Cecil: Donald the Superheroes are Unionizing.

[ambafaerie]

The worst thing about Robot taking Rex’s name is he did it out of good intentions. He cloned himself in Rex’s likeness because he wanted to look like the kind of guy Monster Girl would be attracted to and now he is throwing his original name and taking Rex’s name for himself to honor him. Both times he never asked for Rex’s permission to take his identity with Rex expressing his discomfort when he did find out about the clone. Rex previously confessed to Rae he had no secret identity - being a superhero was his entire identity and he died being a hero. Robot will grow up looking what Rex could have looked like if he got to be a fully grown adult, but he will betray and murder his allies and take over the world, so now no one will ever look at Rex’s appearance and name the same way ever again because Robot took his name and face and dragged it through the mud with his crimes.

Mild obsessed with Mercy and I wanna know more about her! What would you say her relationships with other heroes is like? Namely the current Guardians roster.

A couple of doodles to go with the answer (:

I talk about the events of the show including the latest episode (3x07) so don't read if you aren't caught up!

-immortal - bad. immortal started off with warning her that he's watching her every move, similar with mark. he doesnt trust the twins because he never trusted omni-man, and his distrust was clearly justified after the events of the first season. she thinks he's an egotistical asshole who doesn't care about anyone else because of his refusal to become attached to his teammates, he thinks she's a time bomb waiting to go off just like her dad and brother. more than anything, though - she hates that he keeps comparing her to her father. her dad is one topic that she's sensitive about and can get temperamental if he's brought up. she tries to just stay away from immortal most of the time because she's confident she'd just start fights with him every other conversation.

-black samson - okay! samson, to me, has the vibes of a guy who's trying to hold the team together as best as he can. he's a charming guy who seems to care about them, and he does his best to get to know each of them. mercy isn't part of the guardians of the globe roster, but she works with them often enough that he probably considers her an honorary member or something. mercy is pretty closed off to others trying to 'take care of her' because she's trying really hard to be seen as independent and mature, so i think she shakes his concern and compassion off most of the time. not too rudely, though - she appreciates his attempts to be friendly. she just wishes he'd be friendly in a 'this person is my ally and teammate' way instead of in a 'this is a child i need to protect' kind of way.

-bulletproof - okayish. i don't think they interact much with each other at all in the beginning. but considering bulletproof is the only other flyer that she works with on a regular basis, i think just them having convos as they fly to and from missions will go a long way to building a rapport - for no other reason than because it's something only they can do. they'd be work friends i think. getting along on the job, but not really talking much off the job. i think they could be good friends off the job too, both of them like art and being a hero, but Mercy is the one who isn't interested in getting to know him further. sorry man, let's keep it all strictly professional..

-rex - close friends. she kind of had a crush on him the first time they met, and then she realized he was dating eve so she backed off immediately. and then she learned he cheated on eve and hated him with a passion for a while. similar to immortal, she thought of rex as egotistical and a complete jerk for a long while. but of course after his near-death experience, he turned his personality around and started being less of an ass, so her opinion of him changed quite a bit. the only person on the team that Mercy actually hangs out with outside of the job - they're similar in age and can talk to each other about their struggles of being abandoned by a parent (or 2 in rex's case). i think it's interesting that they gave Rae and Rex a romance in the show, because if Rex didn't have a romance, she absolutely would have been interested in him again. Well... we know how it ends, so i guess it's better for her that she never let her feelings develop too far...

-robot and monstergirl - bunking them together because Mercy always sees them together so they're basically a duo in her mind. Robot is crazy intelligent and Mercy respects it, but his penchant to talk from multiple copies of his robots kind of creeps her out and interests her at the same time. Kinda wishes she could do that too lol. Mercy feels sympathy for Monstergirl because of her curse, and the few times they do talk they get along just fine. It's just that they don't talk often. They aren't on the same team together and they never interact outside of the job, so there's just not enough there to build a relationship of any kind off of.

-duplikate - they have an okay work relationship, but they're both headstrong people with very different views on things. i think one of them might throw a jab at the other and that's all it would take to start a fight between them. they do NOT talk outside of work, and in fact, only talk during work if they have to communicate during a fight. in the headquarters? they're not really interacting at all. Mercy rolls her eyes when she learns that Kate and Immortal are getting married because "yeah of course the asshole is marrying an asshole".

-shrinking rae - not as close as Rex, but Mercy and Rae could definitely get along pretty well. maybe if we get to learn more about Rae in the show I could see them being friends outside of the job as well, but for now they're just close coworkers.

-darkwing ii - lastly, darkwing 2. crush material, but very slow buildup. she didn't go on that mission when Mark took Darkwing in for murder, she only heard about it second-hand from Mark himself, so that might be why she's way more forgiving of his issues than she is willing to be for Sinclair(she saw Sinclair's labs and victims personally). she still thinks he's unstable in the beginning and generally avoids him for a while, which he definitely notices, but i think all it would take is one comment from him talking about his remorse for what he did, and she might be willing to stay and talk it over with him. a short debate about morals turns into a longer conversation about regrets and what they would change if they could go back... about how the things they've seen and done has changed them forever. i think the two of them could be very good friends.. and maybe more (: such a shame he disappeared so fast in the show, but maybe id change the story a little bit now that Mercy is here to save the day, heh...

Edit: I CANT BELIEVE I FORGOT SHAPESMITH.... He's my personal favorite hero on the guardians team, which of course means Ellie is going to like him too (: Another rare instance of Mercy allowing this coworker to hang out with her outside of the job. I think she'd be really interested in learning about his life on Mars, and in return she'd help him acclimate to life on Earth. Always bringing him little trinkets or candy from a dollar store, stuff like that lol. They would be the best of friends, I swear. He's not the best person to go to when she's looking to vent her frustrations about life and her issues, but he's always there to listen anyway, and she appreciates that.

I hate rudy

[miscellaneouzz]

So about that weird funeral at the end of Invincible season 3…

I think I have 2 main issues with the whole “take his name to honor him” thing from Rudy and why it just doesn’t hit or feel like a satisfying response to Rex’s sacrifice

1) How much it was already established that Rex was very uncomfortable and off put by Rudy cloning him without his consent. Like this isn’t just a friend trying to honor another friend, this guy literally stole his dna to make a child clone of Rex bc the girl Rudy liked found him attractive. He did not want any part of the creepy implications of their relationship. Now if it’s meant to be a “tragic irony” type of end to Rex’s character by having the character with identity issues open up about how his name is all he’s ever had bc his consent/agency was stripped from him only for him to then die and have the rest of his identity “taken” at his own funeral, ok I get it Robert Kirkman loves his tragedy but then that leads me into my second issue…

2) Rudy’s weird choices and lack of social understanding due to his experience make sense from a character perspective but the way it’s handled aka not questioned/addressed more makes it harder to get behind that scene from a writing perspective. Now I haven’t read the comics yet so idk where this storyline is gonna go but as of right now it’s a very bizarre writing choice that when he does this, everyone is so… chill with it. Bulletproof pointed out how weird the cloning thing was last season, and everyone else was like “WTF this is weird and creepy” when Rudy revealed it the first time so why is everyone so chill with him doubling down at his funeral? Amanda and Rae were literally the two who joined Rex in standing up to Cecil and starting a new team. We got to see Rex bond more with those two than we saw him bond with Rudy. So Monster Girl just immediately saying “I love you Rex” in front of his casket while Rae is alone crying in the back before we move on just felt like the most uncomfortably bizarre epilogue to a major character death.

Like I see some people not thrilled about the lack of emotion from Mark at the funeral, but ultimately him just being happy/relieved Eve is alive is a more understandable narrative decision because of what was previously established. In season 2 we learn that Rex wants Mark to be in a happy relationship, even offering to cover for him on missions so he can have a day off. Season 3 literally started with Rex trying to set Mark and Eve up together, and despite goofing around/acting snarky he says it’s because they’re both his friends and he wants them to be happy. So Marks response felt like a more appropriate bookend to their bond. But again, I’ve yet to read the comics so we’ll see where this goes…

#HI MR INVINCIBLE SIR #I SWEAR ALL MY A/B/O FICS WERE WRITTEN OUT OF LOVE

🌙 artemislover Follow

Can't believe I have to say this, but can you guys please stop making Omni-Man x Immortal theories?!?!

Ik you think the idea of them having been romantically involved is funny, but c'mon, people

It is true that there should be more openly queer superheroes, but the fact that there are people who genuinely believe they fucked is wild...

Besides, we have to stop following the lives of superheroes that closely. They deserve to get some privacy too! They're still people

Also, didn't Omni-Man once mention his wife?? And son?? Shipping him w a man when he's clearly straight and in an established relationship is stupid

🌟 notsovinciblenow Follow

I decided to listen to her. She was very persuasive.
