the brotherhood of mutants just had to accept they never going to win bc magneto is in love w their #1 enemy. prof x really cruising around in a metal wheelchair and the mutant w the ability to control metal and be like “oh well nothing we can do about him”

i feel like this is relevant to a lot of ships

i love that neil spends majority of aftg being like omg they cannot find out that there is something wrong with me i have to be normal. and everyone who interacts with him is like Bro what the fuck is wrong with you

Medicated Andrew from the upperclassmen’s perspective

deleting my dating apps because I want to meet someone the old fashioned way (I'm running and you hit me in the gut with a racket, narratively setting yourself up as the person who helps me stop running from my past)

they are perfectly normal

neil josten is so real, because he tried to be mysterious and quiet for all five minutes before he gave up and started mouthing off to everyone

Neil Josten moodboard

I love the aftg main trio because it’s like the butcher of Baltimore’s son who has managed to make it out alive, an actual fucking guard dog in human form, and national sensation exy star Kevin day. It has real “I am here for yakuza negotiations. I have brought my body guard boyfriend, and also celebrity Kevin day is here. He wouldn’t stop crying when we tried to leave.”

andrew minyard character of all time. he's toxic. he doesn't talk to cops. he has an identical twin brother and they hate each other. he made his identical twin brother promise not to have any other friends and then doesn't even talk to him. he might be a misogynist. his only friends are a born-again lesbian who can beat him up, the runaway son of a yakuza-affiliated serial killer, and his therapist. he's a student athlete. he hates sports. he killed his mother. he's a Mean Girl who runs his friend group like a cult. he's a crim major for the bit. he has an eidetic memory. he's petty. he likes to get people gifts. he does coke sometimes but says it doesn't have any effect on him because he has too many mental illnesses. he's the love interest. he doesn't smile. he was right about wwiii. y2k goth. repeatedly risks his life to help people in situations that have absolutely nothing to do with him and says it's out of boredom. when they picked him up from the psych ward he got in the driver's seat and blasted screamo the whole ride back and didn't say a single word to anyone. oh my god he is exactly five feet tall. he's even gay

"Tell me something awful like you are a poet trapped inside the body of a finance guy" is about HIM

Kevin: I want to study history. Oh, and I want that blond goalkeeper

Riko:

350 pages worth of soul destroying jean content and the fandom is instead choosing to focus on andrew's cheese drawer. love it

i know we all know neil’s narration is insanely unreliable but leaving out the part when he takes jean to fox tower before the final game is Up There in the top 5 crazy things he’s failed to mention. like brother… jean freaks out and loses his fucking mind over kevin’s queen tattoo and u don’t think that’s worth even a passing mention????? be real

zuko screaming at aang about his notebook really gave “you stole my dream journal” vibes and i honestly love that characterisation for zuko

he WOULD be asking mr electric to send him to the principals office to have him expelled like no notes perfect

excuse the tear stains on my keyboard through writing this but the flashback to irohs sons funeral where zuko comforts iroh and LEAVES FROM THE VINE PLAYS IN THE BACKGROUND has me literally sobbing
