#consequences to the grave

[kenonade]

this post is for the three people out there who remember consequences to the grave

[varibean]

Ok but when they parallel this scene with Viktor as machine herald looking at jayce’s broken human body and realizing that he too would do anything in his power to save him, what then?

[ghost-bxrd]

Prompt:

Instead of coming back as a crime lord, Jason pretends to be a vengeful revenant, haunting Gotham criminals and the batfamily.

This has… consequences.

Price: Look, I know we're both still upset about Mexico, but we have to play nice with Shadow while they're on Farah's side.

Nik: Tsk. Fine.

Price: Thank you. Ah, Commander Graves.

Graves: Captain. Who's this?

Nik: I could pick you up and throw you four and a half meters easily.

Graves:

Price:

Nik: Six meters if you weren't in full kit.

Graves: re...really...?

Price: Nikolai. A word. NOW.

hello i am just not over the fact that rio left her there to bury their son by herself. just left her there. i know she had to take nicky, i know that the walk of death can't be short, but why didn't she come back. she had all night. rio had all night. why didn't she come back. agatha is stubborn and will hold a grudge, a death of a child can tear apart the strongest of relationships, but she could've helped dig the grave. she could have held her. she could have been there.

thinking about the way ghost doesn't hesitate to start killing shadows when graves betrays them but soap only takes one hostage

you can almost hear the voice in his head telling him it doesn't have to be this way; they can still talk it out

"i'm calling shepherd"

his first instinct when confronted with betrayal is to play it by the books; to go up the chain and sort it out democratically. that goes against everything we've seen him do; he’s quick to drop his enemies and bucks authority at every chance except for the one time he's confronted with the barrels of his allies' guns

he wants a peaceful resolution; for the first time we've ever seen, he doesn't want violence to be the answer

there has to be another fix, a solution that doesn't end with him killing the same men he's been working with; his friends

nothing's happened yet

it doesn't have to go this way

but ghost has been betrayed before. he knows the way this ends; either with him six feet under or his enemy

he doesn't hesitate

it's only when they knock alejandro out that soap shoots; when they spill the first blood and cross a line they can never come back from

only when ghost orders him to run and he has to cover his retreat

and somewhere along the line, between civilians’ screams and taunting voices, between his shaking breath and ghost steady in his ear, that naivety is stripped away; his trust turned to teeth that he uses to sink into throats of men he'd have given his life for

"be careful who you trust, sergeant; people you know can hurt you the most"

he's learned the price of trust

just like ghost did

but unlike ghost, he has someone to guide him through the aftermath

"good advice, It"

THE JOY...

I like to think that Andrew doesn't actually get incest guilt or shame but instead he gets really really anxious and guilty that he doesn't

Like whenever they are done and he just looks at his side and sees his happy covered in bruises and marks sister, he knows he should feel bad, or nasty, or gross, or anything

But he just doesn't, and it's that anomaly that really gets to him

This morning, police officers arrived and began to physically remove students from the university grounds. A police spokesman, Robert Szumiata, said that the “rector asked us to unblock the traffic routes”.

The autonomy of universities is protected by law, which states that police can only enter campus in cases of immediate danger to people's lives or health or upon the rector's request.

Alojzy Nowak, the rector, refused to negotiate: he refused to let students into the building, fearing that 'they would start occupying the negotiation room'. He didn't come out to meet the students outside either, despite the intervention of MPs (Members of Parliament), reluctantly sent by students to investigate the situation (they weren't too happy to be represented by politicians and not listened to by the rector directly), whom he had agreed to let in.

The protesters were ID'd by the police and got charged with "disturbing the domestic peace", even though they were protesting outside the university's buildings.

The students demand:

A public, resolute, and unequivocal condemnation of Israel's attack on the Gaza Strip and the occupation of Palestine. Recognition of the right to return for forcibly displaced Palestinians, to statehood, and to equality.

Severing cooperation with Israeli academic institutions and other organizations and companies that are linked to the occupation of Palestine and the ongoing genocide in the Gaza Strip, as well as boycotting Israeli institutions at the national and international level until the end of the occupation of Palestine."

@hawkogurl I'll write the post(s) eventually but if I were to combine "No Way Home if it was better written" and "how to not blow your Norman Osborn Redemption," the crux of it would be the Missed Opportunity.

Picking up the Raimi villains and putting them in another universe is probably not what I would have done first, but if you're a writer who must redeem these villains by dropping them into the MCU, then you actually DO have fertile ground for a Norman Osborn Redemption of a slightly more realistic and narratively satisfying variety.

Who is Norman Osborn? A wealthy, affluent man who has gone mad with power. Now you've taken him and dropped in a world where he has no name, no money, no home, no company, no family. He has none of the things that give him his power, except his own performance-enhanced body because you take that with you everywhere. Then he is informed that he is going to die, that he has already been dead as a consequence of the destructive path he had put himself on, and he WILL die again if sent back to where he came from. The only way to avoid this fate is if something changes, and changes drastically.

Basically, they had Norman Osborn's Christmas Carol moment set up right there and they didn't use it properly, they went with the whole cure thing instead. They painted Norman more as an unwilling victim of the Goblin, rather than someone who did this to himself and must now choose if he is going to act differently in the face of such a sobering realization. Given how wrapped up he had gotten in being the Goblin, the certainty of his own destruction might have been the one thing that could snap him out of it.

Me hearing people talk about the Titan submersible as if this wasn’t something that could be avoided and how it’s the price of innovation for the advancement of science
