I’m so proud of people living with chronic health conditions. That shit is HARD. Idk who needs to hear this, but if no one else has said it: I’m proud of you. You’re sticking it out through so much pain and grief. That’s no small feat.

Every small thing you do for yourself health adds up. The grief is heavy and it comes from a place of love. The grief knows the pain is wronging you.

I’m proud of you. I hope on the good days you can be proud of yourself.

Keep going.

one of my favorite tropes is when the villain has a pet that really likes the hero, so you can imagine my joy watching this movie

[guess1mjustheren0w]

Everything is like “QUEER history” and “List of QUEER young adult books” or “Top 10 QUEER movies” and queer this and queer that and for the love of god please just say LGBT.

It’s incredibly important to me that the anime decided to include this scene that wasn’t in the manga. In the manga, Maomao does pass out in Jinshi’s lap after saving him from what was obviously an assassination attempt.

HOWEVER, the manga cuts off at this point, keeping strictly in Maomao’s perspective, and cuts straight to when she regains consciousness in bed after being treated for her injuries. The manga doesn’t show how she got back. They SAY how, and she briefly mentions, “wow that must have been embarrassing; he carried me back,” but we don’t SEE it. We don’t get to feel the true impact of what that means. But the anime DID show us, and holy shit.

They SHOW us how taboo this is. They show Jinshi carrying her out of the temple, after a public attempt on his life.

They show us the shock and horror on Lakan’s face as Jinshi silently walks past him. Horror at the state his daughter is in, horror at another man—a man with a status he could never dare to question—staking such a public claim over his child, horror at the fact that he could never have this level of closeness with her (as Maomao would never allow it).

Everyone hides their gazes, as is their custom when someone of his rank passes by, but the air is different this time. Jinshi is furious, he’s terrified, and he could not give a single shit about how inappropriate it looks to these palace officials.

The shot that slowly follows her trail of blood—even though it’s a small detail—that in particular leaves such a intense impression of how poignant this is for him.

Maomao talked about this scene in the manga like it was nothing to her. She did what she set out to do: she saved the person who was targeted by the attack. She didn’t even know the target would be someone she knew. But she has no idea that this happened afterwards as a result of her bravery. To her, it likely wasn’t even an act of bravery at all. She acted on impulse; she did what she knew was the right thing to do.

The anime didn’t need to include this, because the manga didn’t show it. But damn, I’m so glad they did.

This is just to reiterate, his shield is not vibranium. It is just a metal disc that you can see him wind up his whole arm and shoulder to launch as hard as possible. When you see Sam or Steve throw the official shield it’s so much easier to flick out, not much power required. John’s launching what is essentially a manhole cover at people with super soldier strength.

if you're writing and find yourself thinking 'this is too weird/gross/offputting/esoteric/ambitious/catered to my specific interests + sure to push away a broader audience' that is the devil speaking and it is a lie. you are already firmly on the right path and you need to double down

Headcanon.

John has lollipops for kids. The team is pleasantly surprised to see that John is good with kids.

He was so excited to be a dad. His mental health was what rocked him to the point of not being present. He hates himself for this

But John loves kids, he likes to make silly faces in the store to get a reaction, randomly ALWAYS has candy on him to give out, will stop what he’s doing to engage with a child no matter their age if they want his attention, and is a HUGE advocate for children’s health and wellbeing.

Alexei sees his inner turmoil at the inability to be close to his own son, but after he starts getting visitation and then also works it out with Olivia to swap on and off the team sees a whole new person. Yelena has known that person existed all along, Bucky feels like he’s watching a memory unfold in front of him and often forgets Lemar isn’t around the corner.

BUT YEAH he has lollipops for kids

I firmly believe that Jin Guangyao and Jiang Cheng have no beef with each other for the majority of the timeskip. They both have traits that the other values in allies, if not necessarily in friends:

Jin Guangyao is extremely appropriate, considerate, hardworking, and never makes social situations worse than they have to be. I don't think Jiang Cheng would care that he has schemes or a fake smile because that's just everyone in the political world; it's not as if he has any delusions that the other high-ranking gentry are being fully honest and sincere with him either. On the contrary, he would pretty much respect the work ethic and understand that sometimes you have to do shit to get your dad to like you even when you know it won't work. In short, Jin Guangyao is unlikely to do anything to piss Jiang Cheng off, and at least is very kind to Jin Ling.

On the other side, Jiang Cheng is a man who is just not very dangerous if you understand him. You can say he's a man with a predictable temper, or you can call him easy to manipulate; either way, this works in Jin Guangyao's favour. Jiang Cheng is aware of Jin Guangyao's various social disadvantages, but is too pragmatic to try and exploit them, and is too single-issue to be a significant political opponent. While he does come from privilege, his personal life is so tragic that I don't think Jin Guangyao would feel moved to envy or resent him for his social standing, and at the same time he's a sect leader who actually does work instead of foisting it off on his servants or onto Jin Guangyao himself. In short, Jiang Cheng does not pose a threat to Jin Guangyao, and at least is very kind to Jin Ling.

Does this make them besties? That depends on how deep I am in the Chengyao sauce on any given day, but for sure they are not enemies up until the shit has hit the fan post-timeskip.

John: Bob asked! What the fuck was I supposed to say!?!? No!?!?

Ava: So what’s for dinner? John: I can’t tell you, it’s a soup-prise! Ava: … Ava: Is it soup? John: I soup-pose it could be! *winks* Ava: Please, enough with the soup puns! John: Wow, you’re soup-per mean. Ava: STOP! *one hour later* Ava: It’s fucking tacos?!?!?!

John who grew up on a farm: I am the chicken tender

Bob, still up at 3AM: If you work on a farm and your job is to take care of the chickens, you are a chicken tender.
