Fall
Tumblr media
Just a random Earth & Sky scene written for ‘who knows why’ reasons. Nothing special and only short, but fic, nonetheless.
A little bit of Virgil whump. I may have accidentally dropped him off a mountain, but it is not about that. As to what it is about, I’m not entirely sure :D
I hope you enjoy this little bit.
-o-o-o-
Scott caught him as he fell.
He knew it was Scott because it was Scott. No one had arms like that, no one else had a rocket strapped to his back so he could slow Virgil’s descent, and no one quite swore like that either.
Of course, he had every right to swear because catching Virgil also meant catching the exo-suit attached to him, and that was heavy.
Virgil knew it was heavy because the broken strut on his right leg was the reason he was falling, as was its impact on his leg.
“I’ve got you.” It was rough and gasped out and partly a lie because they were still falling, just slower.
Virgil raised his arm to fire a grapple but his HUD was little more than fuzz. Or it could be his head, he wasn’t entirely sure. He had hit a few rocks on the way down.
He could hear Scott’s breathing and the strain on his jetpack and just wished he could help, but then they were landing.
Hard.
There was more swearing and Virgil’s world went sideways, completely disappearing for a moment as he rolled.
Ow.
Goddamned ow.
His right leg was definitely sporting some damage.
But as he came to a stop, flat on his back, staring up at the grey sky that had brought half the mountain down on the village in the first place, he lay there dazed, knowing he should be getting up and checking on his brother.
But fuzz.
“Virgil!”
And yes, there was Scott. Worry in his eyes again. He really did have far too much to worry about.
Virgil was aware somewhere beyond the fuzz that he was the one causing the worry and it was wrong, just wrong. He was the one who protected Scott from worry. He was the one who made sure everything was ready, everything was as it should be. Virgil stopped his brother worrying because his brother knew he could count on Virgil.
But not today.
Scott was running a mediscanner over him, its blue light flickering in his eyes as if his brother’s gaze was manifesting and gathering the information he needed.
“Thunderbird Five? Virgil is down. Lacerated leg, blood loss, concussion. I’m on evac. Update Gordon and Alan.”
“FAB.” John’s voice echoed and Virgil found reassurance in it.
If Virgil was unable to alleviate Scott’s worries, John could do it. Johnny with his musical voice and genius smarts. Always there at a moment’s call.
Scott was trying to get Virgil out of his exo-suit.
Blinking and trying to force sense into his head, Virgil tried to pull his arms free to help.
“Hey, hey, Virgil. You keep still. I’ve got you. You hear me?”
Virgil’s HUD was still full of interference, but he managed to focus on Scott’s earnest eyes.
He had no voice to answer.
“You are flying first class today, little brother.” A poke at his wrist and Thunderbird One rose up behind Scott, her roar determined.
First class?
Virgil grunted.
“What? No appreciation?” The quip was genuine, but his brother’s voice was rough.
Gentle hands worked over Virgil’s body, unfastening his baldric, placing his tools aside. A hiss of air as Scott carefully removed Virgil’s helmet, supporting his neck. Gloved hands brushing his cheek as he tried to follow them with his eyes.
“Virgil? Virgil, look at me.”
He blinked. The air smelled of earth, dirt and rock. He could hear nothing other than the roar of Thunderbird.
And his brother’s voice.
“Virgil?” Piercing blue eyes. “I’m going to transfer you to a hoverstretcher. It’s going to hurt.” One of those gloved hands brushed his cheek again. “I’ll be quick.”
Another blink.
And then he was moving. The world spun as Scott caught him again and again, his arms around him, reassuring words…
A soft surface dipped smoothly beneath him and he let out a breath as all that hurt settled into a background roar.
His jaw ached.
“You with me, little brother?”
He managed to gasp out a grunt.
A hand landed gently in his hair. “Evacuating you to Auckland. You stay with me, okay?”
His blink was slow.
“I said stay with me, Virgil. One will have us there in minutes. Just hang on.”
Scott was worried again.
Damn.
“F…AB.”
His hair was messed up as that hand moved to his shoulder.
The world moved again and he was swallowed by Thunderbird One, his big brother personified by rocket engines.
Her roar leapt up and engulfed him.
And with Scott at the helm, they flew.

You know, it would be amazing if Hollywood learned the right lesson from the success of Nimona. Something like "Hey, maybe don't throw out a nearly done movie as a tax write off" or "people want queer stories" or even "don't be afraid to take some storytelling risks and be original" but you just know they're going to come away with some absolutely batshit takeaway like, "next time delete all the evidence and burn it to the ground so the gays can't make us look bad!"

not me casually leafing through some screencaps and randomly realizing that the bartender in catfa also happens to be pre-serum steve's body double, thus making this shot:
Tumblr media
the perfect rendition of what steve's before/after pics would have looked like side by side (and steve's leaning over a little, so he's actually slightly taller than that)
and it truly sinking in how fucking nuts it must have been for bucky to see THAT when steve found him lying on that table

are. are you telling me that if the romanced mage warden dies and alistair is king, he deadass stares greagoir down over her dead body and grants the circle of ferelden its autonomy after ordering it rebuilt somewhere safer. first you have to deliberately leave him behind so he won't die for you and then he does that for you once you're gone, even when you're broken up??? absolute and literal king behaviour of the highest order????? the actions speak louder than words of it all??????? I think I hauve covid

Let the the people of Palestine know you have their back and that there are more people on their side than their oppressors.
Nothing's more punk than helping a people survive their attempted extermination by a fascist government.
Tell em not today motherfucker by donating to a family.

the lovers, reversed
(aka I'm still freaking out about Jou)
#art#ride kamens#i am about to go off on wild speculation so excuse me in advance#I HAVEN'T PLAYED THE EVENT YET so this could all be just absolutely nothing but i gotta get it out#(still debating if i wanna save the event for after i finish part 2 or not...)#this is my last chance to throw wacky theories out there okay#i've just. been thinking a lot about the riders the characters are based on and how they relate to their different classes#like the choices seemed SO random when they were first revealed but they do mostly make sense when you think about it#to the point where i actually do feel like i should've been able to call ooo for ambition. damnit.#however i did always feel like jou was a bit of an outlier and now i'm wondering if that's gonna be like...a thing#idk man just the fact that he's gonna have a special double card and bond henshin with taiten is nuts to me#especially since we're clearly on the verge of SOMETHING happening with soun and uryuu#what does it mean. WHAT DOES IT MEAN#what does this mean for the future of tower emblem#and it hasn't escaped me that there is no class associated with evolution (YET)#and thinking about who jou is based on i'm just like#(waves hands) YOU KNOW?!#(plus i'm still like WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR RUI AND HAYATE but that's a separate thing)#i'm gonna try and take my time and not rush through part 2 but i also am SO impatient#i gotta knooooow#given the way my predictions tend to go though i'm either 100% accidentally right about the dumbest thing#or jou is fine but leon fucking dies or something and i'm gonna throw my phone into a lake#HAVE FUN GUYS I GUESS

People in the comments of the Assassin's Creed: Shadows trailer becoming armchair historians trying to explain why Yasuke shouldn't be a protagonist actually are hilarious. Like besties this is a franchise where people can control eagles with their minds and a good 5% of the population are descended from evil psychic aliens. I THINK we can expand on a story of Japan's only-recorded African koshō without it jumping the shark.
