Unpopular opinion, but I kind of wish Disney would focus a little more on other characters from the classic Disney universe (Mouseverse, Duckverse, Dogverse) and not just the Sensational Six characters (Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy, Pluto and Goofy) plus Chip and Dale and Pete. By this I mean Scrooge, Horace, Clarabelle, Oswald, Huey, Dewey and Louie, Gyro, Ludwig, Grandma Duck, Fethry, Gus, Gladstone, Ortensia, Mad Doctor, Beagle Boys, Magica, Glomgold, Rockerduck, Sylvester Shyster, Phantom Blot, Darkwing Duck, Jose Carioca, Panchito Pistoles, Aracuan Bird, April, May and June, Gosalyn, Morty and Ferdie Fieldmouse, Chief O'Hara, Detective Casey, Scuttle, Mortimer, Figaro the Cat, Max Goof, Neighbor Jones, Brigitta MacBridge and others characters.
By this I mean with regards to the latest Disney animation shows "A Whole New Sound", Hot Ones and these What If Marvel comics. Like you can't make superheroes and super villains out of these characters I mentioned?! Scrooge as Professor X, Glomgold as Magneto or Magica as Red Widow? It seems to me that Disney (I mean the American official one, not the European one for sure) ignores these characters and thinks they don't exist. Really disappointing in my opinion.
Feel free to reblog this and comment if you agree or disagree with this.

“Oh shit!” A stack of papers falls to the ground as Daisy’s body bumps right into someone in the middle of the SHIELD headquarters’ hallway.
“I’m so sorry.” The other woman mumbles as she kneels down, starting to gather all the papers from the ground. “I wasn’t looking where I was going.”
“No, it’s my fault,” Daisy picks up the few papers that flew further away.
The woman gives Daisy a small smile as she stands up, now holding all of her papers. She takes a double take, her brows scrunching together. “Aren’t you the Quake?”
“Oh god,” she cringes at the mention of her superhero name, “please call me Daisy. I hate that name.”
“Okay, Daisy. I’m Y/N.” Freeing one of her hands, Y/N reaches it out to shake Daisy’s hand. “It’s nice to meet you.”
It’s not that Daisy doesn’t pay attention to the people working at SHIELD, because she does, she makes sure to be at least polite to everyone (who deserves it), but right now she can’t help but stare at the woman in front of her, taking her in fully. “Uhuh.” She nods, shaking Y/N’s hand softly.
“Okay.” She lets out a small laugh before pulling her hand away from Daisy’s weak grip. “I really have to get going, but I’ll see you around, maybe.” Y/N waits for a couple of seconds before walking away.
“Yeah…” Daisy whispers, her eyes following her until she finally registers reality. “Wait what?” Her eyes widen as a visceral need to get the woman’s number comes over her. She desperately looks around to find the woman, but the sea of people has already hidden her from sight. “Shit.”
Daisy has no choice but to continue her way to Coulson, who called for her at least 30 minutes ago.
“Hey, Daisy?” Coulson’s hand waves in front of her face. “Are you listening to me?”
Daisy sighs, coming out of her dreamland as she focused her gaze on Coulson. “No, sorry AC.”
“What’s going on?”
Leaning her head over the back of the couch, Daisy smiles softly as she reminisces what happened not too long ago. “I bumped into someone, a woman, today. I don’t think I’ve seen her around before, because I’d definitely remember her if I had.”
“Someone finally caught your eye?” Coulson has a small grin on his face as he listens to her talk.
“What do you mean finally?” She scoffs, rolling her eyes before going to explaining. “She was so beautiful and nice, so cute, and I was acting so weird around her.” Daisy lays her hand over her face, a small grimace on it. “But I couldn’t help it! I got completely mesmerized by her.”
Though Coulson wanted to tease her at first, his grin turns into a genuine smile. Daisy hasn’t really paid attention to people after everything that happened with Ward and then Lincoln, so he is truly happy for her.
“I didn’t get her number though.” She mumbles. “But her name is Y/N, do you know her?”
At the mention of her name, Coulson’s brows raise. “Y/N? About yay tall, great hair, smiling all the time?” He gestures with his hands, wanting to make sure they’re thinking about the same person.
“Yeah! So you do know her?”
“Ask her number from May. I’m banner from that duty since I apparently don’t know how to judge a person’s vibes well enough.” He says it as if it’s the moat ridiculous thing he has ever heard, but there’s fondness in his tone.
Daisy furrows her brows, now lifting her head up properly to watch Coulson. “You know her well? May too?”
“Mhm.” He smiles, his arms crossed over his chest. “She is our daughter.”
There is a prolonged silence as Daisy tries to wrap her head around the sentence. “Daughter? You-“ she opens and closes her mouth, her wide eyes stuck on Coulson’s grinning face. “I know you two are together, but long enough to have a whole adult daughter?”
“Very few people know.”
“Why wasn’t I one of those people?”
“Security reasons. Don’t worry, none of the people on the team know.” Coulson takes out his phone, informing May that Daisy is now aware of their daughter.
“But-“ Daisy huffs before shaking her head. “Philinda daughter…” she mumbles.
“Please don’t call her that. May might hurt you.” Coulson pats Daisy’s shoulder. “Do you want her number?”
“Yes! Yes, I want her number.”
“Go get it from May-“ Daisy is already on her feet, “she is getting the bus ready.” And Daisy is gone, leaving Coulson to chuckle by himself.

I don’t know why, but I’m feeling oddly nostalgic for the good ole days when “Agents of SHIELD” was still premiering. I mean, today, it has a fairly solid reputation as a sci-fi action superhero show. But if you only started watching after the show ended, you have no idea just how much drama this show created. There’s like…whole arcs of drama with AOS. I actually kinda miss the drama, it was lowkey fun to follow.
Off the top of my head, there was the:
* “1st season is complete garbage, why is this even a thing” arc.
* “Stand With Ward” arc. Just…Grant Ward in general.
* “Jemma has a space boyfriend/the creators ruined Fitzsimmons” arc.
* “10 PM time slot is gonna kill this show” arc.
* “Fandom hates that Fitz has a Nazi Doctor alter ego” arc
* “Is this show even canon after season 5” arc
* “This show wants to be X-Men so bad with the Inhuman persecution” arc
* “Did the show blow its budget? Where are the lights?” arc (subplot: Ghost Rider really ate up the budget, that’s why we could only afford Gabriel Luna for 9 out of 22 episodes)
* “Season 6 was really fucking weird” arc
* “Fuck this show for killing Fitz. Wait, I forgot he’s technically not completely dead” arc.
* “Fuck this show for teasing which main member of the team will die in the S3 finale” arc (side note: the drama from this was milked so much that I remember Marvel actually made a poll in which you got to vote who you think was gonna die. Lincoln won the poll, followed by Fitz.)
* “I hate how the show just forgot that Daisy used to be Skye the hacker. It’s like they completely erased Skye from the canon in favor of the comic character. She doesn’t feel like the same character anymore.” arc (yes, this was an actual complaint I saw from people at the end of season 2/the beginning of season 3)
Ah…good times, good times. Marvel TV show drama nowadays feels much less interesting in my opinion. AOS was a drama goldmine.

Prodigal Daughter of the Milky Way
Tumblr media
Summary: Agent Daisy Johnson is sent to space to find the long-lost Captain Marvel and discovers someone quite different than she had pictured.
Read on Ao3
--------------
Death seemed to follow her. Daisy had outlived her boyfriend, her sister, and many teams lost to the danger of traveling through space. She’d take on a companion or two every once in a while, but they always found what they needed or returned to their families. Though it was heavy with grief, she still visited Earth to see her adoptive father—at least, it was the android version of him, a life-model decoy. Between Daisy’s inhuman lifespan, inherited from her mother, and Phil’s life powered by technology that didn’t decay at the speed of natural organic matter, it was a shared experience, watching everyone they loved die, whether from age or disaster or disease.
Neither was properly immortal, not really, but they had ways of cheating death that their loved ones didn’t.
Now Daisy made a point to get home, from time to time, between using her powers for justice as a Saber agent. The woman in charge of Saber, Monica Rambeau, had a similar lifespan due to her own acquired powers. They both aged, but so slowly, they still looked and felt like they were in their late 30s. Daisy had lost track of the years on Earth, but Monica said they would be in their 90s.
Daisy lived with a lifetime of complex grief, but not like Monica’s. Monica had lost her mother, and she had never known her father, but the one that haunted her was the ambiguous loss of her superhero aunt, Carol Danvers. Daisy had never met the legendary Captain Marvel, but if she ever did, she swore to give her a piece of her mind. Daisy figured she must be the kind of Avenger who thrived on the glory, leaving Monica so many times to enact justice across the universe with not so much as a visit back to Earth, or even the Saber ship in the outer atmosphere. Daisy could just imagine the smirking blonde in the pictures reveling in the applause and idolization of her cosmic-sized incredible powers.
One day, in an officers’ meeting on the Saber ship, Monica said it had been 10 years since she’d seen her aunt. It was time to bring Carol home again. Saber needed her. Carol’s knowledge of the galaxy alone could triple the information Saber had in its databases, and there were missions only she could complete. Daisy could tell the reasons were only the logical part of the story for the official record: Monica needed her aunt too.
Daisy expressed her sympathies to her friend and commander, accepted her assignment folder, and promised to bring good news the next time they saw each other. Daisy would bring Carol back and make her see just how much she was missing while out there alone playing goddess.
—-------------------
Death seemed to follow her. Carol had outlived her closest friend and partner long ago, but since then, the years had taken more and more from her. Not that it mattered. She leaned her head back on the dark wall of her prison cell. Once, she had flown above planets, bringing empires to their knees. Now, the boundaries of her world were a desk, a small bed, three dark walls inhibiting her powers, and a fourth barred with plasma that hummed at a pitch that sapped any remaining hope. Instead of a supersuit, she wore her white ribbed tank top under a navy jumpsuit. She still tied the sleeves around her waist the way she used to with her suit when she was on her ship. All that had been lost too, ages ago when she’d been captured on a planet ruled by a mafia-turned-empire.
She was getting too old for this work anyway. She had lost track of the years stuck in here. Without her powers, she’d resumed aging, noting the fine wrinkles in her reflection. Even if she got out, what would she do if her powers didn’t come back? She would just be an ordinary woman. She’d catch a ride back to Earth, but surely even that old yellow house in Louisiana had been torn down by now. Maybe she’d be turned into some sort of mascot for Shield, or a ghost for Saber to wheel out for new recruits to gawk at as a living history exhibit. No. She loved Monica and Kamala, but they had moved on without her long ago, and her presence would just remind them of all the grief and trauma they had suffered.
Carol realized she still pictured them as they had been the first time their powers had gotten entangled. Kamala was still a teenager back then. Her hope had brought them together. Carol hummed a self-deprecating laugh. Nostalgia was a mind’s trick.
But then they lost Monica for a long time. And she came back as part of another team of superheroes, from another universe, with the help of a woman who wasn’t her mom. Just a parallel version. Who wasn’t Carol’s soulmate. Who had none of the same memories or friendship or love. Just Maria’s same face.
Carol had been called away to help friends on other planets over and over, Kamala had risen within Shield’s ranks, and Monica had inherited her mother’s legacy and Fury had become her surrogate father until he finally passed (for real this time) at an extraordinary age.
None of them were properly immortal, not really. But they realized as the years past that none of them were reaching the outward signs of middle age. The Shield doctors explained that while they could be killed, they were far more resilient to disease and their cells weren’t dying off at the rate an aging woman’s normally would.
But eventually, Carol hadn’t been so lucky. She’d always traveled through space, and a companion or two would come along, but they always found what they needed or went home to their families.
Even Goose had succumbed to time. Carol had laid her to rest on Earth, at the little yellow house, with a headstone declaring her by far the oldest cat who ever lived. Thinking of the disbelief of the engraver brought a bitter smile to Carol’s lips again.
One day (or night, Carol didn’t really know which was which in here), a parade of officials showed up at her cell door, inky black tentacles flowing behind them like sinister capes.
“Captain Carol Danvers,” a uniformed officer addressed, via a universal translator device. She rose from her prison bed and stood at attention. “Gather your belongings.”
The gaggle of officials left, save for three guards and the large shackles they carried. The guards watched as she pocketed what little she had, and as soon as the plasma barrier was off, they tased her until she fell to her knees in agony.
Bound in handcuffs that inhibited her powers and charged wire around her waist and legs, they marched her down the hall and to the prisoner loading dock. They shoved her into the cargo hold of a dark vehicle, sort of a cross between a hovercar and a sketchy van, from the brief view she’d gotten on the way in. They drove, with no regard for bumping Carol into the walls of the van, and stopped suddenly.
The back doors opened to a blinding light, but her eyes didn’t have time to adjust before she was shoved out of the van onto the ground. Then the beating began. Over and over until a whistle-chirp from the ringleader commanded them back. She spit blood and metallic dirt and struggled to sit up without the use of her hands, but all she saw when she did was the backside of the van as it sped away.
She took stock of her surroundings: She was in a field of red flowers. Poppies, a distant memory told her. Here she was, a prisoner of war, bloodied and abandoned in a gorgeous field of poppies. The people on this planet probably had no idea of the symbolism.
“Here, let me help.” A kind voice came from a woman who ran over and stood above her, a blur haloed in the late afternoon sunlight. She pressed a button on a homemade-looking remote and deactivated the wires. The woman pressed another button and the restraints all fell away.
Carol scrambled away from them and stood on shaky legs. “Thank you.”
Now that she had a better view, the woman was humanoid, stern but gorgeous in her uniform of some sort. Wait.
“Is that..? Are you…?” Carol barely dared to hope as she caught sight of the logo on the woman’s uniform.
“Daisy Johnson,” the woman announced. “Agent of Shield and Saber. You’re coming back to Earth with me. Any trouble and I can put these right back on, but I prefer to work without them.”
Carol watched as Agent Johnson kicked the handcuffs on the ground in emphasis, and the last light on them flickered off. The warmth of Carol’s power flooded back in a rush, making her gasp in surprise, but it burned hotter and hotter until she was levitating, radiant from her extremities to her core to her eyes to her hair.
“Captain, power down. That’s an order,” Daisy commanded.
But Carol couldn’t help it. A decade of restrained power unleashed at once and Carol shot up to the stratosphere of this small planet, a shooting star in her own right.
What Carol didn’t expect was that Agent Johnson would join her.
On the ground, Daisy swore under her breath and sent a mental apology to the flowers as she blasted off with her powers, destroying a good patch of the field. She jumped as high as she could and sent a blast of her quake powers at Carol, intending to knock her back down to a restrainable distance.
“Power down!” Daisy commanded again.
“I’m trying!” Carol shouted back. The quake hit her square on, but what would have taken down a normal powered person was just the shake that Carol needed to get control of her power again. In relief, she called, “Thanks!”
Carol floated back down to Earth, landing with grace, and observed Daisy’s impact as she crushed a deeper hole into the field than when she’d taken off.
“What the hell?!” Daisy shouted.
Carol held up a no-longer-glowing hand in a calming gesture and Daisy misinterpreted it as a combative one and stretched her arm out for more blasts.
“No, no, sorry. I didn’t mean to. You just turned off the inhibitor and all my power from the last decade came back. You’re powered too? You know how that feels?”
Daisy relaxed. “Yeah, I know what that’s like. But you still have to come with me.”
Carol nodded. “Home.”
Daisy shrugged and uncloaked her Saber ship with a swipe to her smartwatch. “We’ll see. There’s a very angry Saber commander who wants a word with you. But it seems like you have a better explanation for your absence than she assumed.”
Carol’s sad smile reappeared as they began walking to the ship. “Monica? So she is okay. She’s still…”
“Director? Yeah. No help from you, though.”
Carol’s voice came out hollow and haunted as she corrected Daisy’s assumption: “Alive. I meant alive. It probably says a lot about my work that I have to ask. The longer I’m out here, death tends to beat me to the punch. But yes. That’s true too. Not much I could do in there to help Saber or anyone else.” She nodded to the city with the prison on the horizon as they boarded the ship.
Daisy settled into the pilot seat, and to her surprise, Carol took the seat of the copilot, seeming just as comfortable joining her in the cockpit as she was soaring through the air on her own power.
When they were in the air, Carol broke the silence. “Thank you. For whatever you did back there to get them to release me.”
Daisy shrugged. “Right place, right time. May have shaken things up a bit at the Hall of Justice.” She winked and returned to piloting them out of the planet’s atmosphere.
Daisy set the autopilot when they were in space and beckoned Carol to the back of the ship to sit on a metal countertop. “Your powers seem to have healed your injuries, but you’ve still got some blood…” She opened a first aid kit and dabbed at Carol’s forehead and cheek.
Carol’s heart skipped at Daisy’s beauty so close to her, drawing her in like a magnet. Daisy’s earlier attitude of hostility and professional formality softened as she washed the dirt and blood away.
“You don’t have to tell me what happened,” Daisy said in a new, quiet, gentle tone. “But if you want to, I’m here. I may have judged you without knowing the whole story earlier. Monica thought you were just too busy for us or that you thought you were too important or something took priority.”
Carol shook her head and sighed. “Inside every powerful commander is a little girl left alone on Earth. Monica has a good reason for that assumption. It wouldn’t be the first time.”
“I’ve read your file.” It was a simple statement of fact, no judgment in Daisy’s tone.
Carol hopped off the counter as she continued. “I’ve made some mistakes, and I haven’t really been there for her when she needed me. But this wasn’t one of those times. I would have done anything to be there with her instead of here. Fury always told me that one day there would be a situation I couldn’t punch my way out of. But I couldn’t manipulate or secret agent my way out either. No Shield training or superpowers could have saved me from that hell. It was… I’ve never been scared to die before, not in battle anyway. But that, just losing myself a little more every day…”
Daisy set the cloth aside and soothed her hand down Carol’s shoulder. She brushed a tear off Carol’s cheek that Carol hadn’t even realized was falling. “I’m so sorry. If we would have known, we would have come sooner. When I found out you were there, I was afraid it was too late. It’s no secret that death follows me too. But we won this time. You’re safe now.”
Carol nodded and the emotions she hadn’t been able to let show for a decade spilled out as suddenly as her powers had earlier. Carol wondered if this was part of Daisy’s power when Daisy hugged her and Carol melted into her embrace.
“Sorry, hugger.” Daisy backed away when she realized she was hugging a near-stranger.
“No, no apologies.” Carol loosened her embrace but didn’t let go completely to emphasize her words. “Thank you, that was healing. Is that a superhero thing you do too? The quakes and the hugging?”
Daisy’s lip corner turned up and she pulled away, packing up the first aid kit. “Not officially, but my dad would say so. Oh! You know him! Or well, the old him.”
Carol furrowed her brow.
“Phil Coulson,” Daisy explained. “He’s not really my dad. I mean, he is, but not, like, my birth father. And now he’s an LMD anyway.”
“What’s an LMD? Wait, didn’t Phil Coulson die, like a long time ago with the original Avengers team?”
Daisy laughed for real. “We’ve got to catch you up. Yeah, several times, but the Avengers were only told about the first. That’s a long story, trust me. But he’s still with us, just different. But the same in the ways that count.”
Carol accepted this information. “Okay. Well, I definitely know what it’s like to come back from the dead different than I was before.”
Daisy walked back to the cockpit and Carol followed. They settled in, and when a screen on the console beeped, Daisy brought them out of hyperdrive into ordinary space, revealing a classic breathtaking view. “Never gets old, does it?”
“Wow, there it is,” Carol exhaled at the sight in front of them: a sleek, white space station hovered above the pale blue dot. They approached and Daisy radioed in to announce their arrival and that her mission had been a success. She didn’t say more to the control room, except to let Commander Rambeau know.
“Sooo,” Carol said when Daisy had signed off. “You’re going to help me explain where I was, right?”
Daisy sent her an amused look as she prepared their landing. “You’re still scared of her.”
“I’m not scared of her,” Carol said primly. “I simply want to be clear I wasn’t intentionally away. And it was never because I thought I was too important. It wasn’t like that.”
“Yeah?” Daisy’s soft tone again and open expression left the conversation open.
Carol stared at the green and blue of their home planet out the front window. “I thought for a long time that I had to earn it. Her love. Coming home. I had unfinished business, and even when we reconnected—”
“Literally, from what she told me,” Daisy interjected, referencing their power entanglement.
Carol nodded. “I tried to do the right thing, over and over, but it always came back to haunt me in the end. But I am sorry. And I’m being completely honest when I say I was not in that prison on purpose.”
Daisy laughed with her. “I believe you. And yes, I will help you tell her the real story.”
“Thanks. You know, Agent Johnson…”
“Call me Daisy.”
“Daisy. I think we could work well together. Maybe you could show me around Saber, tell me what everyone’s been up to? Maybe even catch me up on Earth news?”
Daisy flicked a few switches and turned to Carol. “I’ll do better than that. After we check in here, I’ll take you back to Earth myself. It’s been a while since I’ve been home, and Kamala would never forgive me if I didn’t bring you back with me.”
“Understood,” Carol laughed, remembering the teenager who had once covered her room in fanart of her idol, then learned Carol was only an imperfect human and somehow loved her more. Kamala’s family of origin was gone now, too, but they had taught Carol more about love than her own birth family ever had.
Daisy visibly checked out Carol, still in her white tank top, with her navy prison jumpsuit tied around her waist. “Plus, we have to take you shopping.”
Carol grimaced. “I’d appreciate it. And I need pretty much everything.”
“We can handle that.” Daisy initiated the landing sequence and surprised Carol by taking her hand as the space station docking bay welcomed them in automatically. “You’ve been through a lot. But you’ve got me. I mean, all of us. But also, specifically, me. If you want.” Daisy ended her ramble and returned to her final steps of piloting.
They landed with a thunk and Carol caught Daisy’s hand as she was about to stand. “I do. Want you. I mean, your help.”
“Good.” Daisy smiled in satisfaction. “But first, you have a commander to convince.”
—---------------
Monica, of course, was overwhelmed and overjoyed to have Carol home, and even more so when she realized what Carol had been through while she had been away: not being valorized and deified by far-off planets but in prison for helping to free captives and enslaved people. Treason against oppressive galactic powers made Carol’s criminal record practically a book by now. But Monica still insisted that Carol join Saber officially so she could have backup when she needed it and keep a clear comms line open. Carol agreed and was introduced or reintroduced to the other key players of Saber, hearing all about their work to explore space and protect Earth.
Nick Fury had once dubbed Carol “the prodigal daughter of the Milky Way,” and it was never more true than the banquet and celebrations at the Saber station that night. The prodigal daughter returned home.
Daisy was right beside her, too. The lone ranger no more. The one who finally found the missing Captain Marvel, but also someone who would be there for the long years to come as well. Not as a niece or a little sister, but as a friend, peer, and fellow enhanced agent.
And, if their exchanged looks of attraction and little touches of desire were anything to go by, much, much more.

Almost finished with chapter 20 of the fic. But here is some fluffy head canon stuff for you. Mario and the gang go to the movies, how would they react to ...
Tumblr media
Mario: His taste in movies is straightforward—he loves seeing the good guys win and the bad guys get what they deserve. Films like Avengers: Endgame and most superhero movies hit the mark for him. Mario's the type who would cheer out loud in the theater during the big hero moments.
Luigi: Superhero movies aren't really his thing. Luigi finds them too loud and visually overwhelming, and since he hasn't kept up with the Marvel films, following all the characters and plotlines can be confusing. He doesn't dislike them, but he doesn't go out of his way to watch them either.
Peach: Superhero movies aren't really her style either. Like Luigi, she finds them too loud and wishes they had more pink. To her, Mario is the only superhero she needs. However, she makes exceptions for female-led superhero films, as she sees herself as more of a hero than someone who needs rescuing.
Daisy: If it involves punching something, she's all in. Plot? What plot? All that matters to Daisy is that someone’s getting their butt kicked. She's right there with Mario, cheering and hollering during the fight scenes. She doesn’t care who’s fighting, as long as it's a good brawl.
Bowser: He can’t help but sympathize with the villain in superhero films. So what if Thanos snapped a few trillion people out of existence? That’s just smart resource management. Sending an entire army of superheroes, bending time and space, just to take down one guy?... and his entire army? Seems like overkill to him.

I made a claim that there is a trend that won't allow female leads of superhero movies and tv shows to have and end up with a male love interest. So I decided to back that up with some stats. I looked at 60 different lead characters of live-action superhero tv shows and movies from Marvel and DC, sorted them into different categories by gender and type of ending (see the details below the cut).
My findings:
While 95% of male lead superheroes have opposite sex love interests, only 61% of female lead heroes have opposite sex love interests. 62% of male leads end up together with their (female) love interests. Only 22% of female leads end up with their (male) love interest (in fact I can only find 4 examples, as opposed to the 26 male examples. All four are tv shows. I do not know of a female lead superhero movie/movie franchise that ends with the female lead happy together with her male love interest.) In contrast only 5% of male leads have no love interest whatsoever, as opposed to 22% of female leads. Women are also more likely to have their love interest die, with 17% compared to the male 10%.
The categories I used:
A. ends up with their love interest (the lead themselves MAY die. For example Tony Stark does get to marry Pepper and have a child, and then dies. Oliver Queen has a similar situation and then also gets an epilogue together with Felicity in some sort of afterlife) B. Has a love interest but doesn't end up with them (they split up; the love interest ends up with someone else; they are permanently separated) C. The love interest dies D. No canonical love interest E. The series is still ongoing/was cancelled mid-story-- there IS a love interest but it's not clear if they end up together eventually or not (EA-- will probably be together/implied they will; EB-- doesn't seem like they'll be together; E-- I have no clue. I recognize these are open to interpretation, that's why they're classified separately) F. Same Sex love interest
"What do you mean by a "lead"?" They have to be THE main character of their series/movie/franchise. Generally this is the title character. Ensembles were included only if there was a clearly discernible main character (e.g. Peter Quill in GOTG). The only times I counted co-leads was in the cases of Agents of Shield (both Daisy and Coulson), TFATWS (Sam and Bucky), BVS (Clark and Bruce), and Hawkeye (Clint and Kate).

Additional Explanations:
I only included movies/shows from after 2000.
If a character has multiple love interests I categorized them by their most important or final love interest. Being together with someone at the end of the series automatically puts them in the A category. If they don't end up with anyone, I made a judgment about which love interest was most significant and grouped them according to that. For instance--- Daisy Johnson has 3 major love interests (Ward, Lincoln, Sousa) but she is grouped as an A because she ends the series in a relationship with Sousa. Frank Castle I counted as a C because while Karen is maybe a love interest, his wife and her death are the more significant story factor.
I excluded movies/series that are an ensemble without a clear lead such as Marvel's Runaways (or where I didn't know enough about the movie to determine if there was a clear lead, like Suicide Squad). I also left out movies that I just don't know much about (like Deadpool, Elektra, or Watchmen). I left out Cloak and Dagger because I'm incredibly unclear whether they are meant to be future love interests or not. All X-men properties were excluded because determining A) who counts as a lead, B) are the different versions different characters and C) what endings count as canon was just a mess so I decided to skip it.
Why is Fury on this list as an A? He's the lead of Secret Invasion and is married. We might not see his wife again but last we heard they're happily married.
Why did you specify Matt Murdock as (Cox-Netflix)? Right now it's unclear if the main MCU Matt and the Netflix Matt are the same continuity, though it seems like they are not. The Netflix show ends with the suggestion that Matt and Karen will get back together at some point. She-Hulk and what's been seen so far of future Daredevil appearances don't acknowledge Karen.
Why is Peggy a lead/does Peggy really end up with her love interest? She's the lead of Agent Carter though not the lead of a movie. If we're counting Agent Carter separately, she ends that show in a relationship with Daniel. They are different ways to interpret timelines and which shows exist in which timelines etc. but regardless, Peggy is the lead of a show, and ends up married to either Steve or Daniel.
Why are same-sex relationships counted separately? Because I'm specifically looking at a trend regarding putting female characters in relationships with male characters. I contend that it stems from a sexist view that doing so portrays the woman as subordinate or lesser than her male partner, even if she is the main character. This "issue" is side-stepped by putting the lead in a relationship with another woman.
Why isn't Hope Van Dyne (Wasp) a lead even though she's a title character? Because functionally she's still secondary to Scott in the story. When I allowed co-leads they were never each other's love interests. Often the second lead is the love interest of the male lead, which skews the data. Gamora is a similar situation.
Further takeaways: 2 male heroes (Oliver Queen and Bale Batman) have a significant love interest turn out to be evil and betray them, plus an additional 3 (Iron Fist, Daredevil, and sorta Loki) that have some sort of minor betrayal that ends with the love interest on the same side as them. That's 5 or 12% depending on which number you take (I'm more inclined toward the 5%). 2 women have a major love interest turn out to be evil (Daisy Johnson and Sersi) and an additional three have a more minor betrayal with a turn around (Peggy, Courtney, and Kara). Which is 12 or 29%. Plus an additional 2 that were victims of an abusive relationship of some sort with an all out supervillain (41%).
In the above stats, characters were only put in the C (dead love interest) category if that is their main love interest. If they later end up with someone, they are in a different category. If we look at characters who had a love interest die at some point (whether permanently or not) stats are affected thusly: Male characters who have a love interest die: 12 Female characters who have a love interest die: 6 29% of male heroes have a love interest die 33% of female heroes have a love interest die

Hey if you wanna do the thing too, here goes:
❤️🧡🤍🩷💜A WLW ASK MEME❤️🧡🤍🩷💜 List the top 10 ladies you’ve been obsessed with Ever Of All Time! Then send this on to 5 sapphic mutuals 👩‍❤️‍💋‍👩
I VERY MUCH want to do the thing, thank you!!!
This list is not gonna be in a preference order because if I tried to do that I wouldn't ever stop crying. Also I have been documentedly obsessive about IRL women hello Mackenzie Davis I am free on Thursday but to avoid sounding creepy this list will be composed of fictional characters. I burst into tears writing every single entry on here because I am so normal about women lol.
tl;dr here is the list:
Laura Kinney (Marvel Comics)
Princess Amelia "Mia" Mignonette Thermopolis Grimaldi Renaldo (The Princess Diaries)
Elizabeth Swann-Turner King of Pirates (Pirates of the Caribbean)
Myka Bering (Warehouse 13)
Bennett Halverson (Dollhouse)
Daisy "Skye" Johnson (Agents of SHIELD)
Natasha Romanov (Marvel Comics / Marvel Cinematic Universe)
Rogue (X-Men / Marvel Comics)
Gideon Nav (The Locked Tomb series)
Cinderpelt (Warriors)
with honorable mentions to Cameron Howe (Halt and Catch Fire) and Amelia Pond (Doctor Who) because there simply was not enough room!
Laura Kinney (Marvel Comics) - I started reading superhero comics at 16, when a friend at school gave me access to her collection. I have also, since I was too young to articulate it, been drawn to stories about "human weapons," particularly women. (Literally only a couple of years ago it occurred to me that perhaps growing up in fundiegelical culture, which is prone to calling its congregants "warriors for Christ" and using a lot of rhetoric about "God's soldiers," might have had an influence on this preference! I May Be Stupid etc.) Laura Kinney is the female clone of Wolverine, but she has two claws on each hand and a foot claw (yes it’s the kid in Logan, though they changed some stupid shit in that version). I first met her at 16, randomly picking up X-23: Innocence Lost at a Borders one evening and immediately being sucked into the story of a teenager who knows nothing but violence, except for the sole person who sees her as human (Sarah, her surrogate mother). Laura’s comic backstory is fucked-up in a way Marvel really leaned into with their 00s characters - she was forced to slaughter her own mother! then she was a victim of child sex trafficking! then she tried to have a normal life but her past came back to haunt her and she was forced to leave behind everyone she loved to keep them safe! - and I don’t think most of it holds up great, except for Target X which is cute because she and her cousin skip school and steal a car to be normal kids for a day. Anyway! I loved her immediately because in my teen brain, this character was one I could truly read EVERYTHING about, and ever since she has been my daughter. Marjorie Liu wrote an amazing series for her in 2011-12 which had her become Gambit’s little sister and Jubilee’s girlfriend bff, and Liu is to this day the writer I have seen do the most interesting stuff with her. She at one point was using Wolverine as a code name and she got a little sister, Gabby, and that was also good. Anyway, she’s the ur-example of “child weapon learns how to be a person” and also she’s angry and sad and doing her best and I love her the most.
Princess Amelia "Mia" Mignonette Thermopolis Grimaldi Renaldo (The Princess Diaries) - While I very much enjoy and am fond of the films, my Mia Thermopolis is the one in the book series. I first read these at 13, and immediately I recognized Mia as a kindred spirit. Mia in the books is riddled with anxiety and self-doubt, prone to people-pleasing but will push back if she reaches her limits, passionate and loyal to sometimes self-sabotaging degrees, and a connoisseur of pop culture. Every time I open a Princess Diaries book, I feel like I’m hanging out with my best friend, and to me she is. A dream of mine is to make a character that feels as real and dear to readers as Mia feels to me. I am not and never have been great at doing “girl” (hi, butch), but Mia was and is a glimpse into a world that I always felt on the outside of. The books are certainly not perfect but I will never get tired of hanging out with Mia.
Elizabeth Swann-Turner King of Pirates (Pirates of the Caribbean) - I got into these movies kind of late, just before the third one came out, but Pirates was one of the most significant fandoms I have ever been in. It taught me about meta, how to analyze subtext, and how to multiship. Elizabeth was a big part of that, being a cool bitch who got to fight and did not take shit from anyone and was also part of a ship full of Yearning. I used to think I had a crush on Will and that’s why I was so into the ship but…no it was Elizabeth. I wanted to be in Will’s place so I could kiss Elizabeth! She’s smart and capable and passionate, and when you’re 16 that corset line sounds really cool, sorry. And she’s the Pirate King and gets a badass rallying speech. Also she gets to wear a sick pirate coat in At World’s End, which is less questionable for me, a Chinese person, to be wearing, and my mother-in-law made a dream come true and made it for me. As far as I’m concerned she was only stationed on that island for as long as it took for baby Liam to be transportable, and then she put him in a sling and ran around being a fucking awesome pirate king again. (Movie 5 does not exist to me, nor does “Henry,” his name is Liam, thank you for understanding.)
Myka Bering (Warehouse 13) - I actually did NOT start watching this show for the gay content, I started because one of my college roommates/best friends was enjoying it and we both found it deeply charming. I actually thought Claudia was going to be my favorite, but Myka quickly took that spot in my heart. I found her deeply relatable, as someone who tends to keep myself pretty emotionally distant until I trust someone, and as a fellow Bad at Being a Girl sufferer. Myka starts the show wary of everyone, but wanting to do her best, and she slowly begins to let her new team in and start to trust them. One of my favorite Myka things is how well she knows herself and what she wants. And of course there's the HG of it all - her insistence on saving and trusting HG even after she betrayed them the first time is so indicative of how much she wants to believe in people. I really hate what this show did to her by the end, because to me it was devastating to watch this incredible, self-assured woman turn into somebody who apparently had feelings for her self-admitted brother figure and whose entire arc was about that now?? It sucked!! But anyway, that's not what I think of when I think of Myka. I think of her hitting Pete with a snowball and then doing a little hop of joy.
Bennett Halverson (Dollhouse) - Bennett is the reason I met my wife, and she is also played by Summer Glau, who I rarely post about anymore but who is involved in multiple shows that are part of my heart, so Bennett had to go on this list. She was one of the most significant characters that fell into my "angry and sad" women niche, as her whole thing is that she's out for revenge against the girl who broke her heart. AND YES SHE WAS IN LOVE WITH CAROLINE I HAVE RECEIPTS. (god this essay is TWELVE years old?? nobody @ me if it's bad) I love Bennett because she's me, or at least, a really stark portrait of the kind of person I could have become in a similar situation. Bennett feels like an outcast and Caroline seems to be the first person who ever showed her positive attention, to a degree that clearly turned romantic on Bennett's side. She's also devoted to Caroline to a degree that is objectively unhealthy ("You're not pissed because I used you?" "I'm hurt that you wont") and her memories of Caroline leaving her are colored by her misunderstanding of why she did it; Caroline was trying to protect her and take the fall for what happened, but Bennett didn't see it that way at all. I am very...dramatic...in my head and 1000% I would've been like that in a similar situation. It's really good B and I met each other and are obsessed with each other exactly the same amount because we would be terrible partners for anybody else. Anyway, Bennett's fucked up and I love her so much and Bennett/Caroline is why I'm like this now.
Daisy "Skye" Johnson (Agents of SHIELD) - If I were pressed to pick one favorite character, period, it would almost certainly be Daisy. SHIELD and I have had a special relationship from the moment it was first announced; if you look I still have a few posts tagged "s.h.i.e.l.d." and a minor regret of my life is that I was too late to get into the pilot screening at SDCC '13. Anyway, similarly to Myka, Daisy wasn't my immediate pic for favorite, but she quickly became my favorite, especially when I found out Chloe Bennet is also a "Chinese dad white mom" girl like me. I called it from the first character bio that she would be divisive, and she was, because fandom is horrible, but to me she is the best character. I wrote an entire essay about how much it means to me that she's biracial, even if I do not love the Inhumans stuff necessarily. But I remember spending the first season and a half desperately wishing for her to be biracial, and then she was! And she's also so funny and brave and kind and angry and sad and good above all else, she does her best to be a good person. I recognize a lot of my worst tendencies in some of hers; B and I joke that sometimes I will "drive off in emotional van" when I try to shut down and process big shit by myself. But I also relate to her in a lot of positive ways as well: we're both deeply loyal, passionate and hopeful. When they teased someone being killed off in the s3 finale, I literally had a panic attack the morning of the finale at the thought of losing her. When the show finally ended, I was happy she survived and even happier that they had her reconcile with her mom and her surprise sister, and now she and Kora and Danny are hanging out in space and sometimes Daisy goes home to hang out with her girlfriend Jemma. If she never comes back in MCU canon, I'll take that ending for her.
Natasha Romanov (Marvel Comics / Marvel Cinematic Universe) - WELL SPEAKING OF CHARACTERS WHO GOT FUCKED OVER LOL. Never mind the Scarlett Johansson of it all, I love Natasha with a tenacity approaching lunacy. (Not as much as my friend Amy, because Nat is her most special blorbo, but almost that much, I think!) Once again: Natasha is a living weapon character who is emotionally closed off and snarky and also very angry and sad, and also she was one of like 3 women in the MCU in the beginning so of course I became obsessed with her. Her comic counterpart is a little different, of course, but the same notes are there, and once again Marjorie Liu wrote the best arc for her (The Name of the Rose, which deals with themes of motherhood and infertility way better than some films I could name). Some of my love for her is me truly putting my hard-earned fandom analysis skills to work with the pittance of canon information I have to work with, and some of it is the five months I spent writing an AU where she didn't die in Endgame and also she and Laura Barton were polyamorous that whole time. (I did a lot of sobbing in the car when I found out about her death, and I'm resolved to never watch Endgame again.) That fic is my tribute to her, so I guess if you want to know all my feelings, go read it.
Rogue (X-Men / Marvel Comics) - Rogue was the X-Men character I imprinted on when I watched the movies at 16 (hey is that a pattern I see here?) because she was sad and emo and, although I didn't know it at the time, I wanted to kiss it better. I affectionately refer to Anna Paquin Rogue as "Diet Coke Rogue" because she's a very bad interpretation of the character, but also I love her. My favorite version of Rogue is actually in the X-Men: Evolution cartoon, where they made her an angry and sad goth (again: pattern) but with her usual reserve and level of sass. But I love every version of her, and I can't wait to watch the new cartoon because I have been sorely lacking in Rogue lately and I miss her. If I can't pick Laura, Rogue is my favorite X-Men character always and forever. Also, I felt so strongly about her and Gambit that I made a 40-part powerpoint presentation to explain their love story to B, while I was on a road trip with my family. This was one of our notable courtship gifts because she had also imprinted on Diet Coke Rogue and I needed her to understand how epic Rogue and Gambit's relationship is. Someday we will cosplay as them.
Gideon Nav (The Locked Tomb series) - The newest entry, but she made it on here by dint of being, well, so intensely relatable. I too am an awkward butch with a praise kink raised in a weird dead-end religion who falls to pieces in the presence of a pretty girl, whose brain is completely full of jokes and memes to cover up my various damages, and who is so bad at expressing my feelings to the object of my affection that I spent literal years pining after them only to do something exceedingly reckless to try and prove my love (I did not kill myself so they could use my corpse, but it was equally stupid and dramatic, and I have a 1/2 success rate - one of them was a guy, long story). Gideon Nav is Weird Girl turned up to 1000 and I love her for it. I am very short and chubby and not at all muscly, but I love cosplaying as her because in our souls we are the same. If we never see her again I will not recover.
Cinderpelt (Warriors) - I am genuinely not sure if I've ever explained Cinderpelt on this blog, so here's a quick summary: Cinderpelt is the first apprentice of the POV character Fireheart, and quickly endears herself to everyone by being enthusiastic and clever. She wants to be the best warrior ever. As an apprentice, she is hit by a car and survives, but her leg is injured severely enough that she is unable to continue warrior training, so she pivots to becoming a medicine cat. (Yes, Warriors is very ableist and this is not even in the top 5 worst examples.) We don't get a ton of insight from Cinderpelt on her thoughts about this until she's a bit older, but basically she determines that she will ensure the Clan is protected and cared for just as valiantly as she would have as a warrior. She becomes one of Fireheart/star's closest friends, and a constant source of comfort and wisdom throughout the first two series. Somewhere in there, I decided she was my favorite character. Enter series 2 book 5, Twilight (I am almost 15 when it comes out), which features a climactic battle as badgers invade the ThunderClan camp while Cinderpelt's best friend Sorreltail goes into labor. The way I remember it is Cinderpelt kicking absolute ass to protect her friend and maybe killing at least one badger, but I think I may have edited this to be more epic in my mind. ANYWAY she dies from her wounds and I cry for like an hour. In the next book, it is revealed that StarClan (cat heaven) thought Cinderpelt was so cool that they wanted her to have a second chance, and she got reincarnated as Cinderkit. I think this is maybe where the mythology really went off the rails objectively, but you won't convince me it was anything but beautiful. Now she lives as Cinderheart, who had her own journey through rehabilitating an injury but has become a badass and respected warrior herself. (There is also some bullshit about Cinderpelt having been in love with Fireheart lalalala I do not care she is a cool bitch and more than her relationships!)

The 7 best new and returning TV Shows in 2023
Tumblr media
We already have a list of 7 new and returning TV shows that should be put right on your must-watch list, so we can assure you that 2023 will be a fantastic year for TV shows. With new programs like the BBC's touching drama Best Interests and HBO's epic and horrifying The Last of Us in January, there is something for everyone. Along with returning favorites like You and Sex Education from Netflix, Clarkson's Farm is back on Prime Video. 1. Sex Education season 4 For more crazy antics and coming-of-age drama in 2023, Asa Butterfield, Gillian Anderson, Ncuti Gatwa, Aimee-Lou Wood, Emma Mackey, Connor Swindells, Kedar Williams-Stirling, and Mimi Keene will all be back. The critically acclaimed teen drama's final season is anticipated (*sobs*), but it will also feature Schitt's Creek actor Dan Levy as Maeve's new Ivy League tutor Thomas Molloy. https://youtu.be/goke5cXZ3Ro 2. You season 4 As Joe, played by Penn Badgley, reluctantly turns into a detective in London after learning that he might not be the only murderer in town, he is accompanied by Ed Speelers (Downton Abbey), Charlotte Ritchie (Fresh Meat, Feel Good), Adam James (Vigil), and Charlotte Scott (Fresh Meat, Feel Good). Netflix will start streaming You season 4 part 1 on February 10. https://youtu.be/Xp30pyRW23U 3. Velma Release on January 12, HBO US broadcaster Max; UK broadcaster TBD Featuring: Constance Wu, Sam Richardson, and Mindy Kaling The most intelligent member of Scooby-team, Doo's Velma Dinkley (Mindy Kaling), has her origin tale in this animated series for adults. There is no news yet on whether Velma, a longtime LGBTQ+ icon and recently confirmed queer character, will be portrayed as such in Kaling's project, despite the fact that we know the show will contain a "love triangle". So let's hope. https://youtu.be/lHdtsWn7sgE 4. Daisy Jones & The Six Release: March 3, 2023, Prime Video Riley Keough, Sam Claflin, and Suki Waterhouse appear in the series. This miniseries, which was produced in the form of a mock-doc episode of MTV's Behind The Music, follows a fake rock band as they erupt and ultimately implode in 1970s Los Angeles. Expect plenty of sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll since it is based on Taylor Jenkins Reid's best-selling book, which was partially inspired by the real-life highs and lows of Fleetwood Mac. https://youtu.be/s9kwIlRJNy0 5. Secret Invasion Availability: early in 2023, Disney+ Ben Mendelsohn, Kingsley, and Samuel L. Jackson are the stars. Ben-Adir Do you recall Captain Marvel's shape-shifting aliens, the Skrulls? They will be the main subject of this new superhero program, which will depict a more nuanced and subdued side of Samuel L. Jackson's Nick Fury. As a "crossover event series," there is a good chance that other beloved Marvel characters will make a surprise appearance. https://youtu.be/qZVTkn2NjS0 6. Masters of the Air Release: Apple TV+ in 2023 Featuring: Barry Keogh, Callum Turner, and Austin Butler This miniseries about World War II has a solid resume. Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg serve as executive producers, and Cary Fukunaga of No Time to Die The director Joji Fukunaga is one of them. A talented ensemble of up-and-coming performers, led by Elvis actor Austin Butler, portrays the valiant "bomber boys" who fought the war in the air. https://youtu.be/aDyDg04x1W0 7. Poker Face Starring: Natasha Lyonne, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Adrien Brody; release date: January 26, Peacock (US); broadcaster in the UK TBC This detective drama was conceptualized by Glass Onion director Rian Johnson and offers a fascinating idea. The lead role of Charlie Cale, a sleuth with an uncanny ability to detect deception, belongs to Natasha Lyonne (Russian Doll). The 10-episode season has a "case-of-the-week" structure, making it a potential Murder, She Wrote replacement for the streaming era. https://youtu.be/UH5uGZ9SW7A Read the full article

Custom Die Struck Lapel Pins in Pop Culture: A Look at Iconic Pins in Film and TV
In the world of pop culture, custom die struck lapel pins have made their mark as iconic symbols in film and television. These small but impactful accessories have been featured in various iconic moments, adding a layer of depth and meaning to the characters and stories they are a part of. Let's explore some of the most memorable custom die struck lapel pins in pop culture and the significance they carry.
Tumblr media
Die Struck Lapel Pins: A Brief Overview
Custom die struck lapel pins are crafted using a stamping method that creates a raised and recessed design without any color. This technique allows for intricate detailing and a sophisticated, elegant look. Often made from materials like brass, copper, or iron, these pins are prized for their durability and timeless appeal.
The Enigmatic Pin in "Mr. Robot"
In the critically acclaimed TV series "Mr. Robot," the protagonist, Elliot Alderson, is rarely seen without his signature black hoodie and a distinct custom die struck lapel pin featuring a computer motherboard. This pin serves as a visual representation of Elliot's role as a cybersecurity engineer and hacker, embodying his deep connection to technology and the world of cybercrime. It acts as a silent yet powerful emblem of his identity and purpose, underscoring the show's themes of technological subversion and personal identity.
The Timeless Elegance of the Pink Ribbon in "The Great Gatsby"
In Baz Luhrmann's adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's classic novel "The Great Gatsby," the character Daisy Buchanan is often adorned with a delicate custom die struck lapel pin in the shape of a pink ribbon. This pin symbolizes Daisy's association with wealth, femininity, and the societal expectations placed upon her. Its subtle yet impactful presence serves as a visual motif, echoing the themes of love, materialism, and the illusions of the Jazz Age.
Tumblr media
The Iconic Shield in "Captain America: The First Avenger"
In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the custom die struck lapel pin takes on a heroic role in the form of Captain America's iconic shield emblem. Steve Rogers, before becoming the super-soldier Captain America, proudly wears a small replica of the shield on his lapel. This pin not only foreshadows his transformation into a symbol of hope and resilience but also represents his unwavering patriotism and commitment to defending freedom and justice. It becomes a poignant symbol of honor and courage throughout his journey as a superhero. 
The Enduring Legacy of Custom Die Struck Lapel Pins
From their subtle yet profound presence in "Mr. Robot" to their symbolic significance in "The Great Gatsby" and the superheroic emblem in "Captain America: The First Avenger," custom die struck lapel pins have undoubtedly left an indelible mark on pop culture.
These small accessories have the power to convey profound messages, enrich character development, and evoke emotions without saying a word. As we continue to witness their presence in film and television, it's clear that custom die struck lapel pins are more than just decorative pieces – they are iconic symbols that resonate with audiences on a deep and meaningful level.

🚀 Decoding Elon Musk's Unbelievable Success Secrets!
Tumblr media
Musk: The Quirky Space Cowboy 🚀 Elon Musk, the real-life mad scientist and rich dude extraordinaire, is like the modern-day version of Ozymandias – just without the ancient ruins and desolate wastelands, and with way more Twitter followers. This guy is like the king of the nerds, ruling over a kingdom of electric cars, reusable rockets, and memes that sometimes make even less sense than his grand plans. Picture this: one moment he's dancing like no one's watching (but everyone is) at a Tesla event, and the next he's launching a car into space like it's just another Wednesday. He's so rich that his net worth could buy you a whole fleet of Teslas, yet he tweets like he's just discovered the internet. Elon's CV reads like a superhero origin story. He's the CEO of not one, but two major companies. He owned the social media platform that birthed keyboard warriors, and oh, by the way, Marvel used his swag to craft Tony Stark. Talk about goals! Remember when Elon first sashayed onto the scene? He had this epic to-do list: end climate change, make Mars a vacation destination, unravel the mysteries of the universe using AI, and maybe just save humanity in his spare time. No biggie. For years, Musk's fan club treated his plans like gospel truth. Sure, he hadn't taken anyone to Mars yet, but he did make rockets that are basically the Energizer bunnies of space travel. And let's not forget how he jump-started the electric car scene – he basically made electric cars cool, like James Dean for the environmentally conscious. To decode the enigma that is Musk, we turn to Talulah Riley's book – not because Musk was her second and third husband (seriously, that's more commitment than I have to finishing a bag of chips), but because her romance novel Acts of Love sounds suspiciously like Elon's life. It's all about a misandrist writer who falls for a biotech billionaire on a mission to save the world. Sound familiar? Musk's public image is like his secret sauce. Back in the day, he was as socially awkward as a penguin at a disco. He even worried he wasn't as glamorous as the competition. But this dude turned things around – he morphed from "Shai Agassi, Founder of Glamour" to "Elon Musk, Lord of the Universe." Elon's social ascent was like a rocket launch. He needed people to know him to buy rocket parts, so he decided to become Mars' number one hype man. It worked, and suddenly everyone was like, "Hey, there's that dude who's all about Mars!" Then came the infamous year of 2018 – Musk called someone a "pedo guy," smoked weed on a podcast, and tweeted that he had "funding secured" to take Tesla private. Whoopsie daisy! Lawsuits rained down like confetti at a New Year's Eve party. But wait, there's more! In 2020, Musk said, "To hell with nice," and ditched his PR team. Now he's the press release king, and his favorite email response? The poop emoji. I kid you not. You know how they say a new Musk scandal a day keeps the actual news away? Well, it's kind of true. With a Musk controversy buffet, it's hard to focus on just one serving. It's like trying to pick a favorite ice cream flavor at Ben & Jerry's – you end up with brain freeze and no answers. So, is Musk a bad boss or are his employees just slackers? Acts of Love's Radley Blake could clear this up. Radley's a control freak who only fires people who don't give "maximum effort." His employees are so motivated they don't even need Red Bull to sprout wings. But in real life, Musk isn't exactly the "Employee of the Month" poster child. People report him stomping through Tesla factories, red-faced and firing folks like it's a carnival game. One executive said they had to stoop in meetings to seem smaller than Musk – like they were at a toddler tea party. And don't even get me started on workplace safety. Tesla factories were apparently more dangerous than your grandma's staircase in a haunted house. Musk's dislike for the color yellow (yellow tape, yellow paint) led to some questionable safety practices – it's like he's running a risk assessment in a Tim Burton movie. But Musk is a romantic hero in his own right. He's got a tragic past and a longing for love. Childhood bullies, check. Troubled relationship with his dad, check. He's like a wounded bird in a billionaire's body. No wonder he's looking for someone to save him from all that money. The dude's been married more times than I've accidentally sent screenshots to the wrong person. He's got enough kids to start a soccer team, and he's probably planning to send them to Mars for summer vacation. But hey, at least he's not alone, right? He's got Twitter, his second favorite significant other. So there you have it – Elon Musk, the eccentric entrepreneur who turned himself into the star of his own romantic novel. One minute he's making rockets, the next he's tweeting like a kid who just found out they can use their teacher's chalkboard. Will he save the world? Maybe. Will he keep us entertained? Absolutely. 🚀🎉# Musk: The Quirky Space Cowboy 🚀 Elon Musk, the real-life mad scientist and rich dude extraordinaire, is like the modern-day version of Ozymandias – just without the ancient ruins and desolate wastelands, and with way more Twitter followers. This guy is like the king of the nerds, ruling over a kingdom of electric cars, reusable rockets, and memes that sometimes make even less sense than his grand plans. Picture this: one moment he's dancing like no one's watching (but everyone is) at a Tesla event, and the next he's launching a car into space like it's just another Wednesday. He's so rich that his net worth could buy you a whole fleet of Teslas, yet he tweets like he's just discovered the internet. Elon's CV reads like a superhero origin story. He's the CEO of not one, but two major companies. He owned the social media platform that birthed keyboard warriors, and oh, by the way, Marvel used his swag to craft Tony Stark. Talk about goals! Remember when Elon first sashayed onto the scene? He had this epic to-do list: end climate change, make Mars a vacation destination, unravel the mysteries of the universe using AI, and maybe just save humanity in his spare time. No biggie. For years, Musk's fan club treated his plans like gospel truth. Sure, he hadn't taken anyone to Mars yet, but he did make rockets that are basically the Energizer bunnies of space travel. And let's not forget how he jump-started the electric car scene – he basically made electric cars cool, like James Dean for the environmentally conscious. To decode the enigma that is Musk, we turn to Talulah Riley's book – not because Musk was her second and third husband (seriously, that's more commitment than I have to finishing a bag of chips), but because her romance novel Acts of Love sounds suspiciously like Elon's life. It's all about a misandrist writer who falls for a biotech billionaire on a mission to save the world. Sound familiar? Musk's public image is like his secret sauce. Back in the day, he was as socially awkward as a penguin at a disco. He even worried he wasn't as glamorous as the competition. But this dude turned things around – he morphed from "Shai Agassi, Founder of Glamour" to "Elon Musk, Lord of the Universe." Elon's social ascent was like a rocket launch. He needed people to know him to buy rocket parts, so he decided to become Mars' number one hype man. It worked, and suddenly everyone was like, "Hey, there's that dude who's all about Mars!"

@skyler10fic: #2015 was a huge year#AoS feels like it belongs here too even though it doesn't fit the theme of titles#I remember WW feeling like a huge gamechanger in the theater#but it ended up being Captain Marvel that had the real cultural impact I think
I was honestly going to start with 2015!!! Supergirl, Agent Carter AND Jessica Jones! Heroines were thriving!!! (I know Peggy is not a superheroine but whatever, she's a special agent/spy in a superhero franchise). Big year indeed. But then I was like - wait if I go further back I can include WW tv series and it will also show an evolution of the productions... So here we are!
Before I decided to focus on titles I was indeed considering including Agents of SHIELD: It always felt like it was Daisy's show as much as it was Coulson's (even if they insisted on putting Coulson bigger in the posters). I would have also included Legends of Tomorrow, as Sara Lance/White Canary became the face and lead of the show, even if she didn't start as so (though she was one of - if not the most - popular character from the get go).
You think Captain Marvel had more cultural impact? Hmm I don't know, I think Wonder Woman had a bigger reach, specially as she was already a known character even outside geek audiences, and had a mostly well received first film. Of course, WW84 dissappointed and the DCEU was messy and ended, so only Captain Marvel is still going.
I mean, I enjoyed both CM movies (a shame they suffer so much because of biggots and perhaps a little MCU fatigue in the last 3 years), but personally I still prefer the first WW film. I like that they gave Carol a little team though, I thought Diana could use a superheroine friend in her movies too (like Wonder Girl or something).

Tumblr media
Basic Information
Full Birth Name: Anastasia Everly
Full Legal/Chosen Name: Anastasia Everly
Moral Alignment: Chaotic Good
Date of Birth: June 21st, 2000
Age: 16 years
Timeline of her story (excluding flashbacks): 2012-2016
Gender: Cisgender Female
Gender Identity: Female
Species: Bionic Superhero Mutant Trybrid
Ethnicity: Caucasian
Heritage: Half-American, half-Greek
Marital Status: In a committed relationship (dating)
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual
Place of Birth: Lithios
Place of Residence: Mission Creek, California
Occupations: Mentor at Davenport Bionic Academy (formerly), Medical Consultant at Mighty Med Hospital (formerly), Art Intern at Yale University (currently)
Portrayer: Daisy Ridley
Personality: Anastasia Everly is generally quiet and can sometimes be shy. However, she is bold despite how timid she seems and will speak her mind when she believes that she is baring witness to injustice. She is very insecure when it comes to her own personal interests and does not like to talk about herself. She thinks of herself as an observer. She would rather pay attention to the world so that she can absorb it and gain more knowledge rather than always be the one giving out the knowledge. Because she is very observant, she is able to read people and is very thoughtful when she wants to be. Her observance also makes her very clever, but can be a disservice to her because she sometimes pays too much attention to detail and is overly paranoid. Anastasia is well-rounded, but her main talents and interests revolve around the Arts. She is a mega superhero fan and her favorite superhero is Kamala Khan also known as Miss Marvel. Anastasia is a talented cartoonist and creates her own comic books, but does not publish them until after she graduates high school.
Anastasia is extremely loyal, sometimes to a fault. Though her loyalty makes her a valuable friend and teammate, it also sometimes makes her gullible, easy to manipulate, and overly passionate. Her open mind and eagerness to learn often serve her positively, but these traits also sometimes make her too idealistic and irrational. Sometimes, her head is in the clouds and she does not know how to bring herself back down until it is too late. Her insecurities also contribute to her indecisiveness, but this is balanced out by her ability to think creatively. These traits often affect her ability to use her bionics and superpowers, and when her Alpha Gene is triggered, she has a difficult time pulling herself out of it. When she is using her abilities, however, she has been trained to stay focused and since she is skilled at creating things, she can clear her mind and allow herself to do what she needs to do with her abilities depending on the situation.
When Anastasia was younger, she was more idealistic. Though she still has those same ideals, she has grown to have a broader view of life and learned to be proud of her talents.
Bionic Abilities and Superpowers
Anastasia’s main ability is molecular manipulation, a unique ability that only she has. This gives her the ability to manipulate and control molecules. It is an ability that she was born with as a superpower. She also inherited the ability to shape-shift from her father. These abilities were amplified when she had a bionic chip implanted in her that gave her unique variations of said abilities, which include the following: molecular energy blast, temporary pain relief, pain inducement, telekinesis, and reality warping.
As a superhero, Anastasia was born with other abilities. These abilities include basic superpowers which are thermal touch, thermonuclear body blast, proton ring generation, and the ability to fly.
Anastasia’s mutant genetics give her unique abilities as well. She has a unique ability called empathy that enhances her overall ability to feel things, including but not limited to emotions and anything regarding the five senses. She also has an alter ego that her sister named Sparky. Sparky is the result of a rare mutant gene called the Alpha Gene that only Anastasia has. Anastasia’s Alpha Gene is triggered when she experiences an intense panic attack or feels protective. When the gene is activated, Anastasia is fully conscious but unable to control her alter ego. When the gene becomes dormant again, Anastasia remembers everything that happened when she was under its influence. The effects of the gene are similar to the effects of the Commando App, but are more permanent, visible, and difficult to manage. When Anastasia was a little girl, it was easier to manage her Alpha Gene and her sister nicknamed the alter ego Sparky because she was easy to tame like a puppy. However, this changed as Anastasia grew older and the name Sparky became progressively ridiculous as the Sparky persona became more intimidating. When Anastasia is under Sparky’s influence, her skin turns a fiery red, her voice deepens, and she becomes extremely aggressive, protective, and territorial. This gene also heightens her senses and gives her enhanced physical strength when activated. The Alpha Gene and Sparky persona are not part of an application or a technological implant, but rather, they are the results of a biological enhancement and mutation in Anastasia’s system.

I’m just really sad because Agents of Shield used to be my absolute favorite show. You could show me a thirty second clip and I could tell you what season and episode it was in. I would rewatch episodes all the time on Netflix, find time every Friday (or Wednesdays back in the day) to watch the newest episode, and I remember sucking my friends and family in to watching it with me. I loved it. But I hate season five.
I hate what they did to Daisy, I hate the way the show characterized Fitzsimmons (I never really shipped them in the first place, but still. I could at least stomach them until the second part of this season), I hate the unnecessary drama that had to be added in for some reason, and I hate that now the writers don’t give Simmons a personality anymore outside of Fitz. Honestly, I only really enjoyed Daisy’s fight scenes, the brief Skimmons hug, and the Philinda kiss.
It’s been five seasons and they still let Fitz get away with anything, force Daisy into situations she doesn’t even want to be in and find some demented way to punish her for any mistake she makes, and use the same old “the universe keeps pushing us apart” bullshit with Fitzsimmons.
I used to get so excited for this show but now I don’t even really know if I’ll watch season six.

she's a marvel character from the show agents of shield and she's in the comics as well. In the comics, Fury assembled a team called the secret warriors and they played a role in the secret invasion storyline. Daisy led that team and just overall had a strong relationship with Fury. She was one of the only people Fury trusted and she even became the director of shield for a while, while being incredibly young (her character was introduced when she was 18).  she's also an inhuman and goes by the superhero name Quake. 
In the show, she and Fury don’t have that big of a relationship (they’ve never interacted on screen but Fury did mention her once) however, because secret invasion was focusing on Fury (and people believed it would focus a little on shield) and since Daisy eventually becomes one of the most important shield agents on the show, people thought she might make an appearance like her comic counterpart. Agents of shield also ends with her in space....
But what really caused many people to think she would appear is the fact that almost all of the major and minor accounts that post leaks and rumours (many of them true) kept saying for the past 2 years that she would make an appearance. It got to the point where they listed specific episodes, etc...
also, the actress saying she was open to return to the roles and her seemingly not being booked for much work after agents of shield ended (which ended up being false because she's currently booked and busy) helped people think she was returning. She herself said she wasn't involved in secret invasion months ago, but people thought she was pulling an Andrew Garfield so it didn’t stop anyone from still believing she was making an appearance. 
Lastly, a rude person tweeted about how she, Chloe Bennet, wasn’t talented enough to work alongside several marvel actors and she replied to him, called him out, and basically suggested she would be working with other marvel actors at some point (although I personally assumed she was referring to non marvel projects)
Her pictures using the alien emojis and daisies being everywhere also led people to think she was hinting at something because her character’s name is daisy and also aliens lol, but even that she addressed and said it wasn’t related but again, people thought she was just lying so she wouldn’t spoil the surprise. 
Can someone who watched Agents of Shield please explain the whole Daisy Johnson Secret Invasion thing to me?
Who is she. What makes her so special. And why did so many people online think she would appear in Secret Invasion to the point of sounding crazy when she didn't.
