just like...
the narrative of this extremely ambitious woman, who gave up everything for her career, her freedom, her friendships, her love... a woman who was ready to break an oath as old as her city to accomplish her lifetime goal... a woman so full of hubris, so confident about her and her era’s power to see herself as equal to the gods... a woman who has never failed at what she was good at.
the narrative of this woman choosing love above all else for just once, seeing their fear of what she’s become and just, choosing to save her friend and the love of her life, in a split second, in an impulse decision.
the narrative of the woman letting her heart make a decision one time, just one time, and this one time causing an apocalypse.
the narrative of the universe proving her that no matter if she tries or not, she’ll lose those closest to her heart anyway.
like, i can’t wait to see where this villain origin story will go.

Interesting question from my wife @interstellarghostparty who is a postpartum nurse about T’au lore. She wanted to know how I felt the postpartum period (time after giving birth) goes for T’au women
Especially since typically the Castes raise children communally, it raises interesting questions about when T’au children would be separated from their mothers. Is it immediately following birth? Do the moms get a recovery period before being sent back to work? Do T’au breastfeed? Is there Ethereal caste mandated baby formula? Are parents ever able to see their biological kids again?
I don’t have a satisfactory answer, what does everyone else think?

Tired of people saying ‘I hope no one loves Snow after the ABOSAS movie.’ You can love a character while simultaneously admitting they’re a piece of shit who would deserve death if they really existed. I love Snow as a character because I find him entertaining, and the way he continually lies to himself throughout the entire book about being a hero while he’s actually sociopathic is fascinating. I would read an entire trilogy about him, I think he’s a great character. I also love the themes THG + ABOSAS bring up - it’s easily possible to enjoy a fictional character while also acknowledging that the narrative is a warning against people like them.
There’s a huge difference between loving/enjoying a character and romanticizing them. If someone is saying ‘hey, I agree with what Snow is doing’ then that’s a whole different ballgame. But moralizing about how ‘if you like this bad character then YOU’RE bad and don’t get the nuances of the story’… C’mon, people. Sure, there are some fans who are that brand of crazy, but I like to think the majority of us are capable of critical thinking. Especially since a good chunk of THG fans are adults now.
Also, young President Snow is canonically hot. Complaints about how people will drool over him because the actor is hot are wild to me because that’s part of the point. Evil can be beautiful and dressed up; I know for a fact there would be endless amounts of bitching if he was some butt-ugly, misshapen, obese hunchback or something because ‘Hollywood always makes the evil people ugly and the good people hot.’ He’s hot and people will thirst over him for that. And that’s fine too. As long as everyone can differentiate between fiction and reality, let them enjoy what they enjoy. Truly, who cares if people wanna be railed by a fictional evil president.

I’m rewatching Wandavision with some friends and guys, words can’t describe how much Wanda Maximoff means to me. I love her so much and her story (so far) hurts my soul

what we really need is shoko to bring back nobara so they can have a bonding moment about being the underappreciated unshakeable girlboss holding the main guys together
