you dislike Luke Castellan because he disagreed with an oppressive government system and actually took action to change the abusive ways him and his peers have been forced to follow for millennia.
I dislike Luke Castellan because in the Titans Curse he manipulated Annabeth, who he raised as his little sister, into holding up the sky, the FUCKING sky, for over 20 hours and had the audacity to walk away as though he was completely apathetic towards it while she begged and pleaded with him to help her.
we are not the same.
yes.
So we all agree that Brisket Five is the real OG Five and the Five we had in s4 was an evil doppelganger right
Didn't think I could be even more furious about s4... and then I saw the cut scenes. They *cut that* for ten fucking minutes of vomiting and baby shark. They cut Five being *caring*, they cut Rob acting his goddamn heart out. That's literally the most concern Five shows for his siblings this whole fucking season in a minute long scene. And goddamn but Klaus getting... an actual moment, actual resolution, I genuinely teared up and felt more on the edge of my seat/had more of an emotional reaction at the end of the AA meeting than I had to the ENTIRE FUCKING SEASON 4.
Brisket Five!! the newly and improved Five đđ(forgetting the og Five for now)
Woohoo!! WOOOOOO-
ok guys. hear me out. fives actions this season? absolutely the fuck not. HOWEVER. fives looks this season? iâve passed away. iâm dead. hot hot hot hot. give me a chance mr. homewrecker

AHHHH THIS IS SOO GOOD
Summary: After you find out that your husband of 40 years cheated on you with his own brotherâs wife, you give up on figuring out how to fix the apocalypse and run off. Thatâs when youâre lead to a suspicious deli full of the exact face you never wanted to see again.

Disclaimer: Five is canonically in the body of an 18 year old in this season. Not to mention he aged like 7 more years with Lila. Also, obvious Season 4 spoilers. This season was awful and Five was done so dirty and heâs still ooc in this fic (or at least a version of him is)
âââââââââââââââââââââââ
You had no idea how long you had been walking for. All you knew was that you were tired.
Tired of everything. Of the constant apocalypses, the fighting, the stress, âŠthe lying, the heartache. Everything.
You had to get away from that place. You couldnât stand to be around anyone from that family anymore. AroundâŠhim.
You and Five have been married for forty years. You both met in the first apocalypse as teens. You werenât special like him or his siblings but you were both grateful to have someone else around.
You slowly fell in love over the years as you grew older together. You had a makeshift marriage with a ring Five had made for you out of random bits of metal he had found.
You had both been recruited into the Commission together and quickly became the most badass couple in the entire organization. You were always put on missions together for your efficiency and speed.
You had followed Five back in time to see his family, consequently getting stuck in your younger body as well. You followed him everywhere. You wouldâve given your life for him.
So, how could he do this to you?
Forty years, thrown away all because he supposedly got stuck for seven fucking years in a stupid timeline traveling subway station with another woman.
You wanted to kill him. He knew that you didnât like how comfortable Lila was with him since the beginning and he had assured you he wasnât interested in her at all and that you were all he wanted. What a load of bullshit that was.
You had left after their explanation. You saw the way he looked at her. The exact same way he used to look at you. For him at had been years since he last saw you. For you, it had only been a few hours since he last looked at you like you were the world.
You had slipped off the wedding ring and threw it at his face before leaving. You could hear him trying to get you to stay and try to follow you but he was stopped by Diego.
You were so lost in thought before you found yourself in front of the entrance to a subway station. This must be the one they were talking about. You looked behind you, making sure no one had followed you but also as a way to look back on this life.
If they were telling the truth about the timelinesâŠthen you werenât going to be coming back to this one. Maybe there is a timeline where youâre happy. One where you and Five donât meet. Or maybe one where none of this happens. Where youâre both a normal married couple.
You took a deep breath as you gazed down the steps. Once you took your first step down, you knew there was no going back.
As you descended the steps, the eerie silence unnerved you. You could hear only your footsteps on the ground and the squeaking of the turnstile as you pushed through it.
You were startled by the sound of the speakers playing some sort of announcement. It was impossible to understand considering it was all backwards.
Soon, the subway entered the station and came to a halt. The doors opened and you stood still, you were still a little creeped out. Five always made you feel more comfortable in situations like thisâŠbut he wasnât here anymore.
You swallowed your unease and entered the subway car. You slowly took a seat and looked around before the doors closed and the subway started moving. You looked out the window as flashes of colour went by.
You were there for a couple minutes before you stopped. The doors opened but you didnât get up. You werenât sure if you wanted to get off yet. You wanted to be sure you were as far from the timeline you were just in as possible.
You felt something pull inside of you though. Something wanted you to get off and explore. So you did.
You let yourself be guided by this feeling deep inside. It was like your heart was pulling you somewhere.
It isnât long until you end up in front of a building of some kind. Could you even call it that? You never left the station and itâs the only other place in here. Is it more of a building in a building? You didnât want to think about it too much.
The words âMaxâs Delicatessenâ were shining brightly in your face. You were a little amused. Maybe you were hungry and it was actually your stomach bringing you here rather than your heart.
You sighed and decided to check it out.
But when you entered, you were horrified at what you saw.
The entire deli was full of copies of your (now ex) husband. This was the last thing you wanted to see and you internally cursed at your conscious for bringing you here.
You could feel your heartbeat pick up and your breathing become heavy as tears pricked at your eyes.
Finally, one of the Fiveâs had looked up and noticed you stuck in place at the door.
âDarling!â He shot up out of his seat, audibly hitting his knee on the table but he didnât flinch.
Suddenly, every single Five in the place had his eyes on you, each with various emotions displayed on their face.
The Five that spotted you quickly made his way over to you. He lifted his shaking hands and held them over your cheeks, too scared to make contact in case you fade away.
You could see the disbelief and love in his eyes. This snapped you out of your confusion and slapped his hands away from you and backed yourself up into the door.
The Five in front of you looked confused and hurt before sighing and lowering his hands.
âSorryâŠI forgot that youâre not the same one.â He apologized.
âWhat the FUCK is going on?â You exclaimed as you looked around to be met with all the Fiveâs still staring at you. âHow did you get here? Why are there multiples of you? Why canât you just leave me alone!â
âWoah, woah, slow down. Breathe. Youâre okay. Everythingâs fine.â The Five in front of you tried to calm you down. âYou took the subway right? This is a different timeline. Weâre all the same person from different timelines. Usually the only new people that enter here are a version of meâŠorâŠus I guess. Youâre the onlyâŠwellâŠyou, that has shown up here.â He explained.
âWhat?â You looked at him like he was crazy.
âShe should sit down.â Another Five had said.
âCome on, hun. Come sit down and we can talk.â He had reached out towards you, careful not to touch you while he guided you towards the opposite end of the booth he was previously at.
You sat down, still in shock. It felt weird being surrounded by so many Fiveâs. Especially when you were trying to get away from him.
âI guess Iâll start.â Five had sat down across from you and sighed.
âIn my timeline, you and I had been together for years. We met at the Commission. At first we hated each other but we were always put on missions together. Over timeâŠI had fallen for you, and luckily for me, you reciprocated those feelings. We were together romantically for years. We were on our last mission before our contract with the Commission ended. We were planning on getting married after and retiring somewhere nice. ButâŠit went wrongâŠand I lost you. You died in my arms.â He looked off to the side and tried to play off wiping away his tears.
âI havenât seen you in years. Youâre just as beautiful as the day I lost you.â He reached a hand across the table and gently placed it on yours.
You teared up as you saw the pure love in his eyes. Your Five used to look at you like that and it still hurt knowing he no longer felt that way.
âIf youâre hereâŠthen something mustâve happened to the Five in your timeline.â He rubbed his thumb on the back of your hand.
You stilled and took your hand back, making the Five in front of you frown.
You hugged your torso for comfort and curled in on yourself slightly as you looked down at the table.
âWe were married for forty yearsâŠbut he got stuck in the subway with Lila andâŠI guess forty years didnât mean anything because in seven years he threw it all away forâŠher.â You hiccuped as you tried to hold back your tears.
There were multiple grumbles and scoffs around the deli.
The Five across from you reached across the table and held your shoulder gaining your attention.
âEveryone here had a version of you in their timeline. We all lost you in one way or another. I think I speak for all of us when I sayâŠhaving you here is the best thing to happen to us, and heâs a complete idiot for throwing you away like that.â He smiled as he lightly caressed your cheek.
You smiled slightly at his words.
âAww thereâs that beautiful smile.â Five said as he lightly pinched your cheek.
You giggled and batted his hand away and wiped your tears away.
A sandwich and drink was placed in front of you and you looked up to another Five holding a now empty tray.
âYour favourite, just the way you like it.â He said as he gently grabbed your hand and placed a kiss on the back of it with a wink.
You blushed at the action and thanked him.
Even though you got on that train in order to get away from himâŠyou donât think youâll be getting back on any time soon.
five 'i'm the daddy here' hargreeves strikes again
okay so let me get this straight
Luther lost his wife then died as a stripper with a house that's falling apart
Diego died after just having found out his wife, who he'd been unhappy with for a long time, cheated on him with his brother
Allison died without a husband, with her career at a standstill, after not speaking to her family for years and without really fixing their relationship
Klaus died after relapsing after 3 years of sobriety, scaring his niece, without reuniting with Dave and with the additional trauma of being buried alive and sex trafficked
Five died having failed to stop the apocalypse - his only goal for the past, what, 60 years of his life - with unresolved feelings for Lila
Ben died suffering inside a huge blob that ended the world, never getting to be happy with Jennifer
Viktor died because he finally, FINALLY dared to question and oppose his father, after being unable to maintain a stable relationship with a woman for years (RIP Sissy ig)
Lila died stuck in an unhappy marriage, with conflicted feelings towards her husband AND his brother, with whom she had cheated
ok ok cool cool cool, got it.
yesss likeeee they didnât have to make him that hot but ig itâs just how Aiden looks
gonna ignore every wrong thing that happened in umbrella academy 4 cuz five looked hot doing it đđ»
deadpool and wolverine
I'd like to thank Aiden Gallagher cause sir if you weren't so beautiful I would not have been able to watch this shit
okay, but it's almost funny to see Steve Blackman blabbering about Five needing a love story, when it would have taken him all of 5 minutes and a quick scroll through his tumblr tag to realize that all Five's fans ever wanted was for him to get a genuine hug and a thank you from his siblings for saving their sorry asses again and again. it's literally all we wanted.
This is sooooo PRETTYYY
this show is the bane of my existence but idk. Fivey
Ahhhh this is soooo pretty
saw a screenshot on twitter and couldn't resist speed drawing through it
sobbing
just saw the most heartbreaking annabeth take from ep 3
#Something something about Annabeth expecting help from her mother because she was always the perfect kid but getting sent to her own death and Percy expecting nothing because he doesn't believe in his dad and despite everything being saved from death by him
ofc you think my dad or brother can, without me they would be starving
I donât even care if itâs macaroni, ramen or those little bowls you stick in the microwave. Please, I need reassurance that most of the population on tumblr WOULDNâT STARVE TO DEATH if their parents couldnât fix them food or they couldnât go out to eat.Â
I FUCKING LOVE PASTA
Being a girl is: wanting to go to bed early but deciding to just get on tumblr/wattpad/Ao3 for a little bit and then end up finding a fic series that you really like and read until well past your usual bedtime then keeping on because itâs already past your bedtime. Then being mad when you wake up in the morning because you overslept your timer.
loved thisss đ
â¶ no big deal â spencer reid x reader || pure fluff
â àŁȘ . summary : spencer is a germaphobe. you soon learned that everything has an exception.
the office buzzed with the usual morning activity as you entered, a cup of coffee in your hand. your boyfriend was already seated at his desk, completely absorbed in a file. his left hand also cradled a cup of coffee, while his right held a half-eaten chocolate donut covered in sprinkles. you walked over and stood behind him, smiling to yourself as you watched his brow furrow in deep concentration.
feeling a bit playful, you leaned over his shoulder, eyeing the donut in his hand. without thinking too much about it, you quickly leaned in and took a bite out of the donut, savouring the sweet chocolate.
the moment the taste hit your tongue, guilt quickly followed. you knew how spencer felt about certain things, especially given his germaphobia. you immediately pulled back, eyes wide with regret.
âoh my god, spence, iâm so sorry,â you blurted out, âi didnât even thinkâiâll go get you a new one right now.â
spencer paused, lowering the file and turning to look at you. you braced yourself, expecting him to be at least a little bit annoyed. but instead, he deadpanned,
âyou know, weâve exchanged worse bodily fluids than saliva,â you stared at him, face heating up.
âtouchĂ©.â
his lips twitched into a faint smile as he took another bite of the donut, deliberately from the same spot where you had. then, reaching out his hand, he brushed a sprinkle from your bottom lip before leaning in to press a soft, lingering kiss to your mouth.
âsee?â he murmured against your lips.
âno big deal.â

YES
You see, the biggest problem with this is that Five HAD a love story all along.
His love for his family has been THE very foundation of the show and what kickstarted the entire chain of events.
He spent 45 years in the apocalyptic wasteland because he loved them too much to give up.
He found them in every possible timeline.
He reversed time for them.
He became an assassin to get a shot, however small, at coming back to them.
Heâs been through countless timelines, doing his best to save and protect them in every single one of them.
No matter how dire the situation, he always pushed to find a way to save his family. His devotion was stronger than anything and there was no line he wouldnât cross for his siblings. No matter how self-destructive the cost, he sacrificed himself again and again just for a chance at reuniting with them and saving the world so they could live.
It was a destructive kind of love, yes, but also inspiring. I think it resonated with many people because love can be intense, we love and want to be loved with this kind of intensity and dedication.
So, to throw it all away for a romantic subplot that no one asked for is not only a huge disservice to Fiveâs character but also goes against everything he represents. We already knew heâs capable of love and that he loves deeply.
I donât understand how the showrunner who worked on the series for 5+ years can say that Five had to have an arc like this. It doesnât make sense. He already had a love story. Arguably, the most beautiful and deepest of them all. He didnât need more, what he needed was to have it returned and to finally settle down after multiple lifetimes of putting his life on the line to keep his loved ones safe.
To say otherwise means that the writers fundamentally misunderstood what made Five a great character and what fans loved most about the show. It feels like a betrayal, because it is one. It proves that the creators not only misunderstood the core character of the show but also never paid attention to the fandom and its preferences.
Thereâs a difference between catering to the audience and what they ended up doing, which is a character assassination at its worst. And itâs not just the character who was ruined but also the entire premise of the show, the reason why fans loved it in the first place. Thereâs no coming back from something like this.
Damn, can't believe Umbrella Academy ended at season 3 where they managed to get back to their main timeline in 2019 and now they have a chance to rebuild their lives where everything is well and fine and dandy and they managed to stop the world from ending for good đ
