SHOUTA AIZAWA WAS A GRUMPY DUDE. Be it his resting neutral face or his introverted nature that made him appear in such a manner, the man was just always grumpy-looking. The longer he went on teaching 1A, the more each of them began picking up on it. When they started to really pay attention to him, they marveled at the fact that one can keep the same face for so long.

During the early school hours, they could never see anything else. He always wore the same monotone expression or was just straight-up gloomy.

The main theory was that he simply wasn't a morning person. Everyone and their mothers knew that Aizawa almost never slept; some started to speculate it was some weird quirk that was assigned with the Erasure.

Case in point, his expression never changed. They got so caught up in their conspiracies that some of them were just downright outlandish- though it didn't stop them from creating a pool so they could place their best bets.

It went from a 'maybe he didn't like being around kids so he was always pissed' from Mina down to the possibility of him being an android that was only programmed with one emotion- which was whatever expression was always permeating his face- from Kaminari.

As the school year flew by faster than they had anticipated, they agreed that they would never be subjected to such a sight and that witnessing a comet was probably less rare than this.

And it was like they had almost literally jinxed it.

The following school day, for the very first time since they all started school, Aizawa was actually the first one in the classroom. They had been accustomed to waiting a few minutes every day because he was always late to class and it just didn't start until he felt like showing up to teach them.

Apparently, every one of them noticed because as they filed into the room and sat at their desks, none of them said a single syllable. The sound of their shoes clicking and tapping against the floors was the only sound. One by one, they quickly and quietly sat down; not a single one had the gall to say anything.

Though he wasn't paying attention since whatever was on his phone was more interesting than the fear that was being instilled in them just because he showed up on time. "Just do whatever. Don't be too loud."

And there it was! Mina nailed the bottom of her shoe into Kaminari's calf the second Aizawa turned his eyes away, "Ow! The heck-" She sternly motioned her head toward the front to witness him ever so subtly turning up a smile and looking at his phone.

Just like a line of dominoes standing perfectly, one gets tipped and it's a constant chain reaction. Kaminari gasps before turning around and shoving Kirishima's face off his desk. Kirishima in turn reaches across to slap the back of his palm onto Sero's bicep. And even though Bakugo says up and down he "didn’t care." Sero swiftly crouches down to stretch over and push his shoulder.

Considering they were absolutely not subtle, the rest of their classmates gazed at the interaction between the group of friends before and they all followed suit. It dawned on a few of them that there were probably better things to do, but this was probably going to be the most interesting thing for them for the rest of the year.

He commented on having to go to Mic's room for something, never tearing his eyes from his phone while stalking into the hall and the room erupted into a fit of noise- some confusion and some just pure excitement.

In the midst of the chaos and flurry of kids standing up from their chairs, Jirou lit up like a cartoon light bulb and swung over Kaminari and Mina's legs to get to the wall to try listening in. She knew it was at least morally gray but there was an itching feeling of needing to know building up in the back of her head like a tub filling with water.

“A lot of them have been giving me weird looks lately. You know what the hell’s going on with them?”

“Who knows Sho! Maybe they found out.” He never looked so smug in his life.

“Yes because I’m so sure they know I’m married, Yamada.”

“Oh my gosh.” In succession, three little words got a room full of jittery and rambunctious students calm into a cluster of whispers before quickly dying out. “He’s married!” She all but whispers. If they weren’t loud before, they sure were now.

A heavy, squiggly exclamation point and mark hung from the ceiling whilst they all clamored over one another to rush back to their seating arrangements before Aizawa could saunter back into the room likely due to the deafening noise of themselves.

They knew; their catlike curiosity had been satiated and in those few short minutes, they defied “curiosity killed the cat.” Because maybe it didn’t always kill the cat, maybe the cat's curiosity had greatly been put at ease, all 20 of them.

It was like watching them in a pressure cooker, one of them was bound to crack; breaking under the closing weight of that sated curiosity, so maybe curiously did in fact kill the cat. The silence was eerie and the tension was rapidly increasing until it was all that filled the air.

Much to their delight, they carried on about their day without any of them spilling their guts or (weirdly) without any questions from Aizawa about their behavior.

Neither he nor his class spoke a word for the duration of the school day and when it was time for them to leave and retreat to the comfort of their rooms, they collectively let out a sigh of relief they were all holding in.

He lets out a dreadful sigh before sluggishly crawling into the bed next to you, "They freakin’ know."

The giggle you let out made him wipe off the grin that littered his face before turning his face toward you. "And why do you think so?"

"I went out in the hallway and Yamada let it slip that I was married. Jirou must've been listening ‘cause they got really loud and I heard a lot of shuffling before I walked back in."

"That could’ve meant anything Sho'."

"Yeah, but they were all silent for the rest of the day. That doesn't just happen, not with them. And some of them were also being weird for like a month until they stopped like two months ago until it started again today."

You lifted the lower half of your body up from the mattress to sit above him and pull his head into your lap to comb his hair back with your fingers. "If it started again today then you were probably smiling at your phone when we were talking."

He scoffed, "I do not smile."

"Oh, you freakin' liar you definitely do. Ask Yamada, he has videos of it."

"You know, sometimes I think I shouldn't have gotten married to you." He’s clearly kidding.

"Oh, you're so overdramatic, Sho'. You'll be fine. What's the worst that could happen?"

"They're gonna bombard me with questions until they get answers."

You gasped dramatically and threw your right hand over your heart, "Oh no! How dare they ask questions about their teacher. Monsters I say!"

“Oh whatever." He rolled over onto his back and hid his face in his arms.

And you swore you could almost see the faintest of grins.

I haven't enjoyed a Marvel movie since I stopped bothering to keep up with the MCU in 2014. I don't care for most Marvel movies. I think Marvel Studios is a case study in things that are shitty in the entertainment industry. But holy shit, pretentious posts along the lines of "haha, I don't watch Marvel films, I have real taste, go watch another movie!" are so fucking annoying.

Like, go put up your middle finger at some preps or something. People are allowed to watch whatever they want and enjoy whatever movies they want and make whatever fandom stuff they want, and that doesn't say anything about their intelligence or morals or character. It doesn't mean they are somehow bad at watching movies, or are too stupid to realize whatever nugget of wisdom ye high-and-mighty Marvel Haters think you're the only ones to understand.

Again, not personally a Marvel fan, but this whole "haha, I'm better than Marvel fans" relates to something I've been musing on about media analysis as a whole. There is a persistent idea that mass entertainment is inherently lower quality or less artistic because it's made for a wide audience, and that bad art isn't worth analyzing or engaging with just because it's low quality. In this mindset, the only art that has the possibility to be any good at all is 100% independent projects made by amateurs, and anything produced by a studio or with wide appeal is inherently poser art with absolutely nothing meaningful to say. In this mindset, you can't possibly learn anything or take anything from bad art, and if you find meaning in bad art, you're clearly just stupid and uneducated and have bad taste.

The thing is? Liking bad art is not a sin. Having a different opinion about what constitutes "bad art" is not a sin. Finding something entertaining despite its flaws is not a sin. Studying bad art is not a sin. You can learn a lot from bad art, you can learn a lot from interpreting propaganda, you can learn a lot from engaging with things even if you don't think they're very "good."

My vaudeville research keeps turning up author after author who talks about vaudeville as some sort of "point of no return," like the performing arts all turned to shit the second things were intended to be seen by more than a single audience for a single show. Popularity gets equated with lack of skill or quality, because all the performers were "just pandering to the audience" instead of relying on "real skill."

For one, what the fuck does that even mean, but for two, the theatrical quality of vaudeville isn't what makes it interesting and worth engaging with. Every single thing that ever came out of vaudeville could be 100% total utter garbage, but vaudeville would still be worth studying because of how influential it still is on arts and entertainment today. It has significant historical and educational merit. And some of it is still genuinely fun and entertaining, once you pick out all the things that didn't age well or were just plain bigoted. There's artistic merit in those old sketches and songs, and there's meaning to be drawn from plenty of it even here in 2023.

You want to learn about the Hays Code? Well, let's talk about how early films were shown on projectors on vaudeville stages, so vaudeville censorship went on to influence American film censorship. Let's talk about how we still use slang to this day that originated on vaudeville, such as "skit" or "one night stand" or "ad lib" or "the big time." Vaudeville is still in the bones of the modern American entertainment industry and pop culture, and you can't really escape that influence.

People in modern day use Marvel movies as proof that big studio films are singlehandedly responsible for the decline of art, and there is nothing to learn from them or see in them at all, ever. But to me, "Marvel movies are bad" is such a flat, uninteresting observation, because when it comes to media analysis, it doesn't really matter if Marvel films are good or entertaining. If you want to actually dig into the problems with big-budget summer Hollywood blockbusters, and the way they're impacting the industry as a whole, you have to go deeper than "pop culture is all stupid stuff for stupid people, unlike me, who isn't like other girls actually has good taste in media!"

There are so many more factors at play than "mass entertainment = bad art." Let's look at the ways capitalism screws over small creators and forces them to seek funding from the very same studios that fuck them over. Let's talk about how the actual workers in the industry are fighting tooth and fucking nail against the exact same things all the Marvel haters harp on about. Let's talk about studios that accept funding from the United States Government to turn superhero comics into propaganda films, and then threaten the actual workers with never having a career again if they complain or quit. Let's talk about how the actors are regularly abused and treated to hostile work environments.

Let's talk about the people who made the films, because the films were not made by a CEO pressing the "make movie" button. The workers made those films. The workers were exploited by those studios. Let's try giving a shit about them, instead of taking the "haha, Marvel fans are stupid and cringe" route.

There is so much more fucking nuance and detail and conversation about mass media as a topic, and boiling it down to, "art made for a wide audience is inherently shitty and has nothing to say."

You're not a better, more intelligent, more educated person just because you don't like Marvel movies. Making posts about how much better you are than Marvel fans does nothing to either explain or tackle the issues in the entertainment industry.

It just makes you look like a dickhead.

Why nothing makes sense part 7.

Wedding edition

Before I start my little post about why nothing makes sense about this whole wedding and marriage thing, I'd like to declare that I'm not saying or stating that they haven't gotten married or that there wasn't a wedding; this is simply about why nothing makes sense about it.

So the whole wedding debate started when we saw Dennis (Chris's friend) go public and share in his story that Jamie, Bryan, and Mark were together in a bar. This made people immediately jump to the conclusion that they were there because Chris and Alba would get married. Then people posted that Hemsworth, RDJ, and Renner were at a restaurant. According to someone who said they were part of the group who met Hemsworth and Renner, Hemsworth told them that they were in Boston because of Evans's wedding. This was immediately really weird to me, since I doubt Hemsworth would've told random strangers that they were getting married. Chris and Alba didn't talk about getting married publicly, so it was a secret. The public didn't know about the wedding date, if they were engaged, or if they were going to get married. I'm pretty sure Hemsworth knew about this and wouldn't spill any tea, especially to complete strangers. Then things were silent until Dennis went public again and posted a picture of himself and his wife dressed up elegantly. This, again, fueled the fire.

After all of these, we got the Page Six article about them reportedly being married. Obviously, after that, almost every outlet ran with this news and posted their own article, everybody quoting Page Six, even People. Page Six wrote that those who attended the wedding had to sign an NDA and couldn't have their phones with them. This whole NDA thing sounds so interesting to me. We talked about Hemsworth spilling that they are getting married, and I said that I don't think he would do that to a friend, but the fact that he even signed an NDA makes the whole thing even less sensible. I also found the phone thing very interesting. Does that mean he doesn't trust his friends? If they knew they were going to sell the story and share breadcrumbs of it, and even of the second wedding, why couldn't the guests have their phones? So they can control what, when, and how it gets out? So we know that according to the source, they had a private wedding and only invited their close family and friends, yet there were several people missing. I missed Scarlett, Octavia, Mackie, Seb, and from her side, her cousin, who was on vacation with her entire family. Every article mentioned the Avengers, his Marvel co-star being there, but what about those close family members? Why wasn't there any mention of them? According to the article, Emily and John were also there, but I don't think they were actually there. They only mentioned her because they have a movie together.

After people found Scarlett's non-presence weird, they posted an article saying they saw Scarlett and Robert together in Boston. It's really interesting that this article was published after people questioned her whereabouts, and it's also really interesting that there were no sightings of her. So people saw the other Avengers out together in a restaurant and took pictures of them, and even if just one person saw Scar and Robert out, I doubt they wouldn't have taken a picture of those two.

Talking about sightings. Why did nobody see or hear the wedding? I'm not even talking about pictures, but like a DM anon, a blind item, or somebody tweeting something about it. People see him walking Dodger and doing everyday stuff, but nobody sees anything unusual; nobody spots the avenger there? No matter which house or location we are talking about, it's weird that nobody saw, heard, or witnessed anything.

We also have some problems with the location. So Page Six said the ceremony took place in Massachusetts, at their Boston-area home, while People said the wedding was in Cape Cod. While both places are in Massachusetts, they aren't really close to each other. People also said that Hemsworth, Downey, and their wives were photographed having dinner, which we all know is not true because it was his mom. Was Elsa at the wedding? Probably not, and why was his mom there when she doesn't even know Evans or anybody else there? Who knows. Then we got another article from People saying that they were serious very quickly; this was another source exclusive. In this article, the place of the wedding was still Cape Cod. Then there was another People article that said that they had a party in his Boston-area home to celebrate their marriage. According to another exclusive source "a large tent and dance floor were set up at the house", we know this must have been someone who was there because, as I've already mentioned, nobody sent an anon to DM, came to Tumblr, tweeted, or wrote a blind item that they saw, heard, or witnessed anything wedding-related. This article was published on the 12th, which is basically three days after the wedding. People said that the wedding weekend also included a gathering in Cape Cod, which is such an interesting wording since I don't think anybody would call a wedding a "gathering". A wedding is a wedding to me. Here they again said that Elsa was also there, which is still interesting since in the restaurant that was most definitely Hemsworth's mom, not wife. So why wasn't Elsa there? Where was she? And what was Hemsworth's mom doing there in the first place? On the same day, Page Six posted another article where they referred to the People article about the Boston party. Page Six said that the main wedding celebration was in Boston, yet they had another gathering in Cape Cod. So it seems like they still couldn't decide where the wedding was.

I doubt they would've had two gatherings or that they would've held the wedding and the party at a different spot. The Cape Cod private estate would've been perfect, maybe even a better choice for the party, but they definitely could've just gotten married and had a party at his Boston-area home. I didn't really understand why they would've wanted to hold the ceremony and the party in different places, especially since both Concord and Carlisle are almost like a 2-hour car ride from Cape Cod.

The last article we've gotten so far about them was the Portugal wedding one by Page Six. According to another source, there will be a second wedding in Portugal for her family, which is weird since most of them, those who are really important to her, definitely could've attended the MA one. The source called this one also a "gathering" and didn't even know when it would actually be, just that it was going to be "sometimes this week".

The only constant thing in these articles was "Reps for both actors did not immediately respond to XY's request for comment."

The last article was posted on September 12th, and after that, there was no article, but his friends started posting from Portugal. Other than Dennis, I wouldn't say anybody too interesting posted. It's really weird that the Page Six/People articles stopped before his friends started sharing breadcrumbs that they were all there in PT. So we've seen at least one story shared by at least one of them since that day. I know what some people say: "Maybe they just wanted to share some pictures about the places they had been", which I'd understand if this wasn't supposed to be a private wedding and if they weren't a private couple. I'd assume that Chris had asked them to keep it low, at least until they aren't back in the States, but as of right now, it seems like Chris has asked them exactly the opposite.

My other question about this whole PT thing is why they haven't been spotted by someone. So you want to tell me that Chris is in PT, even after he married someone, and that someone happens to be quite well known in PT, and still nothing? Are they hiding in their hotel room? Are they never going out? Or nobody saw, heard, or witnessed anything wedding-related? Why is nobody seeing or hearing anything?

Something else that is really interesting to me is that only his friends are part of this breadcrumbing. Not the closest ones, or those who've already been part of this like Tara or Chelsea, but those are known enough so people will check their pages and stories, especially since Bryan (the wedding planner, followed by Scott) posted that story of him having drinks with a woman and a man, which started the whole PT wedding fire. It seems like only his friends are "allowed" or rather asked to post something about their whereabouts, so people will keep talking about their PT wedding. I guess Chris only trusts his friends to spread the narrative.

So according to Page Six, the wedding happened on September 9th. To me, this date is also weird. So the article about Pain Hustlers premiering in Toronto came out on July 24.

According to the official site, the premiere would've been on the 11th, so only like 2 days after the wedding and a few days prior to the Portugal one.

However, on the site, there are several events on September 12 and on September 15, so on the Portugal wedding week.

While we only got to know this on July 24, I'm 100% sure Chris and Emily knew way before that they would need to go to TIFF and be there, maybe even before they started organizing a wedding, which is not a few months thing, so they most definitely needed to start doing it much before even the strike started on July 14th.

So on July 14th, Chris and Emily were informed that they probably wouldn't be able to attend TIFF or do any type of press for the movie. The movie comes out on October 27th, and after TIFF, they probably would've needed to do several interviews, and just like with TGM, maybe they also would've needed to attend several red carpet events in the States and in Europe. What I want to say is that I find it very unlikely that this was the original date of their wedding. Maybe they were supposed to get married prior to PH or after (I think I'd rather say after), but why did they change the date? Why? Why were they in such a rush? They had not even 2 months from July 14 to September 9, and by July they probably sent out the invitations, booked a caterer, chellist, violinist, or whatever to the original date, and ordered a cake to that original date. So they called up every person they invited, every person who was involved in the wedding, to let them know they changed the date and the wedding would be earlier? And in this case, we don't even just talk about one wedding, but two. I get that he is a huge star, but I doubt that people would've been really happy about him just casually changing the wedding date since this most definitely wasn't the original one and since he wouldn't and probably couldn't have been able to miss TIFF and his other responsibilities tied to Pain Hustlers.

Page Six also said they are off to their honeymoon after the Portugal wedding, but if this was the original, he couldn't have gone on a honeymoon since he would have had a movie to promote. We don't know where they are going for a honeymoon, but even if they are going with a private plane, they need to stay somewhere, which, again, they probably booked prior to everything, so they would've had a ton of problems with that one too.

It's really interesting that they said they had a private wedding, people needed to sign NDAs, and they couldn't have their phones, yet there were several articles about them almost every single day. I don't think these were actual people who were at the wedding or who knew them; it was most likely his team. It made me really think about why two people who are so in love and happier than ever and just got married need this much traffic and attention, especially when they know that people don't really like them together. I'd assume they would want to keep their marriage to themselves; they don't want people to talk about it and gossip about it because it's something personal and intimate for them. That their friends would help them keep it secret and wouldn't post breadcrumbs that something might be happening. Chris had always been a quiet guy, especially when it came to his romantic relationships. I remember that almost everybody agreed that if he gets married, we probably won't even know that he's been dating someone until after the wedding. Or that he won't even announce anything, that there won't be articles and breadcrumbs, just him appearing with his wife somewhere or mentioning it in an interview. And now here we are, his friends sharing breadcrumbs, several articles out every single day. I'd assume that, just like in the past, he would want to protect his and his partner's privacy, that he would want to keep their personal moments for themselves, especially in this situation when he knows, and both of them know, that a lot of people don't like them being together,and they get a lot of hate, that a lot of people think they look weird, unnatural, and totally not in love. It seems like they are trying to sell the wedding, that they are trying to sell "we are so happy together", but are they trying to convince us or themselves that they are happy together? Because if you need to prove something this much-if you need to prove this hard that you're so happy-then you probably are not.

Hope you're well =)

Maya and Carinas Daughter go on a field trip to a high ropes course that also offers rock climbing. Carina is one of the chaperons. the class arrives to the destination, and getting harnessed up. there are different levels of rock climbing, beginner, medium, and expert and professional free climb which doesn't require you to have a harness.

Through out the ropes course (Daughter) and a few others are getting bored with how easy it was. they want more of a challenge. the few kids slip from the group and make their way to the free climb. the free climb is an "At your own risk" mountain. with only a rope harness (But no rope) they make their way up to rock mountain until they realize how high it goes and how much easier it is to go up than down. panic starts to set and Carina starts to notice that kids are missing including their daughter.

their daughter slips and gets caught on a divot in the mountain. First responders have to be called. (Maya enters the story)

!!!If you aren't interested in writing this its no worries please let me know so I can't try and write it :)!!!

ᕚ---ᕘ

Sunshine and pent-up warm air penetrated the dense leaves of the trees and made the forest surrounding the high ropes course shine in an autumnal light. A group of excited young people and all the accompanying people, including Carina, who had volunteered, entered the area.

The smell of fresh resin and wet grass hung in the air and the tall climbing poles rose into the sky, ropes snaked between the treetops, and the students marveled and whispered as they saw the challenges before them.

“Good morning, dear class,” the instructors greeted the group and quickly explained the safety guidelines. Carina listened intently as she heard the details about the different courses and the possibility of climbing without safety harnesses. The students were divided into small groups and began to equip themselves with helmets and harnesses.

After a short briefing you began the climb. As usual, you and your gang formed a group and excitedly stood at the base of a 131-foot-tall climbing pole - the largest parkour you could do in this high ropes course. The colorful climbing holds and ropes magically attracted you and your mother watched you with a mix of pride and nervousness and bated breath as you fought your way up step by step. The branches swayed slightly and the ropes creaked softly as you found your way and the heart in the brunette's chest beat faster as she followed your every move.

After about three quarters of an hour, you finally reached the end and amusedly spread your arms to enjoy the feeling of victory. Your friends cheered and applauded and Carina couldn't help but smile when she saw how happy you looked.

But your initial enthusiasm gave way to noticeable boredom. Even the hardest parkour seemed too easy, and your group was looking for a greater challenge. "Is that all? That was boring," you sighed, leaning against a tree as you felt the ground beneath your feet. Your best friend nodded in agreement. "We need something more exciting. Let's get to that pro parkour."

Your eyes lit up but immediately went dark again as you looked around. "Mr. Andersson strictly forbade us to use this parkour," your friend spoke from the other side as she rappelled down. You all just shrugged your shoulders and during a brief distraction, you quietly slipped away from the group to look for more adventure on your own. You were drawn to the idea of an “at your own risk” mountain that promised a thrill.

The path to the mountain, less than 500 meters further, was steep and surrounded by dense greenery. You climbed over rocks and through thick bushes until you finally reached the foot of the mountain wall. You led the group as you laboriously worked your way up the steep wall. The air became thinner and the effort became more and more demanding. "It's really tiring but the view from the top will be worth it!" your best friend gasped, winking at you before sneaking past you to get upstairs faster.

When you reached the top, a breathtaking view spread across the landscape. However, the joy of success was soon overshadowed by a feeling of trepidation as you realized how much easier the climb had been compared to what lay ahead: the descent.

A slight panic spread among you as you realized the steep descent and the risk of a fall without safety equipment. The carefree excitement gave way to the realization that you had gotten yourself into a dangerous situation. You, who was normally full of courage, felt fear rising in your stomach.

Meanwhile, your mother noticed that you and some of your friends were no longer on the high ropes course. "Y/n! Ava! Mason!" An uneasy feeling ran through her as she began to call your names, but her shouts were swallowed up by the trees. The other chaperones and teachers looked around, but there was no sign of you or your friends. "What's wrong, Carina?" a father of another student asked worriedly, walking towards her to get more certainty. "I think some children are missing. Including my daughter, I haven't seen her in a while."

A touch of fear rose in her when some students moved towards her shortly after and told her that they last saw you disappearing towards the mountain and together with the other parents and teachers, she set off to look for you.

ᕚ---ᕘ

Your friends and you struggled on the mountain with your fear of the descent, unaware that the search for you had already begun. Each step down seemed more dangerous than the last and your upper arms trembled from the force you had to exert and the fear that permeated you. The steep slopes and loose rocks weighed heavily on you and you tried to stay calm, but the uncertainty was heavy in the air. "I don't know if we can do it. It's way too steep," you whispered to yourself, swallowing hard as you dared to look down.

The mountain path was steeper and more challenging than expected and you were cautiously trying to negotiate the middle section when you suddenly slipped and fell into a small but deep ditch lined with brush and rocks. Your impact was cushioned by a tree stump, but you remained stuck with a painful groan, unable to move.

"Y/n!! Are you okay? Answer us, please!" Your friend called down worriedly, hoping for an answer from you. She couldn't see or hear you and the fear that you were seriously injured weighed heavily on her chest. "No. I can't move. I can't feel my legs," you replied in a shaky voice, clenching your teeth to suppress the pain in your upper body.

Panic gripped the group when they saw that you were in a threatening situation. You were injured, probably to your spine, and unable to free yourself. "We need to get help. HELP!" your best friend shouted and as they screamed for help every second, you struggled to stay calm even though fear and pain overwhelmed you.

Carina and the others who were already looking for you heard the scream and realized the seriousness of the situation. She quickly ran towards the mountain and when she got there, she saw two people hanging on the cliff - but there was no sign of you. "Ava, Mason. Are you okay?"

Hearing voices from below, the two felt a sense of relief at the prospect of help. "We're up here but y/n fell and is probably seriously injured in the ditch below us. She can't feel her legs and we can't hear her anymore!"

Both your mother and the other people rushed over to help, but they were also aware that they couldn't get you out of this situation without professional help. At the moment when Carina was desperately looking for a solution, she pulled out her cell phone and dialed Maya, who was currently working her shift at Station 19.

Briefly describing the situation, her voice full of worry and fear, the blonde promised to come to the location with the team immediately in order to save their daughter. Her face showed concern and determination as she took in the scene before her, unable to do anything that could help her daughter. She didn't have the climbing skills to get to the ditch at a height of several meters and from down here she got no answer to her calls.

Less than fifteen minutes later, a woman stepped through the trees. It was Maya. Her expression was serious and yet you could clearly see the concern. "What happened?" She asked quickly as she approached with a stretcher.

Carina quickly explained the situation again and her team immediately jumped into action. Her trained eyes analyzed the situation as she began to give instructions to her people to get you safely out of the ditch. "Y/n, it's me, Mom. If you can hear me- stay calm. Gibson and Warren will get you out of there," Maya spoke in a calm voice as she began to use her equipment and experience as a captain.

The other youth and chaperones helped by following instructions and providing Maya with whatever she needed and could find. "You're doing great, darling. We'll get you out of there soon, don't worry," she continued calmly as she carefully assessed the situation, knowing she wouldn't get an answer. However, she wanted you to know that she was there and that you were not alone when you were conscious but unable to speak.

It was a laborious process, but eventually Gibson and Warren managed to carefully free you from the ditch and slowly bring you down with the lift and turntable ladder while Hughes and Travis secured the others and brought them down. The relief in the air was palpable when they finally had you lying on solid ground.

“Y/n, where is your pain?” Warren asked worriedly as he checked your body for injuries. Carina's heart skipped a beat and without hesitation, her legs moved as if fueled by adrenaline. She sprinted over to you, Maya in tow. "My back and my arm hurts," you replied with a shaky voice, but a smile crossed your face when you saw both of your mothers.

Carina was overwhelmed with gratitude and relief as she watched the two men use their expertise to help you. She and Gibson's eyes met and they nodded silently at each other, knowing that she was overjoyed that he had ensured your safety.

"You're going to the hospital now and you'll be taken care of. We'll be with you the whole time," the blonde whispered in a calm but firm voice and spoke more soothing words to stabilize you. Her hand reached for yours and you managed to grasp it securely.

The adrenaline of the two women smoked in their ears as they carefully looked after you. The students and instructors gathered around you and watched eagerly. A collective sigh of relief and applause echoed through the forest. "Mom, I'm scared."

"It'll be okay, please don't worry and don't move, Bella," Carina spoke to you carefully while Hughes and Warren provided further medical care. Carina got into the ambulance with you to accompany you to the hospital while Maya joined Warren in the passenger seat. "I'm sorry, Mom. It was so stupid of us,"

Carina brushed your disheveled hair away from your face and spoke to you seriously but lovingly about the dangers of your decision. You were relieved, but also deeply affected by the negative experiences you had. It was an important lesson that you would definitely never forget. It was a reminder of the importance of caution and knowledge in an environment that presented challenges and dangers.

Out of the Blue || Sherlock Holmes x F!Reader

Warnings: Fem!Reader, cold open, a small argument? There's (1) kiss.

Summary: Sherlock watches you from his chair, trying to woo you in the best way he can think of.

Request: Not really a request, but I would like to say this is especially for @goldencherriess!

“Sherlock, stop staring at me,” Y/N asked kindly. She turned the next page of her book with little notice of him. “I’m not that exciting. I just got a new shirt.”

Sherlock was sitting in his chair, studying his friend. She had always been an interesting roommate. She had always confused him, ever since she had joined the living space John had once occupied. She never did anything how she was supposed to. True, all the things she did were technically traditional and average, but she did it with so much charisma that he couldn’t stop watching. 

“Those who say such things rarely ever know how exciting they truly are,” he murmured, sitting forward. Her nose shaped itself so interestingly; her eyes were such a lovely shade. She was aesthetically pleasing. Quite beautiful, in his opinion. Second only to Irene Adler in looks; most average men would appreciate a plainer beauty simply for the fact that they were less intimidating than a dominatrix.

“Why am I so exciting, then?” she mused, hardly paying attention. She ran a hand over her forehead in concentration of her story. It was probably another mystery romance — the kind where the detective falls for the last person on earth he’d expected to. 

The kind Sherlock was starting to feel an affinity for.

He had been borrowing Y/N’s books lately. Reading them well into the small hours of the morning and hiding them under his mattress when she went looking for them. He wanted to see how her mind worked, how she thought. It was all he could think about on their off days. It kept his boredom at bay, but it also drove him insane with curiosity. 

“You’re a marvel. I can’t understand what makes you linger for so long in my mind — it’s never happened before.” He tilted his head as he ran the numbers, scenarios, calculations in his mind. It made no sense. His heartbeat picked up. His palms felt clammy. He kept wanting to watch her, and he had an inkling of why, but he knew it was silly. He had never felt that way for anyone, before, and it certainly wouldn’t be now. 

Still, he continued. 

“You’re totally average, and yet I can’t stop thinking about you. Your hair, your choice of makeup, your reading choices… It isn’t as if you’re particularly brilliant or special,” he mused, squinted his eyes as he thought deeper about the subject.  “Somehow, you’ve tricked my brain into thinking so.”

She finally snapped her face up. “Sherlock, enough,” she chided. “It isn’t funny.”

“I don’t joke.” He sat back. 

Y/N rolled her eyes. “You don’t mean it, though. You do your silly little mind games to mess with people.”

Sherlock’s heart thumped once or twice but kept his face unchanging. He set his temple on his fist. “What would I gain by telling you I admire you? I already know I can seduce anyone I please — I’ve made the Woman fall for me.”

“Don’t be arrogant.” She closed her book, now, setting it onto the side table. “And stop this. It isn’t kind.” Things were escalating from amused to serious — she had changed her sitting position. Before, her legs had been tucked underneath her, and now they were on the floor in front of her. Her chest rose and fell higher and faster than before. He was trying to woo her, but instead he was just upsetting her. 

He wanted to ignore the accusation. His teeth ground together despite his best efforts. “You should trust me.”

“I know what happened with the Woman, that Janine, and Molly Hooper,” Y/N continued sharply. She turned her head away, seemingly unable to even keep eye contact. “You find out someone’s deeply in love with you, and then you mock them for it. I should have done better to hide it.” 

That sentence made no sense to him. It didn’t even have any backing evidence. You had never once shown him any signs. No warmth to your skin when he touched it. No quickening heart rate. Your eyes always looked the same — blown with wonder, but that had been since day one. 

“You’re not ‘deeply in love’ with me,” he said automatically. His breath caught in his throat, unsure if it should turn into more words or stay as a gasp. “You’ve got none of the symptoms of sentiment. You’ve never been in love with anyone since I’ve met you.”

Slowly, he stood. She couldn’t have been lying, but there was no possible way for her to be telling the truth. Seemingly, this had come out of the blue for him. Really, it was his own fault for letting sentiment creep into his life, but it wasn’t like he would miss the signs of someone falling for him. He had played the game before. He had played it exactly three times in his life before this:

Once, a girl named Dinah back in University. She was American, studying to be a psychiatrist. She was originally impressed with Sherlock’s ability to cold-read people. He had once taken her interest in his brain as an invitation to get closer, but they soon grew to hate each other. Whilst mutual feelings existed, they never became anything of importance. She was now married to a construction worker in New York.

Then, there was a woman named Rachel Kingsley. They had known each other for exactly six months, three weeks, two days, and one hour before their eventual chemistry had overtaken both of them. They didn’t fall apart, exactly, but Sherlock and Rachel wanted different things in life. At that point, he had refused to ever consider marriage and she wanted to be a bride. Instead of leading her on any further, he broke their connection after another year. That was why he was looking for a flat.

That was how he met John, the only love in his life he would freely admit. His brother, by choice rather than by blood.

The third time he had played the game was with the Woman. Everyone knew how that round went.

Sherlock still hadn’t won, yet. 

“You can’t be that stupid,” she shot back, slapping her hands over her mouth after she said that. The fear in her eyes could be felt in Sherlock’s own stomach. He felt nauseous. 

He wasn’t supposed to be weak in situations like this. He was supposed to be in control. 

“Stupidity and ignorance aren’t really my area,” he said, cocking his head as he tried to process everything. “And you wear your heart on your sleeve, so that declaration of yours can’t be true. I know you, Y/N, and I know that once you eliminate the impossible, whatever improbable remains, must be the truth. This is impossible.”

“William Sherlock Scott,” she said, rising out of her chair. They were parallel now. Only inches away from each other. He could touch her, if he wanted, close the mere centimeters between them, now. 

“Y/N,” he whispered, suddenly lost in the way her eyes blazed into him. He knew he was a fool, but he still hadn’t lost his capability. 

“You have no idea what I feel, do you?” she asked, narrowing her eyes at him. “No idea. You’re so lost in that little palace in your head that you don’t know what it could possibly be like for someone to love you without fawning over you. I remember Irene; even she had to talk you up for you to really notice her.”

“That’s not true,” he said, unsure to which part he was protesting against. Either way, he knew it was half-hearted. He floated closer to her face — he could grab it, if he wanted, and let her know his affections were real. It was a logical step, in the emotional sense. But it was also logical to leave it alone. 

“Isn’t it?” she sighed. She tried to push past him, but he grabbed her by the arms and stopped her.

“I care,” he said sharply, pleadingly. 

“I know you, Sherlock,” she whispered, setting her hands on his chest. She looked ready to cry. “You don’t love people that way. You never have… and then you behave this way out of the blue and tell me lies.” She buried her face in his chest. “It’s not… It’s not nice.”

“I thought I told you already,” he said in a strained voice. He pulled her back just enough to see her face. “I’ve certainly not kept silent.”

“Have you told John?” She said as if he would be the catch-all. 

He shook his head, pulling back from her. “No; it isn’t his business. It wasn’t, anyway.”

Y/N hiccupped. “This is your last chance to admit you’re just playing a prank. Because you don’t play pranks like this, Sherlock!” 

He rolled his eyes. “Don’t get hysterical, darling,” he said, cupping her face. “It’s not becoming of a woman as fine as yourself.”

“Don’t get hysterical?” she squawked, trying to rip his hands off her face. “Don’t you tell me about being hysterical—”

He swiftly kissed her, making sure to cradle her head and guide her back down toward her chair. She clung to him immediately, hands threading themselves through his hair deliciously. When she was comfortable in the chair, he anchored his hands against the arms of the chair and kept kissing her deeper and deeper.

When they both ran out of breath, he was the first one to break the kiss. He opened his eyes, studying her expression as she sat, lost in what had just happened. They panted and then started laughing together. 

“That was awfully silly of us,” Sherlock admitted as she finally smiled and put her arms around his neck. “It won’t happen again.”

“Are you saying you’re in love with me?” she asked quietly, becoming nervous. “I know I said it, but…”

“I would say that would be the most accurate description,” he said, smirking at that. “It’s not too out of the blue for you, is it?”

She shook her head. “No,” she laughed. “It’s not.”

Family of Heroes 🪪 | Everett Ross Heacanon

Link to my Marvel masterlist

Requested 📨 yes/no (rules for requests)

Having a family with Everett Ross would look like:

So if you’re an avenger/shield agent and fall in love with the silver fox that is Agent Everett Ross then there is no hiding the world of heroes from your children. After getting married/being partners for a long time you both eventually have/adopt a couple of kids and raise them in the New York/Quantico area.

Considering they grew up with parents who were federal agents, they were likely drawn to the field of criminology, intelligence, security, etc. Or possibly were talented when it came to mechanics, math, physics. Either which way you’re kids were top of their classes and managed to attend some of the most prestigious schools in the county. MIT, NYU, Cornell would be knocking on y’all’s door with scholarships and grants just to have your kids attend.

If you’re living in New York then they’d attend Midtown with Peter, MJ, and Ned. Of course with Peter being Spider-Man and knowing you, there’s a chance your kids knew his secret before the others. Hell, wouldn’t be surprised if Peter may have fanboyed when he learned that you were the parent of his friends. “That’s so cool your parents are agents—and one is an avenger!” “Only thing that sucks about it is I can never hide anything. Bad grades, relationships, sneaking out at night. They’ll always know.”

I can see you having a daughter who was like Everett with passions for intelligence. She’d come to his office just to watch him work and get a feel of what it was like to be an agent. When it came to intuition she was a natural at catching when something was suspicious. She was also great at analyzing—whether it be data, a crime scene, or body language.

Your son would have interests similar to you—wanting to be in the field or creating inventions that gave him abilities. He was very hands on, loved working on cars or building things from scratch. Don’t be surprised if he noted Bruce Banner or Tony Stark as his idols.

If your kids were into sports you’d go to every game. If they loved the arts you went to every performance, gallery, recital. Sometimes you’d be running late because of work, but you always made it up to them by taking them out to dinner or ice cream to get that quality time in. It was hard being a superhero and raising children, but with Ev by your side you both were able to put a healthy balance on things.

Early on your children were taught self-defense. Boxing, marital arts, how to disarm someone, and everything in between that would help them kick someone’s ass if they were attacked. Being that you and Everett’s jobs come with enemies there is always that risk they would target your kids. “You must be quick and sharp—anything less will give them the advantage.” “You know,” *catches breath* “This is really some parent-child bonding you got going on.” “Quality time, training, and life lessons all wrapped into one. Ain’t that something.”

When the topic of your kids joining the Young Avengers arose, you both were very hesitant. They were in college or about to graduate and your daughter had even applied for the CIA with your son building a prototype suit. It got the attention of a lot of people and you were already dealing with the stress of the Thunderbolts forming. “They are kids, Everett! They cannot handle the things we see—at least not yet!” “Believe me, honey, I agree with you. But they are technically adults and it’s not like they’ll be alone. They want us, Sam, Strange, Carol and Okoye to supervise them.” It did little to ease your worry, but at least you’d have some say in the matters.

No longer were you and Ev just their parents, but also their bosses. You both had control along with the other Avengers over whether or not the Young Avengers would get involved in conflicts. First thing that took place of course was months of training and teaching the kids (even if they were adults you still looked at them as kids) what and what not to do in a situation. Last thing y’all wanted was another Accords scenario.

“C’mon send us out! We can help you guys!” “You know the deal—once you pass your field exams then you can do missions. Until then you’re grounded here.”

“If Hydra’s been behind it the whole time then does that mean you guys didn’t check to see that you got them all in 2015?” “Honey, please, do not remind me because I’ll only get angry—not at you but at the situation. I need to have a word with Fury on what the hell went wrong.”

While you may be strict with the Young Avengers, best believe if someone insulted, attacked, or patronizing toward them you’d go ape shit. Oh and if Secretary Ross were to try something….Let’s just say Everett once had to pull you back from doing something that would’ve had you arrested. “He doesn’t have the right to get involved in what they do—or threaten them with prison after they saved the world!” “And don’t give him the satisfaction of locking you up, Y/n. You know he’s waiting for us to step out of line.”

If there is one thing the government realized quick when you and Everett decided to expand the Ross’ legacy, is to never underestimate a family full of heroes.

Blue Beetle was a fun movie with a great cast! You should go see it if superheroes are your thing, Jaime deserves it! It does stick close to the superhero origin formula in a lot of ways, but the chemistry between the cast, the focus on some heavier themes, and the fact Jaime's family was extremely involved throughout the entire movie kept it really entertaining.

Quick rundown of things I really liked and some not so liked things:

Liked:

-Jaime's family, but especially Nana the revolutionary. I loved that each of them got a moment to shine

-Harvey Guillen's De La Cruz-verse

-The Scarab learning Spanish was so adorable!

-Jaime's Mom getting a 'kick their asses' moment like in the comics and also talking directly to the scarab.

-When Kord cops went after Jaime's family it was really well done. You could feel the terror there.

-The heart to heart moments were also all well done

-Just Jaime in general as a character. They kept him sweet and relatable.

-It had a solid character arc and focus on characters, which is a miracle in the modern superhero landscape

-Honestly tragic villain backstory flashbacks usually don't get to me, but they handled this one really well. It hit hard.

-A movie that truly understand 'don't trust the cops' and 'there's no jobs in this economy, especially for minorities." The reference to the fact there were undocumented people in Jaime's family was also well done, and contrasted the original comic never really taking a stance on that.

-the fact that Jaime was so against killing people but his family absolutely wasn't and racked up a massive body count was lowkey very funny.

-Victoria was definitely hateable, glad she died.

Some stuff I'm like 'hm that wasn't a great change':

-I don't understand why they put cliche superhero beats that aren't even in the source material in this. Jaime's dad didn't have to die. He doesn't in the comics and that's what made his comic different. He didn't have a tragic classic superhero origin. Why give him one and make him MORE like everyone else?

-Also the fact the villain amounts to 'Blue Beetle and...Antagonist Blue Beetle' like 99% of Marvel villains. I think this was used a lot more meaningfully than most examples of the trope, but it's still overdone. They could have had a similar character but given him different powers than Blue Beetle that he was experimented on to have, something that would be difficult for him to go up against and give contrast. Or picked a villain from the comics. There were a ton of options.

-the girlfriend/Ted's daughter character was very bleh, which is a shame, because the original comic had really fun female characters outside Jaime's family as well as inside. The movie is still better than male superhero origins in the female character department overall because the women inside Jaime's family are so cool, it just sucks they couldn't have a love interest with a vibrant personality too. Her sad rich girl schtick just wasn't compelling.

-There was barely any conflict between Jaime and the scarab, compared to the comic, where it was like...the main thing. Jaime was just like "hey don't kill people' and the khaji da was like 'okay' pretty easily. I don't get why they didn't explore that a lot more, because 'trying to bond with something programmed to kill and deprogram it' is so meaningful and could lead to some really fun comedy too? The lack of struggle also made the reversal they pulled at the end less meaningful.

-Honestly I personally didn't need so much about Ted, let Jaime stand on his own for the first movie with Ted being mentioned a few times and leave the discoveries about Ted for later movies. I'm probs in the minority there!!! I like Ted, but this is about Jaime. It also kinda sucks they made Ted a bad dad with a fridged wife.

-I also think they shouldn't have made Victoria a victim of sexism, i guess they were trying to give her a sympathetic quality or something, but it didn't work. "She was passed over for the company because of sexism but that turned out to be a good thing" is kind of like...idk why is that there.

-Harvey Guillen died :(

But overall, solid movie, and I hope they get to do more.

Documentation of my comphet throughout the years 🧍‍♀️

Okay so I thought it’d be funny to talk abt my most intense male fixation eras as a lesbian (idk i’m just shitposting into the void again) judge me all u want (it is probably needed) but i need ppl to understand the real me 🙏

IT CROPPED HALF HIS FACE OUT but i just realised if you aren’t british ur gonna have no idea who he is anyone (he’s lachlan white from emmerdale) omg this was an ERA everyone around me thought i was going insane (i was) but like they just didn’t get it he slayed so hard at a level that will never be reached (literally) also tom atkinson on sex education was like a full circle moment for me omg but anyways i was like 11-12 here these were literally my formative years this changed me FOREVER don’t judge he slayed omg

THIS okay so u can’t even blame me for this one it’s just correct. yes he’s like walking masculinity stereotype BUT he also had depth and was interesting 😌 the fanfics were SO GOOD this is when i really got into fanfiction and accidentally read smut where someone get pregnant in the hunger games 🧍‍♀️i read this one fic that was like x reader AND THEY STRAIGHT UP BOTH DIED but anyways. i read fanfics abt literally everyone thg character (read abt women and convinced myself i was still straight lmfao) but he was the stand out for me. i recently revisited this era and the fics ppl write on ao3 r INSANE omg like what is wrong with u ppl ( i say this lovingly but also wtf )

OMGOMGOMG BEST ERA OF MY LIFE u actually don’t understand u just had to be there. a solid percentage of my brain even to this day is made up of this man. this is like the stupidest thing ever but when i was like 14 i would just mirror his personality (and tone down the arsehole part obvs) so that i could get more talkative AND IT ACTUALLY WORKED nobody in the whole world will ever understand how much he means to me (i don’t rly understand it myself tbh) and ik ppl literally fuckinf despise him but i will not tolerate the dandy mott slander bc he is literally part of my core identity atp i revisit him every few months just to fully reconnect with my inner being. did anyone read Companion? that shit was crazy also i wrote a fic abt him on wattpad and people actually READ IT so anyways best era of my life it truly never got better i rly hit me peak (i had 0 friends) the few friends i had literally told me i talked abt him too much and it made them like me less 💀

this was arguably my most chill era like yea i was pretty obsessive but with marvel it’s so normalised to be so intense abt everything i kinda just fit right in. there’s too much professor fanfiction r u ppl okay 🧍‍♀️ also more actor fanfiction than i have ever seen for any other man in my LIFE but the capitalism went hard during this era the fluff was so good. arguably my most comforting era? idk i can’t rly explain that one

okay so these two r kinda completely different but also (for obvious reasons) the exact same. gotham was my most openly gay era and for that i will forever be grateful HOWEVER the kristen kringle haters were doing WAY TOO MUCH like she’s already dead why u doing her like that constantly (u will see this sentiment echoed later abt someone else hmmm i wonder who) but yea and then YES i was a paul dano lesbian (literally wasn’t out as lesbian at this point lmao) honestly this is probably the era my friends hated the most they would either awkwardly pretend to agree/care abt the shit i was saying or straight up tell me i was delusional 💀 my friends even now still call it my worst era but i LOVED IT kinda solidified my position at the bottom of the hellish secondary school hierarchy but i still had a good time. the paul dani riddler fanfics r next level tho the way ppl would just post STALKER fics constantly with like zero warnings and it was never labelled as yandere 🧍‍♀️i also got in an argument with a writer on wattpad bc they made the riddler and the oc have like a 6 year age gap and they met when she was 10 and he was like 16 💀 other than that good vibes all round

tbh this era was pretty brief i can’t fully explain what happened here like the vibes were immaculate but also insane WHY IS THERE SM YANDERE FANFIC peter parker is so nice but then in fanfics it’s like 👹 but i rly like spider-man HOWEVER this then led me to my final destination on the comphet journey…

omg were finally at the final stop the peak of comphet ( i came out as lesbian within this era ) arguably not my finest hour bc i swore i would never watch criminal minds bc the number of seasons is WAY TOO MUCH but here we are i watched it bc i read too much fanfic abt this man. i have lots of criticism for the fandom but he in himself is acc a rly good character. this was supposed to be like my ethical era but he’s acc killed like a bunch of ppl and thomas gibson is MESSY (don’t cancel me pls i say that lovingly 🫶) the haley hotchner misogyny nearly killed me off i don’t think i’ve ever been so miserable in a fandom and the fanfics kinda take feminism back a few hundred years but pretty good besides that

anyways there is my brainrot i hope the two (at most) ppl who will read this enjoyed 🫶 LETS GO LESBIANS LETS GO im gonna say i posted this in honour of international lesbian day even tho that was several days ago

#criminal minds #aaron hotchner #dandy mott #american horror story #marvel #loki laufeyson #loki #spider man #the hunger games #emmerdale #the batman #dc #paul dano #the riddler

This post has been popping up on my dash every few days for the past MONTH and it's been kinda annoying me because it's so clear to me that this person does not read comics and is essentially angry over a game of telephone. We can have a conversation about asexual Shatterstar without pretending that FUCKING ROB LIEFELD EVER INTENTIONALLY WENT "today I will make representation for the asexual aromantic people of the world :)". ROB LIEFELD. He was supposed to be a cool emotionless alien warrior dude in Liefeld's eyes. Liefeld was not thinking about his sexuality when creating him in the 90s alongside all of Liefeld's other cool emotionless/angry (insert adjective) warrior dudes with 50 different belt pockets.

Shatterstar was not made bisexual to erase any asexuality. That isn't what happened. Liefeld CLAIMED he was acearo (not using that term, mind you. He just said he would never fuck, essentially, because "he's a Spartan. And not a gay one.") It was accidental coding at best, and it was used most prominently in a homophobic rant to shit on the choice to make him bisexual.

It'd be very cool if Shatterstar was acearo, and maybe he should've been, because acearo people are very, VERY underrepresented in media and there are only a few even slightly prominent asexual characters in comics, all extremely recently confirmed, but Marvel did not make that choice with him and the choice they did made was not to spite asexuality. It was the 2000s, and cishet comic writers from the 2000s barely knew what bisexual people were, much less asexual. That aside, I personally hc him as aspec as well as bisexual, which is definitely something a lot of people id as!

It's like... this person's mad and I get it because there really are so few acearo characters out there but also... please.... Rob Liefeld was not intentionally making rep for anybody outside of insanely jacked usually white guys who wear a shoe size 4 and who never feel any emotion except for :I or angrily screaming.

It's not much, but I recommend reading Gwenpool's Love Unlimited Infinity comic for a sweet story about her coming out as acearo, Conner Hawke's more recent appearances where he's canonized as asexual (and his old ones have similar accidental coding to Shatterstar, if you're interested!!! Again, not intentional, cause like with Shatterstar and Liefeld, a lot of them were written by a homophobe (Dixon) but still!) and the Pride stuff DC and Marvel put out yearly unusually have at least 1 ace story. And hopefully more prominent asexual characters get added/confirmed soon!

Also, don't be aphobic on this post btw. This is me correcting comic history inaccuracies, not shitting on someone for wanting more asexual comic characters.

[box-dwelling]

I've been a fan of Marvellous Mrs Maisel since season 1 but like, the Susie gay stuff is feeling like a real fucking tease. Even with the most recent episode where it finally seems confirmed I feel baited. I'm guessing this is going somewhere with it being the cliff hanger but I just, I don't feel it. And honestly all the cast interviews feel so weird too and always have. Like "oh her sexuality isn't important and we don't have to show it" ok so why are you fucking teasing us with it so much. Why are you getting so close to showing but then not? Like I'd honestly respect it more if Susie was just butch and they never touched it instead of edging us like this. Like haha she went to a gay bar but she still looked super uncomfortable. Ooo she has an ex girlfriend but they never actually say they were dating and they could just be like ex clients. I just feel fucking teased. Commit you god damn cowards. If Susie's sexuality doesn't matter when every single second of midge's personal life is the be all and end all of the show, then why are you just cowardly hinting? Have some god damn balls.

It really doesn't help that I just am losing my patience with the plot. A lot of people were saying how last season it started just feeling like rich white woman temper tanturm hour but this last episode really solidified it. Midge's unprofessionalism is feeling less enderingnand edgy and more like she's just sulking because has to actually work to get to the top. Oooooo I'm a professional writer on one of the most famous comedy shows in the country, but I'm not allowed to guest star because of very reasonable professionalism rules. I'm sure my position as a writer on one of most watched shows in the country definitely won't open other doors to get on other shows. So I'm literally going to completely ruin a completely unrelated gig. Remember when her unprofessionalism was that her jokes were too edgy for the time? That her quick wit and desire to tell the world the way she sees it was what was getting her in trouble. The was what she bonded with Lenny over which was by far one of the most interesting relationships in the show. But tbh they ruined that by having them sleep together. Lenny worked well as this almost mythical concept of what she could become, both good and bad. The relationship was complex and interesting and worked way way way more as friends/peers. But no midge now suddenly has to be romantic with every guy in the show, including her boss now? Which they just don't comment on the blatant workplace harassment there? It's just tee hee Midge is pretty so her boss wants to sleep with her.

Also like can I just say the stuff with Abe was so fucking gross this episode. For a guy who's been pretty heavily autistic coded throughout the show the way they framed him trying to make up with Rose after their fight, which yes he was an asshole in and needed to apologize for, it felt like they made what seemed to me like an honest loving gesture of apology communicated non verbally, which yes he's been heavily autistic coded this whole fucking show so that's likely the best way he has to communicate, as child like and pathetic was just disgusting. Like I can see myself in his head so much. He messed up and he knows he did but he doesn't know how to apologize for it so he gets up in the middle of the night and picks her roses to scatter on her bed and then comes to be non sexually intimate with her, deliberately trying not to get too close into her personal space so she doesn't feel overpowered or attacked. A pose that could literally be interpreted as him begging her forgiveness. And that describing it's sounds so sweet but in the show he's blocked like he's being a pathetic child. It's so so gross.

And that's not even talking about the conversation that triggered it which spends half the time treating every woman in the scene like they're shallow and unable to understand media, before seemingly taking a minute to mock anyone who wants to read more into stories, highlighting queer analysis especially, as people who refuse to just let stories be and being too forceful for asking people to actually think about what they're watching. Real the curtains are blue shit.

I honestly love Abe so much he reminds me of my dad in a lot of ways so I am pretty biased but even still I just feel so gross after bits of this episode. Especially when they do stuff like "haha men don't want to know about lady problems" while actively undermining sexual harassment and making all the female characters besides queen of all midge and Susie, who despises all thing femmine, (in a way that used to feel like butch rep but with the other stuff seems now like a way to say she's competent because she's not acting like a silly girl) be portrayed as dumb.

Idk man I miss mai.

10 Observations: in which I break a curse, fail to evade arena employees, and see Geno play his 1000th NHL game

how are you all? are you well? are you in a general state of good health? please tell me you are, because I decided to subject myself to the frigid chicago weather, the stresses of an away arena, and shepherding my hockey-uneducated family through a game in a desperate bid to see geno's 1000th game.

I succeeded. I survived. barely. this is my story:

1 - United Center is Nice and Much Too Large

this place is massive. just... untenably large. upsettingly large, one might say. I've been there only twice before—for concerts, never a sporting event—and I remember being struck by the size even then, when huge swaths of the arena were blocked off for the stage. seeing the whole place actually in use was alarming and further put PPG Paints Arena into context for me.

this arena-contextualizing started with me going to Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle and marveling at THEIR size (and beauty, and functionality, and Fun Arena Kitsch), and comparing that to PPG Paints Arena, which is rinky-dink in comparison. I don't know why I expected United Center to be... rustier? older? meh-er? than PPG Paints, but I had attributed C.P.A.'s beauty to its newness and assumed that United Center, being older than me, would be less nice than PPG Paints.

I was wrong. deeply, lol. if we're looking for "shiny new arena beauty," United Center has it. it's a slick arena! the jumbotron is FEARSOME and MOVES(????) and has WAY TOO MANY STATS ON IT. I was very lost on where to look. kind of to the point of overstimulation. (especially after the opening jersey retirement ceremony). the concourse is very glossy and new-looking. chicago! you do sports venues well!

that being said: all of the concessions areas directly impede passersby. walking around the arena was, overall, unpleasant. I usually try to make a point to explore a new arena a little, but after venturing out for warmups and fighting MASSIVE lines and crowds everywhere, I stayed planted in my seat for the rest of the game. honestly there were TOO MANY people for my taste. I applaud United Center for their huge turnout for the ceremony, but...

there's something to be said for rinky dink arenas. I'm fond of PPG Paints Arena. it's my arena, you know? I know it really well, I know how to function in it, and it's a little (maybe a lot) outdated, but it's ours. and, god bless it, it's humbly-sized. manageable.

2 - Jersey/Number Retirement Ceremonies Are Neat And I Almost Cried

I do not know Hossa. at all. I maybe saw him play a game or two against the pens, but that's the extent of it. despite that, I'm a sucker for a good ceremony, and I thought they did a really nice job with it... even if it was REALLY long, haha. the crowd REALLY liked him and supported him and it was pretty neat to watch.

that being said... I almost started crying when my mind inevitably went to what Sid, and Geno, and Tanger's jersey retirements are going to look like. like, I was tearing up at this very heartfelt ceremony for a guy I didn't know and an organization I have animosity towards. I've always known I'd cry at a SidGenoTanger ceremony, but it struck me very concretely at this moment that I will be bawling when that happens. I'm talking full-on ugly crying. I'm going to be sobbing in the penguins' arena on those fateful days and personally I hope that is far, far in the future.

3 - The United Center Employees Were Conspiring To Foil Me

the customer service was, ah, not ideal. I dealt with a really condescending parking lot attendant who had no interest in answering apparently really stupid questions from someone who has never been to a sporting event at this arena, which made me roll my eyes but, like, whatever, we got parked and survived it, so hey, that's cool.

but oh, warmups. ohoho, warmups.

for the uninitiated: in Pittsburgh, at PPG Paints Arena, you can go down to the glass and stand there during warmups, no matter if you're seated in that section or not. provided you're not in someone's seat and they come kick you out, you're allowed to be there to observe.

the only time I've ever had an issue there was when this curmudgeonly usher manning the section used to get on people's cases for standing in the aisles. I haven't seen him since 2018 or so, so I hope he's retired from his career of hassling young families and random 20somethings.

in Seattle, jes and I had noooo problem at all going down for warmups. none at all. foolish me, I assumed all arenas were as accommodating. United Center was here to prove me wrong!

at the first aisle I tried to go down, an employee asked to see my ticket. I asked if I was allowed to just go down and observe warmups; he said no. I was not ready to give up, so I turned around and walked a bit further to another entrance point. this time I got down to the glass unencumbered! a man sitting in that section told me I wasn't allowed to go past the second step (??) and actually reach the glass, but hey, that's cool.

then ✨our guys✨ came out! there they were! glorious in their white kits! lookin' great! it never escapes me that PPG Paints Arena has waaaay worse lighting than other arenas, because there is an appreciable difference in brightness at our home rink and both Seattle/Chicago.

and then an employee came down and kicked me out :) once again asking for proof of tickets, and when I asked about just watching warmups, I got another "no, not allowed." damn, United Center! take pity on those of us who can't afford your lower bowl! I actually went to talk to local hockey fans after the game to inquire about the whole thing: is that policy? the answer I got was: security was very tight because of the ceremony that happened earlier :/ apparently watching warmups might have been permissible on another night, but the arena was very full and the employees were pretty clamped-down on the rules.

sigh! I get it, but I'm a little 🤨🙄 about it too. not that I'm going to make a habit out of going to games in Chicago—we suck in that arena, and also it's expensive!—but I think watching the pens in this city is gonna be a one-and-done for me.

I hilariously and sadly missed the geno-prank-stretching situation during all this, but with it being so well-documented online, I am just accepting what happened and being grateful I was there at all. accept that which you cannot change, etc. etc.

I will say, this did sour my opinion of the arena, which makes my official hockey-viewing-arena ranking list as follows:

Climate Pledge Arena: slick, gorgeous, new, it's like you're trapped in an amazon original, consistent branding makes it kind of magical? great, youthful energy and a really fun atmosphere.

PPG Paints Arena: it's home and it's ours and I love it very much. it's your homely wife you return to after your long voyage at sea. her stew is middling at best and the house is a little rough around the edges, but she's kept it tidy and familiar for you. what more could you ask for?

United Center: the fans are passionate, loud, and so very into it. honestly it felt more barn-like than PPG Paints. I see why we have the "corporate" feeling arena; the hawks fans just have a general passion that we lack, I think :/ however: your multilayered state-of-the-art jumbotron overwhelmed me, your concourse design is horrible to navigate, and your employees were kinda rude. sorry <3

Lincoln Financial Field (2019 Stadium Series): 0/10 horrible experience would not recommend on any level

I perhaps should rank United Center higher, because I have officially BROKEN MY CURSE of seeing my team lose at away arenas, but... listen. my decisions must be made by vibes and not wins.

4 - Meet The Rimouskis Family: Hockey Novices

I've been into hockey for over 6 years now, and I have never been to an NHL game with my family before! I was able to take my sister to a college game once, but that's all. this was a brand new experience for all of them, and I'm so appreciative that they were game. we learned a lot about ourselves... namely:

my middle sister is very easy to rope into sports, lol. she's not a Sports Girl by any means, but as she put it to me: "give [her] a team to root for and [she's] in". and in she was! when I offered to pack an extra jersey for her, she took it and repped Sid, which was sweet.

my family doesn't really get my interest in hockey but they are really sweet and accepting of it and game to go. it was funny, though, when the penguins would score and I would LAUNCH out of my seat screaming and fist-pumping and my family would just be sitting there ahahaha.

they were also not as adept in the art of worming-one's-way-through-hockey-crowds as I, but I'll admit that I'm impatient and short. they had a good time and honestly knew more than I gave them credit for. I did have to explain the concept of a power play to my sister, but my dad honestly held his own for the whole game. he'll watch pens games if they're on national broadcasts and text me about the results, which I find sweet. he's not a hockey guy, but he's finding it more palatable now that I'm into it and that fighting isn't as much of a thing as it was when he was a kid.

5 - The Arena Did Right By Geno

They really did. My parents were asking me ahead of the game if I thought Geno would get any recognition from the home team because of Hossa's retirement ceremony. I told them that I was hoping for a commercial-break titlecard, and sure enough, that's what we got!

the fans in the building were REALLY good about it, too. lots of applause and cheering. I know I touched on it earlier but: the fans in this arena are loud. it's impressive. geno wasn't lying when he said it's a loud, intimidating arena to play in!

6 - Experience Penguins Hockey, Baby!

I regret to inform you that I Began Experiencing Hope as soon as he had a great start. my greatest folly was doing as the team did and thinking, wow, a three goal lead! we have this in the bag!

aha. wow. who would have guessed what was about to happen next!

Jumping around and cheering as the only person in your immediate vicinity doing said jumping and cheering is a weird experience! not sure if I recommend, but it helped I wasn't truly alone with my family there. I have a mixed experience about them all seeing how viciously into it I get, but... I can't help it, alas.

speaking of:

7 - Anxiety And You And The Pittsburgh Penguins: A Shitty Guide

I started getting nauseous after the 2nd hawks goal... and when we hit the last 10 minutes in the third period, I started bargaining with a god I do not believe in and mercifully asking him to, if the hawks were going to even it up, make it so that they scored THEN and not with less than five minutes to go. there are few things I hate more than an opponent evening up the game with POCKET CHANGE left on the clock. it's horrid.

so NATURALLY that's exactly what happened. I sat there and told myself it was fine :) it was fine I was used to this it was fine :) I've never seen them play in chicago before because we always suck in chicago it's fine :) nothing can hurt me hockey isn't real :)

8 - Sidney Crosby Said You Aren't Going To Ruin His Tall Beautiful Wife's Big Night

I can't express how animalistically I screamed when sid scored that goal. I can't. I launched out of my seat and was just RIOTING, an army of one, down at the ice. I might've alarmed my dad a bit. it's okay.

seeing him do that fuck you celly was An Experience unto itself. I literally commented to my dad that you DON'T see sid celly like that anymore.

well, you don't see him celly like that anymore unless he's winning the game for his brother-bestie-soulmate in a city he's never scored in. you know. all casual-like. nbd.

as @yabagofmalk said, love is real and it was invented in pittsburgh.

also BIIIIIIIG big thank you to the hawks fan who shouted "KILL SID" from behind me at the game. I know in my heart of hearts sid heard him and decided he was winning this game. in true form, the crowd booed loudly after he scored and also when his goal was announced over the speaker. it fueled him. and me. because I'm nice but sometimes playing villain is fun.

9 - FOMO, But, Like, From NOT Being Not-There?

I had a good time. I want to start this section by saying: this was fun and I'm so glad my family came and I got to show them ✨hockey✨ and MY TEAM WINNING.

however:

I actually feel liked I missed out on... a lot? by not being online and with you all and the twitter folks? it's weird, because while I was busy interacting IRL with my family and, like, the hawks fans I guess, I was missing out on EVERYTHING that was happening online with friends and other fandom members.

I can compare it to sid's 1000th, which we were ALL online for because of the pandemic. that sucked, and I would have given up a lot to have been there, but I very much felt PART of something by participating in online fandom spaces and experiencing that with me peers online.

and, weirdly, when you're there, it's like... sure you're experiencing it with ONE group of peers, but not the usual one? and perhaps not the ones who will most directly relate to your experience? it was an interesting feeling to have.

I guess this is all to say: these online spaces we share are so incredibly important and powerful and joyous, and I am (as always) so grateful to be a part of them. I love you guys!

10 - Evgeni Malkin ✨❤️

Geno is so colossally important to me. I was reflecting, as we left the arena, the trials and tribulations he's been through to get here. I was able to explain his ~escape~ story to my parents and it's one of those things where I've read and heard and talked so much about it that having a fresh set of ears listen to the story really drives home WHAT, exactly, he did to achieve his dream, and how nuts it was.

he's special, and I think the way the organization reacts to any mention of him—with wry, fond smiles and delighted laughs and ever-amused anecdotes—speaks more than any stat from the ice could.

how lucky we all are! how fortunate that we are all here, at this time, at this moment, to experience and appreciate this! no matter if you started watching penguins hockey 20 years ago or 2 months ago, you get to experience evgeni malkin. what a treat that is for all of us. how cool for things to line up in that way. what a night. what a player.

and kris... you're up next. break out the cat ears, buddy.

#long post #happy evgeni malkin day

top 10 wlw ships of all time??

All time?? Ahh, good question Anon. I'm sure there's a more objective way to answer this and I could maybe even do a top 10 in terms of milestones in representation but instead, today, this is just going to be my personal list based on my faves.

First thing to know is that I'm actually not that big of a shipper and kinda go all or nothing. Meaning, if I list more than three there's going to be a huge difference in terms of my devotion between the first half and the second half, and for that purpose I'm going to divide this into subcategories.

The top 3 - ride or die, they have my heart ships

1. Korra and Asami, The Legend of Korra

Let’s not even get started on what the Avatar universe means to me and Korrasami in particular because I will cry. They’re comfortably my OTP, if we take One True Pairing seriously and I’ll never forget December 19th 2014.

2. Bubblegum and Marceline, Adventure Time

Dare I say, the OGs? Two years before Korrasami walked off into that sunset I became obsessed with a cartoon vampire and her ex-gf, a despotic piece of gum. Archaeologists will find my many Bubbline posts from before they became canon and see how I was foaming at the mouth trying to tell everyone exactly what the subtext implied. But it’s not just that sense of vindication that will always, always make them so special to me.

3. Brittany and Santana, Glee

Shocker! Lmao, I mean, it is kind of strange that they’re so high because Glee has by far the weakest writing out of my favourite shows and Brittana was treated with the least respect. But, you know, I’m still hooked and I still have a deep love for Brittana’s story. They’re not a pairing I grew up with but one I’m glad I gave a chance to in my twenties. Enough said since I regularly go on about them.

Moving to top 5 - think less about them now but hold dear

4. Laura and Carmilla, Carmilla: The Series

Ahh, Hollstein. I got into Carmilla right after LoK concluded and Hollstein was a milestone couple in terms of my relationship to representation. This little web series created a duo of incredibly complex characters who had an even more complex relationship and one I cherished so, so much. I still think their writing holds up, though I haven’t rewatched in a while. Once upon a time I went as hard for them as the top three, it’s just been a while and Carmilla isn’t a forever fandom for me in the same way Avatar is. Precious memories though.

5. Catra and Adora, She-Ra and the Princesses of Power

Being as into SPOP as I ended up after season 5 dropped caught me by surprise but it was a very, very solid show and presented a very beautiful story between Catra and Adora. Again, very layered, very complex, very well-written and not the least well (voice) acted. Catradora made me feel so deeply about a ship after quite a while so they deserve to be in the top 5.

Next 2 - less intense but still active shipping

6. Luz and Amity, The Owl House

Continuing my trend of cartoon gfs, I was so happy to watch The Owl House and see how far we’ve come with kids’ shows. Their relationship is allowed to exist well before the finale and it’s so cute and they’re such interesting characters. I admit, I’m a bit behind on TOH at the moment but I’ll catch up by the time season 3 comes out. They’re not quite the same as other animated couples in terms of how personally atteched I am but I’m over the moon about Lumity’s mere existence.

7. Nico and Karolina, Marvel’s Runaways

Deanoru mostly had a hold on me when I first watched the first two seasons and it never crossed into a more intense love for them, but I still really dig the story despite the show’s shortcomings and the premature end. I feel like they got a good enough ending and were treated with respect as a couple. And, you know, that whole sun and moon dynamic? Sign me tf up.

Bottom 3 - still good! just more casual

8. Rachel and Chloe, Life Is Strange: Before the Storm

I was very much anything but chill about Amberprice when I was first playing BtS but in retrospect, and having replayed the game that had more to do with my love for Rachel Amber rather than the pairing. They still made it to the list because they made me feel things in a way most wlw ships in media I casually enjoy don’t. And that whole “run away with me” scene in the second episode? My god. Their tragedy? Fuck I’m a sucker for that.

9. Casey and Izzie, Atyical

I’d say Atypical is by far the show I consumed the most casually out of all the ones listed but Cazzie were such a well-handled couple with adorable and very real scenes. Wlw ships in Netflix shows can feel kinda... forced and like they were just thrown in, but I thought Izzie’s introduction and their evolution felt organic and I enjoyed watching it unfold. They’re top tier, even if they don’t rank higher for me because of personal involvement.

10. Nicole and Waverly, Wynonna Earp

I’ll be honest, there are a couple of ships that could interchangeably place 10th but I think the beginning of Wynonna Earp and Wayhaught’s relationship caught that good time in wlw fandom so I consider them special enough to make the list. My attachment to them is unique to this experience of having watched it unfold and the fact that they were a shining light of hope after everything went down in 2016. Rather than treat it casually, the creators doubled down on Wayhaught’s story and importance and that had an impact. Good show, good ship.

Well, I hope a list like this is more or less what you meant! I’d be curious to hear others’ faves; this is really nostalgic for me for various reasons haha.

#judge my taste 😌 #i'm kidding please don't i will cry when it comes to the sapphics #but this was interesting to consider so thanks anon #anon #ask #top 10 wlw ships #korrasami #brittana #bubbline #deanoru #hollstein #catradora #wayhaught #cazzie #amberprice #lumity #fandom asks #shipping asks

hiiii AGAINNNNN, i have a request for chris evans x readerrrr

where reader is onset with chris in the winter solider, just so so so many bloopers of nat, bucky and him and reader together!

just completely fluffy but also a crack fic or headcanon😭

Bloopers on set

—————

Paring: Chris x female! Reader

Warnings: none just absolute crack energy, fluff with everyone, bloopers :)

Hey lovey! I hope you like this sorry it is so short nevertheless I loved writing it 💖

—————

So whenever you were all together on set it was ABSOLUTE chaos I’m talking Sebastian & Mackie style chaos. Trying to do scenes together was hard because you all couldn’t go 2 seconds with out someone (usually y/n) bursting out with laughter.

It made set so much more enjoyable and more like a massive family so it was just like another family gathering everyday at work. Which even ment interviews were well… interesting to say the least.

You, Chris & / or Sebastian would be paired on interviews and it was a literal Chris E / H situation you all were comedians. You didn’t exactly get all of the questions answered you more or less went off on long ass tangents about said question so you did do work. Just not very well.

You were treated like the little sister of the group, bring only 20 everyone had a massive protectiveness over you, which made you really happy since you’d never had something like this before.

It was always the ‘Tom Holland baby type jocks’ that were the best to witness in the interviews and on set because your comebacks were always the highlight.

“Does the little baby need her juice?” Sebastian jokingly asked

“Yeah I do because your dumb ass didn’t get me coffee early, i don’t wike it.” You quipped back to Sebastian leaving him speechless in thought because he did think he got you coffee but he didn’t so he walked away deep in thought although he didn’t leave with out commenting on the fact you picked up Chris’ signature phrase of “I don’t wike it.”

That was just one of the many times y/n left anyone especially Sebastian speechless.

Pranks were another thing that got so bad they had to make a truce, its only because every kept stealing Sebastian’s k-y jelly he acts like a big whiny baby when it happens if you ask me, same with when Dodger mysteriously goes missing that really sets chris off but everyone knows he’s just wroth y/n cuddled up asleep with her following suit.

Filming that one scene in infinity war where they all walk out to fight took 2000 retakes or at least that’s what it felt like, because of the wonderful meme you’d created from that moment *thank you to Pinterest and whoever created it :)* it was now a running joke that Chris was in a sandwich all the time to the point you got him a sandwich costume custom made 😭✋🏻

The family you wouldn’t change for the world, that was always there for you regardless of the time of day, schedule or whatever no one else could ever experience the marvel family and experience it the way you all do without being in on it.

—————

Thank you lovey for this, i know it was short and late for me posting I just wanted to get it out before my appointment because I don’t know how much energy I’ll have to write. Nevertheless I hope you all like this :)

Asks are open 🔓

Regarding Billy’s canonical experiences with homelessness, although him being homeless is a part of his character’s backstory, it’s not as though him having been homeless in the past doesn’t impact him in the present of when stories are set.

In the Pre-Crisis continuity, Billy is successful enough as a reporter to be a child celebrity and lives a comfortable life, but he's also portrayed to become very defensive and angered when his job is threatened, which I understand to be because of the trauma of his life before he had its security. He also holds a lot of resentment towards his Uncle Ebenezer who stole his rightful inheritance then abandoned him.

In the Post-Crisis continuity, Billy is inherently less secure in his job at Whiz Radio because his employment there is hinged on his grades and attendance at school. If he misses too many days of school or is unable to keep above a certain grade average, his principal will, as has, forced Whiz Radio to stop giving him work believing that that's interfering, though it's really because he was busy being Captain Marvel.

During a period of time that Billy didn't have his job at Whiz Radio, he was shown to have to take under the table work doing physical labor in his Captain Marvel form at night, which of course made his attendance and performance at school even worse since he wasn't getting enough sleep, exacerbating the problem and making it difficult for Billy to get ahead. Also, said work was specified to be 'scab' work, as in work done by a non-union worker during an strike, which I think is interesting as it shows that even though he was unwilling to steal in order to support himself, he was desperate enough to break other moral norms like being a strikebreaker.

And even he does have his steady job at Whiz Radio, which was purposefully structured as to not interfere with school and even provided a tutor for him to ensure his academic success, he was portrayed as very frugal, shopping at thrift stores and being excited about coupons. He also attends social events that he wouldn't otherwise have (because he's a very busy kid balancing school, work, and being a superhero) if there's food provided because he'd never pass up an opportunity for free food.

When Billy gets adopted by the wealthy Bromfields, who live in a large 'country club-looking' home that has a swimming pool and a tennis court and who send him to private school, even having Billy and Mary being driven to and picked up from there by a chauffeur, this is shown to be a tough adjustment for him. He holds resentment for the other students at the private school, explicitly reflecting back on the time when he was homeless and judging them because he believes that they've been given everything by their parents whereas he's had to struggle to support himself. His behavior alienates him from the other students at school, including students who are there on scholarships or whose parents have to work hard to send them there, to whom he comes across as thinking that he's better than them. There's also a scene where Billy sees some students from the private school picking on a homeless man, and Billy comes to the man's aid.

He also has a hard time opening up to the Bromfields and letting them parent him because he's spent such a long time taking care of himself. I think that it would make a lot of sense for Billy to have felt very insecure during this time, as the move forced him to leave his Whiz Radio job and he went from financially supporting himself to being reliant on the Bromfields, when years before he had been abandoned by his Uncle Ebenezer who was supposed to take care of him when his parents died but did not.

Billy’s time being homeless is also shown to have deeply informed his worldview, he gives a monologue in The Power of Shazam! (1995) #39 that:

“When I was powerless, because of the Genesis Wave, I discovered that the courage I’d attributed to Achilles was always within me, within Billy Batson. That’s what kept me going after the deaths of our parents! I couldn’t have made it living on the streets of Fawcett without that courage, Mother Box. Holey moley, Mother Box, how can you even listen to my self-pity and whining? It’s making me sick! I’m a survivor! Survivors don’t whine- they get on with living!”

I feel that this shows that being a “survivor” is core to Billy’s identity and explicitly connects his famous cheerful demeanor with his traumatic past.

When a Trickster Meets a Trickster {Loki}

Plot: You're a trickster but Loki doesn't know it so you mess with him for your own entertainment.

Character: Loki x Plus Size Reader

Requested by marvelous-imagines-for-all

With a look around, you puffed out your cheeks and blew out a long breath. You were bored. Your father, King of a nearby realm, was currently having a business meeting with Odin, King of Asgard. He had promised that you might find something fun to do around here whilst he conducted his business but three days in and you weren't a fan of Asgard. Sure, it was pretty but there was just no one that could keep up with you. That was until Loki, son of Odin, came back.

You squinted, sitting up and leaning forwards from your chair to try and get a better look at the dark haired Prince. You'd heard the rumours of the devilish Prince Loki. You knew of his powers, of his trickster tendencies, and whilst that made most people distrusting of the young Prince, it quirked your interest. A trickster meant that he knew how to have fun, he knew how to entertain especially if it was at other people's expense. Something that was also well known about you was that you, too, were a trickster though you didn't have quite the reputation that Prince Loki had.

You decided that you were going to approach him and play with him. With your head held high and with a charming smile on your face, you began to walk over to him. It wasn't long before his eyes were on you, eyeing you up and down. Years ago, you wouldn't have been so comfortable with someone (especially someone of his calibre) looking at your full body. You were curvier than most, you were plus size and you weren't ashamed about it. You were you and if anyone dared to think any less of you because of your body shape, you would smite them. Loki's eyes didn't look at you in a judgemental way but in a curious way. Who is this confident thing striding to me?

"Hi," you said with a wide grin, "I'm bored and I've heard that you're pretty fun, wanna go for a walk?"

"And who might you be?" He asked with a smirk intrigued by your confidence in speaking to him.

"I'm..." It was in this moment you decided that you wanted to mess with him a little bit. Why tell him your true identity? Why not trick the trickster? "I'm Miriam."

"Are you part of King Leion's subjects?" He was referencing your father.

You nodded, "I'm a handmaiden to (y/n)."

"Ah," Loki said before eyeing you again, "What did you have in mind for us to do?"

You shrugged, "You're the God of Mischief, let's go cause some chaos."

"I like the way you think."

It didn't take long before you and Loki had found a pub to sit in. Loki was showing off, he always showed off when someone asked him to or even if someone didn't ask him to. He enjoyed the way you laughed when he tricked someone, pulling chairs away or moving their belongings to trick them.

As he was busy trying to trick someone else, you decided to trick him. Loki reached for his pint, eyes on someone else, ready to take a drink. You blinked, switching the pint and the flowerpot that was on the table, so that when he took a drink, he got a mouthful of soil and an eyeful of dirt. Your laughter was booming as he coughed, chucking the plant causing it to smash on the floor, and reached for his actual pint to take a drink.

"What happened?" Someone called over.

"He needs to keep his eyes on the prize," you teased, "Too wrapped up in other people, made a silly mistake, that's all." As Loki recovered, he couldn't help but feel as though he hadn't made an error. He had an issue with making errors, he could never really accept when he made a mistake. However he shrugged it off and rolled his eyes before continuing to mess with people.

It was a while later when the two of you had gotten bored of the pub and had moved onto the market place near the fountain when you next tricked Loki. He'd been looking at some books and had picked one up to buy but when he went to pay, he reached into his pocket and pulled out... flower petals?

"Maybe they're from the pub?" You joked.

Loki frowned, throwing the petals on the floor and reaching into his other pocket for money. "Hang on a minute," Loki said, eyes narrowing as the puzzle pieces began to slot together inside his mind. He recalled a fact that his father had told him a while ago; King Leion has a trickster daughter called (y/n), maybe the two of you will get along. Loki's lips quirked upwards into his signature Loki smirk as he looked to you. Could it be? A trickster tricking another trickster? If it was, if you were another trickster, was a devilish trick that Loki would get such a kick out of.

You had told him that your name was Miriam, a hidden secret to keep him at bay at least for a while. As you fiddled with something on the stall behind him, not realising that in his mind he was uncovering your tricks, he asked, "Oh, (y/n)?" You hadn't expected it and you'd been too distracted so you turned around.

"Yeah?" When you looked at him, you knew that you'd fucked up, "Shit."

Loki's smirk stretched out into a wide cheeky grin as he laughed, "I caught you." He stalked towards you like a predator stalking its prey, "How long did you think you could keep up the act?"

You smirked, "I was wondering how long it would take you to notice... My father said you were clever but I think he must've gotten you mixed up with someone else."

Loki grinned widely as you poked fun at him, "Ooh," he said lowly, "I think I've finally met my match... What do you say to causing more chaos together?"
