people are so weird about stopping for animals on the road. sorry but if you don't have the ability to see that the squirrel standing on the side of the completely straight 40kph road 10 houses ahead is going to bolt in front of you, you can't do that with children either & should not be driving. it is literally a skill issue.
#''so you're expecting me to predict the future??'' no i'm telling you to pay fucking attention to the road dumbass#i have yet to hit anyone or anything because i pay attention to what is on the road around me & i go the speed limit#i managed to stop my car when a deer jumped out in front of me in the middle of the night because of this apparently supernatural skill#sorry if you can't do this maybe you shouldn't be driving then#edit to say the dude i'm arguing with about this just said they have t.rex vision. they ''only hit things that aren't moving''#WRONG thing to say to me very specifically there bud. t.rex had AMAZING vision#also you don't even live here. you're in toronto. why are you here#plus admitting you hit things with your car does not help your case. i am not convinced you shouldn't have your licence taken away#funny how you can say ''i follow the speed limit & pay attention'' & people will get mad at that#to the point you actively have to tell them ''do you think i'm swerving into oncoming traffic? cuz i am not doing that''#also i guarantee their stance would change in less than a second when i remind them BABY CANADIAN GEESE ARE RAISED HERE#THEY WALK ON THE ROAD TO GET TO THE RIVER. DO YOU WANT TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR BABY GEESE DYING#DO YOU WANT THE GEESE TO REMEMBER YOU AS THE GUY WHO DID THAT. CUZ I SURE AS FUCK DON'T#i live next to the river & an elementary school & there are a criminal lack of crosswalks#i am going the fucking speed limit & i don't care if that pisses you off or makes you late. you are the weirdo here#editing again to say i'm teaching this guy about dinosaur evolution now. character development

Jason/Danny soulmates AU:
The thing about these Soulmate Balls (or Soulmate Speed-dating, as younger people called them) that Gotham's most eligible bachelor and his wards always got roped into, was that you couldn't just introduce yourself. No, you had to say something unique to each person.
It started out as a morbid joke poking fun at his own death, and quickly became an exercise in how uncomfortable Jason could make other people while keeping count of how many he met. Besides, anything with large numbers seemed likely to elicit his Words: "Dude, what the fuck? That's way too many!"
Danny had thought his Words were weird when they first came in, maybe some sick joke. Now that he had accepted that ghosts were real, along with halfas and liminals and other things, he was more willing to take them at face value.
Still, he thought he was more likely to meet his soulmate in the ghost zone than in the party Sam had dragged him to, with Words like, "I've died and come back twenty-seven times."
LMAO okay first of all I love the concept of Soulmate Balls/Speed-Dating that's beautiful. Second, yes love me some dead on main. Also do we think Danny would count every time he's transformed as him dying? I feel like after they have a conversation Danny could potentially tell Jason he's died more times.
ANYWAY! What an amazing prompt, this is so freaking funny. Beautiful. Top tier. I'm laughing. I want to write this omg.

CHALLENGERS (2024) PROMPTS * assorted dialogue, adjust as necessary.
who says i want somebody to be in love with me?
i don't want to fuck you to prove a point.
fuck me because you want to.
are you gonna do it or not?
tastes even better than it looks.
i just told you i missed you.
i really want to kiss you right now, but i'm worried that if i try, you'll think i'm the worst friend in the world.
you know, it hurts me sometimes how little you believe in yourself.
decimate that little bitch.
let's be honest, you gotta feel bad for the kid.
you're not a spring chicken anymore.
dude. he's a pancake. you're gonna flatten him.
how's this feeling?
we're ready for you.
so obviously this isn't the result you wanted today.
you choked.
i don't want you to embarrass yourself.
i'm just a little rusty. it's a confidence thing.
get your fucking confidence back. i can't do it for you.
i'm so sick of you using this as an excuse to have a fucking meltdown.
you said we could watch a movie.
you're evil.
i'm gonna quiz you on it tomorrow.
sir, i don't know who you are.
i don't think we have much more to talk about.
i haven't spoken to you in five years.
i was just taking a little nap.
move, or i'm calling the cops.
you were really something back then, huh?
we always talked about how amazing it would be to win this together.
i'm a crazy person.
any predictions about how that's going to go?
can you do me a favor? can you not, like... demolish me tomorrow?
shut the fuck up.
if it matters to you so much, i can just give it to you.
i need it to look like i really beat you.
don't guilt me with your dying grandmother.
she's the hottest woman i've ever seen.
you were... fucking incredible.
baby, we've got to get going.
i'm not going to that party.
are you that threatened by me?
we can't both just go in there, dicks swinging.
i'd let her fuck me with a racket.
hey, do you smoke?
of course they will remember you.
see, that's your problem. you think you're like an artist or something.
you just want to win because you love it when people tell you how talented you are.
are you on facebook?
i told you tennis was boring.
you just got this crazy look on your face.
are you on a date?
i don't kiss and tell.
why did you want to have dinner with me?
i think you might be the worst friend in the world.
i didn't know you were so concerned about my feelings.
of course you still have a thing for her.
we just had what i'm assuming is the best sex of our lives.
i fucked your brains out?
what do you think you need? a cheerleader? a fuck buddy? a girlfriend?
you're talented, you're charming, and you've got a big dick.
excuse me for inconveniencing you.
don't expect to sleep here tonight.
stop going easy on me.
i'll be whatever you need me to be. i'll fuck off if you want me to.
i need you here, actually.
you're referring to when i declared my love for you.
you're not in love with me anymore?
i've been dreaming about this for five years.
i'm gonna propose something to you, and it's gonna make you angry. it's gonna make you very angry. but you have to hear me out, okay?
i'm finally ready to listen to you.
how dare you fucking ask me that.
do you think it's cute what you're doing? do you think it's funny?
that's the stupidest fucking thing i've ever heard.
i've always wanted you.
you didn't do anything to me. i did it all to myself.
i think i've reached the limit of my willingness to have this conversation with you.
do you understand how embarrassing it is that you're here?
you've never beaten me.
tell me it doesn't matter.
will you just hold me?
i'm not here to fuck you.
i miss watching you play. you were so beautiful.

Hazbin Hotel Finale Spoilers!! You have been fucking warned!!!
Viv you wonderful troll you! I called both Adam and Pentious dying, but I didn't expect to see the latter in heaven and the former meeting his end because of Nifty!
EP 7 doesn't have much I want to talk about, though a quick thing about all the songs. The only one I truly loved was Carmila's the rest were fine and I loved all the callbacks to previous songs.
Dude, the fucking rollercoaster of emotions I felt at the end-
Rosie is great, I still say her and the cannibal's are hellborn until I'm proven otherwise
I'm scared for that deal. I hate IOU deals, Al could ask Charlie for anything.
Vaggie gets her wings back, yeah!
Carmila's shoes being her weapons was amazing!
I think that's it for EP 7.
The bar scene with Huskerdust 😍
I think we saw Husk starting to really fall for him.
Them this whole finale is just so cute, I want more!
Nifty instantly going after Angel after Charlie tells her to stab angels is just perfect.
Nifty and Al, jeez, I didn't expect to be so cute.
The little roach crown 🥺
We were all worried for nothing, Charlie is just emotional.
Also, Chaggie kiss! Now Huskerdust and I'll be set!
The V's are literally just watching them and I feel like some of their reactions
Alastor has been holding back. His fight with Adam is amazing.
And he has a mask... Did not expect that.
Seeing him curse again was amazing.
Charlie is so cute!!!
Angel and Cherri are a power duo!
Husk is so real!
So it seems Adam really did eat the apple.
Vagatha.... I love you Pentious.
"These fucking angels won't stop coming!"
"Ha!"
"Ok, I walked into that one."
That whole exchange is gold.
Lucifer Ex Machina! Yes!
I love his fight with Adam. It's so much fun!
Husk used his wings to shield the others, I'm crying!
Luci, hun, that's not how you say that..
And shut up Val!
Ok, but really, Velvette looks so cute in this.
Fat Nuggets is alive! And Keekee too! Yay!
I was sad about Pentious dying
Then surprised and happy to see him in heaven!
I actually figured he'd been the first to be redeemed. Sorry Angel.
But seriously, suck it Sera!
Speaking of heaven....
How the FUCK did Lilith get there? Why is she there? How the hell could she just abandon her family?
Also, I can't believe they fo
So many fucking questions, Season two needs to come so quickly.
The Hotel looks so cool! I can't wait see it in action.
I know I missed a lot, but God damnit this show is awesome!

𝐔𝐍𝐄𝐗𝐏𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐄𝐃 𝐄𝐍𝐂𝐎𝐔𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐑
Genre: fluff
Note: this is my first metallica fic so pleaseee keep that in mind. I hope whoever reads this enjoys.
Setting: late 90s ~ early 2000s..ish
Summary: Kirk is on tour and he decides to stop by the local guitar store. He ends up staying longer than expected when he overhears a riff that sounded impressive. Assuming it was a guy, but was taken aback when it was a girl...a girl who doesn't seem to know who he is.
It was the weekend and I was starting my weekend off, our next show being on Thursday and Friday of next week. This gave me time to myself to find local comic stores and guitar shops. I was honestly in my own little world as time passed by quickly; I didn't mind at all because I was going to do the whole process again on Sunday. I left the comic book store with a new manga and some new released volumes. All Junji Ito works, no surprise there.
The next stop of the day was the guitar shop. The air was cool and the store was just so fucking huge, It was heaven to me. The store had a variety of items. Vinlys, cassettes, cds, and even some band posters...but my main focus was the guitar wall. All different types of styles and colors, different collaborations of pop culture, anything you could think of-this store probably had it.
A guitar that has been newly stock was the black and red Les Paul. It looked so gothic and vampiric. Younger me was just screaming at me to get it...which It was my plan. I asked a worker to take it off the shelf so I could practice some riffs on it. Just as I imagine; it was a smooth and crisp sound. A sound I was looking feel and I probably would make this guitar debut when I head to Japan.
It was already 5 pm and James was just blowing up my phone. I forgot all about our band dinner. I sighed packing up my things and unhooked the guitar from the amp. On my way towards the front to ring up my guitar, I overheard a riff coming from a room that was being occupied. It looked like it was a guitar lesson in session.
I continued to listen and soon heard a solo. It was definitely in the metal genre. Whoever that dude was; shredding that guitar like it was the last thing on earth. It intimidated me how good it sounded. Almost making me jealous of how I didn't think to use this type of style in a song.
I heard them stop and minor shuffling going on in the room. I quickly walked away and acted like I was looking at the vinyls. I glanced over at the door and saw a tall beautiful girl. She nearly took my breath away. The way she played really matched her style of clothing. She was a goth but it was familiar style I've seen in Japan. Her hair was dyed a dark red and her make up was flawless.
I needed to compliment her and asked her about that solo of hers. I was stupidly stuck in my place but managed to get to her with a sudden boost of confidence. "H-Hey, nice guitar. I heard you playing in that room. You sounded amazing." I complimented her with a smile in admiration.
She smiled back and looked somewhat excited. Did she recognize me? Did she not expect a guitarist from the most known metal band of all time-
"Thank you so much! Are you also a fan of Malice Mizer? I was playing one of their songs."
"Malice Mizer? never heard of them.."
The girl frowned but soon lit up when she started to explain the band to me. "It's a rock band from Japan. Visual Kei style of music over there. I'm really into bands like X Japan and Dir En Grey."
I've never heard any X Japan songs but I definitely seen posters of them in Shibuya. I know they are well loved and idolized in the era of rock music over there.
"There's actually a Malice Mizer cassette next to you of their new album. You should buy it and give them a listen? They won't disappoint." She giggled. I eyed her movements when she moved closer to me, only to pick up the packaged cassette tape. The cover had a silver cross and the band's name in black in the middle. But enough about them, her little giggle was just so cute. If only I could hear that from her more often.
"I'm Kirk."
"(name)"
A beautiful name as well. I didn't want to add anymore details of my name because I knew it wouldn't matter and honestly...i'm really enjoying that. It felt more natural to speak with a non fan. Nothing was forced and she genuinely seemed to enjoy just talking about her favorite music; unlike some girls i'd meet at clubs.
"Well Kirk, I hope to see you around?"
I didn't say a word but I just nodded. I tried to stay positive but it was a pain I wasn't gonna see her again. I bought my guitar and cassette watching the cashier put it in a case. I left the store happy and somewhat sad, but, seeing that girl smile just brighten up my mood...
I hope to see her again.
a/n: so what we thinking?? yay or nay?

I wish you would write a fic where … Venus is in the Navy and there’s where she and Jake meet each other (she doesn’t need to be a pilot but I’m dying to see how it would be if she were a fellow Navy personnel)
k bye love you
Fe the way this has been marinating in my brain! This an amazing idea I love it!
"This is so fucking stupid," Jake muttered as his squad gathered together. It was only the fourth time he had complained about it today, but fourth time’s the charm, right?
Even if he was silent (rare but possible), the annoyance practically radiated off of him. Gone was that signature smirk and in its place his lips were drawn in a thin line, eyes narrowed as he kept his arms firmly crossed over his broad chest.
"You realize that this has nothing to do with whether they think we're good or not, right?" Natasha asked, rolling her eyes.
"And see, that's where you're wrong because it absolutely does. If they thought we were good enough, they wouldn't think we needed training from them," Jake explained, his voice coated in a vexing tone.
"It's their whole job, you do realize that? Right?" Reuben asked, shaking his head. The whole squad had gathered outside the doors, wanting to come in together before the first meeting. What they didn’t think about was that it meant being forced to hear Jake.
Most of the squad was fine with the Star Warriors coming in to help with training. Some were even excited.
And then there was Jake.
Jake who could only shake his head as he clenched his fists and rolled his eyes, "I don't care whether it's their job or not. It's the fact they think we seriously need training that's insulting."
"Well, I'm excited to meet them!" Bob piped in, hoping to break the tension, "I've heard great things about the Star Warriors."
"Yeah, really great things," Bradley said a bit too gleefully, ignoring the death glare from Jake, "Did you know on the Star Warriors is Venom, the only other pilot-"
"Knock it off Bradshaw,” Jake snapped, his tone sharp.
"of this generation that has an airstrike kill? Therefore, breaking our beloved Bagman's record and making him eternally jealous?"
"I am not jealous!" Jake snapped, "Besides I read the report. It was all pure luck, not much skill, if any."
Sure, it hurt a little, truly a miniscule amount, when Jake learned he was no longer the only one who had achieved such a rare accomplishment. But after reading the report, he knew he was still the better pilot.
No jealousy at all. That would be ridiculous to hold against a person he’s never met, never even seen before.
"So you're jealous," Phoenix smirked, "Well I'm excited because it has the highest number of women in a Navy squad and frankly this place needs more women.”
"If you tell anyone I said this, I'll deny it. But," Bradley's voice dropped to a whisper, "Mav had a fling with the Captain of the squad back in the day."
Everyone gasped, well, everyone except Jake.
"There's no way Mav was able to pull Penny Benjamin!" Natasha whispered, "Dude, I had her picture on my wall when I was a kid!"
It was purely because Captain Penny Benjamin was an idol for all girls who wanted to join the Navy. Being one of the first female pilots to fly in a combat mission will do that. Nothing to do with her looks.
Maybe a little.
“It was before she enlisted. But yeah, that's why he told us to all be on our best behavior,” Bradley explained, reveling in the fact he could contribute to the hot gossip for once.
Mickey snorted, “He has been looking like he's about to shit his pants at any moment.”
Javy looked over his shoulder just in case the short instructor was looming by, “You think he still wants her?”
“Considering he’s been trying to follow Cyclone’s orders for the last couple days? I’d say so,” Bradley smirked.
“We should get in there before they take the front tables,” Jake said, crossing his arms. That, combined with the small pout on his face made Jake resemble a child that had been told there was no more cake.
At least that’s how Bob saw it. Not that he would say it out loud (yet).
As the squad went inside, they stopped when they noticed the front four tables had a piece of paper on them, each saying ‘RESERVED’ in bold letters.
“He reserved the front tables for them?” Jake whispered, not even bothering to hide the disgust in his voice.
“Oh, he wants her bad,” Mickey chuckled as he took a seat next to Reuben.
“You think?” Bob muttered as he got out his paper and pad. He didn’t mind the seating change because it gave him a better chance to observe. An act of subtlety that Jake would probably never learn.
“Careful Seresin, there’s steam coming out of your ears,” Bradley whispered as he sat down at the table across from Jake and Javy.
“It’s just some tables, don’t worry,” Javy assured his best friend, internally praying that Jake would be able to keep his cool for once. Today, of all days, was not the time nor place for Jake to lose his temper, or worse, push others to do so.
Jake sneered, ignoring Bradley’s comment as he got out his notebook. Checking his watch, he already felt better- this supposedly ‘amazing’ squad was five minutes late.
Maverick said something about issues with parking.
“Typical,” Jake muttered. This supposedly ‘elite’ squad couldn’t figure out parking?
“Maybe they could have parked if your car didn't take up three spaces,” Bradley remarked, as if he could read Jake’s mind.
“My car is not that big,” Jake defended. Some called his Jeep Wrangler an ‘eyesore’. Jake didn’t think his colleagues had any right to judge his car, Bradshaw in particular.
Natasha rolled her eyes, “Your parking is heinous. How many spots did you take up today, Seresin?”
“One!” Jake rolled his eyes, “And a half.”
“What was that?”
“Nothing!”
The sound of the door opening saved Jake from further scrutiny. There in the doorway stood Penny Benjamin and her supposedly elite crew. He saw the captain of his squad straighten up, clearly hoping to add a few inches to his height.
There were many women, more than one usually sees in a Navy squadron. That alone was enough to turn one’s head.
But one in particular stood out to Jake.
She was right behind Penny, standing tall as she walked into the room. She was striking with her amber eyes and dark hair pulled back in a sleek ponytail. There was an air of confidence about her; she had no trouble standing tall in the front of a room full of strangers.
“Thank you for your patience. My squad and I are honored that we get to work with you,” Penny Benjamin smiled as she addressed the group, “We've heard many great things about this squad.”
“And we've heard many wonderful things about yours,” Maverick said. Jake fought the urge to roll his eyes, not wanting to stop looking at this mystery girl. Her plush lips had formed into a tight smile as her eyes continued to scan the room. The dark green of her flight suit was striking against her sun kissed skin.
When they landed on Jake, he was ready with a bold wink and a dazzling smile. Laying on the Texan charm, as he always did.
She rolled her eyes, whispering something to the blonde haired woman next to her.
Huh. That usually did the trick.
Jake wasn’t nervous. He liked that she remained strong. It spoke volumes of her focus.
Oh fuck, she smiled.
Whatever the woman next to her whispered, it made his dream girl’s eyes light up. Her cheeks rounded as a grin overtook her face. It was one, if not the, most beautiful sight Jake had ever seen. And he had seen sunsets and sunrises all over the globe.
Shit, he was nervous. He shifted in his seat, looking down at his boots. His face felt warm, was he blushing? She didn’t even smile at him and he was blushing.
Fuck.
“I’ll let my team introduce themselves. This way we can all be some sort of name basis, be it callsigns or our government names,” Penny explained, earning a chuckle from Pete that Jake would normally gag at. Instead, he remained poised, eyes remaining on the beautiful woman that was standing next to Penny.
The first woman to step forward had long blonde hair swept into a ponytail and eyes bluer than the sky. She was striking and normally what Jake would go for. But today was proving to be different.
“Lieutenant Camellia Garcia. Callsign Cielo,” She said with a sweet smile, her eyes remaining on Mickey.
He returned the smile, ignoring the playful nudge Reuben was giving him.
“Wait, is that your wife?!” Javy blurted out, earning a giggle from Penny’s squad, along with Natasha, Bob, and Reuben. It was known Mickey’s wife was also in the military, though he didn’t make her area widely known.
“No, they just have the same last name for funsies,” Natasha commented, forcing Bob to stifle a laugh. Bradley continued to look bewildered (not that Nora minded).
“Yes, we do have a pair of lovebirds together. But after Penny and I discussed it extensively, we realized it shouldn’t be a problem,” Pete explained.
Camellia turned her head to face the smaller Captain, “It was never a problem Captain.”
“That’s my Cielo,” Mickey muttered under his breath, making zero attempts to hide how pleased he was.
A woman with military issued glasses was next to step forward. Her doe eyes had been scanning the room while Penny spoke, always alert. “Lieutenant Nora Anderson, weapon systems officer. Callsign Birdie.”
Bradley’s ears perked up upon hearing her callsign. Immediately, he straightened up, leaning forward as his eyes remained intensely on her. He might as well have cartoon hearts in his eyes.
Birdie definitely noticed, looking away immediately after locking eyes with the mustached pilot, a red flush overtaking her face.
Amateurs, Jake thought. After that brief moment, he regained his composure, arms crossed as he moved his toothpick around with his mouth. You never make it obvious.
He was very obvious.
After Birdie, a woman with curly hair stepped forward. With her shining hazel eyes and bright smile, the only word that could best describe her was adorable.
“Lieutenant Maeve Castellanos. Callsign Athena.”
Great, now Bob was staring. Fucking Bob, Baby on Board, of all people, with his cheeks bright red and blue eyes having turned into the living embodiment of hearts.
They were all falling one by one. Soon Jake would be the only one standing strong. He could only shake his head at his coworkers before diverting his attention back to the Goddess that was next to Penny.
Finally, she stepped up. She smiled confidently as her eyes scanned the room before speaking in a self assured tone, “Lieutenant Commander Danica Morales. Callsign Venom.”
Oh.
As Penny’s crew moved to sit down, Jake’s coworkers turned to him, expecting an annoyed look plastered on his face.
Instead, his eyes seemed to be…shining? Rather than a scowl, his lips had formed into what could best be described as Jake’s signature ‘shit eating grin’.
“Huh.” Was all he let out. It wasn’t one of confusion, if anything it reeked of satisfaction, which was odd considering how irritated he was 15 minutes ago.
“Do you have something you’d like to add, Lieutenant Seresin?” Penny asked, much to everyone’s dismay- Pete’s particularly.
Jake straightened up, leaning forward over the table, resembling someone who was about to sweet talk a bartender rather than a Captain.
“I’m just honored to be working with you all, particularly Lieutenant Commander Morales. You know, it’s not every day the best meets the best.”
If looks could kill, Jake would already be dead. Not just from Danica, but from the eyebrow raises and baffled looks from the rest of his squad. If it bothered Jake, hell, if he even noticed, he wasn’t letting on. He simply smirked, eyes remaining on who he once described as his rival.
“However, I do have to say something,” He began.
“Please don’t,” Bob muttered, pinching the bridge of his nose to prepare himself for whatever bullshit was about to flow out of his coworker’s mouth.
“They made a mistake with your call sign. Venom doesn’t suit you,” he explained as if it was obvious.
Maeve scoffed, “Clearly you’ve never heard her over comms.”
Bob now owed Nat ten bucks after claiming there wasn’t a girl on Penny’s squad for him.
Jake ignored the comment, continuing to talk much to everyone’s dismay, “It should have been Venus. After your beauty.”
The room was so silent, you could hear a pin drop.
Danica tilted her head to the side in an attempt to comprehend Jake’s words. Whereas the 45 degree angle tilt seemed to help her cat, Rugelach, understand things, it did not when it came to understanding Jake fucking Seresin.
“Is he….” Nora turned to Maeve, absolutely bewildered, “....on something?”
Maeve rolled her eyes, “Unfortunately no, he had to pass a drug test to be here.”
Nora’s eyes widened, “So he’s….he just said that sober?”
“Welcome to the club, it doesn’t get better,” Bob muttered. Maeve gave him an apologetic smile, making the bespectacled WOS blush, eliciting an amused smirk from Natasha. The moment was a great reprieve from the fuckery that was their blonde teammate.
Bradley leaned over, “If you want Nora, I can give you the rundown on Seresin after this briefing.” He could barely hide his excitement as a blushing Nora timidly nodded her head. If Danica hadn't been twitching over Jake's words, she would have given her WSO a knowing wink and nudge.
Camellia turned to her husband in disbelief, “Does he do this often?”
Mickey shook his head, “This is new for all of us Cielo.” His words brought little comfort.
Penny turned to Pete, lips drawn in a thin line as she contemplated filing a sexual harassment charge. If looks could kill, Jake would have died by Pete Mitchell if Danica hadn’t already killed him with her glare.
“You….” Danica started, closing her eyes for a brief moment to prepare herself, “You’re honored to work with me?”
Jake smiled, showing off his bright veneers teeth, “Of course. How could I not be?”
“Even though my achievement was just, in your words, pure luck?”
The echo of his past words caused the smile to drop from Jake’s face, his brow knitting together in confusion, “I’m sorry darlin’, I don’t understand-”
“That’s what you’ve been telling everyone. That it was all pure luck, no skill,” her lips curled into a confident smirk, eyes narrowing as she continued to stare at Jake, “Word gets around Lieutenant Seresin, especially with a mouth as big as yours.”
With that, she simply turned around, ignoring the once cocky pilot who now had a gob-smacked look on his face.
As well as a raging erection, but she didn’t need to know that.
Jake couldn’t tell you what the rest of the briefing was about. What he did know was that Danica Seresin had a beautiful ring to it.

based on this amazing prompt by @ghost-bxrd (it's hella ooc, but if you wanted it in character, you wouldn't be here)
⚠️Tw: mentions of death, stopped heart, panic, fear⚠️
🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇
NO NO NO NO NO NONONONONO!
They weren't supposed to find out, at least, not like this.
His heart, which just a few moments ago wasn't beating at all, is now beating too fast, too loud, too strong.
He wants to move, to say something, to do something, but he can't. His lungs are still empty, so he starts breathing, too short, too fast.
This isn't good. They're not supposed to know, not supposed to see.
How could he let this happen? Why did he even agree to this stupid sleepover? Now they're all going to know.
All of them?
Panic creeps into his mind. What if he finds out? He can't find out.
He takes a look around the room, Dick is holding him, and he says something that Jason can't hear. Damian looks scared and on the verge of tears. Tim is in the corner holding Cass's hand, trying to reassure her that everything is alright, even if he doesn't believe so himself. Steph and Duke aren't in the room. He has no idea where they could've gone. Barbara is on her laptop, probably searching for a course of action.
"... Just breathe in slowly. " he can finally make out what Dick is saying. So he does just that, trying to slow his breathing and heartbeat, using Dick's voice as both a guideline and an anchor.
It works. He can talk now. He pulls Damian into a hug, which Damian doesn't reject. "I'm alright, Baby Bird, I'm alright."
Damian starts sobbing into his arms. "Your heart, it stopped, and you, you weren't breathing and I, and I don't know what to do because I don't want you to die again!"
"I'm not. You guys aren't getting rid of me so easily," he jokes, then kisses Damian's head. Damian doesn't flinch or move away. He must be really concerned then.
Jason turns to Dick "what exactly happened?"
"Just like Damian said, your heart stopped, so did your breathing. Does this... Happen often?"
Jason nods. He's not sure what to say.
Then Tim speaks "What the actual fuck Todd?! You have any Idea how scared we were? Why didn't you say anything?"
Jason slowly gets up and goes to hug Tim. He can't seem to find the right words.
Tim pushes him away with a horrified expression. "Dude, you're freezing cold!"
Hearing that, Cass brings him the warmest blanket she can find. "No more cold," her warm smile is radiant, Jason wants to hug her but knows he shouldn't.
Barbara comes closer and helps wrap the blanket around him. She doesn't need to say anything.
Jason pulls her into a hug, then brings in Dick, Cass joins them soon after, and so do Tim and Damian.
It's not as cold anymore, Jason feels warmth spreading throughout his body.
After they let go of him, Jason finally pays some mind to the absence of people in the room.
"Where's Steph? And Where's Duke?"
Dick rubs the back of his neck. NO NO NONONO!!
"They went with Alfred to calm Bruce down."
NO! NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!!!
Jason removes his grip from the blanket, letting it fall to the floor as he attempts to escape and leave the manor altogether, but the presence of a man in the doorway stops him in his tracks.
Jason takes a step back, and right before he manages to turn around and run for the window, two strong arms wrap around him, pulling him in for a hug.
And Jason fully breaks down.
Bruce holds him while he sobs and whimpers, giving him a moment to let everything out and calm down a little.
"It's alright, I'm still here. You're still here. We're still here." Bruce says, whether to Jason or himself, no one knows.
Jason can feel Bruce shaking. He tries to grasp the fact that Bruce cares and wants him around. Tries to process that Bruce was scared, terrified of the thought of Jason dying again.
Jason takes notice of the tears running down Bruce's face, moving his hand up to gently wipe them away.
"I'm still here, old man, I'm not dying again."
That's the last thing he says before he allows himself to relax and hug Bruce back, after mouthing a quick "thank you" to Stephanie, Duke, and Alfred, knowing he's wanted and loved by his family.

YA'LL I GOT AN EARLY RELEASE FOR THE VENGENCE SAGA
Honest review (Spoilers btw):
can't talk about it MUCH but I'Il try my best to review
these songs. l'I be at school for the listening party
but at least I already listened to the album
I'm not sorry for loving you: the vocals are beautiful,
you can hear how sad Calypso is and it's just chefs
kiss. Jorge obviously sounds GREAT. I love the
drums while she explains her entire life story for
being alone for 100 years (Odysseus is probably i in
the corner like "dude cool but, ljust wanna see my
wife-")
Also best part
"I wish you would lie and say-"
"I LOVE YOU!"
:..you do?"
"But not in the way that you want me too.."
Dangerous:
The start of the song is Ody going "I miss my crew
I miss them a lot. I'1I be back" of course TROY
IS AMAZING, HOLY SHIT!! As amazing as he is,
Chadybis and Get in The Water are my personal
favorites. But Troy still SLAYED, His instrumental is
different since the Lyre is Apollo's instrument now,
but it still sounds great
can't spoil this, but there's a pretty big plot twist (the
winions appear here so there's that)
Best part?
"If your plans so good, why did you wait to say it?"
"...WELL IT'S A LITTLE BIT-"
Chadybis: IT'S SO HARD TO TALK ABOUT THIS
WITHOUT SPOILING IT, l'II only reveal that the start is
Ody going "dude can we hurry this up, there's only 1
saga left". Ody just kinda acts like those Emoji's, you
know the one "erm, actually 9 & ". Also the rap part
kinda gave me Hamilton Vibes ngl.
Anyways after that happens
"There....I see it."
"GET IN THE WATER BI-"
Get in The Water: how do I describe Get in The
Water? IT'S FUCKING BEAUTIFUL!! I'm sending my
friends this. But yeah, you know how Jay mentions
Polites in every Saga to make us cry? Yeah. This is
the song. Stephen's vocals? AMAZING AS ALWAYS.
also noticed that before he sings, you can hear the
melody of "I can take the suffering from you" but a
bit faster.
"Now get in the water." CHILLS, LITERAL CHILLS.
Sorry ya'l, that's all l'l spoil
600 Strike: yall think l'"l tell you that much? You guys
have been too hyped for that for me to give it to you
that easily, I'I tell you this though:
Poseidon: "how will you sleep at night!?" practically dying
Ody: "next to my wife"
DAMN ODY THAT WAS FOUL
(Shoutout to my wonderful friend @protagaster check them out!!!)

(May your day be beautiful and good <3)
HELLO HEAR ME PLEASE!!🗯
JUST GHOST (or Konig cof cof) WHO DISCOVERS THE READER HAS MOVED ON WITHOUT THEM AFTER THEY HAVE BEEN GOING ON A MISSION FOR MONTHS !!
BUT! actually the reader was just tricked into being told their lover had KIA👀
maybe Ghost/Konig will look for reader? Or do they go on without them? :P
the angst? palpable. delectable. i'm obsessed. (hope your day is amazing, anon :3)
MOVING ALONG
𝜗𝜚 the one where after coming home from a mission, König doesn't know that you think he's gone
𝜗𝜚 pairing: könig x fem!reader 𝜗𝜚 cw: mentions of death/dying in action, moving on, shitty ending 𝜗𝜚 note: find part two here ⤳ link
The last few months had worn on König—filled with a classified mission for KorTac which forced him to go completely off the grid. No texts, no calls, no emails, no letters, no you. It was isolating—but now he was home. And the first place he went to was your apartment.
When König strolled up to your apartment door, he used the toe of his combat boot to kick up the edge of your front door mat, finding the shiny gold key in its usual space. You had left it there for König specifically, knowing just how often he misplaced his things.
He was about to push the key into the lock when he heard an angry voice behind him.
"Hey—the fuck are you doing?"
König turned to face whoever had spoken to him, glancing down to meet the gaze of a man carrying an armload of groceries. His head tilted to the side for a moment, eyes narrowing over the edge of the balaclava he typically wore when not on mission. He must've not spoken fast enough, because the man came closer with a scowl.
"I said—what the fuck are you doing? Trying to break into my girl's apartment or somethin'?"
His girl? König couldn't help the bitter laugh that fell from his mouth as he took a step back. "Your girl? Uh—apologies, I think there must be a mistake. My girlfriend lives here, her name's—"
"Well she doesn't live here anymore, alright? My girl and I live here now, so give me the key and be on your way, 'kay?" The man held out his hand expectantly, lips pressing into a thin line.
Maybe you had moved since König had last been here. Of course, he wouldn't have known. You hadn't been able to talk for how many months? It had to be 7 or 8. So König relented, handing the gold key over to the man in front of him and holding his hands up in a surrendering gesture. "Alright—sorry again."
But as König was walking away and the man began unlocking the door, he could've sworn he heard your voice from inside.
...
You were sprawled out on the leather couch of your living room, hand holding the TV remote as you flickered through channel upon channel to find something to watch.
You were only broken out of your trance at the sound of the key inside of the lock, turning your head and meeting your boyfriend's eyes with a soft smile. "Hey baby—need help with the groceries or anything?"
"Nah babe, I got it." Your boyfriend mirrored your smile as he moved to the kitchen, placing the bags down on the kitchen island before strolling over to place a kiss on the crown of your head. "The weirdest fucking thing just happened."
You frowned at his words, setting the remote in your lap and scooting over on the couch to make room for your boyfriend to sit down. "Weird? What happened?"
Your boyfriend crashed down on the couch next to you, wrapping an arm around your shoulders and tugging you into his open chest. "Some dude was outside—had the spare key from under the front door rug and everything."
Snuggling deeper into your boyfriend's embrace, your eyebrows pulled taut in the middle as you looked up at him. "What—like he was trying to break in?"
"No, he said his girlfriend lived here." Your boyfriend let out a belly laugh, shaking his head from side to side before sighing softly. "I told him to get the fuck outta here. It was weird—he was a tall fuckin' guy too."
You felt your heart sink into the pit of your stomach, nuzzling your cheek against your boyfriend's collarbone as the pieces of the story began clicking together in your brain. But that story couldn't have been possible—you'd gotten the dreaded letter in the mail months ago. It was still laying in a crumpled, tear-stained ball somewhere in the back of your desk drawer.
König was dead, killed in action, and you knew he was never coming back. KorTac told you he was never coming back. That's why you moved on, found someone new, began rebuilding your broken heart and your life from the ground up. It simply wasn't possible.
"You okay, babe? You've got that look on your face. What're you thinking about?" Your boyfriend pulled you from his chest, hands coming to rest on the swell of your cheeks as he gazed down into your eyes. His face read of concern, but you knew he couldn't tell exactly what was happening inside of your brain.
So you swallowed it down with a soft smile, a shrug of your shoulders, and a swipe of your lips against his. Ever since that letter came in the mail and your life as you knew it had crumbled in the matter of a few words, you had become an expert at shutting your emotions off and putting on a brave face. "Just thinking about dinner. What're you hungry for?"

OMFG. In the World Cup of Cherry Magic, Thailand vs. Japan, WHEW, YESTERDAY'S EPISODE, AN EPISODE 11 (!!!!!), Thailand went deep into double overtime territory to pull out this GOAL, BABY:
If I may continue with the sports metaphors, this was like the sickest bat flip out of Korean baseball that anyone's ever seen, Karan just hammering Achi's magical power over the metaphorical Green Monster:
youtube
I have so much more to say about this episode, including thoughts on the beach scene from earlier in this episode -- I have a whole list of CMT meta that I've been dying to write. But I just need to applaud:
1) X Nuttapong and the CMT writers for continuing to allow Achi and Karan to be so direct in their communication, and,
2) Tay Tawan. This was Tay Tawan's best episode by far. He's been playing Karan perfectly, a deeply simped-out dude for his man Achi, but especially on the beach, I felt like we saw the kind of depth of connection, wonderment, honesty, and emotional connection that Tay demonstrated as Shin in 3 Will Be Free, and even during many moments of emotional confusion as his Pete in Dark Blue Kiss.
I had been wondering to myself, during this series, if this series had allowed Tay to demonstrate his best acting: because Karan is so locked into simp mode, that mindset that Tay would have to click into seemed almost a touch one-dimensional for his talents (not that that's a bad thing, I think he's clocked into it wonderfully).
It was a different set-up, obviously, in Cherry Magic Japan, particularly when Kurosawa sat in Adachi's apartment after Adachi’s hospital scare. Kurosawa was scared shitless — he and Adachi both were concerned for Kurosawa’s stability in that moment.
My drama friends and I have commended CMT for a different kind of equity in communication and emotional connection between Karan and Achi vs. Kurosawa and Adachi. I don't fault CMJ at all -- both Adachi and Kurosawa are drawn more internally into themselves as opposed to Karan's and Achi's outward and empathic presentations, and that's just by way of different interpretations of these couples and the Cherry Magic framework among nations.
Karan’s tack of both remaining utterly calm at Achi's bedside after his fainting spell, and his physical demonstrativeness towards Achi on the beach and in the bedroom -- these are moments where we see a lot more nuance from Karan, as opposed to Kurosawa, in Karan's controlling and then letting go of his desire, and I'm just a little obsessed right now that GMMTV had Tay Tawan be able to act all of this out, and Tay is just eating it.
I have SOOOOOO MUCH MORE to say and think on regarding comparisons to Karanachi and Kurodachi, all good stuff, nuanced stuff that I'm just OBSESSING OVER between Thailand and Japan, but for now, I am giving Tay all my flowers and Korean baseball fan dances, because this episode 11 was just FUCKING AMAZING.
#what i mean to say by all these sports metaphors is that this episode was a winner#what a hell of a turn for a GMMTV episode 11#god this was a work of art this episode#OH ALSO#GUY SIVAKORN!#guy sivakorn#if papang can make a surprise appearance#so can guy sivakorn#cherry magic th#cherry magic#cherry magic thailand#cherry magic japan#taynew#tay tawan#new thitipoom#karanachi#karan x achi#achi x karan#kurodachi#kurosawa x adachi#adachi x kurosawa

You Cannot Have My Pain aka Oathbringer thoughts
I am an empty shell
in both a good and a bad way
it's 5:28AM as I start to write this
MOASH
how DARE you
Dalinar I actually love you
Odium, u r actually a CREEP dude
spoilers will be under the cut *bows an emotionally drained bow*
*stares into the distance, watching the waves crash onto the shore*
Do you guys ever relate to a character that's nothing like you? Like, something happened in your life that CONNECTS you to a character? For me, that's Dalinar.
And I know what you're thinking
WHAT bitch?
a warlord tyrant turned peacemaker, eh? r u a criminal bitch?
No. But I did lose my mom to cancer in 2022. My internal landscape changed overnight. The things I deemed important changed. I was able to finally see my flaws, made bare by my immense regret (a normal feeling when grieving) and it look a LOT of therapy to forgive myself. I didn't like the person I was. I was selfish, was quick to judge and didn't desire human connection, and I was so mad at myself that it took my mom dying to spark that change.
Without making this a TED Talk, I deeply connected to Dalinar's grief that struck me in an unexpected way.
"Sometimes a hypocrite is nothing more than a man in the process of changing." Oh...? Oh. Oh. TEARS down my face.
LET US BEGIN.
So, we BEGIN the book with Dalinar seeing a figure in black Shardplate with nine shadows and red eyes
oh ok
Oh bro when Elhokar bowed down to Dalianr trying to abdicate and name Dalinar a Highking...& Dalinar and Navani are like
!! bro !! GET UP
OMG!!
WHEN HIS MEMORY CAME BACK OF EVI
I remember reading it and they were like "blah blah blah yeah, Evi" and I was like bro WAIT A FUCKING SECOND DUDE
oh oh oh
When Pattern asked if Adolin was an option for him to marry LMFAO ok Pattern we get it hahhhahhaha Pattern is so funny dude
Even in Shadesmar when he and Adolin were pretending to be illusions and he was happily waving a glass stick above his head, I'm like damn he's....a little touched tbh
Dalinar strolling around during a highstorm looking for a fucking knife was iconic as well as him spotting the assassin in literally 0.5 seconds and murking him and everyone in the room is like
Gavilar was like "um thanks"
Blackthorn Unleashed was an amazing chapter. He went into Bloodstance - a stance for someone who didn't care if he got hit and he was RAGING
But you know what I also noticed about this chapter? Gavilar like, casually put a hit out on Highprince Kalanor and juts points Dalinar wherever he wants. And I GET IT, right? Like, the Alethi are good at war. Everyone talks about it, it's what they're known for.
HOWEVER, the enabling of Dalinar's behavior is, at times, sickening. Even though I know this is a cultural thing and they all see it as a good thing. There were several times in this book where Sadeas or Gavilar said something to push Dalinar towards violence that I was like YO this is super fucked up.
Tangerine had a interesting quote too. He was telling a story about how if there were 3 people and one was a murderer, would you hang all of them, let them all go and risk someone killing again, or keep them all in prison despite some being innocent. And Tangerine said
"Eventually you will execute someone who does not deserve it. This is the burden society must carry in exchange for order." And I'm sitting here in the US of A like
holy fuck we're rich bitches <-- my audiobook bookmark when the Midnight Mother is chased away by Shallan's phalanges and we see all the uncut gems in the pillar thingy
JASNAH WELCOME BACK BITCH I was lit and it was so unexpected, she was such a badass in this book. At the end when she isn't even looking when she's killing The Fused and when she steps into politics and I'm like oh Jasnah will STEAMROLL these mother fuckers
OMG when Adolin was like I am NOT going to be king, dad and Shallan was like "hmm have you guys ever thought of..." and I rolled my eyes and was like "Renarin, duh. He'll have more prominence in the story this way and"
*Jasnah walks into the room with a crown on*
OF COURSE!! IM A FUCKING IDIOT!!! OF COURSE JASNAH SHOULD RULE. Omg I feel like she hates politics but she's the PERFECT one for the job! She can be the best diplomat but also fuck them up with words (or she could soulcast tf outta them)
OH! Evi suggesting the Nightwatcher first was a surprise
omg wait about Evi
she was amazing. she tried so hard despite not fully understanding everything (I do blame Dalinar because he made decisions, but I mostly blame Alethi culture, here. I cursed out loud multiple times at their NEED for conquest and war, growing frustrated at how narrow minded that can make them. as well as how cruel). she was scared of him, but she had this one moment when she told Dalinar after finding out that he had actually spared that child, that she saw BEAUTY in him. i was like oh bitch you are a baby angel
she tried so hard for Dalinar. even that scene when Adolin crawled down from the carriage and he saluted Dalinar...and Evi said Adolin asked her the best way to talk to him and when she told him he was a war general he decides to salute
that's just....that moment was so sweet despite Dalinar still not understanding how to be a father
LIFT SAYING THAT DALINAR HAS A DUMPTRUCK OF AN ASS WAS ONE OF MY FAVORITE SCENES
Lift out here like "HEY YO TIGHT BUTT WHATS GOING ON?"
holy fuck
Dalinar in canon having a nice ass is one of the funniest, most unexpected comedic jokes of this series
oh, Shallan was supposed to take notes but was drawing Kaladin instead ok girl
Teft being addicted to firemoss and Rock saving Kaladin with the Shardbow were both so amazing characters moments. teft having so much self hatred and selling his uniform which ended up coming back around when the person who attacked bridge 4 for the herald blade had his vets on PHEEWW and Rock saving the day I SCREAMEDDDDD!!! OMG ROCK!!!
"You're thinking of me," the Stormfather sent. "I can feel it."
BRO WHAT???????????? STAY IN THE STORM WHY YOU SAYING WEIRD SHIT
Jasnah vs Amaram was legendary. She REALLY said do you feel lucky today, punk
ODIUMMMMMMMMM
yo when Odium showed up literally the nicest dude wanting to braid Dalinar's hair I was like HELL NO this man is dangerous
then when he showed Dalinar his final form I GUESS he's like all hatred and passion and sex and bloodlust and im like oh HELL NO dude
"Emotion. It is what defines men - though ironically you are poor vessels for it. It fills you up and breaks you unless you find someone to share the burden with" oh ok cool odium, lol poor weak humans, fuck us then i guess
Kaza was maybe the most memorable one off character for me, the soulcaster woman who was dying and chose to kamikaze at the end because she wanted to choose how she went out
Lift and Dalinar eating fruit together in silence is, I fear, iconic
i cracked up at the myth wit told about the queen who switched places with Mishim (the moon) to fuck Nomon (the other moon) and that's why Natanatan people are blue
like wtf bitch
Adolin telling Kaladin he talks like a girl sometimes....oh? Adolin? OH?????? *smirks in Alethi*
The Rathalas scene was nuts. The thing was he tried too, Dalinar tried to offer some sort of mercy and they fucked his ass with a pole. Then he's like ok, dope *embraces Thrill in a sensual embrace* "None will be left to weep" got it cool cool cool
I do like the little hints left, like he sees red (which we see later is the Unmade) and all the times he's briefly seen red and flashes of red we know was the Nergaoul, who was thought to be the origin of the Alethi "Thrill" which I found fascinating
OOOOOOH MY GOD
MOASH
MOASH!!!
FUCKING MOASH
HOW DARE YOU!!!
after he was EMOTIONLESS when he KILLED Elhokar then SALUTED KALADIN WITH THE BRIDGE FOUR SALUTE RIGHT AFTER IT
Literally fuck Moash (his arc is fine and it's interesting because we get more lore but I dont like him)
THEN HE SHANKS JEZRIAN like MOASH wtf are you DOING bro?!?!?!?!!!!??!?!?!?!??!?!?!!?!?
I liked how cautious Queen Fen was but then remained an ally when shit hit the fan (I liked how cautious everyone was tbh because they're all just so scared of ThE BLAcKtHoRn and youre like bro come ON but then you're like oh yeah ok i get it)
I LOVED Dalinar's flashbacks. With the Nightwatcher (then Cultivation after Dalinar asked for forgiveness and NW was like ??? and Cultivation was like "I got it from here bitch"), and when he breaks down and holds Renarin ("They talk about you, but they're wrong. You just need to rest, after all the fighting you did. I know. And I miss her too." RENARIN PLEASE!!! THE TEARS I HADDD!!!!!), when Adolin lights up after Dalinar tells him he's proud of him, how he thinks of himself as an animal, that he deserves to be hated. It's all just so MUCH.
The PANIC ATTACK he was having when the Thrill like, chased him around and threatened to consume him...
It was so well done that the
YOU CANNOT HAVE MY PAIN was so GOOD it was so EARNED. God, the CATHARSIS I felt in that moment was so satisfying. Because bitches i really thought Dalinar was going to become Odium's champion and out intrepid heroes were going to have to fight DALINAR in book 4
Odium: lol I've had my champion for a long ass time, bro. ive been preparing him and watching him forever
Dalinar: Amaram?
Odium: lmfao bro its you bro
Dalinar: ...bro
and I was like
Then Dalinar said JUST KIDDING BITCHES and the GLORY SPREN!!! BY THE THOUSANDS!!! AND HE SMASHED ALL THE REALMS TOGETHER!!! AND HE SAVED ADOLIN KALADIN AND SHALLAN!!!
YOU CANNOT HAVE MY PAIN!!!!!
"I KILLED THOSE CHILDREN. I BURNED THE PEOPLE OF RATHALAS!"
youtube
oh my god I have GOOSEBUMPS AGAIN
truly one of the most cathartic reading experiences I've had. The investment of 3000+ pages was worth it for that moment, and I mean that sincerely. It was that good
(Side note when Adolin's sword spren with her clawed out eyes attacked that one Fused I was overcome with emotion. What was her name? Maya? I think? that was a great scene too)
yo. SZETH. Brandon Sanderson you brilliant bastard. You did it. You gave us Szeth. Yes. YES. He's chosen to swear and oath to DALINAR. My man DK just be picking up bitches left and right to do his bidding. Kaladin, Lift, Szeth, Rial, Kmakl.
Lift was amazing. Her parts were so much FUN and the atmosphere shift to her personality was so welcome and uplifting and funny when it happened.
Jasnah's moment with Renarin was beautiful. "You are my cousin. Family, Renarin! Hold my hand. Run with me." SO SO SO SO GOOD Jasnah you are a legend you are THE MOMENT
Venli's Timbre pulsing to Victory as he has the Voidspren of her gemheart at knifepoint lmao (Im so glad she's a Radiant now, can't wait to see if she is developed more)
I feel like I have more thoughts (there was so much lore in his book but I'm not sure I have the energy to dissect it rn) but it's 7:22am and I haven't slept so im sorry if this post was unstable
good night lovelies

I LOVE DALINAR KHOLIN A LOT OK I HAVE STRUGGLED SINCE MY MOM DIED IN GRASPING THAT DESPITE YOUR PAST YOU CAN CHANGE AND ITS POSSIBLE TO UNDERSTAND THE BEAUTY OF LIFE MORE AFTER YOU'VE EXPERIENCED THE PAIN OF LOSING SOMEONE YOU LOVE BECAUSE THEY CAN NO LONGER EXPERIENCE IT WITH YOU
AND THAT GRIEF ISN'T FATAL BUT SOMETIMES IT FEELS LIKE IT COULD BE BUT IF YOU CAN FIND A WAY TO PUSH THROUGH THE PAIN OF GUILT AND REGRET IT CAN ACTUALLY MORPH YOU INTO A BETTER PERSON IF YOU LET IT

Some Thought on the Second season (the parts I watched, anyway)
In no order in particular, really.
=> The scene in the first episode of Jace trying to report Rhaenyra about the forces he aquired but breaking down in tears due to Luke's death was amazing. It's the conflict between being royals/rulers and being people/family. It also gave us more info about the state of the upcoming war, and showed us the relationship between Rhaenyra and her son.
=> Could have done without the "Rhaenyra looking at the distance" scenes, though. There must be a better way to explore her grief.
=> We got to see Lord Stark!!! And get some Winterfell lore!!! and go see the Watch!!!! The North is my fav I'm so glad to get that little glimpse. Also Cregan Stark is the most Stark dude I've seen on this show(s). Hopefully we'll see some fun wild blood of the wolf moments from him.
=> "I want Aemond's head" *leaves* ok girlboss but maybe come up with a plan
=> Jace hair is just.... So much better. I love character development.
=> We were robbed for not getting the Green's reaction to Aemond's kinslaying, especially since they'll have to manage the fallout from this act.
=> I don't like sexual turn in Allicent/Cole relationship. Not because I blame Allicent or whatever, I just really liked how their relationship was not grounded in romance/sex (in a way, they were respite to one another from sexual pressures) but I guess "she was a woman, he was a man" writing logic wins.
Edit: you know what? I thing that the criston -allicent thing could have been really good if we saw them get to that point. They were boinking out of nowhere . Was there something I missed in season 1?
=> I can go off all the ways this show strips women of agency and the ability to want anything, and perhaps I will (once I finish the season), but for now I don't like how Mysaria was "poor unfortunate soul forced to introduce Daemon to B&C for her freedom" and not, you know, an active perpetrator in this.
=> LOL not Daemon confronting Rheanys about the dumb scene in the dragon pit from season 1. Yes. Rheanys could've ended this war with minimum casualties. It's not her fault she didn't, the writers just decided to blow up a meaningful scene in the dumbest way ever.
=> Also there is a lot of talk during this season about the smallfolk and how their opinion can sway who wins the war, which is good, but it's odd that Rheanys' dragon stomping, killing and maiming all those smallfolk doesn't ever come up.
=> Daeron's existence being confirmed in an offhand remark after not even being MENTIONED in the last season is the FUNNIEST moment in this show for me.
=> It feels really odd to me that Aemond is still visiting the women who essentially was forced on him as a child. Like. It's the same kind of logic of "Larys has foot fetish becasue his disability is based around his foot" and I don't like it.
=> A lot of people say "They killed the boy" was Heleana not caring about her son dying, but for me it was a perfect encapsulation of her unable to handle the immense pain she's in and trying to distance herself from reality. This and the funeral scene later show Heleana trying to process her grief through her neurodivergence.
=> Real talk: why did B&C have a dog?
=> Daemon in Harrenhall is my favorite storyline, sitting there having indie horror game esque visions and phasing in and out an unfortunate reality of having to do diplomacy. Chef's kiss.
=> Daemon saying "have you considered kinslaying" to a Tully boy whos motto is "Family, Honor, Duty" is so fucking funny. He is so freaking bad at this.
=> ALYS RIVERSSSSSS MY FAVVVVVVVVV "you will die here", refuses to elaborates, leaves. Yes brew blood cocktails to give Daemon nightmares. Yessss gaslight him into thinking its the bed.
=> Ok the plan of Rhaenyra to sneak and meet with Alicent was so... Cartoonish. Also highly irresponsible for the ruling queen to dissapear without a trace during a WAR. Worse of all, it was kind of boring, and cost us valuable time we could use to expand upon other characters.
=> Like I know Cole sent the twin with a similar plan but at least that was acknowledged as stupid by the narrative, and also had an explosive and emotionally satisfying conclusion.
=> LMAO at Otto complaining about Aegon as he was fired, alll the way up to and including when he was packing to go back to the Reach.
=> What team am I if I think Aegon is a legit Usurper but Rhaenyra is kinda boring?

it's that time of the month, you know what that means
The JOJOLands Chapter 15 spoilers ahead
hi, i'm pawmimo, also known as gooby, also known as vivian. this is probably going to become a monthly occurrence where i share my thoughts and opinions on the new jojolands chapters, as i did last month because i was in SHAMBLES over it.
to start off; holy fuck dude, charmingman is so find i won't himb /ref. the visuals this chapter were absolutely amazing and cool asl. especially this panel oh my GODDD
anyways, now for the obvious. charming man's stand name.
not to be that guy (i'm totally that guy) but i 100% knew his stand was going to be a The Smiths' song. i didn't expect it to be Bigmouth Strikes Again specifically though. in all honesty, not exactly a name i expected, not exactly a name i'm satisfied with, but i won't complain. felt my ego grow 100x bigger when i was right about it being a The Smiths' song tho!!!
next thing i wanted to discuss was usagi. i can understand why the gang isn't 100% trusting of usagi, as he's only known them for 3 days, and their first interaction with him was selling drugs to him. HOWEVER. no one has really taken him seriously. like. ever. he's proven himself to be the smartest, and probably the most experienced with stands, of them all. usagi definitely struggles when it comes to streets smarts (as seen in the first chapter when he pulled out money on the bus) but he's knowledgeable when it comes to human anatomy (chapter 15), equipment (chapter 3, when he corrected paco), just overall random ass facts (chapter 3, with the 'a'ā lava, chapter 6, 'i'iwi birds), and most importantly, STANDS.
this is the second time usagi was able to correctly identify that they were being attacked by the stand, and the second time where no one believed him until it was blatantly obvious. charmingman was a huge asshole this chapter and it made me dislike him but also builds a bit more character for him, which i enjoyed. it kinda feels like charmingman has some history (possibly a family history, like with one of his parents) with drug addicts, especially with the way he says "100% of junkies are liars," and the fact that he immediately knew it was a pulmonary edema. this could also be the reason why he's so hard on usagi up until he admits his respect.
this entire chapter just made me feel bad for usagi, everyone was just telling him to shut the fuck up while he felt like he was literally dying the entire time. however, before the woman who was also affected by the stand was shown to them, jodio was literally the only one willing to hear him out. tbh whole chapter kinda fueled the whole "usagi is the jobro" theory to me but wtvvv.
can i talk about how fine charmingman is again like HELLOOOOOO??? either i fix her or estrogen will /ref
anyways, here's paco with a really long brim
#jojolands 15#happy jojolands day#jojolands spoilers#jojos bizarre adventure#jjba#jojolands#charming man#usagi alohaoe#jodio joestar#paco laburantes#jojo no kimyou na bouken
