reading Sword of Destiny & i have feelings about that one confrontation between istredd and geralt. so i ended up doodling a little gerlion comic to give the witcher some comfort after that whole ordeal

bonus doodle under the cut!

[buccellato]

Fucks me up to think about how Legato's legacy in-universe after his death in Trimax (and presumably Tristamp) is probably gonna be how much he sucked and nothing else....

Like, nobody will like Knives but Vash will be long-lived enough to be able to eventually talk about his good qualities from when he was a child and his quasi-redemption in his last days. But who remembers Legato? Livio and Vash are the only living people with any extended memory of him and neither of them would have anything nice to say (and rightfully so). Neither of them probably knew he was a slave, either—as far as Vash can tell this dude showed up one day and hated his guts, for all he knows he's just another survivor from July! Outside of Knives, Elendira, Legato, and maybe Conrad, I don't think any other character knows his actual life story.

And to add on to that, there's no way of looking up that past either—he had no name or personhood before he was effectively rescued, so who could investigators or reporters or archivists track down for information? The human being that was Legato only existed for as long as he knew Knives, before that he was something to be kept and abused as an object. There's presumably no surviving family they can reliably contact, nobody to really say "yes I knew him, here's what his life was like, here's how we can prevent something like this from happening again".

His entire existence will be reduced down to "a human weapon that was freakishly loyal to public enemy #1" without any reflection on the mechanisms that made him the way he was because there's just no actual knowledge of his life.

ask not what you can do for your country, ask what your country did to you

[multifandombullshitbabes]

(Context: im thinking abt my post canon au, i explained on my ao3, u dont even have to read it just know its there)

Mizu revealing her being a woman to taigen AFTER he confesses his feelings to mizu AFTER being bested during their duel once again is literally so fucking personal to me. Jesus fuck... FUCK. Like. How overwhelmingly loved she must feel. How SEEN. Truly for once n not just but loved and wanted!!! Its so personal to me. Just. Taigen, losing, n then immediately leaning in for a kiss. Mizu is lost cuz what?? Why?? N taigen just. Confesses, but hes holding back cuz mizus reaction was not great and he doesn't wanna ruin the friendship they've formed these past months, they've grown so close so fast n its scary but so exciting n so right but if mizu doesnt want this then nothing is happening n its ok he has a CHOICE. Like. FUCK!! N then mizu telling taigen to wait and that night she reveals it. And its just sooo fucking intimate. Its so soft. And maybe taigen is confused but one look at how small mizu is making herself, like shielding herself from him. Like he gets it. The danger of it all. And its his promise to protect her if she ever needs to that does her in cuz. SHE HAS A CHOICE. TO BE PROTECTED OR NOT. THATS SO IMPORTANT TO HER. Yes, she can protect herself. Yes, it feels good to be protected. Yknow??

Mizu revealing her being a woman to akemi totally by accident AFTER they just had an argument abt women's choices in society AFTER mizu accidentally took one (1) big sip of sake, n then deciding fuck it im gonna win this argument, guess what akemi. And that's how akemi finds out. N Mizu thinks akemi is going to hate her, n she does for a bit in silence, but mostly shes just hurt? For herself AND for Mizu. Cause she understands, so suddenly, so intimately, how hard being a woman is and how mizu has had to hide as a man to survive (not even for plot reasons that we know, mizu being mixed AND a woman? Death sentence). And she just hurts. And they thought they'd always have this weird rift between them but they cry and they let it out (for Mizu, for the first time in YEARS) and its just. Its so emotional n so important and so personal and intimate. Its maybe winter all over again, a year has passed since theyd seen each other in kyoto, so much has changed and yet not rly and. They've grown but in different ways. Akemi, in taking life by the reins n being assertive and strong and so dangerously intelligent like shes always been but now, now its crucial to be that. And Mizu in realizing that she truly, truly wants to be loved so badly but to be loved is to be vulnerable and thats what scares her the most, to be weak; but ure only strong if u can be weak too, and thats what she learns. And i think this is where they really get deep into their feelings. Before it was a crush, an annoying one. Now? Oh bby theyre down bad. Yes they are.

[dazachi]

in hindsight, we should have all realized dazai was faking it when chuuya shot him on the shoulder and he screamed in pain coz he had never screamed in pain before. he usually just took the pain quietly

[azol-otl]

trick or treat!! 🧡 🖤

Oooh I'm not sure if this is the kind of treat you were expecting, but this was the idea that had me enticed back into doing this ask game in my clown shoes.

Bernard takes a deep breath trying to rein in all his anger at the situation. Text. Tim broke up with him via text. He couldn't even be bothered to tell Bernard straight to his face, no instead he just ghosts him for weeks until Bernard flipped his lid. Because it wasn't enough that Tim broke up with him via text. No, he had to do it because he got together with Superboy. While he and Bernard were still together. And Bernard only knew about it because he follows Stephanie who follows some Mia girl who follows half of the Teen Titans and on Bernard's feed was a full picture of Robin and Superboy kissing with a caption of how they've been insufferable since they got together! Bernard isn't a jealous guy, he was glad Tim reconnected with his old friends, and honestly did not mind at all that Tim used to have a crush on Superboy. He liked Conner! Well, he used to like Conner before this happened. Fuck, was it something about Bernard that had everyone leaving? He spent years shaving off all the obnoxious and grating parts of his personality for a reason. He used therapy speak and avoided feeling too strongly about his issues for a reason. He joined the cult for a reason! Bernard takes another breath and just packs all of that away into a box like the hypocrite he is. He wants to vent to someone, but due to the aforementioned cult he was a little lacking in relationships that aren't connected to Tim or darker times. He wishes Darla was still here. Sure, they weren't the closest, but if anyone would be pissed about Tim cheating on him it would be her if only because she hated cheaters. She wouldn't know what to do, would probably give some terrible advice like getting together with one of his teenage crushes but unfortunately that was Robin and Robin was Tim. Bernard stopped pacing. Except Robin wasn't always Tim. Bernard had a crush on Robin since he was eleven, and with his current insider knowledge he knows that Tim wasn't Robin until he was thirteen. That the conspiracies about the second Robin disappearing and there being a new one nobody talked about was true. It had made sense then. Robin's hair had lost their curls. He got pale. He was taller and less acrobatic and overall less athletic despite the larger body. Nobody wanted to consider a different kid. They just said it was puberty. But puberty shouldn't have changed the way he talked to people so much. More in the shadows and less a light from Crime Alley that he no longer patrolled and protected. Because why would he? Tim had no reason to focus on it as much as Robin Two did. And he was Robin because his predecessor died... Except Robin Two was alive again, and he was Red Hood. Bernard's first crush and gay awakening was alive. And he doubts that he'd say no to Bernard getting revenge on Tim this way.

tldr; JayBern, Bernard having revenge sex with Jason because Tim broke up with him via text after Bernard confronted him about being ghosted and also the fact that he was dating Kon for the last two weeks while they were still dating.

Also some neat stuff about how Bruce, Tim, and the other bats tried to hide the fact that Jason ever existed to the general public by pretending like Tim was Robin the whole time.

[stressfulsloth]

I think that what the disco elysium people said about Harry and Kim was the best way to put it. "Somewhere in the multiverse, Kim and Harry kiss." Because they're both so full of *potential*, both for wonderful and terrible things, and you *know* that in some worlds they full on hate each other. Harry can be a full on fascist; he's definitely been aggressive/racist/homophobic before the amnesia, there's no way Kim's entertaining his bullshit in that kind of playthrough if he makes no effort to change. And on the other side, Kim can be an absolute terror despite his calm facade- repressed, unflexible, patient with Harry only because he's a fellow cop, a committed *ex-moralist*. There are so many potential outcomes, so many different ways for them to fuck up, so many new and unique ways for them to be terrible together.

But then there's the multiverse where everything works out and nobody says the awful things they're thinking and maybe instead of pushing beyond Kim's boundaries by trying to can-open him, Harry helps him work through the repression and fear of change, and on the other side maybe Kim doesn't get frustrated by Harry's sheer chaos and just tries to be some stability in his life instead. They have *fun* together. They're playing board games. They wear matching jackets and sit on swings together whistling. And in that universe, maybe they get to be happy.
