us against the world

It lives rent free in my head every single day of my life.

All she wanted was to be the real May.

And god, even as a literal robot, it just shows how strong May’s loyalty and love for the team is, and how far she’d go for them. Every single version of May proves that.

She means the world to me, actually.

“So pack up your car, put a hand on your heart.

Say whatever you feel, be wherever you are.

We ain’t angry at you, love.

You’re the greatest thing we’ve lost.”

Yes, she is my favourite character of all time too, and in a perfect world, I’d love to see her again.

But I fear that people are deluding themselves into thinking that all will be well and good if she comes back.

It won’t be lol.

They will ruin her character in every possible way, that is just a given. Daisy finally got her happy ending, and she’s finally free from all of the pain the show inflicted upon her. Let her live now.

If Marvel brings her back, they’ll just put her through more pain again. Or pull something like they pulled with Maria Hill in Secret Invasion. They might even erase everything her character is and stands for, including her status as an Inhuman (like what they did with Kamala) and her connection to the other AOS characters. Do y’all really want that? Seriously?

I am one of the apparently very few that wants AOS to have occurred in a different universe, genuinely that’s the best outcome to me. Because then they cannot be touched.

Both of them suffered for what happened. Both of them came out of it traumatised. Fitz was not truly in control of his actions, but Daisy’s reaction was more than valid. Real Fitz or not, he literally cut her neck open and could’ve killed her/condemned the world to being destroyed. Also, no one knew if he would have another ‘episode’ like that afterwards. The safest option for everyone was to lock him up.

Therefore, if I see anyone saying Daisy was wrong for that decision, it’s on sight atp.

Although they have very few scenes, them in early season three is so sweet. Her covering for him while he chased down Monolith leads was such an underplayed thing, yet so nice. It hints to the bond that the two clearly built up- with Bobbi being benched due to her injury and Fitz being without Jemma to bounce things off of in the lab. I like to think Bobbi stepped in for Jemma in that way. I’m sure her and Fitz both needed it at the time. I wanted more of that.

Look at her:

It’s her sudden realisation that the one thing- the only thing- that she has wanted for herself for years is being torn away from her again.

Because of course it is, just like everything else in her goddamn life.

Of course, just when she starts to hope for something, the universe steals it away from her. Because when has it not?

She almost looks betrayed- betrayed by herself if anything. Because she let her guard down, she let herself feel again, and it was all for nothing.

And the pure disbelief in her eyes, as if she can’t fathom that it’s happening again at first- genuinely the one thing she fears the most- is heartbreaking. It’s genuinely so, so shattering.

Did she do her fair share of bad things? Absolutely. She wasn’t some innocent hero with a strict set of pure morals (then again, none of the AOS characters were, and I stand by that). She lived for her and only her, and her one purpose was discovering who she really was, everyone else be damned. The world treated her horribly, so she adapted to that. After all, as far as she was concerned, why should she care about other people when they don’t care about her?

She was self-serving, manipulative and loyal to no one but herself, but I think that made for an interesting character.

Not to mention, in a way, I feel like she really redeemed herself in the end.

Like her death?

Raina’s power was literally her ability to see visions. She knew Jiaying was going to kill her on that bridge, but she also knew that Daisy would see the whole thing. Unlike what Raina is shown to be up until this point, she sacrificed herself so that Daisy would see the truth about her mother, and in turn, so would the rest of the Inhumans at Afterlife. Therefore, they’d have a chance to reverse Jiaying’s misdeeds and prevent a deadly outcome.

I think it’s really cool that in the end it’s shown that she wasn’t as selfish as everybody originally thought, and in her sacrifice, she proved said people wrong.
