Sometimes a family is a brilliant Biochemist, her husband who's whereabouts and when-abouts she cannot know without putting him in mortal danger, their grandson who is the same age as them, and a Millennium-old Sentient Synthetic being who all live on a time-traveling plane. and that's beautiful.
SOMETIMES a family is a young woman with earthquake powers, her surrogate mother with no emotions of her own, her surrogate father who is now an android BUT has a lot of feelings, and her constantly-bewildered boyfriend who was meant to die in 1955 who all live on a time-traveling plane. and that too, is beautiful.
AND SOMETIMES, these two families (plus a Colombian Speedster with robot arms and her boyfriend, their leader, with his large and powerful form) come together to create one bigger even more beautiful family, who all live on a time-traveling plane.

rb to tell ur mutuals ur fond of them
forget Susan and Lucy (don’t) but please don’t tell me Lewis didn’t like female characters when Polly “don’t touch the obviously cursed bell, you absolute walnut” Plummer, Jill “my litigious bestie and I are here to fight the Antichrist” Pole and Aravis “‘I did not do any of these things for the sake of pleasing you’” Tarkheena exist
1. They aren’t done enough.
2. They help other people understand what a healthy relationship looks like.
3. Fights can last for weeks and still be part of a healthy marriage.
4. Stereotypes. Break all the marriage stereotypes.
5. Soft cute couple moments DON’T stop after marriage.
6. Marriage is completely independent of character arcs. Those two individuals with trauma will still be two individuals with trauma but with gold rings.
7. A healthy marriage is one where people understand that their partners have baggage/trauma/flaws, but love them even in rough patches.
8. It isn’t that healthy marriages aren’t compelling, it’s that people don’t know how to write marriages correctly.
9. Marriages being an end goal often perpetuates that women are trophies to be won.
10. Marriages being an end goal often perpetuates that someone’s “freedom” ends there. Bury this trope, please, I beg of you.

Finally finished my Silmarillion/Lord of the Rings bookmark design! (Tumblr predictably destroyed the quality but you can click to see the original 🥲)
The top follows the story of Silmarillion from the Darkening of Valinor to Elwing’s flight from Sirion (upper left to upper right), and the bottom follows the Lord of the Rings from Bag-End to Mordor (lower right to lower left). At the end, of course, we end up back in Valinor to close the loop.
It ended up a bit cluttered because there was so much I wanted to fit in, but overall I’m rather happy with it :)
@accidental-spice and I are repotting green beans and I accidentally beheaded one of the smallest plants, so now it's the Green (Bean) Knight! In a year and a day it can do the same thing to me, if I manage to plant and grow it properly
Thinking about a howling commandos show that takes place during the war so we get to see more of the commandos’ missions and stuff, and also more development of Steve and Bucky’s relationship. There would be a couple episodes where trains are mentioned or they have missions involving trains to scare the audience, so that it catches everyone off guard when the last ep ends with the scene right before Bucky “dies” in first avenger.
sophie is trying so desperately to view the moving castle and everything inside it as just a stop on her magical self-discovery journey. she tries to leave like four times because she thinks the narrative is ready for her to move on to a new adventure but she doesn't realize she's been rooted here. she thinks the fairy tale has to keep moving but what she doesn't realize is in real life there aren't perfect beat changes. sometimes you don't leave to represent a change in your perspective or goals. in real life you fall in love and get curious about new worlds and get attached to little brothers and fire demons. in real life you make a home.
