#…also if your parents were murdered by a colonizer paramilitary i think you should be allowed to be a little unhinged.

[r-osehips]

just watched angels & demons (a perfect airplane movie) and i really think they just should have let ewan macgregor become pope after he did all that. like, if you:

kill the pope without arousing any suspicion

design a bunch of very metal ambigrams

go to great expense to hire a highly competent assassin; then kill that assassin without him seeing it coming

plan four murders that the phantom of the opera himself could not outdo in terms of aesthetic, drama, and doomfulness

risk your life to fly a jar of antimatter into the sky in a helicopter

parachute out of said helicopter, backlit by the coolest and most beautiful explosion ever seen, and not only survive but land perfectly and dramatically on the steps of the vatacin

literally brand yourself with a brand you had custom made for that purpose

manipulate hundreds of cardinals with your pleasing manner and dutiful acts

all while being a clean-shaven, soft-spoken ewan mcgregor who was tragically orphaned by the UVF?

you should get to be pope.
