HI OOMFIE.. PENIS HEAD EVEN.. I gyatt a few questions about the muse au cause i have vrainrot

where does Petey live in this? Is t like a studio apartment or a garage?? Where the fuck he at bro!!

Does Dogman ever get revealed to the media/public that he’s half human? Like does someone lowkey ever put him on blast

how do they commmunicate!! Normal sign or does Dogman use Paper :0

does Dogman have any hobbies of his own?? How’s him and LPs relationship in this

Can we frolick in FEILDS together

ANON I WOUD LAY MY LIFE DOWN FRO U OHHHHHH MY GOD i alr love getting asked abt my aus but THIS MANY QUESTIONS IN ONE ASK......? OH IM SICK IN THE HEAD

-- i have no idea where he lives specifically like i dont have a concrete idea of it but all ik is that his art studio and his home are the same place . and the place he lives is more art studio purpose than home purpose . theres probs js a blanket in the corner for him to sleep . 😭😭😭 and like pipes running along the walls . industrial sink that he uses for cleaning his brushes and washing his clothes and dishes and making his coffee .

i think its like a dirt cheap studio apartment in kind of a bad neighborhood. smth smth redlining . like the floors are made of concrete and shit 😭😭😭😭😭😭 no ac no heating . concrete box with his art supplies and some bare necessities . he doesnt rlly take care of himself either so there arent many bare necessities either 💀💀💀💀

-- and im not sure if dms identity ever gets revealed . it makes the most sense plot wise but idk How i would fix it . the only way i can see it being fixed is dm having to flee the country 😭😭😭😭 bc the government would kill him . and if they dont kill him he would At Least get put on like an fbi watchlist if he isnt on one already 💀💀💀💀💀 . hes already an activist like that would just be the final nail in the coffin im ngl . if youve heard of the black panther party (hopefully u have) the us govt during the late 1900s would Literally just Kill members of the bpp . like . its not out of their character . and since muse au takes place during this era the government Definitely has the audacity to just kill him .

i think also dms surgery was probably government backed . since he got blown up on the war front it makes sense that the subsequent surgery was . the governemnts doing . and the govt does Not want people knowing about it . so if his identity ever gets revealed it would be too risky on the govts end to keep him alive so they would lit do anythign to try and kill him 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀

Ultimately . im not sure . id have to think on it more . tbf the ending to muse au in general isnt developed fully yet LOL i dont have the faintest idea what happens .

-- communication is initially paper and pencil but eventually petey starts learning asl . lil petey learns before him i reckon which. makes sense LOL

-- as for hobbies.... Heh... ive been thinking of having dm be a bit of a writer . my hc of dm liking poetry applies to most if not all of my aus . i had an idea in my head of dm writing a poem abt petey and he gets kinda emotional abt it . smth smth artist gets art made about them for the first time in their life .

-- he and lp have a relationship pretty similar to canon methinks they jsut get up to shenanigans and they fw each other heavy . dm really likes his art and likes to listen to his stories and he likes to give him little snacks to eat . lp likes to draw dm and dm likes to pose for him LOLLLL hes his number one fan !

-- YES!!!!!!! LETS FUCKING FORLICK DAWG!!!!!!!!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[the-sinful-voice-witch]

Ok so I decided to write some... parody representation of how I felt after years of not paying attention to DC comics:

Me: Ah is so good be back into the comics after a long time! 😊 I hope you didn't make any more dumb decision like the last time I checked... 🤨

DC: yeah welcome back! I think you're going to love the things we've been doing 😇

Me: oh let's see, let's see... What? Tim and Stephanie broke up? Why?😥

DC: eeeehhh... No particular reason 🙂

Me: no reason? There was no reason? Who breaks up for no reason? It's says in a panel he doesn't even know why he did it? 🤨I'm not about to see another disgusting cheating situation like when you destroyed the beautiful Dickory romance when Dick cheated on Kory with Barbara and then gave her an invitation to their wedding that never happened right?😭😠

DC: no, nothing like that and don't judge me, we needed a way to break dickory so dickbabs could happen 🤷

Me: why did you need them to happen anyway? Babs has always been too old for Dick...😬

DC: i know but we aged her down so now is ok 👍😁😇

Me: yeah of course you did...🙄 * Quick check* Was it necessary to make Dick be with so many girls before getting back to Barbara? I'm seeing he was with Kory, then Babs, then a girl with blue hair, then... Huntress?🤦‍♀️ Then he Loses his memory and has a romance with a black girl he dumps after recovering his memories... Ok enough with this manwhore, why the other younger manwhore Broke up with Stephanie?😑

DC: aaaaah it's complicated. 🙃

Me: "complicated", sure...😑 * Keeps looking* oh! He came out as bisexual? 😲Oh I see! So you guys decided to pair him with Kon? Well is a bit sad for Steph but being Kon and the story he has with Tim I suppose is undertandabl...🥺🤔

DC: oh sorry! Is not Kon.🙂

Me: i beg you pardon? 🙃

DC: i said Is not Kon. 🙂

Me: * checks out the guy* oh is true... Kon is not blonde... A blonde dude.... 🤨🤔Oh! Is Cullen Row? Blue bird's brother... Ummmm, Ah! now I get it, yeah I remember how he stated he was gay and very into Tim in his introduction... Well is not Kon but giving the context it could make sense... 🤔 he even got along with Steph... Wait no! Cullen wasn't blonde...

DC: is not Cullen.🙂

Me: Then who is this blonde dude?!🙄😤

DC: im glad you're asking, you're going to love it he is... Bernard!😁

Me:..................???😐

DC: Bernard! 😃

Me: WHO THE FUCK IS BERNARD?🤬

DC: oh come on of course you know who he is, he was Tim's classmate 😌

Me: * Angry checking* uhu... Ummm I see.....................😠This guy is a fucking background character that appeared for the first time in 2004 a few times and then disappeared for years😑

DC: yes but he was our only option... 🙂🤷

Me: no, he wasn't.😑💢

DC: But we couldn't pair him with Superboy it was too risky and only a few people remembers Cullen.🤷

Me: even less people, close to ALMOST NOBODY remembered Bernard 😡😡😡, at least Cullen explicitly stated his gayness for Tim the moment he was introduced and also he is Bluebird's brother, Bernard was just a normal classmate.😑😤

DC: coooome on don't be like that! Just read how they got together, you'll change your mind 😇

Me: why do I doubt that so much?🫩 *checks * wait, Bernard came back after so many years and go together with Tim in ONE especial??😦

DC: not any kind of Special! A LGBTQIA+ pride especial! Ahhh see? we are so inclusive and progressive 😎😎😎 so you can't be angry...

Me: and so unbelievably TACKY and LAZY as FUCK too 🙄🤦‍♀️

DC: but they had a lot of chemistry, people wanted bi representation with a Robin so Tim and Bernard were the best option!🥺

Me: eh no, they aren't 🙎‍♀️. Good representation is always nice but people simply wanted him and Kon to be bisexuals so TimKon would be canon but you just picked up the most cardboard irrelevant background character you could 🙄 and forced them to be together in the most rushed tacky way possible!🫩 You don't just do that in one special issue! You were supposed to reintroduce Bernard in a believable way, make Tim see him again after so many years and start talking, make them have some romantic tension that makes Tim be confused and then let them have a date and you have to visually show us ALL that in more than one issue not just put a text saying: "we reconnected out of no reason and now we have a date" 🤦‍♀️and just show us that date without seeing the process before that. A pride special issue is to create special stories for already established LGBT couples that people know beforehand not to start a new one, because then it feels rushed and out of nowhere!😤😮‍💨

DC: wow how toxic and homophobic you're being...😒

Me: im not sorry to inform you 💢💢 that the "you are just something -ist or something -phobic" card is not working anymore as a shield to cover your ass🤡 from getting criticized for shitty writing bitch 😤😠. Also what the hell did you do with poor Stephanie??🤦‍♀️ What kind of person who has been dumped without a reason and then ghosted for months without explanation and then gets introduced to her new boyfriend of the ex (that dumped and ghosted her) without asking her or warning her says: "I finally meet you!this is the best day ever!"???? 🫠🫠🫠 Check this shit twice before saying something so cringe and degrading is cute and wholesome 🤮🤮🤮. Who wrote that? A 13 years old Wattpad writter fujoshi? 🤡🤡🤡

DC: in my defense we couldn't risk making Stephanie look homophobic 🙂🤷

Me: being angry or sad that your ex boyfriend that dumped you and ghosted you has a new boyfriend that he introduces you without warning is not homophobic🤡, is a basic normal human reaction after been treated like shit, damnit!🙄😤

DC: yeaaaah but it was a pride issue so it had to have a happy ending, we couldn't have a heartbroken Stephanie...😇😇😇

Me: so you just gaslight readers trying to convince us that cringe "happy" reaction is normal and totally on character.💢🤨

DC: come on, don't be mad we still have a bisexual superboy too!😅😀

Me: i don't see what's the point of confirming Kon's bisexuality if you weren't going to pair him with Tim...🫩

DC: oh no no we don't mean THAT Superboy😬

Me: what do you mean not THAT 🤨 Superboy the only other superboy is a just little kid...

DC: ehhh about that...🙂

Me: no... No you didn't... * Checks * oh you fucking did it YOU BASTARDS!🤬🤬🤬

DC: why are you angry? we gave the fans a half gay superboy like they wanted!🤗

Me: YOU GOT THE WRONG SUPERBOY ASSHOLES!🤬🤬🤬 JON WAS SUPPOSED TO BE THE CUTE BABY SUPERBOY AND YOU FORCED HIM TO GROW UP UNNATURALLY AND ROBBED HIS CHILDHOOD! No to mention that it looks like you basically casted Kon aside to favor one superboy over other 🙎‍♀️💢

DC: calm down calm down!!! Look! Is not that bad... He even has his own boyfriend and this one has superpowers!😃😃

Me: * furiously checks* .....I see, a half Asian guy with a hell ugly pink haircut and very unflattering glasses that casually wants to be a journalist and is "superfan" of Lois lane... So superboy is with a journalist like his dad, so he is just a copy-paste of his dad... 🫩🫩🫩

DC: yeah but more progressive!😃

Me: and he never has to worry that much about his love because this ugly hair dude Jay has the power of intangibility so nothing can touch him.🫩🫩🫩

DC: isn't he super great??😃😃

Me: you know? Bisexual representation isn't that hard to make, you just need to take the character and make it blush or flirt with women and men. You don't need to break up his current relationship with a girl and made writing gymnastics 🤡🤡🤡 to put him with a random boy to prove his bisexuality (unless you pair him with the actual boy people wanted).Seriously, blush around both sexes! People get it! People isn't dumb! 🙄🙄🙄

DC: well what's donde is done 🤷

Me: Ok,this is giving me a headache... Let's see what else you screwed...

DC: you're are being dramatic we are not that bad 😒😒

Me: we'll see about that... Oh Helena?? Helena Wayne??😍 In the main canon?? But not from other universe but from the main universe future????? She is main canon now?? Omg omg omg!! 🤩🤩🤩🥳🥳

DC: see? I'm glad you're happy😁

Me: yaaaiiiii...😆 * Keeps reading*😶😐 eh... That's not the reunion with Batman I expected...☹️ I mean he has been cold before but that was with a Helena from another universe, this one is actually her daughter... He casted her away???😠😠😠😠

DC: yeah you know Batman, he is complicated and her existence could mess with the future 🙂

Me: but her future has been erased,😠 she erased her future and became a living paradox to save Batman's, her FATHER'S life!!😫 Why is he such a jerk??😤 This is his biological daughter with the love of his life!! Grumpy as he is this is too much!😤😤

DC: nah still in character 🙂

Me: aaaaaaaarrrrjjjjj well I'll just wait to see how is her reunion with her mom and her siblings...😑

DC: oh yeah about that... 🙃

Me: what now?🫩

DC: sorry that's not going to happen😅🤷

Me:....Why exactly is not going to happen?💢💢😬

DC: well, bringing her to the main canon was more of a mess than we thought so... We send her to a more advanced future... Yeah now she can't actually meet the whole bat family, that would be too messy... Sawwwrry 😘😘

Me: you are so the fucking worst! So you made her exist in the main canon but she can't stay with her family???🤯 You made her exist just to make Batman be a fucking cold asshole with her after she saved his life and showed him how much she loves him and then throw her away in another future so Batman can pretend she never happened???🤬🤬🤬 Do you understand Helena Wayne was created before Damian Wayne right?😤😤 I don't care if in the main canon she would actually be a little sister but this disrespect to the first remarkable biological child Batman had is outrageous! How did Alfred allowed this!?😠😠

DC: oh uhhh well...😬😅

Me: wait, now that I mentioned him, where is Alfred? I didn't see him in the recent comics...🤨

DC: je je well, you see... It looks like you skipped an important arc to understand what's happening...🙂 You would have noticed if you didn't stop looking at Dicks story...

Me: hey, you are scaring me... Why is not Alfred on the recent comics... What happened in that arc?😰😰

DC:........😶‍🌫️😶‍🌫️😶‍🌫️

Me: * checks very afraid* eh? Oh, no... Nononono NO wait... This isn't happening...🥲🥲🥲 You didn't right? This is a joke...🫠🫠🫠

DC: yeah well, no it isn't sawwrry 🥺🤷

Me: you just didn't fucking killed Alfred, he is coming back right? HE IS COMING BACK! Omg... Dick didn't have his memories back when he died...😰 Bane snapped his neck in front of Damian...😨 This is beyond cruel😭😭, you have to resuscitate him! YOU HAVE TO!😭🤬🤬

DC:.....🙃

Me: you listen to me I don't care if you use a magic wishing lamp or if Deadpool himself walks backwards on the comic pages and cuts Bane's head snd hands to save Alfred but you're going to REVIVE ALFRED!👹👹👹���🔥🔥

DC:ummmm......NOPE 🙂‍↔️🤪 * smoke bomb*

Me: YOU FUCKING BASTARDS!🤬🤬🤬 THAT'S IT, MAIN CANON HAS OFFICIALLY BECAME IRRELEVANT, YOU HEAR ME?💢💢💢ALFRED WAS UNTOUCHABLE AND YOU CROSSED THE LINE! MAIN CANON IS OFFICIALLY BULLSHIT,🔥🔥 NOTHING HAPPENING AFTER HIS DEATH COUNTS FOR ANYTHING... YOU SON OF A BITCH GET BACK HERE AND FIX THIS DISASTER!👹👹👹🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪

you know when you get those adverts for like protein shake meal replacement bullshit products and people say shit like ‘im just so busy with work i never have the time for breakfast or lunch or dinner or snacks, so this horrible brown powder milkshake is a huge life TIMEsaver!’ and ‘its so convenient! i just swallow a glass of tasteless powder to meet my basic vitamin needs and then i have all the time my employer wants from me!’ and then you have to keep watching the unskippable ad only for the person not to become immediately radicalised by what they were just forced to say. I genuinely cannot fathom how people write these scripts, say them out loud, film these videos, edit them and publish them and nobody involved in that process is going insane. are you even listening? are you reading those words? cant you see the exploitation of workers is forcing you to stop performing even the most necessary of tasks like eating real food? and cant you see we have been so convinced that is normal that there are entire businesses and ad campaigns based on it?

food, actual real good normal food, is a human right, but also part of your culture, your family, your community. Its a source of joy, health, fun, love and creativity. please dont let these fucked up companies convince you its just time that could be better spent slaving away for the rich monsters that hold your contract.

[wackywatchdotcom]

something i genuinely adore about tadc is how painfully flawed everyone in the circus is. and not in a small way

everyone does SOMETHING that negatively impacts the others. but it makes the fact that you are supposed to sympathize with and really connect with them all the more potent. because its easy to want to put a bunch of characters in a bad situation together and to just have them all be nice to each other and everyone and never make mistakes because theres no reason to hurt each other, and most of them dont TRY to, but the way they cope is so, so realistic for each of their personalities, and it doesnt always mesh with the others, and sometimes it exceeds self destructive and Just Hurts Others, Too

they still generally care about each other and the mistakes they make and the ways they end up hurting each other dont lose their weight but like. it doesnt take away from their humanity and the fact that they are all trying so hard to manage in an awful situation

and the characters seem to have sooome sort of understanding of this too. not fully, because the characters dont tend to be 100% communicative, but when they hurt each other, it often makes EVERYONE uncomfortable. because these are the only people they have. these are their friends. and theyre all coping. but it doesnt change how much it affects them (best illustrated by ragathas lines at the start of ep 2 or gangles 'i love her, but after a while it gets kinda hard to tell how genuine shes actually being'). its not all like this, theres a good amnt of variety, but characters knowing this but not really knowing what to do about it is very painful in an effective way

(i think a subtle example of this is how zooble handles gangles situation in ep 4- they were so genuinely trying to help her because they care. but could tell as the day went on that oh, this is not working at all and its making things worse, and they leave gangle alone- something that very genuinely couldve been the moment she abstracted, because of the mask zooble gave her- and we dont get to have a super blatant explanation of zoobles thoughts on it, but they reach a fairly healthy conclusion about it that helps both of them, and i like that a lot, because on paper zooble could be placed at fault but the narrative doesnt dwell on it excessively, because thats not the point. i dont know if that tangent makes sense but i think about it sometimes. i think zooble wasnt 'to blame' but it was still a mistake, which is a hard balance to strike, and having them help at the end feels extremely effective at rounding it off!!!)

but like. in general its complicated balancing making characters in a bad situation act flawed because it can run the risk of seeming like the story is scolding them or blaming them for the situation theyre in, or like youre expected to not sympathize with them despite it (though the inverse also has complications- if characters in a bad situation never mess up, it feels unrealistic and hard to relate to, and can imply that their innocence is why whats happening to them is bad at all), but the show handles it so well

even the characters who are genuinely trying all try in different ways- some of them have similar outlooks or attitudes towards these thing but theres vital differences for ALL of them- sometimes it works and sometimes it doesnt. in fact some of the more painful mistakes characters have made in the show have come from them so genuinely trying (like the thing i mentioned w zooble, or basically Everything Ragatha Does, or pomnis first attempt at helping gangle, etc), which hits harder than if every mistake characters made had wholly selfish and cruel goals.

i mean, there is a selfishness to many of the characters' actions but imo not in a way thats not warranted. because all of them are in a horrible setting. its uncomfortable to watch characters be selfish. but it is a natural instinct to survive. its not the foundation of most of their actions, but when it is, its uncomfortable but hard to completely disparage them for in a way that makes you feel kinda conflicted

and like. it hurts to be doing your best and for that to make things worse, but its what happens often in the show. because no one in a bad situation is gonna handle it well. by the very nature of trying to survive something is gonna give, but it makes the themes of the show so much more powerful. that making sure the people around you dont feel unloved, cherishing them and finding meaning with others is no less important just because everyone is fucking up. it complicates things, for sure, but it doesnt make those characters exempt fromt this. theres a reason pomni tells gummigoo that she doesnt want "anyone" to feel like theyre nothing, and that kinger doesnt add ANY quallifiers to making sure people feel wanted and loved (not that i think either of them were thinking SUPER super hard, but it conveys smth from the perspective of the narrative

it gets complicated when you add in jax for sure, since i think on the surface he IS the exception to this concept- none of the characters like him, including pomni or kinger. but i think this is something thats gonna be examined further down the line, bc hes the main complicating factor in this reading of the show, but i feel like thats on purpose. hes universally disliked (and so is caine, in a different way) and his actions arent mistakes. they are him coping. the show has made it clear that he can be a complex person AND also a piece of shit. his actions dont detract from the fact that hes a person and the show reminds us of this. so it makes things so messy, but im genuinely super excited to see how the show examines that. where his character goes is, imo, going to be a massive piece of how this show fleshes out this concept

[galacticlamps]

I don't want to get too caught up on semantics but I have to say I really feel like it's an unfair reading of the situation to call what Charles does in the Staircase Scene a "rejection."

I've already talked about how I think that scene's strength lies in the act of telling itself and Edwin's confession as the conclusion of his self-discovery arc. And I understand how the fact that that arc involved things like sexuality & attraction left it open to being viewed under a sort of romance-plot-specific lens, but evaluating the whole thing on that criteria still feels like a misrepresentation.

I don't think Edwin is saying "Love me" in that scene. Maybe he would've been asking for that, if this had all happened under different circumstances - and sure, generally, he'd presumably like that to happen - but it'd still be a kind of insane request for him to make right as he's being literally rescued from hell. (Especially since, even though the audience & Charles can both see the rescue as so in-character we might take it for granted, Edwin clearly didn't, if his consistently surprised confused & appalled reactions to Charles being there are anything to go by). I think he's feeling very loved already at that point, and I have a hard time believing desperation to simply have that reiterated is what drove him to speak up at such an inopportune moment.

I think what he's really saying there is "Hear me" - and as a listener and a confidant, Charles does anything but reject him. Maybe it's splitting hairs a bit, but if the distinction between "please don't turn me down" and "please understand the person in front of you" matters anywhere, it's in relation to Charles' response because he is so accepting of the confession as a confession. Not only does he take what Edwin tells him well, despite it being the sort of thing that might rock the foundation of the most important relationship in his existence, he also accepts the fact that Edwin is in such a vulnerable and worked up state that he has to do it right now despite it endangering them both. Charles would, truthfully, be totally justified in mostly ignoring it or passing over it quickly and inconclusively, insisting that this wasn't the time or place - but instead everything he says and does in that scene is geared toward giving Edwin's announcement the attention & understanding he needs so badly - and that includes responding with honesty about his own feelings, even if they might not otherwise be exactly what you'd want to hear after declaring your love for someone. Charles takes his time (perhaps foolishly, but certainly necessarily) and gives Edwin a response that is warm and familiar, while also being kind, affectionate, open, serious, and above all correspondingly worthy of the weight of the thing Edwin has just entrusted him with. That seems an awful lot to pass over simply because he doesn't also happen to be in love with him too.

Edwin's confession is so not a come-on that whether or not Charles reciprocates the romantic element is, at best, secondary to his overall reaction, and using that piece of it to call the whole thing a rejection feels like a very inaccurate shorthand to get in the habit of using as a summary of his role in the scene.

What do you think Odile does for a living? She feels teacher like to me. What do you think she would do post canon?

HMMMM THIS IS GOOD QUESTION…

ive seen a lot of people hc her as a teacher / professor so i!! think that suits her pretty well. specifically as someone who studies + specializes in different types of craft (that would be why shes so proficient in multiple craft spells. also how she was able to figure out the loops stuff, AND to find something that could prevent siffrin from looping back).

post canon i am not sure… i am always torn between how the party would handle things post canon. obviously they would keep travelling for a bit, odile alongside her family without the stress of. constant sadness encounters + a king to kill lol. i think maybe she would get to take her time, reeaally get to know vauguardian culture when not within. a crisis. as was her original intention.

eventually. EVENTUALLY. when the family settles down somewhere (i am a “they all get a big house together” believer lol) she would get back into craft stuff. maybe go back into teaching too—surely people would be eager to hire a saviour. especially though i think it would be neat of her to try looking into wish craft etc, as a long forgotten form of craft. to satisfy her own curiosity, for siffrins sake, or just as a way of preserving the countries culture in whatever ways possible.

I just can't believe the FSM being a bad person, or parent, like so many seem to think.

Mystaké spoke highly of him, and the only reason Firstbourne let him ride her was because she sensed the goodness in his heart.

And in the scenes we've seen of him, he's been patient and caring with his sons. I'm still shook that he didn't get angry at them fighting on the boat. He just chuckled and gave them advice.

And apparently they had campfires, and Wu and Garmadon did okay on their journey as teens, so they probably went camping too??

I will fight for trying-his-best-good-dad FSM.

Bro had no parents, people coming after him since he was a kid... he probably had no idea what a regular childhood was like. But I strongly do believe that he tried his best with Wu and Garmadon.

Free as a man with his hands handcuffed to the bar.”
