None of our hands are clean
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#jin guangshan#mianmian#The secret meaning behind one of the jin members scuttling off is:#I couldn't make three people work out in the remaining panels and per my rule of '3 attempts and take a different approach' he had to go.#Sometimes there are meaningful reasons why something happens in the background. And sometimes it is like this.#Let's just say he saw what was about to happen and got out of there before mianmian started throwing hands.#Okay no more delay. The sheer boldness to call WWX a killer in a room full of people who wear their war body count as a badge...#It's about hypocrisy yes - but it is also about how the narrative shifts on the same action depending on the frame.#Because at the end of the day...the blood on our hands is still blood on our hands.#Both the deaths on the battlefield and the deaths of the Jin's abusing the Wen remnants are still deaths caused by another.#They are also deaths that - depending who holds the frame - are noble acts to protect others.#But it isn't supposed to be about who was right and who was wrong.#It is about the need to be seen as the victim to avoid culpability.#Because if you aren't responsible you don't have to be held accountable. You don't have to grow or change.#If someone takes all the blame then there is no need to reflect on your own faults.#We have to protect our fragile ego from the mirror lest it shatter and we have to remake it anew.#Horrifically enough...even if WWX spared the Jin guards or even never ran into Wen Qing#He wouldn't have been able to escape being the scapegoat. He downfall was set into motion a long time ago.#My goodness...What a deliciously tragic story Wei Wuxian's first life was.

Blood Blossom Au: Baby's First Commissioner Meeting :)
TL:DR This Post: Danny (orphan) gets poisoned with blood blossom extract by Vlad. He runs away from him and ends up under the care of one Pre-Robin Battinson Batman! Starry is loudly pushing her batdad agenda.
(Also known as "Late At Night, When The Nightingale Sings" on my ao3!)
This was a fun rough idea I've been sitting on for weeks, thinking about how Commissioner Gordon and Nightingale's first meeting might go.
---------------
Commissioner Gordon likes to think that he's adjusting to the new normal of Gotham very well, -- the new normal being grown men running around dressed like bats, in military-grade strength body armor, committing acts of vigilantism, -- and slowly, little by little, he was no longer being surprised when this new normal pops up out of the shadows like the world's most terrifying daisy. His shaving lifespan thanks him for it.
....
The kid is a surprise though.
Granted, he seemed to be a surprise to the Bat too.
There's been a string of murders lately, -- which, in Gotham, is kind of like saying there's been another storm during monsoon season. And there's just been another; in some dilapidated building down in south Gotham, with the broken, boarded-up windows and mildew-crawling walls to match. The victim is a man in his thirties, multiple gunshot wounds to the chest, left in the center of the room for the blood to pool out around him.
The place is already secured when he arrives, the building swarmed with officers and the forensic detectives. The Bat emerges shortly after he does -- or, he might've been here the whole time, hiding someplace dark and shadowy. For his own sanity, Gordon doesn't think about it too hard.
The kid is a surprise, and he appears like a bolt of lightning.
He shows up in the middle of a conversation Gordon is having with the Bat.
A whistle, sharp and loud, slicing through the air, meant for open air rather than a confined space. Gordon's ears pierce and protest the sound, and the solemn, murmured chatter floating through the room abruptly cuts off like the swing of a gavel. As he turns towards the sound -- as they all do -- he swears, up and down, that he sees Batman's shoulders jump, just slightly.
At the source, perched on the window, is a boy. A boy in a gray-blue scarf and an oversized black hoodie, one that hangs off his frame and has ace bandages wrapped around the wrists in some attempt to cinch the sleeves. The hood is up, big like the rest of it, and threatens to swallow the upper half of the boy's face whole in the fabric. What upper half Gordon can see, is smeared with some kind of opaque, black face paint. He's holding onto the side of the frame with one hand, on his hip is a grappling hook. A familiar grappling hook.
Gordon has multiple questions, and his officers tense up.
Martinez puffs up, brows furrowing as his face shapes into a frown. Shoulders rolling back. "You can't be here, kid--"
The reaction is immediate, like a spark to gunpowder, the boy yanks his fingers from his mouth and his mouth twists into a scowl. Head snapping over to Officer Martinez, his hood manages to stay on but Gordon swears that as he bares his teeth, the glint makes them look sharper than they should be. His voice is rasp and quiet and harsh; snappish in its hissing; "Put a fuckin sock in it, Martinez. I'm not stayin."
Martinez reels back, and the boy immediately veers his attention off him. Like a switch, his demeanor drops. Despite half his face being covered, his mouth twists into a cringing, apologetic smile. Slanted and off-beat, embarrassed. It'd be disarming if this wasn't Gotham, and if he didn't just hiss at Martinez like he was about to bite his head off.
"Sorry." He whispers, voice deceptively polite and softer now. Gordon has to strain his ears to hear him. "I was looking for him."
He points his finger towards-- Gordon? No, Gordon follows the direction, and finds himself looking at -- the Bat.
The Bat, who always looks stiff as a pole, now looks even stiffer. Somehow. Well, the explains the grappling hook attached to the boy's waist.
"What are you doing here?" The Bat says, gruff and unable to completely smother the stumble of surprise in his tone.
The boy still holds a sheepish smile, and slips off the window ledge. His feet hit the creaky boards with a near-silent thud, the Batman finds his feet and rapidly begins crossing the room.
Gordon notes the slight tremble in the boy's legs as he straightens. He adjusts his scarf, which droops close to his knees now that he's standing, and slings a backpack -- how long has had that? -- off his shoulders. When the Bat reaches his side, he does as he always does, and looms over the boy like a spectre. A threatening mass of shadows cloaked in all-consuming black. Standing next to him, the boy looks teeny in comparison.
The Bat is a man who terrifies even the most hardened criminals, Gordon has seen grown men shiver in fear at the mention of his name. And yet when the boy looks up at him, he doesn't even flinch.
Instead, his sheepish smile melts away like ice under the sun, holding only traces of his previous embarrassment. It remains as a shadow on his face, a small upturn at the corners of his mouth. The boy pushes his hood back just enough to reveal glinting, ice-flint eyes surrounded in tar-black face paint. He holds the backpack up with one arm. "You forgot this."

The interpretation of Rise Raph as a 'perfect responsible soft boy uwu' is so BORING I'm sorry, Raph is a rowdy adrenaline junkie with anxiety and I won't take this slander any longer
Raph secretly kept an enemy soldier in their actual literal house as a sparring partner. Raph glued his brothers together and dragged them out to fight crime. Raph once asked Leo to punch him in the face to prove he 'takes damage like a boss.' Raph tried to lift a school bus, twice. Raph offered to help his favorite wrestler beat his little brother up. When Leo suggests evacuating Bullhop, Raph says no bc the best defense is a good offense babey. Raph's idea of a 'friendly chat' with April's upstairs neighbor is to put on a black ski mask and go stand menacingly at their door. It takes Raph 10 episodes to conclude that they should MAYBE start training. Raph's plan to get a potentially priceless (and potentially FRAGILE) museum artifact is to punch a car in the middle of a busy street and also cut it in half with his brother still inside.
Raph's never met a problem he wouldn't try to punch in the face and does not know the meaning of the words 'excessive force.' He roughhouses with his bros and drags them out to fight villains and thinks any plan that doesn't involve an all-out brawl is boring and lame. He'll do anything to protect his family from harm and be a hero, but also he eats wet salami off the floor and once single-handedly destroyed a library.
I just adore how, at his core, Rise Raph is such a classic Raph—impulsive and stubborn and caring and passionate. He is a very sweet, strong, honorable guy who has a very powerful sense of personal responsibility... and he is also the exact kind of jock who throws you in the pool at a party without checking if you have your phone in your pocket first.
#rottmnt#rottmnt raph#raph#don't worry then he'll freak out and buy you a new one#anyway! raph rules!!!!!#and i think the movie has made some people interpret him as like the 'responsible mom' character which is a bummer#bc that's really not him at all#like this is not even NEARLY a complete list of raph's shenanigans#he's a hooligan a fool a dumbass (affectionate)#he loves big flashy exciting fights and does not spare a single thought to stealth 90% of the time#he gets distracted on missions taking selfies with pizza pigeons and wrestlers#and gets annoyed in eps like Bug Busters when leo suggests being more cautious#he would die for his brothers but also he's definitely the type to like. walk into their rooms and sit on them for fun#he values responsibility so much but also makes the most batshit decisions ever#and has probably caused the state of new york thousands of dollars in damages#and he's NOT the boys' dad jesus christ#he grows slightly more serious over the course of the series (out of stress :(()#but at his core he's just a kid who loves fighting and being a hero#and i love him so much ok!!!!!!

in the sims i'm playing a w/w couple in the southeast asian town and when they moved in together one of the women brought her boyfriend with her and i made them all polyamorous to boost their income and so he can help them have bio kids but the game doesn't let 3 people sleep in a bed together so i put the guy in a single bed off to the side while the women get a nice double bed and there's something so funny about seeing the boyfriend sleeping in the corner in a single bed
#hes really big like thick and muscular so seeing him in the tiny bed alone is so funny#multiple beds in one room also reminds me of my dads house in malaysia like rooms where theres just beds positioned in any spare corner

Neither yoga nor getting personal are Bonnie's strong suits.
Bonnie: I don't know about this, Lu.
Lu: Babe, you're literally frowning in your sleep. You'll have a heart attack if you don't release all that stress.
Bonnie: If anything, this is stressing my clumsy ass out even more! Nope, nope, nope, nope.
Lu: You could at least try taking your shoes off.
Bonnie: That isn't helping! My body's built for ridin' horses, Lu, not twistin' itself into a goddamn human pretzel!
Lu: [sighs heavily] Fine. Have it your way. You know, we might be able to sell some of this old junk. It's just taking up space. Wait a minute. This isn't junk. Whose instruments are these?
Bonnie: [uneasily] They were my parents'. From back when they tried to make it as a country duo.
Lu: Bonnie, your parents had a band? How did I not know that? You barely tell me anything about them. We should dust this baby off. Start a band of our own.
Bonnie: Can you even play?
Lu: Sorta.
Bonnie: Good luck bookin' that stage, hon.
#ts4#sims 4#ts4 gameplay#sims 4 gameplay#gp: bonnie & lu#bonnie mcdaniel#lu kemp#praline the cat#for those who haven't been around bonnie's parents died when she was a kid and her grandparents raised her#so it's naturally very hard for her to think about them :(#but this is one of my favorite posts#i think they're so sweet 💗#and they'll need to fill that spare room up with something if they clean it out👀#they'll be on a bit of a hiatus while i focus on l&d gameplay but i do like dipping in and out with them every once in a while!#i also had an idea to make bonnie's parents and do a cute little flashback edit but idk if i'll find the time

Hiii everyone, say, how do your Hawkes go go about sharing their estate? If they do it at all? Is everyone free to come and go or are they more private? Or do they only invite their LI to stay? I'm curious!! :)
#lay rambles#my ocs#oc: liam hawke#oc: lilian hawke#both my hawkes are very social w their friends but i love comparing their boundaries around it#theres variation in rules for specific ppl with both of them ofc but theres still general differences#with liam its all very open and everyone can p much come and go whenever#they dont get extra keys (theyll get lost and he doesnt want randos finding them lol) but they know where to find the spare key#and bodhan and sandal and orana know to let them in whenever#hes very lenient in this this regard but he does have rules abt what he does and doesnt want them to do#mostly its about not making too much of a mess lol bc liam prefers to clean himself#(he doesnt trust the crew with his household and also he has particular ways of doing things and Hates when theyre done differently)#so things like keep your dirty garb at the entrance dont cook by yourselves (this was banned after they did it one (1) time lol) etc#also no fucking allowed. do that somewhere else for the love of the maker he does NOT want to walk into that in his own house#(and it also comes back to liam not trusting them with cleaning but also Not wanting to clean that up lol)#also he is not fond of them going into his room uninvited. most of the house is chill but that is *his* space#he accommodates these rules by e.g. having spare slippers and a little washing basin in the entrance hall for dirty shoes/feet#always makes sure to have snacks in stock that he knows they like#food will have notes abt what to leave for leandra/orana/etc but otherwise food is prepared with his friends in mind#and in general he'll make sure to adjust the space/routine in little ways to accommodate them#(air out when fen isnt there cus he doesnt like drafts; keep curtains open cus anders prefers open spaces; etc)#lilian on the other hand doesnt like when her friends come into the estate without a heads up (cept for emergencies)#but once they have her 'ok' its basically mi casa es su casa#dont yknow. overdo it and get too rowdy but otherwise do whatever#however. she also expects everyone to clean up after themselves. she aint here to play maid and youre all adults#also liam has a general 'please try to not be too wild when leandra is here' and lilian doesnt#not cos she doesnt care but cos leandra is bothered by sth she can speak up herself#oh and lilian uses the basement space as temporary refuge for anyone who needs it (mostly escaped mages)#also side note: both offered gamlen to stay but he refused (out of pride/remorse)#...this got long and i ran out of tag space lmfao so this is it for now xD

for various reasons I feel pretty confident that in the Knuckles show/Sonic 3 they're gonna reveal that Knuckles and Tails are sharing the attic with Sonic, but honestly? tf they mean this house doesn't have ONE spare bedroom???
#various reasons include:#its a kids series and stuff for kids tends to push the 'siblings sharing a room is fun' agenda#also its easier than having to create a new set design/set#also it'd be weird if the new kids/one of the new kids got their own bedroom when they put Sonic in the attic#ALSO it's implied that Sonic lived in his cave for a while?? after the events of the first movie??#and they dressed up the attic with his stuff as a surprise??#so like... if they acknowledge a spare bedroom then they gotta say why they didn't just let sonic use that#instead of making him go back to his cave#and don't even get me started on how tf a sheriff and a vet can afford the small towns' version of a luxury home#maybe they can afford it cuz nobody's buyin a house that big that's only got one bedroom >_>#can you tell im salty about this house#anyway#scu#wachowski family#knuckles wachowski#sonic wachowski#tails wachowski#give them their own rooms propaganda

What are 3 things that are nice around you? We gotta remember that positives exist
tagged by @howlingmoonrise - <3
bingley! the sweetest, stupidest little guy. traded all his braincells for soft; definition of eyes closed three paws can't lose.
my fancy bitch (not really)(kinda) mechanical keyboard, which has a set of lotus ink painting caps from aliexpress and delights me immensely.
a tin of danish butter cookies, which actually (currently) contains cookies, and not sewing supplies.
no pressure tags: @qilingxiong, @lianhuajing, @bettercostume, @junemermaid
yes pressure tags: @a-memory-a-distant-echo
Cat tax: mr beeps himself, asleep in the plush cat bed,apparently unbothered by the heat despite the fact it's like 34 fucking degrees °C
#waters words#tag games#I would have counted my wife (my WIFE!! idiot fuckin married me. lmao. terrible choice on their part but gr8 for me)#but they are asleep still so. they are actually not in the room rn.#also sort of thinking about swapping the switches out on my keyboard#(which is a skyloong gk104 currently on the silent ruellia switches which have ~50g actuation#if any of you...uh.. care about that sort of thing and aren't my wife who already knows)#if I can find anything that fits in the tiny venn overlap of tactile +#not as loud as a fucking gattling gun next to your ear#+ an actuation force of min 50g but ideally closer to like. 70g+.#and not like nine billion dollars for a full set.#AND in stock anywhere that doesn't cost one squillion dollars for shipping that will take eleven thousand years.#(I want them quiet because I don't actually want the sound I just need the feedback to... know when a key is actually pressed#and not feel like I'm sticking my hands repeatedly into mashed potato filled with like. teeth.#my wife who shares the office would - reasonably! - skin me alive if I went back to cherry green level volume tho.#or like. they wouldn't. because they're a nice person.#but they would be attempting to develop psychic powers to explode me with their brain just like. subconsciously.)#(holy grail is like. dead silent tactiles with an actuation of ~70-80g ish but uh. that is... physically impossible or close to. so.)#you are all being spared the much bigger wall of text about shit I'm doing to my phone. so.

what if i relistened to every w.bg episode and tried to figure out the floorplans of the over cabins
#you can see a spare (?) room from the backdoor (season 10 knowing what i know now with mikey seeing mikey getting killed)#the hallway leads to the backdoor??#the bathroom is across from the bedroom and certain cabins have that flipped#there is a kitchen with a table#these observations may seem simple but you see. i dont often go into “cabins” and i'm not even quite sure what a “cabin” entails#hunter mentions certain kitchens are too small and you can't open the dishwasher all the way?#also theres like a junk/laundry room? the one with peter the mouse#there is a bedside table next to the bed

stumbled across this old pre-s5 post and it got me thinking about the differences between Claudia/Terry and Callum/Rayla in S5 specifically in regards to the "let's save your parents" angle
Now some of this on the surface difference is because all Claudia cares about is keeping her father alive and saving him ("That's the only thing that matters - keep moving!") whereas Rayla routinely puts her family on the back burner ("But I can't help you yet" / "Not yet, Callum") but like
Terry and Callum each prioritize their partner's needs. For Terry, that means putting Claudia above Viren ("Everyone needs rest, especially you") and then on the same level (finding a way for her to rest and for them to keep moving at the same time). For Callum, it means prioritizing Rayla's parents and what she wants even when she's telling him not to (5x04) even though it leads to more disastrous consequences because he doesn't have an 'off' switch.
#icarus callum can be so personal to me#clauderry#rayllum#trees to meet you#s5#parallels#5x02#5x04#tag ramble#i also think it's like. terry killing ibis was awful for him#but it's not something that actually eats claudia up inside? like she would've done it without flinching#she feels bad that terry feels bad#whereas callum's lack of an off switch is like.#whether soren would've wanted claudia to heal him with dark magic has some wiggle room#on the one hand he seemed to be processing well and didn't ask for it#on the other hand he's thrilled when he can move again#callum saving rayla with dark magic in 2x07 or esp 5x08 doesn't have that wiggle room#bc she wouldn't want that. she would 100% rather die to spare him having to do it#and he knows that. and does it anyway#just like in 5x04 all over again#bc he's insane and i love him

I cleaned the hobby room and I'm very happy, but I cannot share a pic bc it's still so messy by my inner Pinterest standards.
#Also this is the diaper drying room#Koni is an idiot#Problem is that visual clutter annoys me AND I'm an out of sight out of mind person so worst combo#We had a spare kallax after the office got redecorated and brought it up#But the weaving things stuck out which annoyed me even if it was great for yarn#The old pax that used to do all the storage was still looming#We had planned to move that one into the attic but it just won't fit#So I started to move my stuff from the kallax back to the pax with the idea to yeet the kallax and maybe replace it with a smaller one#Bc the wife did like it for their stuff#But it turned out I really dislike getting yarn from the pax bc it involves opening a door#While I do like it hiding away the weaving things I don't use most of the time#So I moved the pax to another wall (it turned out to be screwed to the book case which I didn't know so that was fun)#And now all the clutter stuff can live in there!

July recap! 🏖
#my health has crashed and burned once more but july started off as a strong month that ended wonderfully!!! 🥳🥂🔥💥#like. i got to *finally* enjoy a birthday cafe event after being so jealous of kr and jp fans (since they regularly make one each year)#and someone in indo finally made one! for *the* kitashin too! 🥺🥺🥺🫶🫶🫶 i'm grateful to be warga h*** b*** for once because of this!!!#also my cat SLEPT IN MY ARMS during our morning sit... i fear i've peaked in life you guys. nothing can beat this type of joy 😭😭😭#i also got good quality bed sheets for the first time in ~15 years with a hefty discount... turns out just changing to a brand new sheet#each week gives me extra serotonin boost 🥳💖 entering my room and laying on the bed is a whole new experience and i'm LOVING it!!!!!#and the discounts ended up being pretty big too... i won in life. my bed sheets are all floral and it brightens up my day just looking at it#and look back. oooooh (collapses). i'm still weeping about it so i will talk about that in another post haha :')#also can you guys believe that what it took for me to finish watching an sv playthrough was me being sick JSHSKDJD 😭🤚#turns out not being able to do much means all the attention i can spare is for whatever's that playing in front of me. so i now understand#the sv plot and how it still has spectacular writing + music despite the game's performance... so now you know that i'll be pulling arven 😭#personal
