@/ficwip's word of the week is reflect! so enjoy this snippet for the deadpool!chan/x-men au:

Changbin is suited up and in all his powered up glory. The sun reflecting off his metallic biceps, making him shine brightly like a newly polished weight lifting trophy. Or a disco ball. Chan is sure he could do some real damage to someone's eyes if he turned a certain way. And right behind him is Jeongin, grinning as he waves at Chan like he's happy to see him, only for the words out of his mouth to be: "You're an asshole!" "I've been told," Chan replies, reloading his guns as he accepts that this team up is going to happen no matter what he has to say about it. "Also, hey, hi. What happened to polite greetings? Do they not teach you that at the X-Men Academy? I could've sworn Professor was a stickler for traditional ways and all that."

I should really post some of my headcanons about Flora Colossus. If Marvel isn’t going to elaborate on their comic lore in any way, let alone be consistent with it, than, well…

[robotnikholmescomicblog]

The main focus may be the Sonic vs. Eggman fight, but I’d be lying if I said the Freedom Fighters weren’t contributing much too! They go all out against armies of Badniks and E-100 bots, and Rotor’s busy taking on the Death Egg itself, though time will tell how long these guys can hold it out whilst Sonic’s busy with the final boss.

I love this particular page of Bunnie fricking Power Punching the chonky motherfucker from before and simply one-shotting it in one hit while the others hold it down.

Catch your wife Antoine!

Will/do you write for colossus? Ive been rewatching the Deadpool series and that juggernaut made him look so….

i’ve been thinking on this for a while, and at the current moment? probably not? check back with me later if this writing kick hasn’t gone away.

i just personally don’t know if i’d be able to take him seriously, considering the deadpool version of him is always made of metal. i just. my fingers would be twitching to make so many hard dick jokes i don’t know if i could manage it in any sort of realistic capacity atm. i’m so sorry bro, lmao

[sweetie-bunbutt]

I am really not sure if i can take the modern Wolfenstein games seriously.

I am currently playing the Old colussus after playing through the new order and old Blood and on one part it really shows all the terrible things the Nazis did during the war and how the world might look like if they actually were the ones to win the war.

buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut on the other hand, Giant mechs, Nazi Zombies and a movie audition with Adolf Hitler.

Like in the New order you literally get put into a concentration camp (with the mission to free someone from it) and see the suffering of the people in their, not to mention that places like Auschwitz and Buchenwald. You break into a cellar but get captured and tortured by a sadistic nazi doctor and then thrown into a fucking fournace from which BJ climbs out from and sneaks himself throught the Lab.

AND THEN A FEW MINUTES LATER YOU TAKE CONTROL OF A HUGE ROBOT AND DESTROY THE ENTIRE FUCKING CAMP AND KILLING NAZIS LEFT AND RIGHT WITH GRENADE LAUNCHERS AND MINIGUNS!

or another example would be in the New collossus.

A touching scene of BJ going to the House he lived in when he was a Child, memories of his terrible Father flushing his head as he enters to find a Ring his mother told him about. In the House he also finds his Father who tells him about how the Nazi "rounded up all the Jews and the coloreds and the queers" and how "this is a whites man's world now" followed by him holding a Gun at BJs face. BJ shoves the Gun away killing his Father with an Axe only to discover that the Nazis have heard the conversation and know where they are. Then BJ was captured, his suit that was the last thing that was able to make him stand was taken. The first plan of his friends to save him failed miserably, during the court session BJ dreams about breaking out and killing every Nazi in the Room and finding his Mom. And of course the execution scene in which General Engel (the main antagonist in The new colossus) shopped his Head off and threw it in a Fire pit.

AND THEN A DRONE, STOLEN BY THE REST OF THE RESISTANCE, CAPTURES BJ'S HEAD, FLIES TO THE HIDING SPOT OF THE RESISTANCE WHO THEN CONNECT THE HEAD TO A MASHINE THAT KEEPS HIM ALIVE AND THEN HIS HEAD GETS CONNECTED TO A NEW SPECIAL SOLDIER BODY THAT THEY STOLE FROM THE NAZIS AND EVEN GETS AND UPGRADE THAT THE PLAYER CAN CHOOSE.

Tho i think the best example would be the entirety of the Old Blood. In the Beginning it was said that the Allies are losing the war, BJ and his Partner Wesley tarned tehmself as Nazis to get to Caslte wolfenstein to get the document that might change the direction of the War to the better. Plan failed, BJ gets captured, Wesley gets extremely tortured and killed. BJ breaks out, dresses up as a waiter to get closer to Helga von Schabbs who owns the important documents. Helga noticed that BJ obvisously isn't German due to his Accent and before they could arrest or kill him an explosion occures that destroyes the entire fucking Town AND DUE TO THAT EXPLOSION SOME WEIRD ASS GAS GOT RELEASED THAT TURNED THE PEOPLE (MOSTLY JUST THE NAZIS) INTO FUCKING ZOMBIES AND FORCES BJ TO FIGHT AGAINST THE NAZI ZOMBIE INFESTED TOWN. and the player has to choose between rescuing a Woman who is trying to find her Girlfriend or some dude who wants to Hijack a zeppeling and throw flyers over Berlin. (I choose to save the Girl btw.) in which one of the two gets turned into a Zombie and has to be killed shortly afterward BJ sneaks throught a cemertary to the place where the explosion came from and foughts through more Nazis and Nazi zombies (the Nazis and the Zombies are not allies btw.)

AND THEN AT THE END, BJ FINDS HELGA AGAIN AND ACCIDENTALLY BRINGS HER AN IMPORTANT DOCUMENT THAT ALLOWS HER TO SUMMON A HUGE FUCKING MONSTER KNOWN AS "THE FLESH GOLEM" OR "KING OTTOS I'S MONSTER" WHO THEN FIRST SEEM TO BE CONTROLLED BY HELGA BUT INSTEAD YEET HER OUT OF THE ROOM, BITES OFF THE HEAD OF THE IDIOT THAT WAS WITH HER AND THEN THE FINAL BATTLE BETWEEN BJ AND THE FLESH GOLEM STARTS IN WHICH ALSO NAZIS APPEAR WHO FOR SOME REASON THINK THAT IT IS MORE IMPORTANT TO SHOOT AT THE ONE ALLIED GUY INSTEAD OF THE FUCKING MONSTER!!!

And after all that, BJ gets the documents, gets saved by an old friend and then send to his 'last' fight aka. to the happenings of the first order.

Sooooo that was also only a bit of the Games, there is more serious and crazy stuff in it which is fun but also confusing because idk how i should feel about the things happening. You literally run around as a One man army, shredding Nazis like a shredder shredds paper, having the fun of you life and then suddenly you have a cutscene in which someone tells about the terrible things they saw when a nuclear bomb hit New York.

We Don't Have to Dance ||Part One

My masterlis is here and my requests are open!

Cw: Soulmate AU!, worst!Logan, use of tabacco and alcohol, poor mental health, mutant!reader fem!reader

It had been too long since your logan died. Every morning, you'd wake up in the X-Mansion, stating at the tattoo scrolled across your forearm reading, "James Howlett." Sometimes, you'd trace it with your fingers. Other times, you'd sit in your bed and cry. Those days, Colossus would have to drag out out of bed to the breakfast table.

It was one of those days. Colossus lifted you into the cook of his elbow and comforted you with his Russian songs that he continued to sing before lifting you upright and gently putting you into a your chair. Ellie and Yukio worked together in the kiten, plating you two waffles and handing it to the steel man, who, inturn sat it in front of you.

Days like this made it hard to eat. Tou mostly forked the waffles around until the others sat at the table with you, Colossus motioning to you and telling you something about eating that you were to consumed to hear.

You got the hint, though, and cut into the tiny stack of waffles to eat it. Looking up, you finally were able to tune into the conversation.

"Wade is asking us to come to a homecoming party. Imparently, there are two new additions to his single-room apartment. No, wait, she just said it's acctually three. He has a dog now, too."

"A homecoming party?" You questioned, shifting in your chair. "Who's he bring?"

"Didn't say, he says that he wants us to meet them." You nodded taking another bite as Collossus began to speak.

"How is he meant to have four people and a dog in that awfully small apartment?"

"I don't know," Yukio said," Maybe now that there is more people, they'd get enough income to movie into a new apartment?"

"That would be the realistic option," Ellie said.

You tuned out again, after that, playing with each bite of food before you ate it. Everyone's plates were already clear, and yours was down to the last bite. The moment tour fork hit your empty plate, you grabbed everyone eles' and stacked it onto yours. The looked at you, and Ellie and Yukio smiled.

As you walked towards the sink with the empty plates, you could hear them mutter about how you're getting better every day.

You pulled on the flats you were wearing in compbation with the mid-thigh kahki shorts. You had on some random white sleeve shirt, you didn't really care. What was important whas the lethar jacket ontop. It didn't smell like him anymore, but it reminded you of Logan. And it scared the people away. Any man that tried hitting on you, he tended to run away. You took a deep breath as tou treaded down the stairs to the kitchen to grab the pan of brownies that you'd made. Once it was secure in your hands, you twisted to run out the door, joining the others outside the vehicle that Colossus decided we take.

You didn't notice how long the drive was, you spent the whole thing looking out the window, watching the racing rain drops on the glass. You came to tour attention when you were all parked on the curb. You cringed, slightly. Colossus was usually a good driver, unless it came to parallel parking. You undid your seatbelt and situated the brownies under your jacket do they wouldn't get rained on. You threw open the door and slid out of the car, sprinting towards the apartment entrance. The others followed suit.

You made your way up the the second story and knocked on the door. Peter opened it for you and you thanked him, feeling towards the tiny table, not noticing the other people around aside for Buck, who sat silently at the table. You leaned close to him and squeezed his shoulders, whispering, "you can have the first brownie. Since you're my favorite."

She started to try and say thank you but you shushed him. "Hush, Wade says something like you've not spoken since the first movie or something. I done think you're allowed to talk," she joked. Buck only shook his head and grabbed his knife from his hip and cut into the brownies. You stood up and clapped your hands as you dpun around, speaking loud.

"Alrighty, Wade, who's the spec-" the words caught in your throat as you saw wade standing next to Logan and Laura. Your whole body went fridgid. Goosebumps ran up your skin and your throat went dry. You just sat there, still as death, stating at logan.

"[Y/n]! This is Logan and laura," and he held up the tiny dog in his hands. "And this is Mary Puppins, but we call her dogpool."

You didn't even pay attention, to shocked to speak. He looked so much like logan, just a little younger. He didn't seems sick, and he was staring right at you.

"[Y/N]," Colossus started, "It's him." You glanced at Colossus, and when Logan tried to take a step forward to you, you backed up, hitting the table.

"What is going on here," Wade asked, finally noticing the tension that the x-men had had since the moment that they walked in. "I don't understand. Did all of our panties turn to thongs?" He stuck his hand into his pants, "No, but I'm sensing some serious tension."

"I've got to go," you said, turning to go.out the door.

"No, [Y/N], Wait." Colossus was one step ahead and grabbed your shoulder, pulling you away from the door and towards the sofa. "You're staying here. You do not have a ride home. This could be good for you."

You were only silent, choosing not to fight. Instead, you chose to just listen to Colossus, shrugging his massive hand off, and sitting on the couch. You eyed logan the whole time. He had the same tells as before, but something about him was different. This wasn't the same Logan.

Wade handed the dog over to Logans arms, and he looked slightly disgusted at Wade, but quickly smiled at the dog as Wade began speaking. He clapped his hands. "Alright, everyone. These are my new friends. This is Logan, I found him in another universe and fed him like a dog, so I had to bring him home. As I think some if you know, this is his daughter x-23, also named Laura! And that little honeymuffin angel love is Mary Puppins, as stated before!"

You pursed your lips and watched the events unfold,unsure of what to do. Now that you realized that this Logan was from another place? It kicked you in the butt all over again that your soulmate really is dead.

"But peanut here is a new anchor being, so he's fixed out universe," Wade conveniently said, placing a hand on Logan's shoulder. You frowned. Nobody could replace your logan. Not the love you had with him. You nodded silently, trying to acknowledge what wade was saying, but became distraught. It only got worse when Logan sat in a chair, across from you.

He didn't say anything, he just sat there. Everybody had moved in with their party, taking to Laura and boggling at the now free dog. Exept you and Logan. You two just sat there, not talking, and occasionally looking to one another, only to look back down to the floor. It was like that for the whole night. Until Colossus said it was time to do home. You both sat there in silence, sitting in the bree of whatever your thoughts were.

When you did return to the mansion, you didn't say anything. You just went up the stairs into your room, and cried yourself to sleep.

[swordsonnet-bardofwar]

*Wade and Logan visiting the X-Men*

Logan: *starts doing the kneading thing cats do, yes, claws included*

Wade immediately, grinning like a bastard: Aww, look at the little kitty! Are you feeling comfortable?

Logan: *glaring* I am not a cat

Cue all of the X-Men compiling a list of reasons as to why Logan is similar to a cat.

His hair looks like little cat ears - Scott

I mean, he does like sunbeams - Jean

He often behaves like cat, growling at people he does not like - Collossus

If he starts purring, I’m out - Laura

And many more..

Logan doesn't know of he should feel insulted or not. He decides to go pout in some hidden corner, but Wade keeps finding and distracting him; he can't stay mad at them for long.

Why are whales so big?

This is a complicated question with several factors contributing to their Bigness!

1. They live in the water. Things can get bigger in the water because it counteracts the force of gravity. The biggest sauropods were longer than whales but they were adapted to be much lighter, because they had to deal with gravity in a way that whales don’t.

2. Bigger mouth means more food intake, and more food intake allows for bigger bodies. Most of the very large whales are filter feeders, and the bigger a filter feeder’s mouth is, the more it can consume at one time. So there was an evolutionary advantage to being bigger, and this sort of created a feedback loop that resulted in very very large whales. Sperm whales got big independently because they evolved to take on big-ass squid.

3. Sudden lack of predators. Up until a few million years ago, there were huge motherfucker predators like Megalodon and Livyatan Melvillei that ate big whales. Filter-feeding whales had to be smaller and quicker because big, slow ones would’ve been eaten. When those animals died out, there were suddenly no disadvantages to becoming Large, so whales went wild.

However, this is just about modern whales. Up until recently, we assumed that whales were more medium-to-small in the past and the Hugeness was a pretty new phenomenon. But now we know about Perucetus collossus, the giant ultra-dense boi which lived only about ten million years after whales took to the water. Exactly what lead to its largeness isn’t known yet, but it’s possible that big whales are just inevitable. They entered the ocean and now nothing can stop them. They are dedicated to pushing the boundaries of life and we will bear witness to their grandeur. All hail the whales.

Logan gets Yeeted Part 1

One day when I'm not struggling with executive dysfunction I'll make a compilation of Logan's yeetings. They're hilarious and they happen a decent amount by friend and foe alike. He's been yeeted into space and across continental United States.

Here's Collossus doing the yeeting for self explained reasons, a shorter trip. HEYYYYYYY!

As a special treat here's animated Chuck being yeeted by the Juggernaut.

See ya baldie!

@bathmob Ok so for those of you who don’t know, in the comics there are two origins for the Guardians version of Groot (spoilers for 2014’s Guardians of the Galaxy #14 and 2015’s Groot #6, in case you haven’t read either of those runs):

The first one comes from 2014’s Guardians of the Galaxy #14 in a story titled “Groot’s Tale” where we see Groot as a Flora Colossus seedling on his home planet, Planet X. Where he’s seen as a bit of an outcast amoung his peers. Mostly for befriending a group of intelligent animals that also inhabit the planet called Maintenance Mammals, who are looked down on by the rest of Flora Colossus Society.

One day while visiting some of the Mammals, groot sees a group of other Flora Colossus bullying a squirrel like mammal, and Groot intervenes to protect it. This escalates to one of the flora colossai nearly killing the mammal, causing Groot to basically snap and kill the bully in a fight.

This catches the attention of the Flora Collossai elders, the Arbor Masters, who banish groot from Planet X for his crimes.

Later in 2015, we got a similar but different origin for Groot in the Groot miniseries by Jeff Loveness and Brian Kesinger akathecomicwithtgebestversionofgrootdont@me.

In the sixth issue, we see one of Groot’s memories of his time living on Planet X. Here the Flora Collossai society is depicted as even more shady, with them visiting different worlds to kidnap other races for experimentation.

Groot is seemingly one of the few Flora Colossus who feels uncomfortable with this. That, coupled with him being small in size by Flora Colossus standards, makes Groot somthing of an outcast among his own kind. That is, until he meets a captured human girl.

Meeting her is what spurs him to action, freeing her from her captivity, teleporting her back to earth, and breaking the teleportation pad so none of the other Flora Colossus can find her.

After this, Groot gets banished and wanders the Galaxy for an unspecified amount of time before meeting Rocket in a kree prison and, eventually, joining the Guardians.

I dont know if it’s ever been confirmed which one is canon (I assume the 2015 version serves as a retcon of the 2014 one?), but either way;

Groot broke the laws/taboo of his people by helping to protect a smaller creature and got banished from Planet X by his large, imposing elders as a result. Which could very well be what the panel in the anti-bullying comic is referencing.

It could also be a reference to Groot’s original 1960s incarnation who was a villainous giant monster, but that’s a whole other can of worms and there are a few videos that explain it better than I could:

Narrative Permission

People can do a lot of different things and RPGs are usually not concerned with making up rules for every single possible action anyone could take.

There are some actions that are neither so common that it can be reasonably assumed that anyone can do them nor are they something that the game system concerns itself with.

Languages and artistic skills are pretty common examples that less complex systems usually don't bother with. In cases like this, your background could give you the narrative permission to use these skills.

For example, if your Scoundrel character in Thirsty Sword Lesbians is a musician you have the narrative permission to play a song to impress the Baroness while other characters might not. Functionally, you are still just rolling +Heart for an Entice move, but you can flavour it differently.

Another type of narrative permission can be found in Call of Cthulhu.

While your skills are obviously mostly there so you can roll skillchecks, they can also grant various kinds of narrative permissions.

For example, while regular driving explicitly doesn't require a skill check, you're (usually) still going to require narrative permission through skill investment to drive anything that isn't a car. For example, if you want to drive around in some kind of construction vehicle like an excavator, you're gonna need a couple of skill points in heavy machenery, even if you don't need to roll to drive it (again, assuming regular driving. If you're in a desperate fight against a dark young and try to hit it with an excavator despite not having any experience controlling one, go ahead and roll for it)

High levels in skills can also give you narrative permission to know a guy. An average investigator probably isn't going to know any professors of physics but if you have a high education stat, you might know someone.

Equipment in CoC is also mostly done through narrative permission. While you might name some important items explicitly during character creation, most possesions in the game are handled by asking "Would it be reasonable for someone like this to have this?"

Does the 1920s student own a truck capable of transporting a bunch of crates full of evidence? Probably not. Does the 1930s smuggler? Of course.

In ICON, there are many cases where narrative permission plays an interesting role.

Obviously they only matter for narrative play because in tactical combat, what you can and can't do is pretty strictly defined. However, your abilities in tactical combat can influence your narrative permissions.

A spellblade with various teleport abilities has narrative permission to teleport. Depending on the GM, this may increase effect or decrease risk on some Traverse checks, or it might even remove the need for them entirely.

But this can only get you so far. If you didn't put any points in Smash, no amount of arguing about being a Collossus who can do all kinds of cool Smash-adjacent things in combat is going to make it so you have more than 0 Smash in narrative. You need to select your narrative skills in a way that supports the fantasy of your character, including their tactical combat fantasy.

Also there is your narrative gear, which isn't supposed to represent every single piece of equipment your character posses, just the stuff that really matters, and which broadly falls into two categories: Things that are listed there so you don't have to argue about whether you have it (e.g. light sources, rations, a tent) and things that are supposed to inspire you (e.g. single-use flash bomb, copious sweets)

Both exist to grant you narrative permissions, but the first category is more about making sure you have narrative permissions you probably would have had anyway in a system without gear tracking (such as previous editions of ICON), the second category can actually expand your narrative permissions or give you new ideas for things to do.

Without your gear explicitly mentioning you have these things you might have never even gotten the idea of using a flash bomb to escape the guards, or use sweets to calm down a child. But even if you had gotten the idea on your own, explicitly calling out that you have these things can save a lot of time on trying to convince your GM that you have them.

However, the flipside to this is that having a gear system like this makes the gaps stand out more. I keep bringing up not having to convince your GM that you have something, but if there is something that you feel like you should have but that isn't listed in your gear, the existence of the gear system might make it harder to convince them that you should have it.

The system is an interesting middle ground between gearing systems that make you track everything you have (e.g. dnd 5e) and one that barely makes you track anything (e.g. CoC)

Are there any intersting examples of narrative permission you know?
