Every time I see a post complaining about MK1!Hanzo (and Kuairumi by extend), I feel tempted to reply as if I was a preacher, like:

"Hello, do you have a moment to hear the word of our lord, the Short King Hanzo, and join our prayers for Subscorprumi?🙏🏾🙏🏾"

I really admire people who seek out fansigns/fancalls/want to talk to their bias as a celebrity and a fan because this COULDN'T be me.

First of all I'd have no idea what to say whatosever.

Second of all I'd finally come up with something, but the guy wouldn't hear/understand me, he'd go "um sorry could you repeat that?" and I'd repeat that but he still wouldn't understand and I'd die on the spot out of sheer mortification.

Third of all we'd be talking but he'd make a face for a split second that I'd somehow interpret as disgust/displeasure/discomfort and I'd die on the spot.

Fourth of all he'd do the "gasp gasp, who's that on your phone wallpaper/why are you looking/taking pictures of other guys? Only Look At Me! ￣へ￣" bit, and my ick would be so strong that I wouldn't be able to stop it from flashing through my face. And I wouldn't know what to say. Or I'd go "haha sorryyyy" very unconvincingly. Or I'd say "haha um that's not cute to me sorry" with my own mouth. Either way I'd do something horrible and he'd feel uncomfortable and I would, you guessed it, die on the spot. It's just not worth it .

“...It was 2 o’clock in the morning and we’d been working pretty hard. Mickie Most behind the desk, looking like a fresh-faced high school kid, wasn’t ready to give up. As long as the band wanted to record, he’d be there, pencil in the mouth, sitting in the producer’s chair, feet up on the console. Relaxed. Over the intercom, into the main room, he spoke. It was the voice of God, the producer. ‘OK, if you guys feel you’ve got something else to come up with, we need a B side for the new single. Have you got anything?' In the middle of the room AP sat behind the red-topped Vox Continental, his feet nervously tapping out a fast gospel-type rhythm, his fingers skating up and down the keyboard surrounded by baffling and studio blankets.

He was playing fast, uptempo, hot and nasty gospel. I was in the isolation booth, headphones clamped on my head. Pricey opened, swirling through the changes.” - Eric Burdon, I Used to Be an Animal, but I’m All Right Now, 1986 (p. 132).

I don't think Y'akk understand how damn funny a DC Isekai would be.

Character (will henceforth be labeled Alex for ease of typing) just... gets hit by a bus or goes through a portal and ends up in DC. Said person quickly triangulates their location and has a few decisions to make. Should they approach Superman, Batman, Green Arrow, or Flash. They have consistent locations, and will likely have varying reactions.

Clark

Walk up to him at the DP and he will shit his pants if you call him Superman. Go all geeky on Alex, but if they keep insisting he takes them into a closet and asks how the fck they know who he is. An hour later said person is being served a cup of cocoa in his apartment while they try and figure out which damn DC timeline they're in

Oliver

Honestly I have no idea how this one would go because if it's CW!Arrow you are so dead but if it's like YJ!Green Arrow or JLU!Green Arrow you're fine and probably ending up in the hall of justice.

Barry/Wally

CW!Barry would just brush it off like another tuesday and try and get you back in your timeline. JLU!Wally would bring you to the watchtower and (because that design is so recognisable) be chastised by that Batman, but then Alex would end up a support staff/trusted advisor (Batsy has the biggest soft spot for JLU!Flash change my mind)

Bruce

If they walk up to the Manor and manage to make it past Alfred, it would probably end up like Tim or just a Support person, but depending on the timeline they would be dead. Like Arkham bats would do something crazy like lock them up in the Batcave or something extreme because they're a threat to the safety of Gotham, while Young Justice batman would be like 'damn another kid, oh no robin is giving me the eyes, sht I can't say no' while 2004 The Batman would set said person up in a safer city. All of them would ask for a timeline of sorts.

(I'm not familiar with the DCAMU enough to speak about it here.)

It Looks Like Doctor Who Missing Episode Animations Will Be on BBC iPlayer Too!

It Looks Like #DoctorWho Missing Episode Animations Will Be on BBC iPlayer Too!

Animated versions of missing Doctor Who episodes are likely to be included in the haul of over 800 episodes from the Whoniverse being added to BBC iPlayer to celebrate the show’s 60th anniversary. When it was announced that the back-catalogue of Doctor Who would be coming to the streaming service, alongside spin-off material like The Sarah Jane Adventures and Doctor Who Confidential, many fans…

every fandom i'm in i'm like "oh i'm gonna write them all just hanging out and having a good time at a mountain house" n then i never do but THIS TIME it's a PLOT POINT in the modern au so i have to (they say, ignoring the fact that they're not actually planning to write the modern au)
