the thing about the mummy movies is that you really spend most of the time thinking "wow brendan fraser's character is so cool" or "man oded fehr is so mysterious and heroic" when the fact of the matter is that these two
are the absolute most batshit insane heroes in the entire franchise
these two are intellectual loner siblings with archeology backgrounds who read and speak ancient egyptian, hire a dude directly out of prison to take them to a lost city of gold, and fight mummies literally with their bare hands. twice.
no one in these movies stands a chance against the carnahans. frankly they're lethal in how willing they are to make the absolute and most undeniably deranged decisions. jonathan pickpockets a dude on fire. evy's resurrected from the dead and immediately remembers how to use sai. they're racking shotguns from a cliff in this scene and then proceed to blow away half the antagonists.
rick and ardeth should be so lucky
Read the rest of The Old Guard comics... gotta say... the one with Nicky and Joe in Berlin not only had the best art but was terrific.
But my favorite part is-
Nicky really said:
Incurable romantic. ;w;
Nicky really thought they were about to cause an incident while Joe was like 🥺 👉👈 moonlight dance with my love? Kiss under the stars in the garden??
(technically it was Germany in the 1930s so it could have caused an incident regardless...)
Anyways now I imagine Joe v Nicky like this when they first stopped killing each other & started to like each other instead.

dbd headcanon: the boys have a list of office rules written out on a poster sheet hung on the wall. surprisingly enough, the rules were started, and most were created by, charles, but they have to be agreed on by both of the boys before becoming an official office rule (that's rule #4)
the rules date back to the beginning of their old/first office and moved with them to their current office.
dead boy detectives office rule #1 clearly states "edwin cannot suggest charles would be better off moving on" in charles' chicken scratch handwriting.
the rest of the rules are a bit of everything, ranging from "charles must disclose when he's been hit with iron in any form" to "there is no bubblegum incident of 04" and "edwin has to let charles mess with one ouija board per month." there are (currently) 46 office rules.
edwin takes these rules very seriously and will reference them whenever he chooses ("charles you're clearly in violation of rule 29 which states a ban on tommy gottas." "tamagotchis, eds.") but in taking them very seriously and to the book, he realizes he can't enforce them on crystal seeing as she's not a dead boy. he's still working on a solution to that.
but, as of late, charles has a second (secret) rules list, just for crystal. alive girl psychic rule #1 states that she can't inform edwin of this list's existance. rule #2 states that she cant respond to anything edwin says with "kinky"

@dbdhypetrain YOU MADE MY DAY PLEASE
You know what? There are so many reasons I love a demiromantic/demisexual Q. So many reasons why that characterization detail works for me and resonates with me personally.
But also? I am kinda just in it for Q falling in love for the first time when he's in his 30s.
I'm kinda in it for Q having a crush on someone/being horny for someone for the FIRST TIME at the ripe old age of 32, after a lifetime BLISSFULLY free of such nonsense.
He got through his ENTIRE education, including MULTIPLE graduate degrees without even a STIRRING of attraction to anybody. He progressed rapidly in his career because he was not DISTRACTED by such things!
And now? The indignity?? The mortifying ordeal of falling in love??? The humiliation of finding himself HORNY for a fellow human being???
I just like to think about Q contently shaping his life around his work and his cats, never feeling sexual or romantic attraction or WANTING to feel it, comfortably single and content to remain so.
And then Bond enters his life like a wrecking ball.
And six months into their friendship, Q is placidly sipping his cup of tea one morning, thinking about Bond.
And suddenly he freezes and goes, Oh no.
