Ben - Che 'Taza' Romero (Drabble)
Tumblr media
Tagging: @ficnation @crazy4chickennuggets @kmc1989 @withakindheartx
Tumblr media
Taza’s in love.
He’s in love with a man called Ben Harrison who works at the community centre as an LGBT counsellor. He knows it’s wrong, that it’s against everything the M.C stands for but he just can’t seem to stop himself.
It’s been twenty-five years since David’s death, since he’s felt the touch of another man. He never thought he’d fall in love again but then Ben had appeared in his life.
Ben with the kind smile and eyes that Taza has just spent hours getting lost in.
Ben whose spends his days helping kids in crisis, building up their confidence and encouraging them to be who they were meant to be.
Ben who is so unapologetically himself that Taza couldn’t help but fall head over heels for the other man.
Beside him Ben stirs, his bare legs entangling with Taza’s as his arm drapes across his chest drawing him closer. His lips ghost over the back of Taza’s neck and it’s a blissful sensation, one that makes him feel safe in a world that has taught him otherwise.
“Don’t leave tonight.” Ben whispers against his skin, his voice gruff from sleep.
Every impulse in Taza is telling him to run, to leave this situation because if any one of his brothers finds out he’s done but his heart outweighs his head, and he finds his fingers entwining with Ben’s as he places the other man’s palm against his heart.
“I’ll stay for a while.” He tells Ben, settling back into the comfort of the other man’s arms. “Just a little while.”
Love Taza? Don’t miss any of his stories by joining the taglist here.

Blue Beetle is a triumph for DC, the Latinx Community, and Superhero Movies - SPOILER FREE REVIEW
Tumblr media
Ángel Manuel Sotos new DC film Blue Beetle is hitting theaters this week but has had a significantly hard road to get here.
The film was originally sold as a direct to streaming film, then was moved to theatrical release, was caught in the middle of a James Gunn take over, and now a writer's/actor's strike. Couple all that with superhero fatigue, and DC's not so clean track record, the film would have to jump massive hurdles to be successful most movies do not.
Blue Beetle, however, is a magnificent departure from superhero films of late that coast on past projects, name dropping, or cameos. It is a delightful film that centers on family, responsibility, and the many different types of Latinx experiences, all while being extremely funny and full of incredible action.
Director Manuel Soto breathes new life into the DCU in a way few directors have before. instead of opting for uniformity with other superhero projects, the film has a distinct color and design that feels unique and fresh. Excellent design, costuming, and vibrancy make up a beautiful Palmera City.
Tumblr media
One of the most notable aspects of the film was the fluid, dynamic fight choreography for Blue Beetle and our main physical antagonist, Carapax. While there are several heroes who have similar powers to Jaime, none quite have used it as interestingly. The shifting of weaponry, flight, and hand to hand combat make for types of fights we don't really see in live action.
Tumblr media
This film of course is not just made up of excellent visuals, but a phenomenal supporting cast. It is hard to pick out favorites, as most characters are given an opportunity to shine.
Through this cast, Manuel Soto shows the many realistic day to day fears and feelings of a Latinx/Hispanic person. Responsibility, family, and becoming who you are supposed to be are all at the heart of the film. As a Latinx man, so many aspects of the film hit home for me, sometimes comedically, sometimes tragically.
The movie also emphasizes different kinds of experiences in our community. Undocumented citizens, first generation, the religious traditional older member of the family, even the slacker uncle. Every member of the family feels different, but they all feel like a family.
For me, I'd say Belissa Escobedo as Milagro Reyes brings excellent sisterly back and forth with our hero and has some very emotional moments in the film. Brother/sister chemistry is sometimes difficult to pull off, but Escobedo makes it look easy. I think she has the making of a comedic star on the rise and is someone to lookout for.
Tumblr media
I'd say most members of the family will be someones favorite. George Lopez as Rudy, Jaimes Uncle Rudy, Damián Alcázar as Alberto Reyes, Jaimes Father, and Adriana Barraza as Nana, the matriarchal head of the family all got big laughs and, at times, tears from their performances.
This cast is phenomenal and elevates excellent writing into several iconic scenes. I don't see this film working without the perfect familial blend of actors. And they got it perfectly.
Tumblr media
While characters like Elpidia Carrillo as Rocio Reyes or Bruna Marquezine as Jenny Kord do get the short end of the stick in the film, I think they get their moments and will be greater utilized in (hopefully) future installments of the franchise.
What made it most clear that Manuel Soto understands character were the two antagonists of the film.
While they are not nearly as significant as the rest of the family, both Susan Sarandon as Victoria Kord and Raoul Max Trujillo as Conrad Carapax are not reduced to twirling mustache villains. They both have realistic and at times tragic stories that explain (but does not justify) their actions.
Tumblr media
While both give solid performances and are a step above your average Marvel/DC villains, I think the film could've benefitted from more of them.
But the real highlight of the film, to no ones surprise, was Xolo Maridueña as Jaime Reyes.
Tumblr media
Maridueña as Blue Beetle feels like one of those castings that seem impossible to be topped. He brings excellent comedy, pain, and honor to Jaime in a way that feels natural. He is Blue Beetle.
In the film, Maridueña displays a wide range of emotions while he goes through an incredibly grueling 2-3 days. There is comedy, awkwardness, strength, anger, and pain, and Maridueña nails every moment of it.
I expect you will see a lot more Xolo in the future even if we don't see more Blue Beetle. But I hope he does return.
I think this movie has the potential to connect with audiences in a way we just haven't seen in a long time from a Superhero film. It is original, fun, and shows us a side of DCU we've never seen before, without endless cameos and reminders of past projects.
I hope other studios take away that audiences want more representation via original content from creative visionaries. But Hollywood often takes away the wrong lesson.
Tumblr media
All in all, Blue Beetle is an incredible film that balances comedy, drama, and action in a way superhero movies rarely do. If you get the chance to, I highly recommend you go out and give it a watch. Films as good as this deserve support.
Blue Beetle is out in theaters this Friday August 18th.

Blue Beetle (2023)
This is a Movie Health Community evaluation. It is intended to inform people of potential health hazards in movies and does not reflect the quality of the film itself. The information presented here has not been reviewed by any medical professionals.
Blue Beetle has several scenes that use rapid-firing weapons, both realistic and sci-fi based, all used in dark environments with bright flashes. Flickering lights and electrical sparks and arcs create frequent and severe strobe effects. One pivotal scene occurs with emergency vehicle strobe lights flashing on the entire screen.
There is high-speed flying through complex maneuvers and extreme heights, typical to many other superhero films.
Flashing Lights: 10/10. Motion Sickness: 7/10.
TRIGGER WARNING: One character is almost constantly using microaggressions against Hispanic people. There is a brief allusion to a villain's motivation possibly being caused by physical disability.

Taza exits your workplace looking pretty fucking satisfied.
Watching him zip up his jeans, it doesn't take Bishop long to realise why he's spent the past twenty minutes outside waiting for him when they're meant to be on a run. "Fuckin' typical."
"Come on, like you wouldn't do the same if you were me. She called sayin' she needed me, and I delivered."
"Not during work hours. But I'm glad to see you're finally happy."
You meet his loving gaze as you step outside for a smoke, blowing him a kiss. Sighing, he looks back at Bishop.
"She's the one."

Blue Beetle review
Director(s):
Angel Manuel Soto
Main cast:
Xolo Mariduena, Bruna Marquezine, Susan Sarandon, Raoul Max Trujillo, Becky G, Damian Alcaraz, George Lopez, Elpidia Carrillo, Adriana Barazza and Harvey Guillen.
Runtime: 127 minutes.
Does it pass the Bechdel test? Yes
Basic Plot:
College graduate Jaime Reyes is chosen by the Scarab, a power piece of alien technology, to become the Blue Beetle.
Overall Thoughts:
Blue Beetle is an excellent family-driven superhero film. The special effects, acting, storyline and costumes are all great. Moreover, this film discusses important issues about family, immigration, racism, sexism, gentrification and capitalism. The only issue I had with the Blue Beetle film is that essential comic book characters Brenda and Paco, who are Jaime Reyes’ best friends, are completely omitted. Still, Blue Beetle is another excellent addition to the DC Universe.
Overall rating: 4.8 out of 5 stars.
