Right, so I don’t have any programs to pull out the GIFs for anything from the movie and I haven’t found them online. 

But I and my fiancee were going over some lines from the Incredibles Movie and we caught something Edna said, which struck us as odd…

“Your outfit will be ready before you next assignment.”

NEXT ASSIGNMENT

How did she know he was getting missions? Mr Incredible never said he was taking missions, in fact he was denying he was even moonlighting as a hero at this point. 

Unless. 

She knew Syndrome. 

Now we know Syndrome has money, he has power, and he’s been trying to set himself up as a Hero. If he’s been using his resources to find all these heros it wouldn’t take much for him to also look up the person who was their costume designer. 

And he would very likely have approached her. After all, he’s wanting to set himself up as a hero.

Now Edna, she’s been working with heros her entire career. She knows a real hero when she sees one. And we also know she too is in a position of power and has her own resources to draw from. It stands to reason that she would very likely read Syndrome pretty easy and know that 2+2 equals fish in this case. BUT, she’s not a super herself. She’s also in hiding. If she refused to make Syndrome’s outfit for him he could very likely cause her a LOT of trouble. 

Edna can’t do much, she is not in a position to be able to tell anyone about what’s  going on, supers are not in good standing and ones disappearing, well no one is searching for them at all. What else can she do?

She can manipulate things as she sees the opportunity show itself to her.

Mr Incredible comes to her about repairing his costume. He’s obviously on Syndrome’s hit list (hell she likely got Syndrome monologuing and knows everything going on) 

She already had the outfits for the rest of his family ready before Helen even got there. 

She knew their powers. She knew the best things to say to Helen that would get her to go help her husband. 

She placed a tracking device without telling Mr Incredible in all the suits. She put that device into his suit apparently BEFORE she made the ones for his family.

She gave them the resources, put them into the path that would allow them the best chance of stopping Syndrome, because she knew this situation needed real heros. 

And she did one other thing for them. One major thing that goes against everything she is so vehemently against.

She gave Syndrome a Cape. 

I have never seen meta on The Incredibles before and I LOVE IT.

Someone needs to talk about Grif with me.

And how his mother ran away and how another parent is never mentioned and how Grif supported himself and his little sister for who knows how long.

And how Grif is uber protective of his sister not just because of some big brother thing but because she’s either barely a legal adult or a minor and she has sex with people significantly older than her.

Can we talk about how Grif got drafted while he had a dependent in high school and how he tried his absolute hardest to get kicked out so he could go home

Can we talk about his inability to hold grudges against people and how Tucker ran him over with a tank but he never brought it up again. Or how at his core he trusts his teammates to have his back even with how many times hes been shot and threatened and generally smacked around.

How about the fact that he became a sergeant over Simmons despite his professed apathy. How about the fact that his friendship with Simmons is so strong and important and well-worn and that they are so attached at the hip that they were going to be executed together despite the fact that Grif was the only one that did anything wrong.

Can we talk about the fact that Grif has survived some of the most devastating and ridiculous injuries in the show and that he has apparently survived solely because of luck and his own hearty constitution

Talk to me about how he went over the edge at the end of season 8 and purposefully made his scream get fainter and taper off like he was actually falling when he was dangling a few feet below the edge. He’s such an asshole

And can we talk about how he jumped on the meta’s back (a fucking huge growly former-freelancer) and stole his huge ass gun knife off his back? Or how he ran down Wash through a wall?

How about how he can pilot pretty much anything an is good enough at it that the others immediately and silently decide hes the most obvious option to fly a stolen Pelican to the battle

How about how he probably still has the speed unit installed. I wanna see where that goes.

And how he’s so unaggressive and lazy that Omega can’t budge him into any kind of aggression besides an aggressive nap

Tell me about his new squad and the fact that hes training them for extraction and stealth and being clever

Please, please talk to me about Minor Junior Private Dexter Grif, Negative First Class

okay, okay, hear me out:

what if the boy who lived was the girl who lived? scruffy tomboy harriet “call me Harry” potter, getting extra rubbish from the Dursleys both from being a girl and being the wrong kind of girl

and absolutely nothing in the entire 7-book series changes except for pronouns. because girls can be brave and imperfect and angry and sulky and loud just like boys can.

(except a girl harry would room with Hermione Granger and the Patil twins instead of Ron and Sean, but that’s literally the only thing I can think of that might change)

WHAT ABOUT GINNY

absolutely nothing whatsoever changes with regards to Ginny. except that in addition to “why doesn’t Harry notice me as more than a chum,” she grumbles, “why hasn’t Harry managed to realize that CHO IS STRAIGHT”

IF this becomes a popular text post, this is how I want to be remembered
