i’m obviously incredibly biased but i do think it’s kinda more interesting if the courier isn’t mad that benny shot them. for whatever reason! but especially if they come from similar backgrounds where it’s like “well it was respectful. he clearly didn’t want to kill me specifically it was business. and he basically threw me a funeral while i was still alive” and then their bigger issue is figuring out what to do now that they’re not dead. do they get revenge out of principle, do they try to solve the mystery of it all, do they hunt him down just to ask him to apologize, do they get roped into it by victor, or just general events? idk i obviously understand the revenge angle is very motivating, i just think a courier who doesn’t hate benny is really interesting and fun to play with. and not just because he’s my favorite guy and i could never hold it against him
wrote a story in my head while working where nile and booker go to see wakanda forever together and talk about it after coming out of the theatre, and after a while of talking about the story, nile’s like, and who's your favorite side character? and booker's like, hmmm. the queen. and nile's like, ooh, you know, that makes sense. and he asks her about her favorite and she decides she loved m'baku because she liked his vibes, but also she liked riri a lot because chicago pride. and then she's like, i hope shuri and namor hook up. and he's like, i guess they did have chemistry. and she's like, yeah and like, who doesn't like an older man? and booker's like 👀 and nile continues on talking about the movie while he’s still struggling to get his mind on track again.
that was the gist of it.
i’m unlikely to actually write this so i thought i’d post about it instead, to share the self-indulgence. think of it as a headcanon or whatnot.
i think that sometimes the best thing that you can do is remind yourself that there are beaches. lakes, rivers, and ponds. there are forests. little woods and meadows. there are canyons. gullies and mountain cliffs. there are rainy days. dry spells and scorching blue skies. that the world turns. changes as much as it repeats. that feeling slow today won't stop tomorrow's high tide. won't make july's blackberries any less ripe
going through my old journals as part of therapy homework and i'm reading a section written in the emotional wreckage of a full-on breakdown when i get hit with this line:
There is never a satisfying answer to ‘Why didn’t they love me?’
