nebula

So I recently saw GOTG Vol 2 for the second time and I wanted to know what you thought about the scene where Gamora yells “PETER” and then Nebula lands there and they stare at each other. The first time, I was a bit annoyed that Gamora was yelling for Peter and not Nebula. Now I’m wondering if it’s because she’s achieved some sort of resolution with Nebula by that point in the movie whereas she hasn’t with Peter? Your thoughts? -xingshining

I actually reckon it’s more in-character for her to yell out for Peter. Her feelings for Nebula are so, so complicated, but she did hate her, like she says at the beginning, not so long ago. Whereas Peter, whether she loves him romantically or not, he’s very dear to her and his death would absolutely shatter her.

But the way she does look at Nebula when she lands, I kinda of read as her thinking something like “This is the most terrible thing I can think of, but I am glad you’re alive.”

Hey so your most recent fic on ao3 has me low-key shipping Nebula and Mantis and i don’t know what to do? You’re a really great writer :) -silentgirlspeaksout

Aww thank you! Very much! :D

I loved that little bit of the fic. I think they’d be good for each other, because someone as non-judgemental and accepting as Mantis is is just what Nebula needs in this point of her life, really. God knows, it’ll probably never be canon, but it’s one of my favourite little rarepairs at the moment. c:

So, Guardians of the Galaxy 2 kind of maybe owns my soul a little bit now? Here’s a fanfic filling in some blanks.

Title: Goodnight
Fandom: Guardians of the Galaxy
Rating: PG13 maybe? There’s nothing in here worse than in the movie
Summary:

“And Darth Vader… I suppose he can’t stand the idea of a world where people like him and the Emperor live and people like Luke Skywalker die. So he picks up the Emperor and kills him, so that Luke can survive, even though it kills him too. And all these little teddy bear things that live on the moon below the Emperor’s Death Star, I forgot to mention all of that, they have a big party with fireworks and stuff.”

Peter and his family before, during and after the funeral.
