ladyofavalon77 | Don't bother me now...I'm in mourning...

After the wonderful day yesterday, I was due for some bad news. Why oh why must I read spoilers!! Why of all the times I decide to start must I be punished with this horrible news. After learning the truth of what's to come, I am hereby withdrawing into the safety of my Martha/Charles fandom and wish not to be disturbed while I enter a period of mourning for what is about to come. Don't read further if you don't want to be spoiled.

So here is the horrible truth: Martha ends up stabbing Charles in the shoulder when he goes to visit her. Of all the terrible things the writers could do, this has hurt me the most. I already steeled myself for her to be with Aaron. I even started to accept it as good for her since he's an honorable, steadfast guy. And then I get this news and I cannot play the fence any longer. All I want to do is talk about how good it was before the 24 writers messed everything up. All I wanted was a reconciliation between them...where they realized they had both made mistakes and uneasy trace was set up. He accepted her new choice of husband/boyfriend and she accepted that he was trying to repent. However, let's say they didn't want to do that. Then I expected some really great arguing scenes where Martha ends up getting the upper hand. NOT THAT SHE FREAKING STABS HIM!! I don't even care if he dies...I just hate that she has stooped so low as to stab her former husband. He only deserved it if he raped or tortured her. But no...for most of the day, he tried to reconcile with her. The truth is...if she has really lost her head and stepped out of the realm of the rational...then Charles deserves someone better. Someone who understands him and won't stoop to stupid violent actions like stabbing instead of talking or arguing the issues like a rational person. The only problem is...she's his perfect match when she's not crazy. And I can't imagine anyone else beside him. Therefore, my period of mourning has begun.

I'l backdate this post tomorrow about Prison Break and 24. There were some good parts. Please comment if you have any words of encouragement. If not, I'll understand

Wow. I don't know where you heard this, but it sounds intense. Are you sure it's reliable?

If it is, I can see where she's coming from, I guess. He did betray her in the worst way possible. I'm guessing that she never really had a chance to deal with what happened, due to him being under house arrest and I doubt she wanted to see him, so maybe it just boils up and she loses it.

And if it helps, I know what you're going through! I was utterly shocked when Nina betrayed Jack, and had an absolute panic attack. But their relationship wound up working even better that way...it was so intense that no one else could even hope to understand it.

But maybe this isn't true? You never know.

However this source has been reliable in the past for spoilers. I don't see how she goes fighting with him with words to taking hold of a knife and stabbing him. It's just...too horrible for words. I hope you're right that it turns out good like with Jack/Nina but I'm afraid it won't. So I'm in mourning until it's over.

Don't bother me now...I'm in mourning...
