Hades removed the curse on the Oracle only after he found out Rachel hit his father in the eye with a plastic hairbrush.

Obsessed with characters who portray themselves as worse than they are. Who are lying to everyone including themselves about it. People generally assume if someone's lying about themselves they're trying to look better but sometimes they're trying to look worse. They attribute agency to where they had none, add intent to accidents, try to convince everyone that this is something they did instead of something that happened to them.

I had kind of erased the fact from my mind that for a time in the Snyder Justice League run Bruce took care of a little Starro, dressed him up as a Robin and cared for him like he was a son while he also apparently couldn't be bothered to get off his ass and check in on where the hell Damian was and what he was doing for pretty much a year of Damian's life.

ok while we're back on the dotc dissing train can we all take the time to acknowledge THIS trainwreck of a side character and his plotline?
bro is literally a deadbeat dad who left his pregnant mate (who's portrayed as hysterical and unreasonable) behind in the mountains because he no longer gave a shit and she vows his kits will never even know his name yet for some reason years later he's remembered as a hero by his son (who's also named after him) who idolises the fact that he abandoned him and his mother and is genuinely devastated to find out he died after journeying to meet him
The Sun Trail (chapters 3-4)
The Blazing Star (bonus scene)
A Forest Divided (chapters 14-15)
like damn can you imagine this sort of plotline playing out with a she cat mother with way less agency over the situation who for some reason or another spent time away from her kits and was hated for it by the fandom, narrative and her kits- oh wait

Maverick, trying to flirt: My dick is like life... Life is hard.
Iceman, blankly: Life is also short.
Maverick: Listen here, you annoyingly sexy son of a bitch-
Iceman, trying to contain his upset: You should know that my mother is an incredibly kind, respected, and well loved woman.
Maverick: I meant your father?
Iceman: ...
Iceman: Continue.

the fact that the "golden boy" is a canonical figure in hellblazer who simultaneously represents both constantine's twin who was never born (thus becoming a spectre of the death of john's mother, a crime he was judged for without cause that poisoned his entire childhood) and also the expectation of who he would be in his father's eyes that was never met and thus subsequently killed........chewing glass would make me happier than these comics sometimes.

Something really funny that's occurred to me is the way Joe talks about Maccie is like she's some catastrophic event that happened to their family "I can't believe she's been here that long." / "Everything's been different since she was born" / "Everything changed." / "She changed everything."
And it's just rlly funny to me. I want to up the dramaticness of his words at some point. And anyway, he's talking to the Samurai/Ronin for the first time and I'm wondering the impression he's getting lmao
Joe is certainly expressive to me, but only when he's given the chance. And I think w Ronin, he just started letting a lot of stuff out bc thus guy is gonna go on his way anyways.. but then he's like wait!!! Actually let me go?? For a little? (Platonic yearning so bad)
Ronin like 》^. "I suppose.. Alright, curious karate man, I'll accompany you a little longer."
Or something I'm messing around UGH

I don't want to be mistaken for someone who's ever seen an episode of miraculous but netflix just gave me the advert for the movie and WHY is the bug girl being so mean to her dad. Do you KNOW how many people I'd kill for a father who wants to drive me to and from school and make my favourite cupcakes for me and my friends??? 'I don't have any fwends 😖' booHOO me either but you have an adoring baker for a father. Get a grip. Personally i think he's hot and I'm willing to become your stepfather. I WILL tell that fucking blonde boy you have a crush on him if you don't show your adorable bear shaped father some respect right this instabnt

I usually headcanon most non-canon ships I like as childfree partially out of contrarianism (I hate when people ASSUME two people will have kids just because they’re in love) and partially because I don’t want kids and this is my house and I am here mainly to project onto fictional characters
But lawlu? Ohhhh they’re having kids. They’re HAVING kids. Law might not know it yet but they WILL be having multiple children

What if Ghost wears his mask because, after all the torment his father rained on him... he got the nervous tic of smiling AND laughing...
He starts getting nervous and his lips start to twitch up into a smile.... He can't stop it. It just... happens
Someone can be brutality killed in front of him but because of his father, his lips just twitch into a smile instead of a frown or grimace. It doesn't reach his eyes so no one really knows it, but he feels disgusted with himself anyway. Smiling and laughing at someone suffering? "What kind of monster are you Simon?"
