it always blows my mind when people are shocked by or even disbelieving of the fact that "breaking bad" is like a genuinely funny show with actual jokes and absurd situations. do they really think the most critically-acclaimed, popular show of all time got that way because its fucking miserable and dour and gritty The Whole Time

this isn’t going to be coherent but i am stuck on the presence of smoking in may december. joe tells us he never talks to his father about what happened, but he’s able to smoke cigarettes with him, neither of them saying anything. his son teaches him how to smoke a joint on the roof, how it’s different than a cigarette. elizabeth is reliant on an inhaler and nebulizer to the point when georgie smokes near her she makes a point of coughing and telling him to blow it away from her. georgie, who was joe’s peer, who was the reason for gracie being around joe before she could manipulate the pet store job. the fates of joe’s little sisters are left unclear but we’re told one of them was asthmatic like elizabeth. at the start of the movie joe is grilling at the behest of gracie, but she can’t stand to be in bed with him afterwards because she says he smells charcoal. joe tells her that they have a gas grill, so what she’s smelling is smoke.

I will absolutely never forgive the people who looked at the beauty of old architecture that’s filled with character and decided a sad beige cube was better.

Steve runs hot and Eddie is always cold, but Eddie is the sun and Steve is the moon. Steve exercises every morning to keep in shape and Eddie can eat whatever he wants and not gain weight. Steve loves to make big romantic breakfasts and Eddie is barely hungry until 2 pm. Steve is horrible at board games but competitive and Eddie is laid back and always wins. Steve cooks full meals when he’s hungry and Eddie eats a bell pepper like an apple. Steve loves to sit on his roof and look at the stars and Eddie loves to sit on Steve’s roof and look at Steve.

Identity reveal shazamily fic idea:
They're fighting some big bad in a huge cave or throne room or in an air pocket miles underwater (the Rock?) and the league and shazamily are all there, every two stuck in separate areas (magic barriers? Cave ins? Enemies simply not letting them close?).
The roof is starting to collapse. Billy catches it, but with his powers divided, he's struggling. With a time limit before he falls, the battle intensifies.
Mary and her jl partner fells her opponent first, and looks across the room just in time to see him stagger under the crushing weight. She cannot reach him (in time?). They meet each others eyes. The wisdom of Solomon, or perhaps Mary batson, has an idea.
In a crash of thunder, she detransforms, in front of their enemies, and the entire justice league.
With power returned, captain marvel stands a bit straighter. The roof grows heavier. Cracks scatter across the high ceiling.
As Mary is carried to safety, the family understands what they must do.
In conjunction with the league member they were trapped with, they work to defeat their opponents, and one by one transform, each time revealing people too small, too young. The crash of thunder marks each victory. Rubble starts to fall and shake the earth as the league members pull their partners to safety, gathering together by the entrance, bandaging their wounds. All eyes are on Marvel, trapped under a great pillar of stone. (They have been working with him for years now, but each of his family has been revealed to be children. Is he, too?) Each time he raises the ceiling a little higher, and each time it grows heavier as the battles and the ticking clock destabilise the thousands of tons above.
At last, the final group win, and exhausted league members piggy back the last child hero over the rubble.
All are evacuated, but Marvel cannot move. Rapid power transfer and hours of stress have taken their toll, and he needs to transform back as well.
Finally, finally, green lantern and superman reach him, and with their help he is freed, collapsing to the side in relief. No one says a word.
With one final lightning strike, the last member of the team is revealed.
He's twelve years old.
And the league needs to take them all to safety.
