Ed at age 40: What do you MEAN I can't be cuddled by my dads anymore what am I, an adult???
Sokka, chucking his boomerang at Zuko: VIBE CHECK.
From a surgical nurse and certified CPR teacher:
Please pause for 2 minutes and read this:
1. Let’s say it’s 7.25pm and you’re going home (alone of course) after an unusually hard day on the job.
2. You’re really tired, upset and frustrated.
3 Suddenly you start experiencing severe pain in your chest that starts to drag out into your arm and up in to your jaw. You are only about five km from the hospital nearest your home.
4. Unfortunately you don’t know if you’ll be able to make it that far.
5. You have been trained in CPR, but the guy who taught the course did not tell you how to perform it on yourself.
6. HOW TO SURVIVE A HEART ATTACK WHEN ALONE? Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack without help, the person whose heart is beating improperly and who begins to feel faint, has only about 10 seconds left before losing consciousness.
7. However, these victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and very vigorously. A deep breath should be taken before each cough, and the cough must be deep and prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest. A breath and a cough must be repeated about every two seconds without let-up until help arrives, or until the heart is felt to be beating normally again.
8. Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and coughing movements squeeze the heart and keep the blood circulating. The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain normal rhythm. In this way, heart attack victims can get to a hospital.
9. Tell as many other people as possible about this. It could save their lives!!
10. A cardiologist says If everyone who gets this mail kindly sends it to 10 people, you can bet that we’ll save at least one life.
11. Rather than sending jokes, please... contribute by forwarding this mail which can save a person’s life.
12. If this message comes around you... more than once… please don’t get irritated... You should instead, be happy that you have many friends who care about you & keeps reminding you how to deal with a Heart attack.
please take the time and boost this post by reposting it and sending it to those you love because we all need to understand how to quickly deal with heart attacks

Okay but it makes me so fucking mad that we dont acknowledge the fact that rhodey watches as Tony disapears?
You think he doesnt feel that? You think he doesnt worry? You think he doesnt see that punk kid he adopted during his college years and never let go of? Hes known Tony since they were KIDS.
Hes known Tony when his parents died. You think he’d welcome Cap back with open arms, after he held Tony as he cried in his arms, saying “rhodey, I dont-i cant-im 21, ill never be enough-i miss her, I never told them-”
You think that he’d just go “yeah, that’s cool,cap, you helped RUIN my best friend but we’re okay”
And you think that he doesnt see Tony and thinks “I should be there, I should HELP”
Like I dont care if you ship them or not, the fact that we so blatantly disregard how rhodey must be feeling in that scene?
He wants his fucking best friend back. He must be fucking devastated inside, but instead he cracks jokes and does what he can, instead of being torn up with worry, instead of showing it.
The thing I love about rhodey+Tony is the pure level of trust and comfortable aura they have? In age of Ultron, as soon as rhodey shows up, the tone changes entirely. Tony’s cracking jokes, hes happier, hes caring, Hhdhdhrhjrjrururh
And so yes, Steve’s lines are iconic and yes I stan, but at the same time, can we stop pretending that rhodey wouldn’t be doing anything and everything to get his fuckinf best friend back?
He watched him drive off in the desert and come back a different man. You think he doesnt think of those 3 agonizing months as soon as he sees Tony’s gone? You think he doesnt fucking love him?
You think he wasn’t thinking, “what if this is it, what if the last time we talked was the last time, what if hes gone forever?”
God. I couldn’t imagine what Rhodey must be feeling in that scene. But instead he tells jokes, and he does what he can, because that’s what Tony would want him to do.
The Hollow - Mira
Something different! I watched FMAB earlier this year, and have been self-indulgently rewatching my favorite episodes lately. I know, I was HELLA late to the party, @elsie-mcclay convinced me to watch it (thanks for beta-reading by the way, queen) and I fell in love with the characters. More specifically, Roy Mustang and his not so subtle love for Riza, his amusing turned extremely depressing friendship with one Maes Hughes, and his acting as a parental figure to a very short, very outspoken alchemist. The last of these is what I chose to write about. If you like this and want to potentially see more FMA stuff, please tell me what you think, since I’ve never written for these characters before. I hope you enjoy!
In which Ed and Roy are both idiots who will do anything to save someone in danger, especially if that person is someone they care about. And they stop being stubborn long enough to admit that maybe they do care if the other were to die.
Roy sighed, and checked his watch once more. He didn’t know why it surprised him that Fullmetal was late, again.
He had half a mind to go out for a drink and make the kid wait once he did decide to show up. See how the Fullmetal Alchemist liked having his patience tested.
But as a superior officer, Roy knew he couldn’t do something so childish, even if it would be nice to get some payback. Besides, Riza— Lieutenant Hawkeye, that is —would undoubtedly lecture him about responsibility and slacking off… again.
He didn’t really feel up to dealing with that, or the kid’s wrath today.
Luckily, Roy was saved from his boredom and growing irritation at his most determined yet most vexing subordinate by the phone ringing.
He opened his mouth to answer it with a smirk on his lips, which died when he realized that he automatically expected Hughes’ cheery voice to be the one that answered him, gushing about his lovely wife and adorable daughter.
Roy took a deep breath, feeling suddenly as if a heavy weight rested on his lungs. He hoped it would be the Lieutenant on the phone.
No such luck.
“Yes?” Roy said into the receiver, feeling no need for pleasantries anymore.
There was a moment of silence, and Roy heard what sounded like someone trying to catch their breath on the other line. Then—
“Colonel?”
As much as he hated to admit it, the voice of the young alchemist actually did put him in a better mood. He really had gone soft, huh? “Ah, Fullmetal! Finally decided to call in, have you? You’re already over fifteen minutes late, even worse than last—”
“Colonel.”
The Elric brothers interrupted him all the time, but the urgency in the kid’s voice was definitely new. He sounded… scared? When was the last time he’d heard either of them sound like that?
Roy was instantly on alert. “What’s wrong? What happened?”
The kid huffed a short laugh. “You’re gonna hate this,” he muttered. “I know I do. I’m… I think I might need your help.”

There is no such thing as an ‘alpha’ in a wolf pack. An early study that coined the term 'alpha wolf’ had only observed unrelated adult wolves living in captivity. In the wild, wolf packs operate more like human families: there’s no defined sense of rank, parents are in charge until kids grow up and start their own families, younger wolves don’t overthrow the 'alpha’ to become the new leader, and social dominance fights are situational.
