Willow Is Not A Bad Mother. Yeah, Saving Whitley Shouldn’t Be Weiss’s Responsibility. But If You

Willow is not a bad mother. Yeah, saving Whitley shouldn’t be Weiss’s responsibility. But if you think Willow doesn’t love her kids or isn’t trying her best—then congratulations, you’ve never dealt with this kind of abuse. 

You’re lucky.

This is exactly what it’s like.

Willow protected her kids every way she knows how while also being beaten down mentally, emotionally, and possibly physically. Meanwhile, the kids she’s protecting resent her for not doing more—”at least I’m trying to do something about it”—and Willow resents herself too, which is why she responds to that line by chugging vodka straight from the bottle

So yeah, again, saving Whitley shouldn’t be Weiss or Winter’s responsibility—but that is JACQUES’ fault, not Willow’s. Jacques shot her in the leg, okay? She can’t carry her kid off the battlefield no matter how much she wants to. And that is not her fault. 

There are a lot of REAL Willows out there in the world who have no fucking clue how to get their kids out of the hole their partner has dug under them, let alone themselves, and that is always, 100%, the abuser’s fault.

I’m just… salty about the Willow hate. This is the most accurate depiction of abuse I’ve personally seen in fiction. I just need y’all to understand Willow is 100% a victim too, okay? She’s my mom. She’s trying her best. 

Sincerely, Winter

Tips for writing those gala scenes, from someone who goes to them occasionally:

Generally you unbutton and re-button a suit coat when you sit down and stand up.

You’re supposed to hold wine or champagne glasses by the stem to avoid warming up the liquid inside. A character out of their depth might hold the glass around the sides instead.

When rich/important people forget your name and they’re drunk, they usually just tell you that they don’t remember or completely skip over any opportunity to use your name so they don’t look silly.

A good way to indicate you don’t want to shake someone’s hand at an event is to hold a drink in your right hand (and if you’re a woman, a purse in the other so you definitely can’t shift the glass to another hand and then shake)

Americans who still kiss cheeks as a welcome generally don’t press lips to cheeks, it’s more of a touch of cheek to cheek or even a hover (these days, mostly to avoid smudging a woman’s makeup)

The distinctions between dress codes (black tie, cocktail, etc) are very intricate but obvious to those who know how to look. If you wear a short skirt to a black tie event for example, people would clock that instantly even if the dress itself was very formal. Same thing goes for certain articles of men’s clothing.

Open bars / cash bars at events usually carry limited options. They’re meant to serve lots of people very quickly, so nobody is getting a cosmo or a Manhattan etc.

Members of the press generally aren’t allowed to freely circulate at nicer galas/events without a very good reason. When they do, they need to identify themselves before talking with someone.

Still one of my favorite posts on tumblr honestly

honestly tho that scene in the incredibles where mr. incredible sees the names of all the old super heroes that used to be his friends / that he knew from Back in the Day and how every one of them has been killed by syndrome is such a chilling scene for so many reasons 

like for one, everyone he knew is dead at this point and has been killed on the same island he’s at now and two, its heartbreaking bc that means that almost every hero wanted to try out being a hero again despite the laws against it and wanted to try and help someone out and relive their glory days, only to be straight up murdered like fuck that scene is just so fuckin intense

You’re never too old to collect figures.

You’re never too old to be in a fandom.

You’re never too old to play video games.

You’re never too old to listen to music.

You’re never too old to enjoy things.
