Star Wars meets DC. I give you Grand Inquisitor; Tim Drake WIP

[ghostofthefourforest]

"He's from another world. Alternate reality or something. His world is gone and Justice League saved him. Mr. Wayne found out, and now he won't let go."

"You don't really think anyone will believe this nonsense, do you Mr. Pennyworth?"

"The ones who knows this family certainly won't Mr. Fox."

Petition to combine the ridiculous soap opera nature of comic books with the ridiculous nature of soap operas, and instead of always just having Jason being legally dead post his return, just fucking lean into the most ridiculous resurrection stories possible.

“This is my son, Jason Todd, formerly presumed dead, but in actuality he fell and hit his head and got amnesia and spent the next several years working at a ski lodge in the Swiss Alps where he eventually worked his way up to being an instructor and thus met his sister Cassandra when she and her unnamed-for-the-sake-of-privacy-paramour visited said lodge for a private vacation and Cassandra recognized him as her long-lost brother she’d never met, from the pictures she’d seen of him around the manor.”

or

“Soooo, this is my little brother, the rumors of his demise have been greatly exaggerated as actually we had to fake his death to hide him from the evil sorceress our dad dated for two weeks and then dumped without realizing she wasn’t just joking about being Magic and also Vindictive and who swore to get back at him by taking vengeance upon Jay, who as I’m sure some of you remember, was both adorable and wee at the time, and thus the perfect target for Vindictiveness. But don’t worry, all of that’s water under the bridge now, apparently the sorceress got into it with some Justice Leaguers and is now stranded between dimensional voids or some such nonsense that’s high above MY paygrade, that’s for damn sure, so anyway, now Jay’s back and we’re having a party, everybody go say how glad you are that he’s not really dead, woohoo!”

or

“Yes, this is my older brother Todd, no, he’s not dead, no, I don’t know why or how, all of that was before my time and nobody ever tells me anything anyway.”

Etc, etc.

Ooooh sweeet... I just woke up and here a protective big brother Jason fic for breakfast 😁 with a side of maiming Ra's. Totally love the I-care-not-turned-to-I-care-much vibe.

I like Pit&Jason waaay better than canon.

You're welcome for the idea, and thank you for the fic!

Jason comes back to life but instead of the Pit being rage, it travels with him as a very murderous but also slightly helpful voice in his head. (A lá Venom)

Pit: kill Tim.

Jason: No. We don’t do that anymore.

Pit: … kill for Tim?

Jason: Sure. I can get on board with that.

———

Pit: Drink water!

Jason: I’m busy.

Pit: You have not drank water in 6 hours and 42 minutes. Drink water!!

Jason: ugh. Fine.

———

Pit: Death. Death comes. Death comes to those who dare be insolent before us.

Jason: No.

Pit: Yessssss… let us eat our enemies.

Jason: omg NO. We are not eating Dick because he stole a cookie.

Pit: You are weak. You are a coward. Let us tear the cookie from his innards.

Jason: No. Remember how we stopped eviscerating two months ago. Dick is keeping his intestines just the way they are.

Dick: I’m sorry, but what?

[ghostofthefourforest]

(Breathes) Aweesooomee

But but what about Ra's al Ghul

Did the pit kinda left him for Jason?

What if, one time Jason and the pit caught Ra's perving of Timmy?

Brendan Fraser. Yes. Perfect. Having watched him played dad!O'Connel, I agree wholeheartedly.

In fact, some scenes from Wayne Family Adventures should be in the movie. Like episode 4. Or episode 6 favoritism when Bruce got irritated when his children wears justice league merchandise. But of course there has to be extra scene... like for example when B got back from the JL meeting and find Titus in black dog shoes and black cape with yellow batman symbol. And Bruce went, like 'Titus you're my favorite child!' and melodramatically crying and carry the (huge) dog out of the room to feed him some snacks. And Damian goes 'I put those on him, Father! I DID IT' angrily. And then Tim, wearing black Superboy t-shirt relaxing on the sofa sipping grape zesti while working on a laptop with a Cyborg sticker in front center, told him, "It sucks to be you, isn't it?"

The shit Bruce has to do to maintain Brucie Wayne literally keeps me up at night. I think about the comic panel where the security guy was like, “check the bathroom, he accidentally locks himself in there sometimes” at least 3 times a day

And on my Bruce Wayne isn’t Batman post I was like, yea he definitely does that shit. Like does he just go about his day, looks at something and goes, “yea, it’s time to be stupid”

[ghostofthefourforest]

Does anyone genuinely call their siblings sis, sister, little/big sis, bro, brother, little/big brother etc. as constantly as this appears to be portrayed in media? I’m extremely sceptical. Now, affectionally addressing them by something like “slug”, “toad”, “fool”, and “bitch”, or even dare I say it, their gotdamn name, is, from my experience, so much more natural.

A brief summary of how user engagement is tracked on Tumblr, for the newcomer:

When you like or reblog a post, that counts as user engagement for the person you liked or reblogged from, and shows up in their notifications.  

If the person you liked or reblogged a post from wasn’t the original poster (i.e., you’re liking or reblogging a reblog), it also counts as user engagement for the original poster, and shows up in their notifications as well.  

This means that user engagement from your likes and reblogs can potential accrue to two different people, the original poster and the person you liked or reblogged from.  

Consequently, you cannot “steal” user engagement from someone by reblogging their post.  

This is one of the very few areas where Tumblr is actually functions more reasonably than other social media platforms.  

Note that this is only true if you use Tumblr’s built-in reblogging function. If you save someone else’s content to your local device and append it to a new post, you effectively become the original poster from that point on.  

This means that on Tumblr, “reblogging” and “reposting” are two different things; if you see someone complaining about “reposting”, this is not the same as reblogging.  

Commenting when reblogging does not affect any of this – unlike, say, Twitter, where quote-retweeting causes user engagement to accrue to the quote-retweet and not to the original tweet – and you can and should do so freely.  

However, every Tumblr user can see who exactly you reblogged a post from, which functions as a soft disincentive against making inane comments; if you make a dumb comment on a reblog, people who see your reblog may “back up” one step in the reblog chain to reblog a version of the post without your comment.  

Nobody understands tags, and there’s a fair amount of evidence that how tags work changes periodically and without warning.  

Tags are a divine mystery.

who the fuck cares about the thinness of a laptop i want that thing to have at leat 10 usb ports and a cd drive what the fuck

[ghostofthefourforest]

I really dig the official Paralympics logo for the shooting competitions

[ghostofthefourforest]

I ate my fruits and greens like a good girl... Now give me liquid caffeine and the heck with this mud sh*t.

You remember how a while ago rich people started paying huge amounts of money to drink dirty water? They're at it again. They're eating dirt now. Black Oxygen Organics, among others. It's fucking bog mud and compost in fancy supplement guise

What

oh my sweet lord fucking…….

[ghostofthefourforest]

That's a very awesome idea. I should be working right now but I'm too in love with this idea to not have a try.

So, whose kitchen is the closest to Crime Alley again?

Tim was head's deep in his latest case when the first notes to Queen's I Want to Break Free started playing. He was tempted not to answer but decided that if Jason decided to call insted of texting, it has to be something at least a bit important. He answers the phone and Jason, without even a hello, immediately get to the point.

"Replacement, you're out of almond milk."

Jason is in his kitchen. In his apartment. Three storeys above. And the security system didn't even sound a beep.

"I have gallons of milk. In fact, if you would care to look in that *new frigde* I bought for *your* stuff, you'll see that there's all kind of milk there. Two gallons each, as you requested."

"There's no almond milk. I checked."

"You wrote 'milk, all kinds, a gallon each' in the shopping list. It's hardly my fault that the supermarket was out of almond milk when I was there."

"Don't f*ck with me, birdie, I know you. You gave the list and your credit card to a speedster and forget the whole thing."

Tim keep his face straight but inside he winces. Lying to Jason takes more and more effort lately.

"I know for sure you can replace almond milk with other kind. There were literally dozens bottles of milk in there, Jason."

A 'hmph' is the only reply he gets before the the connection ended. He ponders for a moment, the open the Teen Titans' channel.

RR: Hey

KF: Fearless. Leader. To what. Do we owe. Our pleasure.

Of course Bart will be the first to answer.

RR: Come over iyc. Hood's cooking

WG: pmu asap

SB: batman ⋋_⋌ ok?

Tim pause for a moment before typing a reply. Remembering exactly how cranky Damian had been last night before patrol. Bruce was too busy with his analysis that he only chastised the brat half-heartedly. Batman, and Robin, who has Alfred to cook for them and whatever guest decided to grace Wayne Manor with their presence.

RR: F*ck Batman

RR: Also, KF? Get me some almond milk pls

I like imaging Jason breaking into the manor in full Red Hood gear just so he can go into the kitchen and stress bake

Bruce: [walks in]

Jason: “no! Out! OUT!”

Bruce: “I live here!”

Jason: “I don’t care- look you made my soufflé collapse!”

Bruce: “I didn’t do anything, I just wanted to see who was making all this damn noise in my kitchen and get some water”

Jason: “your ugly face scared my fucking soufflé”

Bruce: “Jason you can le-… never mind, I just want my drink”

Jason: “oh my god! Get out already!”

Bruce: [mumbling to himself] “remember you love him, it’s a miracle he’s here today, you love him, you missed him, he is a blessing”

Jason: [throws water bottle at Bruce] “here’s your fucking water, switch over to a filter you fucking asshole. You’re killing the environment, it’s not like you can’t afford a damn filter”

Capture this image from a video in youtube by channel Cringe pets. I'm not quite sure whether it's their original content or they merely edited it.

And the first thing I think of was

[ghostofthefourforest]

“A fox’s teeth are very sharp.” (2013-2019) Silk filament on silk-hemp blend with hand-dyed silk chiffon scarf.  Text is Sandman: The Dream Hunters by @neil-gaiman, design inspired by illustrations of Yoshitaka Amano.  Dress by L.L.K.  Photo credit to Kenneth Williams.

Six years ago, my unbelievably talented wife decided to undertake a ridiculously long and complicated project: to embroider a story onto a dress.

We live in a very casual college town where no one ever dresses up for anything, so we began a tradition of throwing formal New Year’s Eve parties, and L being L, she made a dress every year. In 2013, she decided to take it a step further: she would create a dress inspired by Neil Gaiman and Yoshitaka Amano’s Sandman: The Dream Hunters and then embroider the entire story onto the dress. The dress itself was the work of a few weeks and looked beautiful on her at the party, and then the real work began: planning, mapping, embroidering and embroidering and embroidering. She estimated it would take approximately ten years of doing needlework an hour or two each evening, leaving plenty of time to take nights or even months off. She finished in under six.

I can’t summon words to describe how proud of her I am right now. I mean, I am always proud of her, as she is an exceptionally kind and caring human being as well as a polymath (seamstress, carpenter, baker, programmer, naturalist, and tenured professor of biology), but she has created a true work of art and I hope it ends up in a museum somewhere to immortalize her talent, skill, and patience.

She’s currently trying to figure out her next project.
