Okay so maybe I did start a new writing while still having multiple WIP and a two-part thing for tomorrow (Hint: Who's birthday is it in Mha tomorrow?) and not having the second one done because I can't get into it. BUT it is angsty annnddd with one of my favorite characters with one of my favorite trios >:) (Hint: what is one of the angsty trios in Mha?)

Okay, so what if, the reason Snipe, Power Loader, and Ectoplasm all have masks is because:

Ectoplasm has face dysmorphia, so he has always worn a mask when working. With the mask fitting his whole vibe of his costume that I presume is based off his quirk, also could maybe be confusing to have multiple of the same looking thing.

Power Loader kind of needs to have eye covering, whether that's for digging around or just from his work. also not liking to show his face, since he always has the hair covering his eyes anyway, the mask is just an extra layer of protection.

Snipe has always wanted a mask but didn't really have a need for one, but when he meant the other two one of the pointed out that he could have one so that people couldn't see where he was aiming as easily from looking at his eyes. He got one, and then they all had masks together.

(aka Snipe only getting a mask bc of Power Loader and Ectoplasm saying he should just get one and they can all match and since Snipe loves them and is supportive, he did (it also helps))

I always get double sick, because I found out that I have COVID and Strep yesterday (Yeah, day before Halloween, I know.) and the last time I was really sick, I has Flu A and Flu B. Yeah at the same time.

You know what? I'm changing Geten's villain name (for me, I can't actually just change it lmao) but it's now Glacier. Probably not the best or original, but I think it's better than Ice Man

The reason Jeanist got so attached to Katsuki out of any of his inturns, is because he doesn't listen.

There's something about having him not listen to him, like a teenager would to their parents.

Dabi is an upside down smiler but not in a normal way or in a 'im going to pretend to do it for whatever reason' way, its in a 'if I smile normally my face will probably fall off.' way.

Okay so what I know, hawks lost his quirk (not going to say spoilers bc that happened a couple episodes ago I think.)

My question is, how did he lose it so easy? I feel like it would take more fight from the #2 hero.

With all my Batman et al. posts, I'd like to make a statement about real life vigilante justice.

Gonna cut it for heavy topics. I'm rambling again, but this is something I still have trouble finding the right words to explain.

I greatly admire Batman's no-killing rule because it speaks to what he knows about himself and also that he recognizes the power of a symbol.

If Batman can non-lethally take down criminals, even a corrupt police force will be expected to follow suit.

Vigilante justice inspires copycats. We're seeing it live now, with that guy who shot a Walgreens employee to "protest big pharmacy".

And that's the shit Batman's trying to prevent. The impotent copycats who want the attention without putting in tactical effort. The people who will take and twist a rule until it lets them do what they want to do.

Red Hood has rules. Red Hood kills pedophiles and people who hurt children. I can guarantee that someone in his territory is going to take that rule and use it as an excuse to shoot up a gay club. I can see his words being quoted by the person who murders an abortionist.

One man's idea of a child groomer is another man's trans child.

"We're protecting our women!" Is why Emmett Till was murdered so horrifically. The Antilynching Act that was named for him was only signed into law in 2022.

So. No killing. Because Batman knows he's not a mentally healthy person. He's come face-to-face with evil versions of himself who killed. He is allowed to safeword out of killing people. He's an intelligent person who can see what history has already taught us.

And because he doesn't kill, people are safer with him. If your loved one is having a mental health crisis, you want Batman to show up, not the cops. If you're a person of color doing pretty much anything, you would probably prefer pointy ears over "protect and serve".

Real life vigilante justice? It most often targets people who are already some sort of vulnerable minority. I just. I think it's important to acknowledge this.

Okay, getting my Asexual-spectrum Batman brainrot in some sort of order, everything is subject to being updated.

This turned out long and rambling, just the way I like it.

My main inspiration for this is a scene from the Christopher Nolan Batman trilogy, where Bruce and Alfred are discussing how to reintroduce Bruce into Gotham society. It's been awhile since I saw the film but I'm pretty sure Bruce looks at Alfred and is like, "So, what do young billionaires do that would explain vigilante injuries?" And then the scene cuts to Bruce and two foreign models swimming in a fountain at a fancy restaurant. And I'm like.

Fucking. Alfred. Suggested the himbo thing? Was this a passive-aggressive punishment for fucking off for years that went on for too long?

(I love my main man Mr. Pennyworth, I will meme that he's a saint. In reality, I think he's part of the reason the Robins keep having a terrible time passing on the mantle. I can address my grievances in another post tho.)

So I'm there, thinking about Batman and Bruce and growing up in private schools. I'm in the process of unlearning some damaging information that I was taught as "truth" from my own school days. I'm thinking of Butler Alfred, and his position as caretaker, and how he was raised, and what he would think is appropriate counsel.

When Bruce is hitting puberty and writing love poems to the tune of BeeGees songs to girls in class, how would Alfred handle that? He'd surely have a perfunctory talk with his charge about respecting women, how to be a proper gentleman, safe sex, warnings about people who are out for Bruce's heart as a way to get to his status and fortune.

But would Alfred even think to cover queerness? He surely knows of it, but he's from a generation and culture that is known for stoicism and silence. The generation where one might know a pair of "confirmed bachelors" or "spinster sisters", but one does not mention it in polite company. Perhaps he would decide to have that talk if it ever seems to be necessary.

But would Bruce ever think to ask about why he isn't as interested in sex as seemingly all the people around him? Why wouldn't he chalk that up to his massive trauma and call himself mature for it? And a number of girls would love that maturity, that Ice Prince gentility, that challenge. So he'd learn how to be charming, how to flirt. It's applied psychology to Bruce, it's masking, it's learning how to act like a "normal" human.

It's easy for me to see him continue that trend in his adult life. He is romantic and he isn't sex-repulsed; he matches the flirtation energy of someone and if they both want to have sex, they do. It's kind of fun for him, too, to learn someone's body and use his to make them feel so good.

It's just that, sex is just a mutual workout? And he legitimately enjoys doing other things together equally or more, like actual workouts or sparring or casework. Bruce will initiate sex if he picks up his partner's cues, but by the time he's comfortable enough with them to relax... He's just not in clue-finding mode. So partners become understandably annoyed. Upset. They feel like they're the ones putting in all the effort to keep the relationship alive and Bruce doesn't have the knowledge or words to explain his position.

So yeah, there are jokes about Batman being easy, jokes about his history of romantic relationships with rogues, civilians, and heroes alike. He's just doing what he thought was normal. Flirting back, following the other person's lead, matching the energy. It frustrates him when he thinks about it, because it's just another way he's Different and Broken and Missing Something that the rest of the world seems to understand on a basic level.

(To be firm: Bruce Does Not Match the energy of everyone who flirts with him. He is an adult and has his own tastes. He's got Polite Flirting, Interested Flirting, and Gray Rocking down pat.)

There is nothing that reminds me more of the beauty of Autistic Hyperfixations, than what my past week/month has been.

A long time ago, I started playing an Otome Game called Obey Me! (It's a good game, with compelling writing, and a good workaround for representing You/The Main Character). One of the characters I got very attached to was the Butler, Barbatos. His love of different teas, and the variety, and his insistence on high quality tea had me curious about it all; I much prefer a Flavoured Water of some kind, I find it generally easier to drink.

So, I looked into Tea Quality, Loose Leaf Teas; and then High Quality, Full Leaf Looseleaf teas that have no crumbs, just pure quality no-bitter aftertaste. And recently, I bought a whole lot of tea, enough to last me to the end of the year, because I have been wanting it, and I love the quality, and it's been worth saving up for it.

How does this all tie together? Well ... Since I could afford it, and I just got a whole bunch of high quality teas ... Why not buy the Obey Me! Barbatos plushie so he can enjoy my high quality teas with me?

I look forward to seeing him in June. And I'll be sure to have a nice glass of Shō Pu-er ready for him when he gets here ♥

Shout out to my 7th grade reading teacher who was the first person to ever encourage my creative writing. He took one look at a kid who was struggling to find a way to communicate how much they were suffering, took a look at a mess of a short story they'd written in an attempt to convey all their big heavy feelings, and fully embraced them.

I constantly talked to him about writing and how to get better. I showed him everything I wrote. Sometimes, it was so I could have critiques. Sometimes, it was just so someone would tell me I'd done a good job. I needed that. He gave me a healthy goal to work towards.

I wish he hadn't just been a long-term sub. I wish I could have told him that I go by something different now. I think he'd really like what I'm writing these days.

Feelin real green.

The Tumblr green text shade is a pretty good representation of me, I think. It's just toxic enough for me to think of Fallout and radioactive sludge.

The orange is good too. It isn't super bright, which I appreciate. More Halloween. Like, if I bottled up the original Halloween Town movie or a Spirit Halloween? It would be this orange.

Good shit

I need 2020 super saturated colors to make a comeback. My phones photo album was so alive back then. It still is pretty lively now, but I scroll through old photos, and it's like an explosion of color.

Or maybe I just need to pull another: live to make my photo gallery more nice to look at. I have been doing things. I just always forget to take pictures, which can make me forget that I haven't just been staring at schoolwork all month.
