i love when kraglin is so casually a dick cause there’s no malice behind it, it’s just the way he is. he tells the sobbing woman to shut up when they’re hiding from adam. he calls cosmo a bad dog and refused to take it back. he says adam’s name is stupid and tells him to pick something cooler. like yeah he’s considerably nicer than most of the ravagers we’ve met but that man was still raised by yondu and his clan of assholes. he’s blunt and indifferent and learned his social cues from petty thieves and war criminals. he’s a dick.

no but now that the brainrots back i need to talk abt the holiday special cause it gave me SO MUCH good content. pete and kraglin being confirmed siblings !! peter teaching kraglin about christmas and kraglin genuinely being into it !!! him maybe not totally understanding the reasoning behind it but helping pete gather materials to make a tree regardless !! them working together to make little gifts for yondu and the rest of the crew !! then him getting scolded for being “soft” and being told he should know better and you can literally see the foundation being built!!!! decades of learning to keep his mouth shut, not talk back, internalize shit and move on…. until it explode out of him at the most inopportune time :)

you know. there are so many good found family moments in vol3 but one thing i especially love is how much the people of knowhere genuinely seem to care for the guardians. during adam’s attack, that one guy who sounds on the verge of tears, desperately pleading for adam to stop beating on nebula… that lady who runs to her later on when she’s realigning her limbs, calls her by name and tries to help her up even when nebs shakes her off. the way steemie and several others join in on the group hug at the end. it doesn’t just feel like they’re tolerated, they feel loved.

canon connections i am interested in exploring further!

kraglin + rocket: kraglin was there during the whole “i know you because you’re me” scene with yondu. did they ever talk about it after yondu’s funeral? or did they just give each other a knowing nod and decide to ignore it ever happened? as far as i’m concerned, kraglin did survive the snap, so i’d also love to explore how their friendship could have grown during those 5 years + their new dynamic with rocket as captain of the guardians team 2.0.

kraglin + nebula: did they ever discuss her level of involvement in the mutiny? like, during the early days post-vol 2 when kraglin can’t help but wonder had she not incapacitated yondu, would things have gotten as bad as they did? would his friends still be alive otherwise? how did they move past that? i’d like to build upon their relationship during the snap years, same as rocket, but i’d also love to expand upon the way they are a direct parallel to peter/gamora, both viewed as second best to their respective fathers + how they differ in coping.

in a weird turn of events, the fallout brainrot i've been living with for the past week has somehow transitioned back into kraglin muse so.... hi :3

kraglin calling cosmo a bad dog and not feeling an ounce of remorse over it no matter how much she complains, even doubling down when she drags other people into it……. that’s peak older brother content ty

i know kraglin in the comics isn’t the same as mcu kraglin ( since james gunn basically just took the name of a random one-off character and gave it to our boy ) but goddamn….. these panels from the yondu solo are fucking me up 🥺

#・ﾟ✩ ➶ ⠀i'm not mysterious and quiet i'm just iron deficient. ⸻ ooc. #''trust kraglin with my life'' :((((((( #on one hand i’m happy i don’t have to deal w decades of comic bullshit but on the other…… #comic bullshit would at least give me a foundation to build off of LMAO #anyway #they aren’t the same character but ​i do want to take aspects of this kraglin into consideration #like his confidence and general bastard vibes are v reminiscent of vol 1 krags in his element w the ravagers and i love it #so uh…… keep that in mind i guess 😅

kraglin being mistaken for a terran by other terrans until something happens and he ends up bleeding in front of them and the absolute betrayal they’d feel when his blood is blue and inky and definitely NOT what they expected is. v good i think.

#・ﾟ✩ ➶ ⠀i'm not mysterious and quiet i'm just iron deficient. ⸻ ooc. #why would he have to pretend to be terran?? idk man #it’s more likely ​he just wouldn’t bother telling anyone lmao #not because it’s a secret or anything. he’s just never had to actually point it out cause it’s always been a given. #like 'any idiot can plainly see i got the xandarian alphabet tattooed on me how is it MY fault you can’t read??!?' #it’s giving big snap years energy actually

i like that kraglin got his own shoutout in peter’s criminal record. like it obviously states the ravagers because they’re a dangerous faction and yondu has his name because he’s the captain of a clan, but kraglin’s name is right there next to yondu’s as someone important to look out for. he’s not just lumped in with the other ravagers. he’s a lil infamous all on his own and i’m so proud 🥰

best kraglin look is always gonna be vol 1….. the mohawk, the eyebags, the shit eating grin when he welcomes peter back onto the ship……. my bastard king

since krag was left out of endgame/IW entirely, i’m actually really interested in developing his life during the 5 year gap! i’ve defaulted to him returning to stakar’s crew to explain his absence in canon but like. i refuse to believe he wouldn’t have routinely checked back in with rocket and nebs considering they’re his last link to anything familiar. i just think it’d be fun and an easy way to develop his relationships with more earthbound muses so uh. if that sounds like smth you’d be interested in, lmk!

#・ﾟ✩ ➶ ⠀i'm not mysterious and quiet i'm just iron deficient. ⸻ ooc. #the fact that there’s a ~4 year gap in the guardians timeline that we know nothing abt #krags has been with them since the end of vol 2 which happens only a few months after vol 1 #so he’s been w them since 2014!!! #by 2018 they’re as much his family as the ravagers were!!! #he wouldn’t have abandoned them. and since the gunns confirmed he survived….. where tf is he.jpeg

i recently read a fic that explained kraglin’s absence during iw/endgame by saying he’d returned to xandar to help rebuild after thanos annihilated them and honestly….. that’s kinda cute

#・ﾟ✩ ➶ ⠀i'm not mysterious and quiet i'm just iron deficient. ⸻ ooc. #i hc kraglin as having grown up on a xandarian outpost that was destroyed during the kree-nova war #so he never really had a connection to xandar or its overall culture and has largely rejected it since joining the ravagers #but….. #him hearing abt the planet being decimated when thanos stole the stone #and wanting to help???? #that’s CUTE 🥺 #( he’d literally be that scene from the incredibles like 'we just saved this planet can’t you stay saved for FIVE MINUTES?? 😡' ALSJDGD ) #( but also lbr. in true ravager fashion it also wouldn’t be entirely selfless.…. #it wouldn’t hurt to be owed a favor should he need another clean slate for completely non-nefarious reasons 😅 ) #he doesn’t have many resources to his name but he has a ship. he’s a decent pilot. and he knows how to farm even if he’s rusty. #( and more importantly. after the snap. he’ll need a project to keep busy as he defaults back to repressing and ignoring his losses ) #i wouldn’t be opposed to somehow working that into my snap verse canon

i’m so mad abt this i am currently seeing shrimp colors. THIS is the ideal kraglin!!!!! him fighting alongside his family and ALSO having a big ass gun this is the epitome of a ravager dude this is PEAK DESIGN
