Gally hides a lot of his panic attacks and nightmares that he got after he went through the Changing in a desperate attempt to be liked again in the Glade

He was kind of universally hated in the books, apparently becoming extremely unlikeable after he got Stung

which is honestly so sad. What he saw drove him slightly insane and he couldn’t handle it and shut down.

[stunie]

HEY HEY hope ure doing good!! i saw u mentioning ume's silly shirts and it made me think of how ume would 100% be one of the guys who wears "I♥️MY GF" shirts or matching his and hers shirts with his s/o 😭😭 just ume and his silly tshirts is so cute

oh nia ): this. thinking about him all excited the night before his lil netflix date with you. he saw the shirts through the shop window earlier on his way home— and five minutes later, he was already out the door with the bags in his arms. he had his new outfit for tomorrow draped over his chair hours ago (he gets really excited for dates so he likes to prepare everything early), but he just can’t seem to stop looking at it. he keeps imagining how you’ll react— picturing the look on your face when you see the “i love my girlfriend!” in huge letters across the top. and… just maybe he could try and convince you to put a kiss mark on it too. the whole thing plays out in his head over and over until he’s finally falling asleep with a soft smile tugging at his lips, arms wrapped tightly around his pillow in hopes that tomorrow can come just one second faster.

[dimiclaudeblaigan]

nah but like

they're "seiros lapdogs" because they're fighting back against the people who attacked them completely unprovoked??? also because it so happens that thales is at garreg mach so they have to go there to reclaim the area to defeat him???

i just hate this because it's just perpetuating things about faerghus and its people that just aren't true. it frames it like they jumped into the war willingly for the church and that they're only here for the church. like nah buddy, it's not faerghus' fault you're out here fighting to protect thales and ludwig.

it also is batshit to me how he and leopold are fighting to stop faerghus from advancing but like... they know what's happening to the empire and that edelgard isn't even calling the shots anymore, yet they still stupidly fight for the very person who is literally razing their country and burning their villages. they know the empire is in shambles and that the kingdom isn't targeting them and is specifically aiming for gm to get it back from who? thales; who, mind, at this point is in his real form and not posing as arundel anymore. everything is laid out plainly, but they still act like faerghus is the bad guy.

but yeah, okay. faerghus BaD for defending themselves, fighting back, finding out who is behind all the puppeteering and heading to take him out. sure, that makes them seiros lapdogs. like what are you, an agarthan mouthpiece??? may as well be like yeah you go retreat and leave you agarthan lapdog. if they don't realize it's Someone Else in charge of course, then ludwig lapdog works fine too.

and it sucks because other than this shit, i like waldemar just fine as a character. it's just like, it feels like they forced someone to have to stick in that final faerghus BaD insult before the grand finale so they just randomly picked someone to remind us that faerghus is Always Wrong as long as they continue to fight back and prevent being attacked in the future.

waldemar here is just basically ag caspar. fighting and risking his life for thales, who is destroying the empire and basically holding the emperor hostage. if the writing here had any decent plot points, they would've all stopped and have been like hey wait, shouldn't we be fighting to get our emperor back? why are we stopping these guys from killing the people who are destroying this country?

and like, they literally went from siding with ludwig during the insurrection to siding with edelgard in this timeline to... jumping immediately back to ludwig as soon as he was at the top of the food chain (thales notwithstanding). as soon as the person in charge changes, they jump ship immediately; then of course get mad that the people they attacked are coming after them... and fighting them as they defend the very people who are letting adrestia become a literal, physical ruin.

it really just tells me that these people don't care about adrestia itself, but status, power and wealth. they don't care about the country itself as long as they're doing well. that's like, the only thing i can get from still fighting with/for ludwig/thales. the fact that they just fight for ludwig again as soon as edelgard is out of commission is also pretty gross to me. they have no loyalty at all.

and it's like, i want to like waldermar and leopold, but they come across as just selfish, entitled and only there for their own asses to be covered. and i get that - that is a realistic take on politicians, but the fact that the game regularly loops back around to faerghus BaD despite that and despite portraying these people as opportunistically selfish is like... what are they even trying to write??

[running-in-the-dark]

I'm still not feeling great. now one side of my face also hurts lol, it's just one thing after another, this body sucks

(sideblog woes but there's the link for you) anyway in the vid they talk about going over to each other's houses to have dinner and things and while that is a delicious example of their codependence i love it bc through an rpf lens there is definitely some old man ******* going on. they can have the dilfs and each other.

(someone else mentioned kept boys which i could write an essay on but i fear being Perceived™️)

anyway if you have anything to add to this please do, if not ignore me and i will hide under a rock until the stress-related insanity has worn off and i am a functioning member of society once more 😂

[fionarara]

still randomly remembering that one time i attended the creator of Minecraft's annual house party even though i've never even played that video game lmao and after getting to watch Skrillex dj in such an intimate setting (surreal), we all hung out and he had like a harem of cute girls surrounding him on the couch, haha it seemed super platonic though and he was really respectful,,, literally he was so kind to me and everyone,, by far the nicest celeb i've ever met besides elijah wood.

[noramoons]

today was such a good day actually

[girlivealwaysbean]

man

[godtears]

... Huh.

[brainrotzora]

recent ffxiv livetweeting. spoilers through the end of arr patch quests btw.

[bucketorandomness]

It started with Jason. He wasn't the first to notice, but he was the first to be affected.

It was a joint mission. Drug bust gone sideways, like they tended to out here. Black Mask's men were all armed, and Nightwing was the first to notice that Jason should have been clipped by at least three bullets in the last five minutes. The line of thought was broken as thoroughly as the window Batman crashed through just then as backup, Robin following shortly after.

The mugger scampered away from the alley, leaving behind Red Hood and Danny, neither of which were really likely to become victims had they stayed. "You again? I told you, stay inside at night. The streets aren't safe around here after dark." Maybe they weren't safe for normal people, but Danny was half ghost, and he didn't exactly go putting himself in harm's way on purpose. Not like some people. The guy might be liminal, but he wasn't invincible. Bet he got shot at a lot. Well, hopefully the bullets wouldn't hit very often.

Tim had never slept well. When he was younger, it was the emptiness of that big house that kept him awake. Then, of course, he'd started following Batman and Robin, became Robin, almost died a couple times, and really it isn't a wonder that he struggled to sleep. Usually. What-ifs would plague him, nightmare scenarios worse than Scarecrow could induce, for all that they were brief while he slept.

He noticed the change after Alfred reduced him to decaf during a case. He'd passed out at the computer--after five days instead of three! Personal record! --and woke slowly to the sight of his room at the Manor. That's what clued him in, really. He never woke slowly. Never became aware of the weight of blankets before the warmth or the way his joints felt soft with sleep. Usually, he had too much adrenaline when he woke up to notice more than that he was the only one in the room.

Danny was rushing. He'd forgotten about the time dilation between the Living and Infinite Realms, and now he was running late. Thank the Ancients for coffee, though! Well, coffee he could drink. He laid on the sidewalk where he'd tripped, letting the fresh-- and now empty --cup of Killer Coffee fall from his lax fingers. He had time to wallow. "Hey, uh, you good there?" Was that an angel? "Here. I haven't had any. I can just go back for another one." Ancients bless this stranger! May their caffeine work well and their sleep be restful. Now that he had his coffee, though, he really needed to get a move on.

Dick loved to fly. It was just a fact of his existence. He'd jump, climb, and vault anything he could-- and plenty of things he shouldn't. It meant he had plenty of experience in what his limits were.

That meant he noticed when those limits suddenly seemed to move. He'd made an easy jump the night before and somehow overshot the goal. Staring at the mats in the Wayne gym, he attempted a long jump, just for the fun of it. He ran, leapt, and flew across the mats. Huh. New record. By almost a whole foot. That's kinda weird.

Danny had been free-running when it happened. It was maybe not the most legal place to be doing this, but he'd found a running partner, so it couldn't be too illegal. They'd been having fun, too, until he slipped and found himself dangling instead of outing his powers. "Woah! Watch your step out here. Good thing you had me around, or else you'd be stuck hanging out seven stories up." Yeah, it was honestly kind of embarrassing. Dick sounded like an expert, but it was always nice to have a spotter for the trickier maneuvers. He hoped Dick had a spotter when he wasn't hanging out with Danny.

Damian noticed immediately. It was admittedly a little weird for the local wildlife to just... lead him around. Yes, the others called him a "Disney Princess" when he told them, but after the third dead body and the fourth active drug deal, even they had to admit something was up. It didn't seem particularly harmful, at least, and it was a different creature each time. Still, it concerned some of them.

"The cats around here prefer this brand." Danny looked up at a small child, crouched beside him as they stared under the dumpster. He traded out the cat treats he had been using for the bag the kid held out, and together they coaxed out a mother and her kittens.

Bruce was the last to notice, maybe because it hadn't changed all that much for him. Yes, the shadows were a little darker some nights, but that was simply the weather. The fact that he got the drop on more criminals or scared the Commissioner more often was just because he'd brushed up on some stealth skills. It wasn't because the shadows literally wrapped themselves around him. That was just a figure of speech.

"And now, the Celebrity segment! Our very own Bruce Wayne is starting a new fund for those suffering from systemic issues and is calling for an audit of government branches, saying that if the Justice League has to be transparent, then so should the governments it works for." Well, Danny was all for that. Considering the GIW apparently wasn't a public branch? Well, whoever this Bruce Wayne guy was, Danny hoped his targets never saw him coming.

Dc x Dp prompt

Batfam members doing little nice things for Danny that eventually leads to him asking a few powerful ghosts around to protect them if they could. The batfam is very confused. Who is this “High Prince of the Infinite Realm”, and how did they get on his good side?
