yknow what makes me emotional? that when Hippolyta gives Diana Antiope’s tiara she says “Make sure you are worthy of it” and Diana doesnt put it on (just like she doesnt let her hair down) up until she is going to go up the trench and like???? thats poetic cinema right fucking there my guys, Diana put on the tiara because she is basically the product of Hippolyta’s righteousness and Antiope’s fearlessness in battle, she put on the tiara because she feels like helping humanity and saving these people makes her worthy of it. 

finally a powerful woman is powerful because of the *love women have given her* and the things women have taught her – after freaking decades of “i was raised by a single father and 15 rowdy brothers!” and other narrative conceits entered on men being the explanation for a woman’s power

“I was raised by my 700 warrior mothers” is a much better narrative.

When Eugene Brave Rock’s character Chief introduces himself to Diana in Wonder Woman, in Blackfoot he says that his name is actually Napi. Kind of ironically, Napi is actually a Blackfoot demi-god trickster and storyteller, which kind of sort of fits with Chief/Napi’s role in the story as a goodhearted smuggler, as well as a slight tip of the hat to Diana’s true nature as well.

Given how the DCEU has been more open in its embracing the kitchen sink nature of its setting than over in the MCU, I guess it’s possible that Napi could be THE Napi… But it’s more likely that he’s named for the demi-god instead.

…Though it would be a means to get Eugene Brave Rock to come back for future stories… Hm…

I’m here for Chief being the real Napi in disguise, and Diana having a century-long friendship with another demi-god. The two of them get together a few times a decade to catch up and remember their mortal compatriots.
