Sure you could read most of Superbat's interactions as heterosexual but why would you?

[ft-nostalgia]

See I interpret those relationships as Superman being absolutely unflappable. The man will fly into the Cave, catch a stray batarang, and walk past Tim face down in front of the Batcomputer without a blink. He is not fazed.

The least credible part of SuperBat

Bruce Wayne is a single father of 6 (4 if you count like DC does) and most of them are traumatized, sure Clark gets along with Dick, but Dick is like, the good one and he probably would like Cassandra just fine, everyone else? Those disasters your Honor?

Clark: I think your family needs therapy.

Bruce looking at the 3 trained assassins glaring at Clark: My little birds have never done anything wrong ever.

Damn, y'all batflash shippers could not get enough of the "A Better World" episode of Justice League, huh?

[ft-nostalgia]

Does anyone else feel like the Danny Phantom crossover posts are just the new Miraculous Ladybug crossover posts? Like where did you come from and how do I get you off my dash? And I don't have anything against either of these crossovers, but I do not want them.

Sands of Time: Part Three

Blossomed Feelings

Pairing: Kuroo Tetsuro x Fem!OC

Warnings: mentions of death, swearing, mutual pining, all the fluff

A/N: as always, reblogs are super appreciated!

Like every other day when they came in, she was on her break. Today, she was perched in a window in the children's area with her legs drawn up loosely. There was a book in her hand, presumably the same one from a couple of days ago. Hidden safely beneath the tent of her knees was a steaming mug.

Jade's ears perked, her attention momentarily divided when she heard Bokuto, obnoxious as ever, greet her coworkers across the building. She was sure he included an exaggerated wave as well. Her advanced hearing, one of the few bonuses of being Fae, even allowed her to hear Daichi silence Bokuto with a low warning.

"There's a big enough table over there that's free." He was telling the group. She knew exactly which table he was referring to as she'd made sure it was clear before she went on break twenty minutes ago.

With a sigh, she closed her book and stood gingerly so as not to disturb her drink. The study group was her queue that her break was over soon. Still, finishing the chapter sounded real nice.

Nonetheless Jade found herself smiling as she glided through the aisles that were as familiar to her now as her own apartment. Her thoughts were with the oddball company of heroes and heroines from her book. Even preoccupied she nodded politely at the group of boys taking their places at the table.

"Fancy seeing you here again."

"Good afternoon to you too, Kuroo," she replied without stopping. "You all know where to find me if you need help with anything."

Yaku snickered and jabbed his elbow into Kuroo's ribs. "She didn't even bother to look at you."

"Her break's about over," Akaashi defended. "Iwaizumi messaged me a few moments ago, he and Oikawa won't be joining us tonight."

"Good, they can keep that stomach bug away from us then," Daichi grumbled.

"Please, they're probably having their own fun." Kuroo wiggled his eyebrows suggestively.

"I wouldn't put it past them," Akaashi murmured. He turned to Bokuto and gave him a warning glare. "Make sure you actually work on your Maths today. You nearly failed your last test."

For well over an hour Kuroo was able to focus on his studying despite his loudmouth of a friend sitting across from him. Bokuto came along more for the social aspect than anything else. Not that any of them really cared the way Akaashi did, study group was the only chance they had during the week to get together anyway.

With a small groan Kuroo stood. He needed a break to stretch his legs. He wandered the shelves aimlessly, stopping on occasion to read a synopsis or two before continuing on. He really didn't have much free time at the moment, what with midterms starting to ramp up. Still, Kuroo made a mental note of books to read once the workload began to die down.

"-depends on what you're interested in, honestly." He overheard Jade saying. "Let's start off with something simple to help narrow it down. Are you looking for a stand alone story or a series?"

Kuroo, for reasons unknown even to himself, hid two aisles over and listened in on the exchange. Since starting at the nearby university last year he'd learned quickly that Jade was good at her job. Great even. Any time he'd needed help with research or simply pointed in the right direction, she'd been prompt with answers. Sometimes she even went above the call to suggest further material that always seemed to have more information than he'd ever need.

Still it amazed him that in a matter of a few questions Jade was excitedly showing the younger guest a section that would entertain her. "I'm a little older than the intended audience but this series here in incredible. But if you're interested in something a little more magickal - and I don't mean witches and wizards - then I suggest this series just here."

With a faint smile Kuroo turned from the duo to head back to his studying. "Fuck," he hissed when he ran into and nearly knocked over Yaku. "Creepy little shit. What are you doing?"

Yaku glared up at his taller friend with a wicked grin. "If I'm creepy what do you call what you were just doing?" He countered. A quick peek around Kuroo gave Yaku the answer he needed. "Admiring the view?"

Kuroo looked over his shoulder and saw the girl from before already devouring the suggested book. Jade was nowhere to be seen. "She's a bit young for me, don't you think?"

Yaku rolled his eyes. Sometimes he really wondered if Kuroo was, in fact, a total moron. Kuroo's infatuation with the Human girl had become more and more evident over the last year. There were some not so obvious clues, like how he just happened to run into her when he was wandering around, or how he had started zoning out in classes. Then there was the blindingly obvious: watching her like creep from the other aisle while she helped other guests, for example. "Come back to the table," he finally sighed. "I need help with the Biology assignment."

"My time to shine," Kuroo smirked.

"Don't go getting an ego."

"I would never."

Both girls were seemingly non the wiser to what had transpired only two aisles away.

Daichi, Akaashi and Yaku continued to study dutifully while Bokuto successfully managed to distract Kuroo. Jade had only one other guest after the younger girl had left with two new books in hand.

Even with that one person closing time seemed to come a little too soon for Jade. They always did on days the study group came in. She enjoyed listening to their friendly banter and teasing, they were good company and often pulled her into their conversations on slower nights.

Tonight was no different than any other night the group came in. It was closing time and they were still there, sitting at the same table they'd procured from the moment they walked in hours before. However, studying had been thrown out the window some time ago she recalled as she made her way over. Currently they were chatting, all but Bokuto and Yaku, who had fallen asleep.

Propping a hand on the back of Akaashi's chair she sighed, forcing disappointment into her words. "Time for me to lock up guys."

"Is it that time already?" Daichi glanced at his phone before sighing himself and rubbing at his eyes. "Sorry to be a bother again, Jade."

"I tell you every time: you aren't a bother, Daichi," Jade shrugged. "Libraries have always been around for a reason. Apparently a good location for a power nap is one of them." She roused Yaku gently, giving him a warm smile when he blinked up at her. "Closing time sleepy head."

"We'll get out of your hair as soon as we wake Bokuto," Akaashi assured her.

"Take your time, I've got some cleaning to finish up anyway."

Jade turned away but not before catching the mischievous grin on Kuroo's face. Just as she expected, the indistinguishable thud of a dropped stack of books met her ears. "Wake up!"

"Bro!" Bokuto whined. Jade's nose wrinkled at the shout. No matter how much she heard it she would never get used to that term.

"Time to go, Bokuto," Kuroo said without a hint of apology in his voice.

Kuroo waited by the checkout counter for Jade to come out of the back office. Over the past year it had become a sort of habit for him to wait for her while she clocked out and locked the building up for the night. In more than one hundred attempts she had yet to agree to, at the very least, allowing him to walk her to the bus stop. Maybe tonight would be different? There was only one way to know for sure.

"Ready to go, Kuroo?"

"Only if you are!" He replied. A triumphant smile adorned his face when a soft chuckle met his ears. Kuroo clasped his hands, fingers knit together tightly before asking, "Would you like some company on your way home tonight?"

It came as no surprise to Kuroo that she didn't reply right away. She emerged from the back office with the satisfied smile that came from finally being off the clock. "Thank you, but I'll be okay on my own tonight."

Kuroo cocked his head to the side for a moment before nodding. "One of these days you'll say yes."

"You're so sure of yourself, Kuroo." She snickered and ducked her head to hunt for her keys in her bag. "I appreciate the offer as always."

They left the building in comfortable silence. Jade tugged at the building doors, testing the locks before heaving a content sigh. "I saw you looking at some books early," she mentioned casually when they reached the sidewalk. "I can put them on hold for you. If you want, that is."

"Not with midterms in a couple weeks." Kuroo shook his head but smiled down at Jade. "That's very kind of you though."

Jade smirked. "I try my best."

Kuroo fought the urge to wrap his arm around her shoulders. He didn't know it, but she caught the twitch in his fingers. "Get home safe, okay Jade?"

"Don't worry, you'll see me all safe and in one piece on Friday, Kuroo." Jade's smile, highlighted by nearby street lights, brought an unwelcomed heat crawling up his neck.

"Right, well, good night, Jade." He retreated into the shadows quickly before she could see the blush spreading up across his cheeks.

"May sleep find you easily tonight, Kuroo." Jade dipped her head slightly before she herself hurried off in the direction of her bus stop.

Kuroo stared after her until she was out of sight before he sighed and began his journey home. When he stepped into his dorm room he wasn't surprised to see Kenma poking feverishly at the buttons of his video game. They had intrigued him from the moment he'd laid eyes on them.

Kenma's elf ears were poking through his hair, the only sign that he was no longer holding his Humanoid form. Kuroo received a murmured greeting from his long time friend as he removed his shoes.

"You missed out," he told Kenma.

"Unlikely."

Kuroo chuckled at that as he made his way into their shared room to change. As he did, he shifted with a sigh of satisfaction. It was only in their shared dorm room or when they were home visiting their folks that he and Kenma could safely shift back to their Fae forms.

"The Solstice Festival is coming up," Kuroo reminded his friend.

"Oh." Came the reply. Kenma's attention was barely pulled from his video game. Kuroo said no more on the subject, knowing full well that when the time came Kenma would leave the Human entertainment behind and return home for the Festival.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Jade's heart was racing and not only because she was running. Had it been a trick of the light or had he been blushing just before she left? She supposed either were possible, even with the street lights the lighting wasn't favorable, and she was nearly a foot shorter than him so the angle was weird too. She tried not to dwell on it too much.

She didn't want to get too close to him this time around. She brushed off his advances, his attempts at getting closer, as best as she could but her job didn't allow for blatant ignoring of guests, so it was difficult. But she didn't want her heart broken. Not again.

Tears glistened in her eyes as she stood beneath the light of the bus stop. She dried them before they could fall; before they could be seen. In all her years on Earth, why was it a Human that had to come along and capture her heart?

When the bus arrived it only had a handful of occupants. Given the time of night this was to be expected and allowed Jade her pick of the crop as far as where to sit for her journey home. She hugged her knees tight to her chest when she sat, her temple leaning against the cool glass of the window at her side. Normally she would read, but she knew if she opened her book the pages would remain unturned, for try as she might, her mind raced with memories of the past. Of the wild laugh that sent the butterflies in her stomach soaring. That almost there smile that had found her time and time again over the centuries.

As much as she wanted to, Jade suppressed the desire to shift back into her Fae form as soon as her door was locked behind her. Showers were much easier without the wings getting in the way. So it wasn't until she stepped from her bathroom half an hour later that she released the invisible thread of thought that kept her Humanoid form in place.

Okay I'm suddenly enamored with the idea that Jason is a reflexive liar. I do this thing sometimes (now that I'm aware I'm better at catching it) where someone asks me a simple question I know the answer to, but I also know the answer will lead to this whole drawn out thing that I don't want to deal with, so I just lie. Often I'll immediately be like, "Sorry, that's not true. Don't know why I said that" because my brain sensed conflict and just dipped.

Jason: It’s always better to lie than have a complicated discussion.

I know they're not going to do this, but I really hope they actually finish up the storylines they didn't get to finish in Legends in the final season of Flash. mostly because I'm mad they got another season when my babies got Booster Gold and then CANCELLED

[ft-nostalgia]

So I started rewatching The Van Gogh Job and was saying (to myself) how I was so excited for a roller derby episode, but it isn't really. Which means we can still steal a roller derby! Put it on the list, someone!

[ft-nostalgia]

This show would actually be a great time to mention him, since Kamala literally says, "It's not usually the brown girls from Jersey who save the world." But like? Sam is a Black man from New Orleans and he's Captain freaking America. That whole Flag Smashers final confrontation was televised. I feel like Sam should be her second favorite Avenger.

I haven’t watched Ms. Marvel yet so correct me if i’m wrong, but based on gifs from the Avenger con scene….why does it seem like no one in any phase 4 project that takes place after TFATWS knows or acknowledges that Sam is Captain America now?? I get remembering Steve of course, but like why would they put his shield on the statue of liberty as if they don’t still have a Captain America? Why isn’t there anyone dressed in Sam’s suit at the Avenger con? Why does no one even mention it in any phase 4 project?? It’s driving me crazy. (also still noticing Bucky’s clear exclusion which is sad since before Winter Soldier, he was nearly always mentioned in connection with Steve (like at the museum) and now he’s just not.)

The bi4bi energy of Hiccup, back against the wall, with Astrid, one arm on the wall beside him. The vibes are immaculate.

[ft-nostalgia]

The way Sara immediately deflates and tries to abort the mission when she sees Spooner and Astra being treated poorly in A Woman's Place is in The War Effort is such a good moment not because Sara is like a great ally or anything, but because she immediately tries to correct and when they say it's fine, she listens to them. They tell her how much they can handle and she trusts them. She doesn't try to go in over their heads or tell them what they need, she just reaffirms that at any time they can change their minds and then she moves on. And given both Astra and Spooner's respective histories, we know that they can indeed handle it. Anyway, this is possibly my favorite episode in the season, but that's up for serious debate. This season rocks.

[ft-nostalgia]

It's actually so funny that Avengers: Assemble literally told us it was not in line with Cap's arc for him to return to the 40s/50s and then Endgame made that his whole plot. Peak satire.

[ft-nostalgia]

This headline is definitely just looking for clicks. The movie isn't being released (evil, vile, late-stage capitalism at peak physical health) but it's literally because of money. They're not releasing it because they think the tax break they get from not releasing it is more profitable than doing last minute touch ups and just releasing the movie. We can't really know what those numbers are, but it wouldn't justify throwing away all that work anyway, so it doesn't really matter. Test audiences saw the movie and people are talking about it now (who cares about an NDA when they're not releasing the fucking movie?) And it seems the movie wasn't bad? Probably would've recouped it's relatively small budget (around 70 million) so this was literally a business decision and nothing more. It had Michael Keaton as Batman. Nathan Fillion returning to the silver screen. It was guaranteed to make money. Just not as much as they could like this. Despicable, horrid, terrifying.

P.S. They also cancelled Scoob! The prequel movie for the Scooby-Doo movie they made a few years ago.

I….literally have no idea what to say to this headline

[ft-nostalgia]

IDK if this ever happened, but I would've really appreciated just a little moment where Sokka acknowledged how he treated Katara before he met Suki. Because the show kind of paints it as him meeting a girl who proves herself his superior repeatedly, which causes him to change his views on women. But Katara was right there? And sure, she didn't beat him physically, but she was absolutely powerful already. And regardless of her power, Katara was doing a lot for Sokka and the village and while Sokka talks about this with Toph, I don't think he ever does with Katara? I just think that would've been powerful. Especially with the adultification of Katara from such a young age.

So how mainstream is So Tired by Crawlers? Because my soul was set alight when I heard that shit.
