TRYING AGAIN WITH CLEARER WORDING. PLS READ BEFORE VOTING

imagine: jarthur divorce court

the witch is john’s lawyer

kayne is arthur’s lawyer

they are fighting over custody of yorick. neither of them want him.

kayne requests a jury trial. it will not make things better for arthur’s case, he just likes the drama.

the jury is 12 different arthur corpses from different universes, all mutilated in different ways.

no one is really sure what will happen once they legally separate. kayne reassures them that it will be something interesting. this reassures no one.

judge judy is really confused

Also I think a lot of Satan's verdicts 100% depend on his S/O, at least with some, if not most cases

Like, sure, technically people get a vote

But the people know better than to vote against S/O. He's corrupt like that <3

Satan: What do you think, Wackus Bonkus?

S/O: Kill them.

Satan: Oooh, naughty Wackus Bonkus

Does not matter that the majority voted for no punishment, S/O wants blood, they get blood

Satan might be corrupt but hell has never been freer of corrupt politicians

YES

*court is evenly split on a verdict*

Satan: “Hmmm….What do you think, my Treasure?”

Me: *sitting up in my special little balcony, playing Ace Attorney on my Nintendo switch and sipping a boozey milkshake* 👎👎👎

Satan: DEATH IT IS!!

Meta Jazz, the Arkham Intern Therapist Pt 2.2

Note: Part 2.2! The Bane Incident from Kon's POV! 😁

~*~*~

Two days later, Kon was back at Arkham undercover again. The Bats had caught Bane nearly 12 hours earlier after Red Hood showed up midway through the fight, lept off the overpass, and landed a blow directly to the top of Bane's head with a metal pipe on the way down. The behemoth of a man had crashed hard into the cement, immediately unconscious, and been taken directly to Arkham's medical facilities as soon as he arrived. He'd been checked over and cleared to head to his usual room in less than 15 minutes once he woke up the following afternoon.

Kon found out all of this afterwards. 

He was headed back to the briefing room for his nect assignment after lunch when he spotted four senior guards, Collins, Ryans, Dorr, and Miles, escorting Bane from medical to his usual cell. He stepped into a doorway to let them pass by before continuing on his way. Kon had spent a productive lunch break chatting with Jasmine "please don't call me Fenton" while she waited for Dr. Rylie before he had to head back to the guards room so he wouldn't be late. He'd have to make sure to catch up with Dr. Rylie on the way out at the end of the day instead, Kon mused.

There was a shout behind him. Two bodies slamming hard into the walls on either side of the hall. A rush of fabric sliding across fabric. Rapid pounding footsteps.

Kon spun letting out a gasp as he saw Bane grab Jasmine's upper arm and yank her hard enough to make her stumble. The large man turned to face the guards behind him as he pulled her firmly back against his chest. Kon had the dart gun in his hands and leveled at Bane before he even realized he was moving. Dorr and Ryans had also already done the same. Miles was scrambling to his feet, drawing both his dart gun and baton. Collins slid to the ground, right shoulder visibly dislocated from hitting the wall at the wrong angle but he drew his tranquilizer dart gun as well.

"Weapons down or I'll snap her skinny little neck." Bane growled out, shaking Jasmine as emphasis. Her braid swung from the force of it. 

Kon expected her to panic. He was panicking; a full grown, fully recognized superhero. Of course, he expected her to panic.

But Jasmine didn't. 

Her expression smoothed out turning from barely-there surprise to blank calm in the span of a few seconds. Her breathing stayed deep and even. Her heart beat steady was steady. Was she in some kind of shock? But he had never heard of someone reacting like that to shock before.

"Back up! Let him through!" Dr. Rylie shouted to Kon and the other guards from where he had pressed himself against the wall on the opposite side from Bane. He must have been just a few steps ahead of Jasmine.

"She's my student! Let him through!" Dr. Rylie screamed again. His voice high pitched with fear for his intern. 

Kon didn't know what to do. From the way Ryans and Dorr were exchanging looks, he wasn't sure they knew what the best approach was in this situation either. Of the five of them, Ryans was the most senior guard but he wasn't one of the six guards trained for hostage negotiations either. None of the scenarios they had trained for would work here. Jasmine was too similar in height to Bane for a good shot and a single tranquilizer wouldn't knock him out anyway. They couldn't possibly circle around behind him in this narrow hallway either.

Kon could practically taste the panic building in the air. The tension was rising. If he didn't think fast someone else was going to make the first move and Jasmine would get hurt and -

She sighed.

Long, heavy, and disappointed. It felt like every muscle in Kon's body locked up suddenly.

"Mr. Bane, remove your hands from my person, please. I will give you to one to comply." She said voice calm and heavy like - like she was disappointed in him?

Kon's stared at her bland expression in shock for a moment before his eyes darted back to Bane. The rogue looked momentarily stunned then started laughing.

"Five." Jasmine said, ignoring his laughter. Kon felt himself paling. His colleagues were shifting, white faced with fear as they traded glances again.

"Four." She continued. Bane snorted derisively at her.

"Did you really think that would work?" He asked. His arms tightened around her. There was no way Jasmine was getting out of this without bruises.

"Three." She said ignoring Bane's question. Holy shit. Had she lost her mind?

"What can you even do if I don't?" Bane mocked with a rabid gleam in his eye. He's going to kill her, Kon realized faintly, even if we let him go now he's going to snap her neck for this.

"Two." 

"Jasmine..." Kon whispered pained and horrified by his realization. Loosening his grip on the dart gun without meaning too. She met his gaze across the hall, eyes resolved. 

"One." She finished, brows furrowing slightly in concentration as her lips thinned, pressed together. Bane gave a derisive snort. 

And then the massive man was airborne. 

"Holy shit." Miles breathed out.

Kon stared at the crater in the floor. Collins and Dorr were absolutely silent, hearts racing in their chests. Ryans took a half step forward, heart stuttering - Kon really hoped the man wasn't about to have a heart attack because he could rush him to medical right now. Dr. Rylie was half collapsed against the wall he'd been pressing himself against a strangled sound of shock coming from his throat. Bane was embedded in the floor breath wheezing as Jasmine half knelt on top of his neck. Oh wow, Kon registered, Bane's arm is fucked.

"Now, do you know what you've done wrong?" Jasmine asked looking down at the giant.

"Yes, Ma'am." Bane choked out.

"Fucked with the wrong HBIC." Collins muttered under his breath faintly still stunned.

"Jasmine for president." Miles whispered back automatically.

"Boys," Dorr scolded as he half lowered his dart gun, shifting his weight at the same time.

"Won't be making her angry around that time of month." Ryans mumbled to himself softly enough that Kon was the only person who could have possibly heard him. 

"What did you do wrong?" Jasmine pressed. Collins choked back an inappropriate hysterical giggle at the question. Bane appeared to panic when he realized he'd have to respond. 

No wonder, Kon thought, the man literally grew up in Santa Prisca's prisons. Did he even know how to respond to -Kon choked on air - a maternal scolding?! What the ever loving fuck? He bluescreened. Stood there in the hallway, absolutely stunned, completely unaware of his surroundings as he struggled to process the fact that Jasmine was giving Bane a maternal scolding in the middle of an Arkham hallway right in front of him. Maybe I've finally gone nuts? Kon wondered. 

Jasmine gestured vaguely towards the group of them without turning to look and Kon snapped back to the present. 

"Kyle here is going to take you to see the nurse and then back to your room then. I'm sure you'll behave for him?" Oh shit, that's me she's talking about. Kon walked towards her still a bit numb.

"Yes, Ma'am. I'll behave." Bane answered her. Kon watched as Jasmine stood up carefully and backed away from Bane far enough for him to pull himself out of the crater in the floor. Once he was on his feet, Kon led Bane back towards medical realizing as he did that there had been four other guards behind him this whole time.

Two of them darted forward and scooped up Collins, probably to take him to the guards medical ward along the outer wall patrol route. The other two fell in with Kon, Dorr, Miles, and Ryans. As they walked away Kon could hear Jasmine talking to Dr. Rylie.

"I'm fine, really. My mother was an extremely skilled martial artist. I've been learning from her since I started to walk." She explained honestly, trying to sooth the frazzled doctor's nerves. "I didn't know he was heavy enough to break the floor though!" Jasmine laughed. 

That - heart beat uneven, vocal cords tense - that second part was a lie.

Responses to the Snickers Salad that I brought to the company Thanksgiving lunch break potluck on Friday (chopped granny smith apples and snickers chunks in a fluff mixture of vanilla pudding and cool whip that looks alarmingly like potato salad and which I referred to affectionately multiple times as "lunch lady slop")

"That was... weird. But also weirdly good? We were all standing in a circle back there trying it like '.........huh.'" *mimes eating more*

"That was... a fun experience. Thank you for bringing it. :)"

(accusingly whilst scooping more, as though I have laced it ketamine or something) "Andi, what IS this?! I'm back for THIRDS!"

(overheard between two others, not to me) "Is that a ziploc bag of snickers salad?" "Bro--do NOT judge me bro"

I went home with a nearly empty tub.

Consensus: Peak 50s-60s dessert salad abomination. A sin, a crime against nature. Amusingly, a hit nonetheless, much to the consternation of all who tried it.

This really doesn't have to go on main but I'm putting it here for now:

So uh. Job hunting online for retail positions is definitely an experience. I saw a part time position listing for an office supply store and I think to myself, good! Not a restaurant! I can do office supplies! So I submit the resume/application and then get to the "great, thank you for that! Here are some multiple choice answer questions ranging from word association to number sequences to math problems!"

And I think to myself "great! I'm good with numbers and math and I should be okay associating basic words for this lovely RETAIL POSITION" and then I get the quick and easy practice questions. Wonderfully easy. I've got this. It's neverending and you just have a 10minute time limit to answer as many as possible! No problem!

Then I click "begin" and get slammed with the most ungodly whiplash with the first question being word association about "which of these four words is DIFFERENT" and the options were STRANGLE, PUSH, THROTTLE, and SUFFOCATE.

Hey, uh. Hey retail job. You uh. You okay there? I have some concerns and it was the first question.

The contrast between Tokyo where you had to downgrade elements to win because judges were rightfully so strict on them vs Paris where everyone's questionable elements didn't matter is crazy. In Tokyo Suni had to remove her 4th pass to win AA & Jade had to remove her double L turn to win floor gold. Meanwhile in Paris, Rebeca downgraded Gogean didn't even matter for floor gold cause Simone took 0.6 in OOB ND. Suni downgraded double L turn in AA final didn't matter for bronze because they decided to credit her beam dismount & missed her OOB on vault. Jordan Gogean didn't matter in floor finals cause WTC superior jury decided to accept her inquiry after D panel rightfully downgraded it. Why are we going backwards in routine composition & judging? Like these skills should not have still be in their routines 🫤🫤🫤.

AVA Hollow Heads designs! I'm going to be drawing the colour crew designs next : )

yes the png texture on Victim is intentional

Design notes + Headcanons down below

All of them have some sort of neck wear as you can see. Chosen one has a cape (because he is the chosen one) Dark has this two tailed shawl type thing, Second has a two tailed scarf (get it? because second? two? yeah) and Victim has a turtle neck.

All of their scarves glow when they activate their powers, not because the scarfs are the source of power or anything its just because it looks fancy i think. All of them have had those scarfs since they were first created, its kind of a hollow head thing.

Victim's turtle neck used to be a regular scarf but during his fight with Alan his scarfs tail was cut off by the man himself, resulting in it glitching out and not having any sort of texture or anything (like the transparent png background thing) When his alleged "powers" aren't activated, his scarf is pitch black along side with some other parts of his body, lower legs and arms. Because of his scarf he can't really activate any sorts of powers anymore (or never really got the chance to anyway) so he uses his coat instead. How? well thats... for later...

I wanted to give Victim a more classy look, but i do know that he lives in a very corrupt town and that look is maybe a bit too fancy for him. So he dosen't wear his coat most of the time. Meanwhile, Dark loves walking around like a drag queen as he goes on and terrorizing random people. Chosen? Well he has main character syndrome so his apperance is explainable i suppose- And Second is the actual main character who prefers comfort over looks so he has very comfortable shorts and socks. Second's gloves are also meant to resemble artist gloves cause yk the man draws for a living ((fkin literally)

Victim is the tallest and oldest (29+ yo), Chosen and Dark are twins (24-27 yo) although Chosen is taller than Dark and the only reason why Dark is at the same height as him is because he wears heels, and Second is the youngest and shortest (19-21 yo)

Anyways thats all im gonna drop here for now, hope you like them!

And also i almost forgot to mention, the flower in Victim's little vest pocket is a black rose and black roses mean rebirth, so thats a bit of symbolizm i suppose

Stanley is well aware of the true creatures of Gravity Falls and that is why all his Mystery Shack exhibits are fake

What better way to re-direct people from noticing or searching for the real things when he has evidence of those "real" things".

After the portal incident it didn't take long for Stan to come across the real anomalies living in the woods of Gravity Falls. And where Ford treated them as things to observe and study, Stan decided to actually get to know them. He needed to work on the portal and keep the house in good shape so it was best to get to know the creatures around the house and make sure they would not cause trouble. He also needed to search the woods for the other journals and it was easier to do that when everything living in the forest wasn't trying to ruin his day.

So he did what he did best and he talked. He went into the woods to look for the journals and chatted up everything he met. He now has regular meetings with several of the creatures that live nearby. The manotaurs are great fun to arm wrestle with and compare scars, the multi-bear has great taste in music, and the gnomes were easily pacified to stay out of his garbage with the occasional box of pizza and a new pin-up model calendar each year. The unicorns love to share gossip and scamming strategies. He also reached a truce with the giant, no way was that thing taking his precious stanleymobile!

The fake creatures of the Mystery Shack keep people from looking to hard at the creatures in the woods and that works out well for everyone.

A part of him thinks he could write an entire journal for each creature with the things he knows about them compared to his brother's single page entries. He often wonders how Ford would handle that realization.
