The Vampire Diaries

The Vampire Diaries

Random fan: Oh. my. gosh. I hate it when people say Vampire Diaries and Twilight are the same thing! *scoffs lightly while draining Starbucks cup*

Me, barely looking up from my book: Hm, let's see. We have our token helpless human girl that's pretty much useless, two smoking hotties obsessed/in love with said girl, side female characters that may or may not be in love with one of the hotties. Did I mention some strange paranormal psychopath is almost always after the human girl for whatever reason?

Random fan: ... But other than that they have nothing in common, right?!

Me, looks at the camera zooming in on my face: Sure, Jess. Sure.

So did Peggy Carter name S.H.I.E.L.D. shield because Steve was everyone's shield and she wanted them to remember that?

The Avengers Headcanon #1

Okay, but, imagine Steve going to Avengers' Movie Night thinking they were going to watch something chill like Netflix or some shit, and instead the lights go off and all of a sudden Steve sees his old war films playing.

It took Tony a while to find the Captain America movies but it was worth it when he saw Steve's face.

Don't take crap from others

Recognize abusers for what they are

Provide sanctuary for those that need it

Honor those that have died from oppression

Arson 😀

Donate to the needy

And so much more!!!!

Maybe an obvious reminder but you don't have to feel guilty when you don't have anything to offer to your Deities in return for help.

In the same way you don't have to repay someone for doing you a favor out of their heart's desire - and don't have to feel bad if you cannot return their kindness with an equal gift back. People - and Deities - that love you understand when giving back is hard or impossible for you.

Sometimes a thank you is enough. Gratitude is enough, in whatever shape and form you can give it.

It's not transactional, it's set in mutual kindness and respect.
