"Every Time Someone Steps Up And Says Who They Are The World Becomes A Better, More Interesting Place."

“Many people seem to think it foolish, even superstitious, to believe that the world could still change for the better. And it is true that in winter it is sometimes so bitingly cold that one is tempted to say, ‘What do I care if there is a summer; its warmth is no help to me now.’ Yes, evil often seems to surpass good. But then, in spite of us, and without our permission, there comes at last an end to the bitter frosts. One morning the wind turns, and there is a thaw. And so I must still have hope.”

— Vincent Van Gogh

Beth is one of the few people he could be emotionally open with, and except physical comfort from. Like when she hugged him at the shack, she was pressed against his entire back, and he didn't flinch away from her or try to pull away. And if he did, it wasn't because he didn't trust her it would be because he didn't want her to see him cry. If anyone else tried to do that at that stage of his character, I don't think he would have accepted it.

I understand why some people don't like them as a ship. The age gap is there obviously, but he never interacted with her until the prison (that I can remember). She never did anything besides being there for him or helping in any way she could.

I know she had an attitude, but who wouldn't? She watched her father die in front of her and her home be torn apart, and the only person she had left wasn't talking to her, and when he would, it was much of a conversation.

Her death hit him hard regardless, I think she was the last straw for him. Her dying was the way she did in front of him, and him not being able to do anything broke apart of him. He shut himself away from everyone, and he hurt himself because he was guilty and sad and definitely angry.

But I don't think if she had lived, they would have gotten together as fast as some think. If it had happened, it would have been a slow burn.

The point is he loved her, and she loved him. People can say they had a sibling relationship, but I have siblings, and I would never look at them the way they looked at each other.

Ok ok I'm going to rant about Daryl and Beth so buckle up.

I think Daryl always had feelings for Beth but he stayed away because of her age.

Beth most likely had feelings for him too, because no girl would just hug a man who she "barely" knows.

The heart eyes!!!!!!

The way that he softened up with her, and talked to her.

The heart eyes!!!!!

The was he gently touches her arm, when she was picking the berries.

He knew what he said was wrong, but in times of grief and heartbreak people always say things that they don't mean, it's just being human.

The heart eyes!!!!!

The soft touches on her arms and when she hurt her ankle.

The way he looked at her when she was sitting in her room at the prison, that was the look of a man in love.

The way he watched her when she was singing and playing the piano.

He would do anything to protect her, and she would have done the same.

When he said that they could stay at the funeral home.

Just everything about their relationship makes me so happy.

Bonus: Hershel liked Daryl and knew he would protect his daughters. And definitely knew that Daryl was falling for Beth, and he respected how he stayed away when she was younger.

Another Bonus: Merle would have treated Beth and Maggie like little sisters because he knew that Daryl had feelings for the blonde.

A comic (?) about my love of weird little bats for this halloween

I think Indigenous people could be brought from Earth to Pandora after the Na'vi learn about them. At first some of the Na'vi think they shouldn't bother. They are probably already poisoned by their fellow Sky people.

But when they sit and talk and show photos. They ask for more info and the research teams very guiltily give more. There's nothing but horror as they watch the same things happen to these people.

It's when they see the braids in several photos. And videos of their practices and holding each other as they do. They realize somehow they are all Eywa's people.

"Ma jake. Is this true? Do they suffer so much?"

He has to agree and hangs his head admitting he doesn't know much. He never had wanted to. He was a different person now and felt ashamed of his lack of care. More talk happens but deep down many of them know what they must do,

"Bring them here."

"What? You want more sky people??"

"No. We want Eywa's people."

When word reaches earth people are shocked. There was stories of the blue people told through TV. Suddenly the miners and military was sent back in shame. Years past and truth was learned slowly.

When the invitation was extended, people were scared. But a few agreed. About 50 at first. If it was Creator and Great Mothers will then they would go.

dark green is a nice color. underrated
