Dunno when I’ll get around to season 2 but here’s some Alex doodles for now

mejacinta:

Tom is jealous of Kyra because she and Alex share the Point Blanc connection that he’s been trying without success to get Alex to open up about; his lifelong best friend, ever since the events of season 1.

Think of the frustration. Your friend returns a completely changed person, haunted with something you’ve not seen or experienced in order to help him. And I think that’s the core of Tom’s issue: he feel useless, unable to help Alex with what he’s going through. He’s trying to come to terms with the fact that Alex is now of a new, strange world and he, Tom, doesn’t belong in it.

So when Kyra shows up and Alex finally gets relief and a person to actually recount the events of Point Blanc with, and sort of fork through the murk of it all, Tom feels dejected, useless and unwanted. Left out and like he doesn’t fit in. Like he can’t do anything to help, at least not enough.

That’s why he ends up lashing out at Kyra and being super protective of his friendship with Alex. I’m glad that in the end he realized he’s still valuable.

One thing I really do love in the Alex Rider TV adaption, both in season 1 and now in season 2 is the constant subtle hints that Alex is actually not your usual kid, despite still being very early in his character arc.

And I’m not talking about the flashy parkour sequences or fight scenes. I mean the offhand comment that Alex knows about the law, or is extremely involved in multiple outdoor activities. His character is shown to have an intelligence and ambition above his peers, be proficient with a gun and competent in tasks that while as simple as pitching a tent, highlight he’s already a class above his own and most likely has extensive knowledge on other useful topics too.

While it’s nice to see him show off a little in the bigger scenes and get a glimpse of the spy extraordinaire to come, it’s also brilliant to see the impact of Alex’s upbringing with Ian included frequently in seemingly mundane scenes and is something I’ve enjoyed picking up on.

just finished watching alex rider season 2 and i can’t stop thinking about alex saying to yassen ‘you work for cray now? do what he tells you? like a dog.’ and the parallels between that line and these two lines from russian roulette… wow ok

NOOO WHY WOULD YOU POINT THAT OUT

eliotquillon:

so many potential outcomes for yassen in s3 but at least scurvy isn’t one of them. an orange a day keeps special operations away!
