Good evening! I'm the elf helping your Secret Santa with their gift fic! I wanted to ask a few questions to ensure you get the fic you hope for. First off, you asked for Joel Miller (great choice). Did you have an age range in mind for him and his student? Is Sarah, Ellie, or a combination of the two in his life? Secondly, you asked for kink are there any you'd like to see or ones to steer clear of? Anything else you'd like to add? Thank you so much!

Hi!! Thank you so much. Yes Ellie and Sarah are both in his life. I like a big age gap so like maybe 20-ish and Joel 50-ish. Pregnancy kink would be nice, also some dominance in terms of Reader following orders about just regular things like what to wear, what to eat, how to sit, what to do at certain times, etc. However you implement it into the story is up to you :)

Just re-watched Umbrella Academy with a friend, and the more I think about it the worse Allison looks.

Such a nasty un-redeemable character.

It bothers me so much that they never adress the fact that she basically sold out her entire family to have what SHE wanted, which is basically all she has done her entire life.

We're are suppsed to empathize with her over the loss of a daughter she got via sexual assault by rumoring the guy she liked into loving her, a child who she kept using her power on because she "wanted to be a mom", but didn't actually want to be a parent. She also sexually assaulted Luther during her whole "I am not getting my way and I lost everything and I am the victim in all of this" season 3 arc. She is disgusting all the way around. From season 1 to season 4. Horrible character who never pays for anything she ever did and never actually shows remorse, and is coddled and forgiven over and over again by her siblings.

I guess we are to take that off-hand comment about how Ray abandoned her and Claire as her punishment...

The actress did an excellent job. I just hope she and the entire cast and creators understand Allison is infact a villain.

Aidan Gallagher is the best thing to come out of The Umbrella Accademy. I honestly believe in my heart that kid should have a massive career already lined up, yet I feel it will likely be years, if ever, that we'll see him in a big lead role again.

I've seen this post going around and the responses under it. It is my understanding that this was posted in response to seemingly racist comments towards Pedro and the way his character looks. This is not gonna be about the racist part, those folks can fuck right off, this is mostly me just ranting about shit. Feel free to ignore me!

Let me preface this by saying I am in no way an expert, not even well-studied, but I am a big fan of art, history, and the Roman Empire. It is an incredible subject.

Now directly related to this post. In the images above, yes, we see depictions of male figures with similar profiles to Pedro's, but also only two of them are Roman figures. That would be the fragment of the portrait of Marcus Aurelius which is an Imperial Period (170 AD), highly stylized portrait, as most portraits of important figures were at the time. And the Bust of Lucio Emilio Paolo (168 AC) a little less stylized as it was from an earlier period, and sporting that look we often see in media when depicting anything ROME.

Then we have The Hellenistic Prince, a GREEK, bronze statue depicting King Attalus the Second. This is way older from the 2nd century BC about 300 years before Marcus Aurelius's time and a completely different style of sculpture.

Then we have another Hellenistic style, yes ROMAN, sculpture, believed to be a direct copy of a (by that time) ancient Greek sculpture. We also have a completely different race, a SAVAGE depicted in the form of the Dying Gaul, whose beastly identifiers were his THICK, longer hair, and mustache.

And like, this is not to say ROMANS never wore long thick hair or never had beards and mustaches, we have evidence all over the place that they did. But they did during an early period of the Empire. By the time depicted in G2, which is likely 211 DC, the time of Caracalla and Geta. The Romans had adopted that clean shaven close cropped hair look, to DIFERENTIATE themselves from men such a these Savages. The Gauls, the Germans, the Tracians, the Huns, etc... Basically everyone they had subjugated.

Now, again, this is just me ranting so feel free to ignore me. Also, feel free to correct me!

Personally, I think Pedro looks amazing. Is his look period accurate? Likely, no. But also his character is not period accurate as he never fucking existed.

Gladiators never rode Rhinos, and they also didn't have sharks readily available to put in their little coliseum pool battles. But it looks SUPER FUCKING COOL!

Most of the movie is a mix-and-match. where individual things are extremely accurate but often exaggerated because it is a Hollywood MOVIE. Also, it takes elements from many different periods, for example, Lucilla and Lucius were already super dead by the time the creepy brothers came to power. Also as per the trailer's minimal information, I gather Geta would have also likely been dead already (tho it seems in this version Caracalla might be the one to suffer that end), and Macrinus, who was an AFRICAN most likely BLACK politician, did not use Lucius or a Gladiator at all to push forward his profecy-based-plans of overthrowing the empire and taking the throne. He used a simple soldier, who died almost immediately after stabbing Caracalla to death while the crazy kid Emperor had his dick out and was literally taking a piss.

Riddley Scott knows his shit, kinda, he researches and uses the parts he finds most exciting and just makes epic movies with it. It is never going to be 100% accurate and the people upset/annoyed over this have the right to their oppinions.

HOWEVER! No one has the right to be racist against Pedro or Denzel at any point or over anything at all.

In conclusion... Just, ignore me.

Unless you love history and Roman shit and want to chat about it with me and wait excitedly for this, hopefully INCREDIBLE, movie to come out!

End rant.

"Pedro looks so out of place, he doesn't look like he belongs there." Shut up.

I might be nit-picky about accuracy

but I just saw someone complain about the perfect smiles on Gladiator II, and I'm here to tell you. that shit was probably the most accurate part of it all! Romans had good teeth y'all (Even the poor ones to a degree), impeccable oral hygiene.

Did they swish piss around in their mouth to get those pearly whites to sparkle? Sure.... but again, perfect smiles!
