The Cave at midnight. Cut to Tim, dry-scooping espresso powder straight out of the bottle without looking away from his laptop.

—

Kon, holding the phone closer to his ear and ducking into a closet: so you’re saying Bruce doesn’t do this?

Clark, on the other end of the line: not really. I mean, he drinks coffee sometimes. I’ve actually never counted how many cups he—

Kon: so I just give him more water, right? to dilute it?

Clark: …that sounds right?

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

Soap having to leave the 141. Higher brass wanted him to go deep undercover into a terrorist organization, and he agreed, but didn't want to leave the 141 on a bad note like that. So he requested a transfer.

Years later, he's just come off the op, and Price has invited him to join the 141 again. Soap takes him up on that offer.

When he lands back on base he's greeted by the team, and they go out to have drinks and catch up. By the end of the night it's just him and Ghost, ghost leads him to his old room.

It looks exactly the same. Even the scraps of drawings he hadn't bothered to pick up knowing they'd be cleaned out for the next fellow who took his place on the team.

"What, did Price raise his standards after I left?" He joked.

"Yeah. He did." Then after another moment, "they weren't you."

HOLY SHIT HIS EYES LOOK LIKE FISH

gilliob..

spot the parallels between the chip page challenge

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.

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.

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

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 :(

People say they want morally complex female characters and then they can’t even handle these two
