cis men do not like it when you call their star wars memorabilia 'cute'. like im sorry your death star egg timer that makes an explosion sound instead of a ding is cute. that's what it is. you don't need to pretend its not. take my hand. come with me
One funny thing to me about across the spiderverse was that like. You KNOW Hobie doesn't fuck with cops. You KNOW he was standing there like chewing on the inside of his cheek Not saying anything really really insensitive about Miles' dad. Spider-punk went the whole film without oinking at anybody I think his restraint is commendable
i will never shut up about this

Soren tries to fall off of the Storm Spire. Which is where Viren died the first time.
Something about how Viren met his doom there because he was so focused on gaining power. He was perpetuating the cycle of violence. He was using people as his pawns, manipulating them, and being manipulated and used as a pawn in return.
On the opposite side of that, Soren broke free. He broke free from his father’s manipulation. He broke from the cycle of violence and abuse. He helps others and lets them help him.
(The rest is under the cut because this got out of hand)
Rayla literally shoves Viren off of the mountain. But she gets rescued because she broke from the cycle.
Viren falls. There’s nobody there to catch him.
Soren is chasing after Claudia. Somebody he has always chased after, when given the opportunity. “How easily he’d chosen to chase the dark instead when he’d found his sister still lurking there” and all that. He admits that in the moment on the Storm Spire in season 7 he’s not sure if he’s chasing her in an attempt to harm her or what.
But regardless, Soren is not alone. He has people who care about him. He has Corvus. Somebody he’s not afraid to rely on, lean on, ask for help. He doesn’t have to use people to help him, like Viren did.
Corvus and Soren at the beginning of S7E2:
“If you were in trouble, why wouldn’t you just yell, ‘help me!’”
“That could be anyone asking for help. The whole point is that if you hear ‘rickety snickers,’ you’ll know it’s me. And it’s serious.”
And what does Soren shout later on in that episode? “Rickety snickers.”
And who is the first person to show up to help?
Corvus.
Something about how Soren could so easily have ended up like Viren. Alone, falling off the side of a mountain. But instead, Soren changed over those past years. He grew into a better person. He trusts those around him. He believes someone will have his back, even without turning around to check.
“I got you.” “I know.” Actually sums up Soren’s character growth quite well.
