Agents of B.A.R.B.I.E. -> Phil Coulson
This Barbie is losing it!
I'll call it The Jedis of March.
Let's face it, we all wish it had ended this well.
She is young; some would say very young. But the light in her eyes is mother-light all the same, purified and holy through exhaustion and pain. She forgets the pain for the joy of a man-child brought into the world, and her gaze rests on him, lying there in the straw.
He is an ordinary child with the ordinary, transcendent beauty of a newborn. The man who is not his father washed the blood from him, hands trembling and so, so careful. This Son of God is a helpless baby, but he is still God's Son.
No words can express the wonder of a birth, of nigh unendurable pain that bursts suddenly into eternal joy. The child is crying with the thin, short bursts of a one so newly born; he is healthy, flushed and swaddled well in the new cloths brought for the purpose. There is a mess nearby, but it is unimportant.
There is a commotion; shepherds, gentled by reverence, speaking in hushed tones of angels singing their praises, of a newborn king. They drop to their knees before the baby, as if no wonder in the world had ever been so mighty. And perhaps it had not.
Mary watches, and she stores up all these things in her heart. There is so much she cannot understand. Someday the whole tapestry of her son's life will be shown to her; for now, this is enough.
She gathers her boy to her, and wonders if she, too, can hear the angel's song.

sometimes a song is good because you saw it on a fan edit for your favorite ship like ten years ago
"If you use em dash in your works, it makes them look AI generated. No real human uses em dash."
Imaging thinking actual human writers are Not Real because they use... professional writing in their works.
Imagine thinking millions of people who have been using em dash way before AI becomes a thing are all robots.
obsessed with re-embodied First Age war heroes interacting with the aman-born youth
Youth: Wow, your hair is so pretty! Such a first age throwback. Could you be related to Maedhros Fëanarion? Maedhros Fëanarion: Never heard of him
Finrod Felagund: That's a cool ring, kid. Reminds me of early first age bëorian metalwork. Youth: Gee, thanks, that's exactly what I was going for! Does it make me look like King Felagund? Finrod Felagund: Absolutely. He'd be proud
Youth: Atar said you're from the first age. Did you know the sons of Fëanor? Was Celegorm hot? This blond guy the other day told me he was really hot Caranthir: Don't listen to that blond guy again. I know what he's doing
God grant me the strength to do the things I enjoy
I wanna say that every part of King of Attolia is my favorite part but possibly my favorite part is when Attolia goes “Relius. You are my oldest and most trusted advisor, who helped me keep my throne and committed your life to me. But you made a mistake, so I’m going to have to kill you.” And Relius goes “My queen, you are incredibly correct, that is 100% the right thing to do” and Gen is standing there like “wtf is wrong with you people, I thought I was the one with poor coping mechanisms”
