I did already make a post about RotSH, but man...
I love this anime, it's in my top 3 and the protag is my fav character. Why did they ruin it so fricking much?
The series had so much potential. The 3 heroes could have become better, recognized Naofumi or even died, 3 good tropes. (Also angst. Imagine Naofumi being left alone as the Legendary Hero, and the world doesn't dare to kill him to summon new ones, because at this point killing him is 1. Impossible 2. The dumbest desicion ever. So he collects more daughters (maybe sons even) and spread them across his world to the point when The Shield Gang was waaay better than the 4 Heroes. Man I need to write this).
Naofumi could continue to explore his and other worlds, gaining xp and knowledge, being known as a God across dimensions.
L'arc's world troupe. Their cooperation, Kizuna's and Naofumi's research. Glass's help. Man that was good.
But nooooo, they added like 30 background characters who "play a big role" (I mean really? The tiger girl being Naofumi's "shiled"? Girl he's THE SHIELD HERO. You can't possibly level with him or the shield, go learn archery or something). Ost dying in a few episodes, the Pierro girl....
The other heroes became even more shallow. Motoyase lost his mind, Ren unlocked the Cursed Series after realising after MONTHS that this world is not a game. That troupe could've been way better.
The King's flashbacks and his obsession with the tiger girl.
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Not to mention the ENORMOUS amount of plot twists. A mistical rogue? Ren! A mistical archer-gladiator? Itsuki! Puff! RAPHTALIA IS A FUCKING PRINCESS OF SHE WAS WANTCHED THIS WHOLE TIME.
why
#shitpost#naofumi iwatani#the rising of the shield hero#shild hero#tate no yuusha no nariagari#raphtalia#motoyasu kitamura#ren amaki#itsuki kawasumi#shield hero s3#no but seriously#they took and awesome season 1#they make a bit onscure but rather good season 2#and then slapped season 3 like pineapple on award winning pizza#i am scared of s4#also theres no end seen to the series. how many more immortal creatures are there?#godhelp#aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Atla stans we are so here omg 😩 we feasted today. Awesome conclusion to the demon dragon emperor mini arc.




The demon dragon was no joke, even everyone combined was no match for it. Atla and Fohl’s combination completely changed the tide of battle. I’ve watched Atla’s attack sequence like 100x already and it doesn’t get old. Insane levels of sakuga and choreography in that moment. Truly living up to her name as Naofumi’s shield

We got to see the rest of Wyndia’s backstory as well which was nice. I love how even though she and her dad couldn’t directly communicate, they were still able to share their feelings with one another. She’s mourning the loss of her dad, but little does she know he’ll always be with her. Very nice ending for everyone involved

What If Season 3 - What If... the Red Guardian Stopped the Winter Soldier? Thoughts
"Now, think. Think back. What's the first thing you see?" Alexei Shostakov
"I see... I see... I see Coney Island." The Winter Soldier
"See! You are somebody. You are the Great Coney Island hero. And the Red Guardian is proud to fight next to you." Alexei Shostakov
Episode 3 was so peak. Alexei is so fun! I really wish we got a movie, a show, or something with him because he's such a fun character. His dynamic with Bucky is also pretty fun. We got so much lore about the assassination of Howard and Maria Stark. This is the last episode written by A.C. Bradley, and man I'm going to miss her writing and work in What If. Also, this episode was supposed to be in S2 (footage of it can be seen in S2's title sequences and the S2 finale fanfare) but was swapped out for the Corpsman Nebula episode which was supposed to be in S3.
Alexei's character in this episode is really great. He may be really enthusiastic about his belief in Communism and the Soviet Union, but it's clear he genuinely wants to do good. I really like how he isn't as dumb as he looks and how he sees the good and best in people. Someone also pointed out how since this is 1991, the USSR is on the verge of collapse, and Alexei thinks they will overthrow the US which shows how he was kept in the dark by his bosses about the USSR's deteriorating situation. Even Alexei realizes after he knows Dreykov and the Red Room are working with Capitalists that those at the top never truly cared about the ideals of the USSR as he did. I also find it funny that the What If situation possibly came that, What If Alexei stole the file of the Winter Soldier's assignment lmao. David Harbour was amazing casting for Alexei in the Black Widow movie and this episode continues to prove why it was perfect casting.
I really love how Dreykov and the Red Room knew about and was connected to HYDRA and the Winter Soldier. It makes me wonder if the Red Room's Sky Fortress was a HYDRA collaboration and the Red Room simply cut their ties with HYDRA after the Winter Soldier movie. While this doesn't fix my feelings about the Red Room's Sky Fortress, someone pointed out how HYDRA most likely covered up the Sky Fortress from SHIELD. This makes so much more sense than if the Sky Fortress was simply able to hide for so long because it was simply good at "hiding" lmao. I also liked how it pays off a fact from S2 Episode 2, Bucky as the Winter Soldier was used by the USSR. That's some great multiversal continuity there haha. I love the Red Room presence in this episode with Dreykov and the Red Room Task Force soldiers. Also, Antonia Dreykov being in the picture is pretty sad and dark given what happened to her and how Dreykov never truly cared about his own daughter.
I love to see Bill Foster in this episode and I love his suit from S2 Episode 2. It's just really nice to see Bill Foster as the hero Goliath since we never saw him in action before in the movies. Ranger Morales was also a fun new side-character for this episode.
The montage of Alexei and Bucky heading to the United States was perfect and funny with the major differences in their purpose and tone. When that Winter Soldier theme kicks in, I got the chills. I like that Alexei does have his morals, even if he says it's to spread Communism and the revolution, it shows how he doesn't tolerate the work HYDRA is doing. It's really funny seeing Alexei quip during his fight with Bucky that Bucky just resorts to biting him.
I laughed when Bucky and Alexei both agreed to go off the cliff, even Uatu was surprised. These two super soldier idiots really make for a funny team once Bucky loosens up a bit. The Russian music in this episode is both epic and funny given how it's used. I also love the comedic gag of Alexei trying his best to get Bucky to stop resorting to killing as the first solution to every problem.
Bucky legit has a mental crisis when he realizes he failed for the first time. I love the arc where Bucky even if for this mission broke out of the programming and realizes HYDRA never cared for them. The scene with him remembering Coney Island is so heartwarming given how he and Steve hung out at Coney Island. Likewise seeing him reject Dreykov’s kill order on Alexei was heartwarming to see. I also love how he listened to Alexei's advice of using his metal arm to block the bullets when Stane tried to kill them. Their friendship (they’re basically siblings in this episode) truly is one of the most heartwarming things to see how Alexei managed to bring the good out of the Winter Soldier and both of them considering themselves friends. Sebastian Stan's voice performance went a long way from him phoning it in back in Episode 1. Also “Technique!” haha.
"He's right, though. About the Red Room, Dreykov..." Alexei Shostakov
"Dreykov's a pig. All of them are. But not you. You are a good man." The Winter Soldier/Coney Island Hero
The Rook being Obadiah Stane was a surprise to me. It didn't register that was him until near his death and the end credits confirmed my suspicions. I was really surprised but yet also not surprised that Obadiah told the Russians (and therefore by extension HYDRA) about Howard's recreation of the super soldier serum. God, seeing Obadiah talk about how "amazing" Capitalism makes me sick, and glad to see him fall out of the window after Bucky threw Alexei's shield at him. Hopefully, with Howard and Maria Stark alive along with Stane's death, Tony's life will be a lot less messed up and has less daddy issues.
I really hope Vasily Karpov dies in Las Vegas that's one less HYDRA personal in this universe. Also, I hope when Bucky was being brainwashed that this time, it was less successful than the previous moments, thanks to Alexei's influence. Plus, thanks to Alexei disavowing the Red Room and his nation, the Siberian Winter Soldiers will never occur!
Also hell yes, Alexei gets to be a part of the Avengers and Captain America knows him!
Episode 3 is truly a peak episode and showcases a dynamic ripe with story and character exploration. It'll be very interesting to see how Thunderbolts will show the two interact. This episode uses its characters amazingly well.
Note: Someone pointed out that so far, each episode has a tiny person interact with someone or something much taller (Sam with Gamma Apex Bruce, Kingo with Celestial Agatha, and now Alexei and Bucky with Goliath). I wonder what Episode 4 will do to continue this streak haha.
"Fighting for survival. For acceptance. Fighting to be somebody. But in the end, the fight is never the point. It's your friendships that change the course of history. Even when they end." Uatu

pairing: invincible! yeosang x reader ft. san au: angst with no comfort genre: invincible word count: 1.5k synopsis: In every other universe, you and Yeosang are destined to fall in love—and it’ll always ends in tragedy. The only exception is the one universe where you’re both still alive… but not in love. warning(s): spoilers from s3 of invincible!!! blood, descriptions of war and death. characters deaths
enjoyed the post? check out my masterlist!
You stared at the news in horror, the live broadcast showing multiple Invincibles tearing through cities with unstoppable force. Panic clawed at your chest as you turned to San, already halfway into his hero suit.
You rushed to him, tears streaming down your cheeks, fingers gripping his arm in desperation. He paused, meeting your gaze—and in that moment, despite the mask of bravery he always wore, you saw it clearly.
He was terrified.
“Please… please don’t go,” you choked out between sobs.
San hovered in midair, the soft hum of energy beneath him barely audible over the pounding in your chest. He brushed a trembling strand of hair from your face before cupping your cheeks with both hands.
The kiss he pressed to your lips felt final—like goodbye. And that terrified you both.
He pulled back just enough to press one more kiss to your forehead. A silent promise. One he knew he couldn’t keep.
But he had to try.
Because you were everything to him.
And the world was begging for every supe it had left.
Without looking back, Wooyoung took off into the sky, leaving you alone in the home you once shared.
You stumbled back into the living room, your breath ragged, heart pounding so loudly it nearly drowned out the voice on the television.
“We strongly advise everyone to remain indoors and avoid the listed cities at all costs.”
The warning echoed through the room, but all you could hear was the silence he left behind.
San still hadn’t come back.
That sick feeling in your stomach hadn’t gone away—in fact, it had settled deeper, heavier. Like your body already knew what your heart refused to accept.
The last you'd heard of him, he was fighting in Chicago alongside a group of other supes. You only knew that because the news mentioned it in passing. No names. No updates. Just chaos.
The house was quiet. Dim. The lights stayed off, like flipping a switch might shatter the fragile stillness.
You were curled up on the couch, wrapped in a blanket that didn’t feel warm anymore, just weight.
Everything felt like waiting.
And dreading.
That was—until you heard it.
A sudden, heavy thump from upstairs.
Your breath caught in your throat, body frozen for half a second before instinct kicked in. You rushed to the kitchen, heart pounding so violently it drowned out every other sound.
Grabbing the largest knife from the drawer, you clutched it tight, pressing it close to your chest like it could shield you from whatever waited above.
Each step toward the staircase felt heavier than the last.
The silence returned, but it was the wrong kind. Too still. Too loud.
And then, another thud.
You tightened your grip.
And started up the stairs.
“You’re so cute to think you can sneak up on me darling.”
The voice was smooth—mocking, almost playful—but it chilled you to your core.
Your eyes widened, breath hitching as your heart plummeted.
Standing at the top of the stairs, partially shrouded in shadow, was an Invincible.
but not your world Invincible.
Your grip on the knife faltered.
“In… Invincible?” you whispered, the name catching in your throat, tangled with confusion and fear.
The figure tilted their head, a smirk curling on their lips.
“Surprised?”
You swallowed hard—
And before you could blink, he was right in front of you.
You gasped, stumbling back as the knife slipped from your hand and clattered uselessly to the floor.
His eyes burned into yours, uncomfortably close, too calm for someone so dangerous.
“Why the fuck,” he said, voice low and venom-laced, “are there pictures of you and San all over this place— and not a single one of us?”
You blinked, heart racing. “We’re… not together? Wh–who are you?”
Without hesitation, the Invincible ripped off his mask.
Yeosang.
Your neighbor—someone who had been part of your life for as long as you could remember. The boy next door who always offered a quiet smile, helped carry your groceries, waved from across the street.
But the man standing in front of you wasn’t your Yeosang.
This Yeosang looked tired. Worn down. Like life had scraped him raw.
And seeing him like that—eyes hollow, jaw tense—it twisted something in your chest.
“Yeosang…?” you breathed, barely audible.
He didn’t respond right away—just stared at you, eyes burning with a mix of hurt and something far darker.
“In my universe,” he said quietly, voice edged with desperation, “we’re together. We get married. We build an empire side by side. San… he’s nothing. He shouldn’t even be allowed to touch you.”
You took a shaky breath, heart thudding. “Your universe?” you scoffed, disbelief lacing your voice. “Yeosang, that’s insane. You haven’t spoken to me in years. What makes you think you have any claim over me?”
You meant the words. Every one of them. But still— Something about seeing him, even this version of him, cracked something open in you.
This wasn’t your world’s Yeosang. But the way he looked at you—like you were the only thing tethering him to reality— It brought every buried feeling rushing to the surface.
Yeosang raised an eyebrow, his gaze darkening, before he slowly reached out to brush a strand of hair from your face.
“You mean to tell me,” he murmured, “this universe’s Yeosang never made a claim on you? Pathetic. Come back with me. To my world.”
You scoffed, pushing his hand away with force.
“Fuck off, Yeosang.” The words tasted bitter, but you meant every one of them. “I’m happy here. With Wooyoung. You stopped talking to me the moment we entered high school. Then you and Amber started dating. And now you're with Eve?” You shook your head, a sharp laugh escaping. “Doesn’t even surprise me.”
Yeosang’s expression flickered for a moment—something like hurt flashed behind his eyes—but it was gone before you could make sense of it.
Without warning, Yeosang’s grip tightened around you, and in an instant, he blew another hole through your roof.
A scream tore from your lips as the world below vanished. Yeosang’s body shielded you as you were lifted into the air. Your eyes snapped shut, your heart racing—heights had always terrified you.
You could feel him chuckle softly, the sound mocking in its quiet cruelty.
“Let me go!” you cried out, desperation making your voice crack.
Yeosang’s grip tightened, his voice laced with malice. “Might want to rethink your wording, princess.”
The words sent a shiver down your spine, and you instinctively clung to him tighter, heart hammering against your ribs.
It wasn’t until a few moments later that Yeosang spoke again.
You felt your feet touch the ground, the rough surface beneath you jolting your senses back to reality.
Taking a quick peek, a gasp escaped you. The sight before you made your heart ache—the flames and ruins of buildings, the destruction that stretched as far as the eye could see.
Then it hit you—where you were.
You pushed Yeosang away from you, stumbling toward the edge, your pulse racing.
Yeosang rolled his eyes but approached you, his voice dripping with anger and disdain.
“San is dead. I had the pleasure of killing him.”
The words hit you like a physical blow, and for a moment, time seemed to stop. Your eyes locked on the scene in front of you, the devastation, the ruins—everything blurring together.
Tears streamed down your face, hot and fast, as your body collapsed to the ground. You couldn’t breathe, couldn’t think.
A cry tore from your chest, raw and uncontrollable, as Yeosang’s hand settled on your shoulder.
But you shoved it off, your body trembling with the force of your grief and fury.
“You—” you gasped, struggling to hold yourself together. “You did this?”
Yeosang chuckled darkly, his eyes glinting with satisfaction.
“Of course I did. I did this for you—because clearly, this world’s Yeosang can’t do jack shit. I made a deal, and now I’ll be claiming my prize.”
You stared at him, fury rising in your chest, your voice shaking but firm.
“I’m not some prize to be won! You murdered innocents—fuck, you even killed heroes! What in God’s name makes you think I’ll be going anywhere with you?” you screamed, the words lashing out like a whip.
Yeosang’s expression darkened, a vicious glare locking onto you as he stepped forward. You instinctively took a step back, your heart hammering.
“Who the hell do you think you’re yelling at?” His voice was low, menacing. “I can fucking kill you—just like I did last time. And if you exist in this world, I’ll find you in another.”
Your breath hitched, something thick and heavy lodged in your throat as you stared at him, the words barely leaving your lips.
“You fucking kill me... in your universe. You—how could I ever love you?”
Yeosang rolled his eyes, his lips curling into a bitter smirk.
“Don’t think so highly of yourself. You were just as crazy as I am, if not more. Baby,” he said, his voice dripping with venomous affection, “we’re meant to be. And I’ll be damned if I let anyone stop me.”

Moments with the Justice League: Powerless Atom [Part 2] | Bruce Wayne/Batman x OC!Magician
Synopsis: Inspired by Batman the Brave and the Bold S3 Ep10. During her visit to the Watchtower, Vivian witnesses one of the heroes being a total ass to Batman. Easter egg to Agatha Harkness in this chapter.
Next time, be a hero by remembering you’re not.
The wise words of Natham Adams, also known as Captain Atom.
Vivian cringed when she saw the commercial first then, and she still cringed when she saw it being presented to her and the other Leaguers in the Tower with the very Captain Atom.
“I didn’t think it was possible,” Aquaman, Arthur Curry, said.
“What? That he’s just as obnoxious in real life as he is on TV?” Vivian muttered.
“That, and that he’s worse than Booster Gold.”
“I’d take Gold right now for any mission,” she turned to Bruce. “You sure you need me for this one? I can endorse you to a lovely demon who can give you a hand.”
“Don’t worry, your job here is finished, I’ll have Cyborg open a Boomtube for you. You won’t be working with him,” said Batman. “And you know I wouldn’t bring you to this if I could help it.”
“I know, I was just joking,” she got on her toes and kissed his cheek.
“Looks like the JLA’s newest member fits right into it.”
“I didn’t know cocky was one of the requirements to be in the JLA…”
“Nice team you set up, Manhunter,” said Atom, finally finished with his gloating, and joined them. “Well almost.”
“The Professor is a consultant for the Justice League for the supernatural element, and she’s not part of the mission,” said Batman.
“I’m all into that—the voodoo and abracadabra.”
Vivian raised a brow.
“I meant it’s almost perfect but for our non-super friend here,” he patted Batman’s shoulder.
“Excuse you?” Vivian said.
“Come on, the guy has no superpowers, not even a lame one. Yet everyone here thinks he is the greatest superhero in the universe.”
Vivian was about to walk up to the guy and put him in his place but Bruce held her arm. It wasn’t worth it, was what he meant. A fist appeared before Bruce’s face, Atom had his red gloved fist at Batman and said, “Boom, you’re dead. Boom, you’re dead again.”
Vivian knew she had no right to complain, but fuck it, if she was going to have another minute with this noob who is so full of himself insult Bruce again, she was going to open a gate to Hell and kick him into it.
“You are crossing a line,” Manhunter faced Atom.
“He already has,” Vivian muttered.
“Even the villains buy into it, otherwise he would have been squashed the moment he stepped out of Gotham,” said Atom. “But he’ll make an awesome cop.”
Batman only hummed in annoyance as a response.
“But to be a superhero? That takes superpowers. I bet that’s why he brought his girlfriend over too.”
Before Vivian could walk up to him, Bruce led her away from Atom and to the deck where Cyborg was.
“It’s not worth it,” Bruce told her. “I might be able to come home tonight.”
“I know, I’ll tell Jason… hey be careful out there.”
Batman smiled and had his arms on her waist. Cyborg had to act as if he wasn’t in the room and focus on his work. It was already a surprise that his supposed professor was in the Watchtower and has powers and was dating Batman, this is just awkward: being a front row audience to their PDA. No, what really makes it weird was the fact Batman has this side of him.
“I will, I’m not as incompetent as Atom says I am,” Batman jokes.
“I know, and you’re still the greatest superhero there is.”
Cyborg coughed.
“Cyborg too. He’s also a great superhero,” Vivian laughed.
“I’ll take that,” Cyborg said. “I have the Boomtube ready, Professor.”
Vivian placed a kiss on Bruce’s lips before, making Cyborg look away. “Come home, and if you ever need a human shield, I suggest you use Captain Asshole.”
Bruce had to let her go and watched as Vivian disappeared to the Boomtube. Once she was gone, silence came to the room.
“So, uh…” Cyborg began.
“Our team will be heading out to investigate another incident. We might need another Boomtube,” said Batman.
Right, just like any other day, it never happened.
~ * ~
Vivian and Jason were having a movie night when she got the call from Batman to come to the Watchtower. She apologized to Jason and said they’ll continue to watch when she gets back but the boy jumped from the couch and followed her to her and Bruce’s room insisting he comes along.
“Fine,” Vivian sighed. “Just make it quick, Batman wants us there now.”
“I’ll go get my uniform!” Jason ran to his room.
As Vivian and Jason got to the living room wearing appropriate clothes, and met with Alfred who held up her red coat, a Boomtube appeared in the very center. Batman stepped out.
“Welcome back, Sir,” said Alfred.
“We won’t be staying long,” he told Alfred, then to Vivian, “It’s…”
“On a scale of one to ten, how serious is it?”
“Worldwise? One. Captain Asshole? Ten.”
“Oh! Now I’m curious,” Vivian walked with Jason through the Boomtube and the three of them stepped into the Watchtower deck where she was greeted by Aquaman, Manhunter, and Natham Adams. Not Captain Atom, but Natham Adams.
“I think I got the gist,” Vivian said to Batman.
“Yeah.”
“He’s Captain Asshole?” Jason said, and Vivian covered his mouth.
“Kids, am I right?” she laughed. “So, shall we move to the infirmary?”
~ * ~
The enemy their team faced was a magician who was stealing some artifacts from STAR Labs. Atom thought it was a good idea to face the supernatural on his own until he blasted the witch with his powers and it was stolen from him.
“Interesting,” Vivian smirked. “That old witch… say, did you ever piss off a woman with black hair and has a cranky and snarky attitude?”
“Is that even a question you should be asking?” Aquaman raised a brow at her. Obviously he has.
“Scratch that, she’s always pissed with everyone,” Vivian waved her hand away and the runes disappeared. “Good news and bad news.”
“Good news first,” said Batman.
“I know who took your magic, and I got her calling card.”
“Great, you can make her give me back my powers!” Atom got up from the bed, commanding her.
“Hold your horses Captain A,” Vivian raised her hand at him. “Bad news… Agnes O’Connor, aka the witch who did this to you, is a powerful witch who is also known as the Witch Killer. She would kill witches by taking their power and life force for herself and for her demon lord. The chances of me surviving an encounter with her is near zero.”
“Then what use are you!?”
“Hey, watch it!” Jason sneered at Atom.
“But if I, let’s say, have her over to a neutral ground, like Midnite’s, I can try to strike a deal with her.”
Batman didn’t like it when Vivian dealt with deals. Deals in dark magic always have a price. “What kind?”
“The usual. My soul, my power, she might even sell me to my headache down below, who knows.”
“We’ll find another way to get Atom's powers,” said Batman.
“If she is your way to get them, why wouldn’t we take it?!” Atom glared at Batman. “You don’t get to be selfish in this line of work.”
“I’m not… but not when it comes to Vivian. Not when it comes to my family.”
“Don’t worry about me, it’s not me she’ll be dealing with. She’ll be dealing with Captain A,” Vivian smirked.
“I’ll do it. What’s the worst she could do?” Atom said to her.
This time, she grinned. “Oh, this isn’t like poker with your chips and cash… we—my people—we deal with souls and service. There are those who never get to live the days of their freedom because they’re bound to the witch they’ve struck a deal with for their entire life. Are you ready for that?”
There was a moment of hesitation in Atom’s eyes.
“I’ll leave to think it out. While you do, I’ll try to find Agnes. Can I take Jason with me?”
Batman left Atom’s side and followed Vivian and Jason as they left the infirmary and were walking hand-in-hand down the hall to where Cyborg was.
“Viv, what are you doing?” Batman told her.
“Finding Agnes.”
“No, it’s too dangerous, and I doubt Atom has the ego to be some old witch’s errand boy.”
“Trust me, by the time he comes to his senses and wants to meet with the witch, I’ve already set up the meeting place with Midnite and her. Don’t worry about it.”
She was learning. Even he knew Atom would take the deal if it meant getting his powers back.
“Jason and I are just going to make a few calls, and a couple of ravens to visit. We can take the Batmobile, right?”
“No.”
Vivian and Jason sighed and the two turned to each other, “I tried.”
“No you didn’t,” said Jason.
“We’ll be waiting at home… and I’m going to teach Jason how to play poker.”
“I already know how!”
“Well, you, me and Alfred will be playing poker until Captain Asshole finally comes to his senses and submits to an eternity of becoming Agnes O’Connor’s errand boy… we’ll be waiting for you, my love. Don’t take too long!”
She walked ahead, turning to the deck where Cyborg usually worked.
~ * ~
It took twenty-four hours before she got another call from Batman that they were coming to the cave. Vivian and Jason got dressed and went down just as the Boomtube appeared and Batman, Aquaman, and Captain Atom stepped out. With Atom wearing a costume that had his symbol.
“Take me to the witch,” said Atom.
Vivian smirked. “She’s on her way to Midnite’s.”
“Already set up the meeting? You knew I’d go for it?”
“Once someone gets a taste of power, they never want to go back to being as they were before. But are you sure you’re ready for it? She’ll be dealing with you, not me. I’m just the mediator.”
“I am.”
“Great! But I doubt we’ll fit in the car…”
“We’ll use the Boomtube,” said Batman and opened another portal, this time it will take them to the club.
~ * ~
Entering the club was tricky, with Vivian having to negotiate with Pyotr about letting the supers in, but after a little bribe and answering the card, they were in.
“What is this place?” Atom said in horror as he saw the vampires and other creatures drinking, dancing, and fucking everywhere. The entire time they walked, Vivian had her hands on Jason’s eyes.
“Viv, I come on!” Jason whined.
“A neutral ground for the occult,” a woman with long black hair wearing a purple dress appeared before them. She smirked when she saw Atom and then Vivian. “Vivian Pryor, I got your message,” she conjured the tarot card that was the Three of Swords. Flipping it over, she showed the symbol of Midnite’s club and Vivian’s sigil at the bottom. “What a surprise, I never expected Madeline Pryor’s daughter to come to me. Your mother made an effort to keep away.”
“Agnes, looking,” Vivian greeted. “Shall we continue our talks in Midnite’s shop? I booked it just for us.”
Agnes looked at her then looped her arm around Vivian’s as they walked down the club and towards the closed doors. “You’ve grown. Last I saw you, you were… Well, you’re just a teen who thought she could take over the world with her mediocre power. Say, I haven’t felt that in a while now. Finally lost it?”
“Maybe I just got better.”
“Oh, I doubt it. If you had, you wouldn’t be setting up this little meeting and just make me give Captain Asshole’s powers again.”
They came to the door. Vivian and Agatha showed the card that had Midnite’s sigil and their own, and they were let through by the guards, with the members of the JLA and Robin with them. Crossing the threshold, they were transported to a quieter place and at the other side of town, for some reason.
“I have the back room for you ladies,” Midnite pointed to the curtains. “Do not make a mess.”
“We won’t, Papa Midnite,” Vivian gave him a wad of cash for payment.
The room was big enough for their crowd, Agnes made herself comfortable at head seat but neither of the League sat, nor did Vivian and Jason.
“The boy’s yours?” Agnes pointed to Jason. “Good, start ‘em young.”
Vivian frowned, leaning down, she whispered to Jason: “Hey, go wait with Midnite.”
“But I want to be here with you,” said Jason.
“Please, Robin.” She wasn’t risking Jason for anything. She knew Agnes’ reputation with children, they were a currency for her and her demon lord.
“Fine,” Jason walked out of the room, closing the door after him.
“You’ve grown soft,” Agnes said to her. “I guess it’s straight to business, huh? My answer: No.”
“What were you doing in STAR Labs?” Batman questioned.
“Oh, you know, window shopping,” Agnes shrugged.
“You blasted all the windows until there was nothing left,” Aquaman pointed out.
“I take window shopping very seriously.”
Atom slammed his hands on the table. “We came here for one reason, and one reason only! I want my powers back!”
Vivian sighed and pulled up a chair for herself and sat down. A wave of a hand she had the wine from Midnite’s shelf and had it pour into two glasses—one for her and one for Agnes.
“You were right about him, he is Captain Asshole,” Agnes accepted the wine.
“I warned you about it,” said Vivian. “He’s all yours, High Priestess.”
Agnes hummed. “What if I don’t want to deal with him?” She turned to Vivian.
“You are, lady! I want my powers ba—”
A wave of a hand from Agnes and Atom’s mouth disappeared. “Shush now, the adults are talking,” she told him. “I don’t deal with lowlives, Pryor.”
“He’s the one with the deal,” Batman told her. “Not her.”
Before Agnes could cast a spell at him, Vivian placed a protection spell on Batman and Aquaman. “They’re off limits.”
“Especially this one,” Agnes gestured to Batman. “Your magic is all over him. You’re all over him. You have good taste, I can’t say with your mother… She had a good deal with your dad, but really? A mortal?”
“There is a line, Agnes,” Vivian sneered. “We came for Atom’s power.”
Agnes smirked. “He can have it back but not for free,” she turned to the Leaguers, “Your teammates was a little—he was a bitch and he pissed me off.”
“What’s the price? And let’s skip the whole, I want his soul, we both know he won’t do that.”
“Fine… just so you know STAR Labs has a very important tablet that I need.”
“For what?”
“A personal project. None of your business.”
“It’s your business if it has something to do with the end of the world, Agnes.”
“Nothing world ending, I promise.”
“I’m sure the Justice League can lend it to you on the weekends. Shared custody.”
“Then he can have his powers on the weekends. Shared custody.”
Batman approached the table. “She can have it until she finishes her work.”
“Then he gets his powers only when I have it.”
Vivian groaned and ran her hand through her hair. “Why do you need his powers?”
“I don’t. He just pissed me off,” Agnes flipped off Atom.
“He pisses all of us! But we didn’t take his powers. We lend you the tablet until your work is done, and you give Atom’s powers back.”
“Oh, Vivi, you didn’t take it because you’re good. You didn’t take it because you can’t. I know a binding spell when I see one,” Agnes smirked. “Demons whisper in the Pits, and the rumors of Mammon have reached my lord demon’s ears.”
Vivian glared at her. “I’m starting to think maybe Nathan Adam can live off without his powers.”
Atom argued, he tried to protest but without a mouth it was just muffles.
“He’s trying to say something,” Agnes lifted the spell, returning Atom’s powers.
“I’ll do anything!” Atom exclaimed.
“Really?”
“Ye–”
“Nathan, think this through, making deals with a witch can cost more than just your powers. It can cost your life,” Vivian told him.
“What is it she wants? I want my powers,” said Atom.
“That’s what we’re trying to do here. Negotiate,” Vivian returned to Agnes. “What will it take?”
Agnes sighed, exasperatedly, and said, “How about I pull a little something from mommy’s book? I want you to use that little power you have and activate that tablet.”
“Why don’t you do it?”
“I don’t want to.”
“Don’t want to or because you can’t? What is that tablet anyway?”
Agnes avoided the question but Batman answered, “It is said to be some ritual that old tribes would use to seal power. Monsters. Or that’s what STAR Labs interpreted it tobe.”
Vivian smirked. “You want to seal away your demon,” Agnes remained silent. “But you can’t because you can’t harm your own Lord Demon… Fine, you can have me for this deal.”
“Vivian, don’t—”
“I’ll exorcise your demon, but you give Atom’s powers back. Deal?”
Agnes looked at her outstretched hand, pondering for a moment. “Deal,” they shook hands.
~ * ~
“Vivian, this is insane!” Bruce said as he watched Vivian and Midnite draw a circle made out of salt around Agnes. “I told you, I wouldn’t risk your life for this!”
Finished with the circle, Vivian turned to him and said, “This isn’t about Atom anymore… it’s helping someone… Agnes can be a bitch but she doesn’t deserve that demon. No one deserves to be haunted or hunted by anything… So, it’s not for him. It’s for her. Okay?”
Stiffly, Bruce nodded and stepped back. He brought with him Jason and hid Robin behind him and Aquaman. Agnes did say the demon has a thing for eating children.
She took the bible from Midnite and they both faced the bound woman.
“What about my powers?” Atom asked.
“Shut up!” The three magicians exclaimed.
“Ready?” Midnite asked her.
“Da locum, dirissime, da locum, impiisssime, da locum Christo, in quo nihil invenisti de operibus tuis: qui te spoliavit, qui regnum tuum destruxit, qui te victum ligavit, et vasa tua diripuit.”
Agnes shook violently in the circle. Hissing in every word of the spell casted. The circle burned bright red with hell fire, but as Vivian continued the spell it turned gold—the blessed flames of the Phoenix—and Agnes screamed in pain.
From her body, as Vivian and Midnite continued the exorcism prayer, a shadow of a figure wreathed in agony. The old witch started to cough and vomit all over the floor, first the wine, then blood, then a hand burst out of her.
“Jesus!” Atom gasped in horror.
The hand reached out and crawled its way out of Agnes until its slithering body was out and formed on the floor, standing. Leaving the witch unconscious. The demon looked at Vivian menacingly and roared at her.
“Pryor… you dare take me from my host!” Said the demon.
“What is your name?” Vivian ordered.
“I will carve out your insides and eat them myself!”
“I order you to give me your name!”
“Agilieth!” Agnes choked out. “Lord Agilieth!”
“You bitch!” Agilieth was about to take Agnes but then Vivian continued the spell.
“Visita, quaesumus, Domine, habitationem istam, et omnes insidias inimici ab ea longe repelle. Exi ergo, Agilieth. Plene omni dolo et fallacia, virtutis inimici, innocentium persecutor, Agilieth. Visita, quaesumus, Domine! Run along and fuck off back to hell.”
The demon burned in hell fire and disappeared from the shop and the mortal world.
Midnite sighed. “That took care of it. You all done? Clean that up.”
Vivian snapped her fingers and the vomit disappeared from the ground. Squatting down, she looked at Agnes with an expectant look. The woman can’t leave the circle until the deal was done.
“Fine,” said Agnes and pointed her hand at Atom who she blasted with a powerful magic, sending the man through the door and out the shop. “It’s done. Stop gloating, Pryor, it doesn’t suit you.”
Vivian got up and held out her hand to the older witch but Agnes brushed it off and got up herself. “I’m leaving Gotham.”
“Good,” said Batman.
Glancing at Vivian, Agnes said, “You’re not bad, kid… you’re just like your mother, in some ways. She was good. Really good.” She stepped out of the circle and disappeared into the night.
Atom came back to the shop, his powers back. “Thank you, I guess,” he said to Vivian.
“Please, say that again, but add ‘Thank you, you are the most powerful witch there is,’” Vivian held out her phone that was recording.
“Hey, she did you a favor,” Jason spoke up.
Batman and Aquaman only looked at him, smirking.
Atom sighed.
~ * ~
“That humbled Atom a bit,” Vivian said as she saw the latest commercial with Captain Atom. “all it takes is a good demon and a witch to put you back in your place.”
It was a Sunday and in the afternoon. The couple were having a lovely time doing nothing in the Manor and just watching television. Jason was doing his homework upstairs, and Alfred some chores.
“Did his attitude improve?” Vivian asked Bruce as he joined her in the couch. He had her lay down on him as he took the corner.
“A little,” Bruce said. “And for some reason, his ringtone is ‘Batman’s wife saved my ass from a little demon’, over and over.”
“Oh! I forgot!” Vivian took her phone and called Atom’s phone, for the tenth time that day, it rang for a couple of minutes before she ended it. “Just a little spell, and no matter how many times he try to put it back to its original settings. He can’t.”
Bruce laughed and then kissed her lips. “You are one hell of a witch.”
“And you’re the greatest superhero there is, Batman.” She kissed him again, this time, she maneuvered to straddle him, and was directly on his crotch, and Bruce welcomed her advances.
“GOD! ALFRED, THEY’RE DOING IT AGAIN IN THE LIVING ROOM!” Jason stormed back up the stairs.
Vivian and Bruce laughed but they still continued kissing each other.

— RETURN pairing. crosshair x gn! reader
**
type. oneshot note. couldn't contain myself with the release of the s3 trailer ... so have a little crosshair fluff! along with some sweet crosshair and wrecker reunion warnings. fluffy flamingo fluff word count. 839
star wars masterlist || pinned post
"Easy, buddy, I got you." That voice.
Despite his delirious state, Crosshair couldn't help but recognise it, yet he couldn't exactly pinpoint as to where he'd heard it before - it felt so close ... so intimate, in a way.
He tried to grasp a clear image of what was going on, of who that voice belonged to, but as soon as he'd opened his eyes, he already regretted it. The world blurred into a sea of colours and the blaster sounds in the distance barely reached him, dimming into the background. Deciding that he could worry about his faceless hero later, his mind immediately went on to the next important subject he could think of.
"Find ... " he slurred, trying to piece any kind of comprehensive sentence together, "Ome ..." He couldn't even properly finish his sister's name before his lights went out.
Two and a half hours.
That’s how much time had passed since you all had victoriously reached the Marauder and taken off into the safety of hyperspace.
And it’s also how much time had passed since Crosshair had been knocked out, holding loosely onto you with an arm draped around your shoulder as you tried your best to support his weight and taller frame while also holding off the blaster fire of the stormtroopers.
“He’ll be fine,” Wrecker tried to cheer you up, gently patting your back, “It ain’t the first time he’s been knocked out.” You tried your best to give him a small grin, yet the doubtful grimace of a smile was all you could manage.
Normally, lifting a team member’s spirit would’ve been Hunter’s job. However as soon as the sergeant had laid his eyes upon Crosshair’s broken state, dull brown eyes staring back at him, Hunter’s leader facade had cracked.
You knew he blamed himself for Crosshair and Omega’s imprisonment and the endless torture they likely had been put through. Night after night had you sat next to him, embracing him and whispering sweet nothings. You couldn’t even begin to imagine what kind of weight he carried wordlessly upon his shoulders.
As soon as you’d gotten a hold of the two, Hunter had seen red, fully blinded by all those emotions, all that anger that had been he'd been battling internally for weeks, even months now. He hadn’t hesitated to put a blaster shot between any imp he'd come across on your way back.
You couldn’t blame him. Had you not been holding on to Crosshair, you likely wouldn’t have acted any differently.
The sudden string of mumbled words brought you back to the present and your gaze immediately settled on the unconscious sniper now slowly but surely waking up. He blinked, once, twice before shutting his eyes again and frowning, reaching up to shield his face from the burning lights. "Ugh, Wrecker," he hissed, "Dim the knifing lights, they-"
Suddenly his words were caught in his throat as his eyes widened and he shot up, scanning his surroundings for a second before settling on Wrecker. "You - you're here!" An expression of bewilderment and surprise stretched across his face and before you knew it, tears were glistening in the corners of his eyes.
Wrecker rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly, "Yeah, well ... we couldn't let the Imps keep our best marksman, could w- oof!" Before he could finish his sentence, he was engulfed into an uncharacteristically tight hug as Crosshair wrapped his arms around his big brother. Hesitantly, Wrecker raised his arms before returning the hug and soon enough, there were tears falling on both ends.
You smiled as you watched the reunion unfold, and after a few minutes of loving silence, you stood from your seat on the rack, ready to head out and give the brothers some space to catch up before Wrecker cleared his throat.
"Uhm," he started, pulling back from the embrace and rubbing the back of his neck sheepishly, "I think you two have might have some stuff to talk about, too." He then swiftly headed out, though not without giving you an encouraging grin.
You two wordlessly eyed the floor for what felt like an eternity. What does one say in such a situation? You didn’t know. And it seemed neither did he.
“I’m sorry.” Crosshair finally broke the silence. You looked up. “What?”
He sighed, averting your gaze. “I’m sorry - about everything. How I treated my brothers, Omega … not to mention you.” Finally he glanced at you, brows furrowed and the familiar wetness sparkling in his eyes once more. “I fucked up. I - Shit, I could’ve killed you, I could’ve-”
You shut him up by pressing your lips against his. For a second, the marksman is taken aback before kissing back, carefully cradling you in his arms and pulling you closer to his chest. After what felt like forever, you were pulled apart by the fatal requirement that is air. When your breathing finally stabilised, you hummed, pressing your forehead against his.
"I'm just happy you're back."
if you're interested in being tagged for my future works, let me know in my comments or by sending me an ask!

Seeing discussions about Disventure Camp has once again got me seeing people use the term “plot armour” without any consistency on what that means. In some cases it seems to be synonymous with “plot bad”. I know nothing will change, but I still feel like arguing about it anyway.
Plot armour should be reserved for characters who have NO explanation for how they survive, OTHER than the plot needs them. If the character HAS a valid reason to survive, even if you don’t like it, it doesn’t count as plot armour. If all characters who reach the end of the plot, regardless of how, are therefore considered to have plot armour, then the term loses all meaning.
If a hero is being attacked by a sword, and they defend themselves with a shield, it’s NOT plot armour. You can’t just say, “but the writers conveniently gave them a shield, therefore plot armour.” No, if it’s convenient the hero has a shield, it’s convenient the villain has a sword. If you say the writers just gave the character a solution, well then the writers also gave that character a problem in the first place. You also can’t say, “the hero doesn’t morally deserve to have a shield.” That’s still not plot armour, that’s something else.
Feel free to criticize the plot, but it’s bizarre to see people say that characters they dislike have plot armour, even if that character has an in-universe explanation for why they’re still around. Like, use a different term. A character’s arc can still be unsatisfying and handled poorly, even if they don’t have plot armour.
(Spoilers for S3 Ep 20) I would say Riya has plot armour when the challenge was to cross the finish line with 10 gems. Riya didn’t get them, Ally’s bag may have ripped, but then neither finished the challenge properly. It’s never explained why Riya won, she just did. Meanwhile when characters don’t vote for Jake and he therefore survives elimination, I wouldn’t call it plot armour. He doesn’t have plot armour if the other characters have bigger priorities, that’s a perfectly valid explanation. I certainly think DC has a lot of plot holes, but I don’t think the term plot armour should be used so liberally.

As an Atla stan it���s so good to see her personality being brought to life on the screen. Sneaking out of the room at night and tying up Fohl so she can go sleep with Naofumi 😂 .. her arguments with Raphtalia.. just great. It really feels like they’ve brought to life the dynamic from the books. This season feels so much more faithful, shoutout to the staff.






Speaking of which, Rat and Galeon are here now as well which means the family dynamic from the LN is on full display at this point. Even Ren is beginning to settle into life in the village. After everything he’s been thru, it’s great seeing Naofumi have a proper family.


Only complaint I had with the episode was the CGI for Galeon. Idk who was in charge of that but damn that looked bad. Hopefully that improves going forward

it’s your friendly neighborhood heroes anon! you seem to maybe kinda like the petrellis, so i’ll give you a fun ask about them.
what do you think peter and nathan were like with each other growing up? i’ve seen a bunch of different headcannons from people. in some they’re only like 8 years apart and in others it’s 14. some people think nathan was seen as more of a ‘cool cousin that gets you booze’ type by peter and they never really saw each other much, but when they did it was a fun time. but then in other fics nathan and peter are basically conjoined at the hip even after nathan graduates.
it’s all a big mess, and i don’t know who to believe lol. your thoughts? don’t be afraid to ramble on and on (and on)
Hi!!! I love to talk about the Petrellis haha so here goessss 💖💖
Ooh so first of all, I don’t rly know anything abt the supplemental stuff like the comics lol but not many ppl do anyway lmao
And secondly, in regards to their age gap we can roughly work it out from a few things: s1-s4 take place over roughly ~2 years (for instance Claire is 15-16 in s1 and 18/going to college in s4). Peter was born in December 1979 and is 26 in s1 (stated in canon), Nathan is similarly stated to be 40 in s4 (so ~38 in s1). So I’ve always interpreted them as being 12 years apart. Which yes, is a pretty sizeable age gap and means they wouldn’t have hung out in the same way that siblings of closer ages/in similar life stages would have. Peter and/or Nathan would be away at fancy boarding school, Nathan was in the military for parts of Peter’s childhood.
Their childhood is not super filled in by canon so a lot of this is my personal headcanon/interpretation (be warned for subjectivity/filling in the gaps) but I think their clinging to each other/closeness did start very young regardless of the age gap. Their father was terrifying and emotionally abusive as fuck, controlling to Nathan and at best dismissive and neglectful to Peter, Angela at least loves them in her own way but isn’t much better as a parent and is actively manipulative/gaslighting them all the time lmao and they live in an insane household that forced them together due to this (no wonder they’re Like That).
I think Nathan’s always been protective of Peter and wanted to be there for him/stand in front of him to shield him (though I think he’s later a little resentful about it, similarly Peter sometimes sees Nathan as too much of a puppet to their parents and doesn’t get why he didn’t stand up for himself more/gets frustrated with him, but Nathan was literally moulded from birth to be their obedient little attack dog who’d do whatever they wanted him to. Nathan in s3 saying his evil mind-controlling dad chose his career and even the person he married was picked out for him. There’s a reason that he seems so spineless.) but Nathan’s exception has always been Peter - the one thing he’ll defy his parents for. In s1 he goes along with what he’s meant to do until it comes time for him to pick The Plan or Peter, and he sacrifices himself for Peter. I think Angela never even considered that Nathan would choose Peter over her plan for him, which was the flaw in her machinations lol.
Peter also mentions in s4 that Nathan would rearrange his military leave to be there for Peter’s birthday, etc. i think that they were really happy to see each other every time they got to, it gave them some escape with someone who wasn’t their parents, who understood what it was like to grow up in that family. They’re hugely different people, but in part because Peter was allowed that freedom to be himself and have his own opinions that Nathan simply didn’t have, and again I think Nathan at once kind of resents this and also fiercely wanted that for Peter and is proud of him, despite the way he’s mean to him sometimes lol.
Of course I’d be remiss not to mention the infamous s2 deleted scene, where Nathan says that he and Peter used to steal Arthur’s scotch and go out to the treehouse and he ‘got him drunk for the first time’ up there. Not sure exactly when but this has to have been when Peter was a teenager, and… whew. The way Nathan delivers this with such anguish (‘why did I go back there…’) says so much about how intensely he feels about this whole thing, like, whatever really happened in that treehouse was a LOT and he’s having a LOT of feelings about it. I think when Peter was a teenager their closeness started becoming TOO much and too intense and it scared Nathan a bit as much as he wanted to hold onto Peter. But aaaaanyway….
I just love me some codependent brothers lmao so I’ve probably coloured it more towards that in my own perception. But basically I do think they were close regardless of the age gap!

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 & Knuckles (Knuckles) Part 3: Hyper not living up to the hype
Unfortunately I had to cut this one short because I had to stop the session, so it’s just me Emerald hunting
So while we’re here what about those Super and Hyper forms for Tails and Knuckles?
They’re lame
I don’t understand why Sonic gets to have a unique design, but Tails and Knuckles (and later Amy, Mighty and Ray) only get to glow a little. They don’t even fly! Tails is especially egregious because he still needs his tails to fly and can still get tired!
Not only is it lame from a gameplay perspective (Tails’ invincible flickies would be great if not for the fact that he himself is already invincible thus making it much faster to kill enemies yourself, and Hyper Knuckles is literally just Super Knuckles except he has a wall smash attack that is nowhere close to being as versatile and fun as Hyper Sonic’s hyper dash), it also makes little sense from a lore perspective
I know that the whole “Sega said only male hedgehogs can turn Super” has (from what understand at least) been proven by a member of Sonic Team itself to be misinformation, but this is one of those cases where I think the games themselves don’t do themselves any favors because look: Sonic, Shadow and Silver get proper Super forms, all the others only have them in the Classic games and they just glow a bit, while in the modern games no one else ever turns Super and that one time in Heroes Tails and Knuckles only receive Super Shields from Super Sonic. The only exception to the rule being Blaze really. It’s easy to imagine, even from an outside perspective, that the super forms of most characters that we see in the classic games are a purely gameplay related thing and not story canon. I’m not claiming that’s the case, just that that would be an easy conclusion to come to just looking at the material on its own
Furthermore it just doesn’t make sense period: Knuckles should have more proficiency at handling the Emeralds given his ties to the Master Emerald, honestly he should be second only to Shadow! I remember reading somwhere that the reason why Tails needs the Super Emeralds to transform is because he has little experience. I wanna stress that I don’t know if this is official or fan theory, but either way it’s just nonsense: oh sure he doesn’t have the ability to handle the powers of the Emeralds, but their more powerful versions? He can handle those no issue!
And if we really wanted to follow this type of logic then, again, Sonic himself should have trouble using the Emeralds, because he, by this point, has only encountered them 3 times, and the first time it wasn’t even the full set! Yet he can totally use their full power by his second adventure with them, while Tails for some reason still has issues and Knuckles, the guy who’s spent his life guarding the biggest Emerald of all, can just do the bare minimum with them?
And for the record: no I’m not saying I want everyone to spam Super forms all willy nilly. But when I see Sonic go Super to fight the latest threat while the others just stay back and cheer him up I would really like to know why exactly it’s always just him and maybe one other guy who’s turning Super instead of the whole gang which, y’know, would be more practical? (I mean look at SA2: Sonic and Shadow turn Super to fight the Biolizard while Knuckles, the guy who should also be able to go Super according to S3, just stays there literally slack jawed)

What are the relationship of Li with Mk and others and Shen too if its alright?(Sorry I'm just really invested in your oc's🥺✨)
DON'T BEE I LOVE TALKING ABT THEM 🥹❤
Also phew this one is gonna long answer so prepare! :'D,
1. Note: Li makes his first appearance in mid season 2 while Shen makes his first appearance in mid season 4!
Li Xin:
Mei dragon:
Just like I wrote on his sheet, she's Li's childhood bestie and are super close, for Li she's seen as a possible love interest too! Problem is that he's too scared to say anything and doesn't wanna ruin the long friendship they share so he loves her in silence :')
MK:
Just like the rest, Li only knows him through Mei. At first, Li was doubting him and judging him in all ways, didn't really like him at first because he thought he was the only best friend Mei had lmao he was kind of jealous tbh.
But around season 3 Li sees MK as an close friend too! The moment MK had to start figuring things on his own, that is when Li was able to relate to him a lot. He would often try to mentally support him and just be there for him as much as he needed. He adores the way he is and also apologizes to him for his behavior and now he's extra caring for him. uvu
Monkey King/Sun Wukong:
Nope. Not even a bit. For Li monkey King is a burden. He gets to learn about him throughout the season 2, 3 and 4 and he is not very convinced by him. He often try to avoid talking to him and be annoyed with his presence alone. He only sees the bad traits instead of the good ones. In the end of season 4 he does get to learn more about him, but stays natural towards him. So he doesn't really see him as friend.
Tang:
For Li he's sorta a mutual than a close friend. He doesn't bond with him much but they had their moments too. Li gets to see his troubles too and notices his lack of confidence. He often try to tell him the opposite though. By now you'd know that Li is sort of the therapy friend of the bunch.
Pigsy:
Just like Tang a mutual. he would often take advice from him when it comes to cooking because Li had to microwave his food most of the time because he is a student. He'd love to learn how to cook proper meals for his health and regrets never learning it from his parents. Pigsy gladly teaches him as well. Li also learns quickly and he's thankful he's here too.
Sandy:
Li sees him as a close mutual. At first he was quite suspicious of him because he never saw so much kindness before. Almost made him believe that guy is not what he seems to be. He actually had a lot of doubts in everyone but slowly he warmed up to him too and saw a genuine kind individual. Since he received pain and suffering most of the time he often got fooled by people who pretended to be kind. He's glad Sandy is not that person and never will be. He appreciates his presence too.
Red son:
He doesn't wanna admit it but pretty sure he's part of them too! When first met in S3 Li gets super suspicious of him too. Especially after hearing about what he did in the past with the others he quickly becomes protective and alert of his friends safety. Soldier instinct he has. He didn't really like him at first and was neutral about him until in the special episode: embrace your destiny, he sees him as ally once seeing how much he helped. Especially Mei since Li gets super anxious and even more protective once he saw Mei struggling with the fire of Samadhi.
2. Note: As for everyone else he was able to meet throughout the adventures with MK and the others, he'd stay natural and takes time to warm up to anyone that is seen as ally, and he will be protective and shielding against the enemies.
Shen Xiaotian:
Let's say that his relationship with MK and the others is a mix of hatred and adoration. He pities MK but at the same time he can't help but feel pleasure when watching him suffer because he thinks he deserves it. Shen sees him as a corny hero but at the same time Shen wishes he was that type. For the rest he isn't very impressed by them but more annoyed. Especially with Li because for some reason Li caught his attention shortly. There is not much to say about Shen and his relationship with Mk and the others since he freshly appears in season 4.
As for Monkey King, he's a different case. Shen first met him when he caught him stealing peaches of immortality. Back then Shen was a passionate celestial warrior so he'd definitely try to catch that monkey. For sure he failed. He was a nuisance to him and still is. Yet he does adores the way of his rebellious acts. But Shen is even more unhinged than Monkey King so when he finds out how "weak" be became he instantly gets disgusted by him.
Phew! That was a lot to write! Took me almost an hour! Excuse my spelling mistakes, I am quite fast in typing and english is not my first language! :'D. But yeah, let me know if something is unclear I try to explain it more!

DRA fancasting
I was heavily inspired by @creepercraftguy's headcanons on voices for the Danganronpa Another cast so I caved and did my own as well. I have decided to use VAs that weren't in any of the official Danganronpa games and anime while also considering the other roles the voice actors are known for as well as their overall energy.
That being said, this was made in all good fun if it and its' sequel (which I'll post tomorrow hopefully) were official games. I hope you enjoy the picks as I did.
Yuki Maeda - Zach Aguilar Notable Roles: - Tanjiro Kamado (Kimetsu no Yaiba) - Koichi Hirose (JJBA: Diamond is Unbreakable) - Genos (One-Punch Man) *Also for a note, Utsuro himself will share the same VA as Yuki, though the voice would have some distinction.
Akane Taira - Lisa Reimold Notable Roles: - Ui Tamaki (Madoka Magica: Magia Record) - Emma Verde (Love Live! Nijigasaki High School Idol Club) - Kurumi (Lycoris Recoil)
Kiyoka Maki - Amber Lee Connors Notable Roles: - Shouko Komi (Komi-san) - Pieck Finger (Attack on Titan) - Furina/Focalors (Genshin Impact)
Mitsuhiro “Mitch” Higa -Jonah Scott Notable Roles: - Kojiro Nanjo (SK8 the Infinity) - Legoshi (Beastars) - Tatsu (Way of the House Husband)
Kizuna Tomori - Sarah Anne Williams Notable Roles: - Sayaka Miki (Madoka Magica) - Nonon Jakuzure (Kill la Kill) - Peacock (Skullgirls)
Ayame Hatano - Ryan Bartley Notable Roles: - Komugi (Hunter x Hunter) - Shoko Ieiri (Jujutsu Kaisen) - Ram (Re:ZERO)
Kakeru Yamaguchi - Alejandro Saab (CyYu) Notable Roles: - Gabimaru the Hollow (Hell's Paradise) - Tatsuya Shiba (The Honor at Magic High School) - Izumi Miyamura (Horimiya)
Kanata Inori - Brianna Knickerbocker Notable Roles: - Hu Tao (Genshin Impact) - Kanao Tsuyuri (Kimetsu no Yaiba) - Filo (Rise of Shield Hero)
Kinji Uehara - Daman Mills Notable Roles: - Lyney (Genshin Impact) - Blade (Honkai Star Rail) - Legato Bluesummers (Trigun Stampede)
Haruhiko "Haru" Kobayashikawa - Aleks Le Notable Roles: - Sonon Kusakabe (Final Fantasy 7 Remake) - Luke (Street Fighter 6) - Caiman (Dohedoro)
Satsuki Iranami - Jenny Yokobori Notable Roles: - Yoimiya (Genshin Impact) - Xiaomei (EDENS ZERO) - Martina Electro (Rain Code)
Yamato Kisaragi - Landon McDonald Notable Roles: - Kazuki Kurusu (Buddy Daddies) - Ranpo Edogawa (Bungou Stray Dogs; S3 - Onwards) - Noritoshi Kamo (Jujutsu Kaisen)

Here’s my take on a batch of custom Nexo Knights minifigs !
Closeups and thoughts under the cut
So, in no particular order, the closeups, with comments and comparisons with the actual characters from the original Lego theme (also, because of Tumblr’s image limits, I had to badly stitch together my pictures, sorry-)
1) Mace
Pretty cool one, and the only girl in the team in the original cast, who also happen to have troubles because her dad is the king. But eh, none of that here, so she get the cool cloak I assign to any cool red character I can find (yes, you’ll see it again many times in the future). The overall design is pretty nice (mostly this face, the other one on the brick is not as good; the printed armor, which is from season 4, is pretty nice, and does a nice job with the large dark piece (coming from later Hero Factory sets). The weapons are from the Chima theme (and so is the cloak !). The hairs are from the only Tron set, which should have been continued as whole theme but eh-
2) Axel
Stupid and muscular originally. Well, now he’s got a Large Axe (Bionicle) to stand to his name. The helmet is all Nexo, but with some custom brew of mine, and so is the shield. Also, the custom arm was possible because the large chest has a technic pin.
3) Clay(more)
Not room much modifications on the base character (s1). The sword is from a season four version of the character, the shield is homemade with some fun pieces I had lying around. The two arms are modified from the Ultimate set. …which I transformed in guns…Yeah.
4) Aaron
Green ! Always had a cooler weapon. The armor is from the mech set, the chest piece is from s3-4, the Google’s are from the Ultimate set, and the shoulder thingy is from Boba Fett. I kept the original shield with some added pieces, which is made to fly (like with the original al character) but changed the face to give him a more serious expression. The weapon is mostly from the original crossbow, with some nice twists (the beam on the first image is from a ninjago sword).
5) Lance Whatever their name is now

Really a bad character : rich, 'very pretty', egocentric. So, well…I took the armor and made an entire new one. I really like them, but it might be because it took an awful lot of time to figure out the weapon (transparent white piece similar to the green beam mentioned above). Armor-wise, it’s s1 body, with a grey pauldron (Clone Wars) and a light grey kama (…Also Clone Wars). The hairs are a really cool piece from a Ninjago set, and the head…Come from a City ski set. But the orange visor makes it work !
6) Never remembered the name of that one
Original character is a very smart kid with not much development in the show. Well, firstly I made him an adult (legs are from a black widow figure), and then I decided to push the technical side a little. So, full suit with crystal swords, which works ! Most pieces are actually from the theme, except the red dots (Ninjago again), the crystals in the back (Power Mine [really a cool theme !]), and the helmet (City firefighters + Ninjago…again). It was the first one I made, which made me do the others.
I might get them in a diorama at some point, to set them against the very many custom monsters from the same theme (which were already much cooler than the original minifigs). In fact, most of the theme was really cool, the two sad points are that it was discontinued, and the TV show was…Well, it didn’t push much sci-fi nor fantasy, so I had to do the job.
Now, with that post I have finally revealed my three favorites things to do with legos : Dioramas, Big Mechs, and Custom minifigures (plus any Clone Wars related stuff, but it’s probably just as much because of the fandom aspect as it is the Lego aspect). One day perhaps, I’ll get all three of these aspects in one epic scene, but I have no idea of how for now, so maybe later~
