I Think If Indiana Jones' Adoring Students Ever Went On An Adventure(tm) With Him It Would Be Really

3:10 to Yuma and Red Dead Redemption

There's many similarities to the 2007 film, 3:10 to Yuma, and Red Dead Redemption 2!

So if you love Westerns, cowboys, hot guys, potential for fanfiction in a movie, and a beautiful short story, you might want to watch 3:10 to Yuma!

Here are the similarities between 3:10 to Yuma and RDR 2!

Charlie Prince (3:10 to Yuma), he's an outlaw, he's loyal, and? He's a bit too much like Micah. Hell sometimes they sound like each other!

Ben Wade (3:10 to Yuma): He's an outlaw with a heart, the leader of the gang who goes from being fully of himself and not caring for his gang or anyone for that fact, to developing a friendship with a broke rancher which possibly changed his mindset! I'd say he's similar to Dutch Van Der Linde and Arthur Morgan. Plus he draws.

I know this post is a bit of a stretch but I just need more people to watch and talk about 3:10 to Yuma.

subscribing to a fic isn’t enough I need the author to blast a bat signal into the night sky whenever they update

i ran a (proper) 5k today, and i think running is becoming really, really important for my mental health. the adhd-and-whatever-else cocktail in my brain makes me feel like life is passing me by, like i’m unable to function at the same pace as other people. i constantly tell myself: i’m going to do this, i’m starting that, i’m going to paint today, i’m going to finish [x]. but after a while, you get burned out from lying to yourself, from spending yet another day doing nothing to move forward. somehow, though, running has been the one thing i’ve stuck with. i’ve hated it at times. i’ve run in the fucking rain. the path has been flooded and icy. but it’s the one promise i’ve made to myself in the past year that i haven’t let myself down on, and that feels really good for my brain.

HELL YEAH THE NICE GUYSSS

Would Dr. Robotnik hire workers to build his larger inventions? Would he build them himself? Survey says no, therefore Stone does it

the nice guys&animals&girls

I don't think Robotnik ever saw Stone's affection as genuine. He's used to people only valuing him if he's useful. His own bosses call him a freak, yet they put up with him because of his "perfect operation record". He isn't even shocked when he learns the goverment erased him, he expected it and had a contingency plan ready.

He keeps calling Stone a sycophant and a barnacle, because why else would someone stay with him if not to gain something? Clearly, Stone is just a suck-up wanting to ride his coattails. And Ivo is fine with that! He gets his ego stroked and in return Stone gets a slice of the world-domination pie. Mutually beneficial!

This symbiotic relationship gives Ivo a sense of control and ensures that Stone won't abandon him like everyone else. It also keeps him detached: of course Stone waited months or him to return from space, that's his job. His admiration is inevitable, and meaningless.

Ivo develops a genuine, irrational attachment to Stone, one he's able to rationalize as just being transactional. Those emotional walls shield him from the fear of abandonment that comes with caring for another person.

Except...even after Robotnik becomes a liability, Stone stays. There's no benefit, no plans of ruling humanity, not even a paycheck. Yet despite everything, Ivo tries to keep the old boss/employee dynamic going. He can't fathom the idea that someone would stay for anything other than convenience.

Then Gerald shows up, and for the first time Ivo allows himself to put down those walls. As an orphan he had built up this idealized image of family that he thought he could never have. People will use you then toss you aside when convenient, but family? Family is different. Family will always be there for you and love you no matter what. Family won't abandon you.

And suddently Stone's grovelling is no longer necessary. Why would he need someone who just pretends to like him when he now has all the unconditional love he's always longed for? That's obviously why Stone got so jealous, it couldn't have been real concern, he was just afraid of losing his comfy position as the lapdog of humanity's new king. Between a sycophant and family, the choice felt obvious.

And, of course, Gerald turns out to be just like everyone else in Ivo's life: just another person trying to get something from him. The second he stopped being useful, he was tossed aside.

His image of family is once again shattered, but those emotional walls are already down. Now that Ivo experienced that betrayal he was so afraid of, now that he's about to die, he's finally able to be honest with himself.

Looking down on Earth, he realizes there had only ever been one person on that blue marble who actually cared. Someone who had always been there, even when there was nothing to gain. Stone had never abandoned him.

But he had abandoned Stone. He tossed him aside, just like Gerald did to him. Now that he's able to understand how Stone felt, this is his last chance to make things right.

In his final moments, with nothing to fear, Robotnik puts down his emotional walls and opens up as best as he can. Stone had done so much for him, asked for nothing in return, and now it was his turn to do the same. Ivo helped save the world, not for recognition or convenience, but simply out of love.

Stone had always been a sycophant to him, yes, but he had also been a friend. A sycofriend.

3:10 to Yuma Fanfic Ideas!

Have you just seen 3:10 to Yuma (2007) or rewatched it, only to look on AO3 and realize, "There isn't a wide variety of Fanfiction, damn it's more empty than my wallet!" Well, if you're in the writing mood or need plot ideas, I've got you!

(These can be used for more than just 3:10 to Yuma, but using it for 3:10 to Yuma would be so amazing.❤️)

Wade and Dan living together to 'help' Dan pay rent💀😭

3:10 to Yuma but Dan survives and becomes changed by the overall experience while Wade becomes a good person since Dan has broken his perspective on the world.

Dan dies and Wade tells his story(can be written in many different ways)

Dan survives and takes care of Wade's injuries that he gained from the whole trip to get to the train.

Modern Au where Ben Wade is part of a motorcycle gang and Dan is whatever job you think he should have.

Alice leaves, Wade and Dan raise William and Mark😱

Coffee shop AU! But Dan works at a coffee shop and Wade is an artist or just goes there to draw. (Can take place in a modern au or in the original setting time)

Ben Wade and Dan Evans are just friends who travel together after 3:10 to Yuma (with Dan surviving.)

Wade is nice to Dan but Dan doesn't like it too much because it makes him feel inferior (can be applied to listed fanfic ideas)

Brokeback Mountain.

I'm sure you can tell all of these are Dan x Wade. If you guys want Dan x Alice, or a different ship, lemme know, I can also try to come up with other shops than Ben Wade x Dan Evans.

You can only reblog this today.

Stobotnik doodles be upon thee! 🫴🥚🪨

First one of my favorite classic Vine memes. (IDKY I went with the blue lighting... deal with it.)

Theres a cute Robotnik with polkadot pjs I saw in his gallery on the Wiki... and I mean if I found it cute I figured Stone would be crazy about it. Also Shitake Mushroom Plant naps with the homie after a long day of eating shrooms and licking quills.

Metal Sonic is so cute.... Why no Metal Tails? The bapies. He could drop bombs on people! (Little does Ivo know the Metal boys are for smooches on their shiny metal heads.)

Some of the furry doodles...

Dog!Stobotnik! I think itd be funny if they were dogs and Sonic & them were still weird little anthro aliens just fighting regular, if gay, dogs that they could not understand because they dont speak dog.

Ratbotnik and his loyal puppy. I really wanted to make Rabbotnik for the pun but hes such a rat man for the sewers it just wouldnt be right...

STACHE SMASHER. A diabolical name really.
