I recently read Geoffrey Wellum's autobiography, First Light, which was really interesting. He was the youngest Spitfire pilot in the Battle of Britain at just 18 years old. I also watched the movie that is based on it starring Sam Heughan and Ben Aldridge.

Wellum obituary from 2018:

Geoffrey Wellum who flew spitfire in Battle of Britain dies aged 96

me telling you my season 2 timeskip fic is finished and contains longing, grief, pit fighter Vi, a backstory for Loris, a ship no one asked for, cool scenes with Ambessa Medarda, and a Maddie Nolen kiss. Jinx shows up, too! and Vi gets a hug!

Caitvi is looking a lot like Clexa rn

I really hope I'm not the only one seeing this. But it kinda fits perfectly.

Lexa leaving Clarke at Mount Weather, breaking both Clarke's heart and her own.

Caitlyn hurting and leaving Vi in the tunnel, utterly breaking Vi's heart and you can see a split second of sorrow in Cait's eyes before she goes up the ladder.

Lexa leading the coalition while it tries to upturn itself with civil war

Caitlyn leading a nation about to break during a war.

Clarke goes on a self exile, changing her appearance hiding her identity looking like an extremely attractive bloody mess, being completely depressed.

Vi gets drunk and fights in the pits, changes her appearance hiding her identity looking like a filthy emo dumpster kitten, also very depressed.

Now we just have to see if there a forced angry reunion with lots of feels, if the leaks are true, if they're going to be happy, or if one of them is going to die and save the other with their spirit.

I hope you see my vision

listen it’s none of my business but when you say “Bilbo would have been better for taking the Ring” and then state “Frodo’s character was mishandled” I think maybe you like the Lord of the Rings inside your head more than the one actually written 💀 as if it wasn’t stated multiple times both in the text and by Tolkien himself why Frodo was the Ringbearer. Pleeeeeaaaase PLEEEEAAASE stop giving me gray hairs and take an interest in the text you read and it’s deeper meanings beyond power scaling characters, favoritism and finding the “most efficient way to take the ring to Mordor”. The debates about who should have taken the Ring are the exact same as “they should have flown the eagles to Mordor” except it’s spoken by people who genuinely are avid fans of the books and movies.

Do you ship it?

Based on a very nicely presented idea by @starburst2000

Hello again Ester. Sorry for the long wait, this is an awesome idea, I've just not been all that motivated to do much lately. Concurrent submissions are my favourite, yknow! (also yes, I referenced the street fighter movie)
