You know what I love most about Rey? She is fucking brutal.
I mean look at this aggression… I’m an older fan and I NEVER saw women presented like this when I was growing up, and I am so happy for all the little kids out there who get to have this
And in tfa it was this bit that got me shook
She just stalks towards him like the badass she is
Look at that face. I f**cking love it. I am so happy (and Daisy just kills it, what a star).
THIIIIIIIS.
I fucking love that she is ANGRY, that she is not PRETTY, that she is not THERE FOR THE MALE GAZE. Look at her shoulders, look at her arms, she is not twirling something or looking bitchface calm or sauntering sexily.
she is there to slash someone in the face and chew bubblegum and she is all the fuck out of bubblegum
The transwoman they had on the show was also an AIDS activist, and had AIDS herself… *and* in a time when there was MUCH greater social stigma around the disease. Lucy had her on, and kissed her on screen…during a time when people were still afraid of getting AIDS from kissing or from toilet seats.
They also had Alexis Arquette as a character on the show in a later season.
I love all the reblog facts!!!
The episode is 2×11, “Here She Comes Miss Amphipolis,” and the actress was Karen Dior.
❤ Lucy Lawless is a GIFT to our world and one of the most genuinely kind and awesome people ever ❤
Plus we could get Shuri supplying her with ridiculous gadgets, and her constantly giving reports to Okoye and the rest of the Dora Milaje, while T’Challa tries to calm his nerves and not freeze every time they do whatever Shuri’s version of Skype is.
