(waa-waa) “canon events”

(waa-waa) “it was supposed to happen”

(waa-FUCKING-waa) “web of fate & destiny”

BITCH.

mfs out here really blaming miles ALONE for the multiverse collapsing in on itself and for what?

“oh um. aCtUaLLy miles you saved someone else’s dad sooooo… we gotta let yours die cause canon gotta canon yk?”

BRUH.

miguel pulled a “iykyk” on miles and basically whooped his ass for not knowing. my guy just got here and you’re already mad.

the shit that pisses me off the most is this…

when miles first interacts with miguel he mentions he has some “new/fresh ideas on how to capture spot”*

*i’m paraphrasing here but yk that line was said

miguel replies by shutting down that conversation and saying “i’ll worry about spot” AND THEN PROCEEDS TO CHASE DOWN A 15YO CHILD ON ALL FOURS, LOSE A FIGHT TO HIM AND MONITOR HIS DAD TO MAKE SURE HE DIES AND MILES DOESN’T INTERFERE !!!

when the fuck was this mf gonna worry about spot???

WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT SPOT WHEN IT COMES TO THE CANON EVENT THEORY, MILES IS ONE HALF OF THE ORIGINAL ANOMALY !!!

MILES WOULD NOT BE SPIDER-MAN IF NOT FOR SPOT // ALCHAMEX BRING THAT SPIDER FROM ANOTHER DIMENSION !!!

idk why i’m so mad about this, it’s just something i’ve noticed recently that’s getting on my nerves ARGH

Me Before 'Sweet Vitriol': Harmony Cobel is an absolute trash fire of a woman and I adore her. Me After 'Sweet Vitriol': Harmony Cobel isn't nearly as fucked up as she should be. Give this woman the "Well-Adjusted Adult" award.

Aah cheng xiaoshi. Born to be the lead in a basketball sports anime, forced to be the dead wife in a time travel thriller

i have a wee theory about the whole “canon” events thingie mentioned in atsv. it’s been marinated in my mind for a while. here’s my take, yes this will include spoilers, i love this film so so much even after my fourth watch >:3

1. canon events are not set in stone. or at least in the way that miguel makes it seem.

here’s my reasoning: there are some canon events that cannot possibly be met for all variants of spider-man (eg. having a love interest, getting married, being bit by a radioactive spider) these events function better if they are understood as a mathematical formula with a quota ???

i’ll break it down like this — what each canon event has in common is the purpose and the lesson it is supposed to teach spider-man. the universe can adjust and create exceptions much easier that way, leading to why there are gaps where some universes are intact when according to miguel they should not be.

eg. finding a love interest vs an aromantic spider-person

keeping my interpretation in mind what could happen instead is that the spider-person harbours a strong platonic relationship that serves it purpose to teach the same lessons/award them with the same outcome of character development to help them on their journey. thus, meeting the quota and being recognised as a canon event, continuing their story without altering their universe.

2. not all canon events are necessary.

i think this one is pretty obvious but it has to be said. i think it makes more sense for the “universe” to be as fluid as the spider-person who exists within it. some canon events will not be necessary for their story, especially if my theory is correct and taken into account.

miguel suspiciously emphasises the importance of how these story beats creates who spiderman is …

if that is all a canon event is then there should be wiggle room or at the very least fluidity that allows more important/life altering or impactful events to occur and trivial or unnecessary situations to be optional especially if the lesson or purpose they are required to serve there is no need for them??

3. spider-man is not needed for a canon event to take place or be interrupted.

this one will take a bit more explaining so please be patient with me and of course, major major spoilers from here on out.

i’ve seen a lot of rebuttals against the “canon” events theory (and rightfully so, fuck miguel) HOWEVER.

i think we are judging him too quickly, i don’t think miguel is completely wrong but in the same way there’s no way in hell he is right either.

earth-42 is the only universe (that we know of) with no spider-man but how come it hasn’t been swallowed out of existence???

i can’t remember where i found it but when i do find the article i’ll attach it to this post but the creators of this film have hinted to miles g morales — prowler from earth-42 having a key role in the final instalment with them specifically saying “don’t judge a book by its cover…”

now we know that heroic portrayals of power exist, who’s to say that miles from earth-42 is not operating as a heroic prowler albeit with more unethical/violent methods. in that universe alternate miles has lost both a father and a police captain two canon events in one, it is possible that if the message/lesson he was intended to learn from that life event passed that the canon event was accepted …

remember it is through losing uncle ben that spider-man understands that “with great power comes great responsibility” if that lesson is learned and shapes the individual to fight crime in their own way isn’t that them being spider-man?

miles g morales was supposed to be spider-man not the miles we know from earth-1610, he may not be operating as spider-man but he has had his share of trauma and development to fulfil the quota of those necessary story beats, he is still destined to be spider-man. if those things remain intact, technically the canon is unchanged.

there are hundreds of spider people that canonically did not obtain their spider powers through being bitten but their universe still stands.

the implications of the “canon” event theory miguel presents places more importance on the trauma one has to face to become spider-man rather than the journey of healing, self discovery, identity and love that makes the hero.

ok i think that’s all ??? idk, i’ll add more things i noticed and extra points later. feel free to repost, interact with this post + gimme some of your thoughts/takes on the topic. i don’t think i’ve seen enough people discussing it so yea, i wanna create a space to uhh discuss…

anyway bye!

“There’s nothing heroic about suffering” okay but what if I suffered and I was kinda sexy with it. Like my shorts were a little too short and you could see my ass when I bent over. What then.

“MY WIFE AND I”

I watched as the sun crept behind the mountainous Alps. I rose from my chair and returned inside. The windows were still open, I loved how the cool evening breeze caressed my face. The remaining slivers of daylight cascaded through the windows and poured onto our wooden floors. I stood by the door, eyes closed, breathing deeply to savour the sweet air. When I had opened my eyes I was greeted with a kiss from my wife, she was beautiful. Her hair, a deep auburn like the Jarrah trees that surrounded our home. I cupped her face and drew her near, eyes were aglow with a sweetness only she could bring. I embraced her, as I always did. I felt her fingers dance through my hair and finally rest on my neck. I leaned forward causing our floorboards to creak. She lets out a small chortle in response. An icy gust of wind bellows from our windows, causing us to shiver. The sky, no longer cobalt fades into a midnight blue. My wife and I watched as the stars came out from behind the clouds.

context: this was a creative piece i wrote for an assessment in my creative writing unit this semester. i did a sort of portfolio project but this paragraph was among my favourites i have written. part of me wants to build on these two characters and this setting as a whole. maybe i will revisit this some other time, who knows? :)

and of course, it goes without saying. you’re more than welcome to use this as inspiration but where possible credit me if you can / please don’t outright steal or copy original works from artists or creatives alike :(

eep.

eepy little lad, is me eepy boi, is i eepiest of eep, i am lord eep, his eepiness i long to sleep but instead i am cursed to exist with permanent eep

happy pride to my favorite gif in the world
