Reasons to ship Midge X Lenny from the Marvellous Mrs Maisel
The show is very feminist and relevant, despite being set in a time period that was awash with sexism and misogyny. Lenny is a great example of that, being the first male character to see Midge as more than a housewife or mother, and he never once doubts her skills as a female comedian.
. He is (or at least tries to be) a gentleman, giving up his taxi so Midge gets home safe, pays for her and Benjamin’s table on their date, and gives Midge his coat to wear on a cold night when he bails her out of jail and she loses hers.
. They have an irresistible chemistry between them - witty banter, some lingering looks - but what’s more than that is they’re more alike than they know. They’re both controversial, outspoken comedians who don’t give a hoot in hell about not being allowed to say “obscene” things on stage, but you get the feeling they both feel quite lonely and tired sometimes, which is why I love the scene in the bar so much.
It’s the first time we see Lenny vulnerable, shockingly different from the charming, slick character we’re used to. And the fact that they find each other right when they’re both feeling tired and disheartened and like giving up and they’re able to confide in each other says a lot about their relationship. Watching this scene from an outsider’s viewpoint you’d think these people have been friends for years, but in the show they’ve only known each other just under a year and even then rarely see each other, but they’ve got this connection that’s so intimate and interesting to watch. They’re both clearly attracted to each other but never either a) act on it or b) have actually realised it yet, but there’s some casual flirting that just warms my shipper heart🥰:
1. Lenny: “I heard some cute uptown chick got arrested doing a set, I put two and two together.”
Midge: “Called me cute, huh?”
2. Lenny: “Wait, was I supposed to make a pass at you?” (My personal favourite 🥰)
3. Lenny: “Does he know?”
Midge: “Know what?”
Lenny: “That you’ve been corrupted. Lured to the dark side of the microphone…”
Midge: “One. Date.”
Aagh, their chemistry!😍And those lingering looks and smiles and the way they literally light up around each other you can’t help but get drawn in - also literally everyone on the show thinks they’re slept together or are sleeping together 😅😉 Even while Midge is on her date with Benjamin, we get that delightful scene with Lenny and she absolutely glows, because, in my opinion, they just bring out the best in each other and it really shows on the screen.
I’ll ship it die I die!😍😍 *Jumps into the fandom trashcan*
Archangels Gabriel and Michael sat glowering at the nearby hovering screen. It was emitting chimes practically nonstop.
13:24:45: [Aziraphale] Moved one (1) plastic cup to trash bin. 13:24:47: [Aziraphale] Moved one (1) cigarette butt to trash bin. 13:24:48: [Aziraphale] Moved one (1) plastic straw to trash bin. 13:24:49: [Aziraphale] Moved one (1) styrofoam container to trash bin. 13:24:52: [Aziraphale] Moved one (1) left sock to trash bin.
“Why doesn’t he just miracle all of them in at once?” Michael asked in frustration.
“You damn well know why,” Gabriel muttered. Ever since that horrifying day that Aziraphale stood in a column of demonfire and then belched out a gout of it at them, it seemed that he was going out of his way to just piss off the management with incessant spam.
Gabriel sighed in relief when he saw that the onslaught of messages stopped for a bit. “Anyway. I was thinking that if we do want to arrange for the Big One™, we might want to–”
Ding!
13:25:49: [Aziraphale] Removed one (1) Swastika graffiti.
Michael glanced at the screen. Then she shrugged and shared a nod with Gabriel. “Fair.”
“… we might want to have you get a few more ‘contacts’ in low places, if you know what I mean,” Gabriel continued.
Michael took a breath to respond.
Ding!
13:25:58: [Aziraphale] Applied one (1) graffiti reading ‘Gabriel <3 Beelzebub.’
Michael stared at Gabriel, her eyebrows twitching up questioningly.
Gabriel shifted uncomfortably in his chair, “… well, now he’s just being petty. Come on, Aziraphale.”
Michael decided to ignore it and move on, “I may be able to make some arrangements. Even if the holy water didn’t work out as planned, the exchange was still marked as satisfactory…”
Ding!
13:26:15: [Aziraphale] Applied one (1) graffiti reading ‘Gabriel = Gross Matter.’
The two archangels scowled at the readout. “Something needs to be done about him,” Michael said.
Gabriel raised his eyebrows in a doubtful look. “Soooo… you saying you wanna be the one to confront him about it?”
Michael sat quietly for a moment, glancing aside nervously as she recalled the image of Aziraphale’s gleeful, hellfire-engulfed features.
“… on second thought, we have better things to do,” she murmured.
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! …
13:26:49: [Aziraphale] Created one (1) grain of rice. 13:26:50: [Aziraphale] Created one (1) grain of rice. 13:26:51: [Aziraphale] Created one (1) grain of rice. 13:26:52: [Aziraphale] Created one (1) grain of rice. 13:26:53: [Aziraphale] Created one (1) grain of rice. 13:26:54: [Aziraphale] Created one (1) grain of rice. …
Wholesome #BoysWillBeBoys stories!
I love genuinely innocent “boys will be boys.” Just saw a guy come out of a frat house to poke a pair of jeans they’d left outside - they were frozen solid, and as soon as he confirmed that, like twenty more boys came rushing out of the house going “YOOOOOOOOOO”
