#definition of a hero

[batwingsrosa]

What is the definition of a hero?

Is a hero- per definition- not someone who acted in a courageous manner?

Is a hero not someone who supported the right cause no matter the personal cost?

Is a hero not someone who sacrifices their wellbeing and even their life for a better cause?

Is that not what a hero is?

Whether or not Severus was a good person or not is debatable.

Wether or not he is a hero is not.

He was constantly looking out for Harry and all of his other students to protect them from harm(, the Carrows for example).

He literally lied to Voldemorts face.

Knowing that if Voldemort ever found out about his betrayal he would torture and brutally kill him.

He actively spies on the most dangerous person on eath at the time to help bring about his downfall.

Under great personal risk.

He risked his life every time he saved Harry and lied to his face.

Severus, per definition is what you would call a hero under any other circumstances.

But because it‘s Severus suddenly normal rules don‘t apply.

Listen. I don‘t like James Potter.

I think he was a horrible person. Which is debatable, too.

He was a member of the order of the phoenix who actively worked against Voldemort.

He confronted Voldemort unarmed to save his wife and son.

He sacrificed himself.

That- in my eyes- makes him a hero.

I don‘t have to like him to admit that.

Would it really kill you to admit that what Snape did was heroic too?

Dumbledore: „How many men and women have you watched die?“

Snape:„Lately, only those whom i could not save.“

tender touch ⋆˚୨♡୧˚⋆ katsuki x you

i’m just thinkin about touch starved bakugo. he's rejected any and all forms of affection towards him—absolutely hating the feeling of anyone unnecessarily touching him.

he doesn't know how he's turned into such a sap now for you. it seems like he can't not touch you. it doesn't matter. it can just be him bumping his knee against yours under the table during class or keeping a hand on your back when walking through the crowded halls—he likes touching you. however, he didn't think he'd enjoy you touching him. boy was he wrong.

whenever you're rubbing the muscles in his back after a hard day's worth of training, he's groaning and leaning into your touch—which is something like an anchor, grabbing hold of katsuki and pulling him deeper and deeper until he realizes it's love that makes him crave your touch so much.

Thinking about how this implies that izuku talks about katsuki when he’s with her

Danny Fenton sends Superman a fan email in which he asks for advice. In it he says he is also a non-human hero (he is vague because being a ghost is illegal) Danny mentions that he is being raised by humans. His parents don't know about his activities or species and hate his kind.

Danny was mostly looking for advice on how to make people stop being scared of his non-human characteristics. But Clark really sees himself in this teenager's email. He knows he was lucky to get parents who loved him even as an alien, but he also recalls being young and scared that would change.

So they start regularly exchanging emails, and Superman becomes a kind of mentor even if Danny refuses to tell him anything about his identity.

It turns out that if Danny switches from his ghost form to his human form while holding onto another ghost, he can bring them along for the transformation, forcing them into a physical form.

For some ghosts, this is horrible. But for others, though, it’s a prize of immeasurable valuable. And unfortunately for Danny, word spreads quickly throughout the Ghost Zone of this ability.

And thus begins the illustrious adventure of Danny the necromancer.

…running away from the restless dead that are trying to force him to revive them.

Jason Grace, consistently telling Leo he is awesome.

Name one other character that does that. I dare you.

I like to think that pre-Oracle Rachel painted scenes from both wars, but she and Percy have no idea until they go back and reflect.

Percy notices, cause Rachel shows him her art, but he just rights it off as weird, even tho something doesn’t feel right.

Like, that’s DEFINITELY a replica Achilles mourning Patroclus. Only it’s two girls, one with flowing hair and a melted face, the other kneeling over her friend, face stricken with grief. He thinks her eyes look familiar. An immortal stands over them. Although they remind more of Ares and less of Thetis.

She has another painting that reminds Percy of a story from the Gigantomachy. Hera cowers under Porphyrion, about to be attacked. Only instead of Zeus and Heracles coming to her aid, it’s a guy with blond hair. His armor and sword is distinctively NOT Greek, but he opts to not comment on it. Rachel did a good job.

There’s more in her little studio, they both dismiss them as dreams. They make Rachel uncomfortable and Percy feels bile rise the more he looks.

He doesn’t realize until months later. It hits him while on the Argo. Him, Jason, Clarisse. THEY were the heroes in those paintings. Jason was the one coming to Hera’s aid. Clarisse was mourning Selina. He was fighting giants.

It all clicked into place, and he tried to remember what else her paintings for-told.

one of the things that makes (movie) poolverine work so well is that i think wade is legit the only love interest in these movies that has not ever told logan who he is. like the whole "you're not an animal, logan", and "girls flirt with the dangerous guy but they don't take him home" deal. wade has never really done anything like that, in fact he's pretty encouraging of whatever the fuck logan feels like doing at any given moment.

I feel like the Robins probably watched horror movies to really up their game, taking notes on the gestures and body language that would creep you out. "Criminals are a superstitious lot", so yeah the guy in full body armour that could beat you up would suck, but a small child, somewhere in the dark, with an echoing laugh all around you as you fire off a hail of bullets, somehow dodging everything and gleefully messing you up. That's psychological warfare.
