#Avengers Redemption

[mischievous-thunder]

What does one do when one doesn't get their happy ending? What if one doesn't even get the chance to right the wrong before they're doomed?

Wade and Logan changed the course of the entire narrative when they became the makers of their own fate.

Wade took the first step when he was hell-bent on looking for a Logan to help him. But he was destined to find The Logan. The connection both of them felt was immediate. Logan took their relationship to the next level when he sealed the deal by moving in with Wade in the end. Both of them got their well deserved redemption when they saved the universe.

We resort to creating a universe in the form of fics to find a reality where our loved ones are together whereas Wade and Logan travelled the multiverse to find their happy ending and healed their broken hearts.

For them, the red string of fate has some yellow in it.

For people who like Avengers 2012 vibes, I highly recommend Leverage and it's revival sequel series Leverage: Redemption.

It's about former criminals seeking redemption by using their skills to right wrongs.

It has a grifter who can con people in real lifebut is terrible on a theater stage; a petite, orphaned gremlin woman of a master thief who legitimately loves vents; a cool, black, tech genius; a hitter with long hair and who constantly says things like a type of gun has a distinctive sound. And a former insurance agent who has a beef against rich people who are abusing power.

It's like Ocean's 11 vibes with vigilantism and heists and they say things like "Let's steal a casino."

They ARE the meddling kids.

Thinking about Abigail crying and begging John not to go after Micah, Charles questioning if revenge is what Arthur would have really wanted for them, Sadie second guessing if going after bounties is the right thing for John because of how much he has at stake, John still making it rain bullets on Micah even after Dutch had shot him first.

Did the revenge really make John feel better, after putting everything he'd worked for on the line? Does he know deep down that it wasn't what Arthur would have wanted? I think about it a lot

they really are touching on the subject of what it means to be an "Avenger" in this chapter... that bloody trail guda leaves as they move forward represents their despair, the exhaustion in their body feels as if carrying weight when they have nothing on them but their own self. guda's journey is a path of blood where they leave a trail behind, a mark of victory, a mark of defeat, a mark that they were there and has moved forward.

but the anger - the flames that dont burn engulf those tracks leave them empty, almost lifeless. numb. but thats the dangerous part. being empty. and so you find something to feel that emptiness. happiness. enjoyment. and so you cant help but lean over to death and destruction as you make your way down the hill to cross over to another destination.

and so for that to be prevented, you need an unwavering will of steel to prevent your body, your mind, your heart from going numb from both the despair and anger that could tear you and those you love apart.

I have this silly idea… lets imagine Loki (Gamora and Nebula too) can be free from Thanos and infinity war doesn’t happen at all.

Thanos influence wilted and died at some point and the universe is free of that ugly wrinkled wet paper tissue of a titan.

Loki’s punishment after the avengers wasn’t staying in a cell at Asgard, instead he was forced to do a sort of “community service” in Midgard.

Meaning: helping the Avengers and however of the team needed his assistance on missions.

He could do magic but restricted, of course. He couldn’t do malicious or destructive magic (nor illusions) at all.

Except at enemies and in that context it was also more controlled.

That didn’t stop him from annoying the team sometimes.

Doing mischief is in his name, a little bit of jokes and games is expected, right? On his own words he does it to “spice things up”

One of those things was making Steve stop talking for a while. Making him partially mute. In a harmless way of course.

(It sounds worse than it actually is)

Loki’s reasoning is that Steve talks and expresses more of what others expect of him than talking his mind. He got used to going through the motions, and being by himself, only caring when other people are in danger/at risk. Once they got to Bucky it was making sure Bucky was okay and comfortable.

He wants Steve to unwind for once in his life. And of course making him a little bit embarrassed. Its fun watching him blush and splutter after all.

For missions and work he can talk perfectly fine. In dire circumstances too. But on a normal Thursday?

Without the weight of the world on their shoulders? That’s fair game to him.

This little trick works this way:

Only some of Steve’s thoughts can be voiced out loud, but they’re completely out of context (of his train of thought) or uttered in the most inconvenient of times as they come (if Steve is screaming inside it will be voiced that way out loud).

Only him (Loki) and Steve can hear all of what the captain is trying to say and communicate that way if Loki is feeling like it. (Loki is not going to invade Steve’s mind more than that, even if its really tempting)

And Loki is so entertained by all of it (the mind of the captain, the endless confusion of the team, the jealousy that some of them feel, the discussions that seem unilateral but are really funny to him and make him laugh out loud) that he started to bring a bag of popcorn and soda everywhere.

Tony: Ok, So… how are you doing cap? Still can’t get a complete sentence yet?

Steve: Im so tired of this, and yes Tony I still can’t talk normally.

Loki: ohhh? My my Captain… Are you still trying to find a way out of it? You can’t. You’ll need to get used to it.

Steve: Fuck you Loki

Tony: LANGUAGE!

Steve: not you Tony. Loki!

Bucky: shut up Tony!!

Steve: i want to talk Loki! Let me talk, this is ridiculous.

Tony: no robocop, YOU shut up!

Loki: No. this is too entertaining, you think i want to end one of the only things that gives me joy? You’re out of luck Steven.

Steve: ughhh, fuck me… I hate you so much sometimes Loki

Bucky and Tony: WHAT?!

I'm thinking about least-carpet's Venn diagram of whether JC ships are about WWX and specifically about mingcheng, and I'm thinking that yes it is about WWX but it's also about NieYao, and I think it could be pretty fun projecting times actually!

So you're a sect leader and you gave preferential treatment to a SIC you trusted really really really a lot and who broke your heart and whom you totally failed to keep in line even after he'd proven how untrustworthy he was. How angry at yourself are you. How angry at someone who made similar yet not identical mistakes as you, and who has the moral backbone of a chocolate éclair.

could be fun hatesex and self-hatesex about JGY and WWX. could turn into less than hatesex after JC is hailed as the hero who saved the jianghu from WWX. could end with JC breaking up because he can't deal with NMJ looking at him less like he's trash because he thinks JC killed WWX.

Some WIPS I seriously need to finish (and some I probably won’t 🥹)

For Molly.

[jasontoddenthusiastt]

Imo Jason is “irredeemable” by default because I don’t see what he needs redemption from.

[caredscared]

comic writers w/ Eddie Brock for some reason: we need to redeem this fucker. he's too popular to be flawed. he should be sane! dont make him menacing! make him repent! make him suffer! remove dark humour! make him boring!

the writing for any other "anti-hero": haha im a dipshit and just offed 1000 ppl lol

maturing is realizing that a large portion of skrunkly characters are Very Much So doomed by the narrative

[justworthlessreblogs]

do you have any more pikario or yukari (or both) headcanons maybe

i still have a few!

rio:

he's a very trusting person originally but after yukari lies to him in episode 16 that trait slowly disappears and he becomes a lot less gullible

ghost/cryptid disbeliever despite being a literal fucking fairy and living around magic all his life

this one is incredibly random but i was rewatching the avengers for the millionth time last night and it occurred to me that if he was into superhero movies he'd be a black widow fan. like i don't think he'd be into superhero movies all that much (his interests lie elsewhere) but if he was i think he'd connect with her backstory a lot. overall he tends to like characters that go through redemption arcs gee i wonder why. during his julio era he would've been the most insufferable loki stan

yukari:

is a prankster! nothing too big or anything that would hurt anyone but she does like messing with others. stuff like switching out the water with sprite. aoi catches her setting a prank up one day but instead of ratting her out asks to join her. they become an absolutely terrifying duo

also ghost denier. now i want an akiyuka buzzfeed unsolved au because i can hear them saying so many of those quotes
