#just stuff I noticed

Here’s some fun Christmas-y observations I made—

I wanted to again point out how clever the secret Santa gifts were in the end credits of the 12 days of Christmas episode, because not only did each side give each other a gift that they knew they would really like, the gifts themselves are reflections of the side that gave them…

Logan gives Virgil a gift card to spend in podcasts/music/whatever. So Virgil is happy because he loves music for blocking out his thoughts/calming himself down, a gift card is probably the least creative and most efficient gift someone can give because Logan is efficient and lacks creativity or sentimentality.

Roman gives Logan a novel he wrote. Perfect for Logan because Logan love books, especially mysteries, plus Roman just spoils the ending for him and it’s fine because Logan would think that’s just a fact worth knowing. But it’s also perfect from Roman because he gets to express his creativity and write a long book that he knows Logan will enjoy.

Patton gives Roman pasta. So not only did Patton give Roman his favourite food, but it was a way for Pat to cook, since he loves food too, and to make Roman something that he can truly express his affection for him with.

And finally Virgil gives Patton a card of original art. So Patton can feel the love that went into making this card, but it’s also a great gift from Virgil because he gets to show that he also draws to help ease his anxiety AND a drawing is something a child would make for their parent—

I’d also like to point out all the gifts except Logan’s were homemade with that side in mind. These gifts had emotion and creativity attached to them. Logan’s was bought with good intentions but no emotional attachment. Therefore if Virgil hated the gift, Logan wouldn’t be disappointed.

The way they both have their hands on the item they carry on their belts. The way they are doing the same pose, and the same expression.

my top bit of advice going into the new year: compliment people. especially strangers. literally everyone you interact with if you can. when you buy coffee in the morning compliment the barista's tattoos. when you're chatting with a coworker tell them that by the way you like their outfit. always find something they've chosen to do on purpose. nail polish, jewellery, tattoos, hair colour/style, statement accessory, outfit, etc are all good bets. things people hope will be noticed. things that aren't too personal so it doesn't make them uncomfortable (eg probably not their physical features). i've gotten into the habit of scanning everyone i talk to for something about them that i think is cool so i can tell them. it's a great habit because it makes me notice people and realise just how many neat little details there are in people's presentation of themselves that might pass me by if i wasn't paying attention. and it brings out so much joy. you'd be surprised how much it disarms people to receive an unexpected compliment from someone they don't know. it is the most sincere smile you will see all day long. it feels nice to make people happy but it also means you win the social interaction. establish dominance by complimenting a stranger's earrings and disappearing into the fog

You know those aesthetic image posts that float around tumblr? I'm . . . starting to see a lot on my dash that are obviously ai-generated. Are non-artists having trouble telling the difference between AI images and real photos, or are people starting to stop care about the stolen art that gets fed into those programs?

Dazai canonically rambling about his loved ones at every possible opportunity is so dear to me.

Mori knew a lot of the things he did about Oda because Dazai told him. Akutagawa also knew about Oda and how important he is to Dazai because of Dazai's ramblings. Random, unnamed PM members know about Oda being very dear to Dazai, because Dazai praises him and talks about how great he is.

Chuuya knew straight away that Dazai had been speaking about him to the ADA. It wasn't something he expressed feeling betrayed or suprised about. It was just an immediate understanding that of all the ways they could probably have known about him and his ability despite it being confidential information in the PM, Dazai's ramblings were most likely the reason.

The way that Dazai speaks about Ranpo to quite literally anyone who will listen. To Fydor, to random cops, to Atsushi.

Dazai canonically brags about the people he cares about in an 'omg omg omg my person my people I love them look how amazing they are' way.

when obi-wan said 'I won't kill anakin' and then spent the entire rest of his life following through on that. fuck everyone else obi-wan I respect you yoda should've taken you at your fucking word

'boohoo why did he walk away and not kill anakin this time either even with all the suffering he'll go on to cause if he lets him go' he's told you why very clearly you just didn't believe him I guess!! desperately not killing anakin is obi-wan's main export. it's his universal constant, his life's work, his magnum opus. he gets creative about not killing that guy. he tries to send anakin's teenage twink son to do the job for him because he simply can't. he fucking... peaces out and dies to avoid killing anakin. that's like his whole deal. whether he's right to be like this is another entirely separate conversation but it is what he is

Danny Fenton, aka Phantom, has been given a new task!

In short, literally no one in the Ghost Zone/Infinite Realms wants their mostly peaceful afterlife to be rocked by a certain Gotham rogue named Joker. Which, when he dies, is almost sure to happen because of whatever the hell was in that vat he dropped in included ectoplasm. So, yay, he’s also a little ghostly too, meaning he *is* pretty hard to kill. Unfortunately, there’s also a certain vigilante that is quite keen to murder him in recent years.

So now Danny has to keep the mass murderer trauma clown alive for as long as he possibly can while attempting to keep the Joker from. Well. Being the Joker.

Oh, and naturally, Danny got this assignment AFTER Joker got out of Arkham. Again. And entirely blew up the asylum. Time to join the Goonion, he is NOT doing this without getting PAID, thank you.
