#The Ice-Breaking Game

[arrowheadedbitch]

New idea: Shinsou is supposed to be babysitting Eri but he has to do something so he leaves Denki in charge for a little bit, he comes back expecting the house to be burnt down but instead he finds Eri begging Kaminari to let her re-dirty up her room so they can clean it together again

I hate when people make the claim that Helaena suffered the most during the Dance of the Dragons.

I'd argue Baela suffered infinitely more.

She saw all of her cousins, the children she grew up with, die. She had her fiance since she was a toddler die. Her father died after she hadn't seen him in nearly a year. She was left completely alone in Dragonstone, her whole family separated. Her mother figure/stepmother, who had always been in her life, died. Her youngest brother was presumed dead for years. Her dragon was killed, and she was imprisoned by Aegon II. She never became Queen, and to avoid being forcibly married off, she married a legitimised Alyn and became the Lady of Driftmark. Where she then gets cheated on repeatedly.

[idkaguyorsomething]

Kidnappings, murders, crime rings, there’s all kinds of crimes for the boys to solve, even if this next case of theirs is gonna take them a bit out of their district.

¡Reblog and explain where you sent them and why in the tags!

Potential Stannis / Agamemnon parallel

I can't find the source for the claim that Stannis will burn Shireen in the books, but really I just wanna yap about the potential parallels between Stannis and Shireen, and Agamemnon and Iphigenia.

I have seen a lot of the argument that "Stannis wouldn't do that" mainly based on the "pray harder" quote, but GUYS that's the point! Grrm loves a tragedy!

So quick recap of the Iphiginia thing:

Helen of Troy, yada yada thousand ships about to launch, someone kills a sacred deer, they can't leave until Agamemnon sacrifices his daughter Iphigenia to Artemis.

So if Grrm were to take inspiration from the Iphiginia myth, then a few parallels that could be pointed out would be;

both are strong, war competent kings, leading a large army that is now stuck.

in order to continue, they both need to sacrifice a beloved daughter to a god

How I Bet That Capitals-Senators Break After The Second Period Actually Went

Nicke: [taking a break from watching the Wizards haplessly yakety-saxing around the Capital One Arena floor to check his phone and see the Capitals haplessly yakety-saxing around the ice at the Canadian Tire Centre]

Nicke: [sending a variety of angry emojis and texts to the groupchat]

Nicke: [private text to Ovi that simply reads Check your remaining goal numbers]

Nicke: [private text to both Stromer and Carlson that reads Tell Ovi his goal numbers to go for the record because let's face it he knows they're the ones who actually keep track]

Ovi: [told exact number and doing mental relationship math] Shit I better score.

And there you have it.

I bought three things of Ice Cream Mochi from Day Break and it was €49 but I didn’t know because the pricing was written in Japanese.

Also, Satan was there and he also thought it was a rip off.

I was playing Cards Against Humanity with @helphowdoiusethis.

#22.2 Tags

Endorsi tapped her shoe impatiently. "And the prize is?"

"You can exchange it for some points, or use these tags to get private time with a person of your choice." Mask winked at no one in particular. "I know some of you are friends with Bam and Grace. And given that you haven't seen them for years, perhaps you might have something that needs to be said privately. There will be a buffet held after the game, and everyone can talk and socialize freely then. But let me tell you this; the chance of you having a private face to face conversation with them after today will be very low. So be sure to use this opportunity well."

Endorsi suddenly remembered the date that Bam owed her. Maybe this could be her chance? Having Bam for herself sounded fair enough to be considered a date. She wondered how much Bam had changed, and she was curious if she still held the same feelings towards him. Guess she would find out soon.

"Note that they're only valid until today. The white tags are worth three minutes each, while the black ones are worth ten minutes."

Endorsi wanted to throw hands. "The heck?! That's too short!" She quickly decided that the private date time wasn't worth it.

"Not interested." Anaak stated plainly, having the same thought. 

"Oh, that's not all." Mask called out his nearby lighthouse and the screen lit up. "I did say that these tags could also be exchanged for some points."

The amounts displayed on Mask's lighthouse made Endorsi's eyes bulge. Sure, it was still comparable to her monthly earnings, but one day of photoshoots wasn't even worth that much. This guy must be filthy rich in order to be able to give out much. "However, there will only be four black stickers in total."

She hadn't even started to do the math when Shibisu raised his hand. "Why four? There are six people on your team."

"Good question." Mask motioned to himself and the other three guys that she didn't bother to remember the names of. "Only us four will participate in the tag game. Grace and Bam don't have tickets because they have a different role."

Endorsi raised an eyebrow, not that she actually cared.

"Remember that those that don't have the tag during the game will be unable to move? Grace and Bam are in charge of it. They will also make sure that this game will not cause any major casualties to the players."

Endorsi suddenly remembered that Bam could use reverse flow control. Grace however…she didn't know much about him. She realized that Grace was surprisingly tight-lipped about his past, for someone who was bad at lying. Thinking back about it, he was absent during the crown game, and he hadn't shown anything noteworthy during the hide and seek game. Bam often bragged about how Grace helped him in class, though, so maybe he was that capable? It wasn't so hard to believe; Grace always looked so self-assured and dependable.

However, there was something different about how he treated her compared to the others, like how he quickly looked away when she caught his gaze, or how he was slightly nervous when talking to her. But she always reasoned that it was only natural that men would fall for her beauty and status, since she was a Jahad princess and all. When she took into account that Grace was already taken, it made even more sense on why he was so awkward and conflicted when interacting with her. She had to admit it was really fun to tease him back then, though she never called him out on it.

"Are there any other questions?" Mask asked, pulling her out of her thoughts.

Khun and Isu asked for some clarifications on the rules, but Endorsi tuned them out, too busy indulging in the thought of the prize points. One black and one white tag should be enough to buy the designer dress she saw the other day. And since Laure most likely wasn’t interested in anything other than sleep, could she ask him to give her his tag so she could use it with Grace? It would be really fun to take Grace away from Mask and make him jealous. Speaking of Mask…

"Five minutes–" Endorsi caught his words– "to discuss amongst yourselves before I start the game."

One of the floating blue lighthouses started a five-minute countdown, and Khun called everyone to gather. However, Endorsi decided to spare a glance to where Mask went.

She saw Mask greeted his team who had started doing warm up moves, while some were not so subtly glancing in her direction. Mask then started typing on his lighthouse, and she saw the training room slowly turned into a fighting stage with just a few commands of his hands. The barrier that covered the room pulsed as if being strengthened, moving platforms and obstacles were created out of thin air–

Khun cleared his throat, and Endorsi noticed she wasn't the only one that was watching the room transformation unfold. "Okay. Listen up everyone."

[necrotic-nephilim]

in lieu of having posted any writing/headcanons/asks in the past few days because i have been *so* busy and unable to do anything fandom-related which is terrible and evil, i have a poll out of morbid curiosity and self-indulgence. i've been meaning to ramble here about how i feel about DC's lack fo Deaf representation and which Batfam members i would personally make Deaf, but i am mildly curious about the larger opinion and now i will subject you all to the question, i would love to hear thoughts/opinions/headcanons on any specific choices. (would love d/Deaf/HoH opinions esp but i'm mostly expecting this to reach the hearing crowd, so opinions from hearing ppl are ones i'm very curious about. if you've never given it thought before you are going to now or else /lh)
