#deposits him

[inspectorspacetimerevisited]

As the BOOTH is wont to do, she deposits the Inspector right in Mona’s path.

But, Mona clearly doesn’t know who the Inspector is … because of all that muck he stuffed her brain with in order to confuse it so she didn’t recognise him!

also, once again I am holding up my cat and in true 'is this a pigeon' fashion, asking 'is this a Logan??'

only the answer is YES

anyway Logan really likes some stinks that most people would find repulsive (like, dead stuff, and garbage, and... Wade. He's a scavenger!) But he's really sensitive to other smells, especially essential oils. This includes the oils on orange rind, after it's first been peeled.

Wade likes having an orange in the morning, but for the next hour - or until he's thoroughly washed his hands - Logan does NOT want to be touched. Of course, he isn't going to admit this over something as silly as a smell. But he is gonna do the cat slinky thing where they kinda flex liquidly out the way of any contact, when they Do Not Want The Stinky Thing to touch them

Curly had two days to act and Swansea had two months.

I think it’s just interesting that every defense of Swansea not immediately acting are the same ones that are argued against for Curly. “He didn’t want to alert Daisuke or makes things worse for Anya either Jimmy!” I mean people also assume that about Curly and the crew. “He has to think about his plan of action and a right moment!” Again so did Curly, power and authority aside, he still would have to think of what he had to do. “He makes sure he doesn’t have to be around Jimmy!” So did Curly and they only do this to an extent, both give Jimmy more than a few opening to keep harassing Anya.

This isn’t defense of Curly nor a damnation of Swansea. Their actions are very parallel to each others in tragic and sour ways when it comes to how they approached helping Anya. In the grand scheme of it all they both did the same thing: Nothing. No action either took stopped the inevitable outcome of her death nor Jimmy’s continued damage to themself.

The only real difference is Swansea didn’t like Jimmy which is pretty substantial, but also just as damning as Curly knowing how bad Jimmy could get to an extent. He had even less of a reason to wait, even more of a reason to act seeing as he was now worried for Anya AND Daisuke. He is not bound by the possible procedure as Captain and actively does not care about what happens next. So what does it matter if he acted in the moment? Why did he wait? I think he’s just as morally complex and grey as Curly and we hold him on a pedestal that still perpetuates things in rape culture the game critiques.

It’s not just enough to dislike and be abrasive to predators/abusers like Jimmy. It’s not enough to just put yourself between them and the other person. It’s not enough to hold tensions when you know someone is vulnerable. He and Curly do the exact same things but on different sides of the coin. I ask how is it better to not turn a blind eye but still not really do anything about what you are seeing? Not until it affects you atleast…

The game makes a big point to not put men doing the bare minimum or who wait to do more on pedestals and I’m actually surprised so many are missing that point.

landlord gave me notice at 3pm thursday and by 9am tomorrow, sunday march 10th 2024, propelled by equal parts terror and incandescent fury, i will be putting in an offer to buy An Entire House.

i mean, it's a nice and low-risk little house, at a price that makes it a no-brainer to jump on it before it goes - but still, this is fucking surreal. i could technically have had the offer in by 3pm today; this is me taking the time to think it over. except there's not much to think over: i need a place and this one's solid, and the monthly payment is the exact same as what i was just offered in order to rent half as much duplex by the landlord who's kicking me out to renovate and price-gouge.

and i'm not gonna pretend one of the emotions driving my haste here isn't the vicious satisfaction of having just enough fuck-you money to pull this off. in all likelihood i'll be filling out mortgage paperwork by the time his ass even gets around to fitting a walkthrough of the half-duplex into his busy house-flipping schedule, and if he wanted his model tenant placidly paying the extortion rent on that place - two days before the first of every month like i've been doing for the five years i've lived here - then maybe he shouldn't have fucking dicked me around.

if lan xichen thought it was 'cool' of nie mingjue to try to kill jin guangyao at any point, he would not have placed himself between baxia and jin guangyao. which is something he does, every single time. because he does not think it is okay for nie mingjue to try to kill jin guangyao.

can whoever has had the jin guangyao hateboner for the past week, like... go outside for 5 minutes the next time they feel like shrieking about how much they hate jin guangyao into the danmei confessions askbox. maybe take up birdwatching. cross-stitch? pet a cat.

just some suggestions.

in your gage pov, you mentioned that he had hairless legs. why is this? if he was spliced with dog dna wouldn’t he be hairier? did he have leg hair before going through the experimentation?

Gage/Christer suffered from a pretty bad case of delayed puberty so he had almost no body hair even at 17-19 when he finally started showing signs of puberty. When his DNA was spliced he only grew fur where he already had some hair growth (like under his arms and the pubic area); that's one of the reason his tail is completely hairless actually despite his ears being covered in hair/fur !

So that's why his legs remained hairless despite the dog DNA.

Funnily (or not) enough, it seems that Coeus fucking around with his DNA might have fucked with his puberty, so Gage will stay small and hairless except if he like, gets hormone therapy. Which he won't.

He's pretty much an accidental human micro-pig at this point, or I guess a teacup man-dog ? Don't support petite bishōnen man-dogs they are made unethically :-(

I know ax hates music but as probably cliche as it is, i feel like he would like fireflies by owl city. I think the main reason he doesn't like earth music is cause he was living in the 90s, aka the height of boy bands and spice girls and Brittany spears and although they can be fun, for me at least a lot of them were acquired tastes. They are very in your face to say the least. I think he would like more relaxing stuff.

At first hes confused by the song "what does this mean????" But then starts vibing with it.

If y'all had to nominate exactly one human-made song that Ax actually kinda likes, what would it be?

We have one vote for Fireflies by Owl City.

My vote is Sandstorm by Darude.

the best part of a new hope is how after obi-wan dies, you can see the shift where han realizes that he’s now the only one left to be the adult in this situation on account of not being either a robot or literally nineteen, and he hates it so much. he’s gonna be a responsible adult but he’s not gonna be mature about it. he’s also wrong. because chewbacca is there.

“And the following night in Boston, Armand was in the dining room of the Copley when Daniel came in. Daniel’s dinner was already ordered. Please sit down. Did Daniel know that Interview with the Vampire was in the bookstores?”

Was doing some research about what the Copley would have looked like when Armand ordered the entire menu and found this:

Assuming the Copley refers to the Fairmont Copley Plaza (which it must, all of the old articles I can find refer to it as just The Copley), the dining room was dominated by a rotating merry go round bar until 1978. The merry go round would finish a rotation once every hour, and you could eat dinner and sip cocktails while it went around.

There were even postcards of it that you could mail home:

(postcard circa 1930s)

By the time Daniel and Armand visited the decor had been updated, and looked something closer to this:

(this photo is from the 1960′s, surely by the 70′s it was even tackier)

So just imagine the surrealism of Daniel downing glass after glass of wine and having Armand have to help his drunk ass down off this thing, all while he goes through an emotional crisis over finding Armand hot when he laughs.

It’s no wonder they ended up together, Daniel is the only person wild enough to decide to go to dinner alone in the kind of bizarre place Armand would be attracted to.
