He follows you to your quiet place after you storm off. You're too angry to say anything and he's too stubborn to apologize. You both sit on the edge of the roof, on the bench, under the tree, wherever and remain painfully silent.

It takes too long for someone to speak.

The moon looks down on you with disappointment.

hey did you know??? that if you stop stretching and maintaining mobility in your body then it goes away?? things get tight and you can't move the way that you used to??? and when you decide to try getting a stretch routine going that the first week fucking sucks because you keep going 'damn i used to be able to do this no problem' and then you have to switch gears and be kind to yourself and just focus on getting better from here instead of berating yourself for dropping the good habits in the first place??? and your body never stops aging so you gotta keep taking care of it and sometimes you gotta take care of it extra in certain areas because of things that happened when you were younger and it's boring and sometimes hurts but it's so necessary???

i am yelling this at myself right now i am going through An Experience (trying to get into a routine of body maintenance again for my physical and mental health)

btw. i made this quick guide of some of the natural size and proportion reference points in the human body. of course this all varies even irl, and you can stylize however you want, so ymmv but thought it might be helpful for some folks.

Welcome to fanart. I drew a picture.

i love it when characters are codependent. i love it when losing someone feels like losing a limb. i love it when two people "complete" each other so wholly and terribly that one can barely function without the other. i love it when the fear of losing the only person who understands them is so all-consuming they'll destroy anything to stay together, including themselves.

You have to think of it like table tennis! Lightly bouncing a small ball without much substance back and forth.

This feels silly to bother writing down but I know when I was younger and very shy these were all hard for me, so here's my scripts (as a front desk person who deals with hundreds of people every day). Once the script is started, a lot of people will fall into line with it instinctively. These also work for introverts and very busy people because there's a clear start and finish point with no need to prolong the conversation if not needed.

I have these nothing-conversations with people all day and don't use a single speck of brain power for them (though it definitely helps if you can manage to inject enough warmth into your voice and smile that the questions come off as genuinely interested. The exclamation marks are there for a reason.) This isn't even intended to be cynical; needing a script doesn't mean you don't care, but it also covers you for the times when you're personally exhausted or upset but still need to be professional.

Beginning of the day/Greetings/People arriving:

Speaker A: Hello! How are you?

Speaker B: Hello! I'm fine thanks! How about you? // Good thanks and you?

Speaker A: Good thank you!

Then smile as brightly as you can and go about what you were doing.

End of the day/Farewells/People leaving:

Speaker A: Goodbye! // See you later!

Speaker B: Bye! // See you later! Have a good afternoon/evening/weekend!

Speaker A: Thanks, you too!

Smile brightly, then go about what you were doing.

If you're feeling ambitious on a Friday or before a holiday you can add:

Speaker A: Do you have any plans for the weekend/holiday?

Speaker B: 1-2 short, simple sentences describing any specific plans that are okay to be shared (eg: Oh, I'm going kayaking with my friend. Should be fun!)

OR, No real plans yet, might see what [family member, person you live with] feels like doing.

OR, No, just having a quiet one this time!

Speaker B: Oh, that's nice/That sounds fun!

Then you can optionally repeat the process to ask the other person what they are doing for the holiday.

If someone tells you something sad (their pet died, they were sick on the weekend) and you don't know them that well:

You: Wow, that (really) sucks.

(for pet or human deaths, or serious/long-term illness. Soften voice, stop everything you are doing for a moment and if possible make eye contact to indicate sincerity.) I'm so sorry to hear that. (optional) That must be incredibly/so hard for you.

(for regular illness with no long-term effects) I hope you're feeling better // I hope you recover soon!

If someone tells you about something they're clearly happy about, like a new pregnancy/baby, big holiday, new pet:

Wow, that's so great! So happy for you! (Big, bright smile)

I feel like in the rush of “throw out etiquette who cares what fork you use or who gets introduced first” we actually lost a lot of social scripts that the younger generations are floundering without.

this is a poster i made for my call to action assignment in humanities! it's a bunch of basic and easy stretches for people who sit and work at a desk all day (me)

the idea is that you'd put the poster up above ur desk and do the stretches every 30 minutes or so,, the whole routine won't take more than about 6 minutes to complete and when done regularly it can prevent wrist, shoulder, neck and back pain! :)

all these stretches can be done while sitting (although i HIGHLY recommend you stand up and move around while taking a break from working)

you can get a free digital copy of this poster here on my gumroad!

and you can order a print/poster here from my inprnt!

let's fucking gooooooo

[chloesimaginationthings]

If Vanny is in the digital circus.. where’s Pomni?

[bruciemilf]

There’s something off about Bruce.

Dick’s eye is trained for detail; He has to calculate every leap, every step, every breath, every count. He’s a showman. Everything is routine, and routine is everything.

Injury isn’t unusual, especially for his father .He out stubborns Tim in resisting medical examinations, after all.

For Bruce, secrets are protection. He lied about every injury he had when Dick was Robin, suffering in silent agony as the pain grew and grew, a tradition he carries on from Jason to Damian.

If Bruce screams, it’s bad.

“God fucking dammit, how the fuck does he do this? Who the fuck breaks their femur AND just carries on? Jesus FUCKING Christ.”

Bruce curses under his breath, profanity hushed. Dick’s veins freeze, blood turning to stone. He guesses his shock is obvious because Jason mirrors it to perfection.

One; Bruce doesn’t curse.

Two; He definitely doesn’t curse in a jersey accent.

The unease is pungent. Alfred practically tastes it, vitriolic as anything. His chest is taut, pulse slow, “Sir,” it’s cautious, “Shall I prepare the supplies?”

‘Bruce’ waves his hand, voice gruffer, lower, smokey, “Yeah, thanks, babe,”

Alfred blinks. And whoever pretends to be Bruce, blinks back, almost like a deer being cornered by an English hound, smile a bit boyish and unsure.

“…Thomas?”

“… Okay, you’re gonna laugh—“

Dick is reeling, because apparently:

His dead grandparents have been possessing his father throughout the years and they, wards to the best detective in the world, never caught on.

“Look, I get you’re pissed, BUT,” It’s so unbelievably weird watching Bruce be so expressive;

His hands move energetically, like they have their own voices, and his rain soft voice catches on fire when his father talks through him,

“This IS 50% MY body, technically.“

“Thomas, dear, that is not how that works. Come now, you’re scaring our grandchildren.”

And Jason’s voice is uncharacteristically soft when he speaks, more posh, more elegant . That is not his brother.

Alfred passes out, to no one’s surprise.
