wolverine will likely be in weapon x during apocalypse since there’s no word of hugh returning for this film, so scott/jean which is just as ew

look near the yellow box on the tv stand

I must admit it came as a surprise to me initially. Such a pairing is not unheard of, and so there was no reason to not believe it. However, it raised the question in my mind as to whether Isabel and this woman are meant as platonic soulmates or romantic ones. I suppose that is a question that arises in any predetermined pairing. However, platonic soulmates are a much rarer occurrence, and I personally do not know how it might work if someone was aligned with a person as a romantic soulmate who did not meet their preferences.

In any case, I am simply waiting to find out who this woman truly is. It will be a bit strange if they are romantic soulmates, since I hardly know of any cases like this. But if that is how things work out, I know they cannot be even close to the first pairing. Most of all I hope this other woman is someone who will prove worth my daughter’s time, whether she is to become her best friend or her wife.

First and foremost, Isabel loved to read. No matter where she might disappear to when I tried to find her, she always turned up somewhere with a book in her hands. I can’t complain about that, of course. Most parents dream of their children getting into trouble and wandering off because they were reading rather than something much more raucous.

But while she wasn’t the child who tried a bunch of different hobbies only to drop each one after a few days, she did pick up several endeavors. One of her favorite activities was learning to play the piano. She continued her lessons all the way through high school, and I am fairly confident she can still play well. Despite the looks she gave me when I informed everyone of her lessons and got her to play something at the holidays, her lack of complaining and the enthusiasm of her playing made it pretty clear she truly liked to play pieces (though perhaps it was more fun when her mother wasn’t making her do so).

Aside from that, she really liked putting on little plays. Most of these comprised of her dancing around and telling stories as we sat outside on nice days. However, on occasion she’d write lines - she always enjoyed organization - and do a damn good job of smiling her way into getting everyone around to join in her productions.

fun fact: this is the first time since 2000 that no PoC were nominated for an actor/actress oscar. YOUR RACISM IS SHOWING ACADEMY
