#divorce mention tw

[ladyseidr]

okay but wishlist item: literally anything with elise and william but post divorce. i think they should have the most stilted, uncomfortable conversations you've every seen and then immediately hook up again and then never talk about it. it didn't happen. they totally hate each other now ( still totally in love ).

What is the character’s favorite family tradition and why is it significant?

"Traditions, traditions, traditions," Himiko paces around trying to tries to think of those tender childhood family moments like the ones in the Hallmark movies or those cosy Disney movies she once use to adore, but with every memory came new people deeper in the images. "Truth me told...we don't really have many family traditions," she popped open a glass of Champagne pouring it into a flute glass, watching as the bubbles floated to the top. "Like...I didn't really have a normal family. Mama and Papa got divorced when I was about seven."

She took another sip recalling her family tree," Then Papa got married to Sofia, then Mama married Sofia's ex husband Antonio, then Sofia divorced Papa as he was sleeping with Antonio and lead Mama to divorce Antonio and then she married Maxwell and then...." she pauses."Or did Papa marry Maxwell? Or am I thinking about Maxwell number 4." Himiko chewed her lip trying hard to remember,"See this is why I kinda stick to numbering their partners...like Mama is on partner number seven and Papa is on partner nine, which was partner number four who he got back together with." She laughs taking a long sip.

"I guess you could call it a tradition to see who my parents are happy with in the moment," Himiko cheers,"But I'm the only child from each of their longest marriage." She smiles,"Oh wait! The tradition sometimes tends to be who can bribe me more with the better Christmas Vaccay each year. I'm a tough cookie to impress. And sometimes they don't win that, I do!"

Divorce quartets dynamic is fucking funny this season. Scott and Martyn decided to move in with each other and steal Cleo's brand of being Mean Girls. Pearl passive aggressively asking Martyn if he has Tilly and Martyn going "oh yeah I cremated her :)" and throwing gunpowder on the floor. Martyn telling BigB not to trust Pearl because if "the moon is high, you might die". Cleo gaslighting Pearl into being her ally and then when Cleo asks for books Pearl straight up lies and starts punching BigB so he won't tell her. Cleo and Martyn having the world's most awkward conversation and Cleo going "you and Scott are... sort of survivery". Pearl standing on a tree and staring at Scott instead of walking up to him like a normal person. Scott spending an entire episode making his and Martyn's house look cute and designing their shared storage system to only suit him and leaving Martyn to cope. Cleo doing their very best to ignore them all and juggling Scar and Bdubs forcing her to adopt them, allying with the entire server and the Bad Boys turning their base into bread and killing them whilst Pearl is like thirty blocks away and blatantly not helping. Most divorced polycule EVER. I am studying their relationship under a microscope.

Yeah, I mean I no doubt it is terrifying along the way. After my divorce it felt that way. Because it was so quick and I had just a little while before thought I had it all figured out. Clearly I didnt have myself. Mhmm Kind of relegated whoever is next they are literally going to have to be patient. Well that's good you are doing fine and it was totally their loss truly more than yours.

you're absolutely right, liz. life is all about growth and change, and sometimes that means relearning ourselves along the way. and hey, discovering new preferences like suddenly hating eggs? totally part of the journey. exploring our options and embracing singleness with confidence and zest is where it's at. you're the cutest, thanks for the empathy about my last break up - it was a bit of a shock, but i'm doing just fine now. bringing back those 90s looks for fun sounds like a blast.

Hey guys so I really need to vent rn cuz my parents are getting a divorce and if I randomly stop posting, this'll be the reason/evidence soooo have fun reading, if you want to of course

TW: Divorce, Possible Violence???

Soooooo it all started when my mom found out that my dad has been letting one of our tenants girlfriend live there at the house that both my parents own for about 3 weeks now rent free, and never told her. This was a couple days ago. Of course my mom was pissed and has been really mean to my dad (deservingly of course cuz he’s a fucking waste of a man and a father) and now they’re getting a divorce. Many other things have led to this divorce but I won’t tell them all rn. I’m not scared of them getting a divorce either cuz for as long as I can remember, they have never really loved each other, and this is very much needed, cuz I’m pretty sure they have been together all this time cuz of me. But I know it’s not my fault and I have no place to speak, but I still need to tell someone, anyone in case my father does try to hurt me and/or my mom. If anything crazy happens trust me, I’m not afraid to dox this man, he’s a man who loves to get his revenge but that made me a woman who loves to get her sweet justice. So to prevent you guys from worrying too much about me, I’ll try to post something everyday, whether it be a drawing, doodle, or just a text post saying I’m ok. No, I’m not looking for attention, I just need to get this off my chest.

Ty for reading 💖💖💖

Celeste’s family used to go to Kalos 2-3 times a year for vacation. Mostly to see family on the holidays and explore the region.

Her mom has also taken this time to catch up with Professor Sycamore; they were college friends who still keep some communication between each other despite their vastly different fields.

There haven’t been any trips to Kalos since the attack and divorce. Even with Celeste and her mom moving to Paldea. And she had little to no memory of these trips.

I will forever be thinking about Red Hood's fall in the vat. Just the angst of it is just *chef's kiss*

The sentiment of betrayal from Joker at Batman, the shame and guilt of Batman for failing Joker. I bet they both think about that moment a lot, wondering what could've been (specially Bruce on that) Did they remember the exact date? Have nightmares about it?

I wish comics would dwell on that more

Not entirely sure if you're the same Anon, but it felt like these two asks are connected. And I gotta say, yes, 100% agree.

I love the original portrayal of the fall into the vat, the way it was done before Zero Year. I do love what Snyder did with Joker, but I really dislike what he did with his origin in that comic. Making Red Hood obsessed with Batman from the very start, making him let go and smile as he does it to spite Batman... it entirely redefines his motivations and makes him too much about Batman. The way I personally reconcile Zero Year and The Killing Joke plus all other depictions of the acid vat fall (like in It's Joker Time) is through what Bruce and Joker need to believe.

Snyder's already established that Bruce and Joker remember things differently. In Endgame, Joker accuses Batman of having pushed him off a cliff in Death of the Family, when in actuality it was Joker himself who let go. In a similar manner, I think that Bruce is remembering Red Hood's fall as done intentionally to spite him because he'd rather not see it as a suicide attempt, done by someone scared and at the end of his rope. It's easier to think of it that way, isn't it? Red Hood was crazy and refused to let Batman save him on purpose; it wasn't that Batman failed to do it, it wasn't that he scared the guy so much he chose to go over a railing.

But well, I do forgive Snyder for this, because he's the one to write most of these moments of conflict when it comes to Joker's feelings towards Batman... like in Endgame, and Batman (2011) #48.

I can't help but gush over some more depictions of it though, like in the following story:

Batman: Black and White (2020) #2 -- The Spill

I love this little comic for this, for showing Joker pissed off at his supposed dependence on Batman and being like "You know what, fuck you, this time I'm letting you die". And then Batman being incapable of not saving him, even after Joker was going to walk away.

Then there's Joker's nightmare in Knight Terrors, even more recently:

Knight Terrors: The Joker (2023)

Beautiful imagery of Bruce stuffing his mouth with lobster aside... Joker's nightmare is basically Batman dying, and then him being incapable of finding another purpose. Him managing to kill Batman isn't shown as something victorious for him, it's realizing that he put too many of his eggs in one basket and thinking that perhaps he doesn't like that. That being so obsessed with Batman is not something he wants. God, there's so much to say about Knight Terrors and Joker's portrayal in it, but perhaps the most potent imagery is at the end of his nightmare. Joker's always wanted to infect everyone else with his laughter, with his way of thinking... and it finally happens. But then, he doesn't want it, because what Gotham wants to do now is destroy Batman. To kill order, sense:

Knight Terrors: The Joker (2023)

This is a literal depiction of Joker's conflicted feelings over Batman, because his psyche split after Batman's death. Part of him became Batman in the absence of him, and part of him remained a Joker who refused to admit Batman was dead. And then these two parts each acted in different ways, gave different orders... the part of him that was pure Joker ordered his followers to not listen to the part of him that needed Batman. Rosenberg, I am kissing you on the mouth for this one.

Oof, I got this long and didn't even mention Joker War, but yeah! In case you haven't read these two stories, I recommend them for showcasing Joker's conflicted love/hate relationship with Batman, and what he means to him.

“Well, I think everyone kinda sucks when they start something new… but I think you should, I think it’d be fun. And if you end up hating what you’ve written, you don’t need to show it to anyone,” she encouraged, nodding up at him. “Mm… that’s a good question. I feel like I hardly even have time to think about what else I might want to do. Honestly? My life is pretty full up with things I love. Work is fairly all-consuming, but I absolutely love it, and then being a mom… I suppose… well, I suppose I always dreamed of having more than one child. But that’s not really possible now, given the whole siren thing…” she murmured. “Do you- is-“ she paused, letting out a nervous sigh. “You said you wanted children, and I know it’s our first date but I suppose there’s no point there being a second if you- if- well, I couldn’t give you a child. Is… is that… how do you feel about that?” she asked gently.

Her head tilted into his touch as his hand found her jaw, large fingers sweeping ever so gently over her skin. “Did you ever get any closure? Did she ever tell you why she left?” she asked softly, not wanting to push JD to share if he didn’t want to. Nova couldn’t help but break into a shy grin at his words, nodding a few times in agreement as her arms slid around his neck. His next words made her heart swell once more, arms tightening as her forehead found his. Everything he said was what she had wanted to hear from someone for so long, and despite having only known him a little while, he made her feel so safe. Leaning up, her lips brushed his, whispering a soft “thank you” against them before kissing him gently, her eyes fluttering closed. 

He smiled “I know, I love it when they do” JD nodded, it hasn’t been the first time he had to listen and it wasn’t too late “I think is more about being a bit scared that I might suck” He laughed “But hey who knows I probably force myself to do it” JD smiled “Do you have anything like that, something you want to do, but you haven’t because life routine?”

JD looked down at their hands together “I just sometimes wish she would have told me she was not happy, instead of leaving me thinking that things were fine, you know.” When she kissed his hand he smiled and instinctively caressed when jawline, completely lost in her eyes, “I'm not really happy that it happened, but I’m happy that I decided to go to that coffee shop that morning and share a table with you… And I will never leave you unnoticed”

He smiled at her and gave her a soft kiss “I’m sure that you will always be his number one person. What you did for him, is something that he will never forget, so no matter what if he now also has his dad there for him, he will always have you first. You are a great mother.”

"Babe, we didn't even get married a year ago, and I'm so hopelessly in love with you. Divorce will never, ever cross my mind. I can promise you that. Sterling Skye is just the best little girl we have. Oh, right. That serious thing. What do you want to do for my birthday this year?"

“I don’t know, you said we have something serious to talk about. Can’t get more serious than that, right? I agree though. Everything for Ster girl. What did you want to talk about though?”
