Sometimes I think about Robert De Niro’s small rôle in Brazil (1985, dir. Terry Gilliam). (Incredibly small spoilers about Brazil follow.)
De Niro plays a hypercompetent renegade highly wanted by the dystopian authorities. He has a level of sneak and cinematic urban-superhero transport powers that really remind one of Batman. And what is he doing with these powers?
He is fixing people’s HVAC systems.
In a world where people mostly appear to live in tiny, poorly designed apartments maintained by a venal and inefficient bureaucracy, he is risking his life to make people’s homes livable by fixing their heating and air conditioning.
I dunno, I just think about that. You can daydream about being the big hero who changes everything by yourself, or you can just pick up tools and become an actual small hero by helping actual people in actual ways.

professor acted like i was an annoying idiot for bringing up kuru when we were talking abt prion dieases in class today do u think i should kill him
i'm sure he was simply afraid to let his excitement and passion show and so chose to overcompensate, you're good
#ah honey my honey:')#i have to#fix things#i want to#just know i still check what's going on every other day#also really dw i also got the professor angry with me at how i wouldn't let the topic go in a discussion and insisted we have to define#morality and ethics#in a certain context#i think he really was done with me#but at the end of the day professors prefer this#than someone not quite registering what's even being said#love. 💙#answered#anon

@fatedtruths x Fitz
She vaguely remembered horrified voices, a woman assuring her that they got her now, gentle hands on her cuffs, before everything had gone black again. Her last punishment had been particularly ferocious, but the sight of a stranger in a very bright room with utensils and machinery, and the even scarier feeling of a mattress, somehow gave her enough strength to move. So Ada very nearly jumped, pressing herself against a cold wall behind her, gaze moving from him to the bed and then back to him with obvious fear. "Don't." It wasn't exactly begging but the confusion had brought her very close to that, "I won't do it again, you don't have to do this..." It had to be because of the guard she had bitten. Bargain. "I learned my lesson."
#I MISSED YOU LOUISE#she's still a little fuzzy on the fact that she's been rescued. coulson: idk if she's an alien but SURELY she'll stay unconscious go fitz#ada who is used to torture: HELLO#v. marvel#fatedtruths#fix things

Whoever conceived and animated this moment, I hope they're doing well and thriving. This is S-rank romance stuff here.
#the ship overall is C to A tier#but it's things like THIS that push it up toward the A#titan ae#titan a.e.#cale#akima#it just...#starts with them chilling together being comfortable in each other's space#that would be enough that's a point there#then she goes and HANDS HIM THE SANDWICH SHE'S EATING#sharing their food#that's another one#and she does it because his hands are busy so he can't feed himself#so that's a third point#and she does it WITHOUT LOOKING AT HIM which is a FOURTH point#and he bites into it without request or invitation so that's a FIFTH point#and then he TAKES THE WHOLE SANDWICH AND GULPS IT DOWN LIKE A LIZARD#which is a SIXTH point#and jumps it up to SEVEN because she pulls her fingers free and finally looks at him and yells at him#IT'S A SEVEN-POINT ROMANCE COMBO#do you know how utterly rare those are?#those are generally earned through KISS scenes where the hands move and the heads touch and maybe there's a spin#they achieved a seven-point romance combo by SHARING A SANDWICH#fixing machines and sharing lunch URRRRRRRRRRRRGHHHHH
