Mantis and Mary Poppins
guardians of the galaxy
“i’m mary poppins, y’all!”
a commission of yondu udonta for @thats-my-bread-and-butter !!! thank you buddy :D
I think one of the reasons I like Yondu so much is because his redemption was done so well and I think one of the reasons it works is because he’s a character that could be redeemed. He also admits he messed up. He tells Rocket that he was ‘greedy and stupid’ when it came to delivering Ego’s children to him. Now a cold hearted asshole would have just turned Peter over and taken the money. The Ravagers had already exiled him so what more could he lose? But instead, he keeps Peter. Yondu even admits to Peter that he wasn’t the best father too.
The reason his redemption works so damn well is that he doesn’t think he deserves it and is fine with losing his life to save Peter. That makes a good character. That makes a redemption worthwhile.
When your space-dad lowkey likes your tunes….
a cute doodle based off an adorable fic written by @gotgfics go love them!!
Okay, but Yondu putting the space mask on Peter at the end of GotG2, all the while remembering how he’d come rushing to save Peter in the first movie, after Peter took off his mask to save Gamora and almost suffocated in space. He saved his son from dying in space once, he was damn well gonna do it again. -forlorn-kumquat
;-;
(But I wonder, if he saw Peter doing that to save a woman he barely knew and was proud, even though he couldn’t show it. If he actually learned from Peter without even realizing it.)
