Israeli occupation forces shot Palestinian child Mohammad Hamayel during protests against land theft in Beita. The bullet hit his spleen & other shrapnel in his waist. He was transferred to the ICU, later released.
I love Nat, and I’ve cosplayed every other original Avenger, and a few others, so it was time for my first genderbend cosplay on Black Widow movie day! What do you think? It’s a bit of a work in progress , photos and edits by me
headcanon that Nat’s favorite but most painful holiday is Christmas. She‘s always just wanted a family, but somehow it’s never worked out. For those few years in Ohio she had her family and she got to buy presents for her sister and decorate the tree with her dad and make cookies with her mom. But that was all fake. And in the back of her mind she knew it wasn’t real so she could never fully relax and let herself enjoy Christmas.
and in the red room of course she didn’t have any Christmases or anything close to a family. She would be on a mission in December and look in the lighted windows of homes and see families decorating Christmas trees and making gingerbread houses and wrapping presents for each other. and for a moment she wanted that so badly she couldn’t think about anything else.
But then she would shake herself and go back to her mission.
so Nat was scared for that first Christmas in avengers tower. She was scared it wouldn’t be like everything she dreamed. She was scared the people who were quickly becoming her family wouldn’t be enough. she was scared she didn’t know how to do Christmas.
but the moment on December 1 when Nat went shopping for presents for the avengers it started to feel real. And the moment on December 15 when Peter, her spider baby, ran up to her and asked her excitedly if she wanted to bake cookies with the rest of the team it started to feel like home. And the moment on Christmas when everyone woke up early and opened their presents and laughed together and hugged each other it started to feel like family.
Nat looked around and realized she finally had a family.
I would say a Black Widow sketch is likely, and the trailer debuting before that is a near-certainty.
My consistent bet for the trailer has been it would drop on December 5 (I made myself charts to figure it out!), but rumors on Twitter are currently December 3, which I certainly would not complain about.
I haven’t figured out how to emotionally prepare myself, but I am definitely taking suggestions.
Today was apparently the Black Widow wrap party, and if you have Instagram, check out the new cast members’ instagrams, and you can see them getting ready.
Based on those, let’s add Zhané Samuels,Fatou Bah,Shawarah Battles, and Fiona Michelle to the list of women who are in the cast or at least attended the wrap party. (If anyone caught someone I missed someone on Instagram stories, let me know and I’ll add to this post!)
I mean, on the one hand there’s some lovely parallelism in Natasha’s first supporting appearance being in an Iron Man film and Tony/RDJ returning the gesture.
On the other hand, why.
Seriously: Do we think it’s a flashback? Nat observing things pre-IM2? Flashbacks TO IM2? Something between the movies? Learning that even if Steve and Tony weren’t in touch between Civil War and Endgame, Tony and Nat were? Or something in the afterlife?
Talk this through with me, I don’t know what emotions to have.
Please Oh please Oh please, Marvel, do not make Nat’s movie about Tony.
One thing I can promise: if they Civil War the Black Widow movie, you will hear my reaction from SPACE.
