#scurrying thru the trash as a cat because. why not. she couldve been a racoon or a rat or anything else but she's a cat. because she is

i think one thing i'm never gonna get over about the movie is that the memorial wall full of art — some of the drawings are of shadow nimona. i can't get screenshots right now but like. shadow nimona smiling. beaming. getting hearts and smiles and hugs, from the kids, from other shadow creatures. it's just. it's so sweet. like it's the kids who drew that taking all that raw hurt and vulnerability from the final act and giving it the hug and empathy and solidarity it needed. and it's like, look at nimona's line after the kwispy incident, look at the cereal ad, the board game billboard; look at gloreth being taught hate, and then look at the drawings. and i just lose it every time i think about it

#nimona #it's 3am so idk if im making any sense but #all this abt the memorial wall #plus nimona doing more shapeshifting outside of combat and crimes #nimona is a girl and a boy and a rhino and a bird and an ostrich and a whale and - in her words - a lot of things #she is also the shadow creature #and just seeing that acknowledged w the memorial drawings…. #it's acknowledging all the parts of nimona. every one you can reach. this is her and this is also her and this is also her #and all those parts deserve love too #idk i just like seeing the movie i guess 'normalize???' (for lack of a better term) nimona's shapeshifting #like doing it without objective purpose or functionality or combat or what have you #just chilling on the train eating a pizza. as a gorilla. because those are her vibes right now! #scurrying thru the trash as a cat because. why not. she couldve been a racoon or a rat or anything else but she's a cat. because she is #and then i think about how kids are getting to see this movie and i just feel so much *hope* #im not good at articulating myself sorry i hope this made sense
