rewatching dawn of justice and melting at how often the bad kids help each other . its everyone squaring up with kipperlilly when she comes for kristen, its them helping adaine get from 4 to an unnatural 20 with her hottie, its everyone showing up for riz' first game with the owlbears, its adaine shooting off chromatic orbs behind fig when she's rocking out, its them all lurking outside bobby dawn's office ready to POP off for kristen

"listen to me! i know what i'm doing!" During the AOC fight with Calamity Ganon?
Hey! Listen!
"You had better-!" Urbsoa grunted, throwing off the last bones of a stalkoblin. The damn bastards were bad enough one-on-one, but four to a person was absurd! Especially when she had to mind friendly fire so closely...聽
Her eyes flashed to Kohga, frankly just grateful for the help. They had their differences, but even at their most cut-throat, Urbosa was quick to remember the Yiga master's skill.
Flipping backward, she pressed her heel against the wall for support, throwing her head over her shoulder as her hands laced together. They'd only had a few shots at training for this, but she was confident in her ability to throw him at least as far as she could jump.
"Come on, I've got you!"

He held off the two biggest, baddest war machines BY HIMSELF that one time as if it was a regular Tuesday.
He's a giant hypocrite and a goofy dad.
He's the only one who looks at himself becoming a monster and goes "someone should stop me" instead of going psycho.
He's Angeal Hewley.
Uh anyway, um, an ask...
How many times can his farm boy muscles bench press Sephiroth before he gets tired?
well firstly i'd like to apologize for the wall of text i'm about to give you but unfortunately you HAVE just activated my trap card by calling angeal a dad. i feel strongly about this o7
angeal is, plain and simple, not old enough to be zack's dad and i truly feel like that is an important distinction. angeal is 25. he should be at the club joke. but literally like, he is far too young and zack is too old for this to work.
besides that point, i feel like slapping the Dad label onto angeal is reductive not only of his character but also of his relationship with zack. "dadgeal" is a quick and simple, small quirky way to describe their relationship to one another. not saying you constantly have to wax poetic about them (the way i like to LOL) but it gives them a certain flavor they simply do not have.
the relationship between zack and angeal is a complicated one. and it's not that i can't see the paternal aspects of the way angeal treats him, but at the same time it's so much more than that. like i think i said this somewhere a few months ago but to me the paternal aspects of angeal are more like, accidentally calling your teacher "mom" because as a kid at school a teacher fills a similar role in that space, or a teacher referring to their students as Their kids, because at school they might as well be. but kids don't generally Really see their teachers as their parents, or teachers viewing students as their actual kids. there's nuance. and with angeal, especially from zack's perspective, they have more than just a student and teacher or mentor and mentee relationship. they also have something different from a father and son relationship.
even for me as someone who enjoys viewing them in a brotherly fashion, i think one of the most important pieces to understanding their relationship is when zack is knocked out after falling through the church's roof, imagining talking to his mom, when he says, "i want to help out a friend."
a friend. not something vague like "someone important to me", or even something more distant like "my mentor", what he calls angeal is a friend. despite the fact that angeal is nine years older than him, is higher ranked than him, and is in a direct position of authority over him, zack first and foremost views him as his friend. this shows his innocence he still has, it shows how deeply he cares for angeal in such a simple yet important way. zack sees angeal as his friend before anything else.
this is where i think the paternal aspects really reduce their relationship, trying to fit it into an easier box to make cheeky jokes about, rather than acknowledging how, especially on zack's end, he does not view angeal in that way.
and i don't think angeal views zack as being his son either, at least not seriously. like, i can envision him referring to zack and others as "son" that way older men do with boys just cos he feels like the type to try and Act beyond his years, but he's still just 25. he's not gonna see a sixteen year old as being his kid like that.
it's kind of late rn so i feel like i'm losing my train of thought here a bit but the bottom line for me is that zack and angeal just don't ever treat each other like father and son. they're obsessed with each other and thinking about each other constantly and angeal wants to protect him and zack looks up to him, but that doesn't make them father and son, even in a cute quick jokey way. they are friends. zack does not just see angeal as a figure of authority over him, he sees him as his friend. no need to replace that with a different type of authority figure.
anyway, to answer your question, theoretically if sephiroth were to allow himself to be bench pressed, i think angeal could do it long enough to have me staring gayly at his arms the whole time

Deleted post I previously reblogged cause I don鈥檛 like the sentiment of there being a specific cut off point for forging deep friendships (but agree that it鈥檚 harder as you get older) , but I agree with the fact that friendship is something you usually have to work on and make an active effort towards and not something that just passively happens or will stay stable without any work or actively keeping close.

Nicholas Wolfwood is a man of infallible faith, according to his own words.
He is a man of the cloth, a man of virtue, a man whose darkened gaze and roguish looks have entrapped a congregation sizable for a backwater town just south of New Miami, a beacon of light in the one place on Gunsmoke where the sun never rises. The glitz and the neon of the city refuse to spill over to the place Wolfwood calls home, which works all the well, because it seems to need no help in attracting other strange things into town.
a gift for @arahir hehe

i love that angeal dies too like fuuuuuuck oh he's stopped viewing himself as a person but he still cares about zack so much he cares about zack SO much he gets zack to kill him because he needs to know he'll be okay without him and then even after he's fucking dead his clones follow zack around because there is no angeal without his love for zack like i'm not going to recover
