Kimiko - Tumblr Posts
Oh god it's true, it's so so true. That moment of Gambit saying 'Gambit never tell anyone this before...Gambit loves you' was emblazoned in my mind for all eternity ❤️
I keep seeing parallels between Frenchie and Gambit, and between Kimchie and Romy even, and I've realised my brain will just subconsciously seek out the most Gambit/Rogue-coded characters available over and over 😄 (though those four are by far my favourite examples!)
tis true
The Mon Coeur-to-Mon Coeur pipeline got me really really good 😄
Fuck, what I wouldn’t give to be the filling in their sandwich…
She loves a good scissor stab 😎
Kimiko blasting Maniac and doing the Flashdance routine. Yass Queen!! Go attack those guards to protect your dysfunctional family.
I've ended up with a lot of love for S4 and have accepted the rough ride they put Kimchie through for much of it. But it was truly pretty jarring to go from three seasons of Frenchie - extremely adorably - moving heaven and earth to even be able to communicate with Kimiko to suddenly having him be the one not talking to her.
That time when he still calls her Mon Coeur but doesn't say it with the tenderest tone you've heard in your life was like a direct slap on my own little heart 😄

This is another reason I love Kimchie and why it feels so representative of my experiences where the attraction always starts in friendship, or basically grows because of friendship. He clearly does love her from first sight technically of course but not in some dramatic romantic way, in this very different and much more interesting way where he just recognises a kindred spirit.
And then we see them hang out watching tv, baking together, doing so many paired up missions just enjoying each other's company. The only time he ever annoys her or frustrates her is when he excludes her because of his shame. Otherwise, sure they get frustrated trying to save each other from stuff (mainly doing hits of different kinds!) but we never see them irritate each other, or actually try to control each other.
They are just so happy to be around each other and eventually let themselves act on something more. It's so, so much more believable and rewarding and sweet 😊
I really like fictional couples that actually enjoy spending time with each other. It seems like such a simple, mundane thing. But, often, I see fictional couples who are completely enamored and dramatic and willing to die for each other, which is fine. But like… do they enjoy hanging out? Do they have private jokes and would they be friends even if they weren’t in love? It feels like such a basic thing, but it’s something that I actually don’t see that often. And it feels so refreshing and honest compared to these over-dramatic romeo and juliet-esque romances. Just two people who become good friends and because they enjoy each other’s presence so much it grows into a strong attraction. It feels more real and tangible than two attractive people meeting and “falling in love at first sight” - like, of course, you fell in love at first sight! You’re both supermodels! Sorry, can’t relate.
I really love that quote. Sometimes you gotta save someone to *save* them, so that might be right when they deserve it least.
“We save everyone. Even if they don’t deserve it. Especially if they don’t deserve it.” ➤ The Boys || 3.08 - The Instant White-Hot Wild
Love this little scene. Also Erin looks so pretty here with that side parting.

My lil heart 🥰
Non... mon petit coeur 🥰🥰

This was so heart-wrenching, that quiet instant panic and confusion the first time, then her silent single tear when she keeps trying and he keeps refusing 😔
Even just the sheer fact that they must have barely gone a day not seeing each other since she was rescued would have made this so hard for her. That's multiple years where she went from being terrified and alone to having someone who adores her around every day.
Good for angsty-ness and for making these two actually admit how they really feel about each other; bad for my sensitive little heart that wants everyone happy 😄
the shots of kimiko silently agonizing to see her soulmate, her home, her safe space, her comfort zone, her love again...
oh the angst
I read and write sooooo much that it is hard to shock me. Harder still to surprise me with plot. The Boys has done both lol. It is such a wild, insane ride!! So glad I decided to watch it. ***Definitely not for anyone easily triggered***
I need someone like Tomer in my life…
