You Can Love A Character & Still Admit When They're Wrong. I Love Sansa Stark But I Acknowledge Her Flaws

you can love a character & still admit when they're wrong. i love sansa stark but i acknowledge her flaws (none shes perfect) & can hold her accountable for her wrong doings (shes never done anything wrong in her life) & call her out on her actions (which are always right)

RENTER WITH MY OBSESSION WITH KASTLE

one day your voice will stop sounding like my favorite song. and maybe then i’ll be able to write something other than my undying love for you.

I think a part of me has always known that you weren't the villain of my story.

As I'm rewatching Marvel's Daredevil and The Punisher, I think we all need to take a sec to appreciate Karen Page's storyline.

Secondary female characters in the MCU are almost always reduced to being love interests and/or badass helpers for the male lead (Claire in Daredevil and Luke Cage, Colleen in Iron Fist, Dinah in The Punisher, Misty in Luke Cage, Elektra in Daredevil). As much as I appreciate all of these female characters, Karen's storyline stands out thanks to its evolution. Yes, she starts off as a victim and becomes Daredevil's (and even the Punisher's) love interest, but those are parallel to the storyline that is given to her exclusively: from working as an accountant whistleblowing against her company, to legal assistant taking down Fisk, to journalist setting the record straight on the Punisher, to looking the freaking Kingpin in the eyes and telling him she killed his best friend. The most striking thing to me is that she isn't a cop (Dinah/Misty) or a fighter (Colleen/Elektra) or even in a position to provide care (Claire). She can't punch her way out or heal wounds. All she can do is dig for the truth and live with her demons and acknowledge that she has as much in common with someone like Frank Castle as she does with Matt Murdock.

My girl Karen deserves some serious appreciation for being the only secondary female character in the (Netflix?) MCU who changed careers twice and still kicked ass in all of them.
