Frodo’s a nepo baby when you think about it but like for sucky things. That’s your uncle’s evil ring? That’s your uncle’s wizard that took you on an adventure? That’s your uncle’s feud with a homicidal gremlin man that’s after your uncle’s ring? Great
Clark Kent, trying to leave a gala he’s covering: Ope, just gonna squeeze right past you.
Bruce Wayne, who heard Superman say the same thing at a Justice League meeting that morning: No fucking way
Round 2, bracket B, poll 7
Which badass ship/couple is your favourite?
Gideon Nav x Harrowhark Nonagesimus (The Locked Tomb)
Eda Clawthorne x Raine Whispers (The Owl House)
Propaganda for Griddlehark here
Propaganda for Raeda: "they're so cute together! they were a couple when they were younger (shown in flashbacks), but get back together again later in the series. raine is a member of the bard coven who works for the emperor (the main villain), but doesn't have bad intentions themself and leads a rebel faction with their fellow bards. eda is the second most important character in the show, a witch who couldn't care less about rules. raine teams up with eda and helps her both defeat the emperor and realise eda's curse doesn't make her evil or ugly, they still love eda for who she is. while not technically confirmed, we like to assume they are married in the epilogue (that's canon to me at least)"
Round 2, bracket B, poll 9 (last one in this round)
Which badass couple is your favourite?
Caitlyn Kiramman x Vi (Arcane)
Nicolo 'Nicky' di Genova x Yusuf 'Joe' al-Kaysani (The Old Guard)
Propaganda for Caitvi: "in the game, they're fighters and are confirmed to be girlfriends who live together (Vi mentions wanting to go back home to Caitlyn). They're not canon yet in the show, but Vi's butch swag and calling Caitlyn 'cupcake' are working pretty well so far."
Propaganda for Joenicky: "they're immortal. they've been alive almost 1000 years. enemies to lovers even (they killed each other repeatedly before they fell in love). one gives a speech about how much he loves the other WHILE they're both being held prisoner in the back of a van and then they kill everyone. also they're really really important to me"
"they killed each other fighting on opposite sides of the crusades and then both resurrected as immortals and killed each other many times before becoming allies and then falling in love. they've fought first each other and then side by side for hundreds of years and are total complements in battle, along with their other immortal family!!"
Round 2, bracket B, poll 8
Which badass couple is your favourite?
Korra x Asami Sato (The legend of Korra)
Luz Noceda x Amity Blight (The Owl House)
Propaganda for Korrasami: "Korra is literally the Avatar and Asami is a hottie that can fight too. And they made people mad when the last episode aired and they were officially announced as together and I love that for them. Stay mad homophobes"
"...Do I really need to explain how korrasami is a canon queer battle couple?"
Propaganda for Lumity: "Witch girlfriends! They made me insane when the Grom episode dropped (they defeated a monster by dancing and magic, Amity was confirmed to have a giant crush on Luz), then they continued to give me brainrot since I was NOT prepared for canon sapphics in a Disney cartoon. These two fought monsters, demons and even a god together, kissed and were adorable nerds, good for them"
*The person who submitted this propaganda also submitted a link to the magic dance scene. Observe the badassery <3
Round 2, bracket B, poll 6
Which badass couple is your favourite?
Catra x Adora (She Ra and the princesses of power)
Suletta Mercury x Miorine Rembran (Gundam: the witch from Mercury)
Propaganda for Catradora: "They spend the majority of the show as enemies, but they resolve their differences at the end and get to be gay and fight together again. They're both child soldiers so they're already good fighters as is, and Adora gets a magic destiny that makes her even stronger! They save the universe from a fascist cult leader! :D"
"Fought each other now fight alongside"
Round 2, bracket B, poll 4
Which badass couple is your favourite?
Amaya x Janai (The dragon prince)
Wei Wuxian x Lan Wangji (The Untamed/Mo Dao Zu Shi)
Propaanda for Janaya: "Super cool enemies to allies due to circumstance to lovers with political intrigue due to differing cultures (also Amaya is deaf and that’s pretty cool - she called Janai cute in sign language in the third season in the show and they weren’t even dating yet)."
"They're both super badass and Amaya is amazing deaf representation"
