Don't marvel vampires react to faith and not just the paraphernalia usually associated with defeating them? Or aren't they supposed to, anyway?

you know what, i actually have no clue?? i would bet, though, that this is a case of writers doing whatever the hell they want with no regard for canon

coc is the worst wrt understanding what it is you want it to do (also, i have been playing nonstop for the past few weeks and it wasn't until today that i realized mastery points were a thing i hate this game)

IT’S SO BAD just, oh my god, figure out how to make your game work i hate losing matches just because you can’t detect my fingers arrrgh

According to the Marvel universe wiki, he has a college degree from the Xavier School, which ?????? and he has apparently taken some graduate level classes

...huh. im not in the mood to go looking up exactly what you would have to do in order to be able to issue college degrees but i wasn’t under the impression that the school did that haha. i also sort of wonder when he would have had the time to take courses on the side...but i guess he could have here and there haha

picture this: werewolves where most of their fur is their natural color but the fur on top of their head is whatever they've died their human hair to be

GOOD honestly that’s what i was picturing too—a wolf with dappled brown and grey up until this little dull pink patch on top of their head. a white wolf with like, bright blue. what a wonderful world

I think Eve's probably a Ravenclaw. She's definitely smart, and she seems to approach moral and emotional issues from a logical standpoint.

I feel like she is led by her heart as well though. She has the loyalty to Annalise despite the fact that Annalise left her for Sam. She is warm as well. When Annalise comes crying, she immediately says she'll make a bed for her. I feel like on the exterior, she presents in a certain orderly way, but I hope they develop her. That being said, the way she approached Nate's case certainly showed more of a Ravenclaw tendency.

beautyoftheshadows replied to your post:ALEX: ok gtg rocks arent going to lick themselves...

that fic for me (the one i always go back to and reread) is actually mask protocols because in addition to having perfect scott it also has perfect jean and grayjay’s writing is just amazing

yeah i think mask protocols is also my favorite of the rex racer stories it’s just so. good. and the way greyjay handles when scott has his cyclops persona on and when it starts breaking down is just so - GAH i love that one so much

beautyoftheshadows replied to your post: okay also i know i talk endlessly about how the...

and i mean. the good guy whatever his name is is Very Clearly a reference to Captain America/Captain Marvell/The Old Style Avengers (i mean irl its superman but they dont have him) so there’s the idea that heroes like that CAN quit while xmen cant

!!!!!! GOOD like the passing superhuman gets to retire on a whim and do whatever and the non-passing superhuman has to stick around

i love scott's "i am a grumpy guy with coffee and long hair and really cool sunglasses" phase so much because honestly being the leader of a sovereign island of mutants really feels like his version of having a successful career and a normal life (sorry, its just that a lot of the pics of scott you're posting are from that era and i really miss utopian scott because he was trying his best and leading his people and life kinda really sucked but it didnt diminish the optimism of the series)

i knoooooow i loved the utopia era, like you said it felt very optimistic even though things were still down the gutter and scott seemed so much more relaxed than usual :< i wish that mood had lasted longer ahhh
