one thing i love about charles is that he's always ready to throw down. no problem is so complex it can't be solved with violence. he looked at this fucked up, illogical world of supernatural horrors beyond comprehension with its myriad complicated rules, where every entity has it's own unique vulnerability and decided that you know what? there actually is a universal solution to every problem called Bash That Thing's Fucking Head In - and it works a solid 99% of the time!

Much like he doesn't care about every lock having a unique key, he doesn't care about the specifics of defeating monsters and nightmares. Yeah he knows all about casting spells, this next one is something called MOLOTOV COCKTAIL

You know, for as many bad ideas the Michael Bey Transformers movies had... Satellite Alt Mode Soundwave was not one of them. Fuckin bring that shit back, it kicks ass.

Dean feeling inferior to Endverse Dean because Endverse Dean founded like 6 different hunter camps and got offered a bunch of territory by a really powerful boss woman with physic powers and therefore got an army.

Just for Dean to then go to Ichabod and charm a powerful boss woman with physic powers to convince an entire trade alliance at the end of the world to give him territory and people to create another hunter base for his army. Under his first year in that world, I must say.

Captain of being oblivious to his own influence AND trying to win competitions against dead versions of himself.

uuuuugh finally back home, after waking up at ass o'clock in the morning twenty-three hours ago to go to the airport

lots of sick people on both my flight to and back, but hopefully I will not be joining the legion of the sick

(though on that note, @carebooks had a sick-themed ask that I'm very keen on getting to in the morning)

I was thinking about Kate and Milligan (as usual) but specifically about what Kate calls Milligan. Because he's Milligan to her, but that doesn't make him any less her dad, but she doesn't call him Dad, yknow?

How did it go? Was it an unspoken agreement where they just knew and understood the other despite just having met as father and daughter for the first time? Did she just bounce up to him and go "I'm not calling you Dad. You're Milligan and you're going to stay Milligan." and did he reply "Alright, Katie-Cat" without even a twinge of hurt because it's just so right? He just found his daughter, how could he ever be sad about anything ever again?

Or- maybe it wasn't that easy? Maybe she bounced up to him, and everything felt right, but he couldn't help but wonder... and so he went to the one place he always knew he could go when he felt lost. When he presented his troubles to Mr. Benedict - "No, it's going great, but I can't help wondering ... she doesn't want to call me Dad. Which is fine, of course, but ... maybe she doesn't see me in that way?" - when he presented his troubles to Mr. Benedict, how long did he laugh and slump unconscious for, before waking up and apologizing profusely, before helping Milligan sort it all out. (Which really meant sort himself out. Kate had it all figured out, apparently.)

Or- did she try at first? Did she try to press at a puzzle piece that just wouldn't fit? Her dad left. He left a long time ago and she's lived with that her whole life. But - her Milligan is here now. Could he ever understand?

Or- maybe it just slipped out one day, years down the line? When she was teasing him - "Extra coat, Kate, it's brisk out!" / "Da-ad, I'm nearly sixteen, you know, you don't need to-" - did they both freeze? Did she not realize what she'd done until she was halfway down the sidewalk? Did she catch him wiping at his eyes and blowing his nose? Did she tuck that away in her back pocket for later?

Just. It's all good, ya know?

I'm imagining Cass and Gale attending a rave now and the image makes me so happy.

They would love raving so much.

The b1 droids are incredibly concepted characters because their goal is to get endlessly cut down pushed off cliffs etc in droves like they’re cannon fodder you don’t have to feel bad about the good guys mowing down in waves. And yet they’re cutes+endlessly endearing every moment they’re on screen. Like deliberately undoing the work you set up so they could die in droves painlessly. Jedi Survivor featuring them as an especially chatty enemy and finding a way to write them in like a decade after the clone wars ended was inspired.

Hi ummm I absolutely adore your Kiraboss art, your style is so cute and I’m really jealous of how you draw lol. Do you have any advice on artistic burnout, and how to motivate yourself to draw again when you feel tired or discouraged?

Hiya, I'm pleased you like my kiraboss stuff and my paswg-clone-moe-art style. ☻ I can share my perspective on le artistic burnout, which I'm not sure I can guarantee is the optimal approach but seems fairly sensible on my end: if I don't feel like drawing, I just don't draw. Given that it's a hobby and not a job with stakes to procrastinate on, I would occupy myself with something else until I feel like it again, no matter how long it takes. I believe one's artistic ability is very patient and it will welcome you again at whichever point you return to the paper as long as you are in a good mindset to enjoy it. Drawing is meant to be fun, so if it ever becomes a compromising task, it's probably worth the break. I find that it's often pretty visible in a work when its artist enjoyed its process in making it.

the episode where Erik finds out he's the twins father coming directly after the episode where Charles finds out Moira had a child she never told him about has got to be some sort of one two punch for the man

Saw a post where people in the notes were arguing that behavior is only manipulative if it's intentional and planned, and tried to "prove" it with, like, Baby's First Example Of Manipulation ("if you don't do xyz, I'm gonna do abc.") and it's been ten minutes and it's still giving me hives. They were literally like "do we need to take 'manipulative' away and put it on the shelf" because they don't understand what manipulative behavior is.

Look if you (generic) think manipulative behavior has to be conscious, intentional, and planned, you are absolutely clueless and ripe for being manipulated. People can be i.n.s.a.n.e.l.y. manipulative without realizing they're doing it, and not recognizing that is, frankly, dangerous.

Signed, someone who has been repeatedly abused by people who certainly thought they weren't manipulative BUT ABSOLUTELY WERE.
