no but now that the brainrots back i need to talk abt the holiday special cause it gave me SO MUCH good content. pete and kraglin being confirmed siblings !! peter teaching kraglin about christmas and kraglin genuinely being into it !!! him maybe not totally understanding the reasoning behind it but helping pete gather materials to make a tree regardless !! them working together to make little gifts for yondu and the rest of the crew !! then him getting scolded for being “soft” and being told he should know better and you can literally see the foundation being built!!!! decades of learning to keep his mouth shut, not talk back, internalize shit and move on…. until it explode out of him at the most inopportune time :)

canon connections i am interested in exploring further!

kraglin + rocket: kraglin was there during the whole “i know you because you’re me” scene with yondu. did they ever talk about it after yondu’s funeral? or did they just give each other a knowing nod and decide to ignore it ever happened? as far as i’m concerned, kraglin did survive the snap, so i’d also love to explore how their friendship could have grown during those 5 years + their new dynamic with rocket as captain of the guardians team 2.0.

kraglin + nebula: did they ever discuss her level of involvement in the mutiny? like, during the early days post-vol 2 when kraglin can’t help but wonder had she not incapacitated yondu, would things have gotten as bad as they did? would his friends still be alive otherwise? how did they move past that? i’d like to build upon their relationship during the snap years, same as rocket, but i’d also love to expand upon the way they are a direct parallel to peter/gamora, both viewed as second best to their respective fathers + how they differ in coping.

in a weird turn of events, the fallout brainrot i've been living with for the past week has somehow transitioned back into kraglin muse so.... hi :3

kraglin calling cosmo a bad dog and not feeling an ounce of remorse over it no matter how much she complains, even doubling down when she drags other people into it……. that’s peak older brother content ty

post-peter acquisition, whenever the ravagers wanted to fuck off to contraxia to have fun and get laid etc but nobody wanted to stay behind to watch the 8 year old menace they’re now in charge of, do you think they ever just

i know kraglin in the comics isn’t the same as mcu kraglin ( since james gunn basically just took the name of a random one-off character and gave it to our boy ) but goddamn….. these panels from the yondu solo are fucking me up 🥺

kraglin being mistaken for a terran by other terrans until something happens and he ends up bleeding in front of them and the absolute betrayal they’d feel when his blood is blue and inky and definitely NOT what they expected is. v good i think.

i like that kraglin got his own shoutout in peter’s criminal record. like it obviously states the ravagers because they’re a dangerous faction and yondu has his name because he’s the captain of a clan, but kraglin’s name is right there next to yondu’s as someone important to look out for. he’s not just lumped in with the other ravagers. he’s a lil infamous all on his own and i’m so proud 🥰

best kraglin look is always gonna be vol 1….. the mohawk, the eyebags, the shit eating grin when he welcomes peter back onto the ship……. my bastard king

since krag was left out of endgame/IW entirely, i’m actually really interested in developing his life during the 5 year gap! i’ve defaulted to him returning to stakar’s crew to explain his absence in canon but like. i refuse to believe he wouldn’t have routinely checked back in with rocket and nebs considering they’re his last link to anything familiar. i just think it’d be fun and an easy way to develop his relationships with more earthbound muses so uh. if that sounds like smth you’d be interested in, lmk!

i recently read a fic that explained kraglin’s absence during iw/endgame by saying he’d returned to xandar to help rebuild after thanos annihilated them and honestly….. that’s kinda cute

has what is potentially one of the most op weapons in the mcu attached to his brain….. still goes to war with a handgun

i’m so mad abt this i am currently seeing shrimp colors. THIS is the ideal kraglin!!!!! him fighting alongside his family and ALSO having a big ass gun this is the epitome of a ravager dude this is PEAK DESIGN
