#A TIRE SWING.

I think if you gave the teens a trampoline, their lives would improve dramatically

Currently obsessed with the concept of Danny 100% being the most Violent and youngest Wayne. I'm so sorry but the writing opportunity🥹🤌

Danny's rogues were all dead so they can't actually... Die again. Like— not in the normal way, that is. The only way that they could die is by crushing their core.

Cue Bruce Wayne and the whole family Finding out his extremely timid and closed off son/brother (yes, being ooc is the point here stfu😭) is arguably the strongest being in the universe and admitting that he has a tendency to have intrusive thoughts and horrible mood swings so he doesn't trust himself with doing the family's... 'business' (knowing damn well he could kill someone if he gets too agitated) and they're almost not convinced.

Emphasis on almost.

Once they watched as the youngest of them all completely threw down a weird eyeball (they later learn is an 'observant'), threw a green dagger right beside it, kicked it violently and threatened to gauge it's eye out and disintegrate it for interrupting their dinner.

He apologized to the family soon after the thing disappeared, back to completely timid and embarrassed.

Extra, Danny finding out about Joker:

News: Joker found dead in strange circumstances!

Bruce, turning to Danny: Danny....

Danny, who placed a bounty on Joker AND his soul in the ghost zone: *gasp* He died of strange circumstances? How unfortunate!

Bruce: *sigh* Chum...

Danny: I didn't do anything, my hands are clean!

Jason, in the background: Kid ilysm you're my favorite brother now

Another extra, about Vigilantism:

Danny, in tears: Leave me alone!

Dick & Tim: C'mon, it'll be fun!

Danny: Absolutely not!

Jason, watching the chaos unfold: Guys I don't think—

Alfred: Master Dick, Master Tim.

Danny: Alfreeeeed!

Bruce, pinching his nose: *sigh* Stop trying to make Danny a vigilante.

Dick & Tim: But—!

Bruce: No buts. We had an agreement.

Steph, in the background: A somewhat normal kid finally joined the family just leave him alone!

Danny, also in the background, sobbing: I'm already in charge of another dimension, give me a break!

From most to least, how much do the monkey kings like tire swings?

This

(Lmk Wukong) 11/10 He would love a tire swing bringing out his hidden man child. You set it up for a beach party you and Mk were throwing, and Wukong and the baby monkies had a blast. Not to mention you and Wukong getting to swim and stay cool together, too🥰

(HIB Wukong) 7/10 Pretends to hate the tire swing, but loves to watch you and the kids use it. You made it for Luier and Silly girl to add to the Village playground, and those two found themselves using it one every day. Though, when nobody's around, Wukong would chill and swing in it, but just to heal his inner child.

(MKR Wukong) 5/10 He doesn't like tire swings very much, but he always likes watching you and fruity use it. You had made a tire swing at Flower Fruit Mountain one day, and Wukong, for some reason or another, felt like it was an insult to himself. Though you do look super adorable and childlike whenever you go swinging, Wukong would have to hold back a squeal.

(NR Wukong) 9/10 man you just Encourage him to just join you on the tire swing, I mean the mini monkies already joined you. Even Li and Su joined on swinging and jumping into the water, that's when Wukong finally joined in on the fun in the water. After all he gets to admire his hot adoring wife in your pink polkadot bikini, stealing wet kisses from him😘

(Netflix Wukong) 10/10 that swing is sooo much fun to him, and he would play on it all day of you let him. He's totally shameless with it you would hear his excited voice as Wukong Swings into the air laughing with his eyes closed. You totally healed his inner child with that swing especially when he gets Lin and you to join.

(BMW Wukong) 3/10 No way it feels way to embarrassing for him to be on a tire swing built for small children. Though he has no issues letting you swing on it, along with the monkies and their cubs having fun and jumping into water. Wukong would have a small smile with the way you get along with all his subjects.

(Destined one) 2/10 you'll have the Destined one sigh at the distraction you made for yourself. You laugh and steal as you swing high in the air, totally enjoying your newfound activity. The Destined one, on the other hand, wouldn't be found dead using that thing and decided to just let you play and enjoy it.

Don't worry about still liking and reading his books guys. The experience you had with them is more important

Don't worry about still talking about the show, don't worry about following them on social media. We need to support the film crew!! I was going to watch the show anyway

Block the haters who are telling you it's wrong to keep making art based on this!!! Keep writing your fic!!!! It makes you happy!!! Keep posting it!!!! Keep putting that man's work into cultural consciousness!! Keep those tags trending!!! Let the studios know we want another season!!! Let them know it makes them money!!! I need to see my boys on screen!!!! Don't worry about the victims seeing his name and face and work and self importance everywhere!!!! I need this media to live and do you want me to die??? Is that what you're telling me??? You want me personally to die??? How could you. That's awful. To come into my space and tell me to die. That's almost like real life assault. You should be ashamed of yourselves.

Don't worry about it girlies!!! Your feelings are more important!!!! Be so gentle with yourself as you navigate how YOU want to keep interacting with the media (and it's okay to keep interacting with it!!! Never examine the effects social engagement and popularity have on yourself or other people!!!) just keep doing what feels right!!! It can't be wrong if it feels right!!! Just don't think about it!!! Don't think about it!!!! Don't think about it!!!!! Don't think about it!!!!!!!! Don't think about it!!!!!!!!!! Don't think about it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thinking about the "trilion and 12 years old" joke about Bill and thinking about his psychological development after the Euclydia massacre

In the show, we see that while he can plan ahead and manipulate people, he's often foiled by his own impulsiveness/anger/emotions. His ultimate goal is to escape the Nightmare Realm/Dimension 0. And sure, he says this is because he promised the Henchmaniacs he'd help them, but ultimately as others have pointed out, Bill is terrified of death. He wants to live forever - have "a party that never ends with a host who never dies". All he cares about is himself, his own survival and hedonism

All this to say, Bill has the emotional development of a teen. He hasn't gotten past the self-centredness nor the reward/adrenaline seeking behaviour, but has emotionally evolved enough to be able to manipulate people and such (and be able to feel guilt, even if it's just a picogram). Though his immaturity shows when he doesn't get his way.

One might think that, being a trillion years old, he would've developed a bit, but here's the thing - major traumas can "freeze" people at certain developmental stages. We don't know how old Bill was when Euclydia was destroyed - though considering his behaviour I would bet he was a teen.

(Or whatever the equivalent of that stage is for his species. They have exoskeletons- do they have instars then? Whatever, that's not on the topic of this post)

Seeing his entire dimension destroyed after (what was probably) a well-intentioned attempt to show them what he saw ("They'll see. They'll all see.") permanently emotionally stunted him. However it was he got his powers, he was a teen/young adult with powerful abilities who had just erased an entire dimension from existence and was now accountable to no one but himself while also being deeply traumatized. His constant partying and implied substance use were probably the only coping mechanisms he could think of, dissociating because he has no idea how to actually confront what happened. The way he talks about the massacre - he detaches himself from it yet still admits guilt ("A monster."). Only post-divorce does he implicate himself in the event, though still obscuring its true nature ("I liberated them.").

Being surrounded by individuals who are similarly maladjusted for most of his trillion-year lifespan certainly didn't help things. The Henchmaniacs are likely somewhat stunted as well, or at the very least don't offer much in the way of mature/emotionally adult conversation, especially since Bill reacts so poorly (read: homocidally) to any sense of malcontent.

Which is to say, I think part of why Ford was important to Bill was because, compared to him, Ford was more emotionally developed (Ford is emotionally stunted in his own ways, but not as severely as Bill IMO). Subconsciously, their relationship was reaching a hand out to the scared teenager in the centre of Bill's psyche and offering him someone to lean on- someone who had their shit a little bit more figured out. A kind of figure Bill hadn't had since he killed his parents.

Of course, such vulnerability probably felt so alien that Bill tried to distance himself. I always wondered - why didn't Bill just lie to Ford about his plan to take over Dimension 49'\ ? Ford would've believed him, finished the portal, and Bill's plan would've been fulfilled. Well, I think it was Bill trying to burn the emotional bridge. In his own impulsivity, his own desire to dissociate instead of confront, he would rather make sure that he would never be able to be vulnerable to Ford than fulfill his grand plan.

...

I don't remember where I was going with this. There's no conclusion. I'm spinning this triangular multidimensional tyrant at physically impossible speeds in my mind and if I didn't write something about him my skull was going to turn into a fine powder. It's almost 2 AM, so it's entirely possible this post makes 0 sense, in which case feel free to inform me of that in the notes.

i do apologize for talking about it so much but i think one of the worst parts about this outcome is how quick people are to push the blame to other members of our community. your outrage at systemic problems should not be at fellow marginalized people, EVER, but especially in times of strife like this. It is not the fault of arabs, or trans people, or any other minoritized group that the median american is apathetic at best to the rights of others. What truly helps is community building, and it is important to acknowledge the systemic problems that have led us to where we are rather than trying to blame every underprivileged group we come across.

Zosan proposal but they’re proposing at the same time and both want to be first.

They each plotted with the help of the crew (evenly split except for Robin, who knew of both proposals, and Luffy, who wasn’t told by either)

They see the ring box (or whatever they use to propose) and both immediately start swinging.

They fight and argue for like 30 minutes infront of the crew.
