You know what isn't a crime, but definitely should be one? The casual mischaracterization of Sentry in fan content. I'm so done😭

1. I hate how he's often depicted as cruel, he's not, look at him, fucking look? And when Ava asks about the hair dye, what does he do? He looks to Val for an answer, he's constantly fidgeting, trying to find an out for the bunch of misfits who previously helped him in the vault.

2. I hate how people try to turn it into a Marc Spector, Steven Grant and Jake Lockley situation when it's. Like. Not?? This is such a disservice to both Moon Knight and The Sentry, and real people who relate to the two characters' (very distinct very different) mental health issues. Bob doesn't have DID, if anything, the movie leans towards him being bipolar. Sentry is Bob, the guy literally tells Yelena in the vault that he has high highs and low lows, the high is Sentry, the low is the Void, that's it. Bob is both Sentry and The Void. What's so hard to understand? It's the mania (Sentry), followed by depression (Void) then he forgets. That's how Bob describes it in the first act of the film, that's how it happens in the third act.

3. This is not a contradiction to point 1, but Sentry is unhinged. He is awkward and somehow soft spoken? But he is unhinged, and invincible, and fucking terrifying. I'm tired of the stoic depictions in fics like🙂‍↔️ idc if you wanna write fics for comic Sentry, just don't tag them as mcu stuff. (WHO AM I KIDDING COMIC SENTRY IS FUCKING SCARYYY STOP THE BABYFICATION)

4. He is not evil (the fact that we have to spell this out... media literacy is truly dead huh), no shit the Thunderbolts* will be scared of him, of course they will be– he kicked the ever-living shit out of them. But he's not malicious, he doesn't use unnecessary force. Call it condescending, but he's going easy on them, toying with them, and deals arguably softer blows to Yelena, John and Ava, the trio he already met at the vault (because he's the same person, yk? jesus)

5. Prespective is a thing, the team wasn't there to see Sentry tell Val he doesn't want to kill them (they're no threat to him), it's the root cause of their disagreement, it leads to the New York Blackout TM, but we, the audience, were. So tell me why the fuck do I see stuff with this guy terrorizing that team for no reason? 😭 bfr guys.

6. So what? So while I can buy you showing me Ava or John or Alexei or Bucky or Yelena being fearful of the Sentry, or Val (hahaha eat shit Val), I simply can't get behind him actually being a threat to them, on purpose and beyond swatting them like flies, because hi hello have you seen the movie? Yeah.

7. Have I mentioned Sentry is unhinged? Yeah. Yeah. We got glimpses of it with Val before Mel pressed the kill switch but!! Sentry!! Is!! Unhinged!!

8. Find a middle ground, he doesn't have to be uwu or straight up satan or stoic as a rock, he is Bob in mania, so that's inherently Bob with high levels of energy and a higher self esteem (more like a GODLY EGO) and impulsivness and dillusions of grandeur (except they're not dellusions anymore? So rip), so do with that what you will.

Fingers crossed for more in-character Sentry content, at least the Sentry depicted by Lewis Pullman, who put his all into this performance but whose character is still somehow misunderstood? Anyways.

Thanks for coming to my TED Talk.

Hear me out.

These two,

and these two,

are exactly the same in personality, stories, endings, and what could’ve and would’ve and did fix their relationship but just opposite genders.

[anders-chr]

And, like I said, Hiccup having a feeling that she’s oddly familiar but he can’t put his finger on it.

“Hiccup should be the watchman this!!” and “Hiccup should be the watchman that!!” I’m gonna need everyone to close those flappers you call lips and hear me out on Astrid being the night guard (and Hiccup constantly telling you “you remind me of someone i used to know”)

Sorry I don’t get the reference 😭

But sure, Astrid can absolutely be the superhero/vigilante/whatnot and Hiccup the civilian!

[anders-chr]

I love Astrid so much as a character because she WAS the first one to change her mind. She was the best warrior yes, but she did that because that's the only one she knew how to protect Berk. But as soon as she saw another way, she immediately took it. Because yes, she believed in Hiccup and that meant SO MUCH. Enough for him to STAY and fight. Legit her being the FIRST one to believe in him LITERALLY saved everyone. Cause Hiccup was about to DIP.

It's so significant that she was the one to change her mind. I don't thin anyone else could've done it but her, cause I think she and Hiccup BOTH love Berk yes, but Astrid, given that she had no other outlet to stop this war, was about to do anything as well to protect it, including killing dragons.

It's understated so much how Hiccup and Astrid's relationship in the first movie is so significant for the future (I mean this beyond shipping btw) Cause Astrid being Hiccup's ALLY, was MORE significant for him than her being someone he's romantically involved with. She was his ally FIRST, and THAT to me was the BEST thing she could've been to him at the time.

I love Astrid in the first movie so much because it shows what she's willing to do to save Berk, and I'm not saying Hiccup DIDN'T want to save Berk, but not for Astrid changing her mind BECAUSE of her love for Berk, Hiccup REALLY would've left just like Valka... Who know what would've happened with him after that. And we see this VERY CLEARLY in the single best thing Astrid's been characterized in this franchise: Gift of the Night Fury.

in GOTNF, we see Astrid at her BEST after HTTYD1, we get to see her relaxed and actually active in trying to cheer everyone up, we get to see her TRUE personality in times of PEACE, and those are GREAT, she's so cheerful and active and PRESENT. SHE came up with Yaknog, SHE came up with the egg presents, SHE was decorating the village. We see her devotion to Berk and her loyalty and see her be HERSELF because of herself. I love her so much there (and yes even in HTTYD2 we get to see some of that cheerful personality and I also love that tbh)

this is the main lesson I took from sinners

disclaimer: I did not mean offence with the word "witchy" I know she practices hoodoo, but I've made this meme at 3am and just copied the original meme word for word, I'm sorry if it seems disrespectful

I know the truth hurts

[anders-chr]

you keep dancing with the devil, one day he’s gonna follow you home

[anders-chr]

No white Sinners watchers, Remmick didn't want Sammie because he was in love with him

YOU (YOU!!!) just fetishize Black men and Oppressor x Oppressed relationships

You did not get the historical context of the movie

yall would ship a slave and his master as long as one of them were white

stop cosigning Black Media especially when you don't understand Black hardships and struggles through out REAL life history

STILL not over this. [tt post by cawlmepretty]

Hear me out — Mobius and Bruce are childhood best friends and their parents are like this 🤞. Mobius wants to date that cute gender-fluid theatre kid but his parents establish one rule, probably purely to fuck with him; Mobius can date with Bruce gets a date.

And that’s all fuck all seeing how high Bruce’s standards are.

Loki wants to date Mobius too, what can they say? They have a thing for literature guys. Unfortunately, Mobius can’t date until Bruce dates. And who better to bride into dating such a prude than his himbo jock secret enjoyer of Shakespeare and fantasy of a brother, Thor?

Hear. Me. Out.

EVERYONE AND THEIR MOTHER HEAR ME THE FUCK OUT ON A “10 THINGS I HATE ABOUT YOU” AU WITH THORBRUCE, BRAINSTORM, WTV THE FUCK WE’RE CALLING THEM.

PLEASE. BRUCE AS KAT. THOR AS PATRICK. HEAR. ME. OUTTTTTTTTTT. PLEASE. I BEG.

Causally reminding you of this because I STILL stand by this theory.

You're probably not gonna listen, but allow me to explain why The Moon Will Sing by The Crane Wives is Jevon coded.

The common this fandom has used to explain Jevon is with planets or anything astronomical related.

Devon is either the moon or a star, and Jake is the sun or an astronaut, or commonly he's the moon and Devon is the sun.

The Moon Will Sing tackles this metaphor and holds it in a chokehold, because truth be told; the moon doesn't have light. No, the sun reflects its own light onto the moon so the moon can produce what we call "moonlight" and Devon actually seems pretty moon coded, if you really think.

And the sun and moon don't follow each other, the moon follows the sun. So for this fandom to take that analogy and make it into a romantic trope actually says some pretty sad but inevitably true things about the relationship between Jake and Devon.

This song can perfectly explain S1 and 2, and possibly three. This song in question feels like Devon finally realizing that he could've been anything and anyone but instead he chose to blindly follow his partner, even if he didn't know where they were going. In his confession, he says that he's always been with Jake every step of the way, so this checks out.

Devon feels that his identity itself has sadly become entirely up to Jake, and is sad and resentful of that single fact. In S2, he basically tells us that he feels that he's been completely robbed of a life he wanted to live, but was unable to. And while Jake exerts an unhealthy level of control of Devon's life, Devon probably sees it as a normal couple thing and Jake probably isn't aware of it because his father had an unhealthy level of control over his life as well.

Although Devon seems tired of following Jake and only shining with his light, he feels the only good and beautiful parts of him and his life that are worth looking at is because of Jake, which is why he doesn't want to leave the relationship that is slowly becoming a little toxic.

This is why in some scenes, like S1, Devon is always full of light or near some type of light or in the sunlight, that's how Jake sees him.

But in S2, Devon is more represented with the moon, and darkness, symbolizing that Jake only saw him as the moon; someone who would follow him and couldn't shine without his light, or without his love.

In S3, both Jake and Devon are always both in the dark or they're both in the light, meaning Jake and Devon finally sees them equals, and they're no longer having a weird power dynamic in their relationship.

I feel like in S2, Devon was probably (hopefully) purposefully put in dark places or in the moonlight because he resides in it, and the moon and Devon himself have similar struggles; following their bright partners blindly and not being able to shine or have an identity without their partners help, but not quite ready to leave or speak up about it yet.

There's no doubt in my mind Devon had some pretty harsh things to say about the dynamic in their relationship in S2, but I'm glad he semi-spoke up and Jake filled in the blanks of his speaking up for him.

We gotta admit, this show is in Jake's POV. We're kinda watching through his and other's eyes, but when it comes to his family, we're mostly watching through his POV So I'm actually kinda happy that Jake and Devon are finally either in the dark together or in the sun together; a ride or die relationship that they both deserve.

Or maybe none of this is true, I'm delusional ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This analysis is insane and amazing and I just know that Don is nowhere near as smart or creative enough to think like you do—

[anders-chr]

Bro, I just had such an amazing idea for the Yellowjackets.

Everytime someone dies (in a hunt, due to natural causes, trying to get help, etc.), we get that moment that RIGHT before they die, they look straight at the camera. Even Lottie is almost beaten to death, she looks straight at the camera and says, “I see you.”

Because one of the biggest plot twists would and could be that WE are the wilderness. WE are the ones watching them, hearing them, WE know exactly what happened in those woods that only the girls and the wilderness would know.

“We hear the wilderness and it hears us” would be so fucking cool if the audience was the “wilderness”.

[anders-chr]

we just ok with the fact that the internet exists as its own entity? like, it can cancel you, dox you, or help you…

it’s not just a cyberspace anymore. it is a creature

[anders-chr]

Casually reminding you that you should totally do that. /nm /nf

Anyways another idea; all somewhat healthy ships in PJO has something called interactional synchrony. Basically, they copy each other’s body language subconsciously a LOT and reflect them in little ways. Percy and Annabeth have the same head tilt, Frank and Hazel usually smile at the same time, Nico and Will have similar nose scrunches and both Jason and Leo bit the inside of their cheeks while thinking.

Worse yet cutest part? They will never know until someone points it out and then all of these new tics and behaviors they adopted being around their person kinda start to make sense.

I love them.

HC: Valgrace match each other’s freak on such a level, it’s insane. Jason gets pinned down by a monster, old wolf instincts takes over and he bites the monster’s throat out. Everyone is clutching their pearls but Leo just yells “HOLY SHIT!” and looks damn near delighted because that was so cool.

One of Leo’s inventions explode a monster, covers the main seven ALL in monster blood. While Percy is thinking “I’ll never be clean again.”, Leo and Jason are turning to each other with wide smiles and giggles.

They match each other’s freak, your honor.

AWWW OMG

i lowkey wanna draw this

[anders-chr]

AUTHOR ALSO FUCKING ATE?? WTH??

The fact that nobody has written a GammaHammer (or whatever the fuck were calling it) fanfic with Thor getting drunk and Bruce having to take care of him and Thor kissing him but Bruce just pulls away and says “Real nice, big guy. But I wish you were sober.” IS A CRIME.
