Irving Berlin himself (well the Irving Berlin instagram) is providing some Clark Gable propaganda for @hotvintagepoll . Well, so many song and dance men have been knocked out, someone has to keep the flag flying for the Great American Songbook

do skully have pokemon?

Pumpkaboo is the obvious one, but y'know, sometimes the obvious one is the right one! (we'll say SUPER SIZE Pumpkaboo, just for fun. big pumpkin for big skeleton boy.) and another person actually also suggested Greavard, which I somehow hadn't considered, but feels so perfect that I feel like I should have. dangit.

(they can also have little Nightmare Suit costumes :D)

Prompt 187

Clockwork would openly admit that he couldn’t see Danny’s timelines. Not since the moment he stepped into that portal and became something more. A child of Infinity, of the very Realms itself. 

But he’ll also admit that it always meant that the child surprised him all the time. This just happened to be a startling surprise, and an admittedly amusing one, even if Danny was openly complaining about the situation. 

“It’s not fair! You have to be able to fix this, right? Right?!” the ghostling, quite literally now, practically yanked at his cloak. “Clockwork, I was going to graduate, I can’t be two! Please, you’re the master of Time, you can fix this right!?” 

No, no he could not, seeing as young Daniel was in fact, immune to timeline machinations, doubly so for his own. To the ghostling’s open distress, which he did his best to soothe. What he could do instead, was stop time in his home dimension, and instead let him age back up again. 

Which the young halfa wasn’t happy about, but it was the best thing they had, so Clockwork supposed he had a ghostling now. A tiny adorable ghostling who kept pouting each time his much younger body had any sort of effect on his behavior. 

He’d never exactly had a ghostling before, nevermind one who was part human, but he would admit he honestly was enjoying it. Most time was spent alone, something he hadn’t realized until Danny ended up crashing into his unlife. 

Honestly he would openly admit that he absolutely adored his little ghostling. Who was now around four, at least physically, and had gotten into the adorable habit of curling up in the pendulum in his chest. Which was honestly the safest spot in Long Now, he’d admit. 

The singular issue however, with this habit, was that when someone attempted to summon him, they got his ghostling as well. And well, normally he could very much control himself for these summonings that happened every few hundred or so years, but well. There was a reason why even the Observants had stopped popping in the moment they realized he had a ghostling. 

Nesting ghosts do not mess around should they feel one is messing with their very vulnerable child, and really it’s not his fault the mortal cultists woke up and startled Danny. Perhaps deleting them from the timeline was a bit too far, if the other mortals rapid paling was to go by, but oh well.

I'm also still laughing that he really showed up, introduced himself as an Archivist of the Cobalt Soul, and then insinuated that they were going to go extrajudicially hunt down, capture, and "interrogate" a Cerberus Assembly Archmage. Sir, archivists do not do that kind of thing, least of all on their own, LEAST OF ALL with a bunch of random hooligans they were just sent to collect for an unrelated excursion. Quite honestly, that was the thing I kept going back to in evidence of, there is absolutely no way this is a legit archivist.

Highlights of Glass Onion

1-Daniel Craig’s terrible southern accent

2-Daniel Craig as Benoit Blanc playing Among Us in his bathtub again Angela Lansbury and Stephen Sondheim

3-“it’s so dumb”“It’s so dumb it’s brilliant”“No! It’s just dumb”

4-literally the whole movie is about how dumb Elon Musk is. Also Zuckerberg. And whoever the fuck the other billionaire is. But also definitely Elon Musk.

4-Benoit Blanc is so clearly gay in such a casual way I love it

5-Janelle Monáe

6-The very clear messaging of ‘you will never take down a person like this through the legal ways so just beat the shit out of them until something gives’

7- everyone is clearly having the time of their lives making this movie

norman takamori couldn't grasp the social side of climbing the ranks of the amercadian space brigade but happily threw himself into the cruelty and ruthlessness of it all. margaret encino knows people - she knows exactly when to push which buttons and how - and could've continued to make absurd amounts of money because of it but couldn't bring herself to stoop to uftp's moral low. they are, of course, both punished for their shortcomings. after losing the thing they'd worked for and the organisation they'd worshipped since they were young, they both become captain of the wurst. norman can't see a life without the space brigade, and so he resigns himself to misery and is determined to take his crew down with him. without uftp, margaret sees freedom and opportunity, and makes the most of it. to norman, his ragtag crew is a curse. to margaret, they're a blessing.

norman takamori's not made to be a leader; he's made to take orders, to be a cog in the machine, to lie down and take whatever happens to him, even when he does it bitter and angry. margaret encino's not made to take orders, but whether or not she's made to lead doesn't matter to her. if she wants something to happen, she'll bend the damn universe to her will for it, and she'll do it with a perfectly diplomatic smile. she's sharp and smart and could be cruel, but chooses to be compassionate and hopeful instead.

norman takamori lets things happen to him; margaret encino chooses for herself. he's the worst boss the wurst has ever had, and she's the best.

LET'S WIN THE BIG ONE, BOYS

[trollprincess]

The actual sexualities of the Bridgerton siblings if Netflix and the people a little too devoted to the books wouldn’t have some kind of heart attack:

Anthony: Straight. Terrifically, fantastically straight. Every cell in that man’s body is heterosexual, with the exception of the one brain cell he shares with his brothers, which has to shift gears constantly depending on who needs its powers most at the moment. Anthony is so straight it’s impressive he didn’t impregnate Kate just by looking at her. Which is not a straight trait. It’s not an anybody trait, it’s literally fucking impossible, but if anyone could do it it’s those two.

Benedict: Bisexual as fuck. I would say pansexual but who taught this man how to sit in chairs?

This motherfucker is so bisexual he kind of hit on his own brother ten minutes into the new season. He is an absolute disaster of a human being. He has no idea if he’s flirting with 95% of the people he’s flirting with. Bi. As. Fuck.

Colin: Fluid. “Tracing freckles with your fingertips,” my ass. That man traveled to seventeen cities in a handful of months presumably banging anyone who sat still long enough. That said, I think if asked, he’d tell you whatever sexuality you wanted to hear. Or whatever he was feeling at the time. Or whatever sexuality he has on his itinerary for when he’s in Cyprus. Who gives a shit? He’ll be leaving in two weeks. Sure, whatever, I’m straight today, but don’t place any bets on Tuesday.

Daphne: Just a smidge bisexual. On the Kinsey scale, there’s just a scintilla of wiggle time between Simon and, like, that maid she made out with one time.

Eloise: Lesbian. Oh, she’s so into girls. That’s not to say that her future husband (here unnamed for book spoiler reasons) is not a perfectly lovely person who’s fantastic in bed. But also, she’s a lesbian. If she were alive today, she and Cressida would have been dating for six months before she realized that when you move in with a woman, share the same bed, and sometimes have sex together, you’re probably dating. Or delusional. Or both! These ARE the Bridgertons, after all.

Francesca: Demisexual. Introvert, on the spectrum, call her what you will, but Francesca’s only having sex with you if you dig past her hyperfixation with her pianoforte and correctly interpret her silence into English.

Gregory: Asexual. Only because it makes his ending in the books even funnier.

Hyacinth: Omnisexual. That woman will try ANYTHING. An. Y. Thing. Hyacinth likes a challenge. And she also likes to BE the challenge, which makes for an interesting dating life. Yes, yes, she’ll marry a cis straight guy eventually, but until she is the Jack Harkness of Mayfair and may God have mercy on whoever tries to stop her.

Established Hitaka...

Hux, slapping a packet of papers on Mitaka's desk: Please read over these forms, and sign them if you accept the terms.

Mitaka, squinting at the papers: What is this??

Hux: My marriage proposal.
