Yo are we doing ship dynamic stuff again? I dig this very specific tragic dynamic

Wait I have one more incredibly specific ship dynamic I love

So what I wanna talk about is THIS SCENE and how it hurts me. context: Rich is in therapy, recalling a rather heartbreaking moment he and Gamora had over the loss of Peter Quill. It could easily be platonic but imo, the panels before and after the confession prove otherwise.

but WAS quill home? this is a couple panels we get in issue 1 during the bbq scene. "Are you trying to convince me? or..." the thing about quill is, he's made several attempts at a normal family life. They never take. Someone like him doesn't have it in him to retire

all the emotions and everything were complicated and nobody was at fault. it just...is? These two have a bond since the first war they were in together, and I don't think that's going away. i really love how ewing is bringing back all of these scenes they shared in annihilation
