Gotham War is really playing out like God’s plan, ain’t it now
Task Force Z #4 (2022)
#different storylines being connected by themes that carryover. 👌🏻#bothered him so much he outright destroyed Jason’s access to free will#Rosenberg has a way of putting in some of the most satisfyingly well-put lines#that other writers could never have Jason say to Bruce#jason todd#red hood#dc#task force z#tfz#but also such a classic abuser move: everything you say being extremely self-centered#‘me *my* city *my* orders *I* don’t want you doing that’#then when you get called out for being a manipulative shit you say ‘I’m sorry YOU see it that way’ like suddenly it’s you not me huh#Bruce should make a failsafe that could cure his god complex#he needs some humbling

WE ARE | EP16
#we are#we are the series#we are series#tanfang#aou thanaboon#aouboom#boom tharatorn#my edits#weareedit#AOUBOOM MAIN LEADS WHEN???#i do appreciate them and the way they’ve been portraying tanfang#i know tan was a bit over the top 99% of the time#but every scene and touch felt so genuine#and i’m not gonna credit that to new#bc he wasn’t able to direct ppw in a way that didn’t make their kisses look a bit awkward#i know scenes have to look aesthetically pleasing in some way#and that’s why we keep having to deal the ‘no one would kiss with this much space for jesus between each other’ complaints#but like look at aouboom here#this is mostly them and their acting choices in my humble opinion#and don’t get me started on the pecks#ppw BARELY touched the other one’s lips when they had to do a peck kiss#like cmon the difference between ppw and aouboom pecks is insane#i’m sorry for picking on ppw but i’m a bit sad that some of their romantic scenes were a bit lackluster#especially that very last kiss which tbh i rather wouldn’t have seen bc it felt a bit awkward to me#but that may be just me#i need new to get a bit more frisky with kiss scenes when it comes to his directing#bc i feel like friskier kiss scenes only happen when the actors mostly do their thing after finding out what the director wants#(maybe i’m completely wrong about new but tkdkfdkddkdk)#and don’t get me wrong idgaf if there are kisses or not but if there’s a kiss scene you should commit instead of holding yourself back idk#and ppw definitely need a better director to help them achieve that bc jojo was definitely better at directing them

i can hardly believe the bait and switch that elrond and the rings of power pulled on us this season. in the beginning, he is far too busy self-righteously blaming poor galadriel for falling for sauron's tricks. but then he puts on armour, lets his wild curls free, and transforms into a warrior-librarian covered in mud and blood, punching orcs in the face, and setting other orcs on fire. and i loved it.
#no because my main issue with rings of power is the way it writes women (it's soooo bad it's painful it's really steeped in some ugly stuff)#the harfoots are the only storyline that passes the bechdel test (and it is by far the worst storyline in the show so does it count??)#and the way galadriel is constantly belittled and lectured by elrond who is her junior in rank and age and wisdom in the lore is... a choic#(it feels very male showrunners wanting to 'humble' a female character to me and nothing to do with elrond and yeah i fucking hate it)#and because of the ragebait weirdos people who love the show are determined to be really super positive about it at all times#which i understand the compulsion (i do) but we do need room to speak in a thoughtful way about the show's painful gender bias#(one of the reason the kiss was really degrading is because it was so steeped in *gender stuff* as in elrond would never have kissed a man)#(and the kiss after a 1/2 a season of him berating her for the halbrand stuff ... yeah ... yeah ... yeah ... really uncomfortable man.... )#and poor elrond is a victim of this too because he's the vessel through which the male showrunners act out their unchecked sexism#but when they put aside those biases and let elrond be elrond the character really sings (obviously but y'now)#elrond#trop#the rings of power

If your still undecided about what modern au Machete would have as a job, I would like to nominate him as a niche fashion model. Not like a popular celebrity, because he's not conventionally attractive, but he has that aura. He can Walk (in heels!!!)
I want to give him an excuse to wear all different kinds of fancy clothes, basically. He deserves to be dressed to the nines and glare down at an audience from the runway.
.
#modern Machete is into fashion without a doubt#enough to dream about being a designer or a model or anyone in those circles#but I'm not sure he'd have the personality for it#I think you need to be at least passably sociable as a model right?#bold enough to put yourself out there but also humble and cooperative so people will want to work with you#and you have to be adaptable and stress-resistant to deal with long shooting days and travel#you gotta let hair stylists and makeup artists touch you and be somewhat ok with dressing and undressing with other people in the room#I tend to think his day job is something kind of boring and not glamorous at all but he's very good at it and it pays well#and he uses some of those paychecks to buy himself nice things to wear#but it was very sweet of you to think he could be a model he would've loved to hear that#answered#anonymous

HERMIT A DAY MAY - DAY 12
Jono x Cowboy Bebop
For day 12 I chose Jono and drew him in the style of Cowboy Bebop! Don't know who Jono is? Well, are you a Hermitcraft fan? Then yes you do.
Jono is the incredibly talented musician behind, among other songs:
Work! Hermitcraft Theme Song Doc's Intro and Timelapse Music (The Goatfather and G.O.A.T) Skizzleman Farts ''The Hermitcraft Horn Song'' (HornyCraft) Please Hold Please Hold (Too) Unhinged
His most recent song is Impulse's new timelapse music, CYBERPULSE If you haven't listened to CYBERPULSE yet, go listen to it right now. It's SO cool and I'm not biased because I am the robot voice in the beginning Anyway, I chose Jono for this because he does not get enough hype! He makes incredible music and he streams on Twitch too! Note: Jono's Twitch streams are like, barely PG-13 on a well-behaved day. You've been warned.
I thought Cowboy Bebop worked well for Jono because Cowboy Bebop has a great jazz-inspired soundtrack yada yada yada who cares. if you wanna know more about Cowboy Bebop and see style references you can google it, this post is bout Jono. Go give Jono some love. :) ( Gamers outreach dono link )
#i'm so serious go listen to his stuff#and join him on his twitch streams#he makes the hermitcraft music live!#btw he's got this whole thing where he streams as a persona called Screen#so he will tell you he is not Jono but THINE HUMBLE SCREEN#who is from what I understand some kind of maniacal villain who took over Jono's channel and tied him up in the basement#until he needs Jono to record some guitar#You'll catch on pretty quickly don't worry just roll with it#jono#jono smithers#jonosmithers#sockgang#hermitaday#hermitcraft#seriously go listen to cyberpulse#also Jono is Ren's younger brother

So, I’m a Dazai hater (i adore him) but my friend used to be an unabashed simp for him. He just couldn’t see why i kept saying I wanted to put him in soup, catapult him, ect ect… UNTIL he read Untold Origins
Now our conversations will be like “omg Chuuya is so good” “ikr and wan aku is so squishy” “i wanna boil Dazai” “REAL”
He still finds Dazai attractive but that now comes with a heeaaavy amount of slandering as well so thank you Untold Origins chapter 1
#bsd#bungou stray dogs#bungou gay dogs#bungou sd#bsd dazai#dazai#bsd dazai slander is life#its all in good fun and i love his character but also he needs some humbling#bungo stray dogs#bungo stray dogs dazai#bsd untold origins

Broke: Damian is bad at being a Robin because he's too violent
Woke: Damian is bad at being a Robin because he's afraid to hurt people
#obviously it's always funny to do the whole 'what do u have there Damian?' 'a knife!' 'nO' thing#and like make him a horrendous and silly evil gremlin who can and will pull a sword out in the middle of a parking lot to fight#but listen#he doesn't like the assassin background that much and once he learns about like The Normal World he's honestly in anguish about it#that's canon! that's the truth! (right?) (the whole thing with Goliath?? I'm not making it up right???)#i think he's just the kind of guy who loves his swords because they're what he knows and they're a strong connection to his family#but I think it's nice if he spends his time on field telling others what to do because everyone else learned to fight the OTHER way#(by defending and subduing opponents rather than maiming and killing)#so he prefers to take on a tactician general role despite being perfectly capable as a fighter because he knows what everyone else needs#to do to succeed in fights - especially when things are a bit of a mess - but is afraid to be too rough or scary or violent or Demon Son-is#(the things that make him feel like he doesn't belong in a happy civilian world - WHICH IS WHAT HE WANTS IN MY HUMBLE OPINION.)#in this essay I will explain why this allows for him to show awe and love for each of his siblings' fight styles by utilising all of them#and I just think Dami Babs and Tim could really work together as a detective/tactician comms team (with varying distances from the field)#because I think that'd be so fun: Tim is solving (mid-range) Babs is watching/providing supports (far) and Damian is commanding (close)#because the others are like The Bruisers (in their non-lethal way) who trust themselves to only hurt as much as is needed and are good at i#PLUS babs is SO stretched thin and literally the backbone of the bats so I just want a future where some of the kids become HER robins yk#anyway back to the point of the post:#it's kind of alluded to in 2017 supersons; EVERYONE in it comments on how Robin is JUST doing flips and shouting orders#and jon is like The Muscle and the one Doing Stuff - but Jon IS following orders 85% of the time and it works out well for them because#that dynamic of 'I'm not sure I can do it right by myself and I trust you to be my partner so we can do it right together' really#is my favourite like.. they're both filling these ideas of who they're meant to be and they just :( they just seek their own path together#oh no I lost the point again immediately and it became another WHY DO THEY SEPARATE THEM rant#I just think it's really fun to think of Damian as 'the most well trained fighter but ALSO the most likely to step back from a fight'#like yeah when we add in my thoughts on pit rage it adds some angst but that doesn't matter here in THIS post#have I even talked about my hc on pit rage/madness? I don't think I have LMAO (maybe another day)#anyway it's late I'm tired why do I always chat in the tags so much#my posts are literally all in the tags 2% post 98% tags smh#damian wayne#damian al ghul#damian al ghul wayne

"I think I could beat Cayde in The Crucible."
A few days later...
Him:"Aaaaaaand apparently I'm against Cayde...Not gonna lie though. I do like my odds here." 😏
Me:"Never bet against me."
The results:
Now,this score normally wouldn't be anything to write home Tumblr about,but the situation in and of itself is (to me. I think this is hilarious and wanted to share.)
Technically,his score is lower than that because two of those defeats were because of my own hubris. I got cocky and was bounding around the map and bounded off of the ledge twice,which,if you think about it,was pretty on brand.
He spent the majority of the second half of the round hiding in his little bubble repeatedly asking where I was. My answer?
"I'm with you, kiddo. Your Light,is my Light. You're my favorite... don't ever forget that." promptly followed by me absolutely smoking him and winning the game.
I strike fear into this Titan's heart and the best part is,he forgets that fear the second we step out of the Crucible.
#baede-6#Dude has a big ego so he'd 100% deny this ever happened.#Now I by no means claim to be good at Crucible. He however brags about it.#How's that humble pie taste?#Side note:I was listening to the Forsaken soundtrack the entire time.#You can't even beat me dressed as Cayde and you thought you could beat Cayde-6?#That is...that is some CONFIDENCE right there.#This was entertaining as and I think I needed it.#“Why do I feel like I'm going to be ambushed?!?”#“WHERE THE H*** DID YOU COME FROM?!?”#“I know we can't get up high in here but it's you so I wouldn't be surprised if you somehow managed and I keep looking up.”#“I f****”* HATE that super.“ to be fair he hates all of my supers when they're turned against him but loves it when I use them against bbeg#“I don't want to be your favorite anymore Cayde!!!!”#“I should learn by now that you're going to ambush me. You're a Hunter all the way through and I should learn. But do I? No.”#“I'm going to get ambushed I can feel it. I'm going to get ambush-”#“WHERE.THE.EVER.LOVING.F***.ARE.YOU?”#destiny#destiny 2#destiny the game#personal baede 6 business#cayde-6#baede-6 screenshots#“I think I could beat Cayde in the Crucible part two: Electric Boogaloo.#Give him a hand though because that floof is on point.👏👏👏#The map was on Io so I feel like Ikora was rooting me on.

Yunli being an absolute gremlin child was not on my bingo card for this patch but I am NOT complaining. She's such a little brat (affectionate)
#hsr#yunli#honkai star rail 2.4#I've seen some posts about people not liking her Because she is a brat#to which I say:#that is part of the fun#and to which I also say:#so help me I am drafting a post comparing Yunli at the outset of this quest and Yanqing at the start of the Loufu quest as we speak.#they BOTH start off as gifted child prodigies who have never faced a substantial challenge.#they BOTH start out presumptuous of their own ability and needing to be humbled#Yanqing looks comparably more mature in this quest because he has already been humbled (read: bodied by the entirety of the Xianzhou quest)#and I'll bet (at least I HOPE) that Yunli has a similar lesson that she's going to learn in these quests#I will stop rambling in the tags for now and try to organize my thoughts into a longer post for later but in conclusion#Yanqing and Yunli are both my beloved children and I love them and their squabbling so much and I want them to become friends#EDITING THIS FURTHER to clarify that I don't mean this in an antagonistic way to yunli dislikers. if any of you even see this#moreso a 'your comments have started me thinking' kinda way

the most bizarre thing about ep8 is everyone repeating how this was Jones' best work
#?????????????#iwtv spoilers#some choices were made. not the best ones. not even good#louis saved by two white dudes from a very evil brown guy. the change that armand was planning to kill him. everything made about lestat#poor lestat tho ://///////////// so humble. so sad. how evil of armand#i'm lauging but lowkey pissed#daniel. no. eric looked hot. but no. a mess. too rushed#right after claudia's death to have this. not a single deep emotion because it got all mixed up in this rush#so did armand like louis? was this all for lestat? kill me. or did he sacrifice louis. again. for what. insecurity. again. because of lesta#i need to rewatch because my brain stopped working after louis had meowed on tv#vampchives

guys i've decided that i'm gonna be the one to translate the canon dusttale fics. it's a responsibility that has long been overdue and as the mtt's strongest warrior i will be the one to take up this responsibility. since i need to read the dusttale fics to see what his REAL CANON personality is like so i can finish my horror character analysis i decided to just translate the fic myself anyways. i dont know a lick of korean but i'm sure some research and context clues can fix any errors that pop up and i think i'm well versed in dustlore enough to fill in any gaps from translating
#tricule rant#i have some BALLS to be doing both these projects wtf#WHO TOLD ME I COULD DO THIS. WHO TOLD ME I HAD THE MOTIVATION AND SKILL TO DO THIS#but fr how the HELL HAS the utmv been around for like 7 years and NOBODY has translated the dusttale fics yet??? this is a tragedy#melopomene reference lmao. ANYWAYS i'll work on that soon :3 just gotta finish doing the canon horrortale part of my horror analysis#once i'm done with canon horrortale then i'll get to translating#so im doing a big project for horror. a big project for dust. what does killer get?#NOTHING!!!! he gets nothing from me. mans needs to be humbled anyways smh#ok but fr i dont actually know what i'll do for killer. i WOULD do another character analysis but like.......#i actually think i know killer the LEAST out of the mtt#and also he has the most deleted media. i dont wanna go through an archive to find his shit#plus there are already some amazing killer analysises out there!!!! not sure what else i can do for him#he can get my blessing to marry horror and dust perhaps but that's it

there are some days when i'm like "hey be nicer to the kids they're just being kids" and some days when i'm like "okay yeah you know what the kids are fucking dumb about this get their asses" and then there are some days like today where i'm just FUCK THEM KIDS and have a visceral need to punt a teenager across the room.
but i don't. but boy do i fucking want to
#moki talks#my teenage employee is driving me fucking BONKERS today#boy needs to go work a fucking mcdonalds for a few weeks and humble his damn self like the rest of us did#arrogant little prick#but also he's so incredibly talented and craaaaazy smart#but also#needs to go get his adhd diagnosed and take some fucking adderall lord have mercy#mad respect to every teacher out there who handles teenagers i'd have already strangled a few i think#little kids are fine its the teens that get under my skin#like. FUCK. i was a shitty teen sometimes but at least at my job i knew when to shut the fuck up#anyway. deeeeep breaths#woooosah

AHH, i know the general consensus on that poll that i did a while ago was that blonde hair barton is the preferred one — but just give me a second y'all to go INSANE over this specific picture of barton's FC as a brunet, because i am SLAMMING my hands on the table loudly and looking (dis)respectfully!!
#OF MONSTERS AND MEN: musings.#ooc post.#like i don't normally find guys with stubble attractive NGL but OMGGG. he gave what needed to be given is all i'm going to say which is a-#full course meal in my humble opinion ahahhh and something about the wet dog look just seems to appeal to me for some reason#IDK if that's just me y'all but this picture always reminds me that barton is you know... a little handsome NGL LMAO#WE DON'T TREAT HIM LIKE THE COMMON RUBBISH WE'RE USED TO: visage.

2024 reads / storygraph
At The Feet Of The Sun
book 2 in a slow paced high fantasy duology*
the right hand of the emperor (who is off searching for an heir) struggles with what to do after passing on his responsibilities and also discovering various pieces of information that are mindblowing to him, personally,
after adventure is thrust upon him, he travels to find His Radiancy and they go on some otherworldly adventures while growing closer and figuring out the nature of their friendship
(*there’s extra novellas & i think another book coming? duology adjacent, currently,)
#At The Feet Of The Sun#lays of the heart-fire#aroaessidhe 2024 reads#giggling and kicking my feet. and also crying#bro the yearning….the yearning#I can definitely see why this loses people - it’s so long and very self indulgent#(listen. i enjoy it a lot . but does it need to be THAT long (i just checked. 375k? lord))#but it is easy to read and also very funny. it felt less repetitive than the first book to me#I did find it hard to keep track of some of the side characters though#The first world-travelling stuff caught me off guard initially - I feel like all the weird magic was more background in book 1?#or maybe I just didn't pay attention.#taking a step back it is a bit like - kip sure does achieve everything and then some and just continues to achieve everything huh#and it gets to a point where it's like.....okay yes I get he's so talented at this etc etc.#but I guess it’s a nice change of pace from the kingly swordfighting fantasy protagonist who’s perfect and wins everything -#someone whose skill is people and negotiation in a humble way is a bit more interesting. still. it maybe felt less grounded after a while?#the deep exploration of platonic yearning and desire for strong friendship and fear over that person just wanting romance/sex#when that’s Not what you want out of the relationship………#not to mention his complex feelings over meeting two people who were like his platonic soulmate rolemodels#and then finding out they just used that term because gay relationships weren’t accepted and trying to not be disappointed#(because gay is also good!) but also like. so lonely in feeling like nobody understands his desire for a platonic soulmate#to be treated equally as romantic relationships are. oof#I am a little baffled to see people interpret it as a romantic asexual relationship?#I feel like that does such a disservice to the . everything that has been set up in what 600k words of books#like the implication of that is that you think other romantic rships w/o sex are unheard of in this world. I find that hard to believe idk#(I mean - a bit romantic on fitzroy’s end; and in the nebulous queerplatonic area between friendship and romance; sure#but like a straight up romantic relationship just without sex - I don’t understand how it could be interpreted that way lol?)#(anyway other people’s interpretations don’t matter)#I do have questions about the telepathic dinosaur soulmates. you can’t just mention that and now show me them#also. kip being like 'wait there were sirens? i wonder if i can hire them' kshfkjsgkf#asexual books

Heyyyyy, here comes my ramble of the *checks notes* week I think?
Anyway this is an expansion of this post
Kalim and his sense of self-worth
Note: 1) this is a ramble so my English might not be the best in this, but I hope that it'll turn out readable enough. 2) this might not be accurate to canon, it's just my perception of the character(s), I'm sorry for any inaccuracies.
Anyways, if you did read the linked post this is basically my thought process before getting to that conclusion:
Do you ever wonder if Kalim thinks lowly of himself? If he believes he's replaceable despite being the heir bc of all the siblings he has? If he thinks about how his own family attempts against his life so one of his siblings becomes the next heir? About how they just see him as a target instead of a person? About how he was born, he was just a baby, and there was already people who wanted him dead?
Do you ever think about how no one considers him outside of his status? People get close to him, take advantage of him, try to kill him just bc of his title. He probably doesn't have any sense of person-hood outside of being the heir of the Asim
And then his best friend, the only person he trusted the most made sure that Kalim was virtually useless as a person. Yeah, I love Jamil and I know he has reasons for it but that doesn't mean I won't acknowledge how much it affects Kalim negatively that Jamil never let him learn not even the most basic skills. He set him up to failure (though I don't blame Jamil for trying to look after himself and his family, also the fact that he started taking care of Kalim as a literal child himself)
And then it turns out his best friend betrayed him and hates him for reasons that, while justified, aren't even his fault, but he cares and loves his friend so what does he do? He forgives him and keeps silent about the betrayal bc that's the only way he can protect Jamil. Kalim isn't dumb or naive when he forgives him, he's aware that he can punish him or let his parents (or even Jamil's) punish him, he's aware he can take everything from Jamil, even his life, if he wishes to. He's aware to some extent that Jamil needs him more than he needs him, even if Jamil isn't aware himself. That's why he keeps silent, to protect the only friend he trusted with his life
Anyway, this is why I think Kalim believes his unlovable even if he's a likable person
#mhm anyway yeah#i like it when people write fanfics where kalim has an idea of what's going on#on book 4 but he's so deeply in denial that he never puts 2 and 2 together#until the truth is right in front of him#while jamil thinks he was unaware the whole time#idk. i just love it when people write jamil discovering things about kalim#when he thought he knew everything about him and makes him look like an idiot#i just think jamil needs some humbling sometimes#yami rambles#twst#twisted wonderland#kalim al asim#jamil viper#scarabia
