obsessed w jeanee Actually. she drove hours in the middle of the night for him. she organised a heist for him. she blackmails a university for him. she was willing to break into the nest w brute force for him. she was willing to rob a hardware store to do it. she seriously contemplates climbing over barbed wire fences to get to him. she handles diversions and distractions with grace for him. she has the invasive curiosity to want to know all abt his little knick knacks. she resorts to violence when someone tries to stop her from getting to him. she prays for him. she talks to him softly when the only feeling in the room is rage. she pushes his hair out of his face. she checks his pulse obsessively. YEAH………… are we all seeing this rn

its so wonderful to me too because like this is RENEE. renee, who is a bad person trying very hard to be good. there was a post going around maybe a month ago how empathy for everyone circles back around into empathy for no one i can't remember any of the specifics but it rlly did something for how i see renee because shes a protector. its defensive. its safe. she knows the limits, she knows the point of no return because shes been to rock bottom and clawed her way up but she's willing to do whatever she needs to to get jean out of the nest.

there is a big difference between cradling allison when andrew hurts her vs actively threatening eau, going on the offense to make sure jean leaves safe with her. there's something insane to me abt how a few months of texting and calling jean could push her to that point, the point where she needed to be talked down off the ledge before the plan was more natalie than renee because this was something she absolutely could not fuck up. she knew that her efforts would be worthless if she didn't create a plan that couldn't backfire, because the punishment for jean trying to leave and failing (and i'm sure that message to renee would be used against him) or leaving and coming back would be 1000x worse than whatever they could do to him from a distance.

and then when she has him in his arms and she knows he's going to be safe, he'll be okay as long as she can get him to abby, she can let herself be kind again.

Toby and Renee’s wedding - part 1

[imninahchan]

Nina, estou obcecada na Renée Rapp e na música not my fault. Pode fazer um hc inspirado na música? esse trecho é tudo: Kiss a blonde; Kiss a friend; Can a gay girl get an amen?

(literalmente a loira de sua escolha embora pareça meio óbvio a regina george perfeita)

───── 𓏲╰ ᰔᩚ ·# [🍥] : RENEÉ RAPP + ( ? )

você não sabe exatamente como esse assunto começou, mas todo mundo na mesa já está há uns dez minutos falando sobre a complexidade das loiras e coisas parecidas;

escuta cada obscuridade, porém a loira ao seu lado é capaz de, sozinha, chamar mais a sua atenção. Gosta do sorriso largo, todos os dentinhos se destacando. Sem falar, claro, do senso de humor com piadinhas que fazem qualquer um dos caras babacas nessa mesa se revirarem sobre a cadeira;

eu gosto de loiras, você diz, quase num sussurro, mas ainda atrai os olhares. RENEÉ te olha, com aquele sorrisinho, é mesmo?

você faz que sim, dando de ombros, o que eu posso dizer, gentlemen prefer blondes...

ah, então você é um gentlemen?

você ajeita a manga da blusa nos pulsos, como se ajustasse um terno, nenhuma das minhas garotas reclamou...

muitas loiras?

no timing perfeito, você sorri, de canto. Não. Quer ser a primeira?

e aí todo mundo está brincando, zoando com vocês, com o flerte ousado. Muito barulho e risos pra cá e pra lá. Meu deus, as gays não podem mais se divertir, é?

ehhhm question time /nf

for the "ppl trapped in a train that never stops" thing where were they supposed to be going? Do you know how many people or main characters you want there specifically? if so what are they like/do they have backstories? how are uehhm .what do they do abour it

OH IM SO GLAD U ASKED ABT THAT ONE SPECIFICALLY

im thinking each of them were going somewhere different. but the one thing that connects them all is strong emotions of some sort. specifically like passion. someone who just got a bad call and is now super angry, someone whos sad, someone whos happy, someone whos scared, ect. and at some point they find the other people in their train are gone, and theyre in a new, much older looking train iwth different ppl.

i havent worked out each individual character but we do have hte conductor, who appears to be the youngest character there. she looks about 14 or so, and greets everyone casually. shes a strange little thing, and the only consistency is that shes brutally honest about the train. about herself? not so much. they dont even know her name. so they call her Conductor.

the main characters i have for now are all unnamed, so im giving htem temporary names. but theres a few college students, a girl (Jessie) who lost someone close to her and was ont he train to go to a funeral, and a boy (Rene) whos twin brother went missing a while back and was never found, hed been on a train back home for his college vacation. and then theres a girl (Rhea) and her guy friend, (Ivan) both of which had an argument on the train. theyre the only pair who know each other. therye also not. doing that great LMAO

i was thinking of having a doctor (Abel) as well, whod gotten on a train home after losing a patient, a mother (Mia) whod just divorced her husband, ect. nothings set in stone tho.

there are other ppl on the train too, not all of them innocent, and not all of them good people. but each of them want to escape the train. and the best way to do that is to get to the conductor's car and stop it themselves but thats easier said than done. the conductors not jsut gonna let them leave, yknow?

and ofc strangers dont always get along very well, especially when they were already riled up abt smth before getting there

[moonlight-moondrops]

Date with Renee and her love letter! She's adorable :3

[s41g3]

harvest moon, renee and toby's 4 heart event did you know toby's eyes are green?

[beveragelover]

the dumb thing about getting older is that i still automatically assume everyone is older than me bc i am 12 basically and that assumption is becoming less and less true

[clay-cuttlefish]

Into Infinite Frontier. It's bad in here.

The Next Batman: Second Son

I really don't like the direction this takes Renee, it's a nasty piece of character regression, but I like Jace and the Fox family drama enough that it's not too bad of a time.

Jace gets deadnamed constantly. He's not trans, but he's repeatedly referred to by his birth name in order to upset him and because his family won't make an effort/think he's making a big deal out of nothing, so...

It starts almost promising, like Renee's seriously considering if she's willing to put herself back into policing to prevent whoever else might become the Commissioner from doing something worse, but nope. She's just On Board With Cop Shit again.

Sure, she's ~conflicted~ about being the Commissioner, but it always feels like either a worse version of how she developed in Gotham Central or like a completely different character wearing her face.

Hadiyah my friend Hadiyah. She hasn't had much room to breathe, but I have a lot of thoughts about how she could develop, ideally once Renee gets her development back.

Batman #107-110

It's frustrating. This is meant to be a rough patch for her, Bruce tells her not to forget how to ask the right questions and she's obviously conflicted, but that never gets developed properly. She just gets More Cop about it.

It hasn't actually been that long, but two years where she's regularly showing up and it sucks feels a lot worse than two years mostly offscreen.

DC Pride 2021

I wish I lived in a world where this story had an impact on canon. A former defence attorney turned city councilwoman is exactly the kind of love interest who could anchor a longer Question story.

I Am Batman #0

Hi Hadiyah <333

Justice League #68-71

Genuinely what the hell is Vic's job in Checkmate, other than Oliver Queen nepo hire.

He talks but he's barely a character. Literally just hanging out.

I Am Batman #2

This is the moment where Renee goes from "a bad job at following up on her character development being restored" to a full on "she would not fucking say that".

Fear State

God it's just so frustrating. I don't know what else to say. It's frustrating and miserable.

"You don't know how to turn the clock back, and you're too afraid to let it tick forward." Scarecrow means this as a criticism of Renee the person, but I think it's a better criticism of the writers. She had a way forward, she had connections and places to go, but no.

I Am Batman #4-5

I Am Batman is at its best when it's doing soap opera drama. The cop shit sucks, the action scenes are solid but not super notable, I am here for the Fox family imploding while Jace rams headfirst into danger.

This is an unhinged sentence but I wish Lucius had spent more time conflicted about saving his kid? He's a massive hypocrite when it comes to Jace, so I buy that he'd be quick to pivot from going along with murder to backing Jace's efforts, but it's so quick.

I Am Batman #6-10

I like the angle that Jace is a city employee a lot. He lives in a world where Gotham nearly implodes constantly, every spy agency in the world turned evil a couple years ago and it hasn't been fixed yet, and the multiverse is real and frequently in danger, so fuck it superheroics are legal.

Look, I get what they're going for with Strike Force Bat, but the ragtag group of unpopular cops worked for Gotham Central because they were all decent people (by cop show standards).

Hadiyah's been doing the thing where she drops the word Question into every appearance so far, but it's particularly obvious here.

Honestly the thing that keeps me from being completely sold on Hadiyah (aside from how bad the handoff is) is that she's already good at Question things. She's reflective, good at investigation, aware of her relationships and how they affect her, etc, which means there's less room for her to grow and find meaning. I think there are a lot of good angles for how wearing the mask will change her, but I'm not sure the story has one yet.

Damian: Father said to stop smoking on patrol.

Jason: He's not the boss of me.

Jason: *plucks one of Damian's hairs*

Damian: Hey!

Jason: Relax, it's just one hair. You might wanna stand away 'cause of the smoke though.

Jason: *strikes the hair like a match and lights his cigarette*

Alfred: Master Damian, I need to make a quick call. Can you make sure the water is ready for tea? m

Damian: Of course.

Damian: *holds the teapot*

*teapot starts boiling*

———————

Selina: Ooh, it seems like you're running a fever.

Damian: No, I am always like this. The doctor says it's the pent-up rage inside a pint-sized body.

———————

Tim: You're like a microwaved Hot Pocket—burning on the outside, ice cold on the inside.

Damian: Thank you for the compliment. I think you do a splendid job of having teeth.

This is one of my favorites I've written, so I'm just bringing it back around!

Junpei Yoshino - Water Fountain

Water Fountain ~ Alec Benjamin

✧･ﾟ: * Character/Pairing ~ Junpei Yoshino x gn!reader ~

✧･ﾟ: * Content ~ JJK Season 1 Spoilers (I guess? If you know Junpei you probably know what I’m talking about but just to be safe), childhood friends pining, bullying implication, character death ~

✧･ﾟ: * Type ~ Songfic, oneshot, angst ~

✧･ﾟ: * Author’s Note ~ I feel like Junpei has an Alec Benjamin vibe, so this ended up happening. I love him with my whole heart, and we were robbed. ~

He told me that he loved me by the water fountain

He told me that he loved me and he didn't love them

And that was really lovely 'cause it was innocent

But now he's got a cup with something else in it

“Hey, Yoshino!” Dark eyes looked up at you, the panic in them fading as Junpei recognized you. He nods in acknowledgement, before moving over and motioning at the empty space. Since you started at Satozakura, the two of you haven’t had very similar schedules, but each year you find a break where the two of you meet up near the fountain, and since this semester you have the same free period, you both hang out and work together there. The two of you have been close since middle school, but he’s gotten a lot quieter over the years.

No matter how he seems at school, when the two of you are together he lightens up so much, rambling about whatever horror franchise just came out, or laughing at your stupid jokes. It’s a lot quieter there than the other common areas, which makes it an ideal place for the introverted goth, and he can usually loosen up a lot more when the two of you stay there. But even as removed as you were from the rest of the students, his eyes keep flicking toward any movement or noise, almost as if he was ready to take off at any moment. After a stray cat running by nearly sent him into the fountain, you decide to bring it up “Rough day Jun? You seem pretty jumpy today…”

His hand rushes to adjust his bangs again, before sighing, “Nothing outside of the normal school crap. Nothing to worry about, really. Let’s just focus on the paper, okay?” He says the last part softly, almost to himself more than you. You smile softly and nod, letting a few minutes pass before saying “You know you can talk to me, right? If you ever need anything” A confused expression passes over his face, and he looks away, “I’ll keep that in mind.” You meant to keep the conversation going, you’re worried about him, but he seemed to put a stop to that there.

After working in silence, not unusual for the two of you, Junpei looks up at you, saying “You’re the only one here that I care about, Y/N, the rest of them are worthless.” His face flushes pink when he realizes what he said, but your heart flutters when he does, almost so much you miss the darker tone to the rest of his sentence. You blurt out the first “I really care about you Junpei…” and hearing it come out of your own mouth just makes you blush more, as well as his pink turn cherry red, and so you hurriedly try to cover with a “of course I do, we’ve been friends for so long of course I would. Care about you I mean. It’s only natural after so long, right?” He starts to slide his stuff back into his bag, “Yeah, right. We… should probably start getting to class, so, I’ll see you later.” You put your things away, and start walking across campus, mind racing with the near confession that you just admitted to your best friend.

It's getting kind of blurry at a quarter-past-ten

And he was in a hurry to be touching her skin

He's feeling kind of dirty when he's dancing with him

Forgetting what he told me by the water fountain

-Hey, I heard about the murder, weren’t you going to that showing? Are you okay?-

-Yes, I’m fine Y/N, it was pretty gruesome, but those assholes deserved it anyway.-

-What do you mean?-

-Nothing, sorry that’s probably too much, respect for the dead and all.-

You get to the fountain first today, which isn’t surprising considering the last few days he’s been showing up late, if at all. About halfway through the reading the two of you were going to do together, you feel a tap on your shoulder and look up to see Junpei staring back at you. “Hey, there’s the legendary Junpei Yoshino, it’s been so long, glad you could grace me with your presence” a dramatic bow where you’re seated, before moving your bags to clear a space for him.

He chuckles a little at your teasing “I know I know, it’s been a crazy couple of days.”

“Yeah, you’re sure that you’re okay? I know the stuff you’re into, but seeing…something like that could really mess with anyone’s head.” A slight smile spreads across his face, before he sets out his own copy, flipping to the section you’re reading “Nah, I’m really doing okay, I even met someone who can help me deal with it all.” This takes you back a little, Junpei doesn’t reach out for help often, but if he’s getting help with all he’s been through you’re more than happy for him.

The two of you spend the rest of the session joking about the awful text you’re supposed to be analyzing, before heading back to your classes. He doesn’t show up at the fountain for a few days after that, and from there he starts missing school altogether.

And he knows that she shouldn't listen

And that he should be with me by the water fountain

-Hey, Junpei! I know you’ve been busy lately, but can we meet at the fountain today? I gotta talk to you about something.-

-Sure, I’ll be there-

True to his word, you see Junpei at the fountain during the free period, but he’s not in his school uniform, meaning he skipped again. You’re not surprised at this point, he’s missed more days than he’s attended in the last two weeks, but what does worry you is the bags under his eyes. They’re even more pronounced than they usually are, and he seems quiet, but in a different way, “You doing okay? You seem off, and you keep skipping school,”

He cuts you off, “Yes, I’m fine. Just really busy lately. But what did you need to talk about?” He’s more on edge than you thought from texting him. “Just wanted to tell you that the school trip is coming up next week, but since you’ve missed so many days I don’t think you’ll be able to go.” “I couldn’t make it anyway. Why?” you sigh softly “Yeah, I, figured, just wanted to say that I’m going. I’ve always wanted to see the area, so,” His eyebrows furrow as he looks you over, before quickly scanning the school grounds, “So you’ll be gone? How long will you be?” “Two weeks.” “Fine. That’s all you wanted right? Let me know that you’re leaving?”

No, it wasn’t all you wanted, you wanted to catch up, you wanted to check on him, you wanted to tell him- no, you’re not going there now. “Yeah. That’s it” For as abrupt as he shut you down, you could see his eyes starting to water, so you gently pull him in for a hug “I really won’t be long Jun, and I can text you the whole time, yeah?” He stays quiet for a minute, until his breath steadies a bit, “Yeah, sorry, I just, miss getting to spend more time with you. When things were normal.” Your questions can wait, you don’t want to leave on a sour note, and if his erratic behavior continues, pushing for answers might not go well. “I do too Junpei, but once I get back we can get back to normal, okay?” You let go at this, and start to pack up, he nods and starts to walk off, as you suspected, away from the school, while you head to class.

He couldn't be at home in the night time because

It made him feel alone, but at that time he was too young

I was too young

I should've built a home with a fountain for us

The moment that he told me that he was in love too young

I was too young

You’re on the last few days of your trip, and while he seems to have been too busy to text for the most part, you two have been texting about your days. Well, most of it was just you talking about yours, he doesn’t tell you much of what he’s been doing, but that’s not uncommon anymore.

-I met someone new today. He’s really nice, funny too. He pantsed Sotomura when I was going to get in trouble for attendance, and we both ran.-

You chuckle at this, getting eyebrows from your roomates, before you reply:

-He sounds hilarious Jun, that’s awesome that you met someone though! I’ll have to meet him when I come back!-

He’s finally meeting more people, you guess being gone for two weeks can have that effect on someone. You’re happy for him, if not a little jealous, since Ms. Yoshino’s cooking is delicious and you haven’t been over to Junpei’s house in forever.

And if he ever goes back to the water fountain

The handle will be broken and the rust set in

But my hand, it will be open and I'll try to fix it

My heart, it will be open and I'll try to give it

Now I'm grabbing his hips, and pulling him in

Kissing her lips, and whispering in her ear

You walk up to the fountain, and Junpei is standing there waiting for you, he takes your hand as you sit, and you two talk about your trip, what he’s done while you were gone, cracking jokes, and listening to his laugh. But before you know it, his arm wraps around you, softly pulling you towards him, and you lean into it. Your lips brush his, they’re so soft, and his arms are so warm. You pull him into you, holding each other in a warm embrace as you softly kiss.

Suddenly he pulls back, and looks at you with a worried expression, “I’m sorry”, and your eyes flutter open.

You realize you aren’t back at school, you’re just in a hotel room, and you still haven’t seen Junpei in weeks. Your heart is racing as you push your face into the pillow, blushing deeply thinking about your dream. His lips, his touch, it almost felt real. This isn’t the first time you’ve dreamed about your best friend this way, and it’s not like that’s the only time you think about becoming more. You open your phone to check the time, 4:28am, and you see the stupid selfie you took, your silly face and his smile behind his hands. You put your phone down and sigh, you don’t know how much longer you can keep pining like this, “I’m going to tell him when I get back.”

And I know that it's only a wish

And that we're not standing by the water fountain

He couldn't be at home in the night time because

It made him feel alone but at that time he was too young

I was too young

-I’m sorry, but I have to do this-

-What for, Jun? You okay?-

-read-

-I’ll be home tomorrow, we can talk then, right?-

-delivered-

That message freaks you out, he’s been so on edge lately, so you try to call him. No response. You call again, leaving a quick message about how you’re getting worried, before trying to call his mom. Also no response. That’s when you call him again. As worried as you are, you can’t do much from here. If he’s not picking up, all you can do is wait until you get back to talk to him in person.

You get back into town on monday, so even though you know it’s not likely, you hope to see him back at school on tuesday. At least if he swings by the fountain to let you know he’s alright. But even as you first step in the door, something feels off. Ito even mumbles some sort of apology as you stop by Sotomura’s office to ask if Junpei has been to class. He hasn’t, and Sotomura gives some excuse of him having dropped out or something after some event. He doesn’t want to elaborate.

I should've built a home with a fountain for us

The moment that he told me that he was in love too young

-I just wanted to say that I love you, I have for a long time Junpei, and I really want to see you again.-

“No, I can’t say that. It’s too much pressure,” you think, trying to decide what to send to your childhood friend after that worrying message.

-I want to see you again, maybe we could go to coffee?-

Nah, that’s too casual, it’s been a month you can’t just, spring it on him like that.

-I hope you’re okay Junpei, I miss you. If you’re ever back around the school, we could meet by the fountain like we used to!-

That will work, you just have to send it. A deep breath before you hit the button, and you slip your phone back into your bag before going back to class.

-Message delivered-

I was looking through Nora's blog and this little exchange between Andrew and Renee has me deceased—

'These days it was hard to tell which one of the strikers he was looking at'

'He wasn't used to sharing the spotlight in Andrew's tiny world'

''Til death do we part, hm?'' 'It wasn't a yes, but it wasn't a no' 🤨🏳️‍🌈?
