That Steven Universe feeling of having no right to exist if I'm not helping people, but also being far too burnt out and mentally unwell to do so...

Hot take! A villainous read of Maedhros' character:

So Maedhros and his search for Elured and Elurin. I think what he regretted from that whole episode, was not that he couldn’t find them, but that he had tried to find them at all. I see him as someone proud (descendant of Míriel and Fëanor) and afraid of failure (the eldest child), so when he failed in finding them… Well, he convinces himself it’s for the better as they were a hindrance to the Oath, especially as he later learns Elwing fled with the Silmaril.

Now take this and bring this to the Havens. He curses himself for that fruitless search for Dior’s twin, when he should’ve chased after Elwing instead. No matter, he can do that in Sirion now. Maybe they hear about Elwing’s twins being around somewhere, but Maedhros this time will not go after the wrong quarry. So he chases after Elwing to her ultimate jump, while Maglor finds the twins to keep. But his prey eludes him still, the silmaril gone with the wind and Maedhros has failed once again.

Now take this, and bring this to the end of the War of Wrath. Maglor is pleading with him to repent and surrender. But Maedhros is dispossessed of everything but his pride and the Oath, so to that he shall keep. He is the eldest after all. He MUST succeed at all costs. So to the Host of Aman they go and steal the Silmarils. And lo. He may clutch them but he cannot possess them, so he was destined to fail all along. No matter what he does, it is not in his destiny to succeed.

Take this all in the backdrop of Nirnaeth. The biggest stain on his career as a leader. His biggest failure. Something he cannot reason away, so he must rectify. Score a victory to erase the loss.

And view his jump into a fiery chasm through the lens of him seeking death on Thangorodrim when Fingon came (something I believe was especially denied to him by Morgoth for Maedhros would rather die than be brought so low, while Morgoth would enjoy his humiliation).

His valiant deeds as Lord of Himring are a part of him restoring his pride. Even his kingship he gave up himself, lest it be taken from him through the Doom. And when he had stood aside at Losgar, it was perhaps in pursuit of keeping a promise made to Fingon. No oathbreaker shall he be now at Losgar, not when he had killed to keep the Oath at Aqualonde.

That is how I see him. As someone proud to a fault and deathly afraid of failing the responsibility put on him by his infamous yet illustrious father, in whose shadow he’s bound to live forever.

Well holy shit, I did it. I know I have some "loose" pics I need to go through yet but the majority of untagged HQ to UHQ photoshoots of Bill that I have are up. I’ll do my best to upload rares, personals and IG stories next.

it's weird to see jaskier sometimes described as this meek little sweet thing when his actual personality is more along the lines of 'feral brat'

Everyone is drawing c!quackity as a rich and successful casino man when, in reality, thats not true at all. Canonically, nobody showed to the Las Nevadas opening. You know that casino is definitely losing money

He's a sad, wet beast of a man, and I want you to respect that

This is one of my favorite aspects of him as well. There is almost cognitive dissonance between these two ideas, but ultimately, I’d like to believe he thinks that murder/death is the ultimate show of love. It’s a sacrifice and a burden he willingly takes on purely out of the devotion he has for people.

Had a thought.

In my opinion. Hawks killing people because he loves people is one of the most interesting aspects of his character. Killing out of tenderhearted, protective love while having such a strict, borderline cold moral code is absolutely fascinating to analyze; as well as the fact that he takes death immensely seriously, valuing life despite using it as a strategy.

I wonder if he, somewhere deeply subconscious and psychodynamic, sees killing as an expression of love.

listen. i know it's not 2014 anymore and i know it's just a throwaway line and that the russo brothers didnt intend for marvel action blockbuster captain america the winter soldier to become the tragic gay love story that never was but man. having steve say "it's kind of hard to find someone with shared life experience" in a conversation about romantic relationships right before the bucky reveal is so cruel. it's not just about steve and bucky obviously having the shared experience of being "out of time," it's the fact that they've both been stripped of their humanity in opposite directions. steve is a legend, he is an american hero and a national icon before he is a human being the same way that bucky is a weapon and a killing machine before he is a human being. steve knows that anyone who falls in love with him in the 21st century fell in love with captain america first, and that's just not him. but then the one person who knew him first and knew him best and loved him (not captain america, that little guy from brooklyn) so much he died for it is alive, impossibly. and it's a miracle because he's back and it's horrific because he's back under the worst possible circumstances. but to steve, the winter soldier is worth tearing the world apart for because he's always been bucky first. they find each other and suddenly they're human again. and maybe, despite it all, being "out of time" becomes a blessing, because in this century they'd finally be allowed to love each other the way they've always wanted to. like real people do.

like. no. the captain america trilogy isn't about two queer men traumatized and alienated by war and modern life rediscovering and reclaiming their humanity through their love for each other. but. i mean. it couldve been

Headcanon: Deep down they both want to be their fairy godparent/godkid again after losing them, but don't believe they deserve each other and feel like they aren't worthy to be their companion anymore

They both need counseling and therapy as a whole package

Heads up: finished uploading Bill’s full photoshoots portfolio from 2008 to 2017. As you can imagine 2018 and 2020 were pretty busy years so pinterest has been limiting me a lot lol

They are all HQ and 99% untagged. I’ll do my best to upload rares, personals and IG stories next.
