@bas-writes asked: That was supposed to be a joke but I can't get it out of my mind after our extra conversation 😭😂 Could I request Gojo or Geto (still can't decide sorry aklskdd) taking bath or shower with their tall afab s/o - or rather, attempting to because when the average height is like 185cm nothing possibly can be easy 🤭 Thank you! ❤

a/n: ngl this drabble sent me into a deep dive of how certain parts of a shower are called because somehow i forgot them in all three languages LMAO it ended up being a short drabble and only slightly suggestive at the end, but the scenario was just too funny for me to take the full blown nsfw route asdfhjks but i hope you'll enjoy it anyway! thank you for your request, Bas! you're always giving me such fun prompts to work with, hehe.

word count: 637

“Uhm, excuse me, personal space?” 

You let out a small huff when someone squeezes into the shower with you, basically cornering you with his tall frame. It’s not like you were small to begin with, and yet Gojo still could rest his chin on top of your head if he wanted to–and right now there was almost no other choice than to do so. This shower wasn’t built for a person above average height, even less for two of your kind.

“You didn’t seem to mind me in your personal space last ni–OI!”

Note to yourself: Shower head aimed directly at his face can make Gojo shut up for an approximate span of two seconds. He’ll never get rid of the house cat accusations, huh?

Gojo grabs your hand that’s holding the cursed tool and gently nibs at your neck (again with the cat behavior…) before he puts the shower head back where it belongs. He’s not bothered by your protests and reaches to adjust the temperature of the water from a pleasant medium high to something that could best be described as close to boiling, filling the already too small shower with so much steam you practically go blind. Not much of a problem for the Six Eyes though.

“You could have just waited till I got out of the shower, you know?”, you grumble, trying to find your shampoo bottle but continue to grab anything but said bottle, maybe because Gojo is everywhere your hands reach out to in this cramped space. He hums, a deep sound in his chest that was close to purring, his big hands running over your body playfully with his chest pressed against your back. 

“But Ichiji texted me that he’s already waiting for us outside, even before I got into the shower. I’m just being time-efficient here”, Gojo coos and presses a kiss on the back of your neck. His wet hair tickles your skin while his hands sneak around your waist—a moment of defenselessness, leaving him unprepared for you abruptly bending over to grab your shampoo from the ground and pummeling your boyfriend out of the shower with the sheer force of your arched back.

Freedom never tasted sweeter than in this moment; to finally move around somewhat freely in your shower again without bumping into this brick of a man. Sure, you still had to duck slightly to stand under the shower head, but at least it wasn’t getting blocked by another giant. You love Gojo, with all your heart, but you learned very early on in your relationship that showering together wasn’t this romantic and cute scenario for you two to enjoy–it was war.

“Oi!”

The shower curtain gets dramatically pulled aside and once the hot water steam sets slightly, you see your butt-naked lover with his hands on his hips, bright blue eyes on you, probably thinking of a hundred creative ways to make you pay for your crime. You would be intimidated if he didn’t look like a soggy wet Norwegian cat which makes you bite back a laughter forming in your throat.

“Don’t come back in here, I swear, this shower is too small for–”, you threaten him with a laugh, already reaching for your weapon–the shower head–again. 

With one big step Gojo is back in the shower with you, cornering you once more, his mouth finding your neck and trailing kisses up to your ear before he bites it gently. He chuckles quietly at the small noise you let out and you know he won’t stop until he charms out many, many other sounds. Something tells you that you won’t be getting out of this shower anytime soon and you make a mental note to send Ichiji a gift basket for putting up with your demeanors. It probably won’t be the last time.

Cradle Pharmaceutical CEO in Police Custody! | JNS

Gentarou Hongou, CEO of the famous Cradle Pharmaceutical most known for the drug Soporil commonly used in hospitals, is in police custody after being handed in by a group of people with evidence of his crimes, including kidnapping, bribery and multiple counts of murder. And according to some sources, his murders are of the other three executives of his company!

hey at least you can add something pretty interesting to it

fml @passingbyinthetrees

You mean: the murder accusations that are likely true, the death game he was accused of setting up that are likely true no matter how fucking fake it may sound, the kidnappings of multiple children, bribery, and the fact that he was handed in by a random group found in the desert in NEVADA. NEVADA. FUCKING NEVADA.

Same here. Everybody I’ve met who’s talked about him saw him as this good dude but his smile always unnerved me for some reason. 

bend and snap! @sexymansplits

Opposite for me actually. I really looked up to him as somebody who helped the medicinal field, especially in a family full of doctors and nurses and anesthesiologists and just people who work with these types of medicines. Now I’m likely gonna be seeing this case analyzed for being something almost out of ace attorney :/

Gentarou Hongou and Cradle Pharmaceutical - A History Up to Now

1:12:58: “In early November of the year of our Lord 2027, a group of people that while not identified currently, they have been overheard calling each other “Clover”, “Seven”, “Junpei”, “Lotus”, “Alice” and “Snake” a blurry photo of an oddly dressed group of people in front of a car and a gas station is shown with many references to an “Ace”, presumed to be Hongou though he wasn’t seen. The man had been put into custody soon after with some reports of the events that led to it, including multiple leaks. Cradle has recently come out with a statement defending Hongou, saying that they didn’t believe in these accusations. However, that was quickly recanted by them once the backlash started. Due to the fact that all the executives have been murdered, there’s been quick reports of people being promoted to these roles and calls for new applicants. Honestly, I’m getting reminded of Oceangate right now from a few years back.”

Liebe auf Distanz and the bondage fic? 😇 (I'm predictable.)

Well, after the movie I watched last night left me totally devastated and before I get onto my true crime shit again (and get even more devastated) I'ma talk about something that brings me joy.

Lemme put it under a cut so it doesn't clutter up yall's feed.

The bondage fic is... pretty much exactly what the title says. It's about Jan and Bjarne trying bondage but it turns out that Jan is totally NOT fine with it. But because he is so eager to please Bjarne and has a hard time saying no he refuses to say No and Bjarne is left realizing they are making a huge mistake.

I'm still trying to figure out if it should be a short one shot or if I should allow myself to let this fic grow. That would involve stuff like Bjarne talking to the other guys to figure out if Jan had a bad experience with bondage or if he just generally doesn't like it. Before finally realizing that they can make it work, they just have to put Bjarne into bondage🤷

They don't talk that evening but Bjarne knows very well that they'll have to. The fact that Jan didn't want to tell him No, that he didn't tell him he didn't actually want this just because he didn't want to disappoint him is deeply concerning to Bjarne.

He looks down at the mop of reddish-blond hair that's being illuminated by the light of the TV. Jan had kept tossing and turning for about half an hour. Seemingly unable to decide if he wanted to be close to Bjarne or scoot away from him.

Finally Bjarne had asked, "want me to turn on the TV?" He hadn't sounded accusing or disappointed or anything, and if he did he didn't mean to, still Jan had flinched at his words, before nodding his head. So Bjarne had gotten up to turn on the TV. He had chosen a random channel, some nature documentary, and then he had returned to bed. When he lied back down he had given Jan a wide berth, a chance for his own space should he need it, without having to ask for it.

'Liebe auf Distanz', I have to laugh when thinking about this, but it was actually meant to be finished shortly after Jan and Paul went to California and met up with Lance after Christmas 2022. That's how long this has been postponed cause live has been living me.

Anyhow, this fic is basically just fluffy porn between two old rivals that are actually kinda sorta married. Ngl, I really like playing with Paul's character in this one because he seems like the type of guy that knows full well what's going on between Jan and Lance, even going so far as saying that it makes no sense to get Lance his own room because he'll just end up with Jan anyways, so why even bother. I also liked playing around with Jan and Lance's dynamic. Getting some of the more assured side of Jan out in the bedroom (just the way you liked it in the Tuscany porn fest).

A chuckle, maybe a snicker, and Lance looks up at his Jan. “Well,” he says, raising a brow at Lance. “Eins, zwei oder drei?” he asks, voice sounding strangely sing-songy; almost as if he is singing a song.

Jan tilts his head, cups Lance's cheek with one of his hands. His eyes have lost a bit of their intensity, the pupils aren't blown as wide anymore, and Lance can finally see the hazel color of the irises again.

“Drei,” Lance finally manages to get out. He still sounds so fucking wrecked. Jan smiles at him. His smile has lost a bit of it's edge too. He uses the hand that's still cupping Lance's cheek to pull him in close, and back into a kiss.

“Do you want to prep me?” he asks, whispers it right against Lance's lips. “Or should I?” For a moment all Lance can really do is pant against Jan's lips, and try to keep himself from rutting down against the leg Jan has somehow wedged in between his legs. When did his Jan become this confident during sex?

“I...” Lance stammers, swallowing thickly to try and get his tongue working. “I'll do it.” Jan nods, grins, then leans up to whisper something into his ear. “Right back pocket in my Jeans.” Lance's hips stutter to a halt and he stares down at Jan; Jan smirking back up at him.

Smells like infidelity

A/N: this is a bit different from what I’ve done before. It’s 5 am and I was struck by an idea. I went back and forth on who was gonna be the mistress. considered vision for a bit ngl, but they’ll remain unnamed. Tell me what yo think.

Summary: Nat’s a friend of yours, you meet up every Tuesday night for dinner and a glass of wine. But she’s been losing sleep, her wife is acting different and it smells like infidelity.

Warnings: murder, cheathing, based of a taylor swift song, I’m sorry

Word count: 925

It's Tuesday night, and I’m sitting in the parking lot outside of my favourite restaurant. It had become a tradition for me and Natasha to meet there for a glass of wine every week, for a catch-up. Though frankly, she had always much more to share than I did, I was more than happy to listen. Today was a was different

I found her at our usual table and all though she smiled and waved livelily, she looked more like a ghost. There was small talk and forced laughter at first, but as the bottle was drained, and replaced, her worries start to spill.

“Nat.” I spoke in a serious tone. “Are you alright? Forgive me but you look like you haven’t slept in days and you seem very stressed.” She sat quietly for a bit, her eyes became glossy as she opened and closed her mouth, failing to speak. She sat looking at the ground for quite some time. I was just about to ask her once more, as she seemed to have drifted off.

“I think Wanda is cheating on me.” She let out, with a sigh. She had clearly held that in for a while. 

“Oh god. Why do you think that? And for how long?” I wasn’t expecting that at all.

“I don’t know. I- She’s been acting different.” She looks away. “I tried to ignore it, but I got too worried. She’d say she was going to the store, but she came home and her lips taste of wine and it sure wasn’t from our collection.” Nat was somewhat of a snob when it came to wine. “…I found more. She’s bought some jewelry. Nothing she’d ever wear and it sure wasn’t for me.” She leans back in her chair emptying her glass in one go. Her voice had gone from shaky and weary, to one filled with frustration.

“I’m so so sorry Nat. What will you do?” Her eyes already told you she had a plan, she often did.

“I’m gonna call her out.”

I texted her that night to see how it went, or if she needed anything but got no response. I figured she was tired and had more than her hands full at the moment, so I left her to it. As the days went on I sent her a few more texts. The last one asked if we were still on for Tuesday, but Tuesday came and went, and Nat never showed. I called her work, but she hadn’t been seen, not there, not anywhere. On Wednesday, Wanda reports her wife missing, a week after she was last seen. 

One day I drive by her house hoping she’d be there. Somehow back, safe and sound. But there was no readhead in the window waving as I pulled up, instead, there was a blonde shutting the curtains in a hurry. The mistress had moved in, sleeping in Natasha's bed and everything, I felt sick and turned back around. So soon after, only three days since she had been reported missing. On my way to the car, I noticed her truck has got some brand new tires. There was no longer any doubt in my mind, someone’s got to catch her out. Cause at this point I think she did it, but I just can’t prove it. Without a body, there’s no crime.  She did it, she did it, she did it, played over and over in my mind as I walked away from the house.

“And I found you have a boating license?” The detective looked down at a piece of paper, before eyeing me.

“Yes. My dad made me get one when I was fifteen.” I’ve also spent most summers cleaning houses so I’m sure I’d do well cleaning up a scene, but you’re not getting anywhere with this, I thought to myself.

“Useful thing to have huh?” He leaned forward.

“Sure is if you like the ocean,” I spoke in a confused tone. “Am I being accused of something here?” 

“No, you are not. We must look into all suspects Mix(Y/L/N). I only have one more question then we’re done here.” He paused and I held my breath in anticipation. “Where were you on Saturday night?” 

“At home,” I spoke confidently.

“Can anyone testify to that?” He looked at me with suspicion. 

“Yes. Yelena.” I pointed to the blonde next to me.

“Natashas, sister?” He said those words with pity and I could tell it stung to hear her sister's name in that tone.

“Yes.” I said, glaring at him a bit.

“Is this true? You were together on that night?” He looked at her and only her, as he asked that.

“Correct.” She wanted to leave and so did I.

“For how long was she with you that night?” He questioned further.

“Dude she was with me the whole time.” Yelena was fed up, thankfully the man gave up and let us go.

As we make our way out of the building, we catch the mistress walking in. She glare at us, the whole way through.

“I heard she took out a big life insurance policy, right before.” Yelena whispers.

“Oh they definitely think she did it, but they have no proof.” I shrug.

“She definitely thinks you did it.” Yelena says, once we get outside.

“But she can't prove it.” I say, as I get into the car. 

“No body, no crime.” Yelena states.

“And I’m not letting up til the day I die.” I sigh, as we drive off.

Playing The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles case 1- SPOILERS ahead

Y’all I’m just so glad to have a new ace attorney I’m actually a little emotional even though it doesn’t star the normal cast

Ooooo the grafficks

First rule of ace attorney: you DO NOT pick up the gun out of curiosity you WILL be accused of murder

Surprise surprise Ryunosuke, we’ve been accused of murder

Our friend character has perpetually-flowing-majestically-in-the-wind headbands he’s the cool one we’re the nerd one bet

“Hey man there’s gonna be a question and you have to answer it exactly with what I say” Can you at least tell me what the question is? I mean, I can tell it’s so that I represent myself and not Friend Boy because he’s staking his scholarship on this but still

Lmfao they named the Prosecutor Payne of this game/era Auchi?? Like “Owchie”?? That is the funniest pun name and it’s only the first case, how can the game possibly one up this

“Who represents the defense?” I WAS RIGHT THAT WAS THE QUESTION

I DO!! I AM THE DEFENSE

jshslagwalwksknk aaaaaaahhh he’s shaking so much I love him already poor bby 😭🥺🥰

I love how animated all the characters are!! it gives them so much personality I hope they use it a lot going forward

Ok so so someone is going to be a massive liar and claim that I shot him in the back. Because this is an Ace Attorney game and he was clearly shot in the front and the report specifically calls attention to the fact that that the bullet did not exit his body. Bet.

Y’all we should flip the man’s business card over right now like right now

No? ok I’m not allowed to have that evidence yet. I hope it’s not a department store receipt

👏 👏 Kazuma is so competent and confident and cool and he’s pretty much still my defense attorney so what even was the point of me taking over lmaoo

“Let me show you this cool new mechanic Naruhodo-san: it’s called ‘turning your head in order to address another person’”

Ngl Ryunosuke you sound kind crazy going on about the mysterious lady that only you saw. Like. I know she definitely exists and the witnesses are lying as per tradition but you could stand bring her up more tactfully than a conspiracy theorist

AH HA YOU LIAR HE WAS SHOT IN THE FRONT AND THE BULLET DIDN’T GO THOUGH HIS CHEST GOTCHA

Also he definitely stole your coin sir check his pockets or his secret baby’s pockets

I love how Ryunosuke has to double check with his papers real quick every time he makes a statement like he’s still not 100% sure even though the evidence is literally in his hand. Mood.

Plot twist(?): the police and/or government may, in fact, be corrupt

Also I told y’all we should’ve flipped his card over what kind of undercover agent are you man

W. Why would a Japanese student killing a British professor be less of an international incident than a British student killing a British professor?

KAZUMA YOU’VE JUST CURSED THIS MAN. YOU’VE CURSED THIS MAN AND HIS ENTIRE BLOODLINE. this line is such a “Ankin you’re going to be the death of me”/“only exists because this is a prequel” line tho

Ms Brett studies here??? She definitely speaks Japanese?? How are y’all this dense maybe you deserved to be tricked by her

“Suddenly they started arguing and then the student took out a gun and shot him!” Ma’am do you really mean to tell us that the wide-eyed boy over here shaking like a leaf every time he has to be mildly assertive angrily pulled out a gun and murdered a man over an argument? Surely you can think of a better story than that.

Auchi is a simp there I said it

Ok like. Who called this man a crime scene thief. Who hurt him.

“Yeah I can speak Japanese I just didn’t wanna disgrace my beautiful Mother Tongue by speaking it” can I beat her with a cane

You know as well as I that English is a travesty

Game: “This new anesthetic thing is amazing, imagine being able to just turn off pain! Isn’t that just WILD? That the professor was under so much anesthetic and he couldn’t feel pain and that the anesthetic was so powerful it wouldn’t have worn off for a few hours?? Wack.” Game: “So anyways, why could the professor not feel the burn?” Me: “The… anesthetic hadn’t… worn off yet?” Game: “Wrong it was because he was already dead” Me: “W-”

“Swimming though the ocean of perjury that waterfalls out of the witnesses’ mouths” has never been more accurate bc literally everything this lady says is a lie

The judge is a simp too

“What are YoU dOiNg heRe YoU’re not alLoWed in the courtroom because yOu’Re a wOmAn” damn dude she’s a teenager on an errand run for her dad ok maybe Kazuma’s curse was justified we stan the headband

Ma’am why would you use the poison that you were on the record researching why would you think that would work

My guess is that she only poisoned the professor’s cup specifically and not her own and that’s why she took one of the glasses with her so that they couldn’t test it

Drinking the rest of the water in the middle of court to prove its not poisoned- The drama. I expected nothing less from a woman wearing a live swan as a hat.

No I was wrong? It just doesn’t hurt you if you swallow it normally? Ok

SHE JUST DROPPED IT. IN THE MIDDLE OF COURT. THE AUDACITY.

Nah man I bet we can still prove there was poison in there. Maybe because the inspector handled it so much that’s why he’s been coughing up blood this whole time test his blood

Ok I guess that wouldn’t have worked because she’s been handling this poison for a long time and she’s not coughing up blood fair enough

Ok so it is a little bit of a cop-out that we can just… remember new evidence ourselves ngl.

“I preserved both steaks” oh he’s gonna bring out the wrong one isn’t he

It’s the wrong plate dumbass.

It’s the wrong plate

Its

It took a VERY LONG time to finally be able to tell everyone they got the wrong plate

at least we proved noseman stole the coin I’m glad that had a payoff

Ok so why did she murder him

What was her motive

?? Motive?? Isn’t that important? Don’t you need to prove she has a motive like a beef with him or something

Pun intended, she did in fact have literal beef with him. Hire me Ace Attorney pun names team

You’re not gonna ask WHY she killed a man while you already have her explaining how she killed the man??

Oh ok so we really don’t know why she killed the guy huh like she had this whole thing planned out days in advance she must have had a reason

Maybe this’ll come later since she’s being tried in Britain and we’re going to Britain some time in this game

Oh they haven’t explained why he was coughing up blood yet either 🤔

[ecl1pse]

Hi! I saw ur post on how it’s hard to stan gidle bc of the questionable stuff they do and since I don’t know much about it can u please explain to me anything problematic they’ve done? Not that I doubt u I just wanna know about it

ooh, girl! lemme tell ya. this is gonna be a long one, and i will preface this saying i absolutely do not have all the facts and details, but this is what i’ve gathered in my time being a mostly soft neverland.

when (g)i-dle debuted they released this v beautiful mv along with their debut song latata. in the mv the girls had henna in their hands, which, ok. nothing too bad, right. but that was just the beginning of a very weird history of cultural appropriation.

then they released another banger: hann (alone). amazing vocals. amazing sound. cool choreo. but the mv was littered with all these…hm. middle eastern references. which. ok, latata also had some of that. it’s…ok. maybe they’re just going for A Thing. it’s ok. this is just their first comeback, their second single overall, and their first digital single release ever. BUT during one of end of year shows, the girls found themselves in hot water bc they had a stage where they had freaking synagogue as their backdrop. not even like a cool 3d stage, it was printed synagogue on freaking sheet. we all collectively had a very oof moment. (also, shuhua had like, no lines in this song. a crime on itself.)

after that came senorita. which should have been called señorita. it was catchy, it was replayble, it was spicy. it was also also kind of weird how they had a guy just singing “señorita” in the background, and no other lyrics in spanish, other than soojin saying “señor” by the end…hm. also the beat is just very generic “latin-inspired” song. in one of their live stages they had a fake-ass mariachi band as their….back up dancers. or whatever. they were just in the background pretending to play the trumpets. which personally i found more funny than offensive. but also i’m mexican and when momoland dressed up in ponchos, sombreros and fake mustaches, me and my sister just laughed and went “haha we do look like that!” i can take a joke. like, very easily. (also, if you want a more tactful latin-inspired k-pop song, listen to vav’s senorita & give me more. absolute bops imo.)

after that came uh-oh, which is a very clearly an old-hip hop inspired comeback, even down to the mv. it’s proooobably my favorite song of theirs ngl. this comeback wasn’t…too bad or shrouded in controversy, ‘cause tbh the mv director did a pretty good job at paying homage to late 90s/early 2000s music videos. but still, some people were skeptical considering the rep they had been building up. and at this time it was becoming very clear that soyeon is calling the shots, or at least has the most say out of all the girls both in songwriting and art directing when it comes to their concepts/mvs.

during the summer/fall of 2019 gidle participated in the competition show queendom. in the show, during the planning of the stage performance for their cover of 2ne1′s fire, soyeon asked yuqi to make “tribal sounds” for the opening of the song and sing it like she’s “an african chief” and said this was how they could keep their sound, which she describes as “ethnic hip.” it was. gross. and the rest of the girls just laughed it off. queendom pretty much ended up confirming everyone suspicions that soyeon is the one coming up with these ideas and the rest of the girls are just there to do what she says. you can look up the behind the scenes and planning of the stages on m-net’s youtube channel. soojin doesn’t even get a word out when they were planning the fire stage. it’s…weird ngl. you can’t even accuse m-net of evil editing this one bc she just says that! like, wtf. anyways [here is an excerpt of the video]. she says it with such a straight face, too. ew.

people demanded an apology from gidle, soyeon more specifically. it never came. so people boycotted their next release: lion. honestly i don’t know if any transgressions happened during this time cuz i was just so put off by what was mentioned above that to this day i can’t really even vibe to lion. it just brings a guttural disgust to my whole being.

i’m little iffy on the timeline here – bc like i mentioned, i was keeping as far away as possible from gidle at the time cuz of soyeon’s comments – but i do remember that some time after yuqi found herself in hot water for a comment she made about shuhua during a livestream that went like she “needed darker skin to be a police because her white skin wouldn’t let her to catch criminals at night.” or at least that’s how a fanclub made it sound like. it sounded v suspish, but a lot of fans came to her defense saying the joke was poking fun at how fair shuhua is and how she wasn’t actually making fun of darker skin. the fanclub that made the translation actually came out with a letter of apology saying they had rushed the translation and the joke was actually little more nuanced than what they made it out to be. regardless, yuqi actually apologized on a fancafe letter. which was actually really nice of her, since the mistake wasn’t so much on her part, and if anything this is a way lighter offense than anything soyeon has ever done or said, and yet….

[here is a koreaboo article that includes screenshots of the fancafe letter and a translation]

it’s been awhile since gidle/soyeon have said or done anything since – well, it’s been a while since they have released anything, and they’ve been under a microscope since the queendom incident. also, i haven’t payed attention at all to what they have been doing, if they have been doing anything, lol.

their latest transgression has been the very blatant, very suspicious uplifting of imagery from fka twig’s cellophane mv onto their mv for their newest single, oh my god. @anna-something made a [post] which very clearly lays it all out, screenshots and everything. considering all the evidence above i have to say this one also falls on soyeon’s shoulders yet again. also, as i was making this post someone commented on an yt comment i made on a mv reaction of the mv (since i’m not gonna give them views, lol) saying “maybe they have the same mv director.” i looked it up, they don’t. cellophane was directed by andew thomas huang, while oh my god was directed by yoon rima.

in conclusion, it is very exhausting to try to stan (g)i-dle. wouldn’t recommend it. mostly because soyeon does not seem like the greatest person ever. now, i will say i am all for cultural appreciation! in fact, i tried to believe that’s what they were going for during senorita. but… it’s become very clear that soyeon doesn’t understand there IS a line between appreciation and blatant appropriation, so she tends to fall on the latter. if she just apologized, strived to be better, and actually took the criticism and applied it towards becoming a better person – and therefore a better artist – than i could get behind her 100%. but as it stands right now, i don’t like her. i don’t like her at all. i have given her chances, but she does not seem to want to accept her missteps. she doesn’t even addresses them at all. and i’m tired. if yuqi could, why can’t she? i doubt cube, as shady as they are, is keeping her from releasing some sort of statement. 

if she intends to make it big over here in the west she needs to grow up, she needs to apologize. until she does that she will continue to jeopardize not only her own career, but also yuqi’s, miyeon’s, soojin’s, shuhua’s, and minnie’s careers, and they really don’t deserve that. she might be the biggest voice in the group, but she’s also the one dragging them down. APOLOGIZE, SOYEON, GODDAMMIT!

if anyone wants to add anything else that missed, please feel free to do so.

[pinkletterday]

Oh thank God they aren't waiting till shit goes down to brief Team Flash.

LMAO Iris "what the newspaper says some shit? That's like Tuesday for us, bro."

Seriously though I'm tired of Iris being "tough". The best thing, maybe the only good thing, about Season 3 was that she was allowed to be soft and vulnerable and scared and sad. We badly need to roll back on this stoic tough chick trope. LET WOMEN BE EMOTIONAL FOR THE LOVE OF GOD.

I miss Soft Princess Iris. :(

SINGH. I missed Captain Singh. He's like Barry's number one stan. "You got an intern working a crime scene without going through any hiring protocol whatsoever, Allen? Good job!"

Incidentally how can you "hire" interns if you don't pay them?

So. Now that we've seen a man become compressed into a block of meat, can we have some PG 13 post-coital Westallen nookie? This show's attitude to sex is so fucked up. Shishkebab people 96 times per season but zero hints of a sex life between a loving, committed couple.

Nora, I love you but you may actually be worse than your Dad at showing up to crime scenes with flimsy excuses...*flashes back to introductory episode on Arrow 2x8* nvm

That block of meat is making me hungry. Need breakfast.

"Please stop caring about me" LOL

Ralph is sort of growing on me. Granted, so could fungus.

Okay that was mean.

I really hope Barry also tables his family drama for five minutes to be there for his best friend. Caitlin and Cisco keep being deprioritized since S2 - S3 and its grating on me. Be there for your friends too, Barry.

Excuse you, going to Thailand and painting your toes is a great way to get over a break-up. However, I strongly advise against any drastic hair decisions.

Oh. Poor guy. Be gentle, Mad Dog West-Allen

(Get it? Mad Dog Lane? TNAOS? Ok then)

I do like when they show civillian casualties. It makes what they do seem more impactful.

Is Joe on paternity leave?

I like these West family subplots. Joe and Cecile are v cute.

Cecile reading the mind of your child without their consent is the opposite of being the perfect parent. Wait till she's out and raid her room for drugs like everyone else.

Barry is like me with teenagers. "When I was your age it took five minutes just to connect to the internet and your search history turned up on your phone bill shut your gob."

Oh Nora. *facepalm*

Idk why Barry always calls his villains out. He's a speedster with the advantage of surprise. Its stupid.

"Denser than people who still believe in love." I feel you so much Cisco.

I see the CW is still forcing us to be minutely acquainted with people's chins.

SERIOUSLY just let Barry take five seconds out to give Cisco a comforting pat on the back Im so tired of this.

LOL Barry you're giving Nora math homework? That's just harsh.

Lmao Cisco is getting Anne Hathawayed HANDS OFF THE HAIR BRUCE. **proteccs lush beautiful Cisco curls*

"Does that mean you think there's something wrong with me?" NO BABY YOU ARE THE MOST PERFECT AND BEAUTIFUL

"You cut my hair I cut you" YOU TELL HIM

Oh. Oh my. Oh.

I have never been so attracted to Cisco Ramon before. Clearly I have been a fool.

Heee she raised her hand. "But Dad, I wanna punch stuff!" Most precious bean.

Errm pretty sure your Dad killed the Sand Demon, Nora. I don't care about DC's no-kill rule but that was not his finest moment.

Lmaoooo welcome to fatherhood, Barry.

Maybe a stern little talking-to wouldn't hurt at this point.

Whenever she says "Dad" my insides melt a little more.

Okay, Barry and Iris need to draw some hard lines between their professional lives. The investigative journalist cannot just waltz into her husband's CCPD lab and look through his laptop. Literally you could have done this at home instead of the lab. One day they're going to be accused of evidence tampering.

Shit like this takes me out of a scene unnecessarily.

Barry: "NORA ISN'T LISTENING TO ME SHE THINKS SHE CAN DO ALL THESE THINGS BUT SHE CAN'T, NEMO!"

Joe: *internally laughs himself stupid*

So this is why parents want their kids to reproduce. The sweet, sweet karmic payback. xD

(Fourth grade? Barry came to live with them when he was eleven. Also pretty sure Barry kinda hated Joe for a while what with having arrested his Dad and being traumatized. I can see him hero-worshipping Joe a couple of years later maybe.)

I can't get over how hot Cisco is. Bruce better not have burned his iconic t-shirts tho.

Aww, Caitlin. That sucks. :( I know the theme this season seems to be fathers and daughters but you should really talk to Iris about absentee parents who faked their deaths.

No seriously this is a great bonding opportunity for them! I need to see a solid friendship between the two main female cast members so bad it's been four seasons please throw me a bone

Oh, step twenty seven is hitting me hard too. I think I might actually like Ralph soon.

Okay, real talk. Yeah the superficial stuff can't distract you from the truth that your relationship tanked. But that whole cry on your couch for two weeks, get away to a seaside with friends, getting a makeover, buying new clothes, redecorating your living space - these are also rituals of grief and helps you cope till you get enough emotional distance to deal with reality. Superficial stuff is what makes life bearable, okay?

The other thing is to give relationship advice nobody asked for

Moving on.

I love that Cait and Cisco are always there for each other.

Awww Barry's showing Nora what a fuck up he truly is loool.

Oh my God. Season 1 Barry. "Sometimes for people with our abilities the most impressive thing is restraint." WE HAVE COME SO FAR. I'M LOVIN' IT! *prouds*

Yessss Iris being as smart as the nerd herd!

GO TEAM WEST-ALLEN!

Young lady, you roll your eyes at your mother one more time and we're gonna have words.

Kinda hate that in order to give villains a chance against speedster powers you gotta significantly bring the latter down several IQ points.

Baby got moves! Nice!

Barry! What about those moves you used to lay out the ARGUS guards??

This fight would be more impressive is I could see jackshit. Lighting, people!

Hmm. Did Cicada just have a "Save Martha" moment?

Nora is so scared and worried for her father, poor babb.

YES MARVEL REFERENCE!

Wait, so they got their powers back?

Y'know he didnt have to vibe that to realize the obvious next step is confronting Caitlin's mother.

Actually that sounds like respiratory problem. New villain - Halitosis.

Oooh Future Spoilers Girl knows who Cicada is

Aaand that's a wrap folks.

Ngl I had hoped for more "West" in Team West-Allen but this was a solid ep.

Please have Nora call Barry "Dad" as many times as possible k.

[generalchelseamayhem]

ngl, it does make one think. I'm reminded about that post with the father who believed his step daughter about the son raping her, and now the son out and out hates him for being a factor for ruining his life. But well, how exactly would one regain trust from someone if they had believed the accusations of a crime against them? Like, Lord knows it wouldn't be easy to regain any more than acquaintance for a long ass time.

I take that story with a grain of salt because it originated from a Reddit post (albeit a very sincere-sounding one), but otherwise I agree.
