Clark: why are you like this
Bruce, three seconds away from dropping a glass of champagne on the floor, dramatically slipping in the pieces, and falling into the lap of the senator theyāre trying to get information out of in a bizarre, sleep-deprived, but likely wildly successful seduction attempt: can you just let me have this please

have you seen the new nightwear groovy? alas, the dream of the animal onesies or the pillow fight groovy are dashed š - i have yet to see the card's story but i assume that yuu is interviewing the boys again this year like the birthday boy cards cause there's no other characters in the card (?)
I too am disappointed that we didn't get a big full-on pillow fight. š but he DOES battle by throwing his pillow, so at least we get some cushion action in there!
it looks like this round of birthday cards aren't going to be interviews/conversations, at least not for most of it -- the first part was Jamil talking to Ortho (who he duos with) about what his dormmates are doing for his birthday (they're setting up a surprise party/parade (because Kalim) but they're doing an extremely bad job of it and he's having to go around making sure that they don't screw it up) (being Jamil is suffering). second part was Jamil talking to his (unvoiced mob) roommate and answering Crowley's School Improvement Survey (he wants bigger bathrooms) (also a fridge in his room) (actually, make that a whole kitchen) (but mostly bigger bathrooms). then third part was his ~morning routine~, aka talking to himself about his hair and makeup, as one does in a visual novel. it's less cohesive than the previous birthday stories, but it's all pretty chill and there's some fun stuff in there! (Najma sent him hair stuff for his birthday that's way too fancy and he can't decide if she did it to annoy him or not. truly, being Jamil is indeed suffering.)
if all the cards are going to be about nightly/morning routine though, we're going to absolutely melt when we get to Vil, brace yourselves
#joseimuke games are serious business#twisted wonderland spoilers#kutsurogi my room#they're all wearing animal onesies in my heart#is this not the most twst thing though#this is the kind of game where every character has absolutely immaculate hair and makeup at all times and they WILL tell you about it#damn if it isn't working for them though. everyone's hair is SO glossy#unfortunately jamil suffers from being one of the few relatively normal people at nrc#(if you discount the whole 'turned into a monster and tried to take over the school and possibly murder some kids' incident)#(and...no he's still one of the less weird students)#so it's just kind of a chill time watching a guy wear some headbands and talk about waterproof eyeliner#meanwhile i desperately need to know how idia washes his hair#i need to know how long sebek spends saluting his malleus portrait each night#does ortho have a makeup routine. does he need to worry about oil-based cosmetics staining whatever he's made of.#will crowley actually look at the school improvement surveys or are they going straight into the shredder#these are the burning questions i need answers for

The GIW have found out about Danny being half ghost. However, due to the dangers of getting caught Danny has a plan.
Danny some time beforehand manages to successfully figure out how to duplicate himself. Each one is just as strong as the others and the last duplicate remaining becomes the real Danny. Any duplicate the disappears will have all its memories return to the other copies.
The plan is simple: the Dannys all split up and set themselves up in different parts of the world, far away from one another. Should one get caught, it will simply vanish before the GIW can do any serious and traumatizing damage. Plus, Danny won't have to try and build another life for himself should he need to abandon one.
However, what Danny didn't consider is the fact that the copies don't have any kind of mental connection aside from when their memories are redistributed. They also don't keep in contact, as that would defeat the purpose of having them split up.
When the various superheroes around the globe find a child with incredible power who is all alone, they tend to try to help them. And since Danny doesn't want the GIW to find him, he tends to pick a different hero name than Phantom.
Needless to say, its a very interesting meeting at the Watchtower when they belatedly discover that several new heroes that had were being mentored by several heroes were all the same person.
#dp x dc#dpxdc#dc x dp#dp x dc prompt#duplication#Danny has been adopted by all the heroes#He just doesn't realize it#It's the spiderman meme times twenty or something during that meeting#Danny was very closed off about his past for various reasons#So no one knew about the duplication thing#The meeting was probably about the Anti-Ecto Acts#All the Dannys picked different names based on who they were with#Danny is going to have one serious headache if or when they he fuses back together#This is going to be one big custody battle#Did everyone go with just heroes or is there a Danny or two with villains?

The interpretation of Rise Raph as a 'perfect responsible soft boy uwu' is so BORING I'm sorry, Raph is a rowdy adrenaline junkie with anxiety and I won't take this slander any longer
Raph secretly kept an enemy soldier in their actual literal house as a sparring partner. Raph glued his brothers together and dragged them out to fight crime. Raph once asked Leo to punch him in the face to prove he 'takes damage like a boss.' Raph tried to lift a school bus, twice. Raph offered to help his favorite wrestler beat his little brother up. When Leo suggests evacuating Bullhop, Raph says no bc the best defense is a good offense babey. Raph's idea of a 'friendly chat' with April's upstairs neighbor is to put on a black ski mask and go stand menacingly at their door. It takes Raph 10 episodes to conclude that they should MAYBE start training. Raph's plan to get a potentially priceless (and potentially FRAGILE) museum artifact is to punch a car in the middle of a busy street and also cut it in half with his brother still inside.
Raph's never met a problem he wouldn't try to punch in the face and does not know the meaning of the words 'excessive force.' He roughhouses with his bros and drags them out to fight villains and thinks any plan that doesn't involve an all-out brawl is boring and lame. He'll do anything to protect his family from harm and be a hero, but also he eats wet salami off the floor and once single-handedly destroyed a library.
I just adore how, at his core, Rise Raph is such a classic Raphāimpulsive and stubborn and caring and passionate. He is a very sweet, strong, honorable guy who has a very powerful sense of personal responsibility... and he is also the exact kind of jock who throws you in the pool at a party without checking if you have your phone in your pocket first.
#rottmnt#rottmnt raph#raph#don't worry then he'll freak out and buy you a new one#anyway! raph rules!!!!!#and i think the movie has made some people interpret him as like the 'responsible mom' character which is a bummer#bc that's really not him at all#like this is not even NEARLY a complete list of raph's shenanigans#he's a hooligan a fool a dumbass (affectionate)#he loves big flashy exciting fights and does not spare a single thought to stealth 90% of the time#he gets distracted on missions taking selfies with pizza pigeons and wrestlers#and gets annoyed in eps like Bug Busters when leo suggests being more cautious#he would die for his brothers but also he's definitely the type to like. walk into their rooms and sit on them for fun#he values responsibility so much but also makes the most batshit decisions ever#and has probably caused the state of new york thousands of dollars in damages#and he's NOT the boys' dad jesus christ#he grows slightly more serious over the course of the series (out of stress :(()#but at his core he's just a kid who loves fighting and being a hero#and i love him so much ok!!!!!!

"After theĀ defeatĀ ofĀ SidorakĀ and theĀ VisorakĀ hordes, Dume chose to stay on Metru Nui rather than join the Matoran onĀ Mata Nui.Ā He began rebuilding the city using his KanohiĀ Kiril."
It always struck me as kind of funny to imagine Turaga Dume wandering around an abandoned and decrepit Metru Nui like WALL-E, slowly repairing the city bit by bit. Particularly because the noble Kiril isn't as effective as the great version, and given the Matoran had to help reuild when they got back, I imagine he didn't get all that far even in 1000 years (in his defence it is an entire city).
But yeah, Dume by himself on Metru Nui with the Rahaga and Keetongu is such a weird thing. Being stuck in an abandoned city with 6 half-animal old people and a giant orange animal thing for 1000 years and having nothing better to do than tidy things up a bit. I like to think he did a bit of soul-searching in that time.
#bionicle#I like the hard-hearted but well-meaning Dume headcanons people have#which are pretty well supported by the story#but it's nice to think he might change and soften a bit#he doesn't really show he has changed in the books though#but it was a pretty serious situation and he isn't that prominent a character#so I feel there's room for him to be a little better after all that time#but also the idea he didn't learn anything after 1000 years alone to reflect would be quite poignant#if a little sad

Bless that trophy wife anon because theyāre right. Thereās no way mindscape citizens see whatever dipper does in the real world as a real career and he has no job in billās realm either, whether he likes it or not heās entwined with billās world and his people and he canāt blame them for thinking his job is being billās husband.
Thatās what pisses him off, the fact that theyāre right.
No matter how Dipper protests that yes, he DOES have a job, the beings in the Fearamid don't believe it's 'real', or worse - humor him, then give Knowing Looks to the other demons in the room.
Meanwhile, Bill knows it's real - but sometimes he plays along like it isn't just to piss Dipper off.
#answers#Oh of COURSE it's great that you're keeping busy sweetie!!#I'm sure this..... 'hero' thing is pretty. Um. Interesting!!#All the while clearly Not Getting It in the same way tech-illiterate grandparents don't believe the Internet has Careers#Demons give negative shits about human life on average#When said lives are basically a point on a scorecard devoting your own to Improving them is very much an eyebrow raising 'job' choice#Dipper might as well be talking about his own personal MMO for all that they care about the 'points' he's scored or any of the 'characters'#Bill's smarter and gets that it's a serious gig - but he's also a very infuriating spouse at times#It's a good thing he has other qualities or he'd be intolerable#Some would even say he is even WITH his supposed 'positive' traits!#Sadly Dipper has very bad taste in men and loves the hell out of him anyway#Also the demons *do* have a point#Technically Bill's bankrolling all the magic you're using in your career Dipper#Even if it IS a real job you're still a bit of a sugar baby#Watch Dipper throw a fit and go no-magic for a time just to Prove Them Wrong#This in turn upsets Bill who's not thrilled about all the close calls to his husband's life#If Dipper weren't so stupid CLEVER about it he'd be furious!!#Now Bill's all conflicted with 'stupid not to use all the advantages and NEARLY DYING' and 'ah crap that was smart as hell and SUPER hot'#Overall leaving him very >:(

i feel that so many people seem to take the basis of naruto and sasukes characterization and switch themā¦. i see too many people infer naruto is made of happiness and love while sasuke of hate and anger but i have always seen naruto as a character that is full of hatred and anger and he has to let go of that with the love of others. sasuke as a character is so full of love yet he has to follow that through with grief and anger and learn to bear others hatred.
naruto never really had the heaviness of love in his heart until he went through the process of controlling kuramas chakra and had to confront the hatred inside him. frankly it says it blatantly that he had always held hatred in his heart for the situation he was forced into and the way the village treated him because of it, until he was able to accept and move past that hatred and have love for kurama and his dad and the people of his village. so i genuinely donāt understand where this notion that naruto is just pure sunshine and happiness came from. sasukes whole story starts out with wanting revenge on his brother because he loves his family and his clan so much. itās a constant clear notion that he hurts so bad from his brotherās betrayal because he loved his brother, and that his rage against konoha is because he loved his clan that konoha sanctioned a genocide of. itās constantly stated that the uchiha hold intense love in their hearts.
itās sasukes connection with the people around him that formed his love where itās the lack of that connection that formed narutos hateā¦. the way they expressed their emotions is very different because theyāre both in insanely different scenarios no matter how much they understand the others pain. narutos hatred makes him want to finally receive the love that the village never gave him, but sasukes love makes him want the village to experience the pain that they inflicted upon him and his clanā¦ maybe sasuke expresses his love more negatively and maybe naruto expresses his hate more positively, but that doesnāt change the fact that sasukes actions came from a place of love and narutos actions came from hate. they just needed each other to balance the other outā¦.
#this has certainly been said before in much better ways but#iāve just seen a bunch of naruto=happy go lucky loverboy and sasuke=gloomy sad hater recently and#its so frustrating to see naruto portrayed as some sunshine boy all the time bc#like i get that naruto is sun coded and sasuke is moon coded but#that rlly doesnāt mean naruto is just some great amazing happy go lucky guy all the time#naruto has some serious attitude towards people for no reason šš he literally starts beef with people for no reasonnnn#naruto#meta#jitter bugs u

Art Wip Game
@artisticallyill you asked about the Battle Cody & Obi so here it is
This one is definitely a bad name. While technically accurate, it's not the defining thing about this. Battle Cody & Obi is the name of my drawing that is my Codywan FMAB AU. Truly the title says nothing, and idk what i was thinking when i named the drawing but it's my fmab au
Here's it is so far:
In this au, the jedi are the state alchemists, Obi-Wan is a general and a state alchemist and a highly revered one but I don't know what his alchemy specialization is yet. Cody is his right hand who watches his back and has several big guns and people are scared of him.
I imagine this drawing to be them fighting Maul, who would absolutely just set a bunch of things on fire, not even with alchemy but with straight up matches cuz he's petty like that and Cody and Obi-Wan are trapped by the fire and waiting to see where he strikes next.
When I was ideating this, I realized that their dynamic is already pretty similar to Mustang and Hawkeye, especially with the "we can't date cuz you're my superior officer/subordinate" and the "i will flirt with others as a tactical move but it's fake and the real adoration only comes out with you"
Find wip game post here
#tag game#my wips#obi wan kenobi#commander cody#codywan#codywan fmab au#i have so many thoughts#i also imagine that one scene where roys abouta smush envy and hawkeye stops him#cuz i want a falling obi beign held at gunpoint by his commander because cody will not let him fall#cody makes him a better jedi okay?#obiwan might start to fall and codys there#theyre a team and they work well together#cody the ever serious one and obi putting on some false bravado to go by unnoticed because people underestimate him#its perfect#i think about it all the time#obi wan loses his state alchemist watch all the freaking time#cody always has it#and he clips it to his person so it comes to a point where people think hes the state alchemist#and they dont know what theyre fighting for or who#fives is hughes too smart for his own good#there are a lot of high ranking separatists and sith but i havent assigned them to a deadly sin yet#something to think about when i go to sleep tonight#fanart#digital art#star wars#my art#my wip art#fmab au#star wars fanart#wip

FUCK THEM UPPPPPPP TILL OH MY GODDDDDDDDDDD
The visuals of Till's splash art (in my humble opinion, the best one so far) is STUNNING. AND very interesting.
For Till specifically to cover All-In is an interesting message to give off, All-In is a song about freedom. A type of freedom that allows you to live confidently and freely, creating whatever type of world you want, the stage is yours, so make what you want of it. living confidently in YOUR OWN SKIN. And living freely "cause you only got one life to live"
Freedom is something Till fights for relentlessly, and confidence is a bravado, as by far the most uncontrolled and tested person in the cast, he still fights for his boundaries and self-expression even when he's punished, molded into something he's not, or beaten into obedience, tested far past the limit; he never loses his bite. A wild dog can never be tamed.
This is the cover that follows what becomes of Till after round 6, and still, in Till's all-in, he sounds so raw, pained, energized, and passionate desperation is evident. It's a contrast from HyunA's celebratory cheers and upbeat mood because Till isn't celebrating the idea of freedom; he's angrily proving to everyone, especially the aliens, that he isn't backing down yet and he'll still keep fighting and that he can fight for his own freedom.
Till's cover of All-in is truly the most powerful depiction of Till's fighting spirit, after everything he's gone through, the pain, the grief. It's all in his voice and the way he sings he's pained the entire time he sings and he's aggressive because the fire of his spirit is lit once again. He's going "all-in" so to speak and expressing himself.
The tape around his neck--
It's a contrast to HyunA who doesn't mind showing her brand, even proudly showing it off as a form of reclaiming her individualism.
Till is different. Because being reminded that he is and was once a pet is not something he would want to remember about himself, he will always bitterly try to distance himself from that fact in any way he can, HyunA feels free from the system when she can own it, but when Till sees his branding, he'll still always feel that collar. It's a testament to his self-deprecation, as long as the evidence of his past is present, and he still feels all the pain the aliens inflicted on him, It'd be presumptuous to think he'd ever feel like he can relate and fit in with the other "fools" who are so free.
It'd be presumptuous to think he'd ever feel free. That's what the aliens wanted, right?
Another interesting part of this is that the name 'All-in" is actually a real-life poker reference, to go "all-in" in poker is to voluntarily bet all of your remaining chips, there is nothing else you can do but hope for the best after that point (and hope you win).
When HyunA sings All-in, she deceives you into thinking she has the upper hand or good hand, and that she will win. When Till sings it, he's giving it all away recklessly, he's showing all he has. Basically, him saying fuck it. he doesn't know if he'll win or not but says, "Let's go all-in and risk it all anyways" Even if internally he knows that this is stupid and risky, this is his foolish rebellion.
At this point he has nothing to lose and nothing to gain, it's his final stand as he lets his heart out not for the crowd, but for the family he lost, himself, a form of self-expression. He will be so nervous, so aggrieved but it's the freest he will ever feel on that stage.
The color symbolism also drives me CRAZY.
For his other two splash art, he's been represented with a color close enough to teal. In both songs, he's open when he sings and fully serene. Teal is a generally calming color, and it's not too evocative. It's more emotional (and has it's own reservations)
And then, we have green, which is a general symbol of growth, new beginnings, and freshness. After all, Till has been through all-in is a sign of his growth. And a new era of his life, or in other words a sudden tonal shift from his depressive state in round 6.
And for my favorite (it's not.) part! the head shot, (interesting how his has nearly the biggest impact out of them all.)
A bit of a theory.
It's a bit similar to one particular art of him, he has a little shape that's almost akin to impact from a gunshot near the same area.
So, I think this is tell-tale symbolism for a future injury, but the gun portrayed is a bubble gun. I believe it is symbolism for the wound being non-fatal, so even if Till loses and gets shot, he'll survive, fundamentally changed. and will probably join the rebellion, too.
/side note
The heartbeats in Till's version of all-in are faster and louder than HyunA's version, similar to CURE.
#trust me im qmeng#till all-in cover got me tweaking out big time do you UNDERSTAND how long i waited for this#ever since the teaser#GUHHH#IT'S BEEN IN MY MIND SINCE#i am never sleeping again fuck this#am i crazy about till alien stage no of course not#haahahah#if this sounds like a big rant i just want till to live bear with me WAIT NO COME BACK#im going so crazy about this its not even funny its so serious#this shit is so good though#the growls#and everything#urgh#till alien stage#alien stage#alien stage till#alnst#alnst till#i just really like how this song isnt all that much lika hyunA's in terms of tone#it has the same beat but when you look deeper into it. this is more dark than youd expect#to me it's not a cheerful take on All-IN it's a darker one through the perspective of someone on their final rope aggressively proving he's#not broken#this is also him grieving#everything about this scares me but i have a lot of faith in him.#(praise akugetsu I couldn't thank you enough)#alien stage round 6#alien stage round 7#alien stage analysis
