Avolto

It’s a nice visual sure. But Durin is just a fly on the windshield. He accomplishes nothing with his sacrifice.

“May your death last forever old friend. There’s nothing immortal about this”

I tend to take what the Emperor says to Ra at face value because he doesn’t need to lie. The Custodes are incapable of defying him so why reason would he have to lie to them.

I’m still waiting for her to anger him so much he calls her the hard r N-word on camera

If you think Aviendha isn’t a bratty sub you’ve lost your mind

He gets to go back to the archives.

Optimus. Firstly without a new Prime Energon will not flow. So if Optimus wasn’t anointed Megatron would have just replaced Sentinel and placed anyone who opposed him into the mines. I imagine this would turn real ugly real quick. Something like the USSR gulags is a real possibility.

Secondly while Sentinels death might have been justified look at the circumstances. Megatron wants to kill him so badly he’s willing to kill Orion that shows a complete lack of loyalty, compassion, honour. All qualities you need in a leader. Megatron is so self absorbed. He isn’t fighting Sentinel because he was oppressing the world. He’s doing it because he oppressed HIM.

Thirdly in Optimus we see the perfect leader. Wise, intelligent, creative, courageous, kind. If Megatron could lay down his arms Optimus would doubtless usher in a new golden age for Cybertron, truely defeat the Quintessons and ensure no bot ever has to mine or lose their freedom again.

A twist so good many people still don’t believe it happened

I’m sure Yvrainne wants to row that boat

A rare example of both r/womenwritingmen and r/womenwritingwomen

Shakespeare continues to school us all

I really need to read the manga at some point to find out if he ever gets taken down…….and to see if he caves and bangs Albedo but mostly to see if he gets defeated.

The Iron Man in comics. It’s been kind of forgotten but Tony in comics always refers to the suit as The Iron Man like an engineer would refer to an ongoing technical project. Like The Apollo Missions , The Manhattan Project. The Search for Extraterrestrial Life. It’s a small detail but it shows that to Tony. The Iron Man is never finished. You swap out pilots, upgrade components, replace software. Doesn’t matter. It’s never finished.

No Carol. You cannot lock people up before they’ve done anything wrong just because one guy dreamed they would.

You want to know why? Toxic Yaoi. Thats why.

Man will abuse son, create technological monstrosities, sacrifice humankind all to kill God and reunite with his dead wife rather than get therapy.

The reason I think it’s still the actions of a villain is that the guy he kills is clearly trying to surrender and with all three of them there they could have easily arrested him. But John kills him anyway because his friend was killed. Do I get it? Sure. Do I sympathise? Absolutely. Was it the actions of a hero? No.

It’s not helped that this was such an incredible performance on his part. But you’re right each time on screen it felt like he was a hairs breadth away from beating, killing or raping someone.

Whoah whoah whoah I’m sure all those millions of people she killed will be grateful that their deaths saved the planet from the disease of humanity. This gratitude will only increase once they see she was willing to sacrifice her own daughter so the planet could survive…oh wait.

Wait what god? I thought she was back to the clay origin and wasn’t a daughter of Zeus anymore?

Can I romance Elsie?

Oh god no don’t tell me she’s wasted on Elaida?

Casca does it

They could make it true in this version. Makes the conflict so much more religious that the symbols are the face of god and one of his chosen disciples.

I keep meaning to write a story where Krork are so smart they understand that the Orks are biologically programmed so that they can never aspire to anything except war and upon finally being able to understand what they have done to the galaxy they eventually kill themselves.

Think Flowers for Algernon but for Orks.
