Also, she is more like flavor of the decade than of the week. 

These pictures all look like scenes from a sequel to MYST. (It was a video game in ancient times, kids)

No, they only wish they were.

We only doing TV? The Weeper, in Brief History of Seven Killings and The Tracker in Black Panther/Red Wolf. Both not only gay, but power bottoms.
