Seasons: Harvest

And Fall, with her yeller harvest moon and the hills growin' brown and golden under a sinkin' sun.

Pub Day Review: "Four Against the West" by Joe Pappalardo

Growing up as the child of parents who liked to watch old Westerns and then growing into a passion with a passion for history, I had a vague idea of who Judge Roy Bean was when I saw this book available to request on NetGalley, and all those things combined to make it a book I wanted to read. Having known next to nothing about James, Sam, and Joshua Bean, the book became all the more…

狐の窓

i have this hc that the rest of the batkids are getting comfortable in going to Jason and Roy's place, and just know that Jason won't get mad because of Lian's presence.

[i promised myself i won't make the scenerios too long]

---

Jason walks out the room to get some water from the kitchen, when he hears the kitchen cabinet open.

and viola, it's Tim and Steph opening a box of fruit loops cereal.

Jason, tries to keep his voice low: What in the actual fuckery are you both doing here in the middle of the night?

Steph, munching on some food, raises both of her hands: This was Tim's idea. I'm innocent.

Tim, shrugs: Lian said I could have some of her fruit loops.

Jason: I swear, Replacement, I'm going to-

Lian, walking from behind the counter, rubs her eyes: Don't be mad, Jayjay. I told Uncle Tim and Aunt Steph they could take some of my food.

Jason, frustrated at this point: Did you wake her up?

Tim and Steph both shake their heads.

Roy, from their room: Jaaaaaybird, let the kids eat!

Jason, sighing, takes Lian's hand slowly: Let's get you back to bed, Princess.

Lian, sleepily: Don't forget to add to the swear jar, Jayjay.

Tim and Steph laugh quietly by the time Jason and Lian disappear for their sights, and continue to eat.

---

at 5 in the morning, Roy shrieks from the hallway. Jason immediately goes out to check.

Roy, a hand on his chest: Damn it. Cass scared the living hell out of me.

Jason, raises his brow: Cass???

Roy points to the living room. Cass is sitting comfortably on the couch, still in her Black Bat suit, but cowl off. Lian has her head on her lap as Cass runs her fingers softly on her hair.

Cass looks up at the two men, but doesn't say anything. then smiles down as she sings a low lullaby to Lian.

Jason: Uh, I think it's best if we let her be.

Roy, nods: I agree.

---

as Jason and Roy are getting comfortable on bed, Lian knocks on their bedroom door.

Jason: I already put her to bed. I think it's the chocolate milk, Roy. She gets a little hyper before bed.

Roy, getting up from his position, chuckles: Maybe munchkin got hungry. Again.

Jason chuckles with him, putting the blanket higher on his upper body.

Jason is not too sure, but he dozes off for a few minutes. and reaches for Roy on his side, but he isn't there. thinking, Lian did get hungry, he stands up from the bed and exits the room.

he should have just continued to sleep.

on the couch, there's Dick, still in his suit, a few bruises on his face and a bandaged leg, and Duke, on his suit as well, a few bruises on his face too, but no bandages whatsoever. Lian is sat between them as the three of them watch an animated show on the television.

Jason, standing a distance from the couch, crosses his arms on his chest: Last time I checked, this is supposed to be a private apartment for three people. This isn't a vacation home-

in sync, Dick, Duke and Lian shush him, their eyes glued on the screen.

Roy laughs from the kitchen.

Jason, approaches him: What's going on here?

Roy, wipes his hands on the kitchen towel: Lian let them in. Dick is injured-

Jason: Good.

Roy, pulls Jason close by the waist: Dick, your brother, is injured. I patched him up. Duke thought it was a good idea for them to stop by here to rest.

Jason: And they're ruining Lian's sleeping hours.

Roy, kisses his temple: It's a Saturday, Jaybird.

Jason, murmurs: Sure.

Roy, smiles: You're such a dad now.

Jason blushes, hiding his face on Roy's shoulder.

---

as Roy brings Jason on top of him, they hear Lian's loud giggles from outside their room.

Jason, looks down at Roy: I thought she's asleep already.

they both stand up to check on Lian.

and it's her and Damian on the living room floor, a kitten between them. the kitten is wrapped with Robin's cape.

Jason: Looks like the brat found another kitten.

Jason and Roy stare lovingly at the scene for a few minutes. Lian smiles brightly, patting the kitten gently. Damian is also smiling, caressing the animal on his arms.

Your profile picture is incredible do you have more like it

Thank you, I do! I did a whole bunch of spooky month style sun and moon drawings a while ago before i got tumblr! Here’s all of them starting with my pfp

i'm just imagining what it must have been like being havoc in that hospital room after the Lust fight. like, you've just discovered homunculi exist and that your ex(?) girlfriend was one, and then she stabbed you. you're still processing that one because you know in a creeping realisation sort of way that it's Really Bad. meanwhile your CO who also got stabbed but proceeded to Burn Himself Alive in order to save your life, his life and everyone else's lives (by k wording your girlfriend) is in the bed next to yours.

and you're just laying there, listening as your coworker, who's the most steady, level headed person you know, confesses to your CO that she heard he was dead and just. had a complete and utter breakdown. just gave up utterly on life and was ready to let the homunculus kill her dead. because she wasn't willing to go on living if your CO wasn't alive. like, what do you even do with that?

oh yeah, and as you're laying there real quiet pretending you don't exist, your CO's response to this is basically "ok don't do it again." i mean really, what do you even do with that???

The shorter styles are especially obvious with Chase and Wuya, but even Hannibal's little spindly strings of a combover are shorter and more sparse than before

...So Jack forcibly gave all three of them a haircut?

Xiaolin Showdown is weird for a lot of reasons, but lovable for more. But something fascinating to me is that only one main villain is actually evil. You've got: Jack Spicer, who just wants to be taken seriously and thinks world domination would give him that. Wuya, who is so lonely that even when she rules the world, she does everything she can to keep her one companion. Chase Young, who was manipulated into drinking evil soup and can't really stop without dying. And Hannibal Roy Bean, who is actually evil, tricked Chase into drinking the evil soup, and wants to cause death, chaos, and destruction.

I couldn’t resist, 12 hour flight who are you sitting by?

[izscha]

You're a casting director. You have to pick one of the Xiaolin Showdown villains to star in your hair product commercial. All the others will know you snubbed them for the role.

Who are you picking?

this was a fun thing to draw (ft my sona for this blog)

Hypothetical Season 4 is officially ready to go!!

With Raimundo’s promotion to Shoku Warrior, the Monks have been entrusted with more responsibilities representing the Xiaolin temple around the world. New jobs have led to old tensions as Raimundo tries to become a good leader and Omi attempts to find his new place in the group. As new and old threats arise and the lines between good and evil start to blur, will the four Dragons be able to keep themselves together or will these new expectations become too much?

Episode 1 will drop officially in a few weeks and from there I’ll have everything posting in a 2 week posting schedule!

But, in preparation for that, please enjoy a soundtrack to go with this season:

Some additional non-important information about this hypothetical season 4 is under the cut for anyone interested in more of the thought process behind these stories, Season Tags, and Main characters/relationships. However some info contains spoilers so fair warning!

I really wanted to write these stories as if I was actually writing episodes so there were a few things I kept in mind while writing:

1) making each episode its own individual thing which means they will be posted separately instead of as chapters.

2) length. I tried to set myself a min-max of 7000 to 10000 words per episode which worked out for most of the episodes.

3) rating. While it was tempting to add in some more adult plot points to this story I ultimately realized it wasn’t at all what I wanted the spirit of this work to be, so I ended up writing this with the shows rating in mind and what was likely to be permitted to actually be shown in a kids cartoon.

4) character development. I really wanted to focus on character growth and rounding out a lot of the cliff-hangers we were left on in Season 3. That means this season focuses on rounding out three main character arcs:

Hannibal and his plans

Raimundo’s promotion to leader

Omi dealing with everything from the “Time after Time” episodes

And, just some tags to give everyone a feel of what to expect:

Main Characters: Omi, Raimundo Pedrosa, Kimiko Tohomiko, Clay Bailey, Chase Young, Hannibal Roy Bean, Master Monk Guan

Main Relationships: Clay Bailey & Omi & Raimundo Pedrosa & Kimiko Tohomiko, Omi & Chase Young, Clay Bailey & Master Monk Guan, Clay Bailey & Hannibal Roy Bean

Tags: Gray Morality, Falling Apart, Rivals Team Up, Historical Mythology, World Expansion, Deal with the Devil, Overarching Evil Plans, Unreliable Narrator
