World’s Greatest Detective fails to correctly identify his children 😭

[aethiriarts]

Remembering that one embarrassing thing you did 50 years ago.

[laughingcatwrites]

As a reminder that good exists out there, a coworker recently confessed to me that he found out his child is questioning their identity (kid's gender redacted for this post). The kid is keeping it from him, so he can't say anything to them or show that he knows, but he's doing his best to get mentally prepared and educated so that he'll be ready whenever his kid does feel comfortable enough come to him.

For context, this guy is a big, bulky middle aged dude who loves sports and typical outdoor "manly" activities. As his coworker and friend, I know he's a kind and sweet teddy bear of a person, but his kid probably views him as a stern, authoritarian figure, the way most teenagers view their parents. His family lives in a conservative area, so I'm sure between that, their dad's looks and interests, and the fact that their dad is a Figure of Authority, the kid is worried that they won't be accepted.

But you know what? When he found out about his kid, the first thing he did was reach out to his closest queer friend and ask for resources for parents of questioning children. His biggest fears are that his kid will be bullied or discriminated against and won't feel comfortable enough to be themself. His second action was to find himself a mentor in another parent who went the same situation (kid coming out in a conservative town). The other person is preparing him for some of the struggles his kid may face and the fights he may need to take on as a parent to make sure his kid is safe and treated well.

Something I want to emphasize for people focused on language as the primary method of allyship is that when we spoke, he used some outdated terms and thoughts about gender and sexuality. That does not make him bad. These were the terms and thinking used about questioning teenagers when he was growing up and he never needed to learn more current ones. But now that he does have that need, he's throwing himself in head first because that's his kid and he's darn well going to make sure that his kid feels welcomed and has a safe place to be themselves even if they never come out to him.

@barrenstars said: it was her decision to leave mikey for izana, a decision no one should have to make. but her family is difficult, her life is a mess. even now that she's back with izana in a nice apartment with everything she could ever want; her heart hurts. each time izana leaves she fears he won't come back, like he had last time. emma fears for mikey, for draken - for toman. how was mikey doing? had she hurt him terribly? it all got a bit much sometimes, so when emma was alone, she cried. the first tear rolled down her cheek the minute the front door closed after izana left, then time was irrelevant as she sunk to the floor by the hallway, curled up into herself. tears turned into racing trails, soft crying turned into full-blown wails, and she couldn't quite stop her body from shaking violently. she was the worst person, wasn't she? the sounds of her own pathetic sobs are what keep her from slipping away from reality, but even so, she doesn't quite hear the sound of the front door opening over the thumping of her heart and her strained breathing. how long had she been here for...?

   Izana unlocks the door and steps into the apartment to be immediately greeted with the sight of Emma sobbing to herself in the hallway. And…he doesn’t quite know what to do. The door is locked and undamaged and he sees neither glass nor blood anywhere. So it can’t be that she’s injured herself, unless she’d left and come back. But it doesn’t seem like she’s moved in a very long time. It leaves Izana with nothing to go on and doubt that she’ll be honest about it.  

   Had it been anyone else, Izana would have either left or simply walked past them, his coat fluttering in the wake of his movement. They could deal with their problems themselves. Perhaps a couple might be lucky enough in their standing of favoritism with the king that they might earn a hand resting on their shoulder as he crouches beside them. But Izana was not comforter giver. He was built for cruelty over kindness, and what he should do for Emma remained a mystery. Did she know the truth? Would it make her withdraw should he attempt to help right now? No….No, he’s pretty sure that only the filth and the dead know the truth. Emma is neither of those categories. 

   “  Did something happen?  “  Izana finally speaks as he closes the door behind him and crouches down in front of her.  “  Do I need to kill someone?  “ It’s his own brand of attempting to comfort – blood-soaked but well intended. Violence was never far from care no matter how people tried to delude themselves otherwise. His is just closer than most. “ Did someone hurt you? Say something? I'll make sure they never say another word if they did. " Even if it was through text, Izana had his ways of finding out and enforcing his will. What kind of king would he be if someone could simply hide from him behind a screen?

   He stays stagnant for a moment before lifting a hand to gently run it through her hair in an effort to soothe without demand if she'd rather not be held.  "Emma....It's okay...It'll be okay..."

Scenes/Things in Supernatural that genuinely don't make sense to me if Dean was straight:

The confession booth scene.

Sam just rolling with the fact that Dean's siren is a guy while still thinking sirens infect people through sex.

Dean being flustered by several men: Gunner Lawless, Aaron, Doctor Sexy, etc.

All the parallels between Destiel and other couples. (A big one being "last night on Earth" bc how do you do that accidentally.)

Having all the gay jokes be on Dean instead of Sam.

Paralleling Sam meeting his childhood celebrity crush with Dean meeting Gunner Lawless.

The boner Dean got when Cas cleaned up.

Dean gulping after Cas does an impression from a Western movie.

Charlie, a lesbian, calling Castiel "dreamy."

The way Mary looks at Dean and Cas when they hug.

Dean wondering why everyone assumes he's gay, while Sam not caring.

The logic that Charlie can't flirt with guys because she's only attracted to women, but then having Dean flirt with the guy for her.

Dean seeming disappointed when learning that Aaron's flirting was fake.

The amount of time Dean and Cas spend staring at each other.

Dean canonically having an orgy with Crowley.

A woman saying that she knows when someone's pining for someone else to Dean, just for us to learn that Dean was never in love with Amara.

The set design and script choices that lead to a cross in the background while Dean said "I do." to Cas after he came back to life.

That time when Dean wanted to say something and Cas was like, "It's okay, I heard your prayer." But Dean still looked like he wanted to say something important.

Amara: [about Dean] "I can see inside your heart. Feel the love you feel. Except, it’s cloaked in shame.” (Thanks @adeptune01 I honestly forgot about this one.)
