there is no beauty in a world completely still

Something’s happening, isn’t it? Something more than a lacrosse game?

#ugh this awesome family #also how heroic is that shot of scott in the bottom right gif? #like in one sweep of the camera he goes from clark kent to superman

/edit: also!!

magalimoon:

#this is where scott gets it #right here #i’m always really put out by how male superhero narratives over-prioritise father-son relationships #to the exclusion and even erasure of the impact mothers have on shaping and sculpting who their sons turn out to be. #so i like that teen wolf is actually not confused at all on that front #you can see it in everything scott does just how much melissa’s shaped the man he’s becoming #melissa’s a nurse; when you’re a health professional you don’t get to choose WHO to help #you just DO - there’s no one beyond your purview bc all life is precious #and it’s your JOB to do everything in your power to preserve/help/save. #so you can see melissa’s imprint even in how scott frames his actions? #’i don’t want you to get hurt’ ‘i have to make sure people don’t get hurt’ ‘there are too many people who need me’ #scott doesn’t frame his actions as ‘heroic’ bc never in her life would melissa call what she does #in getting up every day at the crack of dawn; marching through those wards and literally saving lives heroic. #it’s no mistake that she’s NURSE - possibly one of the most thankless medical professions#even if nurses are the unsung heroes of any hospital. they do the day-to-day slogging of keeping people alive and raising their spirits w… #with little recognition or reward #and i love that it’s so clear (and it has been from s1) that this is scott’s template. #not the father who abused then abandoned him. #it’s this woman; this fucking hero who taught him his first words #that’s taught him what it means to be a human being; a person and now a creature with superpowers #IF YOU CAN DO SOMETHING TO HELP; THEN YOU DO IT.
