandoms as much as anyone else, but ugh. They're annoying enough on their own, so together it's really bad. Got to be about the naffest cringe-worthy courtship I've seen in a good while. Though as a femist I wouldn't put all/most of the blame on Destiny, they're as bad as each other.
Subtle definetly is the way to go.

Did they?
I can think of two instances from the first series - guarding the Colonel and his daugher in Heist, and going climbing together in Skin Deep - that suggest they'd been dating for longer...

Okay, I'm rambling. I'll shut up...

With the climbing thing there was some mention of 'falling for someone' (can't remember the exact phrasing) and then Scarlet doing a lovesick puppy face while looking at their photos from the trip.

And I hate to say it but Captain Magenta is a berk in this new show. Some clodhopping Italian arse taking the place of the chipper Irish/American bumbling fool? Damn it all!

That's not the worst of it, my lad. Oh dear me no...

He's in the very first episode, at Black's funeral...the briefing scene in Touch of the Reaper...he's part of the raid on Vulcan Industries HQ (leaping heroically out of an elevator to pull his gun on a man who's already got about a dozen pointing at him anyway) in Syrtis Major, he gets to go to the Moon and be captured by Black in Duel, and is part of the manhunt for Captain Scarlet in Shapeshifter.
He gets no lines anywhere else in the series.
