I CAN'T BELIEVE THE CONVERSATION WE HAD AND I WAS LIKE "HOW MUCH WOULD IT COST TO MOVE UNIVERSES? I MEAN THAT'S AN EXPENSIVE MOVING VAN TO RENT" BECAUSE I NEVER REALLY THOUGHT THE BLUE ONE WOULD GO THERE ON A PERMANENT-ISH BASIS TO BE WITH ALTLIV BUT OMG IT SEEMS LEGIT CANON NOW!!!
I guess for now I'm suspecting shenanigans too because otherwise it's such a bad writing move that I'm like O_O. So let's just roll with it until the big twist and reveal. And we get Altliv in a Fringe Division Fancy Uniform next week. Woooooo!!!!!!
I KNOW I KIND OF COULDN'T BELIEVE WE WERE JUST TALKING ABOUT THIS AND THEN THIS HAPPENED KIND OF EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE WAY.
BUT OMG YES OUR LINCOLN IN THE AU. WITH ALT!LIVIA.
And the way our Olivia looked at him like she didn't even remember they were friends let alone basically in love once. And then Alt!Livia that he's only met twice was like "OMG I MISSED YOU FACE, LET'S HAVE SOME FUN, WHERE'S MY COFFEE?"
AND I BASICALLY SERIOUSLY NEED THE PARTS OF THIS EPISODE WITH BOTH LINCOLNS AND ALT!LIV TO LAST FOREVER AND IF WE JUST NEVER GO BACK TO OUR UNIVERSE I'D ACTUALLY KIND OF BE OK WITH THAT.
because otherwise it's such a bad writing move that I'm like O_O
I KNOW OMG when they first said that "he didn't make it", I was like "...................WHUT. I am not ok with this development because I refuse to let Lincoln die without getting the death scene", but then I was like "ok, wait, I CALL SHENANIGANS"... and then the episode ended and we still hadn't seen a body, so I decided there was basically no way it WASN'T shenanigans
( ... )
Plus, as a rule on television, I don't believe it until I see a corpse. :p Yeah, and sometimes even then... Let's just say that in some fandoms death is less permanent than others. XD
I'm pretty sure I've heard Fringe cast say at least a half dozen times that the best way to guarantee you come back to the show is if you get killed off, so.
Plus this show has FUCKING DOPPELGANGERS EVERYWHERE. So seeing a body? 100% not conclusive.
But mostly I'm just sure he faked his death. Because, yeah. TOO MANY REASONS.
We have an entire episode hitting us over the head with a sledgehammer about how Alt!Lincoln is gonna die
I thought that the show was hitting us over the head about how our Lincoln was going to die! Seriously, the whole episode I was freaking out thinking that he was going to just drop dead at any second. So to me, as terrible as it sounds, it almost came as a relief that it was Alt!Lincoln who apparently got the axe instead of our Lincoln. I love them both, but our Lincoln just holds a special place in my heart. ;_;
But yeah, that was definitely some seriously sketchy writing if Alt!Lincoln really and truly is dead. I mean, the first Lincoln to ever be introduced on the show and they don't even give him the courtesy of a death scene? And if he was really in such critical condition, wouldn't Fauxlivia be at his side at the hospital rather than just farting around HQ? Suspicious for sure. I hope you're right that he's not really dead!

hahaha, I totally thought our Lincoln wasn't gonna survive the season, AND THEN THIS EPISODE HAPPENED. And from like the first scene where Lincoln was in the AU, I was like "...oh fuck." because I realized they were totally setting up our Lincoln to totally feel like he belongs in the AU and be happy there and never want to go back, and that Alt!Lincoln would die so he could take his place...
Then it actually happened, and I was almost immediately like "...dude. dying off screen? we don't even see a body? SHENANIGANS."
I genuinely have zero doubts that he is still alive. Even if they show us a body at this point I'll just figure it's some kind of shapeshifter fake out courtesy Walternate. It will seriously take SHOWING US A DEATH SCENE for me to believe he's really dead.
And if he was really in such critical condition, wouldn't Fauxlivia be at his side at the hospital rather than just farting around HQ? AND THIS. He was obviously

I found this entry linked on tumblr, since everyone is looking for explanations how Captain Lee did not die. To be honest, right after watching the episode I was so sad that I couldn't think about an explanation. Now (that I stopped crying...) it seems much more logical that he faked his death and you basically have the explanation I want to will believe in, at least until next week.

I totally would, only I basically never read fic, I pretty much just make up stories in my head instead.
I'd share those with you, but that could be... weird.

Because if it's not true, then the writers seriously dropped the ball, and wtf. And on this show, the writers just do not do ball dropping. Ever.
Plus, as a rule on television, I don't believe it until I see a corpse. :p
