English is not my native language, so I apologize for any mistake and if you can help me improve it, I will greatly appreciate it. I hope you enjoy it :D

"Surrender and let me end your suffering."

The words of The Scarlet Witch could hurt you inside, even though you were aware of that double meaning that she had used when speaking to you. It was your determination and your hope of being able to save your friends that were making you act in that way so little predictable and erratic, you may even later receive a strong scolding from Professor Xavier, but you would risk suffering the consequences if your colleagues remained unharmed by the attacks of that woman who wanted to get to the girl who was in your facilities and suddenly had landed in your universe.

You would never have believed that anyone was sufficiently consumed by the Darkhold until you met Wanda and heard about her from the new Doctor Strange who had magically appeared.

Suddenly, during your fantasy morning routine where you stay home for part of the day, you received an unexpected call from your best friend, Reed Richards, who informed you about the arrival of two people from a different universe, being something that didn't particularly catch your attention until he mentioned that one of them was a new Doctor Strange who wasn't yours; it didn't take you more than two minutes to be at the main base of The Illuminati, the group that had been formed with some of the masterminds of the known universe.

A new Doctor Strange was there, in front of your eyes, warning of a threat even greater than himself, much greater than any of the villains you'd once faced, and it wasn't until you saw Wanda Maximoff through the monitors installed in the base, that you finally got going to try to stop it.

Now the situation had gotten out of control and, in an attempt to make you see to what extent her power was aggressive enough. She had ended the life of one of your companions in the most horrifying way possible; Black Bolt, known to be the king of the Inhumans, tried to stop her with just a scream, obtaining death by disappearing his mouth and panicking about it, causing several of his organs to explode internally due to the loudness and strength of his voice and causing him to drop dead on the ground with half a skull cracked, leaving you all frozen, obviously preparing for the attack.

"I can't let you do this, even if your reason is fair enough," you murmured. "You may have lost loved ones, but it is no excuse to do this."

You could barely make out his bloody figure through the lightning you had both faced, merging the green coming from you with the red coming out of her hands, creating a continuous clash with your powers that had easily come to nothing; you were not the most powerful of your companions, you were aware of your limitations, but you knew that now you had to trust yourself more than ever to be able to defeat the villain, even if your life hung by a thread.

"Tell me you wouldn't like to be with the people you love," Wanda spoke as she gradually stopped her power, trying to make you understand that you should have a little truce. "Make me see that you are happy even if your wish is not fulfilled."

You understood that those words would bring with them some kind of proposal that, although it was true that you would reject instantly, at least you hoped that it would bring with it some kind of long and continuous talk that would allow the rest of your friends to put together a plan where you would come out winners or, failing that, you could run away with Cristine and the girl from another universe.

"What do you mean by that?" You asked, watching Reed take a step towards you out of the corner of your eye.

"I'll explain it to you if your friends don't interrupt us," she answered as he looked over your shoulder at Mr Fantastic, "tell them to stay calm, I have no intention of attacking while you don't do anything that could cause your death."

You took a long and shaky breath, afraid of doing something wrong, turning around so you could make eye contact with your teammates who seemed ready to attack at any moment to get you out of the situation. You made a sign with your hands to calm down and trust what you were about to do; these were critical moments, and unless you timed your words correctly, you knew it was very likely that within seconds you would all be dead.

"They won't attack," you assured, turning to the witch to be able to talk with her and give your companions time to come up with a good plan, "now explain what you meant by that."

Wanda extended her right hand towards you, obviously to take it, but it was Reed's hand that caused you to not be able to take a step towards the woman, seeing how he was worried and distrustful of the situation; you wanted to assure him that everything would be fine, that it would surely end in a matter of minutes and that Wanda would disappear by the magic of friendship or whatever absurd thing you could think of, but you were not even sure that you could get out of that situation alive.

Your thumb slid over his slowly to calm his nerves, feeling the warmth that his body gave off even with the suit on and allowing that sensation of tranquillity that his closeness would always have caused you to transfer to your body. Your eyes made contact with his, being able to distinguish that characteristic shine full of concern in him, but you gave him one of your sweet smiles that, somehow, relieved the tension he felt after having seen how willing you were to sacrifice your life for them and the multiverse.

Always, you didn't know how, you had had that special connection that you never managed to label, but that had always helped in situations where fear, pressure and tension were the protagonists.

Slowly, you let your hand slide through hers until you freed yourself from her grasp and walked towards The Scarlet Witch seriously and haughtily, hoping to cause some kind of intimidation in her, but her outstretched hand did not seem hesitant.

You didn't feel any kind of pain when you made contact with her, just a strong dizziness product of the trance in which she was submerging you thanks to her powers.

(…)

The strong dizziness, the product of Wanda's magic, made you look for something to hold on to, forcing you to move your hands to the first thing in front of you, finding yourself with the surprise of being clutched to the surface a whitish polka-dotted countertop blackish that you did not swear to have seen in your life, confusing you by the sudden change of scenery that had formed around you.

While you tried to control your breathing and regain your balance, you kept your eyes closed to calm down while you felt on your skin and fingertips the different sensations that the new scenario caused you. The coldness of the countertop with the warmth that it crawled slowly through your body, it made you understand that you were in a house, specifically in a kitchen.

And you were not wrong.

Around you, you could see a huge refrigerator, the ceramic hob, several upper shelves where large crockery was proudly displayed and a large number of drawers where the utensils to make different types of meals should be found, in addition to the electronic devices around you they could point out that you weren't in your usual home because you'd never had enough money to have a kitchen this big with all that knick-knack, and if you'd had enough money, it never really appealed to you to live in a mansion with a huge kitchen. You had never seen that room, you were not able to recognize it and, even if you tried to say where you were, there was nothing else besides the magnets on the fridge that could give you a clue.

You were completely lost.

You looked at yourself and the soft pyjamas you were wearing made you smile because at least the clothes looked familiar to you and you couldn't help but be happy that something seemed familiar to you, of course, it was the small and simple ring on your left hand what confused you. You knew that the engagement one was on the right, the married one on the left, but you swore you hadn't been with anyone in recent years and you weren't completely ready for someone to propose to you.

"Sweetie?"

That voice, usually strong and self-confident, now sweet and calm, made your heart melt, especially because of the affectionate nickname that had come from her lips.

There, behind you and on the other side of the huge table that ran through the kitchen, was the tall figure of Reed who, worried that he had called you a couple of times from the living room and had not received any answer except for the fall of something similar to a plate, had approached the kitchen to see if something had happened to you while you were putting what was in the dishwasher, finding with the surprise that there was one of the plates shattered on the floor, possibly having broken when you had reached that illusion.

"What?"

The whisper coming from your lips worried him even more that maybe you had hit yourself and had a concussion but, rounding the centre kitchen table, he found the little mess at your feet, making him smile when he saw his suspicions had been confirmed. You had broken a plate and you intended to throw it before he did, as had happened to you the previous four times.

"If you needed help, you just had to tell me," he said before moving closer to the pottery on the floor, reaching his hand toward your head so he could slowly stroke your hair. "You haven't cut yourself, have you?"

Nothing came out of your mouth but unintelligible murmurs, causing the characteristic laugh that had always caused butterflies in your stomach to come out of him.

"I'm fine," you assured me when you noticed his extensible hands at the height of your waist that helped you to sit on the counter, "I can do it."

"I'm sure of that," he spoke, placing himself between your legs and avoiding the pieces of the broken plate to be closer to you, "but I don't want you to cut yourself, again."

That innate concern in him made you happy because you felt for a moment that he especially cared for you, but he left you speechless when he gently planted his lips on yours, creating a short but sweet kiss that caused you to turn red in a matter of seconds, plus his subsequent wink at the state he had left you in made you stutter.

"You've dreamed of this a million times, right?

The female voice next to you alerted you, making you hurry down from the counter to bump into Reed, who suddenly vanished in a cloud of red, leaving him disoriented and worried.

"What is this?" You asked with fear, taking a couple of steps back to put a little distance between you and the witch.

"This has always been your dream, to have a life with him, hasn't it?" She questioned, making you groan under your breath. "Don't get defensive, I just want to let you know that if you help me get America's powers I can give you this life in another universe."

"I know that dreams are windows to another universe, and I would love to be with him, but I am aware that something very bad would happen," you spoke. "What would I do with myself from that universe? I couldn't destroy it and I doubt Reed would be foolish enough to think that I in my universe is the same as his."

"Your self in this universe wouldn't know about it," she intervened. "It wouldn't destroy itself, you'd just take over his body, so you wouldn't need to kill anyone,” she explained. "You would replace her, you would have his life and everything you ever wanted, the man of your dreams and the loved family and, honestly, I would never intervene in it if you agree to help me."

Wanda's proposal was clear: Your most cherished desire in exchange for a betrayal.

(…)

You suddenly opened your eyes, blinking a few times as you felt Wanda's hands slide through yours until they released you, allowing you to take a step back and have some space to come back to yourself.

"I understand that you want to offer me something that you also yearn for," you began. "You want to be with the people you love, but this is not the way, and even if you try to trick me into helping you by offering me the life I want, I would never betray the people I love, I don't care what universe it is in."

Wanda frowned.

"You should understand my pain," she spoke angrily, her voice trembling and her eyes turning red. "He will never love you in this universe, you will never find happiness being here, and I can give it to you if you help me."

"I don't care," you said, "as long as he's happy, so am I."

For Wanda that was the trigger, she knew that you would never be on her side.

The Illuminati had been able to observe and listen to your interaction with Wanda and, although they had not been able to see what you had experienced nor had they been able to observe your facial expressions, they were aware of that wish that you wanted so much to fulfil and that you could not achieve in the first place this universe and they only had to look at Reed to realize that he had understood it too. You only had to see the way you looked at him to know that all you wanted was to be with the man of your dreams, even if it was too late for that.

The group, hearing your words, confirmed their suspicions, and it was the explosion of light that almost made them fall to the ground because both you and Wanda, in an attempt to do your jobs, pushed your powers to the maximum to defeat the other, causing not only everything around you to tremble but also your physique to change; auras of different colours surrounded you and your eyes shone with intensity to the point where perfectly, in a dark room, it could be the only thing that would be seen.

"Go away, I won't be able to contain her for the rest of my life!"

Your voice, louder than ever this time, startled the heroes, causing them to look at each other.

"What do you mean?" Carter asked. "We are a team. We stand together."

"And I refuse to let you die like Black Bolt!" You exclaimed, holding your hands out in front of you. "The only thing I ask of you is that you go away, it's the only thing I want most right now!"

Reed, who was closest to you, could distinguish the small tears that came out of your eyes and that disintegrated in the air as a result of the shock wave that had remained since this second attack began, so he only looked at his companions to make them understand that they should try to save you, create some kind of distraction so that you could run away with them because, as expected, he would never leave you behind.

"We can't leave," Reed spoke up. "We can defeat her if we unite."

"Without a plan, we can't do anything," Captain Marvel murmured as she bit her lower lip. "It's the only way."

"She's asking us to abandon her," Richard intervened again, seeing how you backed away a few centimetres from your initial position due to the lack of strength you were beginning to have, "we can't leave her here."

Both women were struggling internally.

They were aware that you couldn't fight Wanda alone, that they could help you save the multiverse, but it was also true that they had no battle plan to fight against that witch and that they could all die trying; in any of the different situations, someone died.

Reed didn't want his best friend to die, but he couldn't take down Wanda with you alone.

"What are you waiting for!?"

Your screams, exclamations and growls finally made them make up their minds, and they would be miserable for the rest of their lives for not being able to save your life, but they also knew your limitations, and they knew you wouldn't last much longer on your feet.

Time was running out for them.

The women watched your static figure in the middle of the room, just going to the main lab without saying goodbye knowing that it would be too much for them to leave you there, and they already felt selfish for having promised to protect the entire universe but not being able to protect you.

Reed, on the other hand, watched your petite figure struggle against the force that Wanda was exerting on you without any shred of compassion while you stood with very little stability. You were getting further and further behind, and you were reaching a point where you couldn't take it anymore, where you were ready to accept your fate and surrender to Wanda, but seeing your friend's tear-filled eyes was what surprised you.

You thought one last look back wouldn't hurt but seeing him fall apart was the worst thing you've ever seen in your life.

"Reed!" You called out to him, seeing how he seemed to crumble inside just by looking at you. "Everything will be fine!"

"You're going to die," he murmured, but he said it loud enough for you to hear, making you laugh for a moment at the implausibility of the situation.

"Don't look at it that way, okay? I'm just going to materialize in another universe," you declared, surprising him, by the positive vision you had. "You'll be fine, Reed, and so will I, don't worry".

The man felt how rivers of tears came out of his eyes and rolled down his bushy cheeks, feeling angry about what was happening and not being able to control it.

"I'm so sorry," he whispered, running his hands over his face.

He didn't want to see your hopeful eyes, bright and full of sympathy and affection towards him, he knew he didn't deserve it after having made you suffer for so many years; he was aware of your feelings, that he would not reciprocate them was another matter, but he hated himself for not having been able to make you happy or for having told you that he did not reciprocate you so that you would have moved on, but he preferred to keep you with him than to lose you forever.

The thought of him made her turn so she could head toward the lab, but it was your voice that stopped her.

"Reed," you called him for the last time, seeing how he turned to look at you, "don't be sad, everything will be fine, give Susan my regards."

That was her farewell, and he was not able to tell you anything for fear of breaking.

While Reed ran towards the laboratory, helping his companions to break the small window where America was, a loud explosion was heard coming from the room where you were, being able to distinguish your body among all the smoke that ascended little by little towards the ceiling to then fall with great force towards the ground several times, surprising the heroes who watched the scene in panic and terror.

Although everyone had lost a friend and was shocked, they never knew that you passed away with a smile thinking that you were happy with the man you loved in another universe.

I would have really loved if they didn’t reveal the Illuminati before the movie came out

[you-see-something-strange-here]

…..so like this is weird right? It’s not just me? If anything, this proves that the Illuminati was added in last second to the reshoots when fans started theorizing about who was gonna be in the movie and marvel realized they had to backtrack and throw a few cameos in to make people happy.

"Quite funny you're taking physics, I never thought you wanted to be like your dad," Peter frowned, taking a large bite from his burrito.

"Well, I'm-"

"She's into Dr. Richards" Mary Jane smirked wickedly and Y/N punched her friend's arm.

"Dude! Wait a minute, don't you do babysitting for his wife!?" Peter gasped, opening his mouth in shock.

"NO! No! No, they are divorced! And he's not the reason I'm taking physics, MJ. I'm trying to get an internship at the Baxter Institute, and if Dr. Richards likes my grades... then I guess my spot there is guaranteed." Y/N shrugged, taking a potato chip to her mouth.

Mary Jane scoffed, "C'mon Y/N/N, you know that's bullshit. Gwen offered you a place at OSCORP and you never said anything. Just say you're dying to get into Mr. Fantastic's pants."

"I'm starting to feel a little uncomfor-"

"MJ, shut up! I think Dr. Richards is a brilliant mind and I have many things to learn from him. Yes, I do think he's hot. But, he is my professor and I know his family! I take care of his kids, for Christ's sake!" Y/N groaned frustrated and MJ raised her hands in surrender,

"Fine, if you say so..."

"How does he manage to be a superhero, father, scientist and a professor? Does he have no life?" Peter wondered.

"That's just what I said... he's brilliant. Truly fantastic." Y/N softly sighed and Peter rolled his eyes, making MJ chuckled.

Couple hours later, Y/N had physics. She went to the classroom before anyone else and opened her book, trying to keep ahead of the subject. Y/N was a genius, obviously, she's Dr. Banner's kid. She didn't needed an internship at OSCORP or the Baxter Building because she already had a place at the Stark Industries, given by her godfather and CEO himself, Tony. But she wanted to be noticed by her professor, she was seeking for validation. Always being ahead of everyone in class, always showing up first, always answering the questions on the board, always having the highest grades... None of those things seemed to be enough for Reed to notice her, really see her in the way she wanted to. And then, she had the most brilliant idea a brilliant mind could have; She was going to do the complete opposite of what she had been doing all this time.

Making her way out of the classroom, her plan began.

First, it started with running late to classes. It was noticeable how unusual that was for Reed, who questioned himself if there was something wrong in Miss Banner's personal life, because she was never, ever, late to anything. Then, missing assignments and giving the wrong answers... Something was really off with her.

It didn't made any sense, he knew Y/N Banner was the most dedicated and capable student in advanced physics he had, specially being the daughter of a specialist in nuclear physics.

Y/N on the other hand, was completely fine with failing. She only had to play pretend in the classroom and fake a little distraction. It wasn't that hard, it seems to be that she could be easily distracted by Dr. Richards features. His voice could take her attention away from anything, and that made her really glad they never had classes in a real lab.

When the class was finally over, Y/N was packing up her things to go to the Baxter Building. That night, Sue had to attend to a meeting and she called Y/N to babysit Valeria and Franklin.

On her way out of the college building, she dismissed Peter and MJ's ride, giving the fact they were going to Queens and Y/N was going to Manhattan.

"Y/N!" The girl turned her head backwards once she heard someone calling for her.

Her heart skipped a beat once she saw Reed's wrinkled hazel eyes staring at her, with a soft and gentle smile in his pink lips. She could hold her smile.

"Dr. Richards" She bowed her head greeting him, even though they shared a classroom in the last 20 minutes.

"Sue told me you're going to babysit the kids tonight. I'm going to the Baxter right now, and, I thought I could give you a ride...? Unless you're going home first, of course."

Y/N was planning going home first to take a shower, but being in the same car as Reed in a 30 minutes ride seemed tempting.

"Yeah, sure." Y/N just nodded, avoiding small talk.

It was quite shameful how easily Reed could make her lose her words. Y/N was always the most bright one in everything she did, but she absolutely loses the tough image around him. She's the Hulk's daughter! Her dad would obviously be so disappointed seeing her becoming a less smart version of herself because of a guy. But that guy... that guy was just... She couldn't put in words how much admiration she had for Dr. Reed Richards.

They were already 10 minutes in the road and no words were said. Y/N was frustrated. He was ignoring her, just like he did in the classroom. This time, no "Well done, Miss Banner" was heard. Fortunately, the opening title of "Game Of Thrones" was echoing in the car, coming from her bag. She cringed, taking her phone out and answering the call. Reed chuckled once he recognized the song.

"Yes, daddy?" Y/N sighed.

"Y/N, I'm trying to get things done with ISLA's configuration but it's requiring a password...? Have you done any work lately?" Bruce asked in a accusation tone.

Y/N chuckled, "Don't worry, ISLA is ready. I've done the last settings before I went to college and it's working. We can start the tests once I'm home."

"Where are you? I thought your classes ended at 6"

"I'll be babysitting for Mrs. Richards tonight. You don't need to wait for me. Also, I left pasta in the freezer. You can use the microwave this time, I fixed this morning too." Y/N smiled to herself.

"Okay then... Have a good evening sweetie."

"Bye daddy." Y/N hang up, and looked over Reed, who had a smirk in his lips and his eyes on the road, "I'm so sorry about the loud ringtone, I completely forgot about it."

"Don't worry, Y/N. I like Game Of Thrones too" Reed reassured her, and she felt less embarrassed.

"Like a good little nerd" Y/N joked and he chuckled.

"What's that Isla thing that you were talking about, if you don't mind me asking?" Reed asked, his soft voice sounding like a song.

"Oh, it's ISLA, she's an AI. I wanted to make one since I was kid and daddy introduced me to uncle Tony's JARVIS. So, I finally made my own. It's programmed to take care of my dad when I'm out and help him relax. He needs do be distracted so he doesn't get angry. I bought him an Xbox but he didn't enjoyed that much. Almost turned green while playing Dark Souls III" Y/N chuckled and Reed laughed.

"You know, it's quite impressive. I was 9 when I made my first AI, but hey, 22 is a good start too" Reed teased, making the girl roll her eyes.

A couple more minutes in silent, but this time the air was more lighter between them. That was until Reed had something to add:

"It's Miss Storm" Reed said with a smile.

"What?" Y/N frowned, her eyebrows knitted together.

"You said Mrs. Richards. Sue and I are divorced, so..."

"Oh, yes, of course. My bad, Dr. Richards"

"Reed. Just Reed when it's us." Y/N tried her best not to choke with his words. She couldn't believe that was actually happening.

"Right, just Reed. Guess that makes me just Y/N." Y/N said and he nodded smiling.

Once they were at the Baxter Building, Reed went to his floor and Y/N went to Sue's. She explained Reed couldn't watch the kids because he had some research to do and they would probably get in their father's way, but he promised to stop by and put the kids to sleep. Y/N couldn't help the excitement of having Reed's company again.

Sue was out, Franklin was watching TV and Y/N was helping Valeria with her homework. Of course Valeria didn't actually needed any help, she has a really high IQ for someone at her age, but the young girl enjoyed her sitter's company.

Even though the kids looked just like Sue, Valeria is like her father. She had Reed's intelligence, the way he speaks and explain things, she also had his smile. Y/N never wanted to be a stepmother so bad in her intire life.

Jokes apart, she really enjoys her time with the kids. Franklin is a sweetheart, the sweetest and funniest kid Y/N had ever met. And she and Valeria had so much in common that things were just easy. They would do homework, play something in the PS5, grab some snacks, watch a movie together, and then the kids were off to bed and Y/N could leave. Piece of cake.

It was Valeria's time of picking a movie, and her choice was Wall-E. Someone could say it was very predictable, but Y/N stayed quiet and enjoyed the movie with the kids. That was until they were all asleep.

Reed's first thought once he saw the scene was: This is really cute. Something about it just felt right. His second thought was: I need to get them out of the couch. So, using his powers, he stretched his arm and made his hand big enough to grab Valeria's whole body. The girl embraced her dad's body, resting her head in his shoulder. He did the same to Franklin, that groaned in his sleep. Reed took them both to their beds, and then, he came back for Y/N. She was peacefully sleeping, so pretty but so... young. He knew he had some kind of attraction for the girl, but refused to feed that sort of feeling.

"Y/N" He whispered softly next to her, trying not to startle her.

That's when she's whimpered. She whimpered, and for seconds, Reed forgot what he was doing, where he was, who he was. For seconds, he forgot he was the smartest man alive. The only thing Reed knew, is that he needed to hear that sound again.

"Y/N, wake up" Reed tried again, and she finally opened her eyes.

It took Y/N a couple seconds to remember that she was at the Baxter Building, taking care of the Richards' kids.

"Oh God, Dr. Richards! I'm so sorry I fell asleep, we were watching the movie and I-"

"Y/N, it's okay. The kids are in bed, you are good to go now if you want to" Reed smiled and Y/N nodded, standing up.

Y/N took her hand to her forehead, feeling a little dizzy. Probably because she got up quickly, and almost fell to the ground if it wasn't for Reed, holding her in his arms. Y/N opened her eyes widely in shock, noticing how close their bodies were. She could feel his breath next to her, making her whole body shiver.

"Are you okay?" He asked in a whisper. She nodded.

Reed sat her in the couch again and looked at the clock on the wall. It wasn't really late, but he knew Sue wouldn't be home tonight.

"Have you eaten something?" Reed asked, looking at the chip bags and soda cans spred around the living room.

"I got the kids some snacks but I didn't felt like eating" Y/N mumbled while shrugging.

"Well, lucky for you I'm was about eat something for dinner." Reed smiled and Y/N got up again.

"Dr. Richards, I'm sorry but I have to refu-"

"It's Reed, Y/N. And I don't take "no" for an answer. Come with me to the penthouse. I have cameras and a motion sensor in the kids' rooms so the AI will let me know if they wake up." He took her hand and didn't gave her any time to process what he just said.

Reed took Y/N to his penthouse. It was fancy, sure, but most of the things were like Sue's, which was clear that she's the one who did the whole decorating thing. Great taste, but everything was so white, and honestly, Y/N couldn't picture Reed Richards living in a place like that.

"I know frozen pizza is not ideal but I promise to make it right with the wine. You're old enough to drink, right?" Reed joked and Y/N rolled her eyes chuckling.

"You have a nice home," Y/N watched the tall man in front of her while he poured her some wine.

"Not thanks to me. Susan did all the decoration, I spend most of my time in the lab. To be honest I'm only here because I'm with you. I normally sleep in the lab too." He said while taking a box of frozen pizza out of the freezer.

"I can only imagine" Y/N whispered under her breath, taking a sip from her drink.

Of course they didn't had much things to talk about, so they started a conversation about the kids. Y/N loved how passionate Reed was while talking about his children and how proud he was of them. He talked about Valeria and how smart she is for such a young girl, and the things they build together as a father-daughter project. Y/N could easily relate to that, she always had a good relationship with her father, and they used to build stuff together when she was a child. Science projects were always fun family time.

Talking about Franklin, Reed said how he and the boy got a little distant after the divorce. Even if it was a friendly divorce, Franklin was taking his mother's side thinking that Reed didn't had time for his family. Y/N couldn't had anything to say about it, and the best she could do was listen.

Reed felt so good after taking those things out of his chest. He really needed to talk to someone, and he couldn't put Ben and Johnny to choose sides. For the first time since the divorce, he had someone to talk to and trust his personal life with. Probably was the wine talking for him, but that was sweet little Y/N. He knew he could trust Y/N, his student and the girl that sometimes takes care of his children because he's too busy to do it.

After moments in pure quiet, they were just staring at each other, sipping from their glasses and eating their slices of pizza. Y/N was relaxed, away from the college environment, away from her responsibilities at home, away from being a nanny... Reed could say the very same, since he did everything it had to be done, including releasing the exam grades.

"You're failing my classes," Reed said, licking the wine from his lips with the tip of his tongue.

"I've been distracted the last few weeks, i'll do better" Y/N tried to end the conversation, afraid she would start getting nervous.

"You're failing my classes on purpose, Y/N. It took me a while to notice, but then after our conversation in the car, it hit me that you've been doing this on purpose. You knew the answers on the board, and you knew the answers on the exams. You started showing up late at classes and I knew from the start you were trying to get my attention, but I still don't get it why you were playing dumb all this time. You were always the first on everything, and suddenly... this? Why?" Reed cocked an eyebrow and Y/N felt a lump slowly forming in her throat. She lost all her words.

"I- I wasn't- It wasn't-" She tried and tried to form a sentence but, like he said, she was playing dumb. But this time she wasn't playing.

"Awn, cute. We both know you were." He said coldly and quite passive agressive, "Why did you do it, Y/N?"

"I- I don't know... I'm always very smart" She said, avoiding Reed's judging gaze.

"Are you now? Because all I can see is a dumb little girl who can't even properly form a sentence." Reed got up, getting closer and closer to her.

Y/N looked at him with silly little pityful eyes, while inside, her heart was pounding like a drum. She wanted this so bad, and he was really close of giving it to her. Making her his own.

"Are you so empty headed that you need me to think for you?" He asked her, his hoarse voice sounding so low that made her whole body shake. Y/N quickly nodded to his question, attacking his lips without thinking twice.

Reed kept whispering phrases that made him sound so condescending and made her look so... stupid. Y/N was going crazy. She didn't knew be called a "dumb whore" would have that kind of effect on her body, and she secretly liked. To Reed that wasn't a secret at all, to see her being a whimpering mess under him, it was very clear that he was doing everything right. He was going to have her.

Reed had his arms pinning her body onto his figure, and her legs were on his waist. He took her to his bedroom, but she didn't payed any attention to the place.

One second she was in his lap, and in the other she was on her knees. She watched the way Reed's thick digits danced through his belt, undoing it. She was looking up to him, with dumb eyes and a silly smile. Her fingers went to the buttons of his trousers, opening one by one slowly and never leaving his eyes. Reed tucks his thumb into the waistline, tugging down and letting his dick slap against his abdomen.

He couldn't hold a smirk, watching Y/N gasp to his size. He was big and thick, and the girl wondered how many cocks like that she had seen in whole life other than in porn videos; the answer was none.

"Is it too big for your dumb mouth? I bet a smart girl could take it" He teased.

Swallowing, she leaned forward, lolling her tongue out to simply swipe the tip against it. Y/N takes the head of his cock in her mouth, feeling a little proud once she hears Reed's soft groans. He was clenching his fists, doing his best to let her take the lead, otherwise it could be too rough for her.

She took his hands to her hair, letting him guide her and take control over her movements. She wanted to be taught by him.

Reed starts thrusting his hips forward but he only gets a few inches in before she started sputtering.

"No, no. You want to be a big girl, don't you? You gonna take my cock like a big girl and then you're gonna thank me for what I'm giving you. Did I made myself clear?" Reed hissed and she hummed, sending vibrations through his length.

Y/N tried to mumble something around him, but Reed just takes it as an opportunity to shove himself down deeper in her throat. Y/N gagged, petting his thighs so he could let her breath. He took his dick out of her mouth, smiling to the drooling mess she became. She tried to say something, but couldn't make any sense of her words.

"What's that, sweetheart? What's my little dumb baby trying to tell me?" He teased, with his thumb inside her mouth and caressing her lips.

"It won'- fit me... it's- too big-" She whined.

"Awn sweetheart, don't worry. I got you, okay?" Reed took her hand, helping her to stay on her feet.

He helped her to take her clothes, revealing the cute black laced lingerie she was wearing. He wondered how many times she went to class dressing like this underneath her outfits.

Y/N made her way to the bed and Reed was on top of her. He left kissed on her neck, traveling through her whole body as he played with her had nipples, pinching and pulling between his digits, making her squirm underneath his body. He placed himself between her legs, his large hand playing with her clothed swollen clit. Y/N whined and he slightly slapped her cunt, making her gasp.

"Please, sir- I need so bad" She whined loudly, earning another slap from him.

"You gonna take what I give you. And then...?"

"I'm gonna thank you"

"Good girl" Reed said before ripping her underwear in half.

Reed plays with his thumb between her wet shimmering center, using his thumb to stimulate her little bud.

"Look at you, fucking soaked down here." He bites her thighs, his beard making friction with her soft skin.

Reed sticks his face right into her wet cunt, laughing while she squirms at the feeling of his beard and nose rubbing up against her most sensitive parts. Her teeth embed themselves in she plush bottom lip as his tongue immediately probing her shimmering folds.

"Fuc- Ah!" She moaned, arching her body as her hands found it's way to Reed's hair.

His fat thumbs come to spread her open, immediately catching how her hole clenches and glistens. He pops the tip of his middle finger inside, just to see the way she would spread around him. It earns a sweet moan out of her, but he quickly pulls back, gleaming at the way her hole puckers back up.

"Want something in there, don’t ya? Go ahead and tell me what you want."

"I- I wan..."

Reed pushed in two more fingers without warning, making her jump.

"Be a smart big girl, Y/N. C'mon, say it"

"I want your cock inside me, sir"

Reed chuckled at how hard it was for her to form a proper phrase.

"I got you, baby" Reed said, violently turning her body around on the bed.

Y/N shivered as she felt his shadow tower over her bare back. The heat radiating from his body does nothing but remind her of how empty she is, longing for his touch.

Reed aligned himself between her folds, brushing his pink tip in her warm center. Y/N whined, slightly moving her hips to create a friction between her pussy and the head of his cock. Finally, he’s pushing his huge length inside of her and it takes every bit of self restraint to not scream at the size of him.

Stars line her vision, black spots dotting the outskirts. He’s not just big, he’s massive— All she could do was whimper and moan as he was pratically ripping her in half.

"Fuck, sweetheart. So fucking tight— don’t tell me you’re a virgin." He said as he puts his weight on his elbows.

She couldn't tell him anything, her tongue lolling out in pain and bliss as he makes his first solid thrust, tip smushing right against her cervix.

Y/N's mouth opened widely as she moaned loudly. Reed used his hand to fist her hair and pulled her body to his, her back against his bare chest as he fucked her.

"Fuc- 'm so fuckin' full" Y/N whimpered, her eyes shut closed as she felt his thick cock in her tummy.

"It's alright baby, you don't need to think. You can be my dumb little girl. I'm gonna take good care you, alright? Now, what do good girls say?" Reed asked, his mouth too close to her ear, biting her earlobe.

"Thank you, sir" Y/N moaned as Reed's large hand made way to her neck, gripping at her throat as he fucked her senseless.

His other arm was over her waist, holding her body, otherwise she would fall onto the mattress. Y/N couldn't help to think— what the fuck happened to you? The back of her brain is begging for an ounce of self control, but this feels too good, he feels too good. The authority in him is everything she ever wanted, and he finally, finally gave her.

Salty tears dripped down her cheeks, but Reed licks them up, moaning at the taste.

"I'm gonna fill you up, uh? Teach you a fucking lesson, and you’re gonna take it, yeah?" He hissed in her ear and her little empty head quickly nods to what he was saying.

"I'm gonna cum too!" Y/N made haste to say, her walls clenching around him and squeezing his huge cock.

"Cum, sweetheart. I want to feel you pretty cunt milking me" Reed whispered dirty sentences in her ear as she reached her climax. Whimpering, sobbing and moaning, trying to get more of what it was given to her.

"Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" Y/N screamed between moans, her tiny body shaking as her cunt milked his cum and Reed released himself inside of her, filling her up like he said he would.

Their bodies fell onto the mattress. Reed kissed her neck as she tried to catch his breath. Y/N smiled, looking straight into his eyes and he did the same. There was no shame in what they've done, and both of them were pently satisfied.

"Hey, uhm... Were you- were you using your powers?" Y/N questioned and Reed frowned.

"What do you mean?"

"You know, down there?" Y/N insinuated, trying not to sound too vulgar.

"Ooh, right" Reed chuckled loudly, "I wasn't but, don't go giving me any ideas."

*Multiverse of Madness SPOILERS*

Time for me to talk about the Illuminati death scenes, cause this was some bullcrap.

First, Black Bolt: I genuinely feel sorry for fans of the character and the Inhumans. Honestly, I haven't seen the Inhumans show, so I don't know if it's bad or good (even though I've heard from some people who said it was a bad show). I did hear that Anson Mount played the character in the show, and he was fine in MoM. He even got the comic accurate costume, tuning fork and all. Although, I feel bad for the actor since he got to reprise his role only to get killed off in a brutal way for a PG-13 movie. I understand taking Black Bolt out first since he's a major threat to Wanda, but the reason she was able to do that was because Reed had to tell her what his power is, which is so stupid. You don't tell your enemy what they're capable of! Also, I thought he'd be the one that should've held his own against Wanda (the other two should've been Professor X and Captain Marvel) based on his abilities. Dude could level an entire town with a mere word!

Mr. Fantastic: I'm so sorry Fantastic Four fans. Now, because he was in the movie for a couple of minutes, I can't judge how well John Krasinski acted as Reed Richards, but he was fine in the movie. Speaking of Krasinski, this was a fancast made by so many fans for years. Well, we got the fancast we wanted....only for him to turn into string cheese and get his head popped off by Wanda. The effects for his stretching was okay, and the costume was okay, but god damn was Reed done dirty here. His death was the slowest out of the Illuminati, which I don't understand why the hell Peggy and Maria just stood there and not attack Wanda to save Reed! Also, Reed's supposed to be one of the smartest people in Marvel, but he tells Wanda Black Bolt's power, and stretches his arm to grab her when he saw what he did to his teammate. Yeah, Reed in the comics messes up, but come on! Now, if the Fantastic Four movie's still happening and Krasinski isn't casted, that's gonna be a huge insult to fans who wanted to see him play that role.

Captain Carter: Anyone noticed that Wanda easily get rid of the two male members, but struggles to fight against the two female members? I don't know how I feel about that. Anyway, I still don't get why Peggy is a member of the Illuminati, but okay. And she has a jetpack for some reason. Did it suck that she died? Yeah, it was a bummer. But, I'm surprised that Wanda had a longer fight with her than Black Bolt and Mr. Fantastic, and that she struggled against Peggy and Maria more than the others. Also, "I can do this all day"....seriously?! She had to have Steve's catchphrase?!

Captain Marvel: So, she's one of the three that should've held her own and she did. But, her death was a giant statue falling on top of her? I wanted to call bullcrap on that cause Carol has flown through space ships, and this Maria variant dies from a statue. Maybe it was because Wanda absorbed her powers, but it was hard to tell. If she did do that however, why the hell doesn't she do that to everyone else?! Also, Maria's attitude rubbed me the wrong way, but I think the writers made her and the others arrogant so that they'd easily get killed by Wanda. It's still annoying though.

Now, there's still Charles Xavier but that's gonna be a long post for later. And, I know some people are gonna say "they're variants, it's fine". No. No, it's not fine. This was the first introduction to Mr. Fantastic, and Black Bolt in an MCU movie. Them getting brutally murdered shouldn't be part of that. It's insulting to the Fantastic Four fans and the Inhumans fans. This is also Captain Carter's live action debut, and this would piss off some of the Peggy stans too. Too bad Wanda is "dead", otherwise, I'd hope Sue Storm, Medusa, or Franklin Richards would've hunted her down and kicked her butt for killing their loved ones. I pick them because of how close they are to them. Anyone else who's capable of beating up the witch is fine by me if they join in.

DS:MOM Thoughts [heavy spoilers beware]

I’m literally still processing the movie but here are just some jumbled thoughts of mine. (mostly of palmerstrange)

1. Defender Strange... you will be missed.

2. When I saw Stephen watching Christine get married in the trailer I thought yes, this is absolutely saddening and nothing could be worse than that (in terms of palmerstrange). Little did I know that that was only a fraction of how much harder Stephen took it in the movie. I mean just seeing him there and talking to Christine and wishing that things had went differently literally BROKE ME. Right person wrong time tbh.

3. America Chavez is amazing. The way people are hating both her and the actress is horrible and shouldn’t be condoned. She’s a great character and I can’t wait to see more of her in future movies/shows. Love how she and Strange really bonded, it was heartwarming. Makes me even sadder about him and Peter.

4. WONGGGGGGGGG THE OGGGGGGGGGG ; I had worries that they’d kill him off but he’s alright and being iconic as per usual.

5. Wanda. Dear Wanda. She was an absolute menace in the movie lol and I mean it literally. We knew she was as powerful as Sorcerer Supreme and just in general but damnnnnnnnnnn. I was legitimately terrified of her at certain points. I get why she became like that, I mean everyone should know. I feel for her I really do, but damn. Also... I’m pretty sure she’s not dead :)

6. Not Stephen’s significant memory being the one with him and Christine having dinner and Christine giving him THE watch. *crying in palmerstrange feels*

7. THE ILLUMANTI!!!!!!!! I was expecting the others (especially Professor X since we heard him in the trailer and Captain Carter as well as Monica Rambeau being Captain Marvel) but what really made me internally scream and pump my fists in the air was John Krasinski as Reed Richards. He was the perfect fan casting as him and I’m literally over the moon seeing him in the suit/character. I’m expecting him to come back in the new F4 movie and when he does I will literally lose it. Actually I’d lose it even more if they cast Emily Blunt as Sue Richards. Besides that, it was quite gruesome and sad that the heroes of that world were killed off so easily and brutally like holy crap. RIP

8. The music fight between the two Strange’s was just absolute *chef’s kiss.* 

9. “I love you. I love you in every universe. It’s not that I don’t want to care for someone, or have someone care for me, it’s just -- I get scared.” *cue the sobbing* I lost it when Stephen said this, absolutely lost it. I will never EVER climb out of the Palmerstrange hole I’ve dug for myself after this. I just can’t. Then the way 838-Christine caressed his face like Christine did in the sacred timeline in the first movie..... that was it for me. Rachel and Benedict. You guys destroyed me, but I’m entirely grateful for it. The fact that in every universe Palmerstrange were a thing but could never get the endgame they deserved hurts me sm that just thinking about them makes me want to cry forever. WHAT DID THEY DO TO BE TREATED LIKE THIS????????!!!!! On sidenote: I want someone to love me in every universe too.... 

10. The watch. THE WATCH. Seeing the watch Christine gave Stephen now will just be giving me trauma and heartbreak. I do like the fact that at the end they had Stephen fix the watch and put it away as a sign of him moving on. I mean there was always going to be a point where he moved on. I’m happy for him. But ofc, my sad Palmerstrange heart always had hoped for a happy ending for them. It is what it is now. 

11. They introduced Clea [pretty sure that’s her in the first end credits although the casting is not my favorite] so she’ll be a very important character in the next film (or whatever else she’ll be in) and will most likely be Stephen’s love interest [since yes they are married in the comics.... Clea Strange....], I don’t hate her. I’m looking forward to what her character will bring, but it doesn’t mean I’ve recovered from Palmerstrange and that Rachel/Christine should not be in future films. If they want to erase her when Clea comes in, sorry that’s not it. I won’t have it. If they can’t be a thing anymore fine, but at least let her still be in Stephen’s life as a close friend, a confidante even. It’s the least that could be done at this point. 

12. No cap but all the multiverse stuff made my head spin lol, but that sequence where Stephen and America were going through all the universes’ was really cool though, props to Marvel for that. 

13. Marvel really made me wait like 20 minutes to see the second end-credits scene and then proceeded to troll everyone by showing us that pizza-donut thing seller guy finally stop punching himself in the face. Thanks for that Marvel. 

Overall really great movie, I had a great time being in the theaters and watching it (seeing as how I haven’t been to the theaters ever since COVID started), absolute stellar performances from the whole cast, love them all!!! I have more rambles/thoughts about the movie but I think I’ll stop here and spare anyone who reads this from anymore lol. 

[siryouarebeingmocked]

Dr. Strange 2: Witness the power of this fully armed and operational Disney VFX budget!

I liked the movie. The multiverse/magic stuff looks great, and if you watch Strange 1, then Far From Home, then this, you can see a pretty clear progression.

As someone whose knowledge of Sam Raimi is literally just "Saw all 3 Spider-Man movies and Darkman," I appreciate his directorial flourishes. You can tell he's flexing here, especially with the bigger budget.

I like Wanda and Strange’s arcs.

I do have some issues with America, though.

SPOILERS

There's an LP channel called Spoiler Warning. They once MST3K'd Mass Effect 3, and mocked the halibut out of the blatant attempt at pathos in the first level. "But Shamus," Josh would snark, "a kid died!"

In case you aren't familiar with the game, Shepard tries to save a random little kid hiding in a vent. The kid refuses to come out. Then later, as Shep leaves, they look down and see the kid, hopping on the last shuttle out of Vancouver.

The big bad space squid enemies laser it, and then Shepard has bad dreams for the rest of the game. Because a generic kid died.

And that's what America is. She's A Kid. Extruded teen product. Servicable. She the meat and potatoes of characters.

The movie examines Strange's pride. In the first movie, he was an egotist who thought it was All About Him. In this movie, he doesn't, but he still thinks it's on him to fix the problems-

Sorry, I just had to take a moment to make sure they didn't mix up a few script pages from Iron Man 2.

Kid sidekicks are supposed to bring out new character traits in the main protagonist. Robin contrasts Batman's dark grittiness (Well, except for Damien and Dick, where Damien was the dark one and Dick was the lighter one.). Jimmy Olsen contrasts Superman by just being A Guy who keeps getting caught up in super-shenanigans.

America can't use her powers on command-

Sorry, I just had to take a moment to make sure they didn't mix up a few script pages from Into the Spider-Verse.

And the climax of her arc is to learn how awesome and powerful she actually is-

Sorry, I just had to take a moment to make sure they didn't mix up a few script pages from Captain Marvel.

Jokes aside, "believe in the me who believes in you!" is a perfectly...functional plot here. It works. She works. It’s...kind of a contrast with Strange’s arc? But she's a pretty flat character. Maybe if the movie started with her trusting only in herself. I don’t mean the weaksauce stuff we got, I mean straight up paranoia. She only trusts herself, which is a dark mirror of Strange’s arc. And Wanda’s too! She’s only going with Strange because she’s out of options.

Now, the cynical part of me says this is because of woke shenanigans. The optimist says it might be because they want to give her a full arc of her own in some other series or movie. Or because they already had two major character arcs in the film.

Incidentally, it turns out America’s power has been taking her to the ‘correct’ universes all along. Which includes universes where good things happen to her. Which explains why she’s so relatively-well-adjusted.

Incidentally, America is gay in the comics. I hoped they wouldn't try to include a subplot about a 15 year old's sexuality. And they didn't.

They did something...else.

So, in this film (and maybe the comics) America is apparently from an idyllic, peaceful lesbian(?) commune-

Sorry, I just had to take a moment to make sure they didn't mix up a few script pages from Wonder Woman.

-and accidentally knocked her moms into some unknown other dimension when her powers kicked in-

Sorry, I just had to take a moment to make sure they didn't mix up a few script pages from Inhumans.

Oh, right, Inhumans. Black Bolt is on the Illuminati. I was hoping for the Tom Cruise as Superior Iron Man. John Krasinski as Reed Richards was

They also finally gave Professor X the iconic yellow wheelchair. Maria Rambeau is Captain Marvel, like her daughter was in the comics for a while.

(Aside: I loved Monica in Nextwave as Kermit to the team's Muppets, and know nothing else about her regular appearances.)

And they bought back Anson Mount as Black Bolt, which was

Was it fanservice? Yes. Was it fun? Yes. Was Reed Richard useless? Yes.

Oh, and it bugged me how many shots seemed framed specifically to show off America’s Pride pin. Which I could ignore if it wasn’t that new racialized version I dislike*. Maybe it’s in honor of her moms, idk. She is also, quite possibly, the most special person in the multiverse, because there is apparently only one of her, likely for plot reasons.

These minor things aside, yeah, worth a few bucks.

* Ironic how a flag about bringing people together is now implying some LGBT people are more important than others.

[the-desolated-quill]

Spoilers for Doctor Yellowface and the Multiverse of Bullshit, if anyone actually gives a shit.

It’s official. John Krasinski is Reed Richards. Give me fucking strength.

Anyway, mediocre white casting aside, the film is basically using the Illuminati, which doesn’t really work in the context of this film. Reed Richards joining a secret society of superheroes to control the world’s governments is meant to be a shock in the comics because it shows just how far he’s prepared to go to protect his family. (The Illuminati was founded by Iron Man in the comics, in case you were unclear where the group stands politically. Also, fun fact, Black Panther was offered a spot and he turned it down because it’s undemocratic). In this movie however, this is the first time we’re meeting Reed and we haven’t seen the rest of the Four or their relationships. So it means nothing. Professor X and Black Bolt are there, like in the comics, as well as, weirdly, Peggy Carter and Maria Rambeau even though neither of them would really gel with the purpose of the group. It’s just so random, like the filmmakers just picked random names out of a hat.

Anyway, the MCU has ruined yet another beloved character of mine. Thanks to Doctor Yellowface, our first introduction to Mister Fantastic is as a closet fascist and he’s being played by a CIA simp. Thanks guys. Thanks very much. 😡

[nouearth]

Hi girly I'm that one nasty super horny anon from the Johnny x Reader x Reed request and wanted to ask for a change in Reed's personality during the fic, I happened to notice that I like Krasinski's vibe when he's more... nerdy/geeky? Like I don't get it fully yet but it adds something to the horniness. Hope it's not too late for the personality change, have a good night and hope daddy Krasinski visits you in your dreams to fill that hole!

💌 : never too late! i'll keep that in mind for the future then, thank you anon! :D

[peterbarnes]

now here are my SPOILER thoughts on Multiverse of Madness

This isn’t a particular order so it’s kind of a mess.

I loved the motif with the watch. The idea that as the watch, this broken thing, can eventually become fixed, just like the characters is beautiful.

The pacing was weird as hell. So for all the action scenes - Shuma Gorath, Kamar-Taj- I was super invested. I thought they were very well put together, especially the former. Wong fighting Shuma Gorath is one of the best choreographed fight sequences. The stunts?? Using magic to conjure a sword?? But then the slower scenes were so slow compared to the others, that when they tried to develop the characters in those moments, I wasn’t super invested. For instance, that super long sequence of Strange and America walking to the sanctum in the new universe and going down “memory lane.” It felt way too long, and almost useless. It didn’t make me feel any differently about America or Strange. Even thought it was the only backstory for America we got and it was supposed to make me feel for her.

I think my problem with America in general is that her demeanor is so timid. In the comics, she’s not afraid to take up space. She’s blunt and in your face but still has this intense compassion for people. This version of America felt like the polar opposite of the one from the comics. And I get that they were trying to develop her confidence and such throughout the movie. But even in her big moment where she finds Wanda at the end, it didn’t feel like a big moment of growth for her. Her punching Wanda doesn’t signify toughness. It’s in your presence, the way you carry yourself. And that was lacking. Plus, America isn’t a magic wielder?? Why did they end her story at Kamar Taj with her learning magic. Her powers are rooted in her use of brute force. So why are they setting up her powers to be more like Strange’s? Why is her story becoming completely rooted in him when she’s supposed to be known for her independence?

Now let’s talk cameos. I think the idea of introducing the Illuminati was fucking genius and perfect for this movie. I mean John fucking Krasinski as Reed Richards??? AMAZING. But if the Illuminati is supposed to be this powerhouse lineup of heroes, why were they all killed off so quickly? I know Wanda is more powerful than on all them on every level, but her killing them all after them being on screen for 3 minutes renders their appearance useless. Merely for shock value and fan pleasing. They could’ve had integral roles in the story. ESPECIALLY professor x. I would have loved to see him have an actual psychic battle or conversation with Wanda. I think that would be fascinating to see him try to reach out to her similarly to how he did with Jean in X3. And I loved how they started to do that when Xavier went inside her head. But they cut it so short by snapping his neck that the opportunity for one of the movies most emotional and vibrant moments was lost. And Charles’ death became lackluster, like all of the other members (except for Captain Marvel, who at least lasted a while).

The only emotional moments that I felt were truly executed well were when Billy and Tommy see the Scarlet Witch and Strange and Christine’s conversation before parting. I think having a huge final battle end with a more emotional scene as compared to the typical action packed blood fest was a smart move. It was the one time Wanda didn’t feel like a simplistic villain. And I saw that as a massive Wanda fan. The whole point is her character is supposed to be extremely complex, always having contradicting emotions and motivations. And that was so well done in Wandavision. She wanted her life back, but she was losing control and hurting people, but she didn’t want to let go. That turmoil is quintessential Wanda. And the only time that was even slightly explored was at the end when Billy and Tommy see her and she started to realize the end doesn’t justify the means. Wanda chronically doubts herself yet she was so sure of herself the entire film. And I think that missed the mark for me.

I was so hyped for this movie. I’d been looking forward to it since it was announced in 2019. And I am so massively disappointed by the direction they took the story in. The sky was the limit for all the things they could have done. This could’ve been the best marvel movie to date. And yet it was messy and underwhelming. As a life long MCU fan, it makes me nervous of the universe’s future. If a massive event such as this movie doesn’t deliver, will future ones? Or will they all feel like they’re just leading up to the next project rather than being cohesive and nuanced stories?

DOCTOR STRANGE MoM SPOILERS

So i watched it yesterday and my expectations were low since i hated the Loki series (both are written by Mike Waldron ) but it was good, i'd say a solid 6/10

Good parts :

-The acting. They were all fantastic in the movie but special mention to Elizabeth Olsen who ate this performance. She was AMAZING you could see the pain Wanda was going through in her eyes it was beautiful (and heartbreaking)

-WE SAW MORE OF WONG. That was a nice surprise, he is a great character although i felt like he was underused? Like idk if i'm clear but we could have seen a lot more of his powers, i'm still glad he had a important part

- The illuminati. Now there is a lot more of things that i don't like about this storyline but i still liked some things. Namely the characters. John Krasinski as Reed Richards was amazing, it's something a lot of fans have been wanting to see for a long time, Maria Rambeau being Captain Marvel was nice too, she's a great character, SIR PATRICK STEWART, I'M NOT OKAY, we have an introduction for the x-men now , it was great seeing Haley Atwell as Captain Carter and see her reprise her role of Peggy Carter. And i was really not expecting to see Black Bolt. I watched Inhumans and thought that his character had a lot of potential and i'm glad Marvel saw that too

-America Chavez. She is a great character and a lost teenage girl and it was nice to see

-The Darkhold, i love that it made us see more of Scarlet Witch and the power that it holds on the person using it (even though we saw some of that in Agents of Shield, but it was a little different)

-The Scarlet Witch taking control over Wanda and seeing her becoming a villain. I love it when characters get lost and become villains, even if it doesn't last

-The fact that no one could beat Wanda/The Scarlet Witch and she stopped herself (with America's help ofc) instead of Doctor Strange or someone else defeating her. SHE IS THE STRONGEST AVENGER AND I WILL DIE ON THAT HILL

Now for the parts that i didn't like:

- the lack of portals. Most of the fight would have been over wayyyy faster if they used portals. Like the fight scene in the begining with the monster and America, three or four portals and it's over.

-that scene on Earth 838 where Christine, America and Stephen are running away from Wanda. It's ridiculous. First of all, Wanda, why are you walking and chasing them with glass in your feet? Bestie you can fly. And the others, WHY DO YOU STOP AND WAIT FOR WANDA TO COME. Oh she's not trying to destroy the door anymore, let's wait and see what happen. NO. YOU KEEP RUNNING YOU IDJITS. You do not wait for danger to get closer.

- The illuminati plot. As much as i loved seeing all these characters, and i really did, i think they could have been introduced in an other way, idk i didn't really liked the whole thing, it bothered me, cause the characters dies so quickly (i know we'll prob see them again anyway but still ) it just felt like too much or too little. But my father loved it so idk

I probably forgot some things

That being said, it's only my opinion so props to everyone who worked on the movie, i may not adore it but others do, and a lot of efforts were put in this movie and it shows

[thedailybullshit]

Alright, I finally got to see MoM, so have my thoughts about it (they’re free):

Multiverse of Madness SPOILERS

Stephen Strange: world renowned neurosurgeon, former Sorcerer Supreme, & savior of humanity cannot tie a tie.

Idk why he’s complaining about losing Christine when Wong is right there & available.

America Chavez my beloved, welcome to the MCU. Smashing entrance on your part, please stick around for the rest of my life.

Honestly I can’t really blame Wanda, I’d probably do the same thing in her situation. I don’t condone killing America, but considering everything Wanda’s been through & done I understand where she’s coming from & her desperation.

What I wouldn’t give for a miniseries of her slow descent into corruption by the Darkhold. (not a 2nd season of WandaVision, that ended perfectly, I mean a separate miniseries)

Sooooo Wanda’s line about Stephen breaking the rules vs her breaking the rules held up for literally the entire movie.

I have to wonder why Wanda didn’t seem to care about being w/ Vision as well as her sons. Probably because Vision would put a stop to that shit as soon as she tried it. But actually probably because they just couldn’t get Paul Bettany.

The entire Illuminati scene gave me AGGRESSIVE flashbacks to the era of WV theories. From Patrick Stewart’s Professor X making an appearance to John Krasinski as Reed Richards (tHe AeRoSpAcE eNgInEeR).

Also gotta wonder why the Illuminati is so bent about the powers of a man who got bested by a child who knew math.

I’d watch a Marvel Illuminati movie.

What happens when the Illuminati finds out that the Wiccan (son of the Scarlet Witch who possesses the same power set & is destined to rewrite the rules of magic & reality itself) becomes the Sorcerer Supreme (now also possesses the same powers they’re so worried about Stephen having)?

Honestly this movie said Sapphics Win bc we got:

- America being pretty

- America existing as a lesbian (yk that pride pin will be edited out to make money overseas but it’s fiiiine)

- America having 2 moms

- Wanda being pretty

- Wanda wrecking everyone’s shit in all her monstrous glory (covered in blood, morphed into a terrifying mind monster, killing innocent people, doesn’t matter. I’m gay).

- Live action Captain Carter!!!! Peggy on that Super Soldier juice

- Maria Rambeau wrecking shit right back as Captain Marvel

- & Rachel McAdams was . . . there

Don’t think a falling statue should’ve killed Captain Mar(ia)vel but it was caused by Wanda so okay.

Take a shot every time that 1 chord plays to remind you see? This is a horror movie! We’re a horror movie! It’s supposed to be scary you guys!

& take a shot for every eye the camera decides to emphasize.

Honestly props to Elizabeth Olsen’s acting prowess because every time she lets out her witchy side is *chef’s kiss*.

No fucking way Wanda’s dead, she’s way too powerful to be killed by some falling rocks, & there’s no way Lizzie’s contract is up.

(although if she wanted to - which she probably does - she could let herself die, & given everything that’s happened to her I wouldn’t blame her)

So, I’d thought that the woman in the mid-credits scene was that 1 girl from Eternals (which I didn’t watch) but I looked her up & apparently she’s Clea, so neat.

FUCK THAT POST CREDITS SCENE I WANTED WANDA CRAWLING FROM THE RUBBLE NOT PIZZA BALL VENDOR GUY.

Overall, I really liked it, & I want more America.

Doctor Strange spoilers

Like the title says, Doctor Strange spoilers! (I will tag it the same.)

Okay? 

Okay.

The Bad:

I never want Sam Raimi directing a Marvel movie ever again. Jumpy, 90s, bloated, and a freakin’ jump scare? Really? 

It really did feel like it could’ve used a good trimmer. A lot going on that held little weight.

This felt like a vehicle for America Chavez instead of her being a character in a Doctor Strange movie. Yet there wasn’t enough about her to make me care about her. 

They really did Wanda/Scarlet Witch dirty in this movie. WandaVision was such a wonderful look into grief and what grief can do to a person. She wasn’t redeemed at the end of WV, and she shouldn’t have. She carried her guilt and shame and that’s where our sympathies came in. We didn’t excuse what she did, but on some level, we could all understand it. There is none of this greyness in Doctor Strange. She was flat out The Villain, and there was no moment that made me side with her, even for the briefest second. She murdered and threatened and tortured people at will.

There are a LOT of unanswered questions if those boys are real. The main one? Where the fuck is Vision?

The Illuminati reveal was total fan service and boy, did it feel like it. I will say, Anson Mount as Blackbolt, despite having 2 words of dialogue, pretty much stole the scene. And now that we’ve gotten a look at John Krasinski as Reed Richards? No, thank you.

Oh, and this-

(If you know, you know.)

The Good:

Ignoring what I said about John Kasinski as Reed Richards, Marvel continues to cast perfectly, and continue to give even the smallest characters their moment. Sheila Atim has about 3 minutes of screen time and has such an important part. The kids from WandaVision are back, and they are perfect. And I mentioned how much of a presence Anson Mount has as Blackbolt, and he literally says 2 words. Of course, Benedict Cumberbatch and Elizabeth Olsen are just perfection.

The mirror scene, though too short, was really good.

There were some genuinely creepy scenes. When Darkhold Strange asks our Strange if he’s ever had the dream where he’s at the top of a flight of stairs, but falls? And the fall feels like a push? “Yeah, that was me.” (Because Darkhold Strange is trying to eliminate the other Stranges so he can have Christine. Talk about twisted!) When Wanda looks RIGHT AT THE CAMERA? When she breaks out of the mirror trap? When she chases them down the tunnel, dragging her foot behind her? When the image of Wanda in the photo TURNS HER FREAKIN’ HEAD?? 

The Illuminati reveal, despite the leaks and the guesses, was still cool. I mean, anything that puts Patrick Stewart in the X-Men chair? And I forget we haven’t actually seen Haley Atwell as Captain Carter (it was the What If? cartoon that showed us), so it was cool to see her with the shield.

It was a good movie, but not a great one. Perhaps one of the weakest in the MCU thus far, saved by the fact we knew the character and that Benedict really owns that role. I’m not disappointed I saw it; I’m only disappointed it missed so many opportunities.

Now that I've FINALLY watched DSMOM, I wanted to share my thoughts.

Firstly, this movie has had a lot of mixed reviews and they're all valid. It's okay to not like this movie or any movie, just don't hate on others for what they think.

So, I LOVED this movie. Not even kidding. I went in excited and left with my mouth agape. I won't lie when I say I went it with a lot of reviews in my head, some saying that it was more of Wanda's movie than Stephen's and I understand why people say that HOWEVER I also think that Stephen had a lot about him too. He had some amazing moments and bringing up Donna? Was not expecting that one!

Let's start with Stephen, actually.

I've always been a fan of Doctor Strange since I first heard about him. I went to the cinema to watch the first one with my brother and I remember loving the hell of it. I've heard a lot of people say that Stephen is now the Iron Man of the universe and I do get why people say that but I also have to disagree. Stephen is a lot like Tony in many ways but he's not rhe Iron Man of the MCU now, he's the Doctor Strange of the MCU. This movie genuinely made me love Stephen more. His variants were amazing, I loved Defender Strange (AKA Ponytail Boi) a lot more than I care to admit honestly. Sinister Strange was so creepy and cool. Supreme Strange definitely left a mark. And the whole dreamwalk part with Zombie Ponytail Boi? Exquisite. I have to say that I'm glad Stephen isn't the Sorcerer Supreme, my man Wong is just the better fit. Stephen still has some ways to go. Ps. Fucking loved the fight scene with the music notes, Danny elfman you mad man.

Now let's move to Wanda.

Truthfully, Wanda only really started to be liked by me with WandaVision so I'm glad she had that show. Obviously, Wanda in the MCU is a sore point for some which is valid and you shouldn't be wronged to want a romani Wanda. Whitewashing is a problem. Full stop. To do my little review though, I do have to discuss the performance. I did enjoy Wanda as an antagonist. It was a good decision overall and Olsen did a wonderful job with it. Again, I do understand why people are annoyed that she got so much development in the plot compared to Stephen. I felt like Stephen didn't always have the spotlight considering it's a Doctor Strange movie and his first one was like 6 years ago. It's just so interesting to see the true power of the Darkhold. I don't think it's fair to say the development that Wanda underwent in WandaVision was gone. Her story is complex and so is her goals, and they can be simplified easily. I do think Raimi should have watched more than one episode though.

America... oh America. Sweet angel. Loved her. Amazing debut, can't wait to see what she gets up to next. *YOUNG AVENGERS BABY!*

Wong = 🐐

Now I guess I need to address the cameos. I really wish we weren't informed about them. I really do. They would have been a delightful surprise. The trailers as a whole revealed WAY too much and did sometimes feel like they were making the film out to be something it wasn't. John Krasinski as Reed? AWESOME! Black Bolt's implosion was strangely dope ngl. Captain Carter was cool I guess but I kinda wish they stop using her all the damm time. Captain Marvel, love Maria. Nice to see Mordo again. Professor X too. I don't think there needed to be more cameos, just slightly better executed.

And as the great philosopher, that pig from Looney Toons, once said, "That's all folks!"
