but we're more like brothers (even if it kills you)

Jane Espenson writing the majority of Spike episodes where he shows positive character growth, the fact that Spike is the antithsis of Angel and that Joss Wheadon hated his popularity can not be by coincidence.

I know I'm connecting a lot of dots with this one (that have probably been connected before), but she quiet literally wrote the episode where he is reintroduced in season 4 with "Harsh Light of Day", where he becomes part of the Scoobies with "Pangs", "Doomed" and "A New Man".

Then later on in Season 5 saved his character with the masterful "Intervention" where in the same episode she writes Spike creating the sexbot he also shows his worth by being tortured (where we see him being penetrated) and not breaking.

In the season 6 episode she wrote "After Life" where we see Spike's trauma of Buffy dying and how he is literally the only Scoobie to be able to look after her after being resurrected, as he himself has gone through the trauma of dying then digging out of his own grave. Also in this episode we see that he has now taken the mantel of Dawn's supernatural protector, out of surviors guilt from the events of the season 5 finale, and then later on how those events have haunted him every night. Jane then wrote Spike to be the only person in Doublemeat Palace to offer Buffy a way out of working there.

Season 7 Jane co-wrote the highly acclaimed "Conversations with Dead People" then "Sleeper" and "First Date" where we see Spike's fall to The First and where he killed people, but also where we see how he has risen in Buffy's eye's to being trustworthy in "First Date".

With all this being said you can probably understand now why I'd say a lot of Spike nuance is credited to Jane Espenson. To quote James in the SDCC 2012 Buffy panel "Joss would come up to me about 3 episodes in to every season and say he has no idea what to do with me", so this meant the other writers (mostly Jane) to take over with writing Spike. So you can see why it's not too far fethced to say she is the reason behind his popularity as she set a lot of the ground work after s2, outside of James's himself giving a masterful preformance. Later on in the SDCC 2012 Buffy Panel she says "we knew we had this amazingly verstial character largely because we had this amazingly verstial actor, we knew whatever we put infront of James he could do..." this shows that she felt comfortable making Spike into whatever she wanted.

For my last point, there's a lot of examples here that the fandom loves to highlight Spike's being Angel's opposite, like how Spike's treament of a Minor having a crush on him compared to the soul having Angel's. Spike's complete polar opposite on how he see's love as something postive to protect, where as Angelus's use of love as a tool to torture someone with. William loved and respected women where as Liam only used the ones around him.

This all leads me to the conclusion that Spike was more popular than Angel mostly because of Jane's input and groundwork on the character after season 2, and we all know how Joss felt about Spike's popularity and there's no way Jane didn't make all his postive traits the opposite of Angel by coincidence.

Thank you Jane for creating what I believe to be one of the best characters in media history and for being the original Spike girlie.

Danny Fenton does not drink coffee. Danny Fenton drink an energy drink that is 50% ectoplasm and 50% whatever they put in energy drinks. Its vibrant green and tastes strongly of battery acid and he thinks its the nectar of the gods.

Trust me this information was sent to me in visions

Argo had been up past 1AM.

Maybe, drinking a soda and eating candy wasn't a great idea at 10PM. And yeah, maybe continuing to look at his phone until 1AM wasn't the smartest idea either. But, what's done is done and now he's crying in the Hermes cabin, again.

He's disguised as Connor Stoll to... hopefully get people to not notice him? But everyone pretty much put it together when they noticed two Connors that morning.

im so mad that illagers aren't the villains

just watched the new minecraft trailer, had some thoughts.

I don't like that piglins, (the species that is culturally different but if you follow their rules you can have a positive relationship with them) are the enemies instead of illagers (hunting parties that shoot on sight, terrifying powers and weapons, curse you so that villages are attacked when you get there).

they really missed an opportunity to show that different cultures can happily coexist, even when they have good and bad (pillagers vs villagers, piglins vs zombie piglins). they instead make the piglins CRUEL. like, killing a piglin child in the damn trailer cruel. the parallels would have been simple enough for kids to get, so it was a reasonable route that they just didn't take.

also PIGLINS CAN'T BE ON THE OVERWORLD!!! Illagers can!!! why did they do this?? ill admit the flying ghast air balloons are cool, but just have the illagers start harming the nether like they harm the overworld! Give the piglins and villagers a reason to team up! Movie wise, there can be cool shots of battles happening in the nether and overworld with the camera going through nether portals as the battle rages on. probably to some pop song.

and sticking with the movie shots, ILLAGERS HAD SOME FREEBIES!! they also have a lot more variety in their "species"

-"here's johnny!" reference with the vindicator -a death scene of one of the characters, before a totem of undying is found/revealed -the evoker would be a terrifying villain because of it's summoning skills -add the illusioner in!! it's an unused mob that can summon blindness AND duplicates. both of these can create a good fight scene -Allays and vexes!! my sibling said a romance between 2 of them would be cute, i agree! there is also potential for a character to see a vex, say "how cute!" and comedically get attacked -ravagers are a BEAST and would make any fight cool. could have a hoglin vs ravager fight in the nether, again looking at the good vs bad -a character gets bad omen and leads to the village being attacked! the battle happens, then we get to see the Hero of the Village affect happen after the victory

there was so much potential! i'm sure i'm missing more, but whatever. im mad about it, and ill probably have to die mad

Kinda wish that dlc where you play as sksw Zelda actually got made. Imagine it had the memory recovery system of Breath of the Wild. That would be so freaking sick, but Nintendo doesn't have the balls. The implications of what happened during the war between Hylia and Demise is honestly horrific. In the opening cutscene with the cave paintings, it showed a LOT of people just being straight up BURNED. Hylia definitely saw a lot of that. So... in theory, Zelda was ALSO subjected to that, AGAIN. SKSW ZELDA HAS WAR PTSD. IM TELLING Y'ALL. And to relive all of that at the ripe ol age of seventeenish... is not good for the psyche. Nobody talks about her trauma enough, and it makes me big sad. ALSO. If I'm remembering correctly, Zelda's way of speaking sorta changed? Like... uhhmmmdjdj...

You can't convince me something didn't fundamentally change in her brain. Is this a stretch??? WHY IS SHE TALKING LIKE THATT??? gosh, the agnst potential here is CRAZY. Like. Be Link. Save the world or whatever, and now your girlfriend is suddenly spitting out philosophy and talking like a poet out of nowhere. That'd be kinda disorienting. Even more disorienting is having the memories of a past life along with your own. Like, uh... what if she asked Link about something she thinks happened, and he's just like... "Huh?" And she'd just be like, "Oh, that happened when I was Hylia, nvm."

ALSO IMPA!??!?!? like she DEFINITELY had a close relationship with her as Hylia maybe, I headcanon she saw Impa as a daughter, and then the roles got swapped when she became Zelda. Or... oh God PLEASE DONT MAKE THIS A PEARL AND ROSE QUARTS SITUATION PLEAAAHAHEEESEEEE 🙏🙏

Anyways. During that journey, she definitely grew attached to Impa, especially because she already knew her in a past life, which is kind of a special connection my dudes. And then BOOM she disappears. Bye bye warrior woman you will be missed dearly.

Cough. Okay to sum this up:

Live life normally as just a girl in school. Yippie, everything is awesome. Everything is cool when you're part of a team. Oh, sick, your crush won the race thing despite not studying a day in his life, and you've built up the courage to FINALLY ask him out-

Uh oh! TORNADO! and now you're in an entirely different land basically surrounded by monsters, defenseless, apparently despite the fact you've been attending a knight school for twelve or so years, you freaking nepo baby (affectionate). Grandma lady saves you. Then uh cool mysterious lady starts guiding you, and apparently you've known her in a past life-

War flashbacks. Some ash baby lookin ahh dude slaughtered a bunch of people bc he wanted some golden doritos, also, you used to be a goddess, the same one you worshipped and prayed to all the time. What the flip. What's Link gonna think about this? WHAT? YOUVE BEEN BASICALLY USING HIM? WHAT? PARDON? NO?! WHAT THE FLIPPITY JIPPITY. You tell him after he does some stuff belehsiebr then get sealed away and have to see him claw at you at bawl his eyes out. Not traumatizing at all. Then when you finally get reunited, a RuPaul's Drag Race reject pops in and kidnaps you and steals your soul to revive Temper Tatrum Ash Baby. Link beats both of them up. Also that dude who bullied him and had a crush on you is cool now. How sick! But OH SHART. IMPA ISNT COMING WITH YOU BACK TO THE PRESENT? oh haha she was just the old lady this whole time she's right there-

And she exploded.

Just great!

Not traumatizing at all.

idk, I just feel like she's such an interesting character who gets kinda mischaracterized all the time without taking into account that she suffered too. STOP VILLAINIZING MY BABY, PLEASE FOR THE LOVE SHE'S NOT EVIL.

Tim is a dragon. P2

See above for p1

Tim, as a proud representative of the dragon race, does on the regular.

Normal caffiene doesn’t work on him. He has to keep pouring in energy drinks after energy drinks after coffee after tea after magic caffiene to wake himself up. As you can probably guess, this would freak out the family if they knew.

Cold cases are fun! Coupled with morbid fascination of murder itself, and the fun quest of finding the whodunnit, Tim’s stack of solved cold cases are nearly triple that of Bruce. Dragon brain power had a lot to do with it. (Bruce is jealous and Tim finds that a funny bonus. Arrogance would be the death of him but who says he cant have fun?)

Toying with businessmen and women alike. Backhanded compliments and playing the victim are his favourite past-time during galas. Building connections gets boring after a while

Morals mean nothing to him. Following batman around, tim learned humans put a lot of weight on killings and such. It helped with bringing batman back to himself but tim never really saw any point in saving villains and the like. (‘C’mon Dick! Let em die! It’s karma! It’s not murder if we didn’t do anything to save them!’ Tim thought as he calmly and regally explained that that clone was basically him with his mindset)

In a family of detectives, Tim barely even tried to hide nature. Having the ability to turn invisible at any point in time with his magic, Tim plays a game with the Bats that only he knows they are playing. Which is; Find out what is wrong with Tim! Featuring! Tim himself!

Dragons are beautiful. It’s no wonder girls were so willing to change themselves to fit his type. While Tim does like that he is pulling, he could do without all the forced kisses, he’s not really the romantic type most of the time.

Superboy and Impulse never died. What do you mean they died? They didn’t.

Everyone else still died though.

Sometimes, dragons like to hibernate. Sometimes, Tim’s family and friends get worried because he has now reached hour 23 of uninterupted sleep. They think Tim has some kind of illness when he doesn’t wake up no matter how hard they try.

No one can hack through Tim’s firewalls. No one but Tim himself. And master hackers who has a Sorcerer or Sorceress Supreme on speed dial. (His dragon magic is a very good asset in his technology ventures)

His appearance as a dragon is very very VERY majestic. Sometimes, he likes to scare wizards and witches in the Wizard world with his sudden appearance. (Dragon appearances are rare, almost all records are only about Tim too)

He likes to tweet. Most of his tweets are just him making fun of the Waynes. (He is a hater at heart. He will always be.)

i fully believe daichi could just tank one of those massive monster energy cans and then immediately take a 3 hour nap. is it something undiagnosed, or just sincere chronic fatigue? who knows, but his body has forgotten what being caffiene free feels like
