Semi-related to my post on how human conservation practices, but I have a cold today, and it's got me thinking about biological altruism—the biological imperative to put other creatures ahead of yourself, to benefit the group.

When talking about possible interactions with other species, we talk a lot about humans being crazy and thrill-seeking and impossible to kill. Never use a warning shot as an incentive to keep humans out of a fight; it'll just make them angry. And that's true. But a valid criticism I've seen in the "Earth is a death world" community is that according to our understanding of evolution, every planet must be some form of death world. Competition fosters evolution—the wolf with sharper claws survives when its litter mates die. You can't reach space travel without some casualties along the way.

But the dog survives because it makes friends with the strange ape carrying a sharp stick. And the strange ape survives because it befriends the wolf. Underneath the death world is an inextricable and undeniable layer of the bond world; the love world; the world, together.

I imagine some worlds are not death worlds. They're peaceful and tranquil. I suspect there are worlds far more deadly than Earth, where the skies rain diamonds, harder than any substance we know with the species to match. And I imagine that they are united in their confusion at the duality of humankind.

Today is a great example: I have a cold, and I want someone to take care of me, but the people who would are immunocompromised, also sick, or live 8 hours away, respectfully. I also want no one within the walls of my apartment or I will eat them. I feel gross, I feel tired, and I don't want a single human being anywhere near me, even if they did bring soup.

In my constant scrolling through my phone today, I decided to look up why the hell I feel so bad—why everyone feels so bad when they're ill. And the answer surprised me. I always thought it was because your immune system is active, so it's using a lot of your energy. That is part of it. Another part is that your brain and body are communicating across the blood-brain barrier to fight the infection, which is rare and energetically expensive.

But that doesn't explain everything, and according to more current research, it could also be what's called the Eyam Hypothesis: that we feel so gross, so we instinctively isolate from other people. We're too tired to deal with others, and so we don't infect them. Misanthropy for the good of the species. Of course, it can also backfire: one of the criticisms of the Eyam Hypothesis is that humans also instinctively care for each other. If my brother has a headache, I drive to the store for Advil.

Personally, I think it's a little bit of both: biological altruism. Either way, the majority live on. The first thought I had this morning when I woke up wasn't "I feel gross" it was "there's no way I'm going to work today." And while that might not be everyone's first thought, you don't even have to be a particularly altruistic person to not want to leave your home or your bed when you're sick. It's inborn.

And so when the human named Ismail comes down with a case of the interstellar common cold, his alien friend Dyos grows very concerned. Ismail is usually intensely social, almost off-puttingly so. Some crew members joke about how his quarters are for sleeping and prayer only; if he's home alone? You should be worried. But when Dyos demands an answer to the severity of Ismail's malady, the other humans just nod knowingly.

"Nah, he's okay, the medics already cleared him. It's not a severe infection."

"But there are so many...fluids. And his body has changed color."

There is a moment of confusion there until they remember that Dyos's species can see in the infrared color spectrum.

"Nah, that's just a low-grade fever. It should break in the next couple days."

"But he doesn’t want to play chess today," Dyos insists.

"Ohhhh," says human Claudia, finally understanding. "No, that's normal. Humans don't like being around other people when they're sick, it's supposed to be one of the major evolutionary advantages. Protect your community from your illness and the genes live on."

"So we're just going to leave him alone?" Dyos is troubled by this. He can go for weeks without speaking to another life form, but he has seen Ismail grow despondent when unable to participate in social gathering.

"Oh, no," human Claudia says, laughing. "We're going to employ one of the other most longstanding human evolutionary advantages."

There are many to choose from and Dyos settles on, "middle age?"

"Sort of," human Claudia opens up a small shipping container and holds up a brown paper bag tied with a colorful ribbon. It glows brightly in Dyos's vision, almost as brightly as human Claudia's smile. "His nanni's hot soup, express delivery."

hi, first off i really love your art. the h/c and warmth really hit me where i live and your illustration style is fantastic. lately i've been obsessed with the post where an unwell milek thinks geralt will leave him behind. was that an ingrained insecurity, assuming his super-witcher dad wouldn't have time for a sickly human kid?

[MASTERPOST] - Ahh, thank you for the ask! Yes, this scene.. I actually saw this a bit differently! It's not about Milek fearing Geralt will leave him behind, he actually wants him to. They need to find his Pa!! I think he often feels like a burden; Jaskier knows this, but Geralt isn't aware of this yet. Milek just wants to pull his weight, especially with Jaskier. A little sneak peak to their struggles regarding this:

Meanwhile Jaskier continues to struggle with his omega status.

#jaskier #the witcher #geraskier lovechild #julian alfred pankratz #omegaverse #there are various things happening here! a. Milek never really had to fear that Jaskier would leave him he knows he never ever would #b. Jaskier said again and again that he'll always care for him and loves him and that he doesn't have to pull any weight at all #c. Jaskier actually became the parent that just wants his kid to be educated and study and learn #(maybe because he knows Milek won't be able to do hard labour but also because he knows what Milek really wants to do) #(filed under: things I haven't drawn yet but they had their big fallout because of oxenfurt and university - things to come in the future) #d. Milek has watched Jaskier working his ass off in various jobs that he didn't like #(and he thinks that prostitution is the worst but only because they didn't properly talk about it before) #e. Jaskier is struggling with how he is percieved - which I think was never that much on his mind when he was travelling with Geralt #being a carefree bard and giving everyone the middlefinger who had some wrong ideas about what he could do and what not #but this is definitely an AU in which he doesn't have a good relationship with his father and he can still hear him say he'll become #'an unbonded omega with a bastard child working on the streets' and I think sometimes it gets to him #(because Jaskier is king of hating his parents ever being right about him) #that Jaskier kind of wants to spare Milek and quietly hopes we won't become an omega - even if he feels bad about it - shall become plot #(one dayyyy) #anyway that was a very long rant about Mileks complex relationship with him feeling like a burden

'Radical feminist' is a role you have to perform and actively work towards not a label you can identify into. Lest any of y'all have forgotten: we are meant to be examples to the women and girls around us that you can exist and have a fulfilling life while defying patriarchal teachings and practices.

#lily responds #I don't expect any of you to be perfect feminist. but there should be a few tenants you can name you uphold visibly and openly #some of y'all don't do shit but hang out on radbler and act like that makes you a radical feminist. honey that makes you an orbiter. #a supporter at best #I'm so tired of in action being defended as actual feminism just because y'all agree with a lot of the shit we say. #its okay to be an ally. we need allies. quit pretending like you deserve to be at the table when you've done none of the work to earn it #this isn't about the other drama I've commented on. this is about watching some of y'all defend never reading a bit of the literature or #doing a slightly challenging feminist action in your life. half of y'all won't even talk to your friends about radical feminism. #you're just not a feminist because you're not an activist. you're doing no actions

[parlerenfleurs]

Starting to think, going by the MXTX fandoms, that a lot of people are comfortable with being a bit terrible and not thriving for an ideal whatsoever, because they really really reeaaally want to believe Xue Yang and Jiang Cheng are poor cuties who weren't lucky and the heroes are a bunch of holier-than-thou arrogant bitches who need to be taken down a peg when the text says the opposite, because then it justifies their own faults and hatred of genuinely awesome people who seem to have it better in life and isn't that sooo unfair and isn't it fair that they should suffer to learn what it's like to suffer like them, poor tortured, petty, flawed humans who see themselves in the villains rather than the heroes.

#Bloom talks #I'm out of patience with people who have decided not to be better and won't take any responsibility for it #oh but I suffer so~ #newsflash asshole most people struggle horribly at some point or another and yet some of us decide to be good #and also some of us are indeed gifted and impressive and it is something to be celebrated and yes admired on occasion #I love a good gifted person #who shines bright and leads an amazing life #the Wei Wuxians of the world are a treasure #you want to love Jiang Cheng because you feel you are like him and want to be loved? #I don't know man have you TRIED not being an asshole? people have an easier time loving you if you try you know? #you don't have to adopt it as your whole identity and make it everyone else's problem #so fucking tired of seeing people not even try #IT'S FINE TO BE CLEAR to relate to Jiang Cheng and be an asshole inside #we all are a little bit of an asshole inside!! #just stoop pretending he's actually good and Wei WuXian is bad! #yes I'm talking about a general thing with this very specific thing yes #mxtx #mdzs

My dad was very against me getting a dog and then IMMEDIATELY fell in love with her. Like he absolutely adores her. He started off like 'uggh I don't want to end up having to take care of it' and now he REQUESTS to babysit her every couple weeks or so just for fun. He will just sit there petting her and chuckling and saying "She just makes me laugh :)" to himself. He calls himself her 'grandpa'. The bond between an aging father and the pet he didn't want is probably the deepest love on earth.

#(I don't live with my parents but we are actively in each others lives so me getting a dog would inevitably affect them) #He literally keeps talking about how it's like having a grandchild come visit LOL (he's not the 'overly humanizing pets' type but just #the 'bond with dogs feels familial' type) #She LOVES him too she gets so excited when she realizes she's going to Grandpa House #She's very shy with strangers but approaches men roughly his age and size to sniff them and I'm pretty confident that she's checking to #see if they're him. Like she won't approach any other demographic. #I think she likes him SLIGHTLY more than me lol but it's fair because my parents' dog likes me SLIGHTLY better than them so #it balances out

Continued dumb things that rattle around in my noggin at like, all times.

This is nothing new, of course; we have talked to DEATH how significant that moment of surprise is in the context of quimchee revealing that Nol likes a nice smile. But the additional context I enjoy is that we know by this stage the friendships Nol meant to be pretend were so real. We already can glean that Nol was very drawn to Shinae in a genuine way - both as a person he wanted to help but also as a friend he earnestly wanted to be friends with.

But, correct me if I'm wrong, this is the first time he sees her smile like that - at a time when she's clearly uncomfortable and miserable on the spot in front of so many people, without her comfort jacket, at an event he knows she's being forced to attend. And it's because of him.

Nol's whole thing is helping people, putting good back into the universe, trying to improve situations for other people. He's surely made Dieter and Soushi smile and laugh.

But here it feels SO loaded and significant. Shinae with her tall, dense walls. Shinae who has been so difficult to reach. Shinae whose friendship he genuinely wants, genuinely enjoys, despite how she tried to stay safe in her shell, in this uncomfortable moment laughing and smiling in such a bright radiant way.

He's a sucker for a good smile.

And he brought her that comfort.

I don't think it's necessarily an attraction thing as much as it's one of those very important bricks laid in their foundation. Nol doesn't in that moment consciously realize he likes Shinae. I think something just strikes him in that moment. That smile, that radiant joy, makes him feel something he can't identify.

THINK ABOUT IT. He's just come back from meeting Alyssa who immediately took off after Meg even though they haven't met in so long. Standing here watching Shinae endure an awkward, uncomfortable dance in front of strangers, everyone recognizes Kousuke - but not Nol. He's a stranger to his family's world, even to his girlfriend. He's just another guy in the crowd.

But there's Shinae, who sees him. The same Shinae who has taken notice of his scuffed knuckles. The same Shinae who, after the dance, immediately goes to him and asks about him.

It's no wonder he says this.

I think seeing Shinae at the formal, clearly against her will, is the moment Nol remembers what happens to people he cares about. He got invested, he sought her friendship, and even though he doesn't know why she's there, he's certain it's her proximity to him. Even before Sangchul, before the pool, Nol remembered the danger.

It's after this he gives Kousuke his word that he'll avoid Shinae, and I think that's why. He already had the intention of distancing himself. It was supposed to be fake and he knew it wasn't and that he doesn't deserve her friendship he put her in danger by showing interest. She had drawn boundaries, she didn't even really want his friendship it'd be fine.

But then he made her laugh. But then she spotted him when no one else did. Then she burst into that bright, radiant laughter because of him and he probably knew: it was too late. He screwed up and yet....

Nothing is okay everything is messed up but he puts on that mask anyway. For friendship. Because he needs to. For her comfort. So he can convince himself he can actually pull away. So he can convince himself it doesn't mean anything else.

So he can convince himself someone cares about him, that maybe something is real even if real means danger.

(But he can't and we know it and we watch it over and over. It's too late and he just can't stay away.)

On the "darker" side of being comforted by one's immortality (not in the physical, but metaphorical), I've always been comforted by bone needles.

The idea that even after death, you've still been remembered by how you are used. No, bone needles probably weren't used with human bones, but it's a reminder that you aren't just going to... disappear. I'm comforted in the knowledge that I don't end in a "me" but in a "we," in nature. Everything about me is reused material so much more ancient than I am, and knowing that, I feel so much closer to the world.

#positivity #death positive #death tw #i know i mentioned the last part in a different post but i will never ever forget that nor will i talk about it only once #and the fact that we've found fifty THOUSAND year-old bone needles comforts me too #if you want immortality then there - that's your immortality staring you in the face! #we like to concieve of immortality as something you hold direct witness to but that's only a fantasy... #...in reality you will be immortalized - or likely will be - but it's in such a way you won't be able to witness it firsthand #i have always grappled with the knowledge i could be remembered and recognized and noticed in ANY way #i don't want that and knowing that i am simply borrowing what makes me 'me' does comfort me #it takes the burden off of being Me if that makes sense #this isn't about self-hatred but a burning desire to perfect the craft of being an actual person #i was so absorbed in being Me that i forget that i am part of this universe #human-centeredness will convince you that humans are almost... separate from the universe... #...that humans are unique from the concept of Nature and the World... #...blame it on capitalism or blame it on hubris or blame it on lack of insight... but when you discover how directly connected... #...to the universe you are i think you can learn to sit and appreciate... all of it #from the beetle crawling over your shoe to the wasp gazing into your car mirror... you'll appreciate it #i wonder if anybody else Gets what i'm ranting about here. i always feel weird talking about the things that bring me comfort

On your boundaries you listed LFLS I’m pretty new to the fandom n wanna ask whats the acronym for? Sorry if that’s invasive/rude I don’t wanna accidentally look up an AU if it involves bad stuff asdgh

Like Father Like Son - LFLS

To keep it brief, it's a fanfic about the kidnapping and torture of Leo in the hands of, as far as we have seen, Baron Draxum. The fanfic in itself involved a lot of elements that personally make us uncomfortable, i'm sure the author has since updated the tags to properly warn people what the fanfic involves by now.

#lfls mention #we don't want to be involved in any discourse talk about it #so if someone responds or sends asks asking for further information on our stance we won't be answering

[fromtheseventhhell]

The more I think on it I think the lack of the time skip may have affected how GRRM wanted to have the dynamic between Littlefinger and Sansa to play out. With the time skip we'd be coming back to an 18 year old Sansa who's had 5 years of either learning to be his protege, being under his manipulations, or secretly plotting against him. Without it we're coming back to a 13 year old Sansa newly traumatized by her aunt trying to kill her who's still figuring out how much she can and should trust the him. An 18 year old Sansa probably would've been in on the plan to resolve to be Sansa Stark and take North but now he has to restructure the plan for a younger Sansa, who ends up being a more passive party going along with what Littlefinger wants than a more active participant.

It actually does help a lot that we have access to a couple of different AFFC drafts. Sansa's the only character to have all her chapters in that book accounted for as early as October 2003 but the talk with Littlefinger at the end of Alayne II was still missing as of the June 2004 version. His dialogue about Cersei in GRRM's other note isn't an exact match to the published version either, he sounds more amused by how quickly she fucked things up for herself than saying she's overreached and will soon be done. GRRM hadn't even written the part where he explains Harry the Heir's role as her betrothed, but her next planned chapter is all about her needing to seduce him.

What actually seems to be new material is what he crossed out involving Sweetrobin and news from W(hite) H(arbor), along with killing the Mad Mouse (but were those two points crossed out because he pushed them out of the book or scrapped them in favor of focusing on Shadrich?) I definitely think GRRM is setting Sansa up as one of the driving conflicts involving the Stark succession crisis in TWOW with Littlefinger whispering in her ear about her deserving Winterfell and possible news of her siblings being fakes. Definitely the basis of the season 7 fight between Sansa and Arya came from GRRM, no matter how painfully poorly written it was. The question of who ends up ruling the North isn't compelling if it simply involves them all saying they don't want it and another sibling can have it, you need to have a least one who truly wants it and believes it's their right.

I wholeheartedly agree that the lack of a time skip changed the dynamic between LF and Sansa. If we'd had the time skip it would've allowed time for Sansa to grow + learn from her time with LF and we likely would've come back to her being more politically savvy and confident, which would've set the stage for her doing her own scheming. Instead, like you said, we have a Sansa who is (currently) going to be more passive in his plans. It's a little disappointing because that growth would've been interesting, but it seems like her development has taken a backseat to LF's planning. She could still have that development but it won't be anywhere as dramatic as it would've been because that's not how George develops his characters. With her TWOW sample chapter, it seems that her development will be dependent on when George wants to reveal LF's plan. When that comes out, we'll likely start to see Sansa becoming more active.

As for the other plot points in the outline, the crossed-out ones could still be on the table. Arya has a crossed-out point of "mercy at the gate" and "Mercy" is her opening in TWOW. SW "woos/weds" is very interesting to me and could signify a change in LF's plans. I don't believe that they're going to be a "driving force" for the Northern plot, I believe their actions will be reactionary, but I do think that whatever happens North will have an impact. LF believes that Sansa is the only Stark left to claim the Winterfell so that meant he could take his time (with the time skip he would've been waiting years); the exposure of Robb's will + four other Starks coming back into play will significantly change things and his timeline. We don't know what LF's real plans are but getting this news (from white harbor?) will affect what he's told Sansa and her feelings on the matter. She's going along with his plans because the idea of retaking Winterfell has been presented to her, and I can see her latching onto that. If Jon becomes King, which is very likely, it could lay the ground for conflict between them. While Sansa has been pretending to be a bastard she hasn't really confronted her classism or behavior towards him. We know that Arya and Sansa are going to have issues to work out, to whatever level, so I don't think it's impossible that other sibling conflicts will exist.

There are also the developments with the KL (southern?) plot to consider. With JonCon making trouble for the Lannister's + Tommen's reign facing problems he could try, or be forced, to interact with that plot. The Northern plot won't be the only thing to influence what's happening in the Vale, or LF's actions. His main goal probably wasn't ever to claim Winterfell, it was just a bonus to him having Sansa in his grasp. If things become too "active" there he might readjust his attention. There are a lot of different things that could impact the plot, some things that will only be introduced in TWOW, and ways the plot could play out so it's hard to say anything concrete about it.

#ask #anon #outline discussions #it's hard to have any concrete theories because there's just so much up in the air #love that people send me asks discussing book content like this though cause I love to talk about it #don't worry guys George is going to release the books so we won't have to speculate 🤪

I don't comment often bc I usually don't have anything specific to say and don't believe in speaking filler words that don't actually mean anything. You aren't entitled to comments or positive feedback that people don't want to give, just as the viewer not entitled to art you don't want to make or publish. Hope you get over yourself soon!

So you rather not say even "Thank you for this fic" but you take it and go away? Because you don't care about "filler words"? Because they don't matter to you, then it POSSIBLY can't matter for anyone else either? Because we're all you, right?

No one is entitled to get feedback from anyone - or like Danny said, you don't need to say thank you for anyone, but if you don't just because you don't feel like it, well, you're a jerk - but no one is entitled to just take and not even say "thank you". In such a case, you already have made a decision for an other person that the author, the artist, the gif maker, the plushie maker, the cosplayer, the voice actor, the youtuber etc. doesn't need any feedback. If that isn't entitled, then I don't know what is.

I don't personally care if I get comments or feedback - if I don't get them enough or I feel what I'm giving out there not worth of my time and effort anymore, then I just stop doing and sharing it. Very simple. This is not itching my ass but I'm speechless how self-centered some fandom people are like "Well, I don't feel like doing it". Don't do it then, no one is forcing you, this isn't any fandom oppression for fuck's sake, but don't complain either if people stop giving your fandom new things because they feel unseen, unappreciated and like screaming into a black hole.

You do not get to decide for other people that this or that can't be important to anyone else because it is not important to me. That's some right wing, capitalistic rhetoric; I have no personal need for housing for homeless, so this can't be important topic for anyone, so I don't support housing for homeless. Homeless people can stop whining and be grateful for their cardboard boxes. No one needs to help homeless people. They need to get over themselves.

Different topic, same ignorance at the core level (albeit homelessness is a much more serious issue than fandom ignoring other fandom people).

Sure, everyone can be as much of a jerk as they ever want to. Ignore others as much as they ever desire. No one's stopping them. Does it create a positive, supportive environment for new things to bloom and people to be happy? Well.....

#I assume you're very young for such a weird view but I reply to you this time #for any else fandom wank I DONT WANT TO BOHOO #I won't answer #as we''re talking here with people who need to be seen and supported #not to be kicked more in the head because someone just feels like kicking them in the head because it won't hurt the kicker #and again this is not personal as GIMME COMMENTS AND FEEDBACK #you can discuss about different topics without it being personal #that's how adult do it at least #and you're supposeed to be able to do it if you want a working social environment #whether out there or in here #I'm here for those who feel unseen #not for those you don't want to see others #fandom #ask niu

don't you think it's funny how the answer that Seiji might desperately searching for about the mask might be with Shuuichi even if he doesn't know the importance of it himself ...

while the answer that Shuuichi was dying to know ever since he entered the exorcist world about his family might be with Seiji ...

but with the communication and wariness issues between the two they just never talk and knew xDD

#natsume yuujinchou #natsuyuu #Shuuichi might never realize that ... #or even if he realizes Seiji have more knowledge about this world so he might know something he'd be too proudful to even ask #while on Seiji part I believe he might realize Shuuichi's desire but won't bother telling him either from “ignorant is bless” standpoint #or cuz why tell him if he never ask and watch him silently #or maybe he just doesn't know that this mask is with the Natori #either way .. I find it kinda funny and just something that might happen with them #seeing by how their relationship is ... #or maybe both know about all of this and we're the one behind ? #but judging by Shuuichi's reaction in the cousin arc he really doesn't know anything about the mask .... #and seeing how he doesn't know a thing about his family overall cuz they “hate him” is yeaaah ... #hated by both his family and the exorcist world .. no wonder he's in the dark about the deep stuff in this world from the past ... #while Seiji knows alot but won't bother to talk or express and would be the idiot part perfectly #the more so now that he's the Matoba's leader #my mind is running wild and trying to survive till next chapter #and knowing that we won't get any exorcist arc for a while is torture #unless .....

there's this really funny thing cishet women used to do to me when i was a bi man where, upon learning I'm bi, suddenly pull out their phone to start looking up all their favorite men to see how i feel about them.

and like. I'm bi. i have all the choices in the world and there's all these beautiful queers with cool genders and ways of expressing themselves, and even some cishet ppl who are really just having fun with themselves - and you choose to show me the most boring chiselled men in suits??

by the time we hit somewhere from the 6th to 10th man feelings get HURT before I'm finally asked “well who do YOU think is cute!!?” and I blow their mind with my choices every time because i have good taste.

I'm sorry.. I don't know how to tell you you're picking from the bottom of the barrel here.. have you seen queer people?? the average woman??

#they lose their minds (good) over how beautiful queer men can be but.. won't date one #obv I'm being v general in my wording but I'm just thinking about like 2 or 3 specific people I've talked with irl #the last time was this girl trying to find a distraction on her dating app and she'd keep showing me dudes and I'd keep going #(⁠´⁠-⁠﹏⁠-⁠`⁠；⁠) ... as long as u like him .. #i ghosted her over it actually 🧍‍♀️ she needed help getting the ball rolling so i helped her out a bit #and the dude she was talking with is so... he's an ex boot boy.. makes being street his whole personality but he's not black #and then she's over here wooed by him like a baby looking at some jangley keys.. girl.. we r not the same kind of person.. #we're not even Close 😹 lotta red flags w that one though i was kinda scared to let her get any closer to me but that's a whole other rant

Honestly I’m choosing to be an optimist and believe that Elden Henson at the least could still be in DD Born Again (haven’t heard anything about Deb so not sure there). As best I can tell, all the current rumors that he and Deb aren’t there trace back to a single article stating Elden and Deborah aren’t on the current call sheet. And having known folks who worked in TV, this doesn’t necessarily mean they aren’t on the cast list. It just means that what DD is filming right now doesn’t require them - think action scenes, solo scenes. It could mean that, say, Jon’s on a time crunch and so they’re just going to shoot everything with him and Charlie first so he can leave and then they’ll hit everything else. It could mean, ‘yeah ok we buffed all our dudes up so we’re just gonna get the hardcore fights and the shirtless scenes done ASAP’. Kevin has been open about how much he loved Netflix DD, and the fact that he’s already pulled in Charlie, Vincent, and Jon, along with - seemingly - Krysten if the hints on twitter are right, makes me hopeful that this is just a, ‘They’re being secretive and are filming things in a certain order’.

I’m keeping my fingers crossed, anyway.

#daredevil #daredevil: born again #elden henson #foggy nelson #i'm holding onto what i know from folks who work in tv #they literally have to film this shit out of order and sometimes have to navigate cast schedules so i'm hoping #that they're just like #'yeah we gotta get all the gritty heavy stuff done first' #and then they'll come back to all the non-fighty hard core things and that's when elden will pop up #and where deb will pop up #alternatively marvel's just baiting people into talking about it like they did with all the rumors #about who would and wouldn't be in multiverse of madness #i'm not willing to make the leap yet and assume our foggy won't be there #i'm honestly not sure about deb cause i know she's said she hasn't gotten any calls and vincent has been campaigning to bring her back too #BUT #marvel contracts also tend to require you to pretend you're not gonna be in shit so idk
