thinking about white-collar office worker au where all the sodor railway blokes are working their remote jobs doing business management for the railway companies and its The Most Office Job Environment Ever.

Henry is the idiot who's muted over zoom and doesn't know it until someone tells him he's muted and he can't figure out why. James and Thomas get a screen cap of him leaning in trying to figure it out and change their Webcam backgrounds so everyone thinks they're Henry all the time.

Edward is the human resources representative and he is so fucking overworked by these clowns.

Gordon is the floor administrator and is looking for ANY valid reason to fire James but James is so fucking good at marketing he can't in good conscience get rid of him.

Percy is the IT wizard who everyone assumes is a robot and sleeps in the office and can fix literally anything. No one knows how. It Just Works™️. Gordon struggling with his Webcam and Percy sneezes on it: fixed. Convinced he is just an AI.

Thomas is the temp worker who never left.

The skarloey and culdee fell railway representatives work on the floor below them and just have constant noise complaints.

Plus they all get cute button ups and ties.

always happy about the fact that in 2012, mikey often asked donnie questions if he didn't understand something and donnie always answered no matter what

this can be seen in a bunch of episodes but my favorite example of it it's the one in half shell heroes where mikey is extremely excited to be in the museums and is the one actively asking donnie questions about the exhibits they saw and also actively listening to donnie's explanation (before raph got silly lmao). he was very excited to learn!!!

And while it's true that mikey would lose interest quite fast if the explanation got too lengthy with too many technical terms, it doesn't change the fact that he does retain the info donnie is always rambling on about different things!!! (even if mikey himself doesn't notice he's doing it lol) and also i find it very sweet that no matter if donnie himself got annoyed, donnie would always answer the questions. no matter what. he would always try to explain if he didn't understand something

This is prob because mikey is the one brother who is often seeking out donnie to pass time around him Meaning that donnie might have used mikey as his rubber ducky whenever mikey hangs out with him while he's working (explained him a lot of his experiments and theories while trying to solve them himself and in this way mikey also learnt in the process WHILE spending time with his brother! win win!)

it also helps donnie because accompanies him while not letting him get lonely in his lab 24/7, sometimes explaining things to someone makes it better to understand it yourself AND it's shown in the comics that donnie is quite used to his brothers just Living as background noise and literally cannot function without it lmao

They are literally the two smart kids in the family even if none of them notice it and it's all because mikey looks up to his brother and is like an sponge with donnie around. donnie is actively teaching mikey and mikey is learning! even if they have no idea they are doing it

vivienne having "early promise" in the orlesian game at the age of nineteen when she previously spent her entire life in the free marches (born in wycome and raised in the ostwick circle tower) kind of rots my brain. the orlesian game takes years to master, the slightest mistake can end with your social (and often times, literal) death, and yet vivienne thrived in montsimmard and the orlesian court. but i can't get over the fact that she was nineteen and showing so much promise. a free marcher at nineteen who's never stepped foot in orlais before transferring to the montsimmard circle.

and then i think about the fact that vivienne only mentions her time in the montsimmard circle when you ask her what her experience was like in the circles. the only knowledge we have about her time in the ostwick circle is that she was put through the harrowing young and this voice line from cole:

people who dont take iron bull and viv with them are missing out

[leliwardens]

so leliana's type is moronsexual (the warden) but also morally dubious orlesian older women (justinia, marjolaine) so therefor in a non-leliwarden worldstate that would make leliana/vivienne not only possible, but inevitable.

Yk. I love Ruin saying that he would do it all over again if he had to. Why not put Ruin in a time loop of it, hm? Make him relive the week up to his "grand finale" and study him to see if he continues to stand by his word but slowly loses all care and regard for the world around him or see if his resolve slowly crumbles away with each loop ^_^

It's funny how in my first ever runs of Inquisition, I could never figure out how to befriend Vivienne while being anti-Circle and now she's one of the first people Lyris befriends along with Solas and Varric. It's all about choosing dialogue tactically and being smart in navigating the conversation and then by the time I get to Skyhold, she's fussing over Lyris and checking in with her.

I just love their friendship to bits 💜

hi. i'm the same anon from earlier. the one who has been stalking the blog. i dug up and reread your comic called "shedtime stories" after a rough day and just wanted to mention how sweet it is. it healed my heart so i guess i'm just trying to say thank you.

sincerely, an anon.

im happy to hear you enjoyed it. thanks !

thinking about the fact that compared to literally any other single iteration of tmnt, the 2012 boys seems to be the ones who truly never left the sewers not even once ever since they got mutated

meaning that they truly spent the first 15 years of their life underground

When they first get out of the manhole in the first episode None of the brothers show any sign of recognition of their surroundings meaning that none of them, not even once, actually got to go that far

this is cemented by the way they all are actually very excited of what they are seeing for the first time ever at every single step they make (except for raph maybe lmao but i think thats because he didn't want to look silly like his bros)

AND ALSO HOW THEY DON'T RECOGNIZE OTHER FOOD THAT ISNT ALGAE AND WORMS 😭(because of what raph said of not knowing anything better than that) THEY FR SURVIVED WITH WHAT LITTLE SCRAPS SPLINTER COULD FIND AND LITERAL ALGAE AND WORMS. LEO IS SO WORRIED ABOUT MIKEY EATING THE PIZZA

they were so excited about being topside....it was a whole new world for them......

going off topic a bit but this all is definitely another reason on why mikey's relationship with food is the way it is

He literally has so many new possibilities to cook with other ingredients that aren't algae and worms and in this process he ends up making combinations that would make rise mikey cry blood

considering vivienne, dorian, and solas' dynamic in a pro-templar inquisition with an inquisitor who is extremely anti-mage is fascinating to me. especially since dorian is the only one of the three who has the option to leave– solas must remain to regain his orb and vivienne cannot risk losing any more political/social standing than she already has for her own safety and the safety of the remaining loyalist mages. solas is invaluable with his knowledge on the fade and otherwise makes himself small and unnoticeable, but vivienne doesn't have the ability to do that– and more than that, she has built herself up her entire life to do the exact OPPOSITE of that.

it's a very interesting mix of solas keeping to the sidelines to hopefully avoid conflict until he can get what he needs to further his own goals, dorian's refusal to back down in the face of anyone and his pride potentially putting him at risk to the point of being removed from the inquisition altogether, and vivienne needing to remain in the good graces of the inquisitor while simultaneously using her skills in negotiation and manipulation to keep the inquisitor from turning their templars onto the few mages who remain. spinning them in my brain

i dont think i ever posted these so here's chronos and viv banter based on viv's godmother status to his daugther jenny

Vivienne: Darling, I must say young Jen’s form has improved quite a bit since our last session. Have you been training at home as well?

Chronos: Well, I don't, no. Bull’s been showing her how to swing a sword ‘In case her magic ever stops magic-ing’.

Chronos: Why? Is her sword arm useful in magic?

Vivienne: Not necessarily, not yet. She does strike me as a talented mage. You should consider letting her explore and try to train as a knight enchanter. She has the potential.

Chronos: How could I refuse when you offer?

-

Chronos: Jen says.. uhm.

Chronos: You let her set the clothes of a nobleman on fire?

Vivienne: (Hums) The foolish man made a crude remark, I showed her that she doesn’t have to accept that. 

Chronos: What did he say?

Vivienne: Something about bringing a Qunari into Orlais as soon as possible was smart so Jen doesn’t have the time to become barbaric like other Qunari.

Chronos: Now I wish I got to set his clothes on fire.

-

Chronos: Did you buy Jen jewellery for her horns? Vivienne: They look quite fetching on her, don’t you think?

Chronos: (Laughs) They do! Bull adores them.

Vivienne: Your husband is a man of fine taste.
