REWATCHED WAKANDA FOREVER YET AGAIN...

Okay, so I keep seeing posts saying Namor is a villain, and I find it so infuriating because he's clearly an anti-hero. "Yeah but he killed Queen Ramonda and a lot of Wakandans." Yeah, I know. If y'all ever heard of tribal wars then it makes sense. So here's the thing: Nakia killed two of his children. It's supposed to be an eye for an eye kind of thing, but obviously, Wakanda will never give up Riri and Nakia. He has no choice but to attack until the blood debt has been repaid, but then it will never be repaid because that's just how things go in war. The death tolls just rise, wars are waged again and again to avenge those who have been killed until there's no one left in one or both factions. Lots of tribes have been wiped out because of tribal wars.

Shuri choosing to spare Namor's life breaks the cycle. It's not like a preventive measure because M'Baku was wrong. They were plunged into eternal war when Nakia killed those two handmaidens. Remember, Talokan was isolated for 500 years, maybe more. They are a nation that kept to the old ways, free from western influences. To them, K'uk'ulkan's plan to wash away the surface world is normal. We see this with the fall of Tikal, which is basically an it's them or us situation (please correct me if I'm wrong but this was the vibe I got from whatever I read + documentaries...they were rivals and one is wary of the other until Uht Chan went okay let's end this shit. But also take this with a grain of salt because not much is known about the Snake Kings 🫣🫣). Ok that's all! Thanks for listening to my TED talk.

(Cuz ofc nashuri is in my head now 24/7)

(And omfg I just love the Talokan storyline so much!! We need a series, a movie, new comics!!)

(Ah hehe I just remembered Namor slept with a tapeworm queen to prevent war. He's a make love not war kinda guy, so yeah he 100% was propsing using the bracelet thing. It makes sense with his character...and yall know he was just playing hard to get when he kept saying he needed to kill Riri. I honestly thought he was trying to convince himself more than Shuri lol)

ALSO NOT TRYING TO DEFEND NAMOR BECAUSE OMG JUST WHY BUT please don't act like he did it just because...
