#(he lost the plot son)

Any au that has Jason willingly working for the government even if itās as a social worker has automatically kinda lost me because weāre talking about someone who distrusts the system so much that as a child he chose the streets over going into custody of social services. Jasonās lack of faith in institutions continues into adulthood (but also through his original Robin tenure low key), one of the most substantial differences between his and Bruceās philosophy is the fact that Bruce puts his faith in the law and the criminal justice system while Jason decidedly does not in the slightest
#āJason would work for Gotham social services as a civilian/day job ā Would Jason trust Gotham social services? Genuinely honest question#feel free to answer with panels and stuff#I just donāt see him as someone who trusts state institutions or The System at all#Jason Todd#Dc#You could sorta look at the diplomatās son case as a difference between Bruce and Jasonās faith in the law#Bruce just sorta throws his hands up and goes ālaw has our hands tiedā and Jason is very unsatisfied with this answer#and he may or may not do something very much outside of the law in response#Tangent note: cop comparisons aside any au that has Jason actually working inside a police department has lost the plot#Jason Todd says fuck 12 he told me himself

hot take i guess but when i watch the scene with billy and agatha where she finds out for sure heās billy maximoff and starts tearing up, i perceive it as being bc sheās still a bit (read: significantly) heartbroken that he isnāt nicky. he isnāt hers. sure, she mightāve known from the beginning to some degree that he was wandaās, but she doesnāt know for sure. we see that every time she panics because heās hurt. we see that in the way she refused to leave his side when he was asleep. we see that when rio herself has to shake agatha out of it, saying, āagathaā¦ that boy isnāt yours.ā like YES logically i think she knew he wasnāt nicky, that he couldnāt be but we CAN see how painfully, hopelessly desperate agatha is to think that maybe he could be. so in my mind, she sees billy maximoff standing in front of her, finally being met with indisputable proof that he could not possibly be her lost son. how could she not tear up at that?
#idk#iāve just been seeing a lot of edits and posts ab this scene#where people are using it to be like Oh Wow look at how much she cares about billy! she really does love him!#and i justā¦#i donāt think thatās wrong necessarily and i do think on some level she prob does care for billy even as he truly is#but i do NOT think the truly cares that much about wandaās children#and i also really canāt see her being an aunt figure to him at all#a mentor? friend maybe?? a kid sheās werurdly attached to bc he reminds her of the song she lost centuries ago?? probably#*weirdly *son UGH#but i donāt think she cares bc sheās like. reminicising on the time they spent together in westview yknow?#she literally called tommy toby like im sorry but she donāt give a fuck š#but also to be fair i do think a large part of the climax of this show and the point of it#is going to come down to agatha continuing to develop an emotional connection with him#and i do ultimately think their relationship will be so vital and pivotal to the plot and both of their arcs#i just unfortunately cannot seem to interpret it the way a lot of you are iām sorry#agatha all along#agatha harkness#billy maximoff#william kaplan#wiccan#kathryn hahn#joe locke#nicholas scratch#wandavision#wanda maximoff#marvel cinematic universe#mcu#marvel mcu

My thoughts about Jason are just like I think they try to cash in on the dead kid thing a lot without providing much substance for it (1 reason I think utrh as a movie pulled it off is because it does give us not only a happy Jason but a smiling and happy Bruce) because in many (not all) comics flashbacks robin Jason is being a bit bitchy or difficult and itās almost never about Bruce liking him as a person. So that combined with the adoption being a retcon dick brings in through confrontation adds up to this impression that Jason is like. A lump. An uncomfortable obligation and a regret.
And there *is* imo a lot of father son stuff to mine in Jason and Bruceās relationship but a lot of it is pre crisis and is Dc ever gonna make that one hug canon again? No. And then all of this on top of how Jason robin personality wise was a lot like dick AND thereās how Bruce adopted Jason because he had no parents and needed a father and what Bruce wanted was a chance to do it over with dick with the foresight of how much they would mean to each other. So when you donāt account for pre-crisis thereās the impression that Bruce made a promise to be his father before they even really knew each other- and that is a big regret. And Jason as his son is an obligation. Based off of how he felt about Dick. And then I go insane.
#I lost the plot writing this out. it itās mostly like#does bruce love Jason or does he keep the promise he made when he adopted him and does it matter and is there a difference#I <3 my shitty son shirt and the tiredest eyes youāve seen on a man#because itās like. a certain kind of person doesnāt want Bruce to not love Jason because that would make him a ābad fatherā#and thatās incompatible with āBruce the good personā so. my theory#also āļø Bruce doing the you need parents thing to Jason semi SECRETLY by not even telling him his father was dead

Jason does something and it pushes the JL over the edge and he wants to run but Dick wont let him. Cant let him. (sorry there is absolutely no plot for this i had the idea and bam i wrote it)
āJason wait!ā Dick hollered, following his younger brother into his apartment. āStop, think about this!ā He pleaded. āI have thought about it.ā Jason growled gruffly, slamming his bag onto the counter, sending hundreds of things flying as he began roughly shoving things into it. āAnd I'm leaving. I won't stay here.ā Dick blocked his path. āI can't let you do that.ā Jason glowered at him. āAnd why fucking not? You made it clear since the moment I was robin you wanted me gone. And now I'm leaving. So let me.ā Dick shook his head, eyes full of tears. āI can't. Because they'll blame him.ā Jason scowled. āBlame who?ā He growled. āBruce.ā Dick whispered. āSomeone has to take the fall for this Jason, and he won't let it be you, you know he won't.ā ābullshit.ā jason barked brusquely. āHe is your father and he will take the fall and the punishment and the death blow to keep them from going after you.ā Dick's voice broke. āPlease. I canāt have that.ā āYou'd pick him over me?ā Jason seethed, not bothering to contradict any of Dick's absurd claims about Bruce being his father or taking the blame for him. That was crazy. Dick's eyes were full of tears but he nodded, even as Jason could see it rip him in two. Jason didn't care. āAfter everything he's done you would still pick him over me??ā He bellowed. Dick slammed a hand into his stomach and Jason grunted in surprise, flying back and hitting the wall. āAfter everything he's done?ā Dick screamed, half hysterical half, Jason couldn't identify the emotion on his older brother's face. āYou mean save me from depression? Rescue you from the streets? Teach us to defend ourselves and protect us from the world? Pick us up off the floor after the worst nights of our lives and hold us close? Offer us home and food and safety and a family? You mean those things?ā Dick stalked closer and Jason finally identified the emotion on his face. Rage. Pure, unbridled rage. āBruce Wayne is my father and the best damn man I have ever known. I will not let him suffer your consequences again, I will not be Batman and watch Tim tear himself apart for this family again, I will not see Damian raised without a father, watch Steph and Cass and Babs disappear into themselves the way they always do when he's not there. Bruce saved us.ā Dick's voice broke. āAnd I will not let him take the fall for you.ā He shook his head. āNot this time. Iām sorry Little Wing.ā
#no plot#just angst#and dick being a protective son#idk#i wanted dick to rage at jason for not seeing bruce the way he does#i wanted dick to lose it#to yell at jason for not seeing how much bruce cares#how much shit he takes#just for jason#how much he fights for them#and protects them#and /tries/ for them#batfam#dick grayson#bruce wayne#batman#batman and robin#jason todd#batfamily#take this fic with a grain of salt#love jason and love bruce and love dick#but sometimes jason pisses me off#hes rightfully angry#but in his anger he blocks out other peoples feelings#which is natural#but he does it /so/ much#and it pisses me off#sure jasons death hurt him more than bruce fs#but bruce lost his child#where are all the people saying

god tywin lannister deserved worse
just remembering elias death and i wanna puke and the way tywin talks about elia and what happened is so damn gross
but rip tommen and myrcella we all know whatās about to happen in the next book :/
the cycle of violence just keeps spinning and damn you tywin for beginning it
(i got a bit crazy in the tags š)
#rest in peace elia and rhaenys#iām one of those crazy ppl who thinks jaqen hāghar is aegon š#literally lost the teeny tiny amount of credibility i had#anyways i think doranās in on it and i think rhaegar switched out asharas child for aegon paralleling the baby swap jon does#the pact made in braavos about viserys and dany marriages is a half truth half lie#and arianne being sent to faegon is simply doran testing his heir. if she messes up then whoeverās spying for doran will correct her#gerold dayne knows too much thatās why doran thinks heās too dangerous#but this would make the dornish plot sooooo much more interesting and would show that no doran hasnāt been doing nothing#it would also automatically make the daynes more important#jaqen (aegon) was in kings landing to kill robert but got caught by varys. syrio was sent to find him. ned cleared out the black cells tho#saving aegon in the process. fun how weāre actually introduced to this character through lyanna starks mini me arya#aegon was able to kill robert with a boar tho so mission accomplished.#now heās in old town trying to hatch his dragon egg. the stone beast taking flight in danys vision is aegon being symbolically depictedā¦#..as a spinx#iām crazy delusional. but ppl who think faegon is actually aegon are even more delusional than me#plus the real aegon being alive fulfills the suns son part of quaithes warnings#i like this theory bc it makes the dorne plot more interesting and it explains whatever is going on with jaqen hāghar cause he is sus#yes yes i know iām delusional š i just think itād be a very interesting twist#kinda hoping no one sees this post at this point bc i know no one will take this theory well lol#i do think this theory can be supported by the text tho#and cerseis throw away line about ned stealing asharas baby would suddenly become peak foreshadowing#barristan comparign dany to ashara would also be peak foreshadowing bc ashara would take the place of gilly in this parallel and she was dis#dishonored by someone at harrenhall. likely aerys and then she turned to a stark probably brandon for comfort#tbh i think it was ashara who lied to brandon about what happened to lyanna. perhaps she was trying to mess with brandonās wedding and#was trying to get back at rhaegar for humiliating elia at the tourney. i highly doubt it was baelish who lied to brandon cause brandon#has little reason to believe him and no reason to trust him. ashara tho? arthur daynes sister and elias lady in waiting? also his lover?#anyways varys the spider potentially stealing aegon away (if he did take a child it was the false aegon) is there to parallel the others#who ride ice spiders taking crasters sons. tbh i think it was aegon who decided he wanted to train as a faceless man so he could get revenge#on his own terms. and the sea lord of braavos at the time was in on it and helped aegon with his plans#the unveiling coming up is going to be a lot more important than arya just reclaiming her identity. yes im delusional lmao. rant over

The way TG stans write Fanon!Daemon as this evil mastermind who has been plotting to kill his brother's children from the moment they were born reminds me of Peter Griffin's evil brother, Thaddeus.
Daemon: *twirls silver mustache* "Nyah! This will surely affect my inheritance! Nyah!"
#house of the dragon#daemon targaryen#anti team green#team green look away#not for team green stans#no but seriously the way they write him in fanfiction is crazy#fanon!daemon is written as the evil uncle who wastes time plotting the deaths of the green kids when we all know he wouldn't have waited#fanon!daemon abuses the green kids and yet he's never had a single interaction with them or given them any thought#he never thought about them at all#and if he did it was after he lost his brother and daughter and step-son#all in one fell swoop#and wanted revenge#anyway fanon!daemon is a ridiculous cartoony villain compared to canon!daemon

itās really sad that i always looked forward to rhaenyra and/or alicent scenes last season but i now feel the urge to fast forward every time one of them comes on screen
- every alicent scene is her looking sad or crying or her with cole but nothing she does adds anything of value to the plot
- we get the same black council scene in which the men are undermining rhaenyra twice per episode and still nothing is done (i do believe she will make some progress in the next episodes but itās just so boring to watch her have the same scene over and over again)
cersei and dany i miss you both so much
#and there are other characters in the show that are so much more interesting but but donāt get the screen time they deserve#and i know that theyāre women and they have to face these struggles for it to be realistic but they did that last season too and they found#a way for it to not be repetitive#but rhaenyra just being so soft and always looking for peace is just so frustrating especially after how season 2 ended up#and obviously sheās the rightful heir and the better option for the iron throne but oh my god they have made her character so uninteresting#to watch#and i really liked rhaenyra in s1 and i thought she had a lot of potential as a character#in a show where the majority of the characters are supposed to be morally grey (even if done clumsily) she doesnāt stand out#and what has become of alicent is worse because sheās not even doing anything anymore but sheās still being forced into the story#with random plot lines#i wish they would just let the characters be and give them as much screen time as they need#and i donāt want to watch a show about good team vs bad team i wish they have given rhaenyra more complexity#because even though aegon sucks and they made him the worse thing a person can be and unredeemable#i am unfortunately not bored whenever he is onscreen#and i think so far they have established that the targaryens suck so many times even if they do good things every once in a while#aegon sucks viserys sucks aemond sucks dany sucks daemon sucks#all of them to different extents and in different ways ofc#but let my girl rhaenyra suck a little too because she deserves it š«#she lost her father her son her daughter her throne let her be a little more like she was in the book#she was not a saint and her character deserves to not be reduced to being a good peaceful queen#hotd negativity#anti hotd#i must also say that i am a casual fan im not here to make analysis of the characters or discuss whether plot lines from the book should#have been changed#im not watching the show critically and this is just something i have noticed and has bothered me every time a new episode drops

the existential parental horror of madagascar 2. also very funny that zuba's son comes back to life and to his dismay- the boy's still into showtunes
#it's like if monsters inc contextualized the whole adventure with boo's parents realizing she's gone#madagascar 2: zuba has LOST THE PLOT#how he goes thru that and is still nitpicking his son's personality - TOO REAL

I can really write an essay about gojoās past arc because itās really at the point where I need to be asked specific questions so Iām not rambling on forever
#jjk has lost me tbh#like shibuya is just not good and the consistency of the current plot is justā¦ not there#and I love itadori down š but I got to call a spade a spade#I just think that gegeās writing is at its BEST in contained arcs#like longer arcs is where he donāt even know what he doing bc heās adding so much with no conclusions#why is WHY gojoās past arc is so good and brilliant#gojo x geto x riko x toji was an excellent combo to worldbuild with and show why thereās such a nihilistic feel to sorcerers#and why gojo does not praise the same system that basically upholds him as a king#and just the way gojo and geto start the arc and finish it is *chefs kiss*#but gojoās relationship with all three of them is just so good like I canāt get over it#gojo who is born blessed & riko who is born to die for the system that upholds him as such#gojo the spoiled arrogant guy becoming empathetic & taking on a selfless role as a teacher bc of what happened#vs. geto the respectable charming guy becoming cynical and downright hateful to justify their world#gojo the top of this system and was handed everything vs. Toji who was bottom of the barrel#but he worked for everything despite how much tragedy and life fought against him#JUST FOR HIS SON TO BE BORN with the revered curse that rivals gojo#I was gonna say you canāt make that shit up but gege did and it was GREAT

thinking about my good friend alois tracy on this day
#at first i didnāt like him bc of hannah but then the season moved on and i was like ā¦ okay maybe im going to sign adoption papers#but heās literally a 12-13 year old with a Lot of trauma. with his only family aka his younger brother dying in front of him and w that#old fucker and when he tries to get out of this whole thing he manages to summon the Worst Demon Ever. like i Know that the main characters#are ciel and sebastian and they needed antagonists which were aloisās servants but alois is my son!!! he shouldnāt have been subjected to#claude and the othersā¦ and he just makes me sooooooooo sad whenever i think of him bc he lost everything and just when he thought things#were going good for him it took a turnā¦ like ok i get that if claude was like sebastian then the whole story would be boring w no plot twist#claude is the definition of having food on your plate and looking over to see someone else about to eat what you consider better and taking#it and if he didnāt do that then the plot of s2 wouldnāt progress itād be boring and pointless but then again season 2 was SO unnecessaryā¦#alois my boy iām taking you and putting you in an anime youāll be happy in </3#black butler

does anyone else ever think about Icarus or is that just me who is always always always thinking about Icarus
#fancy thoughts#ACTUALLY! What about Daedalus. I never think about him but what an interesting guy heās kind of got a lot going on doesnāt he.#And a dead son also#Hmmmmmmmm#Icarus is just so. Teenager. You know ? Idk how old he actually is#But I get it like I get it I get it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The sun IS warm.#I would also fly too close to it to feel its warm fingers brush against me like yeah !!#ESPECIALLY if I had been locked up in a tower for forever. Too bad you know like okay fine at least it was fun!!!#I have lost the plot of what I was saying sorry. Anyway. Icarus š

I think that if you watch The Mummy 2 on its own, itās a fine little flick with flaws but a lot of charms. But if you The Mummy 2 right after watching the first one, it becomes the absolute worst movie youāve ever seen in your entire life.
#last night me and my friends watched dirty dancing and the mummy 1 and 2 all back to back#if you even care#also to clarify#the mummy 2 has a lot of good bits but it just doesnāt flow AT ALL for some reason especially after the first one#it feels a lot more dry and forced#i love the iconic evil power couple and I love that we have more ardeth#but tragically the OāConnells have no chemistry with their son#like I never believe that they are a family#and more importantly abd tragically ā¦ they massacred my boy Jonathan ā¦#because in the first movie Jonathan is the comic relief BUT HE DOES THINGS he is somewhat competent!!!#in the sequel if you take away Jonathan the plot practically doesnāt changes and it angers me#anyway#at least Mr Eko from Lost is here#the mummy

He's in a weird place, considering he fights for humanity already. Why does he have to fight for one person in particular? Why specifically their hand?

i also think there are few things funnier than the way allen and kanda's relationship changes throughout the manga. like i do not ship them at all but for over a hundred issues it's yuu edgelord supreme kanda being like 'FUCK you for being nice and polite all the time. the world is a TERRIBLE place and it is STUPID AND NAIVE for you to pretend otherwise' and allen grin and bear it walker being like 'Actually I Believe In The Inherent Value Of Human Life You Piece Of Shit :) Be Nice To People :) Appreciate Your Friends :) Find Hope Or Go To Hell :) ' and then searching for AW hits with all the force of neah and the fourteenth and suddenly allen is like "maybe it is all meaningless actually haha i ruin everything i touch and my life was never truly mine <3 i think i might go catatonic for a little while about it wouldn't that be fun <3 go on the run and isolate myself <3" while kanda tracks him down to shake him by the shoulders like "wait wait wait fuck you oh my god stop that you need to believe in people again what about your fucking friends jesus christ don't you remember them oh my fucking god where did your stupid hope go and why do i have to be the one to force you to find it UGH." kanda fucked around and found out. literally be careful what you wish for.
#it's also a really beautiful character arc!!#like the way allen was such a beacon of hope he literally forced hope into kanda's life after YEARS#and then allen lost everything he ever knew about himself and his life and suddenly it's kanda's job to remind him of that very hope??#that's so good like AWAUGHH??#i wish i did ship them bc it seems like the perfect kind of thing to be mentally ill about#unfortunately i hate hate hate the idea of allen in a relationship love and light <3#im just mentally ill about them in a platonic way#main character syndrome except it's just that i care about their plot and friendship dynamics too much to ship them with anyone#also he is Literally Son Boy to me. that is a baby. he's my LITTLE GUY.#allen is literally kanda's first friend too tho like i think that's part of it#it's so much more valuable for me to think of kanda finding respect for allen despite and even bc of everything he thought of as a flaw#so kanda coming through for him in searching for AW is just so!!! it is everything to me!!!#kanda starts out the series by outright saying i will leave you behind if you slow me down#and now he's grown so much as a character that he absolutely refuses to give up on allen even when allen's given up on himself#and to me personally this is a much more meaningful friendship dynamic than relationship dynamic#bc it feels more novel platonically#try too hard to beat the hope out of your silly little coworker and you might have to be the bitch who forces it back into him.#it makes me very emotional to think about it ok. i am cringe but i am free etc etc

Obsessed with the fact that the A plot of this episode is Jimmy and Kim trying to pin false cocaine charges on Howard while the B plot is Nacho fighting for his life at a motel in Mexico
#Also i have thoughts about gus as per usual but its nothing particularly new#just the fact that he isnt keeping it together super well and if you know what youre looking for its super obvious#like the fact that he knocks a glass on the floor while meeting with tyrus and mike#hes known for being put together and planning everything he isnt the sort of man to make a mistake like that without Something Else going on#obviously its because lalo is still alive because gus doesnt have control of the situation (he really likes to have control of situations)#even though nacho has done everything thats asked of him gus still wants to kill manuel#hes desperate and angry and hes slipping#but like cmon killing your employees father is Not a good way to cope with your feelings pls go to therapy#do you think on some level he wants someone to understand his pain? like obviously he wants people to suffer as he has#but do you think he also wants the connection that comes from understanding#and like i think thats why he was so nice to mike and so horrible to nacho after both of them tried to kill hector#because mike already lost the person he loved most (his son) but nacho hasnt. nacho hasnt suffered enough to Understand#he needs to suffer or he cant stay in the business (even though he doesnt wanna stay in the business)#god imagine being so bitter and hurting so much that you cant stand to be around people who dont hurt the way you do#and imagine not knowing how to deal with the anger and pain in any way other than plotting revenge and hurting/threatening to hurt others#but just imagine having all of that festering inside you for 15-19 years (depending on which show) god#imagine not being able to let go or move on or let yourself be anything other than angry and bitter and in pain after So Long#but i digress#š§Ŗš
