New Pfp ❤️

I think what I love about Vontra is that you immediately pick up that she's an antagonist.

Spoilery bits below, mostly I'm rambling.

We spent this whole movie with characters being introduced as threats, they attack Roz, break her, steal peices of her, insult her. Roz is subjected to the brutality of the food chain every scene of the movie, but for the animals this is natural, this is normal. You eat others, others eat you, you fight to stay alive every day.

Roz's compassion in encoded into her, it's the human pack bonding that makes everyone in the film think she's weird, and she never loses this most human part of herself. Proof that she was made by human hands, it saves her and everyone else.

Except that it's a part of human kind that humans in power don't like.

The place that made Roz wants everything to be perfect, it's a city of the future, an oasis for select humans to escape what is slowly revealed to be a world in ruins from climate change, but we never see more of that except the passing scenery of destroyed cities.

Life is still growing, still thriving, and corporations are still building walled cities and promising the ultra wealthy a completely subservient servant class.

When the ship arrives to collect Roz, the ship she's been trying to signal half the movie, we don't know what to expect. Are they friendly? Are they here to fix her? She's been slowly breaking down the final half of the movie, leaking fluid, losing peices, shutting down as her battery depletes faster and faster. She gets fatigued, she uses a prosthetic, she goes days without moving.

She is disabled.

And down from this ship that is supposed to rescue her drops a peppy sounding companion who promises to 'fix' her.

Even though she is programmed to sound happy to put others at ease, as she states, you know immediately that she is Bad News.

The way she talks down to Roz, her manner of speech, her constant invasion of personal space, her pointed questions that are obviously accusations.

Yeah we all went "ooh toxic yuri >3" because we love queer coded villains getting flirty.

But it was also very obviously meant to feel violating, specifically similar to medical violation.

Roz was on display as a disabled robot, something in need of repair, in need of help, but Vontra saw her as something needing to be Corrected, not simply fixed but full factory reset, all the bits of her that are unique sent away to be studied.

Roz wanted help, she wanted to belong, she wanted to be repaired, but she also still wanted to be HER. However it's her disability that influenced her changes in coding, she needed to create her own updates to get around issues she faced, and it created a personality she enjoyed being.

She wanted a choice, but Vontra was programmed to see all deviation from the norm as something in need of repair. Roz wasn't a person in need of help, she was a defect to be collected, studied, adjusted, and put back out into production.

Respecting Roz, her boundaries, her thought process, even her willingness to be touched, it didn't even occur to Vontra. Because Vontra is a robot programmed to collect broken robots, and Roz is a broken robot.

Appreciation post with every single Taylor Room I've done so far! 💛💜❤️🩵🩷🩶🤎💙🤍

The Taylor Swift Room and the Reputation Room won't be done until we have their Taylor's Version re-release (it would only be fair!).

just to make things a little bit nicer around here, I'm adding some enrichment to your enclosure. I hope you like :)

So I just randomly did a punnet square at 1 am about the possibilities of 4 fingers vs 5 fingers. And I feel like sharing so enjoy!

J- 5 fingers N- 4 fingers

Parents: JN x NN

Jakes avatar body has 50% human DNA and 50% Na’vi DNA, making him have JN. Neytiri is NN because she’s a purebred Na’vi. And if you put those two dominate traits in a punnet square, you get a 50/50 chance.

The genotype is 50% JN and 50% NN

The phenotype would also be 50% 4 finger and 50% 5 finger

And seeing as Tuk and Neteyam have 4 fingers and Lo’ak has 5 fingers, it’s safe to assume that if Jake and Neytiri had another kid, it would have 5 fingers.

Thanks for reading my random science bullshit while I still work on running out of air pt. 2

these bitches seeds gay. good for them.

Who had warrior cats trending in the year of our lord 2024 on their bingo cards

An amazing commission of me as a N'avi!! Thank you @sullyfortress 💙💙💙

Oh my god this is an amazing take 🥹

okay but i was randomly thinking about stephen strange and bucky barnes. like i've never seen any fandom hypotheticals about them interacting, so i was pondering on it for a minute. and, well, i have nothing amazing fleshed out. but i thought of bucky (in an au where shuri doesn't help him with the hydra crap for whatever reason) showing up at the sanctum and asking for stephen's help. & stephen assumes that bucky needs magic help to fight someone so he gets ready to leave and tells bucky to tell him what's happening on the way. to which bucky says no, he heard that stephen's a doctor, that's why he came. so they sit down and bucky says that they have the files on what hydra did to him, but neuroscience is a highly specialized field and neither tony nor bruce are qualified and they don't have the background to really understand what hydra did to him. but bucky heard that stephen used to be a neurosurgeon, and figured that if anyone he knew could understand it, it would be stephen. so stephen agrees to try to help and asks for bucky to pass on the files for him to study. and while he can't use his hands to perform surgery or any other procedure bucky would need, he has the scientific knowledge to figure out what happened to his brain, or at least more so than the others bucky has gone to. so he pores over the documents until he has an understanding of what happened. he explained to bucky that the reason he doesn't practice surgery anymore is because of a hand injury, so he asks if he can bring a friend to help that's also a neurosurgeon but her hands can physically do what is needed. bucky agrees once he figures out that christine has known about stephen & sorcery for a while & isn't weird about enhanced people and can keep a secret. and eventually stephen & christine are able to figure everything out and help bucky be unaffected by the trigger words and aid him in memory recovery. & it's a big deal for stephen because while he can't perform surgery any more his knowledge from his years as a doctor still helped the patient with the most suffering, with the most complex problem he's ever aided. & it's huge for bucky bc he's finally free & now knows the extent of what hydra did to him and has doctors that can help him that also won't discriminate him due to being the winter soldier/being enhanced (& also dont report him if he's on the run at this time). so like he's learning how to build a relationship & trust, which we've seen was difficult for him post-tws (& who can blame him) especially during tfatws. he already knew steve from before so it was easier for him to rebuild that friendship. but with people that are new, that he didn't already have a past with, we've seen him struggle. & being stephen's patient helped him build a level of trust, and they end up seeing each other so often bc there's a lot to do & all that they start to become friends. it's huge for bucky. stephen is one of his first post-tws friends. like idk the two of them seem to have great potential as friends, i just have never seen it done.
