You killed somebody??

- 🐈‍⬛

yeah. also it fucking sucked. he literally stabbed me earlier in the day cause i asked him to, and then i had to go reopen those wounds to make it look like it was self defense instead of assisted suicide.

check this out.

[ He’s already unzipping his jumpsuit and lifting his shirt to show off the bandaged injuries. ]

[ Under the cut is an image I made when it happened during roleplay. This is not a canon photo, and depicts Grant shirtless and injured. ]

I haven't seen you on my dash since 2021 mcytblr, this was an unifying stream

PROOF that connoreatspants is truly the people’s streamer

I’m a bigender gorgug believer. Not only is a big part of his narrative combining two things that are thought to be separate within herself and synthesizing them as a path to personal fulfillment, I also think that bi bigug is fun. Bigender bisexual biromantic her swag is immense

SOOOOOO REAALLLL i was literally gonna tag she/he gorgug on that other ask. “gorgug can be bi for pride month” gorgug is all of the bis all of the months 🫶

what are your favorite wlw ships in the dc universe?

anissa pierce and grace choi are recently on my mind because oh my God. they're so important. everyone should read The Outsiders (2003) for some of the most entertaining found family and realistic (or as realistic as superhero comics can get) romance ever. eventhough anissa and grace get together at like the end of the run you can tell from the beginning that theres some intense chemistry there ans they're just sooo cute ☹️

after that it has got to be diana and barbara ann. save me toxic yuri à la Wonder Woman (2016). i think every single hero needs that one relationship with a villain/anti-hero that they just can't give up on no matter what. it makes them so complicated and REAL because the most wonderful thing about love is it's ability to preserve through the impossible AND THAT IS LITERALLY DIANERVA!!!! they are foils and they want to get nasty everytime they lock eyes.

now i can't discuss dc sapphics without mentioning kate and renee. they were my first ever wlw ship i read in comics and i am very happy for it. as a lesbian i find comics can be a very isolating place, with very few characters and ever fewer stories, so reading Batwoman Elegy was quite literally a life changing experience. and while i loved all of the relationships kate had, her one with renee is such an interesting one with all its ups and downs and very real experiences that i love very dearly. my divorced parents, if you will.

You are a fantastic writer and a source of pure inspiration for so many people.

Everything you do improves the lives of so many.

I only wish the very best for you and for those around you fortunate to have you in their lives.

from the very bottom of my heart, thank you! it's hard to really. convey the impact this message had on me, so i'm just gonna show you.

it's probably embarrassing the speed and efficiency with which i printed this out and slapped it on my fridge, but. words matter! kindness matters. the thought and love you put into this message is something i want to keep with me in plain sight.

thank you for this. i don't know your name, but i'll think of you daily.

Hi! Do you think Kogami have feelings for Akane?

That is a very vague question lol. Yes he has feelings for her, he has feelings for everyone.

But I'm gonna assume you mean does he have romantic feelings for Akane, to which I can only respond: probably? At least, that's how it seems to me. Though I think his feelings of attraction towards her only started developing after the events of the first movie and closer to Providence. It's clear in season 1 that he sees her as a kid (which is fair, she's newly 20), and it's when they reunite in the first movie that it seems like he starts seeing her as a grown person.

Now, do I think Kougami realizes he has (probably) romantic feelings for Akane? Absolutely not, that man is stupid as fuck when it comes to himself. And do I think he is aware that Akane probably has romantic feelings towards him? Definitely not. Saiga even tells him in Providence to stop playing around with Akane's feelings to which Kougami responds with a surprised pikachu face ("I didn't think I was"). And then there's the burger incident at the end of First Inspector lol.

Idk what do you think about poly ships but could you give your thoughts on Silver x Shard x Larry?

I actually do love polyships! You wouldn't know this anon, but while I do have occasional monoships there is more than one fandom I'm a part of where I just have insanely big and complicated polyships😂

Anyhow, I actually kind of adore the thought of this ship? While out of all of the possible pairings here, Shardilver has always captivated me most, I loved their little trio and can't help but be sad that we won't see more of Joker, Jack, and Ace in action

As for canon stuff, I have to admit that I didn't really pay as much attention to Larry in my original read of the trio's first mission. This is largely because of how much of a sort of in your face rivalry Silver and Shard play with during the "follow Geoffrey" mission. I honestly have to give kudos to Larry for trying to focus on the mission while Shard and Silver take up time competing or arguing, especially since he's just kind of in the middle of it?

I feel like the trio really could have gone somewhere as a team and those couple issues of Sonic Universe (42 and 44) were just the beginning. Why? Well, they are a new team. These three are working together for the first time, learning about each other, and dealing with each other. I find it unfortunate that Shard and Silver's taking charge and Larry's trying not to rock the boat or making a wrong move leads to Larry being a bit out of the spotlight (after all, we only get to learn how Larry joined the secret freedom fighters because Silver asks about his "power"). This is all to say that...we could have seen them evolve and grow as a team and as characters a bit.

I think I'm going to go off for a second on some thoughts I have from them under the cut. In case you don't want to read all that though, the simple answer to anon's question is that I definitely can get behind Shard/Larry/Silver as a ship (though I am partial to Shard/Silver)

Okay, so I want to think about them as a team. All in all they're dysfunctional in that way where things just *barely* turn out. Shard and Silver are constantly competing/arguing, Larry really has no reason not to feel like a burden with his jinxes (especially with them coming into play in ways that present as obstacles when he tries to take charge of the situation), and all 3 of them are trying to prove themselves in some way while the mission goes...not as desired.

But in a way I feel like this trio pairing does or could have had a purpose. Silver has been trying to save his future by traveling to the past, but he's had a bad track record in prevention and actually pinpointing the issue that causes his bleak future (and his doubling down on his accusations to administer justice hasn't allowed him to make friends too well). Shard is the original Metal Sonic. He spent a lot of his existence following orders and obsessively messing with Sonic, uncaring of who he hurt or killed in the process. And although he eventually grew a soul and gave his life for Sonic and Tails, he can’t so easily leave his past behind. He can’t expect people to accept him or to forgive him. His attitude at this point is less about genuine maliciousness (as with his previous altercation with Sonic and Tails) or him actually hating Silver, but is more of a form of self protection. Larry has had a hard life. With his chronic unluckiness, he learned long ago that it was better if he stay away from others and just...try not to burden them, even if he can't help it. It gave him hope way back then, when Sonic helped him learn that he and his jinxes could have a use, and when he became part of the substitute legion of freedom fighters. However, it's clear from the story he tells Shard and Silver that he feels like he had a good thing going, only for his jinxes to ruin everything again. He just wants to be helpful, especially now that he's been given another chance to prove himself, but he's still afraid to be a burden.

All three of them have a past or track record that it's hard to move past, but they want to try. All three of them are looking to get something out of being a member of the secret freedom fighters (and though Silver is mostly doing so to get his information so he can find the traitor and go back to his own time, he, like the other two, is also being given another chance to do good via his membership of this freedom fighting group). For lack of a better term, this is a group of "failures" who are trying to do some good.

So I think if we could have seen more of them, we could have seen Silver and Shard come to care about Larry as a partner, appreciate him as one. Larry's background arc could have been about him starting to speak up and assert himself as a member of the group (instead of acting on his own to the group's detriment, sort of following along, or supplying commentary or advice occasionally). I think we could have seen Shard come to care about Silver and Larry (and their well-beings) beyond the mission at hand or his own goals. Just like Sonic often has to learn, we could have seen him grow more used to working in a team rather than trying to show off or prove superiority by handling most obstacles or decision making. I think this team could start as practice for him possibly trying to make up with others outside the secret freedom fighters in the future, and as a method of creating the "family" he wishes he had. I think we could have seen Silver becoming more closely involved with this time through them (further than he already is with his membership to the secret freedom fighters). His detachment to the people here and the lack of thought he's given beyond completing his goals and enacting justice are part of why he's so reckless, so coming to care closely about a couple of people who are hiding just like them and their well-being/home would do him some good. Like Shard, I think we could have seen him getting used to working better in a team rather than trying to handle things on his own.

They're all outsiders, so perhaps they could have created a kinship together so they don't feel so lonely? They're more similar than they believe, and I feel that they could have all grown together as people with their similar problems and situations

Okay okay, if you've read this far I feel perhaps I should give a slight change of topic. So, for fanon purposes, I bid you to imagine Silver and Larry napping, curling up in their sleep, and Shard...bidding himself to watch. He'll probably tease Silver about it later or make some statement about how not needing sleep makes him superior, but for now he just enjoys the moment of peacefulness. He enjoys watching the two at their most vulnerable, sweetly curled up around each other, sleeping like nothing in the world is wrong.

[leaves everybody wings]

- 🐈‍⬛

CAPTAIN ZIMER

Oh, thank the fucking magic space gods someone left him something new. And food at that. Looks like it’s wings this time, and he mutters out a quick thanks to whoever may be listening before trying them.

… It’s spicy, but sweet. Either way, it’s really good, and he makes sure nobody is nearby as he goes to positively destroy them. Mango Habanero, not that he can place the flavor.

CURLY

Gifts again. That’s nice. He pokes at them a little before deeming them safe, taking a bite.

Thank god, it isn’t spicy. Seems to be Lemon Pepper. He’ll have to take this to the lounge to eat properly.

DAISUKE

YES!!! MEAT!!! WOOHOO. He gives a peace sign to where he thinks he might be seen, before taking out his phone and snapping a photo of the food. NOW he can try it. Just need to document everything first.

They’re Teriyaki flavored, and he bounces in place excitedly. Yup, he’s going to more than a few napkins. The lounge is his best bet.

SWANSEA

He smiles down at the chicken, taking a whiff to make sure it’s nothing poisoned. The scent hits him, and he knows what it is immediately. Buffalo wings. Isn’t that something?

He hasn’t had these in a few years, and takes his time. Once he retired from the emergency room, he wasn’t eating out as much. Certainly didn’t make him any skinnier, but that was his wife’s fault for cooking so damn good.

ANYA

… Oh! Hey, nice. She’s been feeling kind of nauseous because she hasn’t eaten yet. Lacking the energy to. But this was right here, and definitely better than whatever the Tulpar had to offer.

They’re standard barbecue, she realizes fairly quickly, but there’s a small side of sauce that she opens up. Blue cheese dressing. How did people know just want she wanted?

[advestager]

(its da avdol anon once again) And the two of them share a fire/water dichtomy, Avdol’s canonical fave food is sushi, so maybe in exchange, Jotaro can get hooked on koshary! I think sharing culture is a big part of their relationship, a little spark or drop in their eyes as they gaze in between sips of mint tea or matcha.

ANON. anon, anon hey, do you ever think about how the role jotaro played at the beginning of part 4 is basically the same avdol played for him in part 3? do you ever think about mirrors? about the cyclical nature of love? do you ever wonder if he realised, one of those nights alone yet again in an impersonal hotel room, nothing to fill all the empty space but himself and the soul sharing his body and the hours stretching until dawn?

do you wonder if he tried to live up to what he'd had, all those years ago – to how good he'd had it, however short a time it did last?

(not that i do, obviously. not that it fuckin' haunts me.)

also jzkrkjt listen, listen, i have a whole LIST of small things that would be cute in any relationship but which would probably OBLITERATE a 17 year old whose entire previous experience with romance is Girls Shrieking/Jostling Him For Attention and chief among them is the fact that apparently a common nickname for avdol's name is momo so like. please join me in imagining jotaro kujo, human disaster (because that boy is NOT fucking suave, i don't know what fandom is thinking that man literally OUTSOURCES his ONE LINERS) finding out about this, quietly wondering to himself what it might be like to try to call muhammed avdol, actual Hottest Man In The Universe, by a nickname just like avdol calls him jojo, and promptly jamming his hat down all the way to his fucking chin because now his face is on fire just thinking about it and oh god where's all the enemy stand users when you need to DIE

(star platinum would normally object to his user trying to harm himself, except the mental image of avdol not only allowing the nickname but smiling at them about it has made him crash catastrophically, and tech support is not available all the way out in Where-The-Fuck-Even-Are-We since mobile data has yet to be invented)

anyway ten bucks says avdol kinda likes being shorter than jotaro, and when he mentions it as an aside one time, jotaro tries so hard to hide how APPALLINGLY obviously he's been flustered by this information that he goes around looking menacing and stone-faced for a solid three days

[apollos-boyfriend]

you know what that's fair. i do think wilbur's humor is like. a charismatic form of awful boy from high school, but our struggles are not exactly alike, and i salute you. i hope your streamer gets well soon. or gets worse. your choice

he’s sadly beyond saving 😔 the only choice we have is to put him down atp

[septembersghost]

Didn't you get bullied for AdJaCeNcY 😭

bestie i got death threats, i got put on a LIST of evildoers for daring to let my mutuals exist and have fun while i mind my business, and all those years ago richard siken could've solved that with today's tweets. peace and love on planet earth
