Prince Erik

Heart of A Lion Spirit of a Panther

[van-dyne]

Robert Downey Jr on Howard Stern Show  where he responses to Martin Scorsese’s ‘not cinema’ comment and the talks of Oscar nom. I just wanna say I love this man so much, RDJ’s so respectful of others and remains classy while so many others become some obnoxious  snobs ever since Scorsese dropped that comment. And despite the success he never lets it gets in over his head, he built such unique, impactful, phenomenal  character like no others in the past decade, yet he remains humble about his work, and simply say ‘Let’s not.’ (to the Marvel team I assume) when the talks of getting him a nomination occurs. I just love him so much

Prompt: N’Jobu survives the encounter with T’Chaka. He forsakesthe life of Wakanda instead returning to Africa and essentially becoming King of Shakobi (fictional african country/featured in That’s So Raven). Buys up a lot of the vibranium from the Black Market and quickly reaches advancements of Wakanda and helps out the neighboring countries.

Ofc Wakanda tries to stop this advancements but because of their isolation they don’t have much to stand on.

N'Jadaka will never have to deal with their prejudices (also refuse to have any relationship with the royal family on the basis that his uncle attempted to kill his father. he’d hate to see what they’d do to him)

Prompt: Erik growing up as a Prince with his father still ALIVE

an artist friend was recently harassed at a con. she had people denigrate her merch, question the placement of characters on a gen art piece, and make ableist slurs about pairings. this isn’t about ships anymore, and it’s barely about fandom. frankly, this is a discussion about basic human politeness. in my life, i’ve used the ableist slur that fan used once and it was cause for my mother to explain to me in short and angry words that my behavior was unacceptable. i never used it again. the difference is: i was seven years old at the time and these people are fast approaching full adulthood if they’re not there already.

we’re reaching the point where fandom has reached near-religious levels of devotion by many people, to the exclusion of everything else. nothing should come before your ability to treat others with basic respect. this falls in line with what many of us have been saying as this has ramped up: if you don’t like something, don’t talk about it. fandom is not activism. and when you pretend it is, you open the door to a state of being that’s honestly horrifying.

we’ve had people feed artists needles over a ship. we’ve had the entire cast of a major series have to withdraw from fandom almost entirely due to death threats over a ship. it’s now typical that a fan needs to consider before posting something: am i ready to receive death threats for this? this is a level of absurd that at first blush is hilarious and at second is terrifying. so often i tell myself that these people will grow up and grow out of this behavior, but will they?

i never acted that way at that age and i can’t imagine i ever would have. i think my mother would have been livid if i’d tried. for many artists, fandom is a part of their livelihood, and the gall to come up in public and insult that livelihood to their face is both disgusting and the slippery slope to–demonstrably–much, much worse. so if you’re at a con and you see people act this way to an artist? don’t make a scene, but do something. try to talk to them. most cons have a zero harassment policy. if it comes to that, gently alert someone with the con that a fan is acting out of line, because artists are in absolutely no position to speak up and start an altercation over that and this is now common place and unacceptable.

and in a more general sense: i have no idea who is raising these people but eventually this behavior will come back to bite them and it will bite very fucking hard.

ERIK NEEDS HIS OWN SHOW

[erikofwakanda]

Prompt: After his father died, Erik decided to ignore everything about Wakanda and held little care for them. (If they could kill one of their own and abadon another, then they aren’t worth his time.) T’Challa goes through the archives and sees Zuri’s report about his long-lost cousin. Makes it his mission to bring Erik home. Erik refuses and is not afraid to fight back when they try to force him home. Wakandians are offended that he refuses their hospitality and turns his back on their culture.

[erikofwakanda]

that look of betrayal in his eyes staring at Zuri 😭

[samwilsonsbabymama]

T'Chaka and Zuri didnt even give N'Jobu a proper burial. They left a fucking child to deal with that shit.

[pessimisfit]

N’Jadaka deserved a redemption arc and I believe letting himself die after everything he went through to get to Wakanda was way out of character for him and it was even more out of character for T’Challa to LET HIM die after all telling his father and ancestors they were wrong for casting him out. Honestly why let him die if they were just going to fulfill his wishes to share Vibranium with the world?

[falllpoutboy]

when the movie ended and my emo ass realized the kids voice in the beginning talking to his father about wakanda wasn’t t’challa and t’chaka but it was erik and n’jobu

[erikofwakanda]

Tony Stark would definitely adopt Erik into his family regardless of age. And then sic him on the others he has adopted and Erik does not slack off on his younger siblings and Tony thought he was so smart until Erik refuse to put up with his bullshit and forced Tony to get sleep and eat and better training. (Pepper has never been more grateful. Now if only Erik will use that energy on himself)
