Social media fics are fun, but future historical accounts and opinions about our characters (especially if our main characters are kings or important societal figures) about how influential and much-loved said characters become?? That shit makes me go feral every time

#seeing a character work tirelessly and often thanklessly to slowly improve society #often feeling hopeless #and THEN seeing historians several centuries later wax lovingly about how influential and beloved said character is????#i lose my shit EVERY TIME #if a character could potentially fit this trope they are immediate blorbo status #this post is about the goblin emperor #but its also about zuko and the entite gaang #and cliopher mdang and midoriya izuku and peter parker #rulers/kings/politicians/superheroes choosing to be kind again and again and look after those who need it most #and finally being appreciated for their hard work by the people they have helped #there is no other trope i care for more #my posts #tropes
