My Love Letter To Scar And Lex From AVP

My love letter to Scar and Lex from AVP

aka 'why AVP is definitely a love story XD'

(I was talking to someone about this yesterday who is definitely not a monsterfucker, and they were not convinced by my take on AVP at all XD. I think this is definitely a monsterfucker spin on the movie)

_

her expression when she's peeking through the wall and watching him go through his scarring ritual is curious, not fearful

My Love Letter To Scar And Lex From AVP

he's obviously curious about her too, and doesn't attack, letting her say her piece before deciding what to do about her

My Love Letter To Scar And Lex From AVP

she's the one who calls him friend first :) (admittedly, it's in an 'enemy of my enemy' context, but hey)

he could kill her here, but hesitates a long time:

My Love Letter To Scar And Lex From AVP

He's clearly torn about letting her come with him, but when he sees her looking at him like this, he can't help but want to assist her:

My Love Letter To Scar And Lex From AVP

He does not have time to waste hacking a xenomorph to bits, let alone giving Lex Xeno Biology: 101, but he does it all the same, and he even makes a little joke to lighten the situation

He cobbles together some gear to keep her safe:

His plucky human goes first into the danger ahead, but he's there, guarding her back. Plus, he's taller so he can see ahead too:

My Love Letter To Scar And Lex From AVP

He lets her take care of her friend and doesn't butcher him to get at the parasite/hatchling/chestburster. Instead he waits for her to leave, then catches the thing and destroys it (so as not to upset her further?):

Even in the heart of the hatchery, where time is 100% of the essence, he pauses yet again to explain the self-destruct feature on his vambrace to her: (10/10 for communication, Scar)

My Love Letter To Scar And Lex From AVP

Yautja can run way faster than humans, but he stays half a pace behind her for the entire escape sequence:

My Love Letter To Scar And Lex From AVP

Tell me this isn't the face of a man in wonder at the person before him:

My Love Letter To Scar And Lex From AVP

And Lex isn't exactly... unaffected... oof

My Love Letter To Scar And Lex From AVP

Then he waits for her to nod her consent, and does a really tidy job of marking her as a Blooded, and his concentration is to the max!! (his little purr after he's finished is so cute too). The he bows in respect to her. She may be human, but she's his equal as a warrior.

My Love Letter To Scar And Lex From AVP

After Lex has saved his life and injured (and seriously pissed off) the Alien Queen, and while she's tearing the place to bits to get at Lex, Scar does the most Extra™ spin attack to draw her attention away from Lex, lodging his combistick right through her face. Bad. Ass!

My Love Letter To Scar And Lex From AVP

Then while Lex gets away, he roars and flares his mandibles in a challenge at the Queen, which gives Lex the opportunity she needs to pick up the chain, and the two of them haul on it together and work seamlessly. They clearly understand each other without the need for words, or ego. This is very much a Team Effort:

He protecc:

Bonus Alien vs Predator shot :)

This heartbreaking scene, where he feels like he's trying to tell her something (in the novel, he apparently says 'the enemy of my enemy is my friend' in her voice...)

Lex seems genuinely grief-stricken when he dies:

I wonder how long she stayed there like that before the Ancient's ship showed up?

My Love Letter To Scar And Lex From AVP

Lex' final expression:

In short, this definitely is an inter-species love story and you can pry that theory from my cold, dead little claws :).

Also why did he have to die??? T.T

Touya is still in Pain

Touya/Dabi is portrayed in an extremely vulnerable light this chapter.

He’s ripping his hair out, crying, with a helpless mouth open/(perhaps grin?), hand stretched out, calling for help and scarred tissue already appearing. He’s looked from a high vintage point, as if the audience is looking down at him from above.

Touya Is Still In Pain

In the next one we Dabi’s scarred back, examining the new scars on his wrists/hands. His back is almost completely covered with scars, his white hair stark against his back. Showing one’s back has always been a sign of vulnerability.  By looking at his new scars, the readers understands he’s in pain that has new wounds to add to the already massive collection of scars. the tilt of his head is contemplative yet resigned, like ‘Ah another one.’ His hand here is contrast to the one above, curled and concealed, no longer reaching. 

Touya Is Still In Pain

By revealing this more helpless side of Touya/Dabi, Hori not only gains more sympathy from the audience, but also showcases how Dabi is still that hurt child, but he’s no longer calling out for help, after having been hurt for far too long.

If "It's Hell", then...

you shouldn't hate villains/abusers, they're literal demons who act like they're supposed to;

you shouldn't care if characters are abused, Hell is a place of suffering;

Lucifer, Asmodeus and Beelzebub shouldn't be good;

Mammon shouldn't be the most despised Sin in the fandom;

Satan shouldn't have anger manager;

ancient immortal beings should act accordingly, not like children;

there should be no rehabilitation centers, hospitals, etc.;

there should be no economy and laws;

anarchy reigns supreme here, chaos' everywhere!

love is unacceptable;

affection and empathy aren't normal, no one cares about each other's feelings;

there is no such a thing as marriage;

there shouldn't be so many healthy relationships (M&M, Fizzarozzie, Beetex, Chaggie + Millie's parents probably and maybe Lucilith at some point);

there shouldn't be so many naive/polite people (Fizz, Moxxie, Octavia, Charlie, Sir Pentious, etc.);

no one would applaud M&M at the end of their lovey-dovey song at Ozzie's;

none of Blitzø's exes should be mad that he didn't fall in love with any of them;

Paimon wouldn't try to cheer baby Stolass up by going to the circus with him and prove that he's good at 'daddying' (why would he even need this anyway?);

where are n@zis, terror!sts, pedoph!les, necroph!les and some other freaks? or are shitty dads/bosses/wives meant to be the limit of evil for you?

why do sinners have a chance to gain strength and power if this place exists as a punishment for their sins?

why do demons need to eat and sleep?

Probably the list will be updated over time...

Here a very good video from english speaking ukrainian yt channel: "Johnny Harris just made the worst video in his career. Reaction from Ukraine"

About russian propaganda and imperialism and how even well meaning westerners often misunderstanding it and spreading it, not always even knowingly.

⚠️Heartbreaking Encanto Realisation ⚠️

So I was rewatching the music video to Dos Orugitas when I noticed something.

We all know that each family members room (with the exception of Mirabel) is unique to them and their likings. Antonio likes animals and his room is a jungle. Isabella likes plants and her room is a garden and so on and so forth.

Well…………look at Abuleas

⚠️Heartbreaking Encanto Realisation ⚠️
⚠️Heartbreaking Encanto Realisation ⚠️

It looks just like the one her and Pedro shared in their old home!

It’s not big and spectacular like the others. It’s small and simple and reminiscent of the life she once had. A small bit of familiarity, where after a long day of duties and responsibilities she can go back in time to the life she once had. When she didn’t have an entire town depending on her. When she didn’t know miracles existed because she never needed one. When she was just a young girl living in a small boring completely ordinary house with her loving husband and beautiful children.

Because THAT is what she likes most.

Yeah, Zuko Alone is still one of the very best, if not the best, episodes of Avatar. The shocking and disturbing revelations about his family and backstory are riveting, the choreography of his fight with the earthbenders is incredible, and the choice to explore Zuko’s psychological trauma through the framework of a Western is brilliant. But above all, the moment when Li turns on Zuko and rejects him for being a firebender is so important, as it’s the first of many scenes in his path to redemption in which he tries to help but is ultimately rejected by those he saves. It’s such a pivotal episode for his character development, and it’s still one of my favs.
