meta — persephone's hair.

IN QUITE A FEW VERSES, PERSEPHONE'S HAIR is the only truly supernatural thing about them. it is the singular manifestation of a small shard of the void contained within persephone and her twin brother. in him, it manifests in different ways depending on the version of him i'm writing against (i like to give my friends a blank slate for twin and see what they come up with :D there are three versions of him so far and i love all of them to death.)

glossy, pin-straight and ink-black, persephone's hair is far too lightweight for its length. in its darkest parts — the shadows cast underneath it especially — one can just catch an array of faint and glimmering stars.

roughly three quarters of the way through, it begins to dissolve into dark wisps of odorless smoke, which is cool and misty to the touch. the smoke reacts normally to wind and solid matter passing through it, dissipating and separating around the interference.

her hair's temperature (slightly colder than room temp) is completely static & unaffected by the environment, which makes it an excellent tool for temperature regulation in extremely hot or cold seasons.

it also interacts uniquely with different elements of the world around it. in deep shadow, the smoke spreads into the space, which in turn causes the shadows to darken unnaturally. it helps them camouflage in unlit spaces, obscuring their body in nearly-tangible darkness. in water, first it spreads an oil-slick of smoke over the surface. then it spreads downward, pools like ink under the surface and does not stop until the entire body of water is pitch-black.

persephone loves her hair. she always has. the only trait that they dislike — strongly, especially now — is that its growth is not affected by time, but strong fear. it is a protective mechanism. the reason she keeps it so long is that it refuses to grow any further than her knees, so there is no way it can be used as a tell for what she's feeling.

most of the time, seph leaves it down or ties it into a ponytail. if they need it out of the way, they'll braid it. the only exception to this is verses where they need to hide their identity (such as fe:3h), in which case they will separate it into two braids and pin it close to their head, tucking in the ends to stifle as much of the smoke as possible. she still needs to wear a hood to obscure the rest (a safe enough option, as it blends into the shadows around it.)

Vulcan teen on Vulcan [tiktok] saying "I have just lost track of my father in the grocery store." The camera turns to show the viewers the grocery store in which almost every single older middle-aged man has a bowlcut and long robes. Camera turns back to show the teen's face which is expressionless and yet communicates all it needs to.

headcanon that stan hates wearing glasses (for many reasons) and went without them for years until he really needed them

[Image Description: Comic of a younger Stanley Pines from "Gravity Falls." Alt text is provided and copied below the cut. End ID]

A younger Stan squints at his blurry reflection in the mirror, leaning in really close to see himself clearly. He sighs and grabs a pair of Ford's glasses on the dresser. Putting them on, he stares at his reflection. "Welp," he says, "this is unsettling."

He turns away from the mirror to adjust his tie, saying, "But it can't be helped." His reflection is now a disheveled Ford, mirroring Stan.

There are three kinds of LGBT headcanons:

Actual queer coding / metaphors ("Nimona is trans because her creator made her as a way to express his feelings as a trans person")

Vibes ("Link is genderless because I said so")

It's funny ("Phoenix Wright is asexual because he's the Ace Attorney")

More medieval dyes for y'all!

[ahfrickenfrick]

vicki vale: and what do you have to say about the rumors that Bruce Wayne and Batman are the same person?

12 year old, newly appointed robin, jason todd: ??? that would be really weird cause i’ve literally seen them kiss before??

bruce: *in the Wayne tower, popping up from his paperwork* …something just happened…

[bats-and-the-birds]

Situation where Clark has formed a tentative working relationship with Batman, but somewhere in that time, Batman acquired Robin and, naturally, didn't tell him.

Clark finds out about Robin's existence when a ten year old Dick Grayson in full Robin gear breaks into his apartment at two in the morning and shakes him awake because Batman's missing and Alfred's away and Bruce taught him that, in the case of emergency, Superman was one of the only people he could trust. Bruce just didn't think to tell Clark that he was, by all means, his son's emergency contact.

Clark: -wakes up to a small boy that he's never seen or heard of before in a cape and a mask with lenses that reflect light like a cat's perched on the edge of his bed in a pitch black room-

Dick, calmly: Hey, Batman's -- stop screaming -- Batman's missing. I need help.

[huntershowl-moving]

i find it so fascinating the way seph's ships tend to skew masc. i want to say wtf, but at the same time, it makes perfect sense. like — idk my first thought when opening her up to romantic dynamics is that she'd skew femme, because she does have an immense soft spot for women and femmes just in general (more likely to trust, protective of, etc.) but i realized all at once when writing out their bnha verse that like. i don't think she has any goddamn clue how to ACT with girls. at least, the ones who haven't also cut their teeth on violence/crime/etc.

part of it is gender stuff, she never feels fem enough to be One of the Girlies and gets a little bit dysphoric with it even though it's not the girls' fault for just Existing as themselves.

there's also like, this romanticized (but also. tragedized?) view of girlhood in seph's head because of everything she's lost and seen other people lose. they've been forced into a more feminine role than they were comfortable with and witnessed the world from the underestimated, infantilized eyes of a Wife(tm) and they did not like what they saw. girlhood is something that doesn't belong to her, doesn't belong near her, but something she FIERCELY wants to protect.

that's the thing though — protecting something, for persephone, usually means from afar. this especially applies to girls because she had to MORDER her first love on orders from her fuckin boss!!! how do you move past that!!! the reminders are less severe with neutral or masc people, so it's easier to stay close to them.

anyways omg. it's no accident that seph's two girlfriends are like, two of the most physically or magically powerful people she's shipped with LMAO

The only acceptable trans Tim headcanon would be Tim introducing himself to the batfam as a boy from the get-go with such confidence that no one questions him. Then, his first solo case as Robin is investigating the disappearance of Jack and Janet Drake's "daughter," so he pretends to have a twin sister by forging a bunch of documents and photoshopping family pictures. He then fabricates evidence of her death, committing multiple crimes in the process, and holds a fake funeral at the end. Because if his previous name is dead to him, he's gonna kill it the Tim Drake way

[violent138]

Clark absolutely plays it up when he meets little kids dressed like Batman in Metropolis, referring to them as his old friend and making them ecstatic. He also has a habit of helping any little Robins he finds do flips.

Batman runs into little Supermans in Gotham and sends Clark photos of them from his lenses captioned with things like, "On the job for six years and already better than you" or answering questions about Supes like "Yes I am his boss."

[damianwaynerocks]

saw someone say months ago that the best cover story for jason coming back to life in the public eye is to say he was in witness protection. and i agree with that! but id like to add: jason would make a public statement saying that the reason he was in witness protection is “i saw joker kill robin”

[applecidersstuff]

Percy Jackson is against bullying.

He is however very sad that neither Annabeth, Clarrise or Drew had met Octavian in camp Jupiter, because as much as he frowns on it he would pay any kind of money to see those three tear him a new one for acting like a little bitch he is.
