character of the week:
angus mccain



in an effort to shut up the demons in my head that want me to change every one of my icons to the latest and greatest in bonworld i'm going to be doing character of the week. much more sustainable than my previously implemented character page system i think. these will also probably be my least mobile friendly and accessible pages because i want to do them collage style. my apologies.
week of june 30th features angus mccain, 1950s spin doctor who cant even spin himself not-gay enough to stop getting blackmailed. he spends 11.5 of the 12 hours that the hour consists of either enacting devious schemes and tapping his fingers together in a conniving manner or looking pathetic while being blackmailed. AGAIN.

i was decidedly on the fence about him for the majority of the show because boy is he annoying, but despite his constant, irritating meddling i think he's a very well-conceived of character and is extraordinarily compelling once you take into account his actions at the final hour. when you begin to understand that his story is one of self-preservation it gets a whole lot more interesting.
spoilers
the ending when he decides to sort of take kiki under his wing I CRIED!!!!! patricia. delaine. finally using his powers of media manipulation for good. i like to imagine that after s2 he is the one in charge of protecting her and together they go on to build a wonderful media firm together and she is the face of it.
cannot believe ive fallen into the clutches of yet another weird british guy #saveme
