I know majority of people think “haha Nick does stupid shit and Judy has to keep him in control” which don’t get me wrong is a funny trope, but I like to think canonly it’s the opposite.
I’m not saying Judy does stupid shit on purpose or for no reason, but she is very case-focused and will stop at nothing to finish her job, even at the risk of her own safety. Girl puts her life on the line multiple times throughout the movie and arguably if it weren’t for Nick she would’ve ended up dead. He is much more concerned with their safety and making sure they both make it out okay from dangerous situations.
So yeah, Judy is just as capable of putting her life at risk, and Nick is the only one actively keeping her alive

Good news everyone!
I landed a new day job! It's much closer to home and only 4 days a week instead of 5! I should (theoretically) have more free time to do art things that I want! I'll be taking a week off from updates to adjust to the new work schedule (10 hour work days over 8 hour days will take a moment to get used to!), but pkmn-REDIRECT will be back soon!
Thank you for reading along so far! Mari's journey is just beginning, and I'm glad you're all along for it! :D

Goro cupped her cheek, thumb running over the edge of her tight smile before it faded. “In that alley…I thought if you asked me, then I would help. But, you did not ask.” His tone was light, almost wistful. “You smiled and then–“ He released her, gestured gently. “–turned away.” “I didn’t smile.” “You did.” His expression was soft, bittersweet. “It is a not a sight I will soon forget.” In truth the memory was hazy, volatile. There was the moment when she had first seen him, and it had been a little shock, something sharp and inarticulate. Maybe he was right.
the damn things overlap, 7 - some things you do for money
Commission by the incredibly skilled @nananarc
Also as an added bonus the original scene from Valentine's pov:
He fell back, head striking the pavement with a thump. She watched him, chest heaving, one hand on the knife still buried in her shoulder. Blood was roaring through her ears, but everything else was quiet. Cautiously, she crouched down next to his body, transfixed by the sight of him. The ripper had lost consciousness almost immediately, but this one had known what was going to happen.  <C’mon V, gotta keep moving.>   There was a wary note in Johnny’s voice. She resented his presence, but she despised his condescension more. The facile comments, the smug self-righteous air, as though he were a paragon of virtue merely for having promised her something he could not give. It was not enough that he was eating her alive, but he had to exert his control now, dig in his spurs over and over until she did what he wanted. But she did not want what he wanted. <He’s dead.> Exasperation, now. There were two parts of her working along in uneasy tandem, one which regarded him with a cold professional contempt, and the other which wished they could rip him apart into silence The remaining part of her wanted to sit there a while longer, to spite him, but the adrenaline was starting to wear off. She staggered to her feet, leaning heavily on her good leg, and then froze, catching movement at the far end of the alley. <Persistent guard dog, isn’t he?> Even in an untailored button down and cheap slacks Goro cut an imposing figure. It was something in the way he moved that made the animal part of her wary. Recognition of another predator. She felt herself relax as he approached, eyes drawn briefly to the corpse at her feet before his attention returned to her. He was dangerous but he was not her enemy. “V,” he greeted her, evenly. “I wished to talk, but I see that you are busy.” If he was still angry with her she could not find it in his face. He was calm, inscrutable. Possibly he thought she had gone insane. She found she did not want to talk.
the damn things overlap, 3 - washed in the blood

#talked to my credit union about pre-approval for an auto loan. im gonna frow up#tldr; i just started a new job after completely depleting my savings over the last couple months#and my fucking car has decided that NOW is the time it wants to begin its death throws after 17 years & 190k miles#so rather than wait for the engine to explode on the highway or something i'm spending money i don't have#(many thousands of dollars that i will need to borrow. specifically. 🤢)#to shell out for a newer & hopefully more reliable car before winter hits. and then i'm just gonna pray my new income can cover it!!!!!#on one hand i'm excited cuz it'll be the first car i've ever owned that wasn't a shitty hand-me-down with over 150k on it already#and i am absolutely drooooooling over the one i'm gonna test drive tomorrow#but on the other hand. it feels very precarious to take on this amount of debt right now and i'm FREAKING THE FUCK OUT.#i was worrying this morning tha ri was rushing into things and maybe it would be better to try to hold off for a couple months#but then i had to use my own car for work today instead of a fleet vehicle and the engine started displaying Silly Behaviors*#(*RPMs doing whatever they feel like randomly & a noticeable Clunk whenever i'd shift gears)#and since this thing has already cost like 1k in two emergency mechanic trips in the last two months#i feel justified in my decision to just take the L and hope nobody will look at it too closely when assessing its trade-in value 😔#ctxt#money talk cw

What's funny about my window being smashed (but not funny ha ha) is I wouldn't have even noticed until I left for work tomorrow morning if I hadn't gone out to smoke. There was another girl smoking out front and I was like, well this is awkward so I'm gonna go over to my car and pretend to look for something lol. Because that's how awkward I am.
My car is like 50 yards from my building and the broken window is the side facing away from me. So I literally wouldn't have noticed if I wasn't so fucking weird.
And it's been raining for a few hours. So like. Shit fucking sucks but at least I didn't discover it at 6am after it's been raining all night.

Absolutely fascinating hearing people from LA talk about highways. Not tne people into urbanism or whatever, just regular folks. Because they talk about them like people from cities like New York talk about subway lines.
"The area is served by the 5 and the 2"
"You can get there on the 2 or the 5"
One of these sentences is about the Subway in the Bronx. The other is about highways Glendale, California.
Honestly I think that's a good way of pitching transit to cities like LA, as freeways for people.

How do you feel about Highway?
evil. secretive. untrustworthy lil fuck.
But I would be lying if I said he doesnt have respectable qualities. I admire his conviction and the mindset that leads him to defend his home with no mercy. I think if he were to have good opinions perhaps he wouldve been a good asset if not a potential friend.
but I cannot trust him. he makes my skin fucking crawl.
