Comic character questions, the ladies!

Black Widow: Tell a secret?

I sabotaged a date for my best friend ONCE because I had a crush on him. We use to be really close and the girl asked me if i could asked him if he was interested in her and the next day I came back and told her he had said no.

Captain Marvel: Are you the recipient of a legacy?

My family owns a bakery which I’m hoping will get passed down to me, it’s my grandfathers legacy and I would love to own it even if I wasn’t able to work it seeing as its in mexico and all 

Ms. Marvel: Talk about something new you’re doing.

Well it’s the summer so all you are getting from me is reading new comics

She-Hulk: What keeps you busy?

Reading and Writing 

Black Cat: Do you have a code of ethics?

Yup, I could form a secret society around it

Jean Grey: What is something about yourself you can’t control?

I am very ungraceful, like one of those big dogs who still thinks its a puppy

Storm: What do people look up to you for?

tbh, probably nothing

Rogue: What makes it hard for people to get close to you?

I tend to come off as aggressive when it comes to first impressions so that kind of pushes people away a bit

Shadowcat: Talk about growing up.

It sucks, It’s scary and confusing and exciting and stressful and chaotic 

Scarlet Witch: What things have you broken? 

like? objects? a lot, nothing to memorable. If you meant body parts i broke my left arm when i was little which sucked cause i am left handed. If it was like emotional then friendships that where at a dead end

Invisible Woman: Talk about a process of finding your identity.

I used to have a huge issue with this, with myself and feeling alienated. There  was a long time in my life when everything i did, every single thing, was just to please my mom. Nothing was ever enough and I became someone I didnt really want to be. So when i realized that I could in fact live my life without the need of her approval or recognition I dropped everything, the AP classes, the band, the clothing style, the likes, the dislikes, the expectations, just everything. And I started doing the things I wanted to do. And here we are.

Comic book questionsm odds.

First of all let me thank you because I was ready to resort to cleaning my room to rid myself of this boredom so YOU ARE AWESOME!

1. marvel or dc?? why?DC, movie wise I feel (and most of us can agree) that Marvel's pinnacle was CATWS. you fucked up marvel, it was too good and nothing after that will be good enough. Also DCCU has Ben Affleck and Henry cavil soooo yeah.

Comic book wise, idk i have found for me its easier to jump into DC story lines than Marvel ones. I seriously have no idea why. 3. favorite female character?

the white queen,her frostiness, the ever lovely and forever powerful Emma Frost.

5. what would your mutant superpower be?

hmm..something with force fields would be nice

7. who do you think has the coolest superpower?

the green lanterns it’s all about imagination!9. what would you do if you had a superpower? would you keep it to yourself?

Nah, I would love to become a vigilante  

11. which character do you wish didn’t exist?Didn’t exist?? idk i cant think of anyone i mean even the bad ones are good lol

13. favorite extraterrestrial character? (ie. superman, thor)IS IT A BIRD??! IS IT A PLANE?!! NO!! IT’S SUPERMAN!!

“I LOVE YOU SUPERMAN I WISH YOU WHERE REAL!”

15. which character do you think should get a movie? (besides hawkeye and wonder woman bc literally everyone wants that)Jason Todd 

17. favorite comic book artist?McKelvie & Gillen

19. what would you say to stan lee if you met him? 

idk i probably ask him who his favorite superhero is

Where do you watch Hamlet and your other plays? I need till see Tennant's.

well I've seen a couple of them in the lit or theater classes that I've been in, so I think teachers just checked them out from the library, but Tennant's version is up on the PBS site, so if you just type "PBS Hamlet" into google it should pull up. They also have it for streaming on Amazon for like $5 I think? Oh and somewhere under my Shakespeare tag I have a "Shakespeare on Youtube Masterpost," it's on like the 4th page? I haven't watched all of them (I've been meaning to but haven't done so yet) so I can't vouch that they're all there or are good quality but. If you need other Shakespeare plays. And if you have Netflix there's a couple of Shakespeare plays up on it. I know that they have at least a couple versions of Romeo and Juliet there and Whedon's Much Ado (which I have watched...about half of? I should finish it...) and probably a few others besides. 

If you want me to send you a link to the youtube masterpost I can probably do that if you don't want to dig through my Shakespeare tag, just let me know!
