Cyclone Babysits For The First Time

✨cyclone babysits for the first time✨

iceman: alright, there we go... *sets maverick down next to him* i'll pick him back up at seven, *takes out his checklist and hands it over* make sure he gets food and water every other hour, keep the jets away unless i permitted it...

cyclone: but sir-

iceman: let me finish-... so keep the jets in the hangar and, hm, maybe lock it... he can do a hop or two unless you want him to get more cranky than usual, shove him into his office twice a day and he'll get the paperwork done... shut the door though, or he will escape

cyclone, under his breath: whAt

iceman, pecking mav on the lips and ruffling his hair: i gotta go honey, love you! *death glaring at cyclone* one scratch on him and you're done.

cyclone, sweating profusely and watching the admiral saunter out the door: y-yes sir?

meanwhile maverick has already disappeared to the hangar, 11 little duckling daggers right on his tail

val you precious human being:'-)♡

oh my heart, this has to be one of my favorite "ausländer" kisses by FAR

get you someone who looks at you like richard looked at paul...

You have no idea of how many times I have watched this

and olli looks like he's trying to summon a deity for help😌 lol

I love how everyone is struggling....

And then there is Richard, in his diva mood, perfect hair ...

And speaking of hair... Paul's looks so good 🤩

ah, don't mind me, just sobbing over here...

representation matters so so so very much♡♡♡

ES POR ESTO QUE LA REPRESENTACIÓN ES IMPORTANTE

THIS IS WHY REPRESENTATION MATTERS

[trans]

Interviewer: Your speech and your mission have always been worthy representation and respect above all. Especially about equal opportunities for the "moreno" (brown) people, for racialised people, not only from Mexico but from all of Latin America, from all over the world. And now you're here. You're K'uk'ulkaan, you're Namor, you're a Funko (toy). You're all that.

Tenoch: Ah, huevo! (kinda like "oh, god" / "oh, yeah", happily)

Interviewer: So, what do you think it'll mean for representation in Latin America and Mexico, for all of us who are getting this important message?

Tenoch: The only thing I want is that the next time boys and girls look at themselves in the mirror they feel proud of that reflection. That they see there was never anything wrong with them but rather with the eyes that judged them. If that happens, I've made it.

Interviewer: Thank you so much.

(They hug. The interviewer's been rather emotional the whole time but now they start to really cry.)

Tenoch: It hurts, dude, doesn't it? But we're going to begin healing. (He gives the interviewer a kiss on the forehead)
