everyday i can’t help but think about darry and dallys relationship and his reaction (movie wise) when dally died
like steve was at standing with hands in the air and he had this horrified yet look of disbelief on his face. which is similar to the rest of the gangs reactions but darry ?
he’s jumping around pulling his hair and hysterically screaming at the cops that “he’s just a kid you stupid idiots”
#i hope someone else has the words#bc i’m too inarticulate to analyze this properly#but patrick swayze!darry has ruined my brain#i get the urge to watch the movie but then i remember#he’s just a kid you stupid idiots#like ?? wdym they were close enough for darry of all the gang to be the one to spaz out like that#the outsiders#the outsiders 1983#darry curtis#dally winston#dallas winston

"Jason just needs to see things from his family's perspective and understand how much they love him (despite them never actually communicating or showing him through their actions)" is out. "The batfamily putting a single bit of effort into understanding Jason and reconciling with him on his own terms" is in.
#my dc posting#jason todd#dc#like genuinely i am sooo tired of the first#like yes yes jason is a stupid unstable idiot who misunderstands everything and somehow comes to the most stupid#wrong conclusions ever and he just needs to see things from his family's perspective#and learn how much they loved and missed him when he was dead WHATEVERRR can you shut uppp#cus yknow how many times i've read fic of any of the batfam actually holding jason's opinion as valid or even doing silly lil small things#like 'not horribly invading his privacy' and 'actually respecting his very reasonable boundaries'? VERY rarely.#when will i get to read a fic where jason's extremely valid&understandable complaints and critiques are actually taken to heart and#anyone puts any effort into actually improving themselves and finding a middle ground#but no sorry i forgot. jason's just a fucking idiot who misreads and misunderstands everything his family does bc he's not a goddamn mind#reader who can somehow understand every miniscule twitch of batman's cape#if my dad prioritized my abuser over me i'd be very valid in concluding he might not care for me that much actually </3#i stop being sympathetic to bruce's issues the moment they're used as an excuse for him to mistreat his kids sorryyy#sorry i'm in a pissy mood rn. this isn't directed at any one specific person i'm just annoyed how common this is. it's a whole pattern.#its own genre of jason fic with no warning for it

Hunter notices Amity is really distressed about that new kid Odalia somehow has, so he eventually suggests kidnapping because Odalia sucks as a parent and why not? Amity is still in her bloodline deduction state of mind so she blurts out that people will then make the awful mistake of assuming Grimwalker Alador is THEIR child, which is the wrong thing to say because for Hunter that's hilarious and even more reason to go kidnap him.
i love the shitpost horror-comedy universe where lumiter just keep acquiring grimwalker babies that look like them. in increasingly stupid & ill-conceived ways. between luzwalker and aladorwalker anyone who knows the three of them is like damn hunter why does the universe let you have unprotected sex with Two girlfriends. while hunter is out here like. ok. i have literally never even Attempted to touch either of these women in my life. and have no idea What The Actual Fuck is going on. however i Will commit to the bit if prompted.
#IT'S SO STUPID. none of this is canon and i rarely get invested in kid AUs but i DO love kid AUs that are really fucking funny.#too many grimwalkers! a timeline about how nobody will stop fucking making grimwalkers#also eternally compelled by a hunter who will just roll with anything. his levels of not giving a fuck are off the charts#i think canon hunter cares a whole lot about everything all the time forever. however#AU hunter has all his emotional eggs in like 3 baskets & anything outside of that is just a fun playground. why would he care what#anyone thinks of him. people have been making the wrong assumptions about him and luz for as long as he can remember#if being assumed to be someone's boyfriend protects them and/or furthers a very funny rivalry then sure. he'll have fun with it#AU hunter is the kind of friend every dyke needs when they go to non-queer bars. 'do you want me to kill that guy for you'#replies#toh#princess luz au#and who is that other witch#horrible mindscape trauma pals#shitty idiot repression gang

I know 'person with secret to hide spots other person with secret to hide but doesn't say anything' is like. Thee trope in superhero crossovers, but come on! Some of these guys have been doing this for decades! There's tons of heroes that have gone to pretty extreme lengths to be Completely Imperceptible in civilian life.
Don't you think it's scarier, after all is said and done, to sit there and think I didn't notice a thing? I wouldn't have ever realised? I would never have known? To know that someone you were familiar with - close with, even! - had this whole other personality and skillset and powers and experiences and life just behind the curtain, and they hid it so completely you didn't even see it was there.
'I always knew there was something off' what if you didn't. How world shaking would it be to be so utterly blindsided? To know that this person had somehow learned to so deceptive?
#Strongly inspired by the dp x dc where Danny knows what up IMMEDIATELY or a bat clocks Danny as super suspicious within mins of meeting#Or the amount of reveal fics caused by the hero slipping up in some stupid way and getting themselves doxxed against their will#Like come on!! Full time heroes like superman or batman or Spidey go to great lengths to construct an entirely separate civilian persona!#And yes I know they've had their idiot moments when it comes to their identities but they've kept their secret rock solid for irl DECADES#What's an identity reveal without drama!! Shake it up! Stir the pot! Not a slow and gradual build up of suspicion and stress#But two high speed trains coming at right-angles and the audience is the only one who can see the incoming crash#Twist the knife in if you want. Make it HURT. Make it completely rewrite what they believed.#Short ID reveals are great for this because you can SEE the ripple effects spreading out as the story ends. Just BANG.#But also no ID reveal at all. The main character goes through the story regularly interacting with and developing character right alongside#A hero in hiding and no one is ever the wiser. You're a worker in WE fending off attempts to steal your inventions and Bruce Wayne#Invites you to his office to discuss security and he walks you back to your office when you get nervous about a break in.#You're struggling with school bullies and getting into trouble over your photography hobby and Peter Parker is right there alongside#You complaining about rich kids and fiddling with the outdated finicky lenses you got from the school.#You're a reporter unpicking a mystery scandal and you ask resident tank Clark Kent if he's able to play bodyguard if you go somewhere shady#The reader knows. No one else notices a thing.#And besides focusing on the civilian side is a nice change of pace! Let's see how they manage leading double lives!#What do I even tag this#batman#superman#Marvel#Dcu#spiderman#secret identity#identity reveal#long tags#captain marvel#miraculous ladybug#I know I know#hero and villain

i love tfa sentinel prime because hes like
perfect example of youth arrogance and pride
theres so much to do. so much potential how to develop him from there
you can drop him into life and let his superficial layers shatter
you can have him outgrow that shell and have it fall off on its own
you can have him shrink in there and fill the empty space with insecurities
another season of tfa would fix my entire life
develop sentinel prime and my life is yours (even if its backwards AHA)
#when i was young i was ubased and i didnt understand peak#i grew a little and i met more people#sometimes people put on that face so others stop talking to them#sometimes its a response to try to control how others react to you. gives a superficial sense that you are in charge#when i started seeing more possibilities i was like damn i cant believe i was an idiot#now im even older and dude screw that i just love a cocky bastard#hes just an asshole just cuz. who cares if its 'justified' or not. its fun#now im 10 minutes older than when i started this post and i decided everything is good. every single flavor of tfa sentinel prime is peak#give me 100 more of this stupid bitch#give me all of that#technically i was still based as a kid its just that i got peer pressured into pretending to hate him

i don't think i'll ever get over how people treat kids that aren't good in school as worthless no matter what. "oh it can't be that bad" my guy idk how to tell you this but the last time i went to a normal high school the principal called me into his office to brag about how he failed me in all of my classes before the semester was even finished & i should quit while i'm ahead cuz i'm too stupid ("officially" diagnosed as such by a school counselor & a psychiatrist!!) to succeed. & this is considered normal
#''poor teachers!!'' yeah well at least they can fucking quit & go work somewhere else#''okay but times are different than when you went to school in the 1970's'' this was 2016 my guy. shut the fuck up#''well maybe you were a violent & severely misbehaving kid!'' i wasn't. i have ADHD & severe anxiety disorder & depression#my biggest crime was being too exhausted & dopamine deprived to do my homework#my dad talks about how he was treated in school & i'm like damn dude i went through the same exact shit#how is it that a majority of teachers & principals are still abusive power-tripping pieces of shit 60 years later#why haven't things changed#well actually the answer is simple & it's because they want disabled people to disappear#& if abled students that simply disagree with the way things are done get caught in the crossfire then that is acceptable#because anyone not fit to make billionaires a billion more dollars should just die!#anyways here are my original tags from that gravity falls post i just reblogged:#I know this is supposed to be an appreciation post but like. ''for being the ''dumb one'' he's surprisingly rational.'' seriously??#as ''the dumb'' but ''surprisingly rational'' one of my family this is THEE biggest misunderstanding & it drives me up the fucking wall#just because a person struggles in one area doesn't mean they're stupid & should be an irrational dumb dumb idiot baby holy fuckkk#sorry to OP but even when people try to ''appreciate'' stuff like this they can't help but throw in insults#simply because they genuinely believe that ''even though you're stupid you SURPRISINGLY act competent sometimes'' is a compliment#I'm less mad about this & more sad that this kind of shit is still so prevalent in 2024#both Stanley & Stanford are smart & competent & rational#they just show it in different ways & exceed in different (sometimes overlapping) subjects#this is normal for human beings but the big societal scam is that if you don't do it in the way Ford does then you're stupid & a failure#& being surprised that Stan is also smart & competent in his own ways is the biggest sing that you fucking fell for it dude#btw before i get @ ed for this. i WAS that kid#i was so much that kid the school actually diagnosed me with stupid & spiteful & i was told to quit while i was ahead (they failed me befor#obviously this is very personal for me but also i don't think people realize the language they use is on purpose & it's used specifically t#& it's still happening right now & that just. makes me wanna cry honestly#like why are people still surprised that people can specialize in something despite bad grades in school#you know. the thing we all know is literally rigged to either put you in jail or in a factory to make billionaires more money.#man sorry for the rant the original spirit of the post is super correct but like fuck HS grade-centric judging of people's entire character#Stan being able to defeat Bill is just not at all surprising if you were him or knew/know someone like him#or really paid any attention at all to the show while watching it

funniest thing about having an absent father bc of work is that i'm supposed to be thankful for it bc he brought in the money.
#johnny's silly rambles#like. i am. but i'm supposed to not still have issues with him being here#when he left again and again in my childhood#do you think a small kid has a concept of “he has to do that for the money”?#also I'm supposed to be thankful for him coming back after all he did???#let's be fucking real here he abandoned his kids (us) and now he has a fucking child somewhere else which he now-#-also fucking ABANDONED#he fucked up big time on all sides just bc he's fucking stupid as shit and doesn't know real life consequences#and he still doesn't bc my mum took him in AGAIN after all this#he's a spoiled fucking dumb idiot that has no life and who won't deal with shit#he won't even clean his own glasses HOW FUCKING RIDICULOUS IS THAT#anyways.........#just thought of this bc of lrb lol

Nami: Geez what's that noise on deck
Usopp: Just Luffy and Zoro having a fight
Nami: What about
Usopp: Whose turn it is to use that one brain cell they share
#I don't get it. They say such wise and intelligent stuff sometimes. How can they be so DUMB#I mean it's possible to handle them when they're separated. But COMBINED. Hell to the fucking no#They came they saw they fucked shit up#Each of them is dumb but when they're together they somehow manage to be even more dumb like what is that. What#It's when you meet your friends and you all just become that same level of stupid.#Zoro is a brutal badass my ass. Just put him next to Luffy and then see how much of an idiot he actually is.#They're so comfortable around each other that they just don't care. They allow themselves to be as stupid as they really are#And these guys are future pirate king and his right hand aka worlds strongest swordsman. OH MY GOD#Everyone will wonder how they actually achieved their goals while being so goddamn stupid#Zoro's dumb but he makes pretty kids#One piece#monkey d. luffy#roronoa zoro#Sun god and King of Hell

idk if this was asked already but have you watched/read Red, White & Royal Blue? The movie surprised me bc it was actually well done. But consider this!!! son of the first american female president Desmond Miles meet-disasters prince Altair, second son of the british princess Maud and syrian dignitary(?) Umar. Malik is Altair's older brother bc he has the energy : D Connor is Desmond's cousin bc i love him. its difficult for Desmond as ppl expect him to live up to Altair's reputation as the prodigious but aloof prince or whatever. In the books Alex Clairemont-Diaz has a sister who pretends to date Prince Henry when rumors of their relationship was going around, Desmond needs a big sister we should give him a sister. You know what just make the whole family big and add the Auditores in the mix, they could be more Miles cousins or idk maybe Italian royalty. You can run with it however you like tho!!!
I haven’t watched it yet but it is in my watchlist XD
Okay, so let’s set up the backstory for this one!
For this one, how about Desmond is the son of Jennifer Scott, the first American female president (sidebar: in this one, the Kenways have been in America for centuries so they’re an American family coming from ‘old money’).
This would make Ratonhnhaké:ton his cousin while Haytham suffers as the the little brother of the president XD
Of course, Edward is the best grandfather who may or may not be helping any shenanigans Desmond gets into. Ratonhnhaké:ton swears he’s there to keep an eye on his cousin but ends up helping him instead.
As for the Auditores… hhhhmmmm. Perhaps they’re Desmond’s cousins from his father’s side (William Auditore Scott being the youngest brother of Giovanni Auditore) and he grew up with them so they’re more like siblings than cousins?
To Altaïr’s side…
Altaïr would be the second son of the British Princess Maud after she remarried the Syrian dignitary Umar (and it was a huuuggee scandal) who already had two sons, Malik and Kadar. This means that Malik and Kadar would be older than Altaïr (with Kadar being a year older maybe?) and would be his half brothers.
Who were Maud’s first son?
Jacob Fyre who has an older twin, the crown princess Evie Frye.
That’s right! We’re making Altaïr have a complicated big family in this one!
Also, we can change up the whole ‘sister pretends to date the prince’ and have Evie pretend-date Desmond instead, doing it as a favor to Altaïr and also because she does care for her younger brother.
So, in this case, Altaïr is torn between two families, the royal family who are pushing so much expectations and duties to him which he’s able to meet and his father’s family who worries about him and thinks all that royal ‘power’ is getting in his head (they’re worried about his arrogance as well as this problem of his of believing he has to be the best at everything). His accomplishments are also driving a wedge between him and his older siblings, especially with Evie who is supposed to be the crown princess but is always compared to her younger half-brother while Jacob ignores it the way he always does (so yeah, Altaïr’s royal family is screwed up… oh, did I mention we’ll have Minerva as Maud’s mother and reigning queen to add more drama in the royal family? I didn’t? Well, now you know XD)
And then we have Desmond Scott, the charming oldest son of the president of the United State, who always act like everything is okay and he’s having a great time, even when he has heard and read all the comparisons being ‘whispered’ behind his back comparing him to Altaïr’s reputation, not knowing that Altaïr is annoyed by Desmond’s friendly ‘laziness’ (he gets along with Jacob sooo well it’s scary) and it took him a while to realize that he was actually jealous of Desmond because he makes it look like living with such powerful parents was… easy.
Enjoyable even.
And the more they spend time together, the more they realize that their jealousy was transforming into something much more deeper…
… and more dangerous.
(I know you wanted Desmond to get a big sister but I was thinking who we could add and it was either Layla or Lucy (or Rebecca or Bishop???) in my mind but it felt like that wouldn’t work for some reason so, instead, Altaïr gets the Frye twins as his older siblings XD Desmond instead gets to have two younger siblings. One of them is Arno, of course, because Arno deserves a happy childhood and maybe… Lucy? idk)
#in this case#it would be funny if jacob and malik are the ones to tell altaïr#yup you’re sooo down for him you’ll betray the crown for his dick#while desmond gets his heads up from claudia of all people#after she hears him talk about how he feels to federico and ezio#who think that it’s still desmond wanting ‘to be altaïr’#and claudia just goes#no you idiot!#you’re in love with him!#you want to kiss him and adopt kids!#god boys are so stupid!#and when desmond tells ratonhnhaké:ton about it#he just goes#uuuhhh… i thought you knew that?#it was quite obvious???#i thought we just weren’t acknowledging it#like our own brocode or something?#you know you can totally change this#by changing history#and making syria still have a ruling monarch?#kinda like the kings of saudi arabia?#so like altaïr would be more or less a prince of syria instead#but making him british royalty#means we can screw with him more#and add the frye twins while we're at it#ask and answer#no usual tags because#altdes#red white and royal blue au

Confession that will get me cancelled: I will sometimes reference super mario logan videos cuz I used to watch some. and they were honestly really funny if you ignored the problematic bits.
#I AM SO SORRY EVERYONE. but some of those jokes have stuck with me for years.#UNIRONICALLY THE EPISODES HAD A REALLY GOOD FORMULA. LIKE WTF.#I’m not getting over the episode where they were gonna fail the test but Cody let them copy his test#and then the teacher said ‘you did really great Cody!’ he said ‘I got an A?’ the teacher said ‘yeah on all 3 of them!’#‘YOU IDIOTS COPIED MY N A M E TOO?????’ bro that was hilarious 😭😭😭#also the episode where Junior believed the Sun was a planet. bro. the plot twist that they sent him to the sun not because they believed him#but because they thought a kid stupid enough to believe you could land on the sun deserved to be sent to it 😭😭😭 WTFF#there are some episodes I remembered really liking but I don’t remember why#and as much as I’d like to rewatch them I… don’t think I can……..#I think if I went to rewatch old SML videos I’d be shot#also the journey to find the specific episodes would probably be a disaster#anyways that is my confession. I do not support SML or the problematic things in the episodes I liked.#it was just genuinely really funny and clever sometimes. unfortunately. I only watched it cuz my siblings did. side note all the special ed#kids in highschool loved it and I was confused cuz I was also a special ed kid who had seen it like. how did this ableist bs gain such an#autistic following. I’m telling you it’s because the episode formulas were actually really good. this sucks. I wish it wasn’t so problematic

Would the funky guys like listening to music? I feel like Buddy would cry listening to Moon will Sing by the Crane Wives
I really like the idea of the funky guys, pre-rescue, using singing to pass time - maybe tashi makes up silly little songs to make everyday chores more exciting for the kids, or eenek theaches everyone some galran songs(nobody except pal and soup really understand the words.. maybe thats for the better since i imagine galran songs that appeal to grief stricken 13 year olds arent suitable for kids lol), or pal has a memory of one of shiros favourite songs and sings it to the others, or soup hums melodies she overheard while being a gladiator to help taka fall asleep - JUST. singing as a love language.. good shit
and a very importrant thing to understand here is that none of them, een included, are good singers - theyre mediocre, bordering on pretty bad - but it doesnt matter! its about the human urge to connect! through music!! they sing their dumb songs and do stupid little dances and its great<3
post-rescue, suddenly they get access to practically infinite amounts of music from thousands of distinct cultures! but i think they generally stick to more mainstream stuff, the kind of songs you can sing along to with your family when it comes on the radio. tho buddy and taks(and also pal maybe<3) would propably explore more! .... oh. and taka definetly goes through an edgy phase at some point. so.... theres a lot of potential there
buddy is a sappy emotional trainwreck, they ABSOLUTELY get emotional over songs, so behold this historically accurate interpretation of him listening to the moon will sing for the first time:
also!
tashi and buddy are The Embarassing Older Sibling Duo, and they often start to (very badly)(and loudly) sing and dance in unison when they hear a song they both like- all the while taks is yelling at them to stop being annoying<3
this post is all over the place but oh well! i love em<3
#my funky guys#my art#thank you very very much for the ask!! i know it took me longer than usual to answer#school happened:/#but i had a ton of fun answering this!!#theyre just sillay funky guys:)#(<- lie.)#in the second one buddy's right sleeve is like that bc they dont have a prosthesis so they tuck it in so it doesnt get in the way#and they dont intend to get a prosthesis btw!#he just doesnt need or want one#at this point they spent most of their life with one arm and he gets by fine!#and also the last time they had a prostetic arm it made him attack/try to kill his friends. so.. theyre not a big fan:/#......#edgy 13yo taka. oh god..#tashi is going to have more white hair than shiro by the time all the kids are adults lol#i love tashi and buddy being stupid toghether<3 two idiots who team up to annoy literally everyone else(except soup. she doesnt mind)

#his one interaction w crow being ''oh its chill i was an adult when i learned i was ur kid so its like whatever''#and then to squirrel/leaf hes just doing this shit#''i am killing her with facts and logic bc she is hysterical and i am calm''#like he is honestly just accusing his aunt of knowingly letting someone get taken over bc ''she was closest''#after shes been exiled and thrown off a cliff and shit and hes like ''um you let that happen this is all your fault actually''#i want him to die in this arc can he pleaseeeee do that i am sick of hearing abt his ass#also he apparently took one of harestars lives on what im assuming is a whim from battle based on the wiki#hmmm huhhhh i thought attacking leaders was bad and justified someone killing that person#interesting!#so cool to know hes learned jack shit from oots and his quirky trait is just being a murderer with 0 narrative consequence#besides ''some people get mad and hes so sad that the fandom claims the mourning are stupid idiots who deserved to watch their loved one die#echoed voice

cid gently kisses nero’s cheek. for valentione’s, then he goes back to ignoring him.
After Nero had shown up at the Ironworks out of the blue (his excuse was that he was bored, but the more correct answer was that he missed being able to more directly annoy Garlond and Co., and Jessie would still cut him paychecks for what she called 'comedic value'), he set right about inserting himself into proceedings despite pretty much everyone's pleas and threats.
It's important to feel like a valuable part of the team, and what's more valued than being better than everyone else to motivate them to try harder! Nothing. Exactly. You're welcome, Cid. Now, ask no further questions about Nero returning the absolutely exorbitant "tip"-- reasonable compensation-- he withdrew from Cid's funds after the Omega venture. Speaking of Omega, he's currently on a venture to recreate the Omega automaton that Biggs and Wedge had created, though with less sentience and more adaptable weapon capabilities.
He can tell Cid's footsteps from the sound of them, which is normal and the correct, average amount of attention to pay to your stupid rival. Nero intends to make Cid behold his artistic supremacy, the vision and mechanical skill required to make a tiny yet operable laser gun atop Omega's diminutive frame, and even gets the first few syllables of such out of his mouth.
The train of thought derails fantastically. Destruction on the tracks. Cid could probably be given a medal for actually putting Nero at a loss for words, even if it is a short-lived affliction. "Nh-- gweh-- what?"
Yet no explanation is forthcoming! Cid just leaves! He doesn't even turn his head at Nero's question! What was that about! Gross! Disgusting! Does Garlond think Nero's standards are so low as to accommodate him?! Nero's rival?! His motivation and favourite person to trouble and vex and--
Look, the moral of the story is that Nero's standards are obviously above where Cid not-even-that-great-is-he Garlond stands! And yet! There he goes, casual as you please! "Garlond!" Not even a flinch from him. The audacity! Nero's already scrambling up and out of his chair to pursue this cad. "Explain yourself! Not even a 'hello' or 'incredible contraption, my friend, you are certainly the best engineer on the star, better even than I'? At least buy me dinner!" It's the first step, Garlond!!!!! Wine and dine him first, you useless-----
#im about to go on a tangent thats just making fun of nero hold on#so theres this one tweet thats like#'ship where they made a promise as kids that if theyre not married at x age theyll marry each other#except one of them was always in love with the other so they kept trying to get in the way of their dating life'#and thats cidnero except instead of 'one of them was in love with the other' nero just is like#I REFUSE TO LET GARLOND WIN AGAINST ME!!! and spent so much energy trying to secretly bomb cids romantic life to keep him from Winning#that he never actually got around to the 'he has to date someone to get married to them first' part of the deal#wakes up one day realizing now the deal requires him and cid to marry like WHAT??? HUH>??? HOWD THAT HAPPEN??? you did this you idiot#thats a really long tangent ive just been thinking about it every time cidnero comes up bc only nero would be that stupid#nero voice I CANT BELIEVE THERE ARE CONSEQUENCES TO MY ACTIONS#ic : nero#ichoric#asks#i like writing nero because its just dez makes jokes: the saga#sometimes when i write nero the spirit takes me and the spirit is 'the joy of mocking adult men who should be better than this'
