i want to- *remembers suicide jokes only worsen my mental health* kill someone else

you read stuff on wattpad for shit and giggles where most of the fics there are reader-inserted ones written in 1st person pov where y/n is a barely legal white girl with blonde hair and blue “orbs” who’s so smol and fragile that she’s dependent entirely on this morally questionable guy who’s killing people for a living but for some reason happens to have a soft spot for her.

you read real actual literature on archive of our own where it’s two middle aged men, who are each other’s sworn enemies, with tragic past, trauma and strong homoerotic tension. and while they’ve made each other bleed, killed each other’s friends and loved ones out of jealousy / possessiveness, lied and betrayed and manipulated, the rawness, depth, complexity and slow burn will keep you up all night, haunt you during your day and possibly change your life forever. and also the sex isn’t just smut. the sex is poetry that puts Shakespeare to shame

Bro was about to summon Mahoraga at the first episode lol, my boy was done with life from the start.

The tragedy of my life is that I keep acquiring and displaying fetish art and having to be corrected by my friends.

Most recently, a friend came over my house and saw my computer background and went, "Wow, um, I didn't know you were into that." To which I look at the picture of the well drawn muscular female minotaur in historically accurate Greek clothing and I start geeking out about how I love the detail the artist did with the clothing and I point out the period appropriate folds and pins, how the artist even inserted the native plant that was used to dye the clothing this particular shade in the background, and even how the belt has technology AND historically accurate weaving patterns on it.

Then I start explaining how I love the muscular choices of the minotaur, that I was so impressed with the artist's anatomically correct depiction of the muscles converging into the neck. That many people get an upright cow's neck wrong because cow's don't have collarbones, so it can be very difficult to merge the upper arms and a chest of a human with a cow's body. I draw her attention to the beautiful way they've merged the pectoralis major so smoothly while also staying true to how muscular they've depicted the rest of the body.

I finish up with my thoughts on the artist's bold choice to depict the minotaur as a female, and despite the underlying themes of a minotaur being violence, child murder, strength, and muscles. I segue into how unlike bulls, cow are perceived as mothers. That they are the major source of milk in human culture, and that idyllic depictions of them in a field usually depict calves frolicking nearby, yet the minotaur kills and eats children.

I finish and there is a long pause.

"Urban, this is fetish art." and she takes me to the artist's twitter and god dammit it's fetish art, not a bold statement on cultural perceptions of women and violence throughout history. I have been tricked again.

Skibidi die.

I’ve been drawing hurt no comfort disaster twins Lmao here’s a sweet childhood memory

Leo was a late bloomer and didn’t say his first words until he was like four even then he would only speak Japanese until he was like six.

My favorite thing about J. Jonah Jameson is that he just hates Spider-Man. He supports mutants and doesn't hate enhanced people. He's not racist, sexist, homophobic, or transphobic. He just hates Spider-Man. And I'm half convinced that he's faking for the publicity.

He'd probably get pissed if he hears someone hating on Spider-Man for being enhanced.

"Spiderman isn't a menace because he can climb walls! He's a menace because he's climbing walls without a license or safety equipment! He's setting a bad example!"

"I just want you to know that you that your identity as an enhanced person is valid. Your identity as Spiderman is trash."

Get back up again.

A group of rough looking boys walked past me today and all I heard of their conversation was “he’s got that anxiety disorder bro so I went with him so he’d be more comfortable” and it made me realise the world isn’t all that bad

Here’s how I want robin in the next battinson movie:

The very first scene is Bruce and tiny Dick Grayson sitting across from each other at the dining table, staring each other down in silence, both clearly grumpy about it. Alfred is in the background watching them with concern. The silence lasts about 20 seconds before Dick speaks.

“Let me fight crime.” (said with all the petulance of a pouty 10 year old)

Bruce replies immediately. “No.” (this is clearly an ongoing argument)

Immediately cut to the next scene where Dick, wearing the iconic Robin suit, is having the time of his life swinging across the city while Bruce frantically tries to keep up with him while yelling at him to be careful like an anxious mother

Apparently Miles is a JJK fan (in the comics)

If you put these two in a room together I think the result would be adorable 🥺

cozy lil cafe :3

yes, percy rose through the ranks of new rome disturbingly fast. no, jason did not do the same at camp half blood. yes, percy's rise to leadership at both camps took about two weeks and was completely unplanned. no, the same cannot be said for jason. his rise was carefully planned and took over a decade. they're both children of the big three, but where percy thrums with raw power, jason is a sword honed by zeus and hera. where percy is a survivor, jason is a weapon. where percy is a cycle breaker, jason can't get out. jason's fatal flaw was temptation to deliberate because he never managed to make his own choices. he was every classic definition of a hero rolled into one, and he never questioned it because his happiness came after the responsibility. jason was never going to ascend as fast as percy because jason was raised on hard work and discipline while percy, an abuse survivor and child of poverty, knew when to fight dirty. where jason was a transplant, percy was an invasive species. jason was always going to die because he was never more than a tool for the gods to throw away when he outlived his usefulness, or when he started to question his place. if someone as locked down as jason can question the system, anyone can. now that luke has put thoughts of overthrow in everyone's heads, zeus has to be very careful because while jason was expendable as his weapon, percy was unexpected in every way. zeus has no plan for him. when percy dies, he will become a martyr, so he can't die, except now everyone knows that percy doesn't want to be a god either. jason had to die, and now percy has to live.

Ruffnut, gesturing to Hiccup: Tuff, look what you did! You made Mom upset!

Tuffnut: I’m sorry Mom... :(

Hiccup, near tears: I DON’T REMEMBER GIVING BIRTH TO NEITHER OF YOU!

prometheus: hot take,

the greek gods: no give that back

thinking about that one wordless calvin and hobbes sunday strip thats just calvins dad ditching his work to go play in the snow... its going to make me cry

when you think about it no wonder they called lucy the valiant, and i don't mean because she went to war. i mean because after the wars were over, she was the one on the battlefield, cordial in hand, tending to the dead and dying. she was the one with so many lives in her hands. she was the one having to make the call about who was gravely injured enough to be healed and who would keep suffering. lucy the valiant. lucy of the fire flowers. lucy of the healing hands. the queen who walked among the dying and tried to bring them back to life. how much must that wear on a person? on a little girl?

really, do you think peter's decree not to carry it into battle often was to spare the cordial, or to spare his sister?

i’m fully convinced that inumaki is the funniest mf in the world but just can’t show it because he can only speak in onigiri ingredients

so then in person he tries to make onigiri ingredients sound like brainrot jokes like imagine you ask him smth and he’s like “they tuna on my mayo till i onigiri” then just walks away and you’re standing there trying to decipher it

imagine the current state of the youth and then make it actually funny and you’ve got toge inumaki right here

also he’d definitely be a sucker for every single catchphrase that comes out on tt like catch him scrambling for paper when you annoy him the slightest bit just so he can write out “see how i shut the fuck up? very demure, very mindful” and you have to remind him that he doesn’t have a choice and has to stay silent most the time

This is Finley Jans who ended up losing his hearing while working a job in the dungeon. Finley To scared to move forward safely or to tell his party about his hear worried they would abandon him in the dungeon he ends up shutting down until he meets Chilchuck "im your dad now" Tims who comes to his aid. When chilchuck finds out he 14 (baby adult dont know jack) has no family he takes him home. teaches him dwarf asl

I had fun creating Finley's charater with @lelslizzylebs

Finley lives with them for like year and a half and ends up befriending chilchucks Youngest and most chaotic daughter Puckpattie who learns asl with Finley. and so far the only people who know asl is chill's family, so Finley tends to keep with them the most

I really like your modern ATLA takes and art :) I was wondering how the circumstances of Yue's passing change in a modern au since I imagine she doesn't give her life back to the Moon Spirit.

thank you! over the years my own personal modern au has kind of just developed a life & lore of its own. you can go thru my modern au tag for some of that lore, but i’ll also rehash the saga of yue here, because if i’m being completely honest, her life & death was the initial foundation upon which this AU was conceived. i just love yue a lot.

yue meets sokka on the first day of fifth grade. he’s still pretty raw from the death of his mother that summer. it’s her first day of “real” school, since she was homeschooled as a kid due to her chronic illness that made her parents extremely overprotective. she was finally able to argue with them that she was well enough to go to school, but really it’s just because she got bad vibes from the tutors her father picked out for her. she still keeps to herself and doesn’t make many friends. aside from sokka, of course. they immediately get along, and are attached at the hip from that moment forward.

for years, katara likes to joke that yue is sokka’s girlfriend (a hilarious joke specifically because it’s so obvious that she’s way too pretty to ever date him) until yue shyly asks him out For Real. they go to the library, a thing they have done together a million times before, but this time they’re going to The Library on a Date, and they’re both extremely nervous. until they realize that they’re both nervous, at which point they start laughing over the absurdity of their mutual nerves. nothing much changes about their dynamic after that except for the fact that they occasionally hold hands and kiss.

yue spends a lot of time at home, or she’ll go to school and then realize that she’s not actually well enough to be at school, at which point sokka will notice and insist on walking her home (during the middle of the day, which his teachers just love, of course). he always brings her whatever homework she’s missed when she’s absent, and then if she’s feeling up for it, they’ll sit in her bed together and just listen to music or read or talk – whatever she has the capacity to do that day. they are just happy to spend time in each other’s company.

they enter highschool together and sokka is like “i can’t believe we’re literally adults now” and yue is torn between being like “um. i don’t think we are, actually?” and feeling one million years old (pain ages you). sokka has a whole plan mapped out for their futures together: they’ll go to the same college, and then the same grad schools. they’ll be lab partners somehow, even though they’re both interested in different fields. sokka will finally solve GUT, and yue will singlehandedly cure her own illness (and all other illnesses) through the power of her research. they will win nobel prizes in the same year and they’ll be displayed on one of the shelves of their expansive home library.

yue’s a little more realistic about her own physical limitations (although she doesn’t actually doubt that sokka could win a nobel if he set his mind to it) but she still lets herself indulge in the fantasy of getting a little house with a vegetable garden and having two kids (both daughters of course. no sons!) and after that discussion (which sort of just makes official what they’ve both personally agreed on since they first met), they’re both in perfect agreement that no matter what happens to them, they are life partners. aang has already long called being the best man at their wedding. katara and toph fight over who will get to be the maid of honor, but sokka and yue quietly suspect that they don’t really care all that much, and it’s just an excuse for them to fight.

yue and sokka mainly keep to themselves in high school, and don’t have many friends outside of each other. they’re friends with katara, aang, and toph, but they’ve all yet to enter high school, so they can’t exactly see them in the halls. yue sits next to a kid with a giant bandage over one eye in her english class, and they bond over making snarky comments about the quality of the books they’re being forced to read, but even he gets kind of exasperated by the frequency with which she talks about her beloved boyfriend. (“my boyfriend gave me this rock he found in the park. isn’t it amazing?" she eagerly asks him, and it's literally the most normal rock you've ever seen.)

(it takes zuko years to make the connection that yue’s precious boyfriend from her stories is the same guy who azula considers her academic rival and is definitely obsessed with to an unhealthy degree. zuko’s just like “why is literally everyone so obsessed with this guy??” and then he meets sokka and immediately becomes obsessed with him, so, well. fuck.)

a few weeks after yue’s sixteenth birthday, sokka is walking her back home from his house one evening, when it starts to rain. yue suggests that they go back to his house to grab an umbrella (really, she just wants an excuse to stay out longer. her father has been inviting hahn over more and more often lately, and she fucking hates hahn) but sokka argues that they’re already more than halfway of the way there to her house, so it’s completely illogical to head back to get an umbrella when it would be faster just to continue walking. his logic is correct, and it’s already getting pretty late, so yue acquiesces. sokka will regret not going back for an umbrella for the rest of his life.

it’s at that hour between night and day where it’s just too dark to see clearly, but a driver could easily neglect to turn on their headlights. between that and the rain making the roads slippery, there isn’t enough time for them to run out of the way when a car skids into them. on instinct, sokka shields her with his body, but she still falls and hits the ground really hard. even though sokka is the one who was hit by the full force of the car, the impact of it is devastating for her. the driver calls an ambulance while sokka holds her in his arms, but by the time the ambulance arrives, it’s too late. they can’t save her. he couldn’t protect her.

sokka spends the next month refusing to get out of bed. it’s the second hardest month of katara’s life. on the day of her funeral, he climbs up onto the roof of her house with the first bottle of liquor he could find in her parents’ cupboard. he spends hours on her roof, just drinking in silence and thinking about how he failed her, how if he’d just been better, then his life would still have meaning. it’s his fault, really. sokka will later insist that he fell, but katara can see right through him. he breaks his leg from the fall.

eventually he returns to school, hobbling in on his crutches. he was always a smart kid, but kind of a lazy student. everyone expects his grades to plummet, but now that he has no distractions (and in fact is in desperate need of a distraction) he becomes an insatiable overachiever. instead of just doing crosswords during math class, he takes tests to place out of high school math and starts taking math classes at the local college instead. he wins his regional science olympiad. he starts tutoring half the school. anything to fill any and all of his spare time.

he never really stops being an academic overachiever (and once he and mai become college roommates, he infects her with his crazy pretty quickly, although eventually she drops out of their grad school program because she realizes she doesn’t actually wanna be an academic, and that her real dream is to be an indie horror game developer). he also never stops insisting that he “doesn’t do relationships” (a lot of people just assume that he’s a fuckboy, and he does nothing to dispel that notion) even though whatever he and suki have going on is clearly a relationship of a kind. he has one million hobbies, and he never sleeps. he spirals every time he’s forced to be alone with his thoughts. but if he just keeps moving, and achieving, and proving his value, then maybe he’ll forget for a moment that his life has long since lost its purpose.

he never truly gets over her. how could he?

Dick Grayson's unmatched success as a child vigilante makes a lot more sense when you remember the Court of Owls was a thing and that Dick was meant to be the next Grey Son.

There is no way that someone at Haly's Circus wasn't there keeping an eye on him while he grew up. A future weapon needs to be trained and monitored after all, and a circus, a place where weird skills are completely normal, is actually a great place to secretly train a child.

You know, just some knife tricks that translated really well into actual fighting. How to get out of restraints and pick locks while under a time limit. Death defying acrobatic stunts that coincidentally do wonders for parkouring. That sort of thing. Nothing that seems out of place for a boy growing up around circus performers to learn, but would literally any where else.

I mean, while I fully believe that most kids would want to kill the man responsible for their parents deaths, Dick was weirdly prepared to go through it. He tracked down Zucco with way more ease than any normal child should have too. He became the first child vigilante, for goodness sake. The first Robin! He only started getting formal training after he basically forced Bruce into it!

Bruce himself has no idea that this kind of competency in a child is unusual, considering he was much too blinded by the similarities between his and Dick's tragic orphanhoods.

Alfred is in a similar boat because he’s desensitized to weird children after he somehow managed to successfully raise Bruce 'The Batman' Wayne, so he doesn't clock the hyper-competency as abnormal either.

By the time the other batkids start popping up (Jason 'The Audacity' Todd, borderline-street rat with no fear) (Tim 'the greatest stalker in Gotham history' Drake, child genius, also bullied his way into becoming Robin) (Barbara 'raised by the only uncorrupt cop in gotham' Gordon) (Stephanie 'daddy issues and spite' Brown) (Duke 'Pretends he's the normal one and people believe him' Thomas) it's too late.

It would also explain how Dick got along so well with Damian out of all of them. Similar childhood with different approaches and all that. On some subconscious level, Dick recognises and resonates with the murderous ten year old assassin with strong familial ties to a secret elite assassin organization.

It isn't until after the whole Court of Owls and Grey Son reveal that suddenly Dick realises a whole lot of things about his childhood that suddenly make a lot more sense.

That infamous prison escape.

ARE YOU SHITTING ME
