Rise Up, Oh Heart, For There is Another Battle to Win

racethewind10:

sometimes i think about how much of our mass media portrays romantic relationships as grossly unhealthy (this is like, double true for married couples on TV) because apparently the only way to write ~drama into a relationship is to have them be assholes to each other and I just get so mad like, listen, do you know how many frickin fanfic writers can stretch mutual pining and self-sacrifice and putting the other person first and small acts of caring and utterly destroy their readers and keep us hooked for 100k? but the people getting paid for this shit think that petty insults and infidelity and fighting and one person treating the other like shit is what’s going to keep us interested? 

fuck that

Contractions function almost identically to the full two-word phrase, but are only appropriate in some places in a sentence. It’s one of the weird quirks of this language we’ve.

I KNOW, RIGHT

Like “Mad Max” is essentially just a catchy franchise title, and the movies follow him because he’s a recognizable starting point. He literally tries to quit his job in the first movie. He never wants to be the protagonist. Leave him alone.

“He literally tries to quit his job in the first movie” as someone who has seen every Mad Max movie more than once, I can confirm this is true. Movie one is him realizing being the main character sucks, and every movie after that is him just being like “I don’t want to be here I don’t want to be here CAN I PLEASE LEAVE NOW.”

Which, tbh, makes him the most relatable male action movie protagonist ever.

All of Fury Road is Max basically going “I UNDERSTAND that shit is bad but I would like to LEAVE okay, like, shit, you can leave with me–ah, fuck, no, now they’re shooting at me, I JUST WANT TO GO.  All right FINE I’ll do something productive and THEN I AM LEAVING.”

FN-2187 walked into a detention cell and removed a high level prisoner by saying, “Kylo Ren sent me” and none of the guards even thought to call and verify it. He then marched that prisoner through the corridors of a Star Destroyer and into a fighter bay passed a gaggle of officers and no one batted an eye.

But go on and tell me how Finn was just a janitor.

oh but now i’ve been thinking about this!

ok 1.) finn in before the awakening is literally at the top of his class, like phasma’s only beef with this dude is that he’s got too much empathy but other than that he’s a+ officer material in logistics, combat training, marksmanship, leadership, the whole shebang. so he’s probably trusted to know his shit and do his job. so if fn-2187 says ren wants the prisoner, then ren wants the prisoner. that makes perfect sense.

now the hangar tho, here me out: finn using the force. unconsciously, but we know jedi can pass unseen when they want/need to, and he’s so desperate to not get caught he’s probably thinking okay stay calm stay calm nothing to see here just a trooper trasnporting a prisoner nothing unusual here and it WORKS.
