For your song ficlet prompts... 3, and your choice of character because my brain has misfiled your OCs. (it'd misfile my own and often has!)

Prompt #3 "So close so far miles away right past what I know rainbows of stars how could I ever be afraid" (Stars In The Rain) from this prompt list info on Berrie here

"Relax and breathe, Berribelle," Eobard said, placing a comforting hand on his daughter's shoulder. "Focus. Feel the lightning. Feel its power, its electricity pumping through your veins. Crackling through you, traveling to every nerve in your body like a shock."

Berrie took a shaky breath and nodded, pigtails bouncing as she shifted nervously from one foot to the other. "That's the Speed Force?"

"That's the Speed Force," Eobard confirmed. "You know how to access it, you've used it before. Now, focus on it with intention. You can do this. Run, Berrie. Run."

Berrie closed her eyes and steeled herself for disaster before taking off in an orange streak. Eobard smiled and nodded his approval, allowing himself a moment to feel pride in Berrie's accomplishment.

The moment Berrie had started to run, she forgot why she'd been nervous in the first place. The Speed Force was like a warm hug; comforting and familiar even if she'd never actively tried to use it before now. Running just felt right and with each step she took she found herself trying to go faster and faster. The world blurred and turned into a brilliant kaleidoscope of colors and lights around her as she ran and she couldn't help but feel a sense of awe at the beauty. She was so distracted that if her father hadn't been paying attention she probably would have run directly into him at her absurdly fast speed.

"Well done," Eobard praised, steadying her as she skidded to a stop.

"Did you see, Dad, did you see me? I went so fast!" Berrie asked, wide-eyed and buzzing with excitement, her hair now a wind-swept mess.

"I did," Eobard said, ruffling her hair fondly. "It won't be long now until you've mastered control over your speed, I'm sure."

"Really?" Berrie asked, her face lighting up.

"Really," Eobard affirmed and Berrie threw her arms around his midsection in a tight hug.

"I love you, Dad."

do you ever like someone’s ocs so much it makes you sick

[vexic929]

I only saw, like, a couple episodes of Arrow... Please tell me what it is about that specific 'verse that has you hooked? (Genuine ask, permission to gush and rant granted.)

lol okay this will probably be long so rant after the cut :)

so my first foray into the Arrowverse was actually Titans which I feel like is more Arrowverse-adjacent since there's like no crossovers with that show. I started watching because I'd just rewatched 2003's Teen Titans and wanted more content about my beloved blorbos, particularly Dick Grayson, and boy was I impressed! I finished the first two seasons within like a couple weeks I think? which is big for me cause I'm really slow at going through shows lol and then while I waited for season 3 to come out I decided I'd watch Supergirl and I also immediately loved that show though it's significantly lighter than Titans, Kara is absolutely lovely as a character and I really enjoy Melissa Benoit's portrayal of her. also Alex??? I feel her in my soul, she's basically me if I was a cis lesbian lol

fell in love with Barry in the crossover episodes (he's so adorable and genuine how could I not???) so my next show was The Flash and omg season 1 was just great can't get enough it introduces almost all my favorite characters and it's just so fun!

overall the characters in all the shows are super endearing, the plotlines while sometimes a little shaky are usually at the very least fun and suspenseful, and I'm always a sucker for watching heroes learn how to balance being a hero and normal everyday life

I still have yet to see Arrow, Stargirl, Batwoman, or Doom Patrol; considering I hate the actor for Ollie I dunno if I ever will actually watch Arrow but I do like Felicity so it's up in the air lol my advice for anyone wanting to watch Arrowverse shows: pretend they all end after season 4. seriously, every Arrowverse show I've seen sucks after season 4 and it's so disappointing lol

Otp questions

What are their parenting styles?

Janine x Egon

@bixiebeet @spengnitzed @professorlehnsherr-almashy @inevitablemoment @janeb984 @slimerspengler @hawthorne-spengler-stantz @oreopata

Very based on honesty: when their child has questions, they answer it with the truth, in a matter of fact way. If neither of them know the answer at that moment, they make sure to research to answer the question later.

While nurturing and responsable, Janine still favours giving more freedom, space and authonomy for the child to learn with their trials and mistakes, while Egon is more overprotective and favours setting rules and keeping a watchfull eye.

Janine is more playfull, specially when their child is a baby, while Egon talks to them in a more formal and serious vocabulary to help in their cognitive development.

Hey friends so uh. apparently the "decorate my tree" site is possibly a fraud/scam thing? not confirmed but I'm definitely not going to risk it.

If y'all left me messages and still want me to see them, please send them to me as an ask or private message since I will not be opening any emails or the "deco my tree" site itself

(tagging the people who left me messages so they see this: @can-of-pringles @nebulousfishgills @hawthorne-spengler-stantz @vexic929 @negative-speedforce @sashathedoge @thegentlemanstar @lighttupthiswholetown and @simplysummers I think?)

From @hawthorne-spengler-stantz's tag for me on this post

Pick your characters and give them a book filled with every thought anyone ever had about them. What would they read first? The positive or the negative ones? The thoughts of people they actually know or a stranger’s thought?

Rae: Refuses to even open the book. For one thing, she wouldn't want people to read the thoughts she's had about them, that feels vaguely like an invasion of her mind, so she'd want to extend the same courtesy. And for another, she doesn't want her mind to get stuck on what other people think.

Robin: Comes up with a few set rules for herself before opening the book. She will not look at thoughts from friends or family, only strangers - she doesn't want it to affect any of her close relationships, no matter how curious she may be.

Madison: Goes on a seek-and-destroy mission for her parents' thoughts. She can't help the curiosity, she needs to know what they think of her after what happened with Johnny, and if they'll ever forgive her.

Ophelia: The book is mostly entertainment for her - she'll flip through the thoughts of strangers who have seen her as Argonaut, most of them are like reading crappy Yelp reviews and she finds it funny. Sometimes, if she has a really bad day, she'll flip through her mother's of Harry's thoughts for a while to ward off the grief.

Jasper: Doesn't bother looking at the book. They can sense others' emotions, so they already have a general sense of what people think of them, and they really don't need the specifics. They only ever (ever) look at one small section of the book - Kyle's thoughts when he was first brought back, when he was still struggling to communicate. They knew there was a lot he wanted to say to them... so why not see what it was that he wanted to say?

Quinn: Reads through the whole book, she doesn't care what people think of her. Some of Lex's old thoughts hurt (she didn't know how jealous and vengeful Lex really was, or how long she'd been planning for what happened in Kyiv), but they're made up by learning how early Billy's feelings for her started - about the same time she started developing feelings for him, actually. And she gets a kick out of the strangers' thoughts, though she later ends up going in with a permanent marker and redacting the worst of the transphobic ones.

Kestrel: Originally considers reading the book, hoping it would help them convince their mind that they made an impact on the world and people around them (something they struggle with). But then they realize that could very quickly lead to a rabbithole of obsession on other people's thoughts, so it's safest not to touch it. They even go so far as to bury it in the backyard - they really, really don't want that temptation.

Katherine: Ahk's section is, quite literally, half the book. He spends a lot of time thinking about her, especially when he's sitting through the daylight hours each day. Katherine reads the first page... then pauses and sets herself a stopping point. It's not fair to him that she read everything, that's a bit invasive, so she only reads up to the moment she learned the secret of the museum. That felt... maybe not fully fair, but at least a somewhat-justified stopping point - she said all her thoughts to him when she visited, not knowing he was listening, so it's not awfully unfair to read that section of his thoughts in return. She also flips through the thoughts of her old bullies, too curious for her own good, and found that a lot of their taunting just came from a mountain of insecurity.

Eris: Their book is massive from how long they've been alive, but most people in it only get a line or two since Eris rarely makes longer connections. He can't help but look through Rick's section, though. It's the only one that takes up any significant amount of pages itself, and Eris is stunned to learn how deeply he really cares about them.

Nikoletta: Flips through the thoughts of everyone at Belle Reve, and uses it as a guide to managing her status and knowing who's really loyal to her. Most of the thoughts are neutral at best, while some people are outright imagining what they'd do to her if they had the chance... those thoughts do frighten her, a bit. By the time she gets to Abner's section, she's surprised at how soft it is compared to the rest. He's about the only person who hasn't plotted her demise, even offhandedly - hell, even Adrian (her right-hand man) has wondered briefly about whether he could be the King of Belle Reve if he took care of the Queen. Thankfully that thought didn't stick.
