I'm honestly shocked by just how good Caged Again is??

Reading the summary I wanted to try it bc it sounded so extremely unhinged and stupid I simply had to see what it was like. And then I started it and yes it was so silly and pretty unhinged for the usual Thai bls standard, but it's also incredibly well done, the characters are the cutest thing ever, they're extremely interesting and compelling and I loved how they're going against the usual dynamic and relationship tropes.

Still, even though there clearly was a more solid plot than simply the romance, I was not expecting the turn of events we had in this episode! Like?? The silly little show about animals turning into humans isn't very silly anymore! And I'm all here for it, honestly, but also how dare they make Junior cry, who dared to hurt Sun so much - I'm going to hunt them down I swear

I don’t know how I’ve just realized this but like we’ve had a lot of injustice this season considering the fact that the big mystery is surrounding a fallen goddess of justice

Like we got

Riz possibly not being able to get into college

Sklonda having her pension withheld for no reason

Fig getting dropped from her record label

Gorgug having to take three years of artificer at once because he’s too nice (eventually having to shed that part of himself at times to succeed)

Fabian finally getting to go home to his mom after not seeing her for months only for her to immediately leave him alone for months on end when he clearly doesn’t know how to fend for himself

Adaine not performing well in class because she can’t afford her class despite having saved the world and literally being the elven oracle

Kristen literally getting expelled for something that had been cleared up before despite literally earning and working her ass off for an A

The Ratgrinders being so much farther ahead in everything than the Bad Kids because they found a way to cheat the system despite the Bad Kids literally saving the world

Like this definitely has something to do with the bringing back of the corrupted goddess of justice right?

Hear me out.

Joker junior Tim and as a treat he gets his own Harley Quinn (Bernard)

This was inspired off of a post that showed a bunch of comic panels with Bernard using a variety of random vaguely weapon shaped things to beat people up and someone mentioned giving him a giant hammer like harley.

I have no chill

Anyways i like this. Bernard being off his rocker due to the pain cult or whatever and Joker junior tim is a given.

Might write a little oneshot. Would anyone like that? Idk

idk if this is accurate but i’ve felt like in previous seasons riz & gorgug have been one of the inter-bad kids dynamics we’ve seen the least of & this season has been so great in that aspect. gorgug having helped make some of riz’s magic gear. riz helping gorgug with his studies. the shared birthday party. gorgug’s gift to riz being something he himself made to protect riz. riz’s gift to gorgug being something he illegally grabbed to protect gorgug. gorgug who utilizes rage to put his body on the line for his friends & riz who will take deep levels of mental stress for his friends. even though it was within the context of a joke, riz calling gorgug an “absolute sweetie.” like yea they might not be in a band together or both part of a presidential campaign team or owlbears teammates, but they’d go to war for each other, because they’re best friends.

Okay why did "everyone has to have a least favourite friend" actually hurt me a little

[greatvaluegirlfriend]

they referenced/implied this in the episode and adventuring party but the concept that the rat grinders, as a party, are so into min-maxing and power leveling that they not only optimize themselves but also their party, resulting in kipperlily and other(s) KILLING the most inefficient member?

this is the horror campaign

lily: none of my friends can understand why i even talk to you! i’ve been making excuses for you for years—you and your precious little death eater friends!

lily: but you call everyone of my birth a mudblood, severus

snape fans: everyone at hogwarts (and not just the rich guys) hates snape because he’s a poor ugly weirdo! “weirdos” and ugly people are additional oppressed classes in britain! #british class system #class analysis

While I do love the (main) characterisation of Barty Crouch Jr in this fandom (he livens things up for sure) I had a different way of thinking of him.

First of all, I always thought he'd be a ravenclaw (some fics do have ravenclaw Barty which I loveee) that boy got 12 owls, he was a proper nerd.

In most fics (that I have read at least) Barty is a bit of a 'crazy guy' who is doing everything he can to piss off his dad. While I think this is accurate, I think this happened a lot later - not during his Hogwarts years.

The way I picture Barty is a golden boy - perfect grades, prefect, never gets in trouble, friendly, his teachers like him. However, even though he does all of this, he's still not good enough for his father. I think Barty would spend most of his teenage years trying to live up to his dad's expectations - its only when he leaves school and goes into the world that he realises he doesn't need to do this.

I think that that is when Barty would of flipped out. I mean, at the trial, Crouch Senior is in shock - he never expected this of his own son. Sirius even says in gof "he might have been in the wrong place at the wrong time" - if Barty had been a rebellious nutcase at school, Sirius would probably not have had such doubts of Barty's guilt.

I like the storyline of Barty being a quiet, studious ravenclaw at school - following in his father's footsteps - and only when leaving school does he realise that his father doesn't see him, will never truly see him, so Barty falls in with the death eaters. To quietly, but surely, do the absolute worst betrayal he could think of - become the very thing Crouch Senior is fighting against.

Just. Thoughts?? I think this would make his character very interesting, but I've never really seen him portrayed that way. (Any fic recs??) I mean, even in atyd he's a total dick who's attacking muggleborns. I really think Barty would be a star student who turns sour when it's least expected.

It will forever piss me off that people need to make one part of rosekiller some uwu feminine soft boy when they’re literally the most dudebro ship out there

There’s something about morally grey Tim Drake. I am so attached to the idea that Tim just says fuck it to the no killing rule. I so see him favour blowing whole ass warehouses up. He wouldn’t go out of his way to just be murderous and he wouldn’t do it to like your everyday thug but a serial killer here, a trafficker there, so what if his punches are a little harder… if anyone has any fic recs this is my official request
