Me, holding Nightwing by the ankle, dangling him off a tall building menacingly: How many.

Dick: it's not what you-

Me: How many traumatic brain injuries, Nightwing.

Dick: Not that many, honestly, I'm great at avoiding concussions because I'm very mobile and-

Me: oh is that so? Do you need help refreshing your memories, Rick Grayson?

Dick: Listen, I can explain-

Me: Oh yeah? You can explain how you can add a bird of paradise inspired fucking nightlight function in your suit, but can't be arsed to wear the bare minimum of protective headgear?

Dick:

Me: That's what I thought. *I haul him up gruffly, tear off his domino mask, and shove it against his chest forcefully. The expression on my face is so disdainful I might as well have spit on him, but you can't tell because I'm wearing a full head helmet.* I should kill you for this.

Best book ever written, nothing will ever be funnier than this, Jane Austen I love you more than anyone else in the world <3

as a hellenic polytheist (someone who worships the greek gods) i like making the pjo characters hellenic polytheists in mortal aus so uh. pjo helpol headcanons (also yeah sorry romans idk much about you in terms of worship/religion so we're sticking strictly to helpol here. aaaand we're only focusing on the 7 + will and nico bc otherwise this post will be a mile long and contain headcanons for all of chb)

percy, jason, annabeth, frank, will, hazel, and nico are all raised in hellenismos

leo and piper are converts

percy is a devotee of hestia, nemesis, amphitrite, and hermes

jason is a devotee of apollon, athena, and hera

annabeth is a devotee of athena and apollon

frank is a devotee of apollon, ares, and athena

hazel is a devotee of hekate, thanatos, and hades

nico is a devotee of hades, hermes, and apollon

will is a devotee of apollon, hygieia, and asclepius

leo is a devotee of hephestus, hestia, and artemis

piper is a devotee of aphrodite, artemis, athena, and ares

piper is terrible with the correct pronunciations of... everything, honestly (this is directed at how past me pronounced hekate)

nico and will have a joint altar to apollon

(for fellow jercy shippers) jason and percy celebrate theogamia together and get really sappy about it

annabeth makes and sells devotee bracelets and jewelry (she also makes them for all her friends)

percy and jason put anything vaguely spiritual in their house into their altar for the household gods (i... might be projecting here. just a little bit)

hazel has the most beautiful, elaborate altars known to man but she constantly forgets to clean them so they're lowkey hella dusty

frank spends a lot of time communicating with ares trying to figure out why ares reached out to him (at first he feels confused and unworthy, then he's like eh no matter why ares reached out to me he's cool asf and i like that)

leo is the king of forgetting to empty & remake his kadiskos, you better bet that bad boy sits on an altar for like three months before jason comes over and is like "ummm leo when was the last time you redid that"

meanwhile jason and percy are putting honeynut cheerios in their kadiskos and insisting they're the pinnacle of spirituality (this... might also be projecting respect my freaking cheerios man)

hazel crochets (with annabeth's help) dog and polecat stuffed animals to honor hekate

uhh yeah that's all for now happy noumenia to those who celebrate <3

Watching Severance does feel a bit like reading a fic with 15000 word chapters that are almost entirely world-building and setup and there are only 2/47 chapters published and those came out 3 years apart

[mercymaker]

yea yea, i'm an absolute believer in the fact that spawn astarion indulges in some kinky stuff and having the freedom to choose sends him on a bit of a sexual exploration journey

but also have you considered him having moments that are so soft, so gentle? when he's losing himself in the warmth and the endless kisses? when he can shut his mind off and just allow the physical sensations, the touch to guide him? there's not a single hint of worry, no anxiety trailing behind his thoughts. it just feels natural, it feels good. he can close his eyes, truly relax and allow all of that to engulf him. completely lose himself in his lover's body.

And I'm back on my nerdiness!

This fic is a crossover between Danny Phantom x The Martian. You do not have to have read or watched The Martian to understand this fic. Although, I've convinced a double-digit number of people to read The Martian since I started this fic and I think that speak volumes to how obsessed I am about this media.

Summary: When Astronaut Mark Watney went to Mars, he knew there was a chance he'd never come home. Now, though, he's determined to last long enough for NASA to save him because this whole dying for science thing is not as fun as it sounds.

Meanwhile, Danny Fenton is just trying to keep his identity a secret amidst a potential crisis with his powers. Seriously, what's up with that weird current under his skin? Why is he having so much trouble controlling it? And why does it feel so familiar...?

In a fit of determination (and possible stupidity), Danny goes to Mars to save Watney, only to add to both their crises when he arrives and can't get home. Will NASA save them? Will Danny have a home to return to if they do?

Chapter excerpt under the cut

xxxx

“I’m the potato of—what day is it?” Mark glanced at the computer. “May seventeenth! The spooky seventeenth potato ghost!”

“You’re delusional,” was Danny’s response. “And also still not over the fact that you missed May fourth.”

Mark lowered the potato. “Well, usually, I rely on supernerd Johannsen for vital dates like that. But since she’s gone, it was your job to pick up the slack! Haven't you seen Star Wars?”

“Of course I have!” Danny exclaimed, crossing his arms. It was almost offensive that Mark would think for a second that Danny hadn’t seen Star Wars. “But you forgot about May fourth too! Don’t try to pin this on me. I’m not your personal C3P-O.”

“No, you’re more of a Chewbacca.”

Okay, now his angsty mood had entirely turned into offense. “The hell is that supposed to mean?”

“Well, I’m Han Solo, obviously.”

“Why do you get to be Han Solo?”

It was as if Danny had just asked why rockets exist if Mark’s expression was anything to go by. His eyebrows shot to his hairline, and his mouth opened with a comical amount of confidence—or was it arrogance—as he gestured to himself and answered, “Well, duh.”

As if that were supposed to sum it up.

“That explains nothing!” Danny argued.

“It’s quite literally the only bit of explanation you need, Chewie.”

“I’m not Chewbacca.”

“And the sky isn’t orange.”

Okay, all the prying into Danny’s personal business? That was rough, Danny had to admit. But this? 

This was unforgivable.

what if your doppelgänger wasn’t evil it was just a person. what if your doppelgänger wasn’t trying to replace you it was just trying to learn to be a person and you were the best model it had. what if your doppelgänger looked at you with your eyes and said with your voice that it just wanted to be loved. what then.

man, imagine being depressed and having an awful fight with your long-time partner after which he unceremoniously leaves you. so, you spend years heartbroken, unable to cope with not only losing your love, but also what was your everyday life. first, you're still desperately hoping he will return, but as years fly by, you grow to accept that he never will. and that absolutely shatters you. the loneliness absolutely ravages your mind, yet you don't want anyone else to fill it. only him.

but that's simply an impossibility. so, instead of looking for company elsewhere, you decide to have someone of your own. someone who would not leave your side. and so you do, through absolute agony of childbirth that nearly kills you both, have a little baby.

and while your life doesn't return to its previous splendor, with a little bit of time and help, you at least find a semblance of stability in your child. but then something you thought could never happen does. something you spent years craving, praying for. somehow, the lover you considered to be forever lost to you returns. because he missed you and still loved you, just as you did.

except that... upon learning that you are now a mother with a toddler in her arms, his enthusiasm wanes. you realize that he doesn't want you anymore. and you feel those scars in your heart, those fragile lines that took so much love and care to close, split right open, leaving you bleeding once again.
