This scene is actually hilarious when you deep the fact that in the midst of a full out attack on Wakanda, Attuma took the time to find Okoye to antagonise her đ He really said âLemme just see what my lil warrior bae is up to đâ And whatâs sending me is Okoye definitely planned his entire funeral in her head in those mere seconds of tense eye contact between them lmaooo
Okoye: *in turmoil trying to save Wakandan civilians*
Attuma: *standing on top of a Wakandan building searching aggressively* *spots her*
Attuma: đđ«”đœđ„
Okoye: đđ đĄđ€ŹđȘ
the funniest part of mockingjay was when Gale was like, âomg Katniss, Finnick totally has a crush on you,â and the poor guy was loosing his mind being away from Annie
I think itâs kind of funny how coin (who obviously wanted peeta rescued from the arena instead of katniss) doesnât see what an absolute nightmare he would be for her to deal with if she left katniss in that arena
Like she thinks katniss was hard to deal with/manipulate/control after she left peeta behind? Peeta wouldâve had her whole district eating out to the palm of his hand before she even realized who she was dealing with. She thought katniss was too single minded/stubborn about her focus on saving peeta over the revolution itself? He would have been her absolute nightmare (and I adore him for it)
Katniss is such an unreliable narrator. She says "Then something unexpected happens. At least, I don't expect it because I don't think of District 12 as a place that cares about me" girl you deliver strawberries to the Mayor, you hunt and trade for the district, when you fell at Prim being chosen someone caught you, when you went to Prim people parted for you, when you volunteered EVERYONE stopped. Idk how to tell you but I think you're a pillar of the community.
*slides an idea under your door*
Captain Marvel accidentaly convincing people that he's a widowers
*runs away*
Captain Marvel is a widower. It makes sense. He wears a ring(ref to my Accessories post), he always gets sad on a certain day, and anytime romance is offered he immediately shies away from it. Now, the JL or civilians donât know this but the ring thing is just a memento to his father, he just gets sad on that day cause itâs their death day, and he thinks romance is icky. But Billyâs not going to tell them any of that. Not because he doesnât want to. No, he just doesnât even know they think heâs a widower. Even if Billy did know though, after the amount of certain things heâs said, he doesnât think he could convince him that isnât a widower.
Marvel and Junior: *arguing*
Junior: âYeah, well boo-hoo youâre motherless!â
Supes: *nearby, gasps because he thinks Junior just reminded his father of his dead mother*
Marvel: âWha- Youâre motherless too?!â
Supes: *double gasps because he thinks Marvel just confirmed his wife was dead because everyone thinks Junior is his kid*
He told everyone that the Widower Marvel theory was true and now confirmed.

On the anniversary of their parentsâ deaths, Maryâs feeling a little upset.
Marvel: âOh, Iâm sorry Mary. I⊠know today is tough especially considering itâs the anniversary of that day.â
Mary: *tearing up slightly but trying to hide it*
Marvel: *kneels down looking like a proper father* âBut, I want you to know that if you feel upset, you can always come to me. We can mourn together. Thatâs better than doing it alone, isnât it?
Mary: *getting flashbacks from how their dad would also kneel down to comfort them which only makes her wanna cry more* âYeah, okay.â
Wondy: *just happened to see this happening and thinks this is both simultaneously adorable and heartbreaking*

Junior and Marvel were in a rec room looking at a dress theyâd placed on a table. They were arguing which one of them should wear it because they needed one of them needed to shapeshift into a girl for something stupid they planned to do later.
Marvel and Junior: *still arguing*
Flash: *walked in and sees the dress* âWhoâs dress is that?â
Marvel: *startles and is trying to come up with an excuse for why a grown man and a somewhat little boy have a dress* âThis uhâŠâ
Junior: *wants to stir up some drama* âHis wife. This dress belonged to his wife.â
Marvel: âYeah, my wife- WAIT MY WHAT?â
Junior: âMe and Maryâs mom remember? The woman you married?â *does a little winky wink to convey that he wants him to go along with it*
Marvel: *gives him the most scandalized look*
Flash: *thinks the scandal is just him being upset that Junior is sharing something about their civilian lives* âOh I see⊠uh my bad for intruding on your mourningâŠ?â
Marvel and Junior: *in unison* âWhat?â
She answers his question. He asks her if sheâll ever fall inlove with him. Itâs an insult to her. Oh, if you ask this, then can you remove the tree where you carved our bed? No you canât. You can never do that, unless you took a knife and carved it out of its hold. Then why do you ask me such a stupid question? Can you tell Iâm going insane with this song????
I want to point out how the final fight in Epic is not in song 38 but song 40.
How after Odysseus became "the monster" he then, was the last boss to fight
And Penelope fights him.
Because she fights for her husband, for the man beyond the trauma, for the man WITH the trauma, for the man she will always love and will wait forever if necessary.
She makes him angry, he gets furious and Penelope is the only character so far who matches that fury and tames it.
And Penelope wins.
She defeats the "monster".
And all it's left... it's just a man. Her man.
Thinking about how Odysseus carved the wedding bed out of an olive tree, which means the bed is rooted in the ground.
Thinking about the line âYou donât think I know my own palace? I built it!â.
Thinking about the fact that Odysseus built his entire palace around that olive tree, his and Penelopeâs wedding bed, a symbol of their love.
Odysseusâ world is literally built around his love for Penelope.
âŠ..iâm not crying, i just have an odypen in my eye.
I, uh, went a bit overboard.
Also, it's been what, 2 years? And I still cant draw Six' hood well lmao.
Ever wonder why Ekko always kept close to Jinx during the battle? Like, how he was always at her side within seconds that he realised she's in danger?
It's cause of Jinx's signature move "You think I'm dying? No bitch WE dying"
Yeah, Jinx's solution to whenever she's backed into a corner during a fight is to blow herself up, and to hopefully take both of them out.
I love how everyone was awwing at "look at how protective Ekko is of Jinx" when we saw him immediately appear the second she was in danger.
Yeah well ahskkkkshdjk THERE'S A VERY GOOD REASON FOR THAT!
I require CC and Marilyn to be like Odysseus and Penelope in would you fall in love with me again.
I need CC having the type of sentiment to make a bed from the tree he met Marilyn at. To carve the brick of their home from the mountain Marilyn grew up on.
I require Marilyn to not care what atrocities CC commited because she knows he is a good man, that is her husband, the father of her children and the man she loves.
Like a slight AU where CC got stuck in the caves with some of the men sent to kill him and Marilyn but Marilyn got out. Marilyn is so sure that CC is dead but three or four days later he appears, battered and bruised, blood staining his once crisp white shirt and his tan slacks, but none of it is his.
CC who was always the "do good and good will follow" fellow now has blood on his hands, he has killed and would do it again to get back to his wife.
But he is scared, Marilyn always told him how much she loved how kind and gentle he was despite his formidable stature, and now he can only hope she will forgive him for the pain he cause other people.
And Marilyn, who has believed for the last four days that her beautiful caring husband is dead, watches as her brick wall of a man falls to his knees with water welling in his eyes, telling her how he killed the people who were after them, how he regrets nothing, would do it again if it meant she'd be alright, and worries that she will be angry. He is just so sorry.
Marilyn's delicate, sweet, lug is alive and back in her arms, that's all that matters she tells him.
CC does kill again that night, he bashes a man's face in with the butt of his own gun before the man can shoot at Marilyn and Mary. He dies reaching towards Marilyn, telling her how much he loves her and hearing the same back.
They will meet again in one afterlife or another, they will be together in every possibility. Marilyn will not allow her husband to be alone any longer than necessary. He will be in her arms again, and they will wait, hopefully for a long time for their children.
Hiccstrid is crazy because it's Hiccup "would kill for her" Haddock and Astrid "would die for him" Hofferson, not the other way round.
Yeah in any other case it's Hiccup 'would die for a cause/person' and Astrid 'would kill for cause/person' but when it comes to each other? Hiccup has canonically been ready to kill for Astrid, as in blast-a-man-to-bits with Toothless and let a nearly extinct dragon be slaughtered. And whenever Hiccup is in danger and Astrid is there she's the one who pushes him out of the way, endangering herself. Like with the Death Song, the Light Fury, girl was ready to sacrifice herself for the young chief.
I just think it's cool how much these two love each other they're willing to go farther than they ever would in any other occasion.
Thinking about the design decisions that led to Amy Rose being a bruiser character.
The first appearance of Amy's hammer was in Sonic the Fighters, a fighting game. This was her first playable appearance, and her first time fighting. And there you can see the first decision. She was likely given the hammer because the designers thought it would be unfair to make the girl character fight barehanded against the largely male cast. So she was given a weapon: an appropriately cartoony hammer. This remained her main method of self defense in Sonic Adventure.
Note how in these earlier depictions, the hammer looks more like a toy than an actual weapon. It's not meant to actually be threatening, it's just something to put her on equal grounds with the other characters, since the perception at the time was that a girl character wouldn't be able to fight as well as the male characters.
As we move into more modern and less cartoony depictions of the Sonic universe however, the piko hammer got redesigned. They didn't change its size at all, but maybe someone on staff thought the toy look was too silly, because they made it look more metallic and heavy as the years went on.
But this does change things. Because taken with its new look and realistic weight... that is a freakishly big hammer, and utilizing it the way Amy does would require incredible strength. So, in the modern day, her mastery of the hammer is treated more as a sign of her inherent power, rather than a bandaid for a power differential like a smaller weapon would be. While often still referred to as a "speed" type character, she's regularly depicted as a character whose physical strength rivals Knuckles or even Shadow. As we move later in the franchise, character descriptions regularly call her "powerful."
It's interesting how this shift happened, when really nothing about Amy's depicted abilities has changed. What changed is how realistically the Sonic universe is depicted, as it moved away from slapstick comedy. In that new context, the girl with the big hammer suddenly becomes a lot more intimidating.
Lorelei is literally that bitch.
She Knew SHE fucking KNEW that Lisbon and Jane were in love but couldn't acknowledge it and she absolutely knew what buttons to push and she tap danced all over them just to piss Jane off when she was caught.
Lisbon was the perfect bait. You can say things about Jane, but he won't care. Needle Lisbon or make fun of her? Jane's got it out for you.
Hyde defo whispers things in Jackieâs ear 24/7 (could range from some cute and innocent things to some freaky shit). He just seems like a whisperer type to me so his friends wonât call him whipped or make fun of them
OK but honestly, Hyde saying
when last season he explains to Jackie he uses that phrase so no one knows what he means
also further contextualizes Jackieâs excitement at those words
combined with the fact that he has an armour of ambiguity that he teaches her
and that is his signature
that he gets over in season 5 because sheâs important enough for him to be decisive and direct with his emotions?
Sorry, Iâm just falling in love with this ship again.
Can we appreciate that when Parker hears from Hardison that Tara backstabbed the team- her first instinct was to throw her off the roof?
Like this is Parker. The thief who everyone claims is crazy. The thief that can't process emotions and needs help to play pretend. This thief who hasn't really known what family is like- and her first instinct when the people she cares about is being threatened- she wants to get rid of the threat.
Parker cares. She cares about Eliot. She cares about Nate. She cares about Hardison. Nobody gets to take away her family.
Nobody.
Ignore how the timeline probably doesnât make any sense at all
Recently, Damian has heard discussion among some other League of Assassins members about their newest prisoner of interest, the kidnapped Batson boy.
Additionally, Damian knows that he is the Son of the Bat.
The conclusion is obvious.
Their new captive clearly must be his brother (or, well, at least his half brother).
So he goes to see him, and that assumption is only reinforced. Their appearances are remarkably similar, and the other boy had already demonstrated his competence by escaping his cell on his own.
Which he guessed means heâs obligated to help the other boy (his brother!) escape.
âŠ
Billy has no idea what to make of his new⊠ally? When heâd first crossed paths with the other boy, Billy had internally swore about his bad luck. The assassin boy was going to raise the alarm, and heâd be forced to improvise and quite possibly risk reveal his Captain Marvel powers just to make it out alive.
But then the other boyâDamian, heâd introduced himself asâhad shattered those explanations by declaring that he knew they were brothers because they were both sons of Batman, and that it was his brotherly duty to help him escape.
And while the connection thing is just entirely false on Billyâs side of things (âBatsonâ is just his last name, not an epithet!), he wasnât going to look a gift horse in the mouth. For the time being, heâll play along and make use of the help his âbrotherâ offered.
Hopefully that lie wonât come back to bite him later. Or if it does, that itâll be when heâs in a slightly less precarious position.
This is based off @elvesandlanternsâs report of this post.
When Flash, told Bruce and literally everyone else about the photo, Bruce immediately wanted to see it. Why? Because if he could see it, he might be able to identify who this Freddy character is. If he identifies this Freddy, he could identify Marvelâs civilian counterpart. So, that was just what he did, or rather made Tim do.
Robin!Tim: âHey, Junior?â
Junior: âYeah?â
Robin!Tim: âCan I see that photo of Marvel and your dad?â
Junior: âUh⊠Why? Also, again, Freddyâs not my dad.â
Robin!Tim: âItâs pretty obvious he is, man.â
Junior: âNo, itâs not. You also still havenât answered why.â
Robin!Tim: âI wanna see it because Iâm curious about baby Marvel and baby Freddy.â
Junior: âNeither of them are babies though?â
Robin!Tim: âIâll give you twenty bucks if I can see the photo.â
Junior: âDeal.â *fishes it out of his pocket dimension and hands it to him before taking the twenty bucks from Tim*
It was just a quick look for whatever reason, right? Thats why Freddy thought nothing of it, especially when offered the twenty. They could have groceries for months with this bill! They might even be able to get a treat for themselves with it. Billyâs birthday was coming up, maybe he could get him a cake? Or some fast food? Or a present? Maybe the Bulletman action figure he saw Billy eyeing in a store window? He wanted to get him something, he knew that.
Anyways, Tim guiltily snapped a couple pictures, feeling bad about going behind his friends back, and then sent them to Bruce a few minutes after handing the photo back to Junior.
Bruce immediately got to work, trying to match a names to the faces. He ended up having to switch to paper files and break into the city hall in Fawcett because neither boy would come up in an online database. Thatâs how he found Frederick Christopher Freeman and William Joseph Batson. Born in 1932 and 1933 respectively. Both Orphans. Both were likely on the streets after being orphaned. No known death date which suggests they could be alive, though itâs unlikely considering theyâd be in their nineties and the asbestos in this town wouldâve gotten to them already.
Though, considering that Marvel is still alive and young, this could paint a not so nice picture. Could Fredrick have grown old and died while Marvel had stayed young? Is that why he had the look of horror when he was mentioned? Is Fredrick actually Juniorâs father? They certainly do look similar. It would also make sense as to why Cap was raising Junior. If this was his friendâs kid, he probably wouldnât want him on the streets. But then how does Junior have Marvelâs powers? Can Marvel give powers willy-nilly? So many questions yet no answers.
Thankfully, he came across a news channel clip of Marvel saying that his powers were genetic. Billy made that up on the spot, not that Bruce would know.
Okay? So they are related, but how? Does that mean Junior is Marvel and Fredrickâs child? Lord, was Flash actually right about Fredrick and Marvel dating at some point? Wait, but if Junior is actually their kid, how was he born? Surrogacy? William- itâs strange to call the Captain that- has a sister, but she was pronounced dead. As for Fredrick, he had a brother but thatâs it. They couldâve gotten someone random maybe? But then how would the kid look like Fredrick but have the Captainâs powers, was it magic? Can you do that? Can you have a magic pregnancy?? Bruce is falling down the rabbit hole and he canât stop himself.
Eventually, he just went up to the pair and asked them directly.
Junior and Marvel: *talking*
Batman: âCaptain? Could I ask you something?
Marvel: âOf course! What is it?â
Batman: âIâŠâ *looks at Freddy for like three seconds before looking back to Marvel*
Marvel: *smiling*
Batman: âIs Junior yours and Fredrick Freemanâs biological son?â
Bruce has never heard a louder silence in his life. A clueless confusion could slowly be seen crossing Marvelâs face.
Marvel: âWha-â
Junior: âYup.â *nods his head*
Marvel: *looks over to him with the same horrified expression*
Batman: âNow, Marvel, thereâs no need to look like that.â *reaches up to put and hand on Marvelâs shoulder* âHere at the Justice League we accept members of any race, religion, color, or sexual orientation.â
With that Batman left Billy and Freddy there. Billyâs jaw was already dropped, and as soon as Batman was out of sight, Freddyâs jaw dropped too.
LaterâŠ
Billy: âI canât believe you said that!â
Freddy: âDude, would you have rather wanted to explain that weâre two kids who got powers and decided to fight crime?â
Billy: ââŠNo.â
Freddy: âThatâs what I thought. Now here, take this.â *hands Billy a Bulletman action figure*
Billy: âWhat?!â *jaw drops* âFreddy whereâd you get this?!â
Freddy: âI bought it, duh.â
Billy: âThis is awesome!â *hugs the life out of Freddy*
Btw for this to work, somehow no one knows about the time bubble.
Really stupid au where when they were younger, Kakashi and Obito shared an accidental kiss a lot like Sasuke and Naruto. (Kakashi commits to his mask shortly after but will never not insist it's unrelated)
Years later and Kakashi, trying to cheer up Naruto and Sasuke ab their own embaressing accidental first kiss, shares his own story
Then, years later when Obito reveals himself on the battlefield, instead of going "woah, another Uchiha!?" when he hears his name, Naruto can't help but point and shout OH MY GOD UR THE GUY WHO KISSED SENSEI!!!!!!!!
Instant dead silence. (Obito wants to die)
Sakura, who never heard the story ab how it was a one time accidental kiss: "omg... sensei's childhood boyfriend went evil on him... this is so fucked up"
Obito is VIOLENTLY thrown off by this turn of events (and also hasn't actually thought ab it in years oh my god that did happen didn't it)
Kakashi, seeing how badly it threw him off, and also the kind of person who plays hard into throwing people off and generally fucking w them to gain an edge, seeing Sakura mumbling ab lovers to enemies and just kinda goes "Yeah Obito I can't believe you'd do this to me I thought we had smthn special."
"Yeah a rivalry????"
"So I was only ever a way for u to get stronger,, figures u were using me,,,"
[Confused Obito car crash noises]
Sakura yells smthn ab him being a deadbeat and how Kakashi can do so much better and Naruto is instantly shouting in agreement as Sasuke stands there like "hn." Which is basically the same thing for him
Kakashi just starts straight up lying actually
"What about all those picnics we went on... watching the sun set over konoha..."
"Are you talking about when Minato said we weren't allowed to come back inside till we stopped arguing and ate on opposite ends of the roof bc we couldn't even look at eachother without yelling???"
"It was so romantic."
Obito, starting to actually doubt himself, "was that a date????"
(It was not.)
"You died in my arms..."
"I died under a rock"
"We literally got eye married" (not a thing, he just made this up 3 seconds ago)
"We got WHAT" (no one can prove him wrong tho bc no surviving Uchiha knows that much ab their clans marriage traditions)
"Oh my god sensei's husband is a deadbeat" - sakura, horrified (and maybe a little delighted)
"Figures." -Sasuke, who's been in proximity w Obito for some time now and absoloutley believes every word ab this topic Kakashi is saying
"Woah. This is almost as bad as the fact he murdered my parents when I was a baby dattebayo" - Naruto who's priorities are NOT what they should be
"Ok. I wouldn't go that far." - Sasuke, who's priorities are also fucked but not THAT fucked, oh my god Naruto
"No, no he's right. We should kill him even harder for this" - Sakura, who doesn't actually agree but wants an excuse for more juicy sensei love drama (and also wants to see Obito beaten to death anyways)
