red ochre [2]
series masterlist previous || part two -> woad and weld || part three -> tbd
pairing: viking goap x fem! nun reader summary: you recover from the boat, and wonder why you were taken w.c: 3.9k tags/warnings: pain, caretaking, food, stomach issues, threats, mean simon, fears of rape (doesn't happen), viking-typical slavery, unwanted cuddling / massage / touching, alcohol, scars, violence, hunting, laswell hello!, reader has some puritanical attitudes / assumptions but she was a nun so, power imbalance, dubcon comfort, crying, religious themes (dldr)
You're a stone sunk to the bottom of the ocean, pulled under by exhaustion and turmoil. It's the sleep of the dead, dreamless and unreachable.
Vaguely, in moments of semi-consciousness, you hear voices and feel softness against your skin, warmth all around you. The brush of fingers against your cheeks.
When you do wake, it's like crossing between different worlds, with a head full of cotton and fog. Your sense of smell comes alive before anything else, the smell of food permeating the air around you.
Fish. Cream. Something herbaceous, something earthy. A fire crackles closeby, warming the air, warming you. You can feel fur touching your arms and legs, draped over you and flat underneath you.
It only serves to soften to blow of pain, overwhelming pain. True awareness comes then, waking you with a gasp that alerts-
"Did she just-"
"Sh!" Simon's voice, coming closer. "You awake?" his face comes into view above - you only recognize him by voice.
He's scarred, big and small, but the most eye-catching one bisects his face, splitting it into two from his cheekbone to his jaw on the other side. It's deep, raised, angry even if you can tell it's healed.
You scream.
It's a weak sound, the cry of somebody that knows it's pointless and yet can't help but shout into the void and hope that something will answer.
Before, that would have been god. You'd have prayed, lived as a hermit, sequestered yourself to a cave and live as one of the great ascetic saints. A life even further dedicated than nunhood.
Since he had refused to answer you on the boat, you turn away, and whimper like an injured dog when that scarred face turns to a mask of stone.
"Ha!" Johnny doesn't pick up on the tension that's rising, slowly, as you tremble under Simons gaze. Or maybe he does, and he doesn't care. "Havnae seen his ugly mug yet, have ye? Dinnae worry, lamb."
Guilt curls in your belly, dampening your fear. Simon doesn't look shamed, but you weren't afraid of his scars - truly, you were disoriented, barely clothed and towered over by the same man that took you.
"He won't bite," Johnny continues. He walks over and lays a hand on Simons waist, fingers curling in the off-white fabric. "Well, not ye."
A wink.
"Hush!" Simon barks. "Get her up, she needs to eat."
There's no hesitation. Johnny leans down to you, pulling you until you sit up with a wince. You bite your lips to keep from crying out again, pain lancing through your muscles. You're seized by muscle spasms, by the fiery hot pain of your chafed wrists and a gnawing, deep hunger in your stomach.
"How-" you choke, throat dry and voice unused. Johnny pauses helping you up to listen. "How long have I been asleep?"
"Few days, lass. It's the evening," he grins. "Ye should thank us. Kept ye warm, washed, slipped ye broth into that lovely mouth-"
Simon puts a wooden bowl down onto the table, louder than necessary. There's a grumble from Johnny, but he gets you up and waits while your legs get used to weight on them again.
You're half-dragged, mostly carried to the table. All you're wearing is that shirt, nipples pebbled against the front from the cold. Hard to care too much when your muscles scream even holding yourself sitting up.
You lean on Johnny as Simon ladles soup into bowls, hunched over the kitchen hearth, silent as the grave.
"Eat slowly," is all he says.
It smells good, herby and warm. Your stomach groans and gurgles and begs you to eat, but you're weary. Afraid. Only when the men eat that you pick up a carved wooden spoon and hesitantly slurp.
Heat. Satisfaction. Eating is incredible, and you discover the wonderous ingredients loaded into the soap; salmon, potatoes, a green herb that tastes like sharp, citrussy grass.
Then your stomach cramps, and you tilt with nausea.
"Too fast?" Johnny coos, rubbing a big palm up and down your back. "Awe."
"That's enough, then," Simon goes to take your bowl, but you're too fast. You pull it close to your chest, spilling a little onto the table and drops soak into your shirt. "You can have some later. I said that's enough."
You hold fast. Your stomach hurts, but you're desperate for some form of control. All the terror and all the uncertainty rises, rushing through your finally conscious brain into a battle of strength. You took me but I have agency! it says. You took me but I can take this!
He's too strong.
The wood bowl clatters against the ground with a crack, hot soup spilling on the floor. You heave with the force of your breathing, afraid and too-aware of your predicament.
Taken, snatched, at the mercy of men whose intentions are unclear.
You're too slow to cower when Simon's arm shoots forward and grabs your jaw, hard and mean, giving you a squeeze.
"Now we've been nice to you," he starts. His voice is as solid as his arm. You start to shake. "But I can just as easily put you over my knee. That what you want?"
You shake your head.
"That's what I thought."
Johnny leaves after the soup is cleaned and you're tucked back into the bed again, muscles trembling still with the exertion of your first meal. Small, electric spasms make you wince every one in a while. Your wrists are bruised and scabbed, but healing. They feel hot and itchy, but Simon tells you as he rubs an ointment into the wound that they're healing well.
You try to shy away, hide yourself, when he notices your grimace and reaches for a calf. The look he gives you stops you, takes your breath, until he shakes his head and starts rubbing deep circles into the tenderest spot of your muscle.
"God!" you should. A wonder how badly you can hurt from just laying in bed. He snorts. "Ow!"
"Don't be dramatic," his thumb presses deeply, moving down, then back up. Squeezing. The bed dips with his weight as he scoots closer to you.
You take a moment to look around you. The cabin is made of wood, warmed by the fire, and is full to the brim. Clay pots, furs, tools, a couple barrels- they're everywhere, unorganized. Makes you wonder about the sacred items they'd stolen from your convent.
"Why did you take me?" someone bolder has possessed you. Your mouth twists when Simon's eyes find yours.
His hands don't stop moving. They switch legs, pulling the finished one onto his big thigh. It does feel better, relaxed and tender in a good sort of way, pain not so unbearable anymore.
"You're our spoils," he moves down, digging into your arch. You almost yelp. "D'you know what we gave up for you?"
Something in your chest squeezes, something scared and unpleasant. You open your mouth to speak, but nothing comes out.
"That's alright," Simon murmurs. Your anxiety fights against the comfort he's giving you. "You'll be alright."
He flits his gaze downwards, eyeing you. Your breath catches when you realize that the position has left your legs open, shirt ridden up, and he's looking right at your bare cunt.
"Ah!" you pull your knees shut, hands finding where you're exposed and folding over, cupping yourself, face ablaze. Tears prick at your eyes again, fear winning over comfort.
Simon doesn't let you panic for long.
"I won't force myself on you, pet," he grunts. "We won't."
There isn't much choice but to hang on to his words for dear life, to believe that he won't force you. The hope is fragile, but it's there. You take the chance to pull a soft, worn blanket over your body.
"Am I to be your slave?" your voice wavers.
"No," he says simply.
For a long time, you watch him. He putters about, moving things, unloading boxes no doubt full of supplies used for raids. You wonder if that means he doesn't intend to go on another one, then wonder what they'll do with you if they do leave.
Johnny comes back flushed, smiling. You smell sweetness under his sweat, something you can't recognize. His eyes crinkle when he sees you.
"Two nights," he breathes, looking at you but talking to Simon. "They'll celebrate in two nights."
Your stomach tenses, roiling, eyes fluttering with the effort to stay awake. Even a short time is much for you after your journey.
"Price's back?" Simon asks. He's pulling a sealskin from a burlap bag, smoothing it out with his hands onto the table. The silvery, spotted skin reflects the fireplace.
"Tomorrow," Johnny pulls leather boots off his feet, then thick socks. He wipes himself down with a rag from a tub, shuffling to the bed when he finishes. "Then we feast."
Your eyes are heavy slits, mouth open. You hardly move even when Johnny sits next to you and brushes a thumb over your cheek, smiling toothily down at you.
"Awe, she's precious," he says, lowering his voice. "Go to sleep now, little lamb."
You wake the same way as before. A tilt of one world into the next, sliding down into consciousness as slow as thick porridge.
Only this time, you're surrounded by a warmth not brought by thick furs. It's skin, all around you, boxing you in. On your face you feel hair, prickly and soft, comforting and frightening all at once.
Behind you, a chest breaths against your back. Your eyes open, alarm cutting through grogginess.
Johnnys big hand is clutching your breast, squeezing every few moments, snuffling into your neck like a sleepy animal.
You try to extricate yourself, lifting yourself to find Simon looking down at you, eyes half lidded but aware. There's warning there, but there's also contentment. Scars big and small litter his skin, pocked and torn and scraped, all shapes and sizes. Some are silvery while others are such a deep red you'd think they were still fresh.
He looks past you at Johnny, and turns to his side.
"Weren't planning on running, where you?" his voice is low, so as to not wake the other man.
"No," you whisper. Johnny shuffles behind you, sliding a thigh between your legs. "Please help me." you wiggle, trying to move.
Simon sighs, sitting up. He shuffles to the edge of the bed, then reaches to peel Johnnys hands off you. His hand slides against the soft spring of your breast, hands sliding under Johnnys to pull, brushing your nipple on the way up.
"Thank you," you're still whispering, not wanting to wake Johnny up lest it irritate Simon. You roll until you're out of his grasp, body feeling less pained than it did the day before.
"Hungry?" Simon moves towards the kitchen. "Got one more day to relax."
The feast, you think. The divide, the celebration. Frissons climb your skin until your scalp prickles.
"Yes, please," you sit up, weary of Johnny finding your heat in the bed.
The smell of animal fat and the sound of sizzling fills the cottage then. You look around, noting an improvement for the clutter. The sealskin is gone, replaced by two standing up boots.
"They're yours," Johnny says. You startle, almost leap, but he catches you by the hips and puts his face into your hair. "Simon stayed up all night."
"Gets cold," he dismisses. Eggs jump in the pan in front of him, popping in the hot tallow.
You have to be helped again to the table, but it's not so bad this time. You arm goes around Johnnys waist, his under yours, fingers barely brushing the underside of your breast.
Breakfast is good. Fried eggs, seasoned by the fat, over gruel. It fills you with an internal sense of strength, and you can actually finish it all today.
"Good girl!" Johnny claps your back. "Gonnae be choppin all our wood for winter, eh?"
After, Simon has you change into a simple brown wool dress. You try to ignore them looking at your nakedness as you drop the other shirt, but the wool is nice and warm and there's even a soft pale shift to go underneath it.
Then he slips pants on your legs, tied at the waist under the dress, and wraps wool around your calves.
"You're gonna run errands with me," Simon says. He wraps your feet again in wool, securing them with leather twine. "Get your strength up."
His eyes find yours where he's kneeling, squinting at you, expression turning stormy.
"I don't want to re-injure your wrists," he motions to them, and you look at the healing scabs. "But if you try to run, I'll drag you back by your hair n' tie 'em back up. You pick."
Outside, you wince against the light. Simon holds you by the elbow, walking at your weak pace. It's a tight village, houses clumped together, shops close. It's a wonder you haven't heard anyone from inside Johnny and Simons home, until you see how thickly the walls are built when the door opens.
The street is wet with mud, and you're grateful for the footwraps. They're warm against the chill, sliding through the mud beneath you when you lose your footing, legs feeling as new as a fawn.
"Here," Simon leads you to a market-like stall. Dried meats hang from the ceiling in bunches. The smell is pungent.
"Nik!" He shouts. A huge, burly man steps out.
They talk like they've known each other a long time, though not quite friends. An image of two great bears crosses your imagination, both big and still respecting the other. A rare alliance.
Simon hangs a bag off of you, a salty-smelling bag full of cured and fermented meats. The man looks down at you and grins as you leave, laughing lowly.
You bristle, but follow - what else is there to do?
The next stop is a real shop, only you can see a homestead behind a wooden counter.
It's a girl this time, lovely and soft. She smiles at Simon, wordlessly fetching another man from the homestead behind the store.
"Big man!" it's one of the raiders - the young one. Gaz. "And the nun." his brown eyes find yours, friendlier than the last time you saw him.
They talk, too, more amicably than the other man. Gaz folds his forearms over the counter and laughs, peeking at you every once in a while with intense eyes.
"Right," he claps his hands together. "I won't keep you."
You're starting to feel tired, overexerted.
Gaz comes back out with a wrapped package, the soft girl from before on his arm. The apples of her cheeks are high with a smile.
"See you!" she sits back down on her stool, wide hips wiggling until she's comfortable.
"See ya around," Gaz says. He winks at you.
Simon carries this package himself, not looking at you as he leads you further into the village.
People make way for him, not in fear, but because of his size. He's bigger than most, even some of the other men.
The third and final place has you panting, hunched with the effort of keeping yourself up.
It's a house not unlike Simon and Johnny's, just bigger. A wide, squat wooden house with a wide open door and goats bleating from a pen closeby.
Simon glances at you out of the corner of his eye, putting his hand on your lower back as somebody steps out of the doorway.
"Hello again, Simon," it's Price. The leader, or perhaps the chief. It would make sense - his authority, his size, the number of scars on his skin. Nearly as many as Simon. "You bring your end of the bargain?"
Straight to the point then. Price doesn't look at you once, which doesn't do much to assuage the fear that you're the end of the bargain.
"If you've got yours," Simon leaves you behind to follow him inside, where you can hear them talking. Jovial, like old friends.
By the time you get back home, you're wiped. Exhaustion pulls at you like invisible strings dragging you to the bed. Even Johnny with his smarmy expression and his patting the mattress doesn't stop you from crashing.
The men have brought you to a celebration. After letting you sleep a majority of the day after your errands, Simon dressed you in the same wool dress and wrapped a thick cape around your shoulders to ward off the chill.
It's a welcome home. Simon had been the first to see Price at his home - he and a band of fledgling warriors had sailed right past the village and gone hunting.
Price is not the chief, as you had assumed. He is a leader, an explorer, the ambitious spearhead of overseas raids. Nodding heads and a sense of respect, of deference, follows him wherever he goes. Even as an outsider you can see it.
The chief is a woman. It's not something you expected, not with the sheer size of the men around you, not with the brutality in which they regale their exploits. Many of them have wives that trail them, welcome them, carry their children on their hips, or are welcomed as fellow warriors.
These are the fledglings?
You're in a wild, barbaric place.
When you reach the longhouse, a building as short as all the others but stretched much farther and lit orange with light and the smell of honey, you're bathed in warmth.
No, not honey. Alcohol, sweet and cloying on the breath of each viking. Their depravity seems to know no bounds. It's the same sweet smell you'd smelled on Johnny that night he'd left - presumably to speak to the chief.
Laswell, they call her. The chief. She stands on a raised dais with Price, murmuring between themselves, nodding toward Simon and Johnny when they take their seats.
"Right here," Simon spreads his thighs. There are no other spaces on the bench.
"I don't mind standing," you try. He pinches the back of your knee until you buckle into him, tucked into the cradle of his arms. Your heart pounds in your chest.
"Not lettin' ye sit apart from us," Johnny brushes your cheek, and you look past him to the rest of the people gathered.
Decorated, scarred, hardened warriors. Price joins the group, taking a heavy seat by the man from before - Nik - and exchanging claps on the back. Gaz, a woman with dark hair, but Gaz's soft girl is nowhere to be found.
"Welcome!" Laswell shouts. The hall goes silent. "Drink, eat - celebrate a job well done by our boys."
Eruption; noise all around. She's a carefully controlled, steady woman, yet she's inspired this group of a few hundred into the loudest cacophony you've ever heard.
Simon cups his hands over your ears. You try not to be grateful.
Debauchery. You witness debauchery- drinking beyond your most twisted imagination, dancing surely enough to summon a demon, maybe the devil himself. It's enough to make you pray under your breath, turning away from public displays of affection.
Above you, in front of you, conversation. It doesn't slip your mind how high up on the table Simon and Johnny are, right across from Price and Gaz and next to Laswell at the head of the table.
Even she laughs, imbibes, discusses the distribution of goods with a content sort of smile.
"And the nun?" eyes turn to you. Laswell has focused her gaze on you, sharper than before. "You're satisfied with just her?"
Johnny takes a long pull of his mead, before pressing his shoulder to Simons.
"Thas'right!" he only slurs a little. "Found ourselves a proper little wife, we did."
A chill moves through you. A slow freezing. You tense in Simons lap, spine rigid, heart flipping in your chest. Carefully, you try not to show a reaction.
Wife?
"Och! Sorry, lamb," he turns to you and takes your hands. "Didnae mean to ruin the surprise."
"Quite the surprise," Gaz chirps. His girl has found him, and he's made a place for her beside him. You're jealous of her autonomy, especially now. Taken as prisoner, as spoils, and now?
"You promised," you mumble. "You said you wouldn't."
"What's that, love?" Gaz again, but you aren't listening. Blood rushes through your ears.
"You said you wouldn't force me," you look up now, at Simon and his deeply scarred face. He betrays nothing. "Why lie?"
"Didn't lie," he grunts. "Now be quiet."
"When's that, then?" Price asks.
"Before winter."
The walk back is silent except for the wet slaps of your feet against the mud. The chill is worse at night, biting at your nose and your fingers. At least your future husband - husbands - don't want you to freeze.
The thought hits you like a boulder, heavy and immovable. You stop walking, drawing the attention of the observant men.
"Too tired?" Johnny asks.
You run.
Or try to, as fast as you can.
It's hard in this terrain, slippery and with the cold burning your cheeks. You have no direction in mind, only obeying the mindless terror coursing through your blood, unleashed by this night of truths.
Simon is the one to catch up to you not ten feet from where you started, grabbing the back of your cape and pulling hard until you fall on your butt.
It hurts, the ground has slowly been freezing with the onset of fall and Simon is not nice as he captures you back.
"Ow," you sniffle, fingers wet and muddy.
"Yeah I bet that hurt," his voice has gone hard. "Where did you think you were going?" a laugh, harsh and grating.
"Didnae mean to scare ye," Johnny says. He helps Simon in dragging you back to to cottage.
"In!" Simon barks when you reach the door. You plant your feet, frustrated tears prickling hot and then falling down your cheeks in heavy droplets. "Stupid girl- get inside."
The insult adds salt to the wound as you stumble onto your hands and knees. Pain lances up your wrists.
"Did'ya think you'd be able to what, survive by yourself?" he scoffs. Johnny helps, but mostly just acts as if you're a doll, in removing your cape and sodden woolen dress.
The shift is wet, too. Less muddy than the dress, but still wet. Johnny slips it over your head and you cross your arms to hide your nakedness, still crying.
"Hey," Simon crouches. He puts his face close to yours, noses touching, eyes deadly. "I didn't lie. We won't force you, you'll come to us."
"You'll go to hell," you're upset now, but it only serves to make them shake their heads and laugh breathily, silently. "You stole me."
"Aye, we did," you're wiped dry by big hands. "And you'll be our wife."
Another slip goes over your head, thin and rough on your skin, well-worn.
"Get in bed."
Johnny listens and brings you with him, wiping the tears from your face as he lays you down. You're as helpless as a lamb.
"If I have any choice," you start. "I won't be your wife, and I won't-"
"Wheesht!" Johnny pulls you to him, hand over your mouth, making room for Simon. His other hand goes over your stomach, squeezing. Warmth surrounds you. "You're overexcited, ye need some rest."
God help you, you're so tired you do.

Charles pining….. Charles yearning…..
It would be so obvious to everyone in camp BUT you omg…
Let me tell you this man is ACTS OF SERVICE !!! While out for groceries he would maybe pick up a few chocolates for you, maybe pick up some flowers and leave them for you on your bedroll!!!!
Maybe beside one of his little sculptures of wood that he carved himself. He’s always loved whittling, and you can’t help but know it’s him, who else would be as kind ?
Oh youre sick ? Here, drink this, a herbal tea that’ll cure you right up! And just like magic it’s gone. You ask him where he learned the recipe, and he just says that he’s got a lil touch of magic.
You don’t know how to hunt ? You do now ! You two feet away from a deer, crouched side by side, his hand holding yours, guiding it exactly where to go and what to do. Lingering just a moment longer than he should, wanting, needing your touch.
But I love love LOOOVE Charles so much he’s my favorite #1 <3
Pls tag or send me any and all Charles fics/ hcs PLSSSSSS PUH LEASE PLS PLS PLS

thought about the domination line that plays when engie kills another engie, which is "you shoulda oughta brought more gun, son." something about red engie being a cocky son of a bitch versus blu engie humoring him because he's the only one who knows the truth about red. y'know
#blu engie#i hate him so much#i think hed patronize red to no end#red is LITERALLY beneath him#he is a clone made simply for the fact that red team would've unfairly been down a person#hes filler. hes a coverup#my post

Hello, lovely followers! I know there is lots of fandom goodness to talk about right now (especially with us being on the eve of the BAFTAs), but I had to share some personal news: I went to a gala myself last night, where I received an award! These are just a few pictures that I wanted to share from the occasion, and to let you know why I'm still working on my response to your Asks (which I will have done soon!). ❤️❤️
#personal post#autism#autism sexuality advocate#public speaker#award#award gala#redhead#red dress#there's a general 'red' theme#this was also a comically ridiculous night#because i won one of the raffle grand prizes which was an expensive gift certificate for Botox/fillers#and i gave it back because Botox scares me#lolz#good times

as yr favorite local jason todd fan sometimes i get so fed up with the apparent inability of most dc comic writers to write a class conscious narrative about him.
and yes, i know that comics are a very ephemeral and constantly evolving and self-conflicting medium.
and yes, i know they’re a profit-driven art medium created in a capitalistic society, so there are very few times where comics are going to be created solely out of the desire to authentically and carefully and deliberately represent a character and take them from one emotional narrative place to another, because dc cares about profit and sometimes playing it safe is what sells.
and yes, i know comics and other forms of art reflect and recreate the society within which they were conceived as ideas, and so the dominant societal ideas about gender and race and class and so on are going to be recreated within comics (and/or will be responded to, if the writer is particularly societally conscious).
but jesus christ. you (the writer/writers) have a working class character who has been homeless, who has lost multiple parents, who has been in close proximity to someone struggling with addiction, who has had to steal to survive, who may have (depending on your reading of several different moments across different comics created by different people) been a victim of csa, who has clearly (subtextually) struggled with his mental health, who was a victim of a violent murder, and who has an entirely distinct and unique perspective on justice that has evolved based on his lived experiences.
and instead of delving into any of that, or examining the myriad of ways that classism in the writers’ room and the editors’ room and the readers’ heads affected jason’s character to make sure you’re writing him responsibly, or giving him a plotline where his views on what justice looks like are challenged by another working class character, or allowing him to demonstrate actual autonomy and agency in deciding what relationships he wants to have with people who he loves but sees as having failed him in different ways, or thinking carefully about what his having chosen an alias that once belonged to his murderer says about his decision-making and motivations, you keep him stuck in a loop of going by the red hood, addressing crime by occupying a position of relative power that perpetuates crime & harm rather than ever getting at the root causes, and seesawing between a) agreeing with his adoptive family entirely about fighting nonlethally in ways that are often inconsistent with his apparent motivations or b) disagreeing and experiencing unnecessarily brutal and violent reactions from his adoptive father as if that kind of violence isn’t the kind of thing he experienced as a child and something bruce himself is trying to prevent jason from perpetuating. because a comic with red hood, quips, high stakes, and familial drama sells.
it doesn’t matter if it keeps jason trapped, torn between an unanswered moral and philosophical question, a collection of identities that no longer fit him, and a family that accepts him circumstantially. it doesn’t matter if jason’s characterization is so utterly inconsistent that the only way to mesh it together is to piece different aspects of different titles and plotlines together like a jigsaw. it doesn’t matter if you do a disservice to his character, because in the end you don’t want to transform him or even understand him deeply enough to identify what makes him compelling and focus on that.
and i love jason!!!!! i love him. and i think about the stories we could have, if quality and art and doing justice to the character were prioritized as much as selling a title and having a dark and brooding batfam member besides bruce just to be the black sheep character are prioritized. and i just get a little sad.
#jason todd#jason todd meta#red hood#batfam#batman#dc comics#comic analysis#classism#tw: csa mention#maybe someday half of the most intriguing and nuanced aspects of his character will be touched upon#red hood outlaw 51-52 had some cool moments wrt jason + class + hometown friends + systems of power but. that was a two issue arc#and even then it was admittedly messy#GOD i want him to be three dimensional and well rounded and well used#even if a writer wrote a fucking. filler comic for an annual or smthn exploring what jason does outside of being red hood#keep the name if u want. have him have deliberately taken the name of his killer and twisted it until ppl from his city know rh#as a protector of kids and the poor and sex workers and so on. that WORKS. but show him connecting w his community#have him get involved in mutual aid. have him do something when he’s not out as red hood at night. let us see jason & barbara interact more#or jason and steph !!!!!!!! or another positive but complicated dynamic (he has a lot of those)#i just. i think that his stagnancy makes me fucking sad. i liked some aspects of task force z. felt like it ended too soon tho#FUCK the joker lets unpack his self concept & have him be a real person outside of vigilanteism (?) and vengeance#i liked some aspects of the cheer arc in batman urban legends mostly bc he had SOME agency and bc he wasn’t completely flat#even tho i hate the retconning of robin jason being angry and moody and so on#part of the problem is we don’t see him too too often for more than semi brief appearances so im so happy to see him i’ll just accept it#love the idea of a nightwing & red hood team up comic. hate that tom taylor a) wrote it and b) gave jason that stupid ass line abt justice#u think this man trusts cops ????? or the legal system !????????? BITCH.#get jason todd into like a sociology / gender and intersectionality / feminist studies class NOWWWWW#ok im done im sleepy and going to watch nimona. thx for reading to anyone who did#PLS anyone who reads this let me know what u think im frothing at the mouth rn#wes.txt#mine

#one piece#ambiguous size of bepos head strikes again#its fine look how cute he looks baby boy#always together#stampede movie was sick cuz hancock made it but if only it could have bepo itd be perfect then#you can separate them or smth. temporarily that is.#but i want them fighting side by side in filler bullshit#they deserve it#if stampede didnt have bepo but red did and he was great in it we are going in an upwards trajectory#next movie you will have law as ur fanservice man of sex - have his husband there too

I have a problem with my writing where if I don’t know what to say for too long i immediately default to making the character an asshole so let it be known that Ohio is my sweet girl and she is a dork and has much love in her for her friends and da world around her she might hust be having a bad day
#the triplets r gen hard for me to write for this reason.i can’t throw insults for filler now what#rvb#red vs blue#doodles#triplets rvb#the triplets rvb#ohio rvb#rvb ohio#agent ohio#iowa rvb#rvb iowa#agent iowa#rvb idaho#idaho rvb#agent idaho

so after literal years i'm back to watching one piece (don't ask me what possessed me, i wouldn't be able to tell you. actually i am able, it was shuggy content)
i'm at episode 4 and the fact that shanks left out the fucking devil fruit in an open chest, just right there on the counter, IN GRABBING DISTANCE OF A CHILD???? red haired shanks you're such a dumbass i love you. never babysit anyone ever
#i genuinely forgot this was how luffy ate the fruit i thought he was sneaking around and found it accidentally but NOPE#red hair pirates just LEFT IT THERE IN THE OPEN???#shanks was never responsible for such a young child ever before and that amateur babysitter mistake is proof of that#(dont tell me about film red)#one piece#op#akagami no shanks#red haired shanks#shanks#on my first watch i got to skypeia arc i think?? but i did some skipping around bc i didnt want to watch that much filler#anyways for some reason i have been looking at art and reading shuggy fics. those old men have me in a chokehold#mannnnn i forgot how much i love these characters actually#romance dawn trio my beloveds#coby is such lil sweetie#every side character is just overflowing with personality its amazing#buggy appears as early as episode 4?? damn i forgot so much about this anime#sunbloom's anime rambles#sunbloom talks#anime
