atwow hot take:
if jake had said his "son for a son" shit out loud and spider had heard him, he would have been so beyond pissed, he would be seeing red.
spider loved his little siblings so much, neteyam included, even after they grew apart. he loved them like they were his own blood and protected them like they were too (we see a lot more of them together in the comics, where spider is the big brother without a doubt). neteyam's death most certainly rocked him hard, even if he hasn't really been able to show it (how could he? he's already going through all the shit with his dad and the RDA and their nonsense, he can't grieve around neytiri, he's just so tired after it all. he doesn't have the room or the energy to grieve yet)
so if jake had the audacity to say that to/around spider not even a few hours after he watched his little brother get shot after coming to save him, after he stared at the bullet hole in his back, after he watched him take his last breaths, after he watched the light leave his eyes, after he watched his little brother die for him; if he said that while his little brother's body lay in a pool of his own blood not even ten feet away, not even cold yet, blood still clinging to his chest, the scent of it still filling the air: he would have lost his shit.
because the disrespect for his brother is wild.
jake was an active player in spider's neglect and abuse for the last 16 years, he let it happen, he helped it happen. he tried to send spider with the humans, tried to take him away from his siblings, from the forests, from eywa to live with his foster family that didn't love him (not to mention Nash was an asswipe of epic proportions) and the RDA of all people. he had referred to spider as a stray animal since he was little. he was the reason spiders life was hell.
and after all that, years and years of putting him in shit positions and allowing him to suffer the fate of being forever unloved and uncared for (by an adult authority figure, cause I love the kids, but they don't make up for the gap left by a parent), this is what it took for jake to care about him? his little brother had to die in front of him first? he had to be traded out to fill the space of a corpse, to fill in the gap left by his little brother's death?
in canon, spider was in deep in shock with nothing to break him from it, he wasn't in the place to really think about any of it, and I'm sure we're gonna see this anger in the coming movies, but if jake had said it out loud, that would have been enough to snap spider right out of it, and he would have given jake a piece of his mind, I just know it.

In the last chapter there's almost no criminals left because Hawks kill them all 😅
I know this is supposed to be sarcastic but I do think that you can argue that hawks did indirectly do something like that as heroes and hero society has been reduced and filled with only the strongest people with the strongest quirks which if you look deeper into it doesn't actually give a pleasant meaning (or well to me at least).
In the end hero society has become exactly how nine and his group wanted it to be. A society that values strength and puts the strong at the top with a little focus on rescue.

I dunno if it's the askers intention but let me remind you that alters and specifically fictives of your favorite fictional characters aren't here for your entertainment.

A little unpopular opinion on something I've seen happen more commonly throughout November/December and wanted to address quickly for my own blog: Please never hesitate to reblog anything from me. You see me reblogging a sentence starter list that you like? Go for it and reblog it from me directly without any pressure on you whatsoever to send anything into me before doing so. You like a GIF-set or musing that I reblogged? Nab it from me, it'll brighten my day to see that we share an interest in something. I like to see interaction between me and anyone who follows me. I like to see that little activity notification light up.
Honestly, it simply reminds me that we're all part of a community, and more specifically, a fandom that consists of characters and nations that we all came to love and then share that amongst ourselves. And honestly, seeing a reblog happen shortly after me but it's from the source, creates (in my opinion) an odd sense of chosen disconnect between people that can feel awkward, it's as if we're walking on eggshells as to not rub each other the wrong way. But what's wrong about going 'Hey, I see what you reblogged, I like it too!', it even gives you potential common ground to start a conversation. We're a community, and I don't know about you, but I like seeing people interact with each other beyond merely threads and notes. It's the little things that matter, after all.

i have to admit that when i first watched the bcktommy date i was kinda on tommy's side and didn't really blame him for the way he reacted (tho it could have just been that it's objectively one of his more interesting moments—at least it was at the time). but now with the rest of the scenes we've gotten for them...ehhhh. i'm not a buck woobifier or anything i criticize this man really hard lol. but tommy truly does not come off looking good in the date scene, in retrospect
no this is how i 100% felt. in the moment i was like damn ok buck’s being kinda weird (mainly it’s not even the eddie encounter for me, it’s actually tommy sharing his personal experience when prompted and buck getting defensive about the answer lol, but the whole going to pick up hot chicks thing… i’d have been a little annoyed too). but in retrospect, seeing that guy-who-makes-weird-joke seems like his default state and not just a product of his hurt feelings, and the fact that he definitely had something to apologize for too, i’m like. yeah idk about all that. lmfao

how you feel about bisexual people saying they’re gay
I don't like it when people use gay as an umbrella term because it's literally not. I know one bi girl who always went "i'm sooo gayy" and I'm like "I thought u were bi??" and she was like "it's just simpler to say gay". I really don't get how though? Bi and queer are the same amount of syllables as gay. To me it's more confusing if ur talking about how gay you are and then people see you with a boyfriend/girlfriend. I guess it's not that big of a deal but it's def a pet peeve of mine and rubs me the wrong way.

Consider: Jason and Tim still hate each other but also sort of love each other. The sibling rivalry is absolutely on sight. They fight no-holds-barred. But if anyone other than Jason even slightly scratches Tim, they're dead, and vice-versa. "No one else gets to kill you but me" kinda brothers.
Okay but friend have you considered pure hated like just the most undiluted most vindictive hatred from Tim he would not be able to stand by and watch jason be murdered only bc he would feel the need to step in and help out the murderer he definitely voted for jason to die during the robin death poll
while Jason could not tell you which member of the young justice team is actually Tim despite knowing who every other member of the team is
