Marvel comics

I’m not gonna lie…

the lighting is quite shit so I decided to brighten it a bit... and....

Yelena is Bob's emotional support human. Her word is law and if she says the darkness can get lighter if they help eachother, then it can.

Bob is Yelena's little brother. He is someone to care for and to make her feel human again, a person who needs her help and love.

And, for Yelena, there probably is a bit of projecting because of Natasha. But Bob probably also projects a bit because he never had someone love him the way Yelena, and the whole team itself, now does. Both on a more subconsious level cause they probably don't realize it, but its there.

John: Not everyone likes Bob.

Yelena: Who doesn’t like Bob?

John: well…

“who the fuck is that”

“bob”

“why is he here”

but how the final climax was quiet. the darkest shadow, a void falling over new york. it wasn't loud, there wasn't any screaming. it descended upon the city and the people didn't have a chance to react before it swallowed them whole.

how the team's battle was internal, inside their own minds, instead of a huge punchy shoot-off. (especially with this group's skill set, it was unexpected) how they all fought through the shame and guilt and their worst nightmares only to embrace each other anyway. the villain fighting against himself only to realize he is allowed to be loved, despite it all.

how they are all fucked up and have done terrible things but saved the city by holding each other tightly, so tightly that bob realizes the void isn't all he is, and light always comes again.
