That’s What I’ve Been Screaming

he just wanted to be involved in the conversation

he just wanted to understand

Ford horrific misunderstanding

Pls don't tag this as stancest, I will fucking cry

people who initiate conversations youre everything and i’m in love with you

idk, chris sonnenburg. if you didn’t want your character to be adored by the fans, maybe don’t make him such a little goob.

look at ‘im.

also, maybe don’t make him one of the most compassionate people in the show who only wanted to make positive change for the people he cherished— *i am dragged off of my soapbox*

heck yeah!! science!!! also “what. why” to the racism. (how do you even mock somebody for sending something to space. i feel like that just. isn’t something you can mock.)

Hey remember when US and Russia was all like “We’re the best!!! We’ve won the space race!!!!” But India sent a kick-ass space probe to Mars and the whole mission was fuel efficient, costed less and a roaring success in the first try and then they were like “…..wait no that can’t be true” and still have the audacity to call us “underdeveloped” or only view us as a ‘third world country’? :)

For anyone who needs more info, the probe was called Mangalyaan (which literally means space probe vehicle) or Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM) and you can also get more information here and here

go on

Do you guys think that Hugo is actually blonde but light blonde is just not his natural shade? That he made his hair lighter to— …Nevermind.

evil lesbian time

-she has used her braid to strangle a man before. this was in front of hugo, but he was ten years old, so he was practically an adult. it’s fine.

-she used to be very protective about her lab journals, but ulla started doodling around her notes and donella gradually warmed up to it. (then they started to drift apart, and ulla began her own journal that she never let donella see, and donella was left to trace the loops of ulla’s handwriting even before ulla was gone.)

-she usually made it a policy not to hire child soldiers, but hugo was the best thief she’d ever seen. she tested him & his instincts for a while before deciding to raise him herself.

-on that note, she does love hugo in a way, but donella’s mind is very priority-organized, and hugo ranks low on that list.

-she prefers mechanical weapons to chemical ones. her dagger is her go-to in a 1v1 fight, though.

-slightly civil to quirin. slightly. a long time ago.

-very defensive, even with those she half-trusts. they have to be out to get her, otherwise, why would they be saying this?

-constant, well-hidden paranoia. she’s climbed so far but her position is so precarious.

-she was raised in a very unstable home that she left as soon as she could. either she was an orphan or she was brought up by someone who parented her like she parents hugo.

-she only got truly, unconditionally attached to someone once, and that woman disappeared for almost two decades. ulla was always going to disappear, and donella was always going to be left.

VERY TRUE. and she does genuinely care about people So Much, but she has this really interesting mindset about everyone. It’s not black-and-white, necessarily, but once she perceives that someone has betrayed her (cough cough Gothel), she distances herself from them. She puts a wall up. Please ignore season 3.

That actually makes her response to Varian stealing the sundrop flower very realistic for her (especially since he said a very triggering “I used you.”)

Before that, during the months after the storm, I headcanon that along with the decision-making paralysis she was facing, she had to deal with taking care of her recovering parents and handling a lot of inter-kingdom negotiations. Those things were important and for the good of the many, and she could convince herself to put the guilt out of her mind until she received the note from Varian.

I dunno. It just seems like a good explanation that still gives Rapunzel some culpability instead of never addressing that situation at all.

just for clarification:

disliking parts of the way rapunzel’s character was handled in the show =/= disliking her.

movie!rapunzel means a lot to me personally, and i absolutely adore some aspects of her character in the show. i think she’s loving, creative, funny, intelligent, and she tries her best to help the people around her.

if i have a critique with her in the show, it’s because i believe that isn’t how she’d behave as someone who went through the events of the movie. or maybe i look at how she acts for one episode of the show, compare it to the foundation they’ve established in an earlier episode, and find that they contrast one another. my criticisms are for the inconsistent or out-of-character writing, not for rapunzel herself. i understand she has flaws; i just wish they were addressed properly and that she didn’t always have to be in the right.

you’re welcome to reblog this if you feel the same way.
