Arthur sends Merlin on some job and wants him to take a knightly escort to keep him out of trouble. Merlin: I'll take Gwaine with me Arthur: I said "keep you out of trouble" not "guarantee you'll get into it". Take Lancelot with you, he's the least likely to commit treason with you Merlin: You say that like he's never committed treason with me
OH MY GOD
HE'S LITERALLY ASKING HIS SON'S BOYFRIEND WHY HIS SON ISN'T GAY ANYMORE I'M DYING
everyone always focuses on Sokovia and Ultron and Tony's involvement but no one ever thinks about how Bruce was also involved completely because they're both scientists. no one thinks about Wanda purposefully going in and digging in Tony's head, amplifying his PTSD and putting visions of all his friends dead in his head with the intent of making Tony create Ultron
Everyone always focuses on blaming Tony for the bomb that killed Wanda's parents but no one thinks about Tony being so shit faced he couldn't see straight at that time bec he was so deep in self-medicating his trauma that he could not even run his company and that it was Obidiah Stane that was the one in charge of the company and illegally selling the weapons that killed her parents
Everyone focuses on Tony selling weapons in the first movie but no one thinks about how it was Howard Starks company and that Tony was groomed from birth to run it and that he had tried multiple times to make something else of the company but was constantly shut down with guilt tripping until he was kidnapped and he forced the manufacturing to end
Everyone focuses on Tony being "conceited" and "arrogant" and not "caring about anyone but himself" but no one thinks about how every single action he makes in his movies are about protecting the people he loves and cares for. His biggest fear is his friends- not himself- dying. he goes into every battle he's in fully prepared to die and does make the sacrifice play many many times
everyone always focuses on what Tony did wrong, but no one thinks about how much he has grown and how he spends every single waking moment trying to be a better and better man who cares so deeply about everyone and is trying to protect everyone the only way he knows how- and that is with the brain and intellect that had been the only thing about Tony that was ever praised about
Kelly: I think it's so nice that they got her wife to present the Pulitzer, it just made it feel really special.
Alex: Lena and Kara aren't married.
Kelly: Oh, sorry, girlfriend.
Alex: They're not dating either.
Kelly: What???
Alex: I know, we have a betting pool on how long it will take them to realise.
my most popular fics to date and people wonder why fic authors leave this platform. so let me break it down for you:
likes do nothing. not a single goddamn thing except say "hey, I've seen this post". that's the extent of it.
replies don't spread the word, BUT they are a great place to leave feedback AFTER you've reblogged a fic
reblogs w commentary in the tags are literally one of the best things you can do
reblogs w comments attached are the other best thing you can do
if you don't reblog, our work doesn't get shared; surprise, but we don't post just to let our work sit there and collect dust
outright telling authors how a fic made you feel, what you liked about it, etc KEEPS US GOING! it doesn't even have to be a long paragraph, it can be "I loved X bc of Y!" or a fucking bunch of emojis!
you should be reblogging fic
if you're too shy to leave comments on them - make a different account just for reblogging fic! use the anon ask feature! send a DM!
to put it plainly: if you want fanfic authors to keep posting what they've written - FUCKING REBLOG IT AND GIVE US FEEDBACK
just a little reminder: had tony not pulled the strings he pulled, wanda would've spent life-long imprisonment rotting in jail in a high security cell instead of spending a comfy holiday inside a huge luxury mansion with her months-old android crush. and then her unthankful ass had to send all that to shit. man, tony was way too nice to this neo-nazi genocidal scumbag, even after she violated his mind out of pure vengeful hatred. yes im still salty:))
Gwaine: Listen up, lads, I've got a great idea-
Elyan: No.
Gwaine: You didn't even let me-
Lancelot: No.
Gwaine: But I-
Percival: No.
Gwaine: *gasp* Et tu, Percy?
Leon: *grabs Gwaine by the tunic and points at the sign on the wall*
Leon: You see that? "It Has Been 27 Days Since Our Last Disaster." Three more days, and Guinevere will make us cake.
Leon, shaking Gwaine for emphasis: And - I - want - that - cake.
This is so amazing!
@zoeconstellation mentioned how no one shipped leoxpercy (lercy? peo?) and i said it was because they have like 2 canon interactions.
SO
this got me thinking that the two could actually be really good friends. which led to this (under the break):

I actually remember reading this on the anti Wanda maximoff tag some time ago,but it really made an impact.the post was talking about how Wanda stans/tony antis shit on tony for trying to kill Bucky(which he wasn't bc he would have destroyed him,we've all seen iron man 2 and 3.if he wanted you dead you'd be dead)but like rabidly support Wanda and her revenge.
When I said I wanted more female representation in the MCU, this was not what I meant.
Honestly, Wanda stans give me a worse headache than cap stans. At least with Cap stans, Ik they’re just falling for that stupid USA propaganda. Other than being fooled by her white woman tears™️, idk wtf is wrong with her stans.
Wanda fully aware chose to join Hydra, a neo-nazi organization, as an adult, just because they were offering her “revenge” on Tony Stark, which makes her a fucking neo-nazi. She consciously decided to use her powers to mind-rape the Avengers. She actively decided to send the Hulk on a rampage to kill innocent civilians. She actively supported Ultron up until she realized she was one of the fucking humans he was going to wipe out, which makes her joining the Avengers a conflict of interest at best and pure self preservation/manipulation at worst. And all of that is just Avengers: Age of Ultron.
Later, she murders POC innocent civilians because she has no control over her powers, then gets upset and throws a fit when Tony says, “hey, maybe you shouldn’t be on life-or-death missions when you can’t control your powers”. Imagine if someone who didn’t know how to use a gun waltzed into the middle of a highly stressful mission in the middle of civilian ground with a machine gun, murdered innocent people, then got upset that they had to face consequences.
Then she throws a fit when someone suggests her microwave boyfriend’s life is less important than millions of innocent civilians, and with Cap’s support, thousands of Wakandans (black Africans) are killed, for nothing might I add considering she did a shit job and Thanos still got a hold of Vision’s stone, and half of the universe is snapped.
And woe is she, so she loses control of her powers, again, and enslaves a whole fucking city. But she didn’t know! So when she finds out that she’s hurting all of them, she throws another fit and forces them to continue playing along with her little fantasy.
And not once has she ever learned from any of her mistakes. Not once has she been humbled. Not once has she been forced to face the consequences of her actions. In fact, for her mistakes, others are punished.
But it’s alright. All of this is alright. She’s grieving and traumatized after all. Right? Because Tony Stark killed her parents with his bomb when she was a child.
Cry me a river. Why doesn’t she try to get revenge on the terrorists that deployed the bombs? Why does she actively choose to be an entitled cunt and put thousands of POC lives at risk? Why does she join a fucking neo-nazi organization?
Imagine going “oh I’m sad, I’ll join the KKK to feel better”.
But Tony is rich and she’s a white woman and she cries on screen.
And that, right there, is their logic I guess.
now this is what writing is supposed to be
A strange alien doctor stands near the unconscious body of Padme Amidala. “It appears she has lost the will to live.” A older man with a limp hobbles closer with the aid of a cane. “That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard,” says Dr. Gregory House.
“this ship isn’t canon” to YOU. I, however, am delusional
Dudes my acc has been like 5 reposts a year but I wanna change that! I’m hoping to start posting weekly! I’m probs gonna focus on Marauders and MCU for now.
