B.J. Goes To Maine but there’s some kid he’s never heard of already there finishing his undergrad, and what do you mean he’s been here the whole time I’ve known you, Hawk? When did you have the time to send a Korean teenager to college in the States, Hawk? Hawk, do I even know you?

“I actually just came from the hospital,” Buck says, and something of worry or concern must show on Eddie’s face, because he immediately follows that with, “Not— not for me. I was visiting Connor and Kameron. And— well, he— he doesn’t have a name yet. They’re still debating. But he’s pretty cute.”

Ah. Well. Of course Buck would make a cute kid. Eddie slouches and sinks back into the couch cushions, and wants to pass out and sleep even more now. “I don’t doubt it.” 

“I got to hold him,” Buck says quietly, staring at his own hands propped palms-up on his lap. “They let me hold him.”

And it was everything you’ve ever wanted but you knew it wasn’t yours and you had to hand him back to whoever he might belong to and it shattered your heart in a thousand pieces?

Or is that just Eddie thinking of— things he shouldn’t be thinking of. But it’s hard not to think when Buck is right here and he’s made of love and sunshine and looks soft and beautiful in the light of late morning. And Eddie wants so badly to keep him. He also doesn’t want to bring up a potentially painful subject. But Buck had to have come over for a reason. Eddie asks, gently, carefully, but he does ask, “You regretting it now?” 

It takes a few seconds for Buck to exhale and then smile. But he smiles. And it feels real. “No. See. That’s the thing. I was worried I might, you know, feel—not regret necessarily, but sadness? Or something like it? Happy for them but sad for me? I was worried I might look at him or I might even hold him, and think about missing out because he’s not mine. But I didn’t.”

Eddie nods slowly, breathes slowly, and at least that’s good. That Buck is content. Not sure why he felt the need to rush over here when both of them should be sleeping off their shift. For at least a few hours. But as long as he’s all right. “Good. That’s good.” 

“Connor was worried, too. That he wouldn’t feel like it’s really his kid. But then I held the baby. And… he’s cute and I love kids, I’ve always loved kids, and maybe he might look kind of like me one day? He has a big, pointy nose like mine, which I’m sure they could have done without. But…” Buck trails off and turns his hands so they’re palm down and resting on his legs. And then he looks over at Eddie. “It didn’t feel like anything. He didn’t feel different from any other baby I’ve held. And I put him back in Connor’s arms, and I could see the way his face changed. The way he lit up and teared up and might have cried because that is his son.” 

The moment he mentions it, tears clearly pool in Buck’s eyes as well. So vivid in the sea of soft blue, but lit with the bright sunshine of the smile on his face. “I could tell that he felt it. I could see it. When he looked at that little boy and knew he would do anything to make him happy and he’d do anything to protect him and give him the life that he should have.” 

Buck makes gestures with both hands like he’s trying to clutch something to his chest, like he feels so much and can’t contain it. “And all I could think. Even if I shouldn’t. Was that I know that feeling.” He laughs but it comes with tears. And more words. “I know what it feels like to hold a kid and care about them and want to protect them. But it’s so different when it feels like they’re yours. It’s so much more. Even if you didn’t— Even if it’s not biological and you’re not. You’re not really the father. Because I hold Chris. I hold him and I feel like he is part of me.”

~~~ Buck has a revelation about what he is to Chris. And to Eddie.

I come back from the void to ramble about the Avengers Assemble cartoon, so be prepared hehe :3

TL;DR/Main idea

The near end of season 1, episode 22 "By The Numbers" is what Steve’s painting of Tony in season 2, episode 19 "The New Guy" (..maybee..?)

I’m looking at this through a Superhusbands lens sooo beware qwq.

Brief spoilers for both episodes, soo yeah!

"By The Numbers" is Tony feeling guilty for allowing Red Skull access to all their training recordings and how to easily defeat them, so Tony fixates and obsesses, to an unhealthy extent, of numbers and statistics to determine the team's next moves. 

Throughout the episode, it is shown that Steve is worried about this and comforts Tony a bunch (dealing with fear and how to react to it, telling him to depend on his team). 

At the end of the episode, Tony re-watches the failing of the Avengers, well more specifically Tony's failure of leadership. It was a huge impact on him (shown beautifully without words and all body language even with the armor and not showing Tony's face) since he pushed the Avengers too far. There was a point where Tony looked on helplessly while one by one, his team was dragged and thrown while looking very beaten up. 

Anyways, so Tony is re-watching the videos and looks haunted and defeated. Steve suddenly walks up to him, holding a yellowish-green-colored cup in one hand.

He comforts Tony again and seems to raise the cup higher, whether to drink it himself or as I see it, as an offer to Tony.

The episode ends with everything fading into black except for Tony's defeated posture.

Now to "The New Guy", which is basically Hawkeye getting over his trust issues with Ant-Man via communication. One prominent moment is where Hawkeye confront Steve about his distrust in Ant-Man while in Steve's room, while Steve is painting. In the background are some paintings that Steve had made in the past. 

One painting that gets a bunch of attention is the one that has a tired-looking Tony staring at whoever is in front of him while holding a cup in one hand. 

I believe that moment is the same one as what could’ve happened off screen after the ending of "By The Numbers” since I can literally imagine Tony, who has probably been through a lot that episode, accepting the cup of coffee albeit grumpy since the two were clashing throughout that episode.

I feel that what Tony was feeling in that episode is conveyed perfectly in Steve's painting. Plus, with the style of Tony in that painting is so season 1, with his thin noodle arms (prominent through shirt sleeves) compared to season 2 having Tony be more defined. Plus, the painting looks like it was at Tony’s lab, the same background where Tony was in “By The Numbers”.

I truly believe that ending of that specific season 1 episode is the inspiration behind the gorgeous painting of a grumpy Tony accepting that cup. Is it a stretch done by a gal who is looking it through a superhusbands lens? Mayhaps.

But, I can so see Steve being greatly affected by how greatly affected Tony was about letting down the team and let the odds control him, thus Steve wanting to capture the moment where Tony learns to depend more on his team (which he definitely does in later episodes and seasons).

It's so adorable because would that mean Tony was looking at Steve like that and Steve decided to paint that? Was it a memory that Steve had, a situation he wanted to have? Because that specific painting is like Steve caught a moment he had with Tony and kept it immortalized forever! :D

so okay. demon-human relations and logistics.

demonic possession transforms the host physiologically: the body is supernaturally fortified beyond pain and damage limits that humans couldn't typically endure (see: meg was still alive when the demon left her body in 1.22), the blood becomes corrupted and demonic in nature for so long as the demon is inside of the host (see: the nurse demon that sam drained in 4.22 went dormant inside her host body, but the blood was still demonic and sam was able to use it to power up)

demonic blood can be introduced into a human body via consumption, which induces psychic powers. the nature of the psychic powers seems to stem from innate demonic abilities, implying that there are some demons who, while unrepresented in canon, can see the future or control minds (at least i can't think of any demons who can do this, and the fandom wiki doesn't list these powers). other powers exhibited by the special children are represented by various other demons to some extent. (it's unknown and unexplored what the relation between demon-induced psychics and naturally born psychics are, though this is really something i'd love to think about more deeply.)

consuming more demon blood causes these powers to, allegedly, become stronger, though "accepting" the powers alone allows them to blossom on their own (the powers exhibited by sam in seasons 4/5 are incongruent with his powers in 1/2, hence allegedly. it's possible that the discrepancy between the seasons 1/2 powers and the seasons 4/5 powers have to do with the quality of blood sam is drinking: azazel is a prince of hell and therefore has a wider range of abilities, and sam consuming just a few drops of his blood would generate large enough amounts of power to tide him over 23 years; meanwhile, lower ranking demons have limited abilities, and so sam would need to consume more of their blood to achieve only a fraction of the power he got from azazel. just one theory to perhaps bridge the dissonance).

anyway, consuming a massive amount of blood causes the body to become demonic in nature, evidenced by the black sclera over sam's eyes in 4.22 when he kills lilith. the more demon blood that enters the body, the more demonic a person becomes.

which would imply then that it's possible to turn a human into a demon through consumption of demonic blood alone rather than the traditional centuries-of-torture-in-hell thing. season 8 also introduces the possibility for this demonization to be reversed: human blood replaces demon blood and thus humanizes the demon, in a perversion of the original concept.

this works conceptually in the way that demons are originally conceived as just corrupted human souls. this is of course contradicted by later retcons of the lore (8.02 specifically, and perhaps other episodes but i can't think of them at the moment), but the original lore allows this ebb and flow to work rather seamlessly: a corrupted soul can become uncorrupted, and an uncorrupted soul can become corrupted, all via the consumption or injection of blood containing the target physiology.

all this to say, it's reasonable within the show's own worldbuilding that dean could have saved sam and cured his whole demon blood thing by feeding him his own human blood.

reposting my catradora spotify playlist (w some that are just for catra tbh cause that's muh gurl lol)

i've added quite a bit to it since last shared. i pull a lotta my amv's from these/their vibes. honestly tho, there's a wide variety of energies that might make what comes on next if you shuffle it a tad surprising and/or jarring lmao but hey - who couldn't use roughly half a day's worth of catradora-coded (imo) tunes? (approaching 12 hours of tracks- i ain't kidding lol)

I've seen a lot of humanformers/holoforms designs for Optimus, and they're all bangers. But I propose something that I haven't seen anyone else do yet: Optimus with a cane or other mobility aid.

I mean, think about it: as I write holoforms, they're not projecting "perfect, flawless" versions of Cybertronian bodies. They're them, but as a human, which means old war injuries and wear and tear are still present. And Optimus gets thrown around, like...a lot.

I don't know. It's just a thought. But I think I kinda like it.

big fan of headcanoning that kid doumeki killed the class chicken because nobody else wanted to and he was already being picked on for being Inexplicably Weird and Smelling Like Death so his classmates probably thought it would work as a bullying tactic. he handled it like a champ and it makes sense that he would but it's still kind of sad
