I Love That Cat Took A Look At Jean (tortured 6’2 Huge Strong Bisexual Frenchman Sad Grey Eyes Elite

Uhhh invincible seasom 3 spoilers. You should really watch it. It’s so much more than a funny superhero show

I’m still so not over Rex’s death in Invincible. His entire arc over seasons 1-3 was beautiful. When we first met him in 1, I hated him. He was funny but I hated him. By Season 3, he’s a kind, mature and caring guy. Yes he still says the wrong thing sometimes, but he apologizes and it’s clear to everyone that he’s trying. He lost a hand, took a bullet to the brain, thought his teammates were dead and kept fighting.

I remember hearing somewhere that your true last words aren’t the last words your mouth makes before you die, they’re the last thing anyone who doesn’t die with you hears. The last thing Rex says to anyone who isn’t the Mark he takes down with him is for BP, Rudy, and MG to pass on a message to Rae, apologizing for not helping her finish moving in. Season 1 Rex would never help someone move in, he’d never apologize, he’d never love someone, and I don’t think he would care about the feelings of a woman, or make a sacrifice like that. But when he saw it was his time to go, the first thing on his mind was Rae.

He got wounded earlier in the fight, he checks the wound, realizes he’s not making it out and makes peace with that. He gets close to the evil Mark and digs into his gaping chest wound to touch his own bone and turn himself into a bomb. Yeah, the evil Marks aren’t as strong as our Mark, but they’re still viltrumites. Rex is one of the only mother fuckers in the show to go toe to toe with a viltrumite and defeat them. Yeah he had to kill himself to do it. I don’t care, he still did it, and he did it with love in his heart.

In the show’s larger overarching theme of tackling toxic masculinity, Mark is shown rejecting toxic masculinity again and again, but Rex is already down there. He’s a piece of shit in Season 1, but he gets better. He’s there to show the audience that they can get better, if they’re shitty. He and Mark are effectively narrative foils in that regard. Rex is a child soldier who’s a piece of shit and learns to drop his toxic masculinity. Mark is the son of a loving couple, grew up almost normal and rejects it from the start. The other Marks? The bad ones? They didn’t have as good of an upbringing. They’re our Mark if he was more like Rex.

But Rex gets better. He meets one of those bad Marks, and he fucking takes him with him. The ultimate condemnation of that evil in them both. My glorious king Rex Splode

Dont we all like our man fruity??

a kevjean edit to irish orpheus? more likely than you’d think

first ever edit, pretty fitting that it’s kevin day-related tbh

Then proceeds to say he hates Kevin

I love them both so much 🥺🥺🥺

Their interactions make me wanna hug my pillow, crawl in fetal position and just stay there forever. At the same time I wanna punch a wall, bc how could Riko and Tetsuji hurt so much those two beatifull souls and also make them hurt each other just to survive

I swear, I cant

the way jean speaks about and interacts with kevin is so… *gestures vaguely*

“he has earned the right to be arrogant” SAY IT LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK

“stupid, beautiful kevin” oh! ok i didn’t need my heart anyway

“you are supposed to be better than this” “you have always known what i am” well that’s great for you two! meanwhile i am clawing at the walls of my enclosure

“unspoken: you cannot refuse me” hit like a blow to the head tbh

Literally a whole series about second chances and yall are mad a character has fucked up and needs a second chance????

Ppl scare me honestely, like, how can you not understand it so hard that you read the whole series only to get to TGR and hate Jeremy???

tbh all these people I see who hate Jeremy because of what was revealed in tgr have a fundamental misunderstanding of not only the golden raven, but the entire message of aftg as a whole. and I'm not sorry for saying that.

Neil has a talent for making Andrew having to admit exactly what he is trying to avoid

"that doesn't mean i wouldn't blow you" is an iconic confession for a lot of reasons but i love that andrew obviously picked his wording so so carefully there to avoid admitting any feelings involved and then neil's demisexual ass just totally bypasses that and he responds saying "you like me." WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT ANDREW WAS TRYING TO AVOID ADMITTING.

Neil I-need-to-live-obscurely-so-I’m-never-ever-found-otherwise-I’ll-be-killed Josten:

*taps a microphone* “to all the mobs currently out for my life: this is my address, social security number, and schedule of all the times I’ll be home alone without protection.”

Andrew, who just promised to keep him alive:

No, they dont realize it

Because they talked about the Holocaust, but they didnt talk about how hate spreads, how authoritarians regimes come to power, how all minorities can be victims, who and what interests persecution serves

They talked about the Holocaust like if jews were the only victims, like if the only way it would happen again is if the events of the past repeated themselfs exactly as they happened in 1930s/40s

Zionists have been propagating the idea that jews are the only potential victims of a new holocaust. So there is no problem if Trump talks about immigrants the same way (with almost the same exact words) Hitler talked abt the jewish ppl. There is no problem if Israeli authorities openly claim they want to commit genocide and ethinic cleansing. There is no problem if believing a racial or ethinic group should have total control over certain territory IS the whole base of nazism. As long as the persecuted group isnt the jewish population, then it is not a Holocaust.

It is sad, but thats the reality

Talking about the Holocaust isnt enough to stop it from happening again. Knowing that Nazi germany killed 6 million jews serves no pourpuse if we are all unable to spot the signs of history repeating itself with other ethinic/racial/religious minorities

Israel is the new Nazi Germany.

Girl, Im sobbing with this one 😭😭😭

I think part of the reason I’m so obsessed with MXTX’s works is the way that each story seems to hold you gently as say “Your kindness mattered. It didn’t alleviate the suffering, it did not undo the pain. But your kindness mattered.”

Kindness could not erase Luo Binghe’s abuse, but it changed the story into a kinder one.

Kindness did not stop Wei Wuxian’s death, but it did save a-Yuan.

Kindness did not undo Xie Lian’s suffering, but it renewed his sincerity to help others.

Kindness did not change the entire world, but it helped create a softer future.

Its such a nice message, that maybe kindness will not protect you, maybe you don’t see the outcome of it, but you should still try to be kind, and I love that honestly.

Yess

Like, that "give your game to me" shit with Neil was the most non-straight interaction I have ever seen in my life

That sh*t was literally screaming homosexuality

Or him taking Jean's hands, the way he talks abt Jeremy

There is no way our diva queen of Exy is straight, I cant accept it

its truly poetry that kevin “it’s better to be straight” day only has 4 friends and both pairs of them are gay and fucking each other
