The "Quiet Corners" Collection Has a New Home

I’ve been experimenting with video content for TikTok and Instagram’s Reels for the last few years. No, I’m not doing reaction videos to people cooking or lip-syncing to someone else’s song. I’ve mostly been building off my work with the “Old Haunts” series, aping off the short looping mise en scène style and trying some new stuff that is weird and occasionally creepy. I’ve been calling these…

Bountyhunter: Everyone stopped shooting...I’m going to check it out.

Echo: (handcuffed to a chair) I wouldn’t do that if I were you.

Bountyhunter: Why?

Echo: I’m pretty sure there’s a mean, scary monster on the other side of that door.

Bountyhunter: *scoff* Whatever. *opens door*

Hunter: *charges in snarling, knives drawn*

Bountyhunter: *screams*

Echo: Told you. ☺️

Poignant and emotional at the end there because Sue completed the task, and then put her hand over [the line] to help Julian before the task was over. So, she's out.

always thinking about when I was talking to a friend about IX about Ben’s death and she said “there was a whole lifetime in his smile” and I just. think about that forever.

Danny’s side of a phone call to a friend

“like, I get that you think I’d get along really well with your family, but I really don’t feel safe going to a new place.”

“ yeah, but my parents place is not-safe I know, you know? Sometimes the danger you’re familiar with is easier.”

” look, I’m sure your family is safe and not threatening, but everywhere feels unsafe to me. If the one place where I am supposed to be safe is not, how could I possibly feel safe anywhere else?”

“ I get that you want me safe. I get it. I’m just… I’m just scared.” sniffle

One Thousand

This is the one-thousandth post on this little website. It’s wild to think I’ve gotten to this point at all. Wilder still that it’s been nearly four years since I hit a milestone here. (Previously: 800. 600. 400. 200.) When I was last here, I had just finished draft one of Gleam Upon the Waves, a book that has been out for a few years now, and a work of which I am incredibly proud. (Now, if only…

The thing where a korean fan will say something stupid and then international fans will jump on it viciously and immediately just be saying the most transparently xenophobic shit never fails to shock me, and I've seen it a lot of times now so it probably shouldn't shock me, and yet!

headcanon that jason reads to cass. well, it started as him reading to cass -- she got to work on her literacy, and he got to share his favorite books with someone -- but it kind of isn't just cass anymore.

tim was the first to join them. he'd sit at the end of the couch and listen. jason's got a good voice for reading, very calm and measured, and having that sort of steady, relaxed sound in the background made tim feel comfortable enough to fall asleep to the sound of his brother reading.

damian, oddly enough, was next. he walked into the library one day, fully prepared to dye tim's hair purple or something while he was asleep, but he came across jason reading aloud and short-circuted a bit. he didn't get read to growing up in the league of assassins, so the concept was pretty foreign to him. but he kind of liked it. so he sat down in one of the chairs and listened.

dick's Sibling Bonding Radar just went off one afternoon and led him to the couch in the library. tim was already asleep and damian was settled into the armchair, entranced, so it was cass that made eye contact with him and put a finger to her lips, telling him not to interrupt. not that dick was going to -- he was already stretching out on the floor, careful to be absolutely silent so as not to disturb the peace.

steph, kate, duke, and barbara don't live at the manor, but every time they're in the house during this self-imposed quiet time, they'll find a spot on the couch or the floor to listen. in the kind of life they have (the one where you dress in kevlar and spandex and go out at night to punch people) (or during the day to punch people) (or you run an enormous computer to help the people in the kevlar and spandex... okay you get it) it's nice to have some quiet time with their family.

i think a lot of hostility could be cleared up to specify i dont necessarily ship jimcurly romantically. do i think they have some psychosexual shit going on? yeah. i feel like relationships in fiction (and irl lets be real) are regulated to just platonic, familial, or romantic when honestly i have a hard time labeling jimcurly or really most of my ships as only one of those. specifically cause i like the unhealthy, the ships i like are all soupy and complicated and complex and cant be labeled as this or that. which honestly is hella relatable to me as an aroace person. i just. i wish i could explain it coherently because yes i do think what jimmy and curly have is abusive and i dont even dislike it being just portrayed as an abusive friendship. like i like multiple interpretations and i find it really tiring that theres a belief that shipping means you believe theyre inherently healthy or that you only like one interpretation of their dynamic which is very untrue for me.
