Happy Holidays from Kate Bishop’s apartment above the pizza place.

Kate: *Speaking to all the guests at her holiday party* Anyway, when I am feeling down, I like to sing one of my favorite Christmas songs about some of my favorite things. I think you all know the words.

[singing] Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens

whiskers on babies and babies on buildings

long beards on babies and mittens with wings

these are a few of my favorite things

*music break*

jackets on ponies and bread on baloneys

stark and ho are two of my favorite Tonys

going to court dressed like the lord of the rings

these are a few of my favorite things

When the tree falls, when the bee stings

and the other bee stings

i simply remember I’m allergic to bees

and then I don’t feel my feet

Yelena: Hey, Kate?

Kate: Yes, babe? Truthfully, being with you is one of my favorite things.

Yelena: Yes. Me too, me too. But I notice that some of the lyrics in your song were incorrect and didn’t make any sense. Do you mind if I sing the real ones?

Kate: Oh, no. Please. By all means.

Yelena: Thank you.

[singing] Pop rocks on hot dogs and mustard on ladies

musical improv of Mr. Wayne Brady

sitting quite nude on Kate's exercise bike

Kate: What?!

Yelena: [singing] these are just some of the things that I like

Kate: [joining in] When my dog sits

Yelena: On the ceiling

Kate: Cause he’s being bad

Kate and Yelena: I simply remember my favorite things

and then I will kiss your dad

Peter: Hey, guys?

Kate: Yes, Peter?

Peter: I’m sorry to interrupt but those are not the words.

Kate: Huh?

Yelena: Say what?

Peter: Yes. I was in choir in high school. So, let me do this. These are the actual real words.

[singing] Cream colored ponies and crisp apple strudels

doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles

Kate: Whoa! Whoa! I’m sorry. You have a beautiful singing voice. But those words were crazy.

Yelena: That’s not cool.

Kate: That’s not cool, what you just did.

Yelena: It’s not okay. I can’t believe you would say those things in front of Santa. *she gestures to the corner where Kate has one of those creepy standing singing Santas*

Peter: I’m sorry. I don’t understand. Those are the words.

Yelena: No, no. The way the song works is you say your own favorite things.

Kate: Yes. Because these times are so crazy that we’re in and your favorite things are going to get a little crazier too.

Peter: Okay. I get it. Now, let’s do that again. Thank you.

[singing] Beef empanadas and beef chimichangas

pork empanadas and a pork chimichangas

chicken fajitas and chicken tacos

these are a few of my favorite those

Yelena: Much better.

Kate: Yes. Much better. Wait. Peter, are you hungry?

Peter: Yes. Very. I was just listing everything that I’d want to eat right now.

Kate *throwing her arm around Peter’s shoulders* Then let’s get you that food, buddy. *then Kate puts her other arm around Yelena's shoulders* Well, I love singing with you both. What do you say we take this home?

Kate, Yelena, and Peter: [singing] When the dog bites, ow, it bit me,

please arrest that dog

I simply remember my favorite things

and you two are two of my favorite things

good bye to the hard years, you really did stink

and now we don’t feel so bad

*Cut to Riri Williams standing there very unimpressed* Riri: Wow. And you guys are the ones in charge here?

Okay Everyone! Now that Hailee is pregnant, I’m gonna need all the Kate Bishop is pregnant stories. With Yelena, with whoever. But do know this: pregnant or not Kate Bishop is total dad energy even though she’s the pregnant one.

#kate bishop #hawkeye kate bishop #hawkeye #yelena belova #black widow #bishova #Kate/Yelena #hailee steinfeld #remember when Kelly Clarson was talking about Wiz Khalifa and said how great of a dad he was and character to Hailee?#and then Kelly said that’s what I think about you too #and Hailee goes How great of a dad I am?#and Kelly goes that you’re a great character. you’re a great dad too #and Hailee’s just like well thank you #yeah that lives rent free in my brain

I saw someone arguing that Mary was 'dangerous' in Sinners due to 'the white supremacy she benefited from'. So I wanted to explore that.

Firstly, if you're white passing yes you get more privilege than those not, regardless of race. I say this as a sometimes white passing wasian. But that is... completely beside the point of her character.

SHE WAS SUPPOSED TO SHOW THE GODDAMN DISTANCE CREATED BY RACISM. THE TEARING APART COMMUNITIES. THE 'YOU LOOK DIFFERENT, YOURE NOT ONE OF US'. THE 'YOU ARENT ENOUGH TO BE WITH US'.

Mary was raised by a (presumably visibly) black mother. She was raised knowing Annie and the twins and even Sammie, everyone she loved and cared about was black and she was raised as if she was too. Then she got older and it became evident she looked different, and suddenly it wasn't safe for her to be with the people she loved.

How confusing must that have been for Mary? How weird would it have been she was thrown in a world she didn't know? She talked like them, she was raised by them and then she couldn't see them again.

I'm not saying she's presented as worse off or even equal in her victimisation than the black characters on screen- far from it. I loved the presentation of her because it actively acknowledges how different she is from the other characters without just straight up saying 'shes just white' or 'no shes really black'. Like there's nuance to it. Annie says she's "family", and that's enough for them.

Nor is she blameable for the events of the movie- Sinners never blames the actual characters (the sinners themselves) it blames the system. Mary isn't to blame. She isn't at fault, she just wants to be with a family and a man who can't let her in because of what white society thinks.

Mary just hates being different to her family and she isn't 'dangerous' because of it, and if she is well guess what it isnt my girls fault. Real asf mixed experience can I just say.

Kate learning that Yelena was just playing around with her during their fight in Hawkeye and demanding a rematch

Yelena warning her that she can't handle it but Kate doesn't let it go

Kate getting her ass handed to her but at least she knows what she has to train towards now

Yelena helping her up and leaning in to whisper "I was still holding back" with the most smug expression

Kate realizing that she got off very lucky and she'd severely underestimated Yelena (or over estimated herself)

She'll never admit she's kind of into it

You know what doesn’t make sense to me? When people write A/B/O fanfics with Yelena as the Alpha. That’s not the relationship dynamic at all.

Kate is Alpha.

Yelena is Omega.

Fight me about it.

Yelena’s guinea pig is named ‘Kate Bishop’. It broke Kate’s brain because ‘wow, you named your pet after me 🥹’ but also ‘Kate Bishop, you’re so stupid’ Yelena says cooing at the cage. And Kate’s like ‘don’t call her stupid’ and Yelena’s like ‘I meant you, Kate Bishop.’

I just saw yt shorts about the bone museum in brooklyn and i immediately thought "i bet kate will take yelena there in one of their dates"

i'm not expecting you to write it (but it's cool if you do). i just wanna tell somebody about my discovery lol

This is awesome. I threw together a grilled cheese (quick to make and taste delicious) story. But I might develop it into something longer, because following them through a whole tour of the museum sounds really fun.

“Date Night with a Body Count”

Kate Bishop taps her pen against a notepad, sprawled out on the couch in her Brooklyn loft. Her brow furrows. Date night with Yelena isn’t just “dinner and a movie.” That’s too boring. Too normal. And normal doesn’t cut it when your girlfriend is a Black Widow assassin who thinks skydiving without a parachute is “fun.”

She mumbles to herself. “No axe-throwing again, she beat the instructor too fast. No escape room—she disarmed the ‘bomb’ with a paperclip and raw disdain.”

She scrolls through ideas, looking for something weird enough to impress a woman who finds taxidermy relaxing. Then she stops.

Morbid Anatomy Museum.

Kate smirks. “Skeletons. Mummified squirrels. Victorian mourning jewelry. Yep. Right up her alley.”

She texts Yelena:

K: “What do you think about ‘strange specimens and obscure death rituals’ for date night?”

Y: “You remembered I like those! :)”

Y: “Where?”

K: “Morbid Anatomy Museum. You’ll love it. There’s a lecture on postmortem photography and a wet specimen workshop.”

Y: “WET SPECIMENS?? ❤️❤️❤️”

K: “I booked us tickets. Don’t wear white.”

~~~~

*Later That Night*

Yelena walks the museum like a kid in a candy store made of bones. She peers into glass jars of pickled organs like she’s admiring fine wine. She’s glowing. Kate’s watching her, half creeped out, half in love.

“Look at this,” Yelena says, holding up a Victorian hair brooch. “They used to keep these after someone died. It’s sentimental and stylish.”

Kate grins. “Great. Let me know if you want me to start growing mine out.”

Yelena smirks. “Only if you die dramatically.”

Kate shrugs. “Noted.”

They wander the aisles together—Yelena gleeful, Kate entertained—and by the end, they’re holding hands between exhibits on death masks and medical oddities. Yelena tucks her head into Kate’s shoulder.

“Best date ever,” she says, totally sincere.

Kate kisses her temple. “You’re morbid. But you’re my morbid.”

Hope you enjoy! 🫶🏻

I just need this. But maybe with Cassie, too. Credit: Thais @tati_sketch on X. It didn't say that she has a Tumblr, and I didn't find it here!

Hot Toys Kate Bishop has two grip hands, obviously do the bow can be used on either hand.

I was thinking, what if I used two short swords, she could dual wield like Legolas!

But I suspect that is out of character, though it could be fun to try?

hobby-related-nonsense

...unless it wasn't short swords, what about batons? The kind that black widow uses?

I think that would be in character. Might have to delve into a bits box and see what I have.

616 Kate Bishop definitely uses two battle staves, like Mockingbird

Haileeween 2023 Presents: Kate training the Young Avengers. Part 1.

*Kate has set out an unplugged Nintendo Entertainment System on a table in the common room at Young Avengers HQ*

Kate: Your first task is to plug this into the TV, and get it to turn on. Once you’ve completed that, I’ll give you the next one.

*Yelena to Kate as they observe the Young Avengers at work*: Kate Bishop, are you sure this is the best way to test them?

Kate: Oh definitely!

*Cassie after a few minutes of struggling to figure out how to plug the NES into the TV*: This is impossible. There’s no way to plug this cord into the flatscreen.

*Kate subtly nods in the direction of the forgotten CRT TV in the corner*

*After a bit more struggling, the Young Avengers get the NES on. Ghosts ‘n Goblins is the game that comes on screen*

Kate: Great job guys! Your next task is beat this game. You can take turns, or give the controller to whoever at any point to take over, but you must beat the game. Good luck!

*The Young Avengers cheer as they get to play a video game for the rest of the training session not knowing how hard the game is.*

*Yelena to Kate*: Now that is just mean. Why would you subject them to this? They are just children.

Kate: If they can beat this game together, they can beat anything together.
