Thank you for the apology. I appreciate it. On review, I think what got lost in translation was how I was thinking about nuclear warfare would turn out. My primary source was what happened in the American Cold War, where neither the U.S. nor USSR were willing to deploy nuclear weapons at risk of decimating the human population. I made the assumption that elves in their sense of superiority would think humans are too stupid/impulsive to hold themselves back as such. Therefore, the Council would give them the tech with the assumption that humans would eradicate themselves. Does that make a little more sense? As you can tell, sometimes it makes more sense in my head and less so out loud...
Do you have a source for the scientist thing? Because from what I've read, one of the scientists was an Austrian Jew, so I want to figure this out.
Shannon did not think it through when she said elves gave humans technology to build atomic bombs. Why? Because the Nazis... YES THE GOD DAMN NAZIS were the first people to start developing it. meaning the elves gave the Nazi's the tools to start developing it willingly
I dont tend to read WIPs for this reason, but when I do it's never surrender
I was scanning through AO3 and wondered about fic updates (with no pressure on the writers who haven't abandoned their babies lol) and what period of time (to a reader) means the fic is likely not returning from hiatus/the grave.
The categories are the same for men, but the numbers are adjusted to accommodate the taller heights of men./j
let's start a tag game :D

I have to say: thank you so much for giving such an elaborate response. I learned so much, and I really appreciate you taking the time to walk me through it.
I do understand how scary it is to stand up for what's right behind enemy lines, but Lise is right: if it is only the victims worrying about it, nothing will be fixed. Reading through the sources, I could argue that he was not explicitly a Nazi, but he was incredibly complacent, the ass. Which I find incredibly aggravating. I mean, sure, he tried to protest, but when that didnt work he just??? rolled over????? It all felt like a half effort, you know? Which is incredibly frustrating. Like, grow a spine. Stand for what you claim to believe in, Otto.
His efforts post-war are what really upsets me. Like, the threat is gone and you dismiss the effect Nazism had on science? You undermine your colleague and friend? You sweep it under the rug? What the heck? This isn't just passive; it's cruel. It's erasing history, and people's suffering, and oh my gosh I'm going to cry because I can't imagine being Lise and finding out about this after everything she did to fight back.
And finally, after, what, 6 reblogs? I finally understand the concern. I think the idea that elves helped progress Nazi atrocities could really tear the Council down (which would be SO interesting to see), but I think this will be a detail that does not affect anything. Maybe it would break down the elves' sense of superiority? But yeah, I think it was just mentioned to prove a point. I dont know what it means for Shannon specifically, but what an educational experience it birthed.
Again, thank you so much. You have such an intelligence about you, and I am glad to have experienced it. I learned so much from you, and I appreciate you spending the time to dispense your knowledge. From the bottom of my heart, thank you!

Guys please what's a pampám. All the definition I'm getting is that it's an insult.

Peter post NWH uses fake names for like… everyone he meets. and everyone knows they’re fake. He’s not smooth about it. he has to be reminded of his own “name” a few times each time he keeps a friend around.
So it’s natural, when Peter (as peter, not as spider-man!) bumps into Deadpool, and deadpool asks him his name… he blurts out any name. “Sam…son” Peter says. and it obviously isn’t his. he visibly looks confused, and changes the name slightly two minutes into the interaction. (deadpool asks his name again. “Samuel” Peter responds)
Deadpool makes the OBVIOUS jump to the conclusion that the kid is, somehow, on the run. and Deadpool trusts the kids decisions, after hanging out with him for a minute. He figures, if “Sam” is on the run from the law, Deadpool would make sure the law lost that fight.
He decides to start making sure “Sam” is safe, in his day to day life. He finds out that “sam” is spider-man, and is DELIGHTED to go in patrol together.
And when the spell gets reversed, Tony Stark comes looking for Peter. and Peter looks terrified to see him.
And deadpool decides this is his time to shine, because OBVIOUSLY the law (aka stark) has tracked down “sam”. and “sam” looks scared. and Stark looks determined.
And deadpool isn’t letting his new friend go with Stark without putting up a fight, no matter WHAT bullshit stories Stark comes up with about magic.
really helpful technique ^ once you know how to divide by halves and thirds it makes drawing evenly spaced things in perspective waaay easier:
Ohhhhhhh my gosh this is stunning! Holy crap! It has so much detail and your people drawing skills are incredible! Ahhhhhhhh! I love it! ❤️
for those who know me, you know that I am a big fan of greek mythology, so when the epic saga by Jorege Rivera-Herrans came out I couldn't help but fall madly in love with it, his music accompanied and inspired me while I was working, and now that this long journey is about to end I couldn't help but leave a tribute to thank him for all the work he has done. he couldn't have left us a better christmas present under the tree! thanks again for everything.
ps: I already know that with the last song I will cry like a fountain!!
