Of course it's fucking THESEUS

okay. i havent shut up about the greek myth aspects of Simon's story and i wont stop now. At first it was a statue of Persephone in the garden, with it's head replaced to be Betty, giving the implication that Betty is the Persephone to Simon's Hades, and it was Simon's status as an antiquarian. and now we've gotten Simon being a huge nerd and bringing up Theseus completely unprompted (so real)

a bit of context in case you need it, Theseus was one of those greek "legendary Heroes" (Achilles, Heracles, etc.), and previously King of Athens, but had managed to dodge most bad things that happen to Greek heroes. he was just stupid and i guess they took pity on him.

The Ship of Theseus or "Theseus' Paradox", which I'd imagine all of tumblr knows by now, but if you don't, is the question on whether if a ship, specifically Theseus', is still the same ship after having all of its parts replaced exactly. To me this makes for such an obvious connection to Simon. Simon's story factors around identity, first and foremost. (yknow. "I Remember You" and all that?) The concept of not knowing what you are fundamentally was originally Ice King's thing, as his previous life as Simon was essentially history. But now that's being brought to Simon. and Simon has the lucidity to process what that means for him.

Impulsively shoving a guy's hand in your mouth after having the thought "oh just like when my little sister used to prick herself on a rose thorn" and then immediately being treated like a pet who ate something they shouldn't have? Wonderful. Thank you, Thane.

(also not pictured is Thane apparently trying to scrape your tongue with his hand BEFORE pouring the holy water down your throat because NO. BAD.)

let it be known that i love prince inigo with my whole soul. however sometimes it is SO much fun to think about owain and his two most loyal-est knights you ever seen: worst guy in the world #1 and worst guy in the world #2. i love retainer inigo and severa so much. retainers who bully you and make fun of you and trash on you but they’d leave behind everyone and everything they ever knew to follow you and protect you in a whole new universe. they love you so much that they’d swear allegiance to total strangers but that loyalty pales in comparison to what they’d do for you. and they were all lovers!!!!!!!

Not Only is he a bisexual icon but he also Cannot stop framing his demonic encounters as dubiously romantic without anyone or anything prompting him to

sometimes i read fics w the breaking up and making up tag and its like. in theory im so down for it i love the drama, but in practice i think i might just be kind of a bitch but 99% of the time im like. wtf. how could you just get back together after that. if someone said that to ME i would NEVER kiss them again let alone two seconds after they manage a shitty apology. if someone did that to me i would dump their ass for GOOD. fuck that guy! at least tell him "actually i need some time to think about it" when he comes back grovelling. bruh. where are your STANDARDS.

[edwinisms]

see I need ghost clothes to have properties more or less like regular clothes because wearing someone else’s jacket or shirt is one of the most important expressions of affection in existence and yes basically what I’m saying is i wanna see charles give edwin his jacket for one reason or another and see edwin get all flustered and giddy about it

thinkin bout magneto's lil list of aliases from that One Shot of his government file or w/e in 97 and how it lists the three main men who've played him (David Hemblen, Ian McKellen, Michael Fassbender) and kinda cackling at the idea 1.) if they included All his names 2.) having 'michael' on that list twice

I think it'd be kinda funny if Dick got (marginally) a better outcome from his divorces than Tim just to highlight how much Tim fucked up. Dick's still driving the struggle bus but Tim's bus got the wheels and engine stolen. Two divorcees in the house and one of them is making things worse for himself than they ought to be while the other hit rock bottom face first with a replay cam.

Dickvorcee is smart enough to have gotten prenups (used to people trying to use him to get the Wayne fortune) and the court gave him at least primary if not full custody of his kids...whether he actually has the money to support those kids is a different story bc his exes are free and don't have to pay anything + Dick's had a stick up his ass for YEARS about not accepting more help/support from Bruce. Good luck sending even one of those kids to college on that job rotation. Dick's on okay terms with his exes but it's hard to tell whether it's bc he still loves them or he's putting on a good face for the kids. His bad joints + bad job combo makes him miserable and grumpy and takes away his Just Keep Moving coping mechanism since he can't really jump/run/flip around anymore. Pent up anger he has to repress so the kids and Bruce don't pester him about it, but he does get petty and snappier around others. Goes to therapy to manage it but it's tapping deep into that trust fund. Also the kids do love their dad bc they can see Dick's trying and also there's an example of a worse dad (Tim) closeby

Bonus points if Tim on multiple occasions tries to tell Dick how to raise the kids/treat them better and everybody's like dude you don't even get to SEE your kids. Bruce has more credit than you (believability and financially). Tim is probably trying to redeem his bad parenting by trying to be good to Dick's kids but they dgaf and just roast him. Bet Tim caught them playing house a few times where the scenarios were eerily close to his messy divorces

I keep going back and forth on who dicks one divorce should be between babs, kori and Roy- kori and Roy are good bc they both have canon kids which means I don't have to come up with little oc children (ocs in general really aren't my wheel house so getting out of designing a kid for dick would be amazing) but on the other hand I really don't like dickbabs as a relationship so to be able to have an outlet for that dislike by saying yeah they'd definitely get divorced is very tempting - I don't think dick has full custody I think he is doing better then tim but that bar is low and that basically just means he has visitation rights - a few people have suggested I make dick a cop again but thats a wee bit too depressing an outcome even for this au so I'm thinking instead dick was a cop again for a time but his efforts to fix the force from the inside just resulted in him making more enemies as dick grayson that have really been fucking up his life

Man, with how vague Splatoon is about its lore/plot points sometimes, I’m very wary of people who claim there is One Definitive Interpretation of this that or the other thing. Like no, just because the game uses they/them pronouns for Captain 3 doesn't mean giving them any other pronouns is misgendering. Like, unless you have something from actual canon (ie. the games themselves or dev interviews) to back it up, then I don't think it's fair to expect people to Universally Agree With You or Else. Going "This is how I see things, I really don't like it when people see it this other way" is fine but "This is how I see things, I am RIGHT and anyone who thinks otherwise is WRONG" is not. People have different opinions. You are not obligated to agree with them, but at the same time, they are not obligated to agree with you.

People really think trust issues are just "aww they're scared of love" and it's like bitch no. Trust issues as in I'm deeply in love and the issue is I'm waiting for you break my heart after undergoing periodic abuse in relationships. I'm not scared of love I'm scared of what you'll do with it.
