Wesley Crusher Sweater Appreciation

Wesley Crusher sweater appreciation

Love villains/antagonists who's backstory isn't used to redeem their actions but add context and nuance.

Characters who suffered and bled and worked to be strong, who were pushed back and fought against and beat for daring to dream higher than their station but reached up with bloodied hands and took it anyways.

Love characters who should never have been put into positions of power, not because they didn't deserve them, but because they were so deeply traumatised by their past that being put in these positions twists them so irredeemably that they can't come back from it.

People who clawed their way up from the muck and placed themselves on pedestals, not because they should, but because they could.

Who started out the lowest of the low and made something if themselves but had to change from the hero of their own story to the villain of someone else's.

Someone who, from someone else's perspective, is a two dimensional, evil person but from an outside perspective was a self fulfilling prophecy.

Someone who was put down by the kind of person they bled to become, who looked at those better off than them and was jealous and became the kind of person they would have despised as a child.

Villains who are evil, who's actions can't be forgiven, who doesn't even want to be forgiven, who killed the part of themselves that would deserve forgiveness.

Who's backstory tells you exactly why they are like this, that strips them of their apathy and hate and exposes every sensitive nerve they have and says, 'This child, this poor beaten child, this is who hurt so many, this is who died to give you your villain, who had to kill every good part of themselves to make your antagonist.'

Who, by all rights, could have been our hero, is a reflection of the hero in all ways that matter, but were corrupted by their experience rather than strengthened by them.

I kinda understand white people in horror movies now.

If I was given an offer for a house in good condition, in a nice neighbourhood with a front and back garden that was cheap and the only downside was a haunting?

I would have my wallet out before I was even told about the dead people.

I would put up with anything as long as it didn't cost me an arm and a leg to buy it.

Just finished Pokémon Scarlet.

Gotta admit, Rika Pokémon is the best character ever and Hassel is my new comfort character.

Stupid little lizard dog is wholesome.

Can someone please just give my man his brother back?

He's had a tough time recently and he really needs it, some fucking blond dragged him to the past and God's been avoiding him and he has no memories.

Hannibal au where nothing hurts and Hannigram is canon and they still refer to each other as 'Dr. Lecter' and 'My Dear Will/Boy'.

Someone, probably Bev, teases Will about refering to his boyfriend as Dr. so Will convinces Hannibal to get worse.

Suddenly Hannibal is 'Count Hannibal Lecter VIII, last of his line, of the Lecter estate' or something and Will is 'My love, my life and my reason for waking' or some variation of different pet names in every language Hannibal knows until someone, probably Jack, has enough and starts shouting about it and how disgustingly sappy they are.

Bonus if Will acts all formal and Hannibal does nothing but aggressively swoon at Will when he looks at him.

Just petty Will.
