Pic from this post:

Nat: Bradshaw, you need to get your ass back to North Island

Roo: why? I’m still with Ice and Mav, we’re visiting my uncles in Brentwood.

Nat: Your boyfriend is missing your lap.

Nat: He’s been fidgety, even more than usual.

Nat: it’s like he can’t get comfortable if you’re not here to sit on.

Nat: I seriously just thought he was cute. I can’t have that shit in my head.

Roo: ???

Bob: he does look kinda cute

Roo: oh 🥹

au in which Mav speaks a lot about their child, and Rooster gets insanely jealous of someone he doesn't know because he is supposed to be their only kid, okay?!

At least until Mav doesn't invite all the daggers to his home, and Ice is sleeping with said kid on Bradley's favourite armchair. But instead of a human child between the Iceman's arms, there's a cat. The cutest fucking cat ever seeing on the face of the planet but still, a cat.

Months later, Uncle Slider is still teasing him for being jealous of a cat while Ice pats his curles and "as if we would ever replaced you, baby goose."

[took-my-breath-away]

Have we considered some kid Roo yet? Maybe getting held on Mavericks hip? (Mav is my dad frfr 🌞)

WEBB-VERSE PETER

I lost…

(voice catching)

I lost Gwen. My, um… she was my MJ.

I couldn’t save her.

I’m never gonna be able to forgive myself for that.

But I carried on,

tried to, um… try to keep going,

try to keep being the uh… that

“Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man,”

‘cause I knew that’s what she would

have wanted.

But at some point, I

just-- I stopped pulling my

punches.

I got rageful.

I got bitter.

I just don’t want you to end up like… like me.

RAIMI-VERSE PETER

The night Ben died, I hunted down the man who I thought did it.

I wanted him dead.

I got what I wanted.

It didn’t make it better.

It took me a long time to learn to get through that darkness.

Peter is reeling. Struck by their losses. Their regrets. Their warning.

PETER

I want to kill him. I want to tear

him apart.

I can still hear her voice in my head.

Even after she was hurt, she said to me that we did the right thing.

She told me

that, “With great power--”

RAIMI-VERSE PETER

--”Comes great responsibility.”

[starlightseraph]

[scottishaccentsareawesome]

(IceMav!Parents and Young Daggers AU (again :)) - Ice and Mav come back from date night and the inside of the house looks like a bomb went off, with Slider hopelessly trying to clean the living room)

Iceman: SLIDER! Slider: In my defense, all the children are still alive!

(they all suddenly hear a loud thud and crash upstairs)

Young Jake(after a couple moments): - I'M OK! Slider(to Ice and Mav): See? Still alive!!!

[kisses4tom]

heyy i know you already did an "uncle Bill" hc but i was thinking about if you could make a "soon to be uncle" Bill hc pleaseee! 🙏🏻🎀❤️ ty if you do!

(sorry for my english but it's not my first language 🥲)

ᡣ𐭩 SOON TO BE UNCLE BILLY

───────────────

you're totally fine ml and OMG YES!! that's so cuteeee i'm so excited to write this HAHAH 😭🤭🫶🏻 i love writing fluff like these so I hope you like it 💕

───────────────

first of all let's pretend Tom is having a child 😻 and it's gonna be a girl because i can only see him with a little daughter i'm sorry 😭. Now it can either be with you or another woman, nevertheless Bill is gonna be an uncle wooh!!! 🥳

I'm gonna go in order (like from when they told him about the pregnancy to when the baby is born) pretty much.

───────────────

(let's pretend) Tom and the baby mama made a little box with a baby bodysuit that said "uncle Billy" and a pregnancy test to surprise him with.

when Bill opens the box he doesn't realize, but then he reads the bodysuit and sees the pregnancy test, and it hits him.

"aw you guys didn't have to get me anything!...what is this? uncle Billy?...WAIT!! WHAT??"

his jaw immediately hits the floor

he would hug his brother and tell him how much he deserves this child

he'd cry rivers and lakes from the joy 🥹

"I'm so happy for you guys, you truly deserve it!"

he's so excited!

he would obviously respect the (future) parents' privacy, but he won't shut up at the same time about how much he can't wait to meet this baby!

"i'm gonna be an uncle!!"

his dream is basically coming true

he would always ask to see the ultrasound pictures

very invested in the pregnancy~

my man's READY for this child 😭

he would take charge to organize the gender reveal himself

definitely team girl but mostly team healthy 🤓 (TELL ME WHY IS THIS SO FUNNY TO ME BYE)

he would jump and happy cry when the gender is revealed

"Tom! i remind you have a chance to name the baby after me!!"

would DEFINITELY buy all the cute baby clothes 🥹

"look how tiny this is!! I can't believe she will fit in this"

omg wait imagine a baby shopping spree with the baby mama (in-law goals 😩)

"come on it's too cute i can't just leave it here, it's got little strawberries!"

he would make a gift basket with all the essentials!

when he got the call from Tom telling him it's baby time he immediately JUMPED and ran to the hospital to support him in the waiting room

he would record everything

"hi baby! that's your dad in the waiting room and he's shitting his pants right now!!"

the first time he held her it was like love at first sight for him and obviously he didn't hold back tears 🎀

"she's tinyy oh my god how is that possible!?"

baby voice at it's FINEST

he's scared to be too loud so he's pretty much whispering the whole time

he wont stop congratulating the parents and telling them how cute and perfect she is!!

"my name is officially uncle Billy. I'm legally changing it"

He refers as a cool aunt more than uncle (this is a real fact btw! 🤭)

he would go home late after spending the entire day at the hospital

definitely spending the first week at Tom's house with their mom to help!

here's the uncle Billy headcanon I made some time ago if you want to check that out too! 🫶🏻🎀

[alicentsstark]

5-year-old Halo: Cry me a river! Maverick: Callie, I'm not loving this attitude Iceman: You seem a little mean, kid Halo: Sorry should I call you a Wambulance? Later that day...*Maverick and Iceman arguing over something* Slider: You guys are so dramatic. Do I need to call you a Wambulance? Callie: Wa Wa Wa Wa Wa Wa!

I really wish they would’ve kept Jazmine’s backstory in the series. It would’ve showed that she was complex like Huey was, and that even she had her own struggles, despite their challenges being different from one another.

As written in the comics, Jazmine had issues with her identity, particularly when it came to her hair. Although she was biracial, she didn’t inherit her mother’s hair texture and instead, she had an Afro. This caused her to feel self conscious about herself and wonder why she didn’t share that similar feature with her mother.

She was always trying to straighten it, and even tried denying that she had an Afro. Instead of her parents telling her to embrace her hair, they tried many products to make it look more socially acceptable, and none of them worked.

Even in the script of the original pilot episode of “The Boondocks,” Uncle Ruckus made insulting comments about her hair, and condone the bullying that she was dealing with at school.

This dialogue between Ruckus and Robert takes place after Huey and Riley get into a fight with some boys who were making fun of Jazmine, and they end up in detention because of it. Although this scene doesn’t appear in the clip that was released, here’s a screenshot of the part where Ruckus made those remarks about her.

With this, as well as other examples, it confirms to me that Ruckus never truly liked Jazmine. He might have tolerated her a little more than the boys, but he rarely said her name, and pejoratively referred to her as slurs that describe those who are mixed race.

The only one that made her feel good about her hair was Huey. He even advised Tom, Jazmine’s father, to educate her about the beauty of her black roots, but Tom didn’t listen. He even compared her hair to the clouds, big but pretty. That compliment flew over her head, but it was still cute regardless. Also, he still viewed her as black, and didn’t treat her as if she was different.

I love the Jazmine we got in the show, there’s no doubt about it. However, I can only imagine how powerful her character would’ve been had they given us an episode exploring her background, and watching her build her self esteem. It would’ve been really touching to watch her transform from someone that was unsure of herself to a person who was confident in the skin she was in.
