Poe’s arc is one of evolving from a heroic soldier to a seasoned leader, to see beyond the single-mindedness of winning the battle to the larger picture of the future of the galaxy. I think Leia knows she won’t be around forever and she, with tough love, wants to push Poe to be more than the badass pilot, to temper his heroic impulses with wisdom and clarity. - Oscar Isaac.
Take those breaks please!!!
“This isn’t about beating him [Ultron], it’s about whether he’s right.” (About the Avengers being a threat to the world.)
Okay so tbh I don’t often rewatch the Avengers movies, but holy SHIT does Steve Rogers make my heart ache.
In the middle of all the shit that’s going down for him (and the world) in AoU, he does not for one SECOND forget that fighting isn’t about winning. It’s about correcting what was wrong before the fight and making things better after the fight. (If they win by putting people in danger and putting more evil into the world, then Ultron is right. And they haven’t won at all.)
THAT is Steven fucking Rogers. THAT’S the skinny kid who wouldn’t stand down. THAT’S why he’s not a perfect soldier (because a perfect soldier wins no matter what), but a good man (because a good man can see and remember what’s really important).
(Plus: that’s why he gives Tony the phone at the end of Civil War. Why he always cares about the civilians. Why he stands up against Thanos alone.)
(It’s not about winning, it’s about fixing what was broken. To Steve Rogers, breaking more things in order to win is losing.)
(And also why he wouldn’t fucking DO THAT at the end of Endgame.)

Being taken care of is literally my biggest kink. Being doted on, cuddled whenever i need, held, and reassured. Being checked on and made sure im okay. Literally just take care of me and i will be jello in your hands
What I’d give for one of the Cinderella remakes to go into how when you’re in an isolated and abusive situation, sometimes you need to be saved and you’re not weak if you can’t escape by yourself
I’ve never been a fan of bad faith reinterpretations of fairy tales, especially ones which flatten the originals into “princesses is saved by a prince and nothing else”, to then go #girlboss. The princess can save herself because she’s a strong female character! (Implying if you’re in a bad situation, it’s because you’re not strong enough to get out)
