Breaking News - Bruce Wayne vs the Joker; the battle of June and Lines

Breaking News; our story tonight, Gotham’s resident pretty boy versus our resident liege of infamy in a showdown at Junes and Lines (see related articles).

Earlier this evening several 9-1-1 calls were placed to the GCPD (see related articles) by a myriad of civilians, the odd part being that they were all coming from the same place; the Gotham City (see related articles) Junes and Lines off the corner of 4th St and Manor Rd. The emergency? Bruce Wayne ( @officialbruciewayne ) (see related articles) allegedly going hand-to-hand with none other than the Joker ( @jokerwithcrowbar ) (see related articles).

The conflict begun after the Joker, real name Jack Oswald White (see related articles), allegedly threatened to kidnap a 4-year-old child (identity not disclosed). Presumably Mr. Wayne overheard this, as he promptly set down his many bags and proceeded to attack the Arkham-escapee.

The Joker had recently broken out of Arkham Asylum (see related articles) alongside several other Rogues, including (though not limited to), Bane (see related articles), the Penguin (see related articles), Dante Maroni (see related articles), and Catwoman (see related articles) when the confrontation occurred.

When asked, an eyewitness, who wishes to remain anonymous, stated the following -

“ So, he just drops the bags on the ground and just starts straight up beating that raggedy clowns ass. Someone got the whole thing on video too. Goddamn Brucie Wayne, didn’t know he had it in him if I��m being honest. ”

The notorious rogue was later taken into custody and will be returned to Arkham shortly. When asked whether or not Mr. Wayne would be facing any charges, GCPD Commissioner, Jim Gordon (see related articles), stated the following -

“ No, given the Jokers status as an Arkham Escapee, any action taken against him is considered self-defence. Be this as it may, we don’t encourage any Gothamite to attempt to fight one of the rogues, as it can go bad real fast. ”

We at this journal would like to echo this sentiment and urge Gotham’s Citizens to think twice before attempting to fight any rogue (see related articles).

On a lighter note, many videos of the confrontation have gone viral across multiple social media platforms, with Gothamites and netizens alike theorizing about where Mr. Wayne learned the techniques. Currently it is thought that he used a mix of boxing (see related articles) and judo (see related articles), though this journal has yet to find any concrete evidence of this being the case.

Last, and most importantly, the 4-year-old remains unharmed and has been returned to his family, with Mr. Wayne sustaining minor injury (abrasions and light bruising to his hands). No other civilians were harmed in the confrontation, nor by the Joker in the time between the Arkham escape and him being returned to custody, something that has never occurred before in the long history of the rogue (see related articles).

(About the omega fighter entering a tournament with only alpha’s)

Yes. Yes yes yes yes yesyesyesyesyES please 🙏 that sounds super fun also really like the notion of being an omega doesn’t just make you super weak or submissive. Like Fuck their shit up babe yes

A fighter wanting to break stereotypes of women/ Omegas being weak. An MMA fighter that specializes in lethwei/ Muay Thai

And she does exceptionally well for how small she is. The only issue is how interested these alphas are in her…

Character Intro: Poena (Kingdom of Ichor)

Nicknames- Mother by her daughters

Ms. Slaughter by Hermes, Thanatos, and Ares

The Dark Justice by the people of Olympius & the Underworld

Age- 49 (immortal)

Location- The Underworld

Personality- She's harsh, self-sufficient, a major grudge holder, & an uncompromising force with an unbreakable sense of morality and justice. She's currently single.

She has the standard abilities of a goddess except shapeshifting. As the goddess of punishment (as it relates to the punishment for the crime of murder & manslaughter), her other powers/abilities include umbrakinesis, limited necromancy & soul manipulation, truth sense, having an innate sense of a being's death (by way of an eerie buzzing sound that only she can hear), fire immunity, haemokinesis (blood manipulation), and having an innate knowledge of different order systems.

Poena lives by herself in a house built from onyx and Stygian Iron. Inside, the walls (which are built out of concrete) are bare- except for various mounted weaponry while the flooring is black brimstone. There's stainless steel appliances and Stygian Iron cupboards in the kitchen, leather furniture with glass & metal furniture pieces in the living room, as well as a basement filled with other weaponry and a wide variety of torture devices. In her bedroom the color scheme is black, black-blue, & blood red while her bed has a glittering obsidian headboard.

She has two pets- a screech owl named Shriek and a chimera named Dagger.

In the Underworld she gets around in her black sturdy car. When in New Olympus, she gets around by way of public transportation- like the train, bus, or a cab.

Notable features of Poena includes her striking alabaster skin, her short white blonde hair, and her attention grabbing height of 6''4! She's the tallest goddess in the pantheon.

In the mornings she starts off with a session with her acupuncturist followed by tai chi & meditation.

A go-to drink for her is red wine. She also likes beer, ginger ale, pomegranate juice, mulled wine, classic martinis, black russians, vampiro cocktails, and black martinis. A usual from The Roasted Bean is an olympian sized iced dark roast coffee.

She absolutely hates tattoos & piercings of any kind.

Poena is the mother and sole parent of her daughters Megaera, Alecto, & Tisiphone- otherwise known collectively as The Furies. She got pregnant on her own with the fertility services offered by Gaia (goddess of the earth). Other than her pets, Poena cares deeply for her girls. Because of their busy schedules, they don't get to spend time together often, so they're constantly keeping in touch through text. When they do have down time, a favorite pasttime of Poena and her daughters is lava surfing by the currents of the River Phlegethon. They also love visiting the Stygios Gun Range.

She doesn't wear much makeup except for mascara, black liquid eyeliner, & powder.

A favorite accessory of hers that she always wears on her clothes is her platinum scales of justice brooch pin.

Poena's fashion style is very structured with high neck shirts & blouses, leather pieces, tailored pants and knee length skirts, minimalist jewelry, boots, & stiletto heels. Black, white, gray, and red are major colors.

A typical breakfast for her is a bowl of whole grain oatmeal topped with dark chocolate chips, dried cherries, blackberries, & pomegranate syrup. She also likes burnt strips of bacon along with sesame crusted tuna tataki.

Poena has two assistants- a lampade named Darcy and an empousa named Enya. She says that without them helping out with her workload, she would've gone mad a long time ago.

She's well versed in pressure point martial arts, jui-jitsu, and lethwei styles of fighting.

Her favorite frozen treat is black licorice ice cream.

Poena has "an eye of an eye" way of looking at things when it comes to the world & the criminal justice system. She's a firm proponent of the death penalty.

She enjoys listening to rap, classical, and heavy metal music.

A thorned black rose is her favorite flower.

Poena is a licensed lawyer. Her office is located in the Shadowstone neighborhood of New Olympus. For other means of income, she also teaches the criminal justice class at the New Olympus School of Law and she's also the head executioner (an official who carries out a sentence of death on a legally condemned being) at Chlotonius Prison- the most notorious maximum security facility in Olympius. Poena works there alongside the prison's warden Ponos (god of hard labor & toil). Means of execution carried out includes the guillotine, hanging, lethal injection, electrocution, gas chamber, firing squad, and being burned alive. She also writes for the crime section in The Oracle newspaper.

Poena is currently developing a signature parfum. She hasn't decided on a name or the design of the perfume bottle, but has settled on the fragrance notes- jasmine, belladonna, orchid, saffron, pomegranate, musk, incense, honey, & blackberry.

She loves snacking on mint charcoal gum.

The steak salad drizzled in extra creamy balsamic vinaigrette dressing is her favorite thing to get at The Bread Box.

In the pantheon she's friends with Acheron (Titan god of pain), his wife Orphne (a lampade), Styx (Titaness of hatred), Asteria (Titaness of falling stars, astrology, magic, necromancy, & nocturnal oracles and prophecies), Geras (god of old age), Enyo (goddess of war, destruction, bloodlust, & devastation), Nyx (goddess of the night), Amphillogia (goddess of arguments, disputes, & altercations), Erebus (god of darkness), Lycana (Titaness of lycanthropy), and Amechania (goddess of helplessness & want).

Poena was the official mentor towards Nemesis (goddess of retribution).

She's also quite fond of The Moirai.

She doesn't like Empusa (goddess of shapeshifting) and thinks that Themis (Titaness of justice) is a self-righteous pretentious poser with a lax view on justice.

Her & Nyx rode dragons throughout the Underworld together one night. The Mother of Darkness rode Mysterion while Poena rode Nyx's other dragon Rhaegara.

In the pantheon she's known for her addictive cherry pie!

On TV she loves watching true crime programs, the news, gothic black & white movies, as well as episodes of The Agnostic Network- which is hosted by Momus (god of mockery, satire, & ridicule).

Poena's carnal proclivities are quite particular. She enjoys hardcore BDSM, power play, erotic asphyxiation, as well as being gagged, slapped, and tied with rope. Poena is a dom towards a lotus eater named Valdus while she is a sub to the giant Geryon. After an intense session involving a pyrotechnic bullwhip with her body covered in gashes & stained with ichor, Poena enjoys the aftercare Geryon provides for her- washing her hair, setting up a bubble bath with lavender soap, putting ambrosia ointment on her wounds, and providing an ice pack. They cuddle & fall asleep afterwards.

She's a frequent attendee at The Alpha Room, A BDSM themed club owned by Menoetius (Titan god of rage, violence, & rash actions).

Poena's favorite meal is chili crusted salmon with grilled asparagus.

In her free time she also enjoys boxing, working out, chess, sword dueling, axe throwing, basketball, reading, mixed martial arts, ink painting, going to museums, and ice hockey.

"In nature there are neither rewards nor punishments; there are only consequences."

Henson, again.

[amostdelectablescribbler]

writeblr i seek council. i have a character in my new wip along the lines of Juri Han from Street Fighter, but hornier and i cannot think of a name. Please halp. The name i’ve decided isn’t good enough was Maia, next to a cast of Kez, Red, Spectre and Avarice. The intro goes like:

Maia, on the other hand, was hung-over with a splitting headache and sore thighs from last night. She was an impulsive party animal, put on the earth to ride highs and have fun with no regard for consequences. She was only permitted to stay because she fought as hard as she fucked, and in keeping with the rest of her character, she was almost always horny or doing something about it. 

Even with her obscene lifestyle, she kept in decent shape, although not half as sharp as her sister’s. All she had to work with was a small waist, pretty face and a bottom-heavy build, which, given a hell of a stretching routine, allowed her to bend herself into a pretzel mid-fight. This only helped because she was really good at Lethwei, allowing her to swing her legs so fast and high that they were nearly impossible to block. 

pls help? ówò

what mental illness makes a person get into lethwei?

[taughtdefense-a]

johnny training ethan in eag.le-fang techniques, either during s5 or in s6, is SO good. it’s very important to me & to ethan. not only is it a bonding experience, it’s for ethan to showcase what he really knows about karate ( & other forms of fighting ). & of course to learn everything johnny knows ( duh ), because he respects the hell out his sensei. genuine knowledge about many different ( seemingly all ) fighting styles simultaneously floors & delights johnny to no end. ethan is a quick learner, & he can understand/switch to different fighting styles on the fly, pretty much as easily as one breathes.

as an example, ethan can switch from utilizing wado-ryu ( karate ), to lethwei ( kickboxing ), to icho-ryu ( a martial art blending goju ryu karate, judo, jujutsu, & aikido ) in record time.

this switch & his knowledge makes him HIGHLY unpredictable in fights, esp. in s6 when it will air.

miyagi!ethan hides his genuine knowledge/abilities from s1-s5 ( but the Rising Bloodlust in s5 against silver makes ethan slowly stop holding himself back, wether against people in the sekai taikai or during the dojo-wide brawl in the finale ) his back some of that & honestly probably even s6.

cobra!ethan doesn’t hide his knowledge in the slightest. THAT is terrifying.

this is specifically for my version of johnny, but other versions may adapt this small ramble / hc of johnny being surprised if they wish ( @ ray & @ nadia , there is absolutely no pressure to adapt to this ! this is just me Thinking. Rambling. being unhinged abt ethan wilson-keene as per usual )

Young Kivolka Learns Combat Sambo

Original line art done by Maex-Artistry, edited and colored (poorly) by me.

Already a Boxing and Wrestling expert, the young special operative takes a look at the then fledgling martial art of Sambo. She wasn't particularly impressed at first, but then she saw its militarized variant, Combat Sambo. Seeing the incredible potential of Combat Sambo not only as a form of weaponless self-defense, but as a sport in its own right, Kivolka raced to the first instructor she can find on base who can teach her.

"This 'Combat Sambo', or at least something like it, can possibly become a huge sport someday.".

Combat Sambo would turn out to be a 'gateway' martial art for the young fighter/soldier as the hybrid nature of it encouraged her to learn more martial arts later on like Lethwei and Taekwondo.

If you want your character drawn in a gi, Maex-Artistry is your gi guy!
