I'm not even necessarily a stancy shipper, but calling steve a homewrecker after he was sort of cheated on by nancy with jonathan is actually crazy 😭😭

Will & Steve

So something that’s been on my mind lately is how Milevens mostly prefer Stancy while Bylers mostly prefer Jancy – why?

Well, early on they have a lot in common.  They’re both earlygame ships that slowburn sink because the Duffers like to put characters in failed relationships before they get their sweet, sweet endgame pairing.  So El = Steve, Mike = Nancy, and Will = Jonathan.  That makes sense.

BUT!

Later on, after the Stancy breakup and Jancy get together, Steve is if anything more like Will.  All the things certain people love to scorn Will for – that he's a "moping crybaby", that he “needs to move on”, that he’s a “homewrecker”, that he’s a “selfish brat” – I’ve never heard anyone say any of this stuff about Steve. I mean, if anyone's a homewrecker, it's Steve with Jancy. Will's the glue stopping Mileven from completely imploding.

Why the double standard?  Seems to me like the people criticising Will for his behaviour don’t actually have a problem with his perfectly acceptable behaviour and it’s just a smokescreen for not liking him period?  Haters gonna hate I guess.

Luther Hargreeves

I’m just gonna come out and say it. Luther Hargreeves was just as traumatized as his siblings.

Everyone hates him in the first season, but that’s mostly bc that’s bc he was still being manipulated by Reg!n@ld Hargreeves. He was manipulated the longest, and the most bc of the added pressure of being number one. He was forced to grow up, to be the leader, while his siblings had similar pressure to please their father, he had it the most. He was number one, the leader, the role model, of course he acted the way he did. And compare it with the fact that he never actually got to experience the world. The rest of the siblings got to leave, and live normal lives, but he didn’t. Granted, he stayed willingly, but how could he leave? And disappoint his father? Leave him alone? He would rather die.

And the fandom mocks him for the whole ‘dad sent me to the moon :(‘ thing, but imagine you find out the man you idolized, worshiped, spent your entire life trying to please, sent you to the moon for no reason. No reason at all. Just to get rid of you, after you were the only one of your siblings to stay, to continue to be ‘loyal’ (I’m aware some ppl think Reggie did it for a reason bc Victor blew up the moon but Luthor didn’t know that) Ppl don’t realize, he was on the moon for FOUR YEARS. Four years of solitary confinement, four years of neglect, not human contact, on a planet where you couldn’t breathe, couldn’t go outside without being in full gear. He was alone for years on the MOON bc he though his dad had a good reason.

So finding out (or at least believing) that his dad sent him to the moon for no reason, and never even opened your reports or anything, of course he was angry! Of course he was upset! The rest of the Hargreeves siblings had years to think about their trauma bc they left, but he didn’t. Luther never thought his trauma was more important, it was just more recent.

And ppl hate him for locking Victor up for the ‘greater good’ in season one, but ppl don’t realize is that he was raised to protect ppl by all means necessary. If that meant locking up your brother in a dungeon, so be it. Also, Victor literally slit Alison’s throat. Ppl ignore this but that left all of them with lasting effects, like I don’t ship Luther x Alison but like that’s still gonna mess them up. And the same Luther Hargreeves wanted to throw Victor a coming out party to make sure he felt loved.

His trauma doesn’t excuse his actions, but he grew past them. Luther Hargreeves isn’t a bad person, he was manipulated by Reg!n@ld Hargreeves and is just as traumatized and abused as his siblings (bc ranking trauma is STUPID)

FIVE GETS HIS FUCKING HUG

this is the best day of my life

[fcking-fudge-nutter]

i say i like tragedies and everyone’s all like ‘why do you like sad stories? are you depressed?’ and never ‘how was the catharsis? was the catharsis fun?’

[fcking-fudge-nutter]

i can't believe the umbrella academy hasn't done a time loop episode. i wanna see five lose his mind and not even consider telling any of his siblings what's happening until like the 74th loop

I really love the idea of romanticising life but not in a way perceived on social media where it all feels like a compulsion of looking cute, clicking cute pictures and loving things. Honestly romanticising doesn't mean any of that, it's not about loving things forcefully but about appreciating things. It's about finding beauty in the chaos and celebrating it instead of waiting for a perfect moment or a perfect place. The idea of romanticising life is more about finding moments of peace in your daily life instead of wishing to escape your life. It could be you just drinking a cup of coffee on a morning but without any anxiety in your gut, it could be the colourful sky at the time of sunset, it could be you journaling in your cute diary, it could be the whispers of gentle breeze, it could be a mere look at the sky. Romanticism saves people by actually filling people up with so much of gratitude for everything and everyone.

Robin Buckley canon theater kid is so untapped and underappreciated. I bet she makes Steve run lines with her all the time. She can probably cry on command, too. It's no wonder she came up with that story in Pennhurst at the drop of a hat, she's been preparing for that improv moment her entire highschool career.
