if a supervillain said "you wont kill me thatd make you just like me" i would simply say "no it wouldnt id be saving millions of people" and the villain would say "but youd be dooming yourself. could you really live knowing youre a killer" and id say "well id certainly have trouble. ill probably be very sad about it. definitely a lot to unpack" and theyd say "so you wont do it" and id say "oh no im still gonna" and theyd say "what" and id say "youre a supervillain responsible for countless deaths and yet here you are desperately trying to bargain for your life. you want to live. which means you can easily live with yourself after being responsible for countless deaths. i, on the other hand, will at the very least have tremendous difficulty with even killing just one person and at worst might just jump out a window right after i do it. the very nature of this whole conversation about whether we are the same has proven to me we are very much not the same and i am certain killing you to save millions is the morally correct decision here" and theyd say "what" and id say "get killed idiot"
Tiny baby Bruce being ignored at a gala because he's still in mourning and he only ever used to dance with his mom and so he doesn't know how! While Nora Fries comes right over and teaches him to dance, has a really sweet moment with him and lights up a little boy's night who desperately needed it, and it's emotional just for knowing what Bruce is going through on that night, but also this is why he believes so strongly in second chances.
This is the kind of thing that makes Bruce someone who remembers the good things that people did, that this is why he'll keep giving Freeze another chance, because if someone like Nora loved him, if he loved someone like Nora, then there must be something there. At this core, Bruce is fundamentally about believing there's something worthwhile in the world and fighting like hell for it, because of people like Nora Fries, who helped a little boy see the good in life again for that night.
Remembering when I went over to my female teacher's house in 5th grade and saw that she lived with another female teacher & went home going "wow, so teachers really do all live together!" & then my family had to explain to me what lesbians are
I love the labyrinth bc it’s a fantasy coming of age story about growing up and the main character says “goodbye” to all the whimsical creatures she made friends with on her journey. but then the last scene is like SIKE dance party with them all in her room!!!!! bc growing up doesn’t mean forfeiting fun or losing the wonder of your childhood
