Staring reeeaaallly hard at that one letterboxd comment on Thor 4 that says the first marvel gay kiss will be between star lord and thor not just because it won't but because the first marvel gay kiss already happened in Eternals between Phastos and his husband Ben but because the ship didn't involve a single white skinny male it received the bare bones of attention in this hell fandom

BITCH, WHAT?! - An Eternals STEM Trio Drabble
Tumblr media
Pairings: Platonic!Phastos x Hectate!Eternal Reader, Phastos & Kaetlyn, Phastos x Ben, Kaet x Druig (Druig doesn't appear, but he is mentioned), mention of Ikaris x Sephia Words: ~1.0 k Summary: A lil' drabble that tells how Phastos found out about one wonderfully incredible flower goddess banging it out with one blue flying man with stupid hair. Warning: Nudity (but not sexual), Kaetlyn has ZERO shame, Phastos needs some aspirin from dealing with his crazyass magic shadow sister, unbetaed we die like Ajak (sorry Ajak) Notes: This drabble was inspired by a scene in Grey's Anatomy, if you know you know. Please reblog and like and comment! Shoutout to @ethereal-athalia & @valeskafics for being the most supportive people on this platform!
Tumblr media
Phastos was a pacifist. He was a ‘thinker,’ not a ‘fighter.’ If there was a way to resolve a conflict peacefully with no potential loss of blood or bodily fluid, then he would take it. His inventions may have martial uses, but he remained steadfast in using his mind for peace and not violence. He lived this way for 7,000 years on Earth, and he would like it very much to keep it that way.
But lord-y lord, was he sorely tempted to break that right now.
“How could she not tell me?” you asked incredulously. “I mean, how could she not tell me?”
“Get out.” he told you.
Out of every one of his old family, Phastos was definitely not one to be ashamed to admit that he played favorites, and there was most definitely a ranking system. He wasn’t so petty to reveal who were at the bottom Sprite, but he knew it was obvious who were his favorites. Out of the remaining eleven members, he adored you and Sephia above everyone else. His love for the two of you reached to the point he considered the both you to be his sisters, and his respect went so far as to hold you two to a higher esteem than he held Ajak.
“I mean seriously, ME? What the fuck?”
“Please, get out.” he repeated in hopes that you would listen.
And of course, you didn’t.
Normally Phastos would more than happy with you visiting. After all, you and Sephia were the only ones that Phastos really trusted to be around his family so that his son could have a chance of a normal childhood without ‘excessive’ trauma. Jack adored his Aunties ‘Sophia’ and ‘Katie,’ and you both loved him. And while he would never admit it, he truly appreciated how either you or Sephie would happily take Jack off his dads’ hands so that they could spend some quality time together after he and Ben brough Jack home from the hospital.
But he would really appreciate it if you hadn’t just magicked yourself into his living room before barging yourself in the bathroom with him while he was showering so that he could prepare for an important interview with the magnet school Jack’s currently being waitlisted on. He’d appreciate even more if you picked up the very subtle hints that he’s been dropping while you were currently pacing on the other side of the shower curtain.
“He’s lying,” you went off, “he’s a lying liar – that’s it, that has to be it. I would know if my soul sister was in a relationship with someone.”
“Get out.” Maybe if he repeated it enough with gradual emphasis, it might actually sink into her head.
“I’m actually being gaslighted-” a cold blast of air hit his back as you pulled the curtain to one side – “Phastos this is criminal-”
Immediately pulling back the curtains to retain some sense of his dignity, Phastos decided that enough was enough. “Get out!”
Taken back, you asked: “What’s your problem?”
“What’s my problem- Kaety, I am in the shower. I am wet and n a k e d.” Phastos stressed the last word to point out the very glaring fact that he was wet and not wearing any clothes.
“Okay, and? I’ve seen it all before, no big deal! I’m in the middle of a crisis here!”
Did you really fail to see how fucking weird this situation was?
Feeling a migraine coming in, he needed to get you out so he could finish his shower in peace for five goddamn minutes. Looking you in the eyes, Phastos did his best to give you his best “I’m Pissed” stare.
Letting out a sigh, he thought that maybe you finally took the hint and would leave.
“Alright, fine,” you reasoned out, “your junk is…spectacular, really great. 10 out of 10, would bang you if you were straight and I wasn’t already madly obsessed with Druig’s nether regions. Ben is truly a lucky man…can we get back to me now?”
“…”
“Why are you making that face?” you groaned in distress.
“Kaety, I know I said that my door would always been open for you. But I have a very important interview with that magnet school for Jack, alright? Me and Ben have been prepping for this afternoon for over 3 months. I am sleep-deprived, I need to shower, and I need to be focused. Whatever you’re going through, go to Sephie, okay?”
“…It’s Ben and I.”
“Why are you here anyway? And where are the girls? Did you just leave them at the compound?”
“What? No, the girls are downstairs playing with Jack. Druig and Ben are watching over them.”
“Oh my god- Druig’s here too?”
“Well, what was I supposed to do? Leave my kids without telling the love of my life? Phastos, what kind of mother and wife do you think I am?”
“…Just get out.”
You were just about to leave when you finally registered what he said earlier - and you immediately turned back.
“HOLD UP!” you shouted as pulled the curtain again as Phastos pulled it back, “You mean to tell me that you haven’t been listening to me this ENTIRE TIME?”
“No, I haven’t! And I don’t particularly care about it right now!” he shouted whilst standing under the shower head to finally finish washing himself. “Just tell me later! When I am NOT NAKED!”
Still determined to get a proper reaction, you made sure to project very loudly. “SO, it wouldn’t interest you to know that I caught Ikaris and Sephie HAVING SEX?!”
“WHAT?!” This time, Phastos was the one to pull the curtains back. “NO! Wait- that’s- that’s- NO! Why would- NO!”
“Thank you.” you calmly stated before pulling his curtain between you two once more as you finally exited the bathroom- leaving your Inventor brother to stand under the streaming water in a state of extreme shock at the most horrific news he’s received since Thanos’ Snap.

Everyday i discover people who haven't watched Eternals, simply because it was bombed with negative reviews even before its release.
And everyday i feel sorry for all these people who are missing out on:
the magic that is created by Druig and Makkari's playful yet ages old romance, expressed in just 4 words: “My beautiful, beautiful Makkari”
the platonic/romantic/queer platonic bond between Thena (mentally ill) and Gilgamesh (big guy who's a softie)
the cool, rich, south asian superstar n diva Kingo, plus his amazing and thoughtful valet Karun n his arsenal of cameras
the most beautiful display of romance & domesticity between Phastos (a gay black man) and his husband Ben (a gay arab man), and their adorable little son
the conflict and struggles of both Ikaris & Sersi in choosing their paths or their love for each other
the frustrations of Sprite as the only differently built of them and also their chaotic nature
the motherly, loving and kind yet composed and respected leader Ajak
the funny yet easily accepting Dane Whitman
.
.
like i feel sorry so many are mindless sheep who run with the hate bandwagon without even trying something on their own to actually see if its good or bad.
Anyways, Eternals was amazing and i hope they return soon. And much love to all the fans here ♥

I saw a review for Thor Love and Thunder that said even though the movie isn’t overtly queer there were more queer moments sprinkled through this movie than any movie they’ve seen as a rebuttal to the criticism that this movie specifically pitched as “really gay” isn’t actually all that gay.
Even if we stick to just the MCU-this is verifiably false.
Eternals came out just this year and is actually gay. But for some reason that movie doesn’t count?
Tumblr media
This movie features whole scenes of a Black man who is a main character in a committed relationship with an Arab man. Where they’re happy together and raising a child. Having all the same conversations as any couple. Doing all the same things as their heterosexual counterparts like kissing, talking about the necessity of saving the world, saying I love you. Both Phastos and Ben are undeniably queer characters, not coded, not subtly to avoid irritating homophobes-they’re just gay. Its a huge part of their character with out being the only part of their character.
Thor Love and Thunder was a fine movie but it underdelivered on a promise to queer fans in my opinion. Korg and Valkyrie are great, but I’m lying if I say I wasn’t expecting more from a movie that kept heralding itself as the “gayest MCU movie ever” than a kiss on the hand, a reference to a dead girlfriend I don’t think was previously established, a reference to having two dads, and a quick Voltron esq end scene of two male characters that forced me to ask if its queer representation if the alien species only has men to mate with.
Taika has done great thinks for queer media rep in the past but to me his work on Love and Thunder doesn’t hold a candle to Chloé Zhao and team on the Eternals. Give her her flowers.

I love it when Marvel does the
“Man I hate humans”
“Alright this human is okay”
“Okay I love him”
“Okay we have a child now”
“Okay they are the most important people in my life now”

I’m not gonna sit here and praise Marvel for representation because they have a very long ways to go and also I don’t care if you hate Eternals or not but I will remind you that we have seen an on screen gay kiss and I want y’all to stop doing Phastos and Ben dirty and give them that little bit of recognition.
That will be all.

Eternals STEM TRIO: Chaotic Siblings from Infinity to Beyond Part 1 of ???
Tumblr media
Pairing(s): platonic!Phastos x Persephone!Eternal (Sephia) x Hecate!Eternal (Kaetlyn); Phastos x Ben; Ikaris x Persephone!Eternal (Sephia); Druig x Hecate!Eternal (Kaetlyn) Word Count: 2.1 k Disclaimer: I do not own Marvel, Marvel Cinematic Universe, or Eternals; I only own the two characters I made up and their offsprings. Author's Note: A big shout-out to my girl @ethereal-athalia for indulging my madness! I couldn't come up with half of these ideas without you, and answering all of my manic ideas and questions Warning(s): neurodivergent characters being neurodivergent, Ikaris being an idiot, Druig being a simp for his wife, Kaetlyn being her own damn warning, Phastos being tired, discussion of sexuality and the journey of identifying, Kaet & Sephia having offspring (eventually), some sexual themes (but most crack), profanity
Before Tenochtitlan
Phastos along with our girls make up the ultimate STEM dream team that could literally achieve anything.
Phastos is physics, technology, astronomy, mathematics, architecture, and engineering; Kaet is magic, medicine, biochemistry, healthcare, and anatomy & physiology; Sephia is agriculture, zoology, biology, chemistry, food science, and environmental sciences
But whenever Phastos gets stuck on a math problem, the first person he’ll go to would be Sephia
Oh yeah, this pink flower goddess is huge math nerd. Her mind is wired a bit differently from others, and numbers just make sense to her.
And while sometimes her short attention span will get the best of her, when she is in the zone, she is in the ZONE
One time she and Phastos were stuck on a math theorem during the Renaissance, and didn’t sleep for about a week straight.
Kaet ended up using her shadows to swaddle them straight jacket style for them to sleep, literally to only wake up 3 hours later with Sephia poking her cheek to wake her up to tell her that they proved it.
But Kaet is also the biggest hypocrite because she will research and dissect organisms for days on end with Phastos too.
These three invented the term “insomnia.”
Phastos does typically have a healthy sleeping schedule unless he is really focused, Sephia is the same in a slightly more extreme manner, but Kaet will deliberately not sleep until she has found her answer or satisfied with her work.
 Everyone wants her to sleep, and her reply will probably be something along the lines of “can’t die, won’t sleep, suck my magic dick.”
The only one that can really manage to get her to sleep at times is Druig, and that’s during the times he has to physically pry the tools out of her hands and strip her down and wrangle her into a shower before forcing her to cuddle with him to sleep
He’ll also make sure to sneak in some sexy times with her in the shower for good measure
Honestly, Kaet lowkey really loves the attention and will purposely stay up to late just to rile Druig up
Listen, she can't help it if all that pent up energy transitions to mind-blowing sex
But she also wants to find out the physical limits of her own bodily functions by staying awake as long as possible, and to see if she’ll eventually hallucinate.
"I want to see if this rib cage can turn into a xylophone"
Once it got so bad that Sephia made a sleeping powder of dried gardenias and valerian to blow in Kaet’s face. She immediately conked out, and sleep for a solid week.
When Ajak confronted Sephia, her only response was so fucking chaotic and unhinged.
“Oh, don’t worry, Kaety’s not poisoned. She’s just drugged.”
And everyone just stared at her while Sephia was smiling like there was nothing wrong in the world.
On the plus side, she monitored Kaet’s vitals and functions in her coma and was able to get some really great data on the benefits of those plants used for anti-anxiety and insomnia medication
This launched an era of the two gals cultivating and drying various plants to be used as medicine for various ailments and even pain relievers
They definitely used the other Eternals to test the drugs (mostly Ikaris) and some of the side effects were…interesting to say the least
One-time, Ikaris was so high off this preliminary version of anesthesia from poppy seeds that he might have gone on a 3-hour spiel about how Sephia’s hair was so super pretty, and how it smelled so nice, and how it looked so soft, and how he would cut his own ear if it meant he could see her boobs and cu-
Don’t worry the drugs kicked in again before he could finish (in more ways than one lol)
Speaking of Ikaris, while Kaetlyn is the most protective over she sweet Sephia, Phastos is a VERY close second
This inventor man does not believe for a second that this puffed-up chested man with his dumb quaffed hair is good enough for Sephia
Sephia would be the only Eternal who is genuinely interested and fascinated by Phastos' ideas and inventions, and will ask very good questions
And he's beyond grateful for her
On another note, just imagine the dread that overtook Phastos when Ajak basically assigned him on Kaet & Sephia watch duty.
Poor man just wanted Arishem to send him to another planet right then and there.
So…when Phastos learned that Ajak died, he was extremely sad…but mostly terrified because this meant only one thing now
HE had to be the mother figure of both Kaetlyn and Sephia
Throwback to the image at the top is literally all you need to know about the dynamic between this man and the two gals he’s in between
Fun fact about Sephia: sometimes she will be really quiet, and her mind will be like a million miles away, and then she will think of the most random stuff and start giggling like crazy
Phastos actually thought she was possessed by a demon and wanted Kaet to perform an exorcism…only to remember that Kaetlyn is even crazier
Phastos has seen Kaet do the Naruto run before it was even a thing at the most random times and always with the most chaotic crackling laughter the world has ever known
Kaet has purposely summoned and captured the weirdest monsters and ghosts FOR THE SOLE PURPOSE of freaking out Phastos
Migraines have become a good portion of this man’s daily lifestyle
But luckily, Sephia is there to save his mental health by brewing the most calming tea and shoving a super fluffy animal for him to cuddle with whilst asking him questions about his inventions
The three came up with their own STEM TRIO manifesto around the same time the Magna Carta came out
Phastos and Sephia are each other's worst enable when it comes to missing social engagements because they will literally come up with the worst excuses for their absence when facing Ajak's interrogation
"Phastos, why were you not at the party last night?"
"I-" "He had to help me make a contraption to help an aging ape give birth to a mutated baby"
"..." "..."
"What she said"
"Sephia, these celebrations are in your honor, it offends the chief if you do not make an appearance."
"Maybe the chief should stop mistreating his goats, and then maybe she would consider"
"Yeah! Tell 'em Phastos!"
Meanwhile, Kaetlyn and Druig are watching this entire exchange and feeding each other snacks as Kaet is sitting on Druig's lap
When Kaetlyn and Sephia left with Druig at Tenochtitlan, they secretly came back and begged Phastos to go with them as they were setting up the community
When Phastos refused, the three promised each other that they would always make sure to keep in contact with one another
Lordy Lord, pray for Ben when he's given the shovel talk by these two girls
Although in the end, they are like the sisters he's never had, and only Phastos is the one who is bothered (not really) by their constant unexpected visits
Modern Times:
When Phastos found Ben and started dating him, Kaetlyn and Sephia fully vetted the poor human
They remembered how broken and devastated their brother was in the aftermath of the Bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and they were not about to let someone else hurt him
By the way, Kaetlyn and Sephia were the first Eternals to know Phastos was gay since they were the only ones he trusted to come out to
It was the same the other way around too
Phastos was the first one ever to help Sephia really understand her sexuality (demisexual) since she thought something was wrong with her since she had never really felt any sexual attraction like that to anyone ever in the 7,000 years she lived on Earth
She has tried throughout multiple occasions tried to have sex, but it never really worked out and she never felt those feelings associated with sexual attraction
For the longest time, she thought she was asexual until Ikaris turned out not to be dead from the sun, and she’s connected with him on a more emotionally intimate level than ever before, and now she’s feeling all these new feelings that are scaring the crap out of her
There were instances that she felt attraction and even had fantasies over certain fictional characters but she to experience something in her head as a fantasy as opposed to experiencing it in reality was a whole different topic of conversation
And she’s even experienced romantic feelings whenever she tried to put herself in relationships, but those romantic feelings only stayed romantic and she never felt any sexual feelings
So, when those new feelings emerged…a conference call was set up between the STEM Trio and it was a chaos call that was primarily about going over literature of the sexuality spectrum and the fluidity of identification
When Ikaris had trouble wrapping his head around it when Sephia came out to him, he ended up getting a whole explanation on it from Phastos and Kaet over Zoom
But yeah, these three are each other’s ride or die at any point of time
They literally choked down their hatred for this man so that their girl could have the chance to be in a happy relationship
On the plus side, these three always went to Pride together
Druig usually stayed at the Amazon during these events because he’s not a big fan of the crowds and despises the practice of rainbow capitalism
Once gay marriage was legalized, both Kaet and Sephia were the witnesses for Phastos and Ben’s courthouse wedding
Phastos DID try to hide Jack’s adoption…only for Sephia and Kaet to already be in the house when the couple brought him home for the first time and announce themselves as Jack’s godmothers
Their disappointment was imminent and their hearts could only be healed by holding their new godson
It’s just one heart attack after another for Phastos with these two girls around
Ben and Sephia get along so freaking well
They are constantly swapping recipes; Sephia crochets baby clothes and stuffed animals for Jack and Ben sends her the pictures; and whenever Phastos and Ben need a night out or are burned out, Sephia will be right there helping out
Sephia would be the one to tell Jack no matter what, he would always be perfect in her eyes, and teaches him that his differences from others are the things that would also turn into his strengths
Kaet is there bringing the chaos for baby Jack; she’s constantly popping her head into view when he least expects it and makes the sweetest giggles in the universe
One time, Phastos caught Kaet’s shadows tossing Jack in the air with him laughing without a care in world…he fainted
But Ben thought it was cute though so he was cool with it
But Kaet would also be the one to teach Jack the importance of staying true to yourself regardless of the pressure of whatever society may force upon him, and always encourages him to think like a mad genius
Seeing Phastos with his family gave Kaet the little push that made her realize that she really wants to start a family with Druig as well as helping her gain hope for humanity by just being around Ben and Jack
It had always been on the back of her mind, she always liked kids
But she had lost so much faith in humanity and the world around her that she was always putting it off
When she and Druig were pregnant, Kaet immediately set up a conference call with Sephia and Phastos to tell them before the rest of the eternals
When the twins (Laoise and Aisling) were born, Kaet asked Sephia and Phastos if they were willing to be the godparents (along with Makkari and Gilgamesh)
Phastos cried just as hard holding his baby goddaughters for the first time as he did when he first held baby Jack, and cried again when he held his godson a few years later
Phastos also became the godfather for Sephia’s and Ikaris’ kids (he also cried when he held all of their kids)
BTW remember Ikaris' drugged out confession from above?
You can bet your entire life savings that Phastos made sure to record every single glorious second of it and then played it Ikaris’ and Sephia’s wedding as part of his toast
Ikaris’ face turned so fucking red and he just wanted to DIE
Sephia thought it was super cute and funny and reassured him that he is the only one who has seen her boobs like that
There’s someone for everyone lol
Also, Phastos was the one to walk Sephia down the aisle since she looks up to him like he’s her tech-savvy older brother who will always teach her how to use her computer because she is terrible with tech
STEM trio became the STEM Parent Trio
When they get together, they trade gossip whilst sipping wine and watching Bluey and playing that fantasy game when you create a map using rice whilst cuddling with their Squishmallows
One-time all three got so plastered, they designed a whole-ass utopian city with modern technology whilst also being environmentally friendly and also filled with magic and affordable healthcare and reusable energy
Muffin reminds Phastos too much of Kaetlyn back in the old days and he straight up got a war flashback in “Faceytalk” and “The Sleepover”
All that being said and done, despite all the headaches and near heart attacks, there isn’t anything in the world Phastos would trade for Kaetlyn and Sephia; he loves his two crazy sisters more than anything
Whenever Halloween came, it became a tradition that Kaetlyn and Druig would go to Chicago so that Laoise and Aisling would go trick-or-treating with Jack
One year Aisling went as Silena Beauregard, Jack as Charles Beckendorf, and Laoise as Clarisse La Rue from Percy Jackson
Phastos made the lightning staff for Laoise to complete her costume
That was a mistake to say the least
But that’s a story for another time

It sucks that Phastos and Ben are constantly ignored and forgotten by the mcu fandom cause they're not pretty white guys like Loki or Bucky
Facts. It's very telling about those fandom members, as well, who ignore them

Love, Jack
Benstos | Rated G | 2.7k
Written for the Benstos Valentine’s Day Bingo 2023 hosted by @benstos
Prompt: homemade gift and music
This is my first time writing again in over a year and it was very much a rush job. I wanted to get something out today though, and all my other wips are miles away from being done so here’s some family fun for V-day!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Snippet:
Kingo proved himself less and less useful everyday (according to Sersi) when he expressed countless grievances with his editing abilities. Eventually he admitted defeat and suggested they outsource an editor.
Sprite has been added to the chat.
Together, Jack, Kingo, Karun,Sersi and Sprite put together what Jack hoped would be the perfect gift – and it was now loaded up on his computer, which was linked to the TV; and as it played he watched for his dads’ reactions.

15/06/2022: Phastos's first encounter with Ben
Phastos's intelligence has brought forth prosperity as well as devastation to this planet. He has witnessed humanity thrive and plummet right before his eyes. He is the master of creation, the smartest eternal. Yet he finds himself dumbstruck at the sight of the bearded man in front of him.
He peels his eyes away from the stranger's smile and asks the question he is sure he had asked just a moment ago. “What?”
The man seems to be a patient individual for he repeats his response once more. “You had dropped this.” He waves a brown, leather wallet at him. “Near the park's entrance.”
Phastos stares at him. On a crowded street during the Christmas eve, no one would bother if someone accidentally lost their wallet or even a child. Everyone is far too busy with their own lives to concern themselves with others. So then, why did this man waste his precious time being kind to Phastos?
“Thanks.” He accepts his wallet and shoves it back into his coat's pocket. And before he can stop himself, the offensive words slip out. “You didn't have to.”
The man smiles again. “Yes. But I chose to.”
“I..um–”
“It's alright.” The unknown man's gaze is empathetic now. “The blip took a lot from this world. And it must be hard enduring your loss. But it will get better. You will heal.”
The man turns to leave.
Phastos closes his eyes and takes a deep breath. Loud explosions and thousands of innocent screams echo in his ears. They never leave him. He hasn't simply lost his faith in humanity but also lost himself.
But for some reason, this stranger sparks hope within him again.
“H-how?” He stutters to the stranger's departing form. “How do I heal?”
The man turns his head in surprise. Then he retreats and answers. “You're already doing it.”
“The first step towards healing is wanting to heal.” He explains and offers a hand to Phastos. “I'm Ben.”
Phastos blinks. Then slowly raises his arm and shakes Ben's hand. “Phastos.”
» 3/? of Manika's Mini Fics «
Ben definitely restored Phastos's faith in humanity. And i just love these two. So i might write more fics for them ♥
