What I adore about Logan in every timeline, in every universe is how much of a pack animal he is.

We see this in Xmen where he immediately bonds with Rogue and becomes protective of her.

We see this in the subsequent Xmen movies where he protects the kids, builds a bond with the other Xmen, and fights for them.

We sees this in the comics where he not only pack bonds with the xmen but also with Laura, Gabby, and even Akihiro. Where he adopts jubilee, and kitty.

We see this in Xmen evolution where he adopts the young xmen and becomes a mentor figure for them.

And we see this in deadpool and wolverine, where he pack bonds immediately to the one person who talks to him without fearing him. He's known Wade for less than a day before he's ready to throw hands with, and for him.

Logan is a pack animal. He's a friend, a dad, a partner, he bonds hard and he bonds fast.

And he tries to deny it in every universe. He fights people and tries to keep them away from him to protect them from him and his past.

But God that man can't help but seek people out. He needs someone around him. Even if he doesn't want to. Especially then.

And then he finally finds people that can stay with him for eternity. (Wade & Laura). He finally finds his eternal family in Deadpool and Wolverine. He finally finds his pack.

unfortunately it has been decided that this is one of the funniest scenes in the show, sorry i don’t make the rules

diego’s hand slowly bringing the knife into frame? peak comedy

luther’s “what the- put the knife away” literally never fails to make me laugh

don’t even get me started on klaus’ damn condoms

it actually means so much to me that tai and shauna seem to hold the most anger towards coach ben. they're the most willing to believe that he burned the cabin down not because they truly think he did it, but because of the way he abandoned them and looked down on them.

tai and shauna were the only ones who took shauna's pregnancy seriously- or at least understood the reality of it. partially because tai was the first to know, she helped shauna with the attempted abortion, she was the first that shauna confided in. they treat the pregnancy with much more gravity than the other characters, because they know how fucking dangerous and terrifying it is for shauna, to give birth in the wilderness with no medical care, no doctors, a rapidly dwindling food supply.

tai and shauna (and nat) are also the ones who struggle the most after eating jackie. tai because her other self took over in that moment, so on some level she has no idea what she's done until afterwards. shauna because they ate jackie, her best friend, the person she loved, hated, and whose death she caused.

for coach ben to look down on them, treat them like uncontrollable monsters who would turn on him and eat him next, to talk as if he's better than them for abstaining... yeah. i can see why tai and shauna would be angry. does he think they wanted this? to be driven to this? does he think they liked it? and the fact that, on some level, they did like it, they dont feel as bad as they probably should.... coach ben, like jackie, is the voice of judgement that they absolutely dont need. what right does he have to judge them?

because, coming back to shauna's pregnancy, coach ben may have had no clue what to do for her, or been able to help in any way, but he was the only adult figure that they had. to him, they didnt listen to him anymore, they didnt see him as an authority figure or value his opinion, but the yellowjackets still care about him, looking to him for guidance and reassurance. theyre still just kids. scared, terrified, unsure kids, one of whom is about to go through an incredibly traumatic birth, so they look to coach for something, anything... and he walks away. to the only room with a real bed, which (in my opinion) he could have offered to shauna during her last few months of pregnancy. instead, ben separates himself from the yellowjackets almost completely. shauna gives birth with her only help being teenagers who have no idea what theyre doing, but at least theyre doing something.

its easy for tai and shauna to hate coach ben. to blame him for the fire. him disappearing right when javi dies and they eat him is obviously no coincidence. and his obvious disgust, his morally superior attitude, the fact that he didnt care enough to even try and help shauna when she was in labour, and now javi's death? why wouldn't he try and kill them? why wouldnt he try and take them all out in one go? they're monsters. thats what he thinks anyway.

i dont believe coach ben set the fire anymore. i dont believe tai did either, but thats an entirely different post. his speech in 3e04 was moving, but it was tai and shauna who really made me feel their anger, their betrayal. he didnt just fail them, he judged them, he abandoned them and then he tried to kill them.

learned several languages including mando'a, spannish, russian, khuzdul, etc. just for my fanfics, checked books out of the library to look up random facts, educate myself on several subjects like the history of Denver just for like one sentence in fanfics.

And the most recent ones are:

Is there oatmeal in Star wars?

Is there glue in star wars?

This is why I read the reddit comments

Heyo! So not sure how youd even write this from a story perspective— maybe headcanons r easier idk— but! What would Current SB/Ben say to his younger self (your choice on age) about his future? Whether it be from an introspective place, him talking fondly about his future family, etc — all you boo👍 Hope youre doing well!

Hey there! Thanks, I'm doing well and hope you are too!

Strictly speaking on story/fic requests, I'm only doing full fic requests on my Patreon, but occasionally I'll be able to do a short imagine/HC when something strikes me. For example, you pose a really interesting question. I think the answer would depend on Soldier Boy/Ben's level of growth/character development.

Like, if we're talking about Break Me Down version of Ben, for example, I've actually thought about this a bit before! If he had the opportunity to talk to his younger self, let's say in the 80s (shortly before Nicaragua):

What (BMD) Soldier Boy/Ben Would Say to His Younger Self

"You just think you've got it all figured out, don't you?" Ben says, crossing his arms at his younger counterpart.

"What? I'm at the top of my game?" Soldier Boy says. He smokes a joint, blowing up smoke casually and arrogantly.

Ben chuckles. "That's what you think."

Soldier Boy frowns. "The whole fucking world worships me. Whatever I want, I get. Women, picture deals, a fucking statue in front of Vought tower-- Hell, I've got hit after hit record on the top of the charts, for fuck's sake."

Ben just shakes his head. His rueful smile irks the other guy, but not as much as what he says next.

"And you're bored," Ben says. "You've got it all... But nothing's ever good enough, right?"

Soldier Boy's lips purse, but he doesn't have an answer. Not one he's willing to voice. Ben nods in understanding.

"It's all right. One day you'll find it," he says.

Soldier Boy frowns, his brows furrowing. "What do you mean, find it?"

Ben doesn't want to give away the punchline. This guy hasn't earned it yet. Not the way Ben knows he'll need to. Otherwise, he'll never understand what it all meant. What all those years struggling alone in the dark, and what betrayal, loneliness, and pain were worth.

No, he won't give it all away. But he'll give him this, at least.

"It's the simplest thing in the world," Ben says. "You're gonna meet a woman."

Granted, the way he met you was anything but simple. The way Ben sees it now, though, it is simple.

Soldier Boy's frown fades, his face turning wry. "A woman, huh? Think I've got plenty of those. Any time, any place, any way I want."

"Not this one," Ben says. He can't help a small, reserved smile when he thinks of you. "Matter of fact, she's going to test your last ever-fucking nerve, every day of your life...but you're not gonna be the same."

Ben thinks about the life he's built with you. He thinks about his daughter, Lila, and his son on the way. Ben pictures the house in his mind--Christmases, birthdays, wedding anniversaries, along with missions gone awry, and the fights and arguments that reverberated on those walls. Moments where his temper got the best of him, or your stubbornness made you dig your heels in. All of it is worth it.

"Then one day, you're going to wake up and realize that you've got everything you need," Ben says.

Soldier Boy seems to take that in. He's still skeptical, but maybe secretly interested in the bright future lying in wait behind his older self's eyes, even though he doesn't want to show it.

"Yeah? And then what?" Soldier Boy asks, in a tone that scoffs, but Ben sees that he's serious too, and he's listening. He knows it as well as he knows himself.

Ben levels a pointed finger at him.

"All you need to do, is protect it."

AN: It's like the old Spiderman meme where he's pointing at himself. lol 💚

i demand an IT fandom revival i cant live like this

[astrobbie]

“this show is making me like the men more” when the shows literally been setting this up from ep1. they literally eat people did you think they WERENT going to lose their morals more and more as the show progresses? did you think the hunting scene in season 2 was the worst it got and not the beginning of their descent into violence and horror? i feel like i’ve entered some alternate universe because half the complaints about season 3 make no sense to me and i just think a lot of you need to stop watching the show and just stick to reading fanfic or something because a lot of the complaints just sound like you dont like the season bc its not going the way you made up in your head

One of the hills I will die on; Logan and Wade are autism & ADHD coded and a classic example of neurodivergent friends finding each other.

(Also Logan is Bisexual and Wade is Pansexual. And I will not be accepting criticism on that one.)

[epicfirestormer]

What I love about Hellboy and Abe Sapien's dynamic in the comics is that, if you came into this blind, you'd expect Abe to be the voice of reason or the straight man to Hellboy's impulsive and hotheaded personality. But no, Abe is more often than not the crazy one. Hellboy would deal with fighting evil monsters and bad guys by just sighing and getting it over with, while Abe is going rabid over tearing the creature apart when he does get into a fight. Hellboy acts like it's a 9-to-5 job and will reasonably talk things out with a guy that had nearly killed him before, Abe acts like a madman in a slaughter house and his first instinct is to shoot first kill second and ask third. They're both insane, but on completely different levels.

[emily-in-crisis]

it's kinda crazy to think that in season 1 imogen heaney was just an overexcited giggly 15 year old girl with a (supposed) crush on a boy and maybe came on a little too strong at times and the majority of the fandom decided she was worthy of the guillotine. misogyny is wild

the onion bought infowars. I repeat, the onion bought infowars

[laurrelise]

something that i’d like to talk about is the scene where old five first sees himself, except in his thirteen-year old body.

this is a man who’s spent decades alone because of the mistake he made at the age of thirteen.

this is a man who found and presumably buried his dead siblings, the only people in the world he lived for, because of the mistake he made at the age of thirteen.

this is a man who was forced to kill other innocent men, women, and children in order to save the lives of everyone on the planet, because of the mistake he made at the age of thirteen.

he acts like he hates himself more than anything, and he makes it very clear that that’s exactly how he feels.

could you imagine making the worst decision of your life, a decision that could cause the end of all life and humanity, and then after decades of having to live with the regret, to see your young self again. the villain of your life and the creator of your misery.

but you were so young. you were so young and so stupid and you didn’t understand yourself enough to realize that you’d made a mistake until it was too late to turn back. and you really don’t want to hate yourself.

but you do.

can you imagine the pure rage? the hint of repressed depression? the unbridled wrath and the overwhelming sense of grief that old five must have felt in the moment he saw himself again?

i really like that the iwtv tv show only hires actors who are incapable of being normal about their characters
