green lady gamora
two requests for miss gamora, so here goes!
first impression: like a lot of people, i first came to marvel cosmic with the gotg movie in 2014 — and i thought gamora was the most interesting character in it. most interesting, and... most shafted; here was a character with a really rich backstory, a compelling drive to break away from her abuser and do good, but that was barely given any attention. i wanted more.
impression now: one of my actual favorite characters in all of marvel comics — who still isn't given the due she should be, really. i love her drive and i love her heart, which is much bigger than she knows.
favorite moment: out of everything, i will say the moment in the 2008 gotg run when she steps out and exposes herself to extreme heat to save the rest of the team, when especially at this point, she barely knows or likes most of them. she's SO GOOD, y'all.
idea for a story: another team up with angela, and other awesome galactic women, as they find and protect kids from people who will do them harm. bonus points if gamora and angela kiss.
unpopular opinion: apart from the... dying... i don't think gamora got a terrible write in the mcu, especially as compared to other characters. even if it's a bit stripped, and not quite as angry or feral or salty as she is in the comics, the core of her character and personality are, in fact, there.
favorite relationship: i'm legally obligated to say it; i love her relationship with rich 🥺 they may seem like opposites at first glance, but they have a lot more in common than you might realize, and it's just... a really interesting dynamic to explore, whether platonically or romantically.
favorite headcanon: gamora is extremely competitive, and she loves game night — just engage with her at your own risk, because shit gets real. there may or may not be swords/knives involved.
send me a character, and i will answer these questions!
