Wednesday November 21st wrote 2311 words for a new short story project I'm calling Mnemosyne, but for tagging purposes I'll be calling it "Memory". It's not a terribly original idea, I must confess. It's inspired by The Notebook (a movie which, yes, does make me cry) but they differ in many ways. The only real similarity is "old woman with Alzheimer's in a nursing home is visited by another old person and they chat and become friends and then old woman remembers this other old person is her spouse and it's very emotional".

This is just a short story so it won't do the whole "recount their lives together" thing that the titular notebook does. It is grounded solely in the present, and really works on the relationship development between the two characters as they are now. That's very important. It's not a frame story. It really does just focus on these two old women getting to know each other, and how things change once one of them realizes that their relationship is completely different from what she originally thought. The ending is also quite different. It was going to follow something similar to The Notebook where the old woman passes away after remembering her wife, in a sort of "I got to see you one last time" way, but that's too sad for what I wanted this story to be. So instead she forgets again, and then it just jumps right back to the beginning and the cycle starts again. Because they can't be apart from each other. Yes yes, very sappy.

The idea really just hit me like a truck today, and I have no idea why. I think I needed something new to refresh my mind. I've been working on Thorns non-stop for almost two months, and I'm a little burnt out. Need to think about something else for a little bit to give my brain a break. This short story is perfect for that.

My brain is spinning… Lately people constantly have my brain spinning in millions of different directions… I miss the days when my mind just rested, those days when the only things that turned my brain were things that were exceptionally thought-provoking, deep intellectual conversation, or an amazing spiritual experience. Yeah… Those were the days. If by any chance anyone can relate, please like this post or at least reply. Please let me know that I am not the only one whose brain is constantly spinning anymore. A little bit of solidarity would do me a lot of good. 😊  I'm speaking to those people who see a post like this and have absolutely no idea how to respond.



Additional note: I think some of the most brilliant minds in the field of psychology would all agree that ultimately, no matter how much time and thought has gone into studying this craft, it is hardly ever possible to understand why people do the things they do. Yes, I think when that realization has been reached, you truly understand as much about psychology as you ever can.

Anyway, thinking about how Bruce’s mom tendencies bleed over around the League.

He pulls out a Barbie pink scrunchie from his endless utility belt.

Oliver is very sure he’s seen it in Spoiler’s blonde mane before. He wordlessly secures Diana’s hair in a ponytail before she jumps into battle.

Barry skins his knee while running, which, considering, is pretty severe. Definitely not the kind of wound you can treat with Gray Ghost bandages.

“I’m NEVER taking this off.”

“Okay, gross?”

“Shut up, Hal, you don’t even wash your suit, you just make a new one every time!”

“I’m allergic to laundry detergent, everybody knows that, BARRY.”

Bruce does not tolerate their fighting for more than 15 minutes at a time. “I will count to 3.”

Hal is quite literally flabbergasted when, after a particularly rough mission, Batman walks over to him and gently places a plate of fruits before him.

“Hal,” in that rain soft voice. “Fruit.”

“…Thanks?”

He just walks off. Like it’s nothing.

“…Did he just do something nice for me? Everybody saw that, right? You’re all witnesses. “

Everyone’s equal parts shocked and equal parts losing their shit. Clark’s eyes are just slightly red.

“I need to take a nap.”

I don't know how strictly accurate this is, but one of the things I find shocking about watching historical dramas is how many people there are around all the time---according to Madame de... (1953) a well-off French household in the Belle Epoque maintains a workforce of at least 3, and the glittering opera has staff just to open doors. According to Shogun (2024) you can expect a deep bench just to mind your household, and again, people who exist to open doors.

Could people....not open doors in the past? Were doors tricky, before the standardization of hinges? Because otherwise, the wealthy used to pay a whole bunch of people to do it for them in multiple contexts, and I find myself baffled.

Columbo and the Knight (1984)

put me in the universe where Columbo ran through the 1980s and had a crossover episode with Knight Rider. I think they deserved it, and I am not just saying that because they're my two favorite Old Shows. @telebeast wrote a little fanfic blurb about it and I HAD to visualize it into a comic (which is also the longest comic I have finished thus far at five pages...), so writing credit goes to them.

Autism W!

FUNNIEST fucking shit that comes with making Danny eleven years old when he had his accident in "late at night, when the nightingale sings" is the implication following, that everything that happened in the show did too. And I fully intend on (mostly) keeping it like that. There'll be some changes (of which I need to figure out) but for the most part??? Yeah relatively the same.

Like I FULLY intend on keeping Dark Danny occurring 6 months post accident. Do you know how fucking HILARIOUS that is??? That Dan got his ass kicked by a goddamn FIFTH-SIXTH GRADER?? I'd never show my face ever again. Homeboy spent the last ten years being a one-man mass extinction event, only to get his ass beat by a kid who hasn't even lost his last baby tooth. That's hysterical. I'm losing my mind just thinking about it.

AND PARIAH DARK TOO. Imagine being an eons old tyrant capable of dragging whole towns down into your dimension, and you get singehandedly shoved back into your coffin in less than 48 hours by a kid whose bedtime is still 8:30. You didn't even have the time to expand your army! You were still trying to take over the city the kid came from!

And he just!!! Shoves you back in!! Insane! This kid hasn't even been dead for a full year yet! He's still growing in his ghost fangs! And he just knocked you flat on your ass in an oversized mech suit. What the fuck! It's like looking down and seeing a four week old kitten meowing very indignantly at you and trying to bite your feet, except that kitten is also actually a black-footed cat and they have a 60% kill success rate, and oops! Now you're dead. You took too long laughing at the kitten trying to attack you that it clawed up your pant leg and ripped out your throat.

COULD I, realistically, span these episodes out over the course of 2.5 years prior to Danny's family dying?? Yes I could! Do I think it's hilarious (and horribly traumatizing, which makes it twice as fun) to shove all of this into the span of (roughly) a year instead?? Yes. Because the show has such a skewed timeline that I've always just assumed that at the end of the show, Danny was starting his sophomore year in high school. So fuck it, lets go for it!

"The dead one! Yeah I haven't thought about her in a long time!"

A little theory I've had about Winter King's original motives based on his heartless comment about Betty and Ice King's original motives for kidnapping princesses in the first place...... clearly she gave off Bad Ex Vibes…
