just remembered that the defenders were not the found family i’ve convinced myself they were to be. like wdym they don’t all reluctantly get together on thanksgiving. wdym colleen and matt don’t occasionally team up or chat on rooftops while they’re on patrol. wdym karen and jess don’t become close friends. wdym luke and danny don’t hang out often. wdym they all didn’t get together for colleen and danny’s wedding. wdym foggy and luke aren’t kind of friends. wdym colleen misty and claire don’t go to bars together.
wdym that they aren’t the definition of “anyway don’t be a stranger.”
like i literally convinced myself theyre like the crows in soc but like .. it’s simply not true and i. ☹️
will literally start posting found family au / post defenders fix it fics soon here i swear i cant do this. pls send me little scenarios with defenders you want to see written because i will do it

I also feel like all the terrible things Allison did in season 3 to get Claire back, in terms of like eroding her own morals and ethics, should have been held up as a mirror to Reginald doing the same for Abigail to actually make the theme hit.
Like that conversation on the bench between Reginald and Abigail feels like it's meant to be the central thesis of the show, and it kind of is - some things cannot be fixed, they cannot be undone, and by trying to do so all you are going to do is damage yourself and others further.
But because Abigail kind of only exists on screen for a grand total of 5 minutes (and no I do not count her scenes wearing Sy) there is no real impact because we don't see any emotional reactions from her or about her. We don't see Reginals actions being motivated by her loss because we never really get to know him as character, he's only a plot device.
It's my problem all over with this season - the plot is there, but there is no emotional resonance. In season 1 we felt Viktor's simmering rage, Allison's regret, Luthors isolation and so on. Ben's true death, Allison's expiriences fighting for civil rights, and Klaus's scenes with Dave in Season 2 hurt. Even season 3 has it's moments. But in this season what should be big emotional moments just....dissapate into nothing because none of the characters have any sort of true emotional reaction to them, so they have no impact.
Like we can look at the seperate pieces of the story and see what they wanted to do with a storyline about cycles of abuse and regret, they wanted to do a story about emotion, but it rings hollow this season because outside of the worlds most hateful love triangle, nothing is actually dealt with emotionally
Sometimes I forget about the fact that Morpheus can very easily be seen as the villain in The Sandman. Like at the very least he’s extremely morally gray, but the stuff that he does can easily rip him into “villain” territory.
I kind of referenced this idea in my first drawing of Claire further down my page but I love it so MUCH -
I imagine they have a more friendly relationship with each other than the main 3 ? But they aren’t usually as chipper as they are in the actual episode - they’ve just spoken with the Carehound too much to feel anything but the joy of employment :)
why can't they stop writing for the lame ( leon ) and start writing for the hot ones ( lara, claire and lara THERE'S NO LARA FANFIC HERE OR IN AO3 😭)
i love leon but i swear…?? i need more content for the ladies, they deserve the hype just as much as he does, sick and tired 😭😭😭
especially for lara as well, her lack of writing IS SO ANNOYING EXCUSE MEEEE— she has such a huge fan base but then looking her up X reader is none existent i’d definitely cry over this. c ai isn’t enough especially since it has sensory filters, drying up over here.
