the dan and phil video’s got me in such a state of queer joy i genuinely considered coming out irl for a second

Why are you chips. What flavors are you…..

That was Alina's stupid name so you can blame it on her. But I'd be sweet chili if you really want to know.

MY NAME IS NOT STUPID and sweet chili is a ridiculous choice because you're not sweet at all. For me, I'd be honey soy chicken - objectively the best flavour ☆

I like chili and lime! Good mix of sour and spicy...plus it's amusing to slip one to Maxim while he thinks he's eating a different flavour.

Uhh I'd probably be sour cream and onion. I like the taste... but I don't like the flavour to be really strong though.. sometimes I think they accidentally mix up the flavours.. because I get a really spicy and salty chip every once in a while...

I think I'd just be regular salt. It's classic for a reason.

Not very realistic but I always see fury as a father figure to his adoptive lesbian murder daughters so here's one

Fury appointing you for all the major missions that you insisted you can handle and you've flown to 5 countries in the time span of a week and now he's telling you to go to Moscow or smth

Reader: "are you trying to kill me with jetlag?"

Fury: "no i'm trying to get you to admit that you're a human and cant work forever without getting tired, is it working?"

Reader: "nope"

Fury: "are you sure?"

Reader: "yep"

Fury: "then why did you just put salt in your tea?"

Reader being stubborn: "well maybe I prefer it with salt"

Fury gesturing: "take a sip then"

*Reader with a straight face downing the tea*

Fury just shaking his head in disbelief

Bonus:

when nat gets back

Reader: "will you tell him that i'm perfectly capable of this and will not succumb to fatigue?"

Fury: "romanoff, thank god please tell your girlfriend to go to bed. you have my permission to drag her to the bedroom and lock her in if you wish"

Meanwhile nat being annoyed at you for not getting enough sleep but she knows you stress work a lot so she just takes you to your bedroom and cuddle with you and watch TV shows with you until you fall asleep

Fury be like: "are you some kind of Saint? I've been trying to get that little shit to sleep for days. Days, romanoff and you manage it after 2 hours?"

you know why i, a champion of philindaisy and the team as family trope, am happy with daisy’s ending even if it means that she’s far away from her family? and why i don’t think it subverts the work the writers put into building the team up until it solidified itself as daisy’s family?

because living far away from family and not seeing them often is the reality for so many people in this world. especially for people who have moved away from their country.

hell, that’s my reality. i moved a whole goddamn ocean away from the people i call home. my family, both biological and found, lives miles and miles from me. most live across various oceans and seas. at this point i haven’t seen my mom or my dad in over seven months, and i don’t know when i’m seeing them again. i haven’t seen my brother in three years, and i know i likely won’t see him for many more. i haven’t seen my most of my best friends, who are my family in the deepest sense of the word, in years--i also don’t know when i’m going to see any of them again, but it’s likely going to be years. and, worst of all, i know i’m never going to get them all under the same roof again. 

and you know what? i miss them so fucking much my heart aches on a daily basis. but physical distance doesn’t mean emotional distance. and that’s what a lot of you are just leaping right over.

it doesn’t matter how far away they are or how much i miss them, all of them are still the deepest, most important relationships i’ll have. they’re the people who i come to first with everything, and in turn they do the same with me. the years have dragged on, but that’s never changed.

do i ache to physically be with them? yes. 

do i hate that i’m far from them? yes.

does distance affect our relationships? no. not aside from being able to hug them or hold their hand whenever i want to. 

the reality is that i’m living where i chose to and where i am needed, and that just so happens to be really far away from most of the people i love most in this world. 

just as daisy is living her life where she’s needed. and let’s be honest, nobody forced her to go out to space--mack would’ve never done that to her. she probably chose this. can we talk about how important that is from a character development standpoint? the fact that at any point she felt secure enough in the people she loves and the bonds they’ve formed that she was able to leave the planet to explore the universe? it takes a lot of emotional stability to be able to do that, and that stability is something that daisy’s been working towards throughout all seven seasons.

leaving family is always hard, and it’s always scary. the fear over the team splitting up that daisy was feeling up to the finale is normal, even for a person for a healthy, well-adjusted childhood; it is especially normal and expected for someone who fought so hard to find her family like daisy did. letting go of their physical presence was always going to be hard, and it’s likely she still struggles with it just as much as i do. 

but a year later, it’s clear she still loves these people deeply and that they love her just as much in return. she hasn’t lost her family just because she’s in space and they’re on earth. missing them, missing living with them, is just a part of loving them now.

familial love doesn’t shrivel away because of distance. if anything, it conquers all the distance this world and this universe can throw at you, and deepens because of it. that’s what makes family so special.

My boyfriend loves to get me riled up so he jokingly told me to "get into the kitchen and cook me dinner like a woman is supposed to"

It took him a solid minute to realise he is a professional cook
