#like he'll insult you enough that it's obvious he's Mad. but it's never obvious what part of what you said Made him mad

[talentforlying]

WHAT IS YOUR RAGE LANGUAGE?

MEN, RAISE THE DRAWBRIDGE. when you're angry, all your defenses go up. the unfortunate person or thing that managed to piss you off is suddenly talking to a wall. on the inside, you're screaming and crying and cussing them out, but somehow you can't express it. you're blank. emotionless. to anyone's knowledge, you could be zoning out of a lecture. because of this, it's hard to express how you're feeling when the person asks for your thoughts. you've choked your feelings down, and they won't come back up.

first year gang (+ grim if that's okay) reacting to yuu/mc getting heavily injured in front of them and losing lots of blood? (mostly from overblot)

it can be plantonic or romantic

Another request to go ! Thank you for requesting Anon, I'm so sorry it came out so late. I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I loved doing it.

Content : You get heavily injured in a fight with another overblot, how do the first years individually react to such a devastating sight ?

Warning(s) : mentions of blood and injury, reader is gender neutral so they/them, it can be platonic or romantic whatever suits your taste, might have cussing ? idk. Anyways, have a fun time reading.

First years reacting to mc/yuu getting hurt :

Ace Trappola

If I remember correctly, an insult was enough to make him worked up. He literally punched the living sh*t out of his dorm leader, so try imagining what would happen if you got physically injured.

His mind instantly snaps upon seeing you get hurt, he may sometimes act like a jerk. But no one hurts his best friend.

Especially you.

Loses his temper, will try to murder whoever is over blotting even if they're not mentally stable.

hell he isn't either, after they turn back to normal, he won't hesitate to slap them across the face and spit as many insults there is.

When you're brought to the school nurse, he isn't coming because he's not done with your attacker but Ace will shoot you an anxious glance.

Once you heal up, this guy will fucking scold you but he means good. For once you're not the mom of the group.

"What kind of idiot jumps right in front of strike ?! You're lucky we saved you or you would've been dead by now stupid-"

He's not nice about it cause you made him way too worried. He's supposed to be the one messing around, don't be so reckless especially if your life is at stake.

Doesn't mind fun but not the type of fun that's gonna get you killed.

"*sigh* just c'mere- Yeah don't ask why I'm hugging you, that answer is FAIRLY OBVIOUS !"

Deuce spade

Deuce is one of the first to check up on you and your injury, if you're unconscious he's going to repeatedly call out your name and beg you to wake up.

He's panicking, and he knows that it doesn't help the situation. But fear quickly turned into anger by the time you were put to safety.

"You...HOW DARE YOU HURT THEM ?! YOU SICK BASTARD !"

There goes that guy, rest his soul cause getting killed by deuce is the exact opposite of he died peacefully in his sleep.

after a couple days, you would be fully recovered and you can bet this blue haired ex-delinquent will be all over you.

He'll scold you too but not as much as Ace, deuce is a sweet idiot and honestly I love him for it.

Deuce is trying his best but he can't help being mad at himself for not being able to protect you, you're his best friend/Lover !

You need to reassure him that you're fine and that's enough, he's glad you're trying to cheer him up but YOU'RE THE ONE WITH A RUPTURED SPINE- HOW THE HELL IS THAT FAIR ?!

"Repeat after me : I promise.." "Deuce this is stupid" "NO, say 'I promise..?" "...I promise..." "TO NEVER BECOME A HUMAN SHIELD"

"...."

"Just do it."

"...I promise I won't become a....human shield..?"

Epel Felmier

Ok this man is loosing his temper. But like imagine the : you called him a girl temper, now reimagine that but then triple the anger.

Yup.

That attacker/overblot dude is dead, he's about to die.

Like Epel doesn't even need help he's already cowboying his way through- wait is that a damn lasso.

Destroying the whole area as if he was an active tornado just obliterating everything and everyone.

Epel is most likely to stand by this quote : "You mess with them/her/him, you mess with me."

Doesn't matter if you're just his friend or partner, that man has loyalty and he is going to tackle anyone in the stomach just for looking at you the wrong way.

He may look pretty but he is deadly, I can assure you that no need to test it.

He won't be panicking when you recover, he's just gonna be relieved you're ok.

Will probably pout a little cause you worried him so much but besides that he hopes that you won't pull a stunt like that again.

"I'm glad to see that you're doing alright.."

Sebek Zigvolt

Ok this one. Is pissed.

He's not gonna let that offense go, you and wake-sama are placed on an equal pedestal so it means that if you get hurt then that means the only suitable punishment to the cause is d e a t h.

Crocodile Sebek goes BRRRRRRRR-

Proceeds to annihilate the bastard, like have some fucking mercy dude- I have never seen a scrope pounding this severe in my whole entire life.

yeah no, the victim isn't getting up after getting his balls turned into a size eleven sneaker.

Sebek is gonna give you those 4 hour lectures when you wake up and there is no escaping it cause you got a leg turned into mash potato.

"And so that is why you should NEVER put yourself in danger EVER again-"

"EPel please save me"

"Where do you think you're going ?!"

🎶RUN FAST FOR YOUR MOTHER, FAST FOR YOUR FATHER~ !!!

RUN FOR YOUR CHILDREN, FOR YOUR SISTERS AND BROTHERS 🎶

🎶LEAVE ALL YOUR LOVE AND YOUR LONGING BEHIND-!!

YOU CAN'T CARRY IT WITH YOU IF YOU WANT TO SURVIVE~🎶

THE DOG DAYS ARE OVER-ER !!!

Sorry I got carried away, I just love this song so much T_T.

Running through the halls like a one-legged track star as students just hear Sebek yelling from the other side of campus.

Jack Howl

Ok he turns into big wolf boy the second he takes the sight of you getting hit and heavily injured.

He is going to eat that overbold guy alive, no questions asked.

He was baring his teeth before now he's full on destroying them into oblivion.

Man gets angry, growling was a warning until they crossed the damn line by putting you in danger.

"I WON'T FORGIVE YOU FOR THIS !"

Now it doesn't really matter wether he's your partner, best friend or some kind of family figure. Cause that man is guarantee the best guy to have around, like...LOOK AT HIM !?

he may act tough but he's a real softie that does his best to play fair and square.

No matter what you see him as, Jack is protective and looks after to you. Even more than you can do actually !

Once the fight is over, he's going to the nurse to check up on you.

When he sees that you're out of harms way he's gonna grumble a little bit.

"You really are reckless, don't pull a stunt like that again..Uh ?! No I wasn't worried ! You're strong, there is no way that kind of injury would be able to take you out anyway. But still...I'm glad to see you're alright."

I know this isn't very good, I'm sorry for not being active as much these days but since it's now the holidays. I'll be posting a lot more with how much time I got !

Thank you for reading !

[cebwrites]

Hey dude! How you doing?

I've been around a while and it's taken me a bit of guts to ask but like

I'm a bit of a short guy you know? I was wondering if you'd be okay with me asking if you could write something..maybe between Sanji and a short dude?

I can never find anything with short guys and you're like.. a gold mine lmao

Have a nice day bro ✌️ thanks if you do thanks still if ya don't 👊

a/n: how i'm doing is exploding from your sweet ask, this is so cute!! goldmine aaaa you flatter me anon 🥺🥺💞💓💖 from one short king to another, i've got your back bro 🤝💖

with a short boyfriend (Sanji)

masc reader, flaming bi sneej under the cut word count: 0.6k

He was a tad hesitant to admit it at first, wanting to seem "cool and aloof" enough to maintain whatever image he thought lived in your head, but he loves having a short boyfriend

You're short enough to rest his chin on your head as you do the dishes, perfect for him to scoop into his arms and descend on you with a flurry or kisses, you look angelic to him when his clothes hang just a little bit over your knees, you're pocket-sized even!

Okay, maybe he's letting himself get a little carried away with that last point, but point is he's so damn in love with you and Sanji will literally find anything and everything about you to fawn over down to the minute detail

He loves picking things off high shelves for you, even if you do give him a look afterwards and your staircase is right there, but what he loves even more is picking you up and putting you on the counter to watch him fuss over a pot of something warm for the crew

On at least one occasion though, the two of you got a little carried away with snogging by the stove that neither noticed the burning smoke until Franky's sprinkler system doused everything in 17 gallons of water - you were spared most of the chewing out but Franky and Sanji argued for weeks over the ruined spices

Of course none of the cooing and cawing is meant to undermine or infantilize you, the last thing Sanji wants to do is insult his own damn lover, he's just full of too much affection than he knows what to do it - so if you ask him to tone it down a smidge or stop (specifically about your size) he'll respect your wishes

There isn't a single treasure in the world, not even the All Blue itself, that could convince him to stop him from showering his love for you as a whole, however, that's simply who he is as a person

Although, it'd be misleading to say that Sanji wasn't more intrigued by your feats of strength - however grand or mundane, physical or emotional - and that he didn't want to kyaaaa~!!! on the sidelines when you pulled off a particularly cool move

Sparring against Zoro or Robin, his cheers for her pale in comparison to the "__-SWAN~!!"s you get tossed your way (although she does get her fair share of compliments)

As much as Sanji likes cuddling you in his lap, you make him feel just as fluttery and fruity when you pull him into yours - kissing along the line of his back, his shoulder blades, pressing sweet purrs of compliments against the shell of his ear while you grip such strong, muscular thighs

You tell him as much about your adoration for them, too

Sanji couldn't wish for a partner he loved more than you, he wants to spend all the time he can with you and plant as many "embarrassing" smooches on your forehead when you walk by or hang around him in the kitchen as you'll allow

It was fine at first, endearing even, but once Sanji started wearing lipstick on and off the obvious marks front and center on your face were at least a little (a lot) tease-worthy from the rest of the crew

But you let him get away with it and never stay mad too long - especially when he gives you his patented soggy babygirl expression, pouty lip and all - because you love that man more than light itself and you'll admit that it's still a bit cute, at least

[glambots]

sun, moon, Roxy and Freddy ((separate)) when they get into an argument with their s/o?

🎩Glamrock-Freddy + "Arguing With Their S/O:" 🎩

⭐Freddy hardly ever argues with you. He just doesn't really have it in him to bicker, even if something really, really bothers him. There's a chance he'll bring it up, but never in a way that's asking for a fight. He wants you to trust him and for your relationship to be built on a mutual understanding of one another.

⭐You can still tell when he's upset, though. Not mad, because it's nearly impossible to make Freddy genuinely angry, but definitely disappointed. His words are shorter, his tone more clipped, and he makes an obvious effort not to give you the attention you're seeking. ...He might be giving you the cold-shoulder. Just a little bit.

⭐He does eventually apologize. Even if he's upset, taking it out on you in such a childish way isn't fair. If he wants clear communication in a relationship, then he has to put in effort to get there, right? So, he hopes that by taking the first step, you'll follow suit. Out of everyone, his reaction is the healthiest, by far.

☀️Sunnydrop + "Arguing With Their S/O:"☀️

⭐There are a few things that Sun will argue with you about, but they're mostly related to his need to follow the rules and various other anxieties he deals with (the cleaning, the lights issue, etc etc). He can usually be talked down from his spirals if you handle things gently enough. But there are still some bad days.

⭐The more irritated he gets during an argument, the more he acts like a toddler throwing a tantrum. Stomping his foot, huffing and puffing, and if you make him mad enough he might even yell at you. By that point, he just makes the decision to "ban" you from the Daycare until he cools off again.

⭐No matter how bad your argument is, he always feels incredibly guilty about how he acted after--he should know better than that!!! And now you probably hate him, and you're never going to want to talk to him again and you'll probably want to leave and never come back and--!!! The guilt eats him up inside to the point that it Hurts.

🌙Moondrop + "Arguing With Their S/O:"🌙

⭐Moon is a lot more combative than he thinks. Of course, he's a stickler for the rules and stuff like that, but his jealous streak can also be a big issue. He's just so used to having control over most situations that having someone try to "challenge" that control immediately makes him defensive. Which, in turn, causes him to lash out.

⭐His immediate reaction whenever you argue is to try and intimidate you into backing down. Getting in your face, pinning you up against whatever surface you're closest to, and overall being a Grade-A Asshole. It's only once he realizes what he's done/doing does he resort to Option B: flee (like the big butthurt baby that he is).

⭐He spends a lot of time stuck in his own little pity party afterwards. He wouldn't blame you if you never wanted to see him again. It's probably better if you don't. Truthfully, Moon feels really bad about fighting with you and he really wants to tell you that he's sorry, but he just...doesn't know how. He's never had to, before now.

🐺Roxanne Wolf + "Arguing With Their S/O:"🐺

⭐Roxy knows that she tends to be the one who's picking fights when it comes to the two of you, but...she can't help it. There are just times when she starts beating herself up and then she gets sad, and then she gets mad, and then she lashes out at whoever's closest--and sometimes that person just so happens to be you.

⭐They're less of big arguments and more spur of the moment insults that she snaps without thinking. Only to realize what she's said the second it leaves her lips...and crumble at the realization that she really is nothing but a total loser. She couldn't even let the one person she loves the most close enough to comfort her. Why is she like this?

⭐She eventually just screams at you to "GET OUT!" and then spends a little bit of time avoiding you out of sheer guilt. It usually takes some pushing from Chica and/or Freddy to get her to finally approach you in order to make up, and she ends up breaking down again mid-apology. Wow, she can't even do this right!

[agentgumsh0e]

agents having a crush on you (cypher, sova, yoru, phoenix, kay/o)

word count: 800+

warnings: none

he doubts his growing crush on you, pt. 2

confessing to you, pt. 3

cypher

most simple way to put him crushing is flirting with you right under your nose. he’s so smooth you can't even tell he’s doing it as he subtly says what he likes about you and plays it off as a light tease. what's more is that, though he likes chatting in general, he finds that he enjoys talking with you the most since you're just so special to him. he feels determined to learn about you without information broking and to learn things that his amassed databases could not tell him. one day, when you were winding down after a mission, you just started talking with him. during your conversation, he realized that he liked your company and found you so interesting. he came to the conclusion that he probably likes you, so he did not hesitate to act on this notion. after that, he always invites you to his workshop to help him make gadgets, the kitchen to brew late-night coffee, or just to do anything really. he basically acts like he's already in a relationship with you without all the displays of affection.

sova

you probably couldn't tell if he was crushing on you. he always gives friendly compliments and praises to everyone, but if you can somehow notice that fond, warm look he gives only you, it all becomes obvious that he has eyes for you. even with his efforts not to get caught that easily, he still flusters a little when you catch him staring, when you touch him, or when he's commending you. while he's open to anything that'll let him stay by your side, he mostly wants to teach you how to hunt using a bow and arrow. sova doesn't chat as much as someone like cypher or phoenix would, so he prefers to admire watch and listen to your voice rather than speak. because of this, he realized his crush when you played around and fumbled with his bow, letting out a laugh that he definitely wanted to hear again.

yoru

his crush is pretty obvious. he flirts unabashedly as per usual but whenever he's feeling shyer, he can't get that stupid blush off his face. at times, he has to tear his eyes away from you. he wants to show off and leave a good impression on you (which he does), but sometimes he’s too embarrassed to say what he truly feels, so he comes off as a little too harsh with his insults. he tries to apologize with a small “sorry” when he sees your hurt expression. he realized his crush because despite being an irritable loner, he enjoys being with you and doesn’t find anything you do annoying (though he still calls you an idiot and whatnot). except, you keep making his heart feel weird. so annoying of you…do it again?

phoenix

he is the most obvious a person can get. he has a dopey smile whenever he talks to you or is around you, and he compliments you a lot more than just a friend would. everyone knows that he likes you and teases him for thinking that he's doing a good job hiding it, but somehow you're the only oblivious one. he likes doing fun stuff with you, like some training exercises where he can make you smile and laugh, but if you want to chill out with him, he'll gladly do so. he realized his crush when he heard you compliment him to another agent and say that he's cool. he just started blushing like mad and became a little warmer in body temperature (probably bursting into tiny sparks of flames). if anyone else was speaking good about him, he would simply brush it off and be like “i already know” or “don't need to tell me twice”, but from you, he wants to hear you say it again (and maybe exchange some of his own).

kay/o

he's also really obvious since he claims to “malfunction” around you. you make him feel something entirely new and unheard of in his recorded database of emotions, and that's enough for him to think that something is wrong with his system. nothing’s wrong as he just has a crush, but he'll never figure that out himself unless you make a move first or if he goes to someone to be “repaired” or to ask for advice. he mostly tends to just charge himself, practice his abilities or his aim, or hang out with some familiar faces from alt timeline earth. however, he finds that whatever he's feeling when he's close to you is way better than training, “resting”, or taking breach’s money in billiards, so he follows you around a lot. there's just something about you that is so different from his current programming, and he can't help but want to learn more about (as he would come to find out) the strange error called having romantic feelings.

Infactuation

pairings; sam x darlin x quinn

summary; close isn't close enough

warnings; yandere!quinn, yandere!sam, stalking, obsession, possessive behaviour, quinn being quinn

@dolls-circus I hope you enjoy masochist

Quinn watched his little shifter from afar, as they walked toward their apartment building blissfully unaware of him following them. One of the benefits vampirism gave him was the ability to blend within the shadows, perfect for stalking prey.

Quinn drew closer, the hunger in his eyes growing by the second as their scent invades his senses and clouds his mind. Darlin is like a drug he couldn't get enough of, desperate for more.

The sadistic vampire pounced, grabbing them and clasping his hand over their mouth before the shifter could scream as he drags them into an alleyway.

"What the fuck-

Quinn shoves them into a wall, grinning as they struggled against his grasp. This is going to be fun.

"Oh Darlin, did you think I'd let you go, so easily?" The vampire gently strokes their cheek, amused as they flinch away from him.

"I want nothing to do with you, Quinn." Darlin hissed, their eyes narrowed and focused on him. "I thought I made that obvious when I left."

Deciding to teach them a little lesson, Quinn suddenly grips their throat, leaning his face closer to theirs, so close that the shifter could feel his warm breath on their skin. His grip tightens when their lips curl into a snarl. "And I thought you knew me better than that. Hm. Now..."

"What shall I do with you?"

Quinn tilts his head, inhaling their scent up close. His eyes trail down from Darlin's eyes to their lips, jaw and neck. "So many possibilities...and nowhere for you to run, little wolf."

"What the hell do you want from me?" Darlin barely manages to force the words out of their throat as Quinn's grip quickly strains their voice and the lack of oxygen makes the shifter feel lightheaded.

Quinn eventually lets go of their neck, he had plans to cover it in bite marks and bruises later. He wouldn't be able to do any of that if Darlin was dead.

"You. I want you. And now that I have you..." Quinn kisses their neck, then their jaw and finally their cheek. The wolf felt sick, disgusted and repulsed. Fuck. If only Sam were here. "I'm never letting you go. Never."

"You're twisted if you think I'm ever going back to you. Sam will find me-

Quinn's entertained expression promptly turns into a minute of fury and hatred. "If that southern vamp knows what's good for him, he'll stay away."

"Well, that ain't happening." A voice spoke with a distinct southern drawl. Darlin's heart skipped multiple beats, their vampire was here. Sam is here. He'll get them out of this mess.

"Sam-

Quinn frowned at first. "This is going to get dirty, Darlin. Look up at me so I can trance you-

Just as the shifter is about to hurl insults at the sadistic vampire, Sam cuts in. "Now, now. There's no need for that."

Quinn raises an eyebrow. "Oh really? And what makes you say that?"

Sam chuckles, strolling toward the vampire and angry shifter. "That will take all the fun out of it. We should enjoy them, as they are. Don't you think?"

Darlin frantically glances up at a manic Quinn, alarmed at the madness lurking within the depths of his eyes. The shifter turns their attention to Sam, who's now beside Quinn, leaving them with no room to escape. "Sam, what are you doing...why aren't you helping me...I don't-

Sam kisses their forehead, an endearing smile gracing his lips. His wolf had the cutest facial expressions. "I'd rather share you than lose you, forever."

"I'd rather you didn't share me at all." They spat, directing their anger at the vampire they had grown to trust...to love. "I trusted you, why are you doing this?"

"Quinn and I made a deal, you see. We'll both share you so you'd stop risking your life and Quinn would stop hunting you down."

"You're all ours, Darlin." Quinn bites their wrist, kissing their arms and hand.

"Ours." Sam whispers against their ear.

"And you have nowhere to run." The sadistic vampire laughs.

"Nowhere to hide." Sam sucks their neck, biting down hard enough for bruises to begin to form.

"You're our prey." Quinn's thirsty eyes settle on the pulse point on their throat.

"You're all ours." Sam smiles at them, the same way he did way back when.

[furiousgoldfish]

this got long heheh whoops.

right. so. when i was little, my younger brother and i used to be close. we had a game we would always play, but it became less and less of "two siblings playing" and more and more of "one child playing and the other doing as told." i was the one being ordered around, btw. anyway i got sick of it around grade school one day when he told me how i would react to a certain situation, and that the way i was ACTUALLY reacting was wrong. we didn't know the term at rhe time, but he was basically telling me i was out of character…even though my "character" was literally just me. i told him off, he screamed at me for daring to insinuate that He, The Fourth Part Of The Holy Trinity, (and that's a whole other topic) was wrong, our parents showed up and yelled at us both because "we don't care who started it!!!" and now we barely tolerate each other.

anyway here's the kicker. after This Mess he used to repeatedly tell me in gruesome detail how he would have me executed by firing squad when (not if) he took over the world to rule it with an iron fist. one time he threw a whole-ass thomas the tank engine wooden bridge one-and-a-half feet long directly at my head and then tried to claim that my anger-induced blackout that followed was What Happened First So It Was Self-Defense, Ackshully. he would mutter scathing insults under his breath and claim it was his internal monologue and that we were all mind-readers getting mad at him for Thinking Thoughts At All. he kept trying to insist inanimate objects had a will of their own and were always to blame if he were to trip or something. (which. wouldn't be too bad if he didn't treat allegedly-sentient beings in ways that would get him arrested for assault and battery if he did them to a person or animal)

he hasn't changed, by the way. like at all. he just sighs patronizingly whenever we contradict him about any of this, as if he's right and knows he's right and we're all idiots he'll never be able to convince, woe be upon us. basically if reality isn't as he says it is Then Reality And Everyone Else In It Is Wrong.

ANYWAY. THIS IS ALL JUST THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG AND ALSO BUILDUP TO MY QUESTION. my family and friends don't understand how i'm always "antagonizing" (read: "fearful of" and "avoidant of") him or why i cringe at the sound of his voice (read: why my fight-or-flight goes off whenever he talks, and doubly so when he whispers), and almost all of them actively enjoy his presence. whenever i try to put these things behind me like the "mature adult" everyone tells me i need to be, he pulls some shit like muttering "just another apology you owe me" and pisses me off juuust enough to make me glare at him, thereby siccing The Angry Parents on us both. i can't move out at this point in time, and i doubt he ever will. am i in the wrong for not wanting to forgive him, and daydreaming about cutting him out entirely?

God, I'm really sorry you're related to that. This story was completely bewildering to read, that is a whole lot of entitlement, ignorance, forceful and controlling behaviour, gaslighting and imposement of lies you had to endure. By the way you react to him now, it's obvious he traumatized you really badly, and took every advantage of being your sibling to hurt and control you.

You are absolutely not in the wrong, you should be protected and safe from such a harmful, abusive and creepy sibling. I would avoid that by a wide margin. I wholeheartedly support you cutting him off at your soonest convenience. Any forgiveness would immediately invite more abuse and you can tell that. People putting pressure on you to expose yourself to more of that are so deeply in the wrong they should be ashamed. You deserve a life free of this.

Reset! Rant (part 3)

Chapter: 16

That familiar feeling of rage returned to him. His fist and teeth clenched and he had the urge to hit something, preferable someone. Bart was the first thing that came to his mind, but he had better control of his Impulses than his brother did. He couldn't let Thawne win.

This is another big hypocrisy moment. He is not better at controlling his impulses than Bart is. Whenever he gets angry, he starts insulting and picking on Bart. He hurt Bart before because he couldn't take Kon making fun of him, and while doing so, he made the mission more dangerous and more prone to failure. He let's his anger out on Bart every time, and he had multiple agressive outburst. He's not as in control as the story leads on.

Bart hopped to his feet and rocked on his heels. "I screw up all the time. Everyone says so. That's why I'm not supposed to do the hero thing without an adult. That's why I wasn't invited to join the Teen Titans."

"Are you kidding me?" Thad's tone was sharp and angry. "What business does anyone have in telling you you how to help people? What business do you have in even listening to them? I don't see you calling yourself Kid Flash and running at Wally's side like and obedient puppy. You're not a side kick."

...................................."In any case, we're more than capable of operating on our own. We don't need some nosy busybodies lording over us and expecting obedience just because of the legacy we inherited."

At the first glance, this looks like Thad trying to emotionally support Bart and make him feel better. At the second look, not so much. Let's untangle what exactly is happening in this conversation. Bart is explaining why he is still supposed to have adult supervision, namely because people think that he can't handle missions on his own and that he'll mess up. Then Thad argues that he's not a side kick and therefore no one should tell him how to do the hero thing. Which...doesn't really makes sense. It was said that the reason why people are convinced that Bart can't be a hero without some guidance is not because he's part of a legacy, it's because they think that because of his impulsiveness and trouble at focusing he will screw them up. They're not expecting obedience because Bart is part of a legacy, they're expecting a willingness of Bart to work with a mentor because he's not experienced enough and will mess up at being a hero, otherwise.

Thad is self-projecting here. If he didn't misunderstand the situation for being about legacy, he wouldn't have tried to make Bart feel better. I'm certain he's just saying this because he's angry about the legacy he is conected to. The only reason Thad rants about Wally is because it reminds him of his situation with his legscy, and not becaus he's mad at Wally for being mean to Bart. Again, Thad is doing this for himself.

Remember when I told you to keep in mind what Thad said about Bart somewhere in Chapter 11? "Bart lacks the capacity of forethought that is requiered in an operation like this"? Also remember how Thad is always insulting Bart's intelligence, criticizes him and says that he won't survive without him? So what about the "In any case, we're more than capable of operating on our own"? This is not Thad suddenly making a turn around and seeing the flaws of his thoughts he had earlier. Thad's always saying what fits his interests best. He changes his opinions on whatever suits him best at the moment. He's such an obvious hypocrit at this point. He's bending his opinions on whatever he needs them to be. This is one of the most in your face instance of Thad gaslighting Bart. Through denial, controdiction and lies relating to his actions and words, he's planting seeds of doubt in Bart. Thad is making Bart question his own perception of memory, perception of reality and his sanity, whether Thad is intentionally gaslighting Bart or not doesn't matter. It's still damaging.

Chapter: 17

Thad thumped his fist against the garage door. "At least I had Craydl before. Now, I'm stuck with you." He glared at Bart again.

Gosh what a horrible fate, Thad. I feel so sorry for you. No really, I can't fathom what an awful nightmare this must be for you! He can never be satisfied, can he? He can count himself lucky that Bart is tolerating his toxic behavior. He is stuck with Thad. Bart is the one who has to put up with his constant belittling and verbal abuse. No one forced Thad to stay at Bart's home, Thad just decided that it now be that way. If it bothers him so much he could've asked to stay with the Garricks. Which would've also made more sense for everyone involved because Jay has superspeed and can look after Thad in case he would try to kill anyone else again.

Also note how Thad is threatening Bart through his gestures.

"Besides, mom said I'm the big brother and that's what big brothers are supposed to do." Rolling his eyes, Thad snorted, "Thanks for the touching moment, but it's not making my situation any better."

This is a form of withholding. It's also condescending demeanor.

Thad clenched his jaw and fists and said nothing in return. He stalked back into the house, punching the doorframe as he passed by.

He threatens Bart yet again.

I'm pressing buttons", Thad snapped. "What does that accomplish? This-" He pointed at the television, "is frivolous. It does nothing!" Bart tilted his head, looking at his brother then the controller. Then, without a word, he punched Thad. Startled, Thad stared at him, and then noticed the surprised expressions on Jay's and Helen's faces. Bart stood up. "Well, aren't ya gonna hit me?" Thad eyed Bart warily and stood. "What is this? Is this a trick?"

"No I'm serious. Hit me." When Thad hesitated, Bart insisted, "Fighting game im real life. Right here." Helen sucked in a breath as she realized what Bart was up to. "Not in the house." Bart nodded and grabbed Thad's arm. "C'mom! I know a place that's still in Manchester." When they ran off, Jay tipped his head to Helen. "I'll keep an eye om them." Once the boys were sure that nobody other than Jay was watching, Bart faced Thad with a combative stance.

Thad struck with a punch and Bart blocked with his forearms. Jay stood aside and watched, ready to intervene in case the fight got out of hand. Every now and then, a particularly solid strike by either boy, he tensed up and stepped forward, but they would continue on as if there was nothing to worry about. As Jay watched, he saw Thad smile for the first time. It was a wicked, predatory grin, full of bloodthirsty pleasure. Bart wasn't smiling. Instead, it was taking everything he had to hold himself against Thad. Sparks of static and stray speed force lightning trailed after them. Then Thad slipped past Bart's defenses and slammed down with an elbow and up with a knee. The next thing Bart knew he was looking up at Jay's concerned face. The elder speedster held out an arm to halt Thad. Thad's yellow eyes gleamed and he was still smilling, spoiling for more. Jay held out his other hand to help Bart to his feet. "You all right, son?"

This whole scene is so wrong, in so many ways, for so many reasons. Yes, you read this right. Bart suggested that Thad beat him up in order to let Thad get rid of his anger. Jay and Helen hear this offer, and say fucking nothing about it. Once again, they're irresponsible and neglectful. Helen shows absolute zero concern for Bart's well being. For crying out loud, the first thing she says after she realizes what Bart's suggesting is: "Not in the house." I repeat, the first thing that comes to her mind after she hears that Bart offers getting beat up by Thad is: "Oh no! My poor house! Everything will be so messed up!" I mean, damn. You have to be a really neglient, bad parent when you're more concerned with the state of your house than with the physical and mental health of your child. Helen and Jay should have been disgusted and put off by this offer. Helen should have said something along the lines of: "If Thad has anger issues, then that is his problem to work through, not yours. It's not your responsibility to keep his emotions under control. You are not his personal punshing bag, and you shouldn't put his well being before your own. No one expects you to make sacrifices like that for him." But nope, she is more afraid of what will happen to her precious kitchen than of the fact that Thad might break every bone that Bart has in his body because he feels like it. They both know what Bart is suggesting, and they don't see anything wrong with it whatsoever. They should have been horrified by this suggestion.

And keep in mind: This all happens after Thad killed the clone and almost killed Max and Bart. Helen knew of both altercations. She knows how brutal and vicious he can get. She knows that Thad is quick to violence, so why isn't she more concerned? Wouldn't she be at least a little scared that Thad might kill Bart because he can't control his brutal urges again? The only resonable explanation I can find is that she doesn't care about Bart. That's why she let's this happen, that's why she allows Thad to emotionally abuse Bart and call him names right in front of her eyes. She never makes Thad apologize for what he does to Bart, not even once. I don't like accusing her of favoritism, but that is what it looks like. Seeing how dispicable Thad's actions and words are is not that hard. Helen should have noticed by now. Jay isn't much better in this. He watched until Thad hit Bart so hard that he fainted and collapsed. I know that I couldn't stand idly by while watching a kid beat up another kid until he lost his conciousness and still feel like a good person.

If you think that we've hit rock bottom yet with this scene, think again.. Jay's and Helen's complete lack of concern makes Bart's actions seem like this was a healthy, acceptable way of helping people deal with their anger. That this is something normal in a sibling relationship. Worse, that offering someone to hurt you so that they can relieve their anger is something that is expected of you. A relationship where one part is expected to take responsibility for the other's negative emotions is a twisted, damaging one. You get what this is saying? "Someone's anger justifies them hurting and beating you up." This is just as bad as "abuse justifies abuse" (Which is also being taught here.) God, those are terrible, atrocious morals to teach to people. What Helen should have done with Thad the moment he moved in with them was taking him to an anger management class and getting him a good therapist, not ignore/encourage Thad's abusive tendencies.

Jay sat down at the table. "He's not as mean as his brother though. That kid...For his own grandfather to make him like that..." Jay shook his head with a frown. "If I ever get a chance to meet that man..." He clenched his fist on the table. "I hope I never do."

"Same here", Helen replied.

Seems like Thad's not the only one who takes a liking to being hypocritical and two-faced. This makes total sense, talk about poor Thad and all the abuse he went trough, but completely ignore the fact that he is abusing and actively inflicting pain on Bart right now. They're furious about what Thawne did to Thad, but when Thad does the same things to Bart it's totally okay and fair. In case you couldn't tell, this is a shit moral. Stop trying to justify abuse by saying that the abuser has been trough a lot and just needs an outlet. Having been abused does not give Thad the right to ruin Bart's life. It does not give him the permission to be a toxic jerk to him. He should be held accountable for his actions. Abuse doesn't justify abuse.

Chapter: 18

"So, you don't know anything on how to properly maintain it." Thad snorted and rolled his eyes. "Wonderful. Do you know where engineering is? Take me there. I'll do what you neglected to do and actually learn about the mechanics of this ship." Bart opted to ignore Thad's nasty tone, brushing it aside as just how Thad talked.

....................................

"If I'll get lonely, I'll come visit." Thad snidely assured. Not wanting to listen to another degrogatory rant, Bart decided to just let Thad find the room on his own.

This is critizising and judging and a put down, delivered with a very very condescending tone and manner. Do me a favor and take a shot everytime you read the sentences "Thad snorted" or Thad rolled his eyes." You'll be drunk in no time, trust me. Bart has been exposed to Thad's emotional abuse so long that at this point he is willing to accept Thad's verbal abuse as normal.

Chapter: 19

Thad:"They probably got distracted by with something shiny."

Thanks again Thad, for enforcing hurtful insults and exaggerated stereotypes about people with ADHD.

Thad:"Moron! Can't you come up with something that simple?"

Again with the name calling and the put down linked to Bart's ADHD.

"He's a nuisance" grumbled Thad.

"Not that I've had much first hand experience, but that's what siblings generally are, from what I've heard."

"So wanting to strangle Bart is normal?" Cissi laughed. "Everyone's wanted to strangle Bart at one point or another. That's just him."

Oh now it all makes sense! It's Bart's own fault for being abused because he's so annoying! Remember folks, if you've been abused, it's your own fault. If you hadn't been so burdensome, they wouldn't have treated you this way. They can't be responsible for their actions, it has to be you! How can we expect them to control their impulses and get a handle on their anger? That really would be too much to ask of them. The victim is to blame for being abused, that's obviously the logical conclusion here, right? God I hate this fic so much.

This whole conversation serves one purpose: Normalizing and rationalizing Thad's repugnant behavior towards Bart. Look! This is how healthy sibling relationships work! This is how they're supposed to be! Except not really.

This conservation is actually very cleverly done, because it only shows Thad's oppinion while stimuntaneously making it seem like Cissi agrees with his values about relationships when she's really not. They're coming from two completely different points of views, but that is concealed here.

Starting with the "He's a nuisance."

"That's what siblings generally are."

I get her statement, there will be many times when one can get annoyed with their sibling and not find themselves in an abusive relationship. Every sibling pair fights and argues, that's in the nature of things. It only gets problematic when that's literally the only thing you do. When the only thing you are to each other is an annoyance and someone to get mad at. When every encounter with them ends in hurtful words and accusations. Indicating that your brother/sister is sometimes a nuisance in a playful, teasing way is fairly common in healthy sibling relationships. "Those 5 minutes before you were born? Haha, those were the best 5 minutes of my life." Something like this is normal. The problem here? Thad doesn't mean what he says in a sarcastic or playful way. He's completely serious with this. This is all he sees in Bart. An annoying idiot who always stands in his way. There's no sympathy and no compassion for Bart. Only unjustified resentment and hatred. See, in a positive brother or sister relationship the individuels really love each other. Despite the jokes they sometimes make about not wanting the other around, they see more in their sibling than an annoyance. Thad doesn't, and that's what Cissi misunderstands. Thad is dead serious about his feelings towards Bart in this conversation. All he sees in Bart is a nuisance he has to tolerate. He has nothing but contempt for him. He doesn't try to see more in him than that. Thad has no right to complain about Bart. He has been nothing but nice to him. Despite all the shit he put Bart through, despite Bart still tolerating and trying to support Thad in every way he could, Thad somehow still has the audacity, the arrogance to make himself out to be the victim in this situation. Thad is an abusive jerk to him, if anyone has the right to vent, it's Bart.

Moving on to the "So wanting to strangle him is normal?" argument. Feeling a desire to hurt your sibling 24/7 just for existing isn't normal. Cissi means what she say in a more playful, harmless way. None of Bart's friends would go through with harming Bart because he was annoying them. There's a big difference between wanting to do something, and actually doing something. Moreover, Cissi doesn't get that Thad would like to hurt Bart all the time and not only when he was being annoying. Thad wants to hurt Bart even when he is nice to him. Thad means it in a "If Bart looks im my direction one more time I might strangle him and I really don't care if I accidently suffocate him and he dies." Cissi doesn't. Thad is aggressive and violent to him for absolute no reason. The emotions Thad feels towards Bart aren't normal, not in the least. Stop trying to justify his abusive behavior.

And, I think this goes without saying, hurting someone solely because they're annoying you isn't okay, either.
