Favorite niche Superbat trope in fic: when other Kryptonians visit Kal-El and they don’t fully understand why he loves Earth so much, but they protect it on his behalf because he’s their future, their baby they sent into the stars, their son/cousin/brother/hope. A son of the House of El.

And the sub-trope, of course, of those same Kryptonians not fully understanding what Kal sees in this human man from Gotham but protecting him with the full power of their House(s). Not that he needs it, but Kal gets twitchy if there isn’t a Kryptonian within shouting distance of his human and they’re more than willing to oblige.

Soap and Ghost taking care of eachother in little ways that they know the other won't find out about.

Like soap "accidentally" leaving his cup of water on Ghost's nightstand because he knows Ghost doesn't usually drink water during the day because of the mask.

Or Ghost letting a snack bar slip out of his pocket and somewhere near Soap's presence because he knows Soap often skips meals especially if he's prepping for a big op.

Or Soap making himself a tea, and "realizing" he didn't actually want the tea after one sip. Usually on late nights after Soap hears Ghost roaming the halls outside his door.

Or Ghost always having a messy desk of pens and scrap paper when soap is hanging out with him while he's doing paperwork

It's all small stuff that the other would wave off as unnecessary if they found out what was happening. Because of course Ghost can get his own water. Of course he can get his own tea. And obviously soap can feed himself. And keep himself entertained. They don't need any of that. But they get it, because the other cares about them

For those of you who are in recovery/sober in the US tonight please take care of yourself. I’m proud of you, believe in you, and care about you.

do you think there had always been art of the chosen one in the undersea? Do you think gillion grew up surrounded by stained glass windows and murals of himself? Do you think he looked up to himself? Prayed to himself? Asked himself for guidance?

did they look like him at all? Were they constructed in his image or was he constructed in theirs?

if they go back to the undersea, will they still be there? Were they tore down the minute he was exiled, or do they still remain as a reminder of what he could’ve been?

DEBATES IN BRAZIL ARE THE BEST THING EVER, THE GUY CALLED THE OTHER A COWARD THAT WASN'T "MANLY ENOUGH" TO SLAP HIM AND THEN THIS HAPPENS

Guys. Look me in the eyes. I'm gripping your shoulders so hard right now. Clark did not fail Kon. He did not ignore him. Editorial would not allow Clark to be a major character in sb94 because he would not have let that shit slide. He was only allowed cameos because he had common sense and they wouldn’t have been able to tell that nickelodeon child star ass story if Clark was heavily present. Do you understand me. Considering how little Clark was allowed to directly influence Kon’s life during that era it is remarkable he helped as much as he did and was still a solid, loving, dependable figure and one of the only people truly looking out for that kid as much as he was allowed to. Once he was allowed to Be There, he quite literally took Kon away from that hell and gave him a home. Listen to me. Clark did not fail Kon and it took real world interference to stop him from helping so much it changed the story itself. Do not slander Clark Kent when you know not of which you speak.

HOLY SHIT HIS EYES LOOK LIKE FISH

gilliob..

spot the parallels between the chip page challenge

[leahsgf]

need someone to be on the same page as me with this one…

imagine leah with (sort of) influencer!reader.

you film mini days in your lives on your tiktok constantly, and over time leah gets caught in the back of SO many of them. to the point where eventually you give up with trying to hide her in the back and just film her too.

and a whole other side to her is shown to fans, whether it be her literally taking her ‘daily nap’ sprawled out on top of you, insisting that you stroke her back, angrily sitting up when you don’t, her pacing the kitchen struggling to boil pasta, her grumbling to herself as she watches arsenal play, her constantly, and i mean constantly touching you somehow (she is a CLINGY girl through and through) and her walking around the house singing at the top of her lungs, amongst many other things.

you’ve attempted (key word attempted) to do a few fit checks, but she grumpily interrupts every single time, especially when you spin around, grabbing your hips and insisting that nobody but her needs to see.

the internet have branded you *the* sunshine and grumpy trope, which you had to explain to her as she frowned (proving their point)

you drag her into all sorts of challenges for tiktok, and pull pranks that she falls for every single time.

like the one time you refused to call her anything but ‘leah’ for a whole day it lasted an hour but she insists it was a day and she practically melted into a puddle.

she secretly loves your tiktok and favourites all of your videos, and is always the first like.

her favourite by far is the ‘day in the lives’ you do on match days, being her little wag.

she doesn’t love however, the thirst comments you get in your comments, and will whine at every single one, even blocking the people sometimes

I JUST REALIZED SOMETHING HILARIOUS WHILE REWATCHING MW3

Look. Soap is VISIBLY angry, while price is manning up and apologizing to soap, and soap is handling it like a big boy, even if he can't make himself look at the man while he does so (he only looks at price once he has accepted price's Apology)

"I shouldn't've stopped you."

"It was the right thing at the time."

(Side note at this angle he is 100% looking directly at Ghost)

And then here Ghost pipes up right after soap is finished speaking, guivng no time for anyone else to interject (he's actively and openly taking soap's side on this)

"At the time..."

And price whips around, and you can't see his face from the angle, but personal experience (being a smartass) tells me from his body language that he is giving Ghost the "don't be an ass about it"/ "*exasperated* really, Ghost? ����"/ "don't rub it in" look

FIFHJSJAJDHZNAJDU I LOVE THEM

bitb boys thought they were just some random people who ended up sacrificing themselves to save a whole town

hey isnt it kinda pretty how in a way each jrwi campaign, its people who are what they say because they arent.

godslayers - not really killing the gods mercilessly, they even give chances it seems

pirates - holding onto vague memories of how to be a pirate, but other wise just fucking around

heroes - not really using that black and white ideas, which allows them to do better at this job of theirs because yeagh.

theres so many and im thinking about it

RAHHH CHERII I DIDNT SEE THIS TIL NOW GRRGR

god you’re so right. every campaign, the party subverts the expectations they’ve set for themselves and others to let a different kind of like. love? prevail.

i think you can see it most with riptide. the crew doesn’t really plunder and steal that much anymore. they just kinda. be. (and face the horrors and get dragged into wars and)

idk they love each other :(

TBOSAS has me thinking about how Finnick was likely one of the only people alive who knew even some of the story of what happened in the 10th Hunger Games and after. It’s apparent that Snow or the Capitol in general buried any record of the 10th games and Lucy Gray to save face.

However, who knew all of Snow’s darkest secrets and dirty laundry? Finnick. It’s reasonable to assume he probably learned at least part of the story. Not only that but Mags won the 11th games, directly after Lucy Gray’s Games. It is canon that there wasn’t much coverage of the games in the districts but I’m sure even if she didn’t watch them there were likely rumors about it during the next game. And when Snow reappeared as the president she likely remembered his role. And as Finnick’s mentor and mother figure she probably told him a lot.

There’s no real point to this information but I just think it’s very interesting that despite how hard Snow worked to bury his past it probably still lived on. And despite his efforts to control, oppress, and abuse the victors, it was one of these victors who knew his dark past. It was one of the people he tried to control that eventually gained an upper hand over him and helped play a big role in his downfall.
