Guys. I think about this shot a lot. Seven (7) times a day, minimum.

This is the exact moment Wade realizes that Logan looks at him, like really looks at him. Logan’s eyes have always been reading Wade in every way they can. Annoyed and scowling aside, he tries in earnest to understand who Wade is through his cracked humor and self-depreciation. No matter how angry he is, no matter how confused he is, he has eyes on Wade. When they’re staring at each other from opposite sides of a gun, when they’re sitting across each other in the diner, when they first fight in the Void, when they argue in the Odyssey; each one of these scenes have a moment where Wade is showing his cards and Logan, even through his rage and thirst to hurt, stills himself to listen and learn for as long as he can.

The man has no choice in the matter. Charles left him with the burden of knowing what it is to be loved, even at his most difficult. He’s felt the healing that comes from someone being able to look past his defenses and aggression and have the patience to plant compassion in the spaces of him that need it the most. He hasn’t been able to bring himself to unbury all the good he had before the bad, but it doesn’t stop him from having the guts to be gentle and kind when someone least deserves it. One of his gentlest moments is when he takes Juggernaut’s helmet off Cassandra to save her, and his wish to be the man that Charles thinks he is is what strengthens his ability to comfort the displaced and love-starved child that Nova really is. It is that same hope that allows him to take a chance on Wade. All Logan can do is hear him out and do his best to see the merc for who he truly is. It takes him some time, but from the moment they met in the bar, to joining Wade’s world, Logan’s gaze never wavers; it only changes as he grows to understand Wade more. He is able to look past Deadpool, and see Wade Wilson.

‘Never take your eyes off an enemy’ evolves into looking at a mirror to his own soul. Wade is everything Logan is, and everything Logan isn’t. They are yin and yang down to the very cores of their being, and for Logan, it’s a tough pill to swallow when he realizes just how easy it is for Wade to love. It’s not only consistently thrown in his face with Wade’s repeated reminders of what’s at stake, but Wade showing him the picture of everything he has left forces him to reflect on the walls he’s built around himself and why. He has made so many mistakes, and he can do nothing but examine his own failures as an X-Man and as Logan himself. He is astounded by Wade’s ability to survive with his heart so crudely stapled to his sleeve, and when he looks at that photo, there’s a piece of him that almost wouldn’t mind being a part of the portrait. He thinks of a world where Scott doesn’t have to beg him to put on the suit. Where Jean, Storm, and Beast aren’t dead. Where Charles is still there to remind him everyday that he matters. Maybe a world where Charles could meet Wade and remind him that he matters too. But “when they fix your world” becomes “if they fix your world”, I imagine in the bitterness of that, Logan starts off repulsed by Wade’s openness to overfill his cup and share what overflows. It’s a slow eventuality, but inevitable nonetheless; Logan learns how to let Wade pour into him. His eyes soften and steady towards Wade as their relationship progresses. When being introduced to Althea, it’s obvious that something inside him has calmed, and the soft nod he gives is the only way Logan knows how to say that actually wants to be there. He’s answered Wade’s call and didn’t walk away. Logan can finally look at Wade with a sureness that he’s not going anywhere.

And I think Wade can feel that. Wade is so open because his universe is so small compared to everyone else’s. 9 people. 9 people who make him feel seen, make his heart full, and that make him feel like he belongs somewhere. So when he’s presented with the chance to add #10 to the Polaroid, when someone can actually see him through his vulgarities, through the violence, through his cancerous mutation, it’s more than just surprising when it’s someone like Logan. It’s been a long time since someone’s looked at him like he’s home. No one has looked at him that way since Vanessa. And he probably felt like no one would ever look at him that way ever again. But then here comes Logan, all eyes on him, shredding him to pieces and picking him apart. Wade is the only person he knows in this world, and Wade is the only person in this world that knows him. Logan is forced to confront the idea of being seen and being needed by someone again. Wade comes to him in a crazy, desperate attempt to save the people he loves, and instead he finds one more person to violently stitch into the fabric of his existence.

It’s intense, probably for the both of them, but Wade only knows intensity. Maximum effort. Nothing is off the table, nothing is left behind. Wade’s eyes are as loud as his mouth and bear a burden of their own; a burden of honesty when it comes to conveying his feelings as being one of the only things the Weapon-X experimentation left true and untouched. He sees the truth and they speak the truth. He could see right through Logan from the moment they met. Where Logan could only see a traitor, the Worst Wolverine, Wade saw someone that could teach him how to be a hero. Where Logan could only see himself as the wrong guy for the job, Wade knew this man was the only one capable of saving everyone and everything he loved in this world. He just wasn’t expecting Logan to become part of that world.

Wade is a tractor beam for both the jaded and the gentle, and there is a softness in his eyes that is warm and inviting and penetrating all at the same time. For Wade, it’s not hard to look at Logan and see the tired parts of himself in him. He sees in him the familiar longing for death. He sees a world where he doesn’t have Cable’s time machine to make things right, where Vanessa and Peter are still dead, and he’s blowing out birthday candles alone. Logan is a mirror in his own right; a reflection of not only his failures, but his fears as well. The fear that there may be a day where his luck runs out, and being crazy isn’t enough to save his world.

Crazy is what Wade does best, and the two of them have more than enough instances where “your crazy matches my crazy”. But it’s not hard to see that the way Logan looks at Wade during those moments morphs from a sharpened hostility to a warm familiarity. Though the context of this last scene is Logan fulfilling his duty as a wingman, it is the very second Wade realizes that the other man’s gaze has lost its vitriol and conviction has taken its place. It’s the moment Wade figures out that Logan is serious about wanting to stay, serious about learning how to live in his universe, and serious about his change of heart towards him. It’s a Logan that has accepted his twin flame, and is comforted by the thought that he has someone now that can not only take everything he can give and more, but can bite back just as hard. It’s no secret that Wade holds a space for Logan, but he’s never been concerned with whether or not Logan has done the same. So the moment he’s met with a gaze that is as sure and true as Logan’s is, Wade knows there’s not only room for him to bare all, but now there’s someone that won’t shield their eyes and look away when he does.

I'm only at the 6th episode of season 1 of Cable Girls, but I hope for some polyamory ship. Like Carlota, Sara and Miguel. And Francisco, Alba and Carlos ? I mean idk how it'll end for these two ship, but I wish they'll be real (even though I think Miguel isn't gonna be part of the relationship lmao)

[shakizu]

Why aren't there any fics about Welcome to Eden on ao3 ? (I know the answers but still)

I wrote some, but English isn't my first language so it's really not good, can't anyone write some ? 😂😭

Oh, and if anyone has writing prompts about some of Welcome to Eden's characters, I would love to write it ! (I'm struggling to find inspiration about them but I want to write fanfic sm xD)

[shakizu]

Okay, I've to be honest, maybe Bienvenidos a Edén's plot didn't make a lot of sense (how were they so stupid at the beginning ? Great question) and maybe that some actors aren't very good (Africá for example... Sometimes others, but really her), but the rest of the characters ? (Except Erick, he's boring) They are interesting and very good. I'm only staying for them.

[shakizu]

AHHH!! NO wonder people are homophobic!!! This shit scary af!!!!

[shakizu]

today’s brainrot

not really canon but just silly bc i am eepy

[shakizu]

I made more😭👎

[shakizu]

Sooo, guess we’re all still obsessed with Top Gun huh? Couldn’t help drawing these two in my classic art style (uniforms have no significance other than being reminiscent of their helmets)

Also, on a complete side note, I’m writing a sereshaw fic, it’s not a period!AU, it’s just really sad, but it might be my favorite thing I ever wrote so if you wanna check it out I’ll just leave it here 💛

[shakizu]

i forgot to add these before?

I hate love triangles but I love 1899 so I've decided that nothing was happening between Eyk and Maura and nothing will make me change my mind. Plus Daniel and Maura are absolutely perfect together. (And I think that some people know the actor from somewhere else because a lot of persons like him even though he's not that good (I find him annoying with all of his questions and everything, but maybe it's just me))

[shakizu]

Reasons everyone should watch 1899:

a good old fashioned brain fuck brought to you by the creators of Dark

Daniel Solace

a bunch of people who all speak different languages run around for 8 hours unable to communicate and yelling at each other that they can’t understand what other people are saying

messy-haired Aneurin Barnard running around looking tortured and being pretty

beautiful cinematography

Andreas (DILF) Pietschmann

honestly just an amazing cast all around

Olek just being the most sweet, helpful, lovely person ever

also a good deal of badassery

pretty people being sad and confused

loml Daniel Solance, please he just needs a hug and a kiss

Olek and Ling Yi

just lots of brain fuckery and confusion and pining tbh

I’m still confused and there’s so many ways to interpret everything and I need more

just trust me on this one, please watch it

As you've probably heard, "1899" has been cancelled on Jan 2nd, 2023.

It's tragic, but there is a chance something can be done about it.

Please sign this petition to save "1899"!

Bo&Jantje put their souls to this project, and so did all of the cast and crew. It's a shame that Netflix have chosen to cancel it, not seeing the show what it is, a wonderful mind-twisting cinematographic masterpiece with a strong scenario.

Let's support their work. They deserve better. Every member of the cast and crew deserve better. And we, as the fans, deserve to get some answers, to enjoy another season or two of this amazing TV series.

Please sign the petition. We have to save it.
