Racism and misogynoir are so apparent in fandom, especially when it comes to shipping because why is it when a white male, sometimes female but I see it more with the former, character is on screen with a love interest, particularly woc, especially if they're black, and even with all the emotional scenes or just moments where they look at one another in ways different from the rest, it's met with "No, they aren't dating/the show is not going to put them together" but let the other love interest be white as well and suddenly it all makes sense? Heck, the examples I mentioned above don't even have to exist between the latter for some to STILL go and believe this rhetoric (eg. some Jace and Helaena shippers because, even if these two only interacted with a dance but yet we see Baela console Jace, after he seeks her out, apparently it's to far fetched to believe that Jacela could be a thing?!)

Sometimes it could be a headcanon that, largely, would make sense (and oftentimes was birth due to lack of respect that the poc characters could have been given by the writers *cough* TVD *cough*), and yet you'd still have people dismissing it left and right and spewing hate. At a HEADCANON! And I'm not saying that just because the other person in the ship is poc that you have to ship them, I'm not, but it's very apparent to many poc fans in fandom that unless the characters are swapping spit and doing the nasty, the possibility of them being viewed in any romantic lens feels too much of stretch even though their white counterparts don't have to jump through the same loops.

I've been saying. It really does make sense that Silver is still obsessed with Daniel in season 6 because Daniel using his own Quicksilver method on his ass must have been the sexiest thing that ever happened to him🤷

hiii quick question what do you mean erik's heart EXPLODED when he tried to work together with storm??? how did this happen???? WHAT DID THEY DO

HIIII QUICK ANSWER and a severe need for correction on my end: i got my info horribly mangled SPOILERS storm did not explode his heart

during the AXE (Avengers/X-Men/Eternals) Judgement Day story, in X-Men Red #5-7 erik has his heart ripped out by uranos and has to exhaust his magnetism to keep his blood flowing

[X-Men Red (2022) #5]

[X-Men Red (2022) #6]

because As We Know electricity affects magnetism, storm jumpstarts erik's powers and keeps him going for a lil longer until they've dealt with the threat at hand

[X-Men Red (2022) #6]

[X-Men Red (2022) #6]

he'll die after this tho Evidently not from an exploded heart by storm (who, ironically, was trying to keep him alive with her electricity). he dies from the inability to keep his blood flowing anymore. because his heart was ripped out earlier and he has a gaping hole in his chest VJELKEAKL

[X-Men Red (2022) #7)

ANYWAY thank you for the opportunity to correct myself: erik's heart did not explode from storm overcharging him and i have to go fist fight my brother for giving me the wrong info

it's nearing midnight and once again the loudspeaker in my brain is just running "i should have said i love you too and hugged him" on an endlessly repeating loop.

I think people overestimate how feminist team black is. If someone brings up how Baela should be the heir to Driftmark, it's always "she would've been Queen if not for the Greens!", ignoring that 1, she would be Queen consort, not a Queen in her own right, and 2 she has a legitimate claim in her own right to Driftmark. Team Black's goal is to crown Rhaenyra, but Rhaenyra becoming Queen isn't a win for feminism because it does nothing to dismantle the rest of the patriarchal system that exists in Westeros. From what we've gotten so far, it reads that Rhaenyra wants to be the exception and not the rule. Rhaenyra has made a lot of bad political decisions, which means she can't acknowledge Baela's claim because it would weaken her own claim (blatantly admitting her eldest sons are illegitimate would not end well for her to say the least). So she betrothes Jace and Luke to Baela and Rhaena to kind of atone for that, like as a consolation prize Baela will be Queen and Rhaena will be lady of Driftmark, neither of them would hold either title in their own right. It's good matches because the kids like each other and will treat each other well, but it's not a feminist win or a feministic liberation. It's usurpation, usurpation that takes place because Rhaenyra has to do damage control after having illegitimate children and after a serious of bad political decisions (both hers and her fathers, Viserys is the arbiter of this entire mess). To me, Rhaenyra is very reminiscent of Mary Queen of Scots, I can see a lot of elements drawn from Mary's history in Rhaenyra's story and character, down to their sons eventually taking the crown they failed to claim/keep.

HELP maybe this is influenced by how I'm writing this, or maybe it was supposed to be gleaned from canon and I just. Haven't fully thought about it til now. Haven't Deeply analyzed it beyond the blaring alarm bells that go off when reading this. But. Alfonse's,

Straight into.

This isn't him doubling down. This is him BACKTRACKING. This is him going, "oh fuck I think maybe I came on a little too strong maybe I was a bit too vulnerable and that's really scary. How do I fix this" and he's running through all the dialogue options in his head like Okay. Play it Cool. Keep it Casual. Proclaim your undying loyalty and devotion to your Trusted Partner (person he just told in the beginning of this conversation that he didn't intend to become friends with) by making yourself a blade and shield for them. NAILED IT 👍

thing in doctor who that absolutely destroys me: whenever some character is talking about a war or losing a loved one and says something to the doctor along the lines of "how could YOU understand?" or "you'd never understand, doctor" and then it flips to a shot of the doctor just looking so. sad and knowing. rips me apart every time it's just excellent

Brutus by the Buttress is a c!Karl song. Specifically Manberg and Exile era but it can also apply to his character as a whole.

chapter 256 fueling my ailette/hestio(/tes) delusions, thank you for the food!!!!!

[madqueenalanna]

okay i'm doing a taz balance relisten and i know griffin didn't have so much planned out at the first arc but in retrospective it's SOOOO good. i'm most of the way through "gerblins" btw

taako being the only one perceptive enough to notice the skeleton outside the vault and taking a moment before telling his comrades about it. merle trying to grasp the umbrella and being thrown backwards "as if it has rejected you". taako being able to claim it. merle sensing that it contains Every school of magic within in (such an impossible-sounding feat!) bc it was crafted by such a powerful arcanist. the skeleton looking up at taako when he takes the umbrella, as if to give consent, before crumbling into dust

it's just. knowing that was lup's body, knowing lup is in the umbrella, in retrospect it just fits so nicely into the way their rolls went. it called out to taako, and taako answered, bc he didn't know it but that was his twin in there, his other half, the person he loves most in the world who was stolen from him

Same venue. Same-ish crowd. Opposing seasons. Contrasting vibes.
