The Regency Revolution

By Robert Morrison

(No quotes for this one, mainly because the most striking quotes are ones he’s quoted from others)

A very interesting book giving a broad-but-detailed overview of a range of topics relating to the Regency period. While his book is separated into very broad aspects of the Regency, Morrison puts enough small details in to fill in the blanks and provide a decent background of important topics of the time. Personally, I’ve used it as an introduction to that time period, and have picked out people, events, and topics of interest within each of the chapters. The Regency Revolution is well written, well researched, and never boring. It’s a wonderful overview of the early 1800’s and how they have impacted societal development since. 

I’ve got so many sticky notes sticking out of this poor book tagging topics that I want to look into further – from the Quaker woman who revolutionized the female prison system, to the cases against homosexuality and lesbianism; the background, contents and impacts of various pieces of literature from Shelley (x2) and Byron to Belzoni and Morrison; the development of Regency Park… this book is just a perfect introduction to the revolutionaries of the Regency, and leaves you wanting to know so much more. 

If you want to know some of the more interesting side of nineteenth century Britain, I’d definitely give this book a go

Blood Blossom Au: Baby's First Commissioner Meeting :)

TL:DR This Post: Danny (orphan) gets poisoned with blood blossom extract by Vlad. He runs away from him and ends up under the care of one Pre-Robin Battinson Batman! Starry is loudly pushing her batdad agenda.

(Also known as "Late At Night, When The Nightingale Sings" on my ao3!)

This was a fun rough idea I've been sitting on for weeks, thinking about how Commissioner Gordon and Nightingale's first meeting might go.

---------------

Commissioner Gordon likes to think that he's adjusting to the new normal of Gotham very well, -- the new normal being grown men running around dressed like bats, in military-grade strength body armor, committing acts of vigilantism, -- and slowly, little by little, he was no longer being surprised when this new normal pops up out of the shadows like the world's most terrifying daisy. His shaving lifespan thanks him for it.

....

The kid is a surprise though.

Granted, he seemed to be a surprise to the Bat too.

There's been a string of murders lately, -- which, in Gotham, is kind of like saying there's been another storm during monsoon season. And there's just been another; in some dilapidated building down in south Gotham, with the broken, boarded-up windows and mildew-crawling walls to match. The victim is a man in his thirties, multiple gunshot wounds to the chest, left in the center of the room for the blood to pool out around him.

The place is already secured when he arrives, the building swarmed with officers and the forensic detectives. The Bat emerges shortly after he does -- or, he might've been here the whole time, hiding someplace dark and shadowy. For his own sanity, Gordon doesn't think about it too hard.

The kid is a surprise, and he appears like a bolt of lightning.

He shows up in the middle of a conversation Gordon is having with the Bat.

A whistle, sharp and loud, slicing through the air, meant for open air rather than a confined space. Gordon's ears pierce and protest the sound, and the solemn, murmured chatter floating through the room abruptly cuts off like the swing of a gavel. As he turns towards the sound -- as they all do -- he swears, up and down, that he sees Batman's shoulders jump, just slightly.

At the source, perched on the window, is a boy. A boy in a gray-blue scarf and an oversized black hoodie, one that hangs off his frame and has ace bandages wrapped around the wrists in some attempt to cinch the sleeves. The hood is up, big like the rest of it, and threatens to swallow the upper half of the boy's face whole in the fabric. What upper half Gordon can see, is smeared with some kind of opaque, black face paint. He's holding onto the side of the frame with one hand, on his hip is a grappling hook. A familiar grappling hook.

Gordon has multiple questions, and his officers tense up.

Martinez puffs up, brows furrowing as his face shapes into a frown. Shoulders rolling back. "You can't be here, kid--"

The reaction is immediate, like a spark to gunpowder, the boy yanks his fingers from his mouth and his mouth twists into a scowl. Head snapping over to Officer Martinez, his hood manages to stay on but Gordon swears that as he bares his teeth, the glint makes them look sharper than they should be. His voice is rasp and quiet and harsh; snappish in its hissing; "Put a fuckin sock in it, Martinez. I'm not stayin."

Martinez reels back, and the boy immediately veers his attention off him. Like a switch, his demeanor drops. Despite half his face being covered, his mouth twists into a cringing, apologetic smile. Slanted and off-beat, embarrassed. It'd be disarming if this wasn't Gotham, and if he didn't just hiss at Martinez like he was about to bite his head off.

"Sorry." He whispers, voice deceptively polite and softer now. Gordon has to strain his ears to hear him. "I was looking for him."

He points his finger towards-- Gordon? No, Gordon follows the direction, and finds himself looking at -- the Bat.

The Bat, who always looks stiff as a pole, now looks even stiffer. Somehow. Well, the explains the grappling hook attached to the boy's waist.

"What are you doing here?" The Bat says, gruff and unable to completely smother the stumble of surprise in his tone.

The boy still holds a sheepish smile, and slips off the window ledge. His feet hit the creaky boards with a near-silent thud, the Batman finds his feet and rapidly begins crossing the room.

Gordon notes the slight tremble in the boy's legs as he straightens. He adjusts his scarf, which droops close to his knees now that he's standing, and slings a backpack -- how long has had that? -- off his shoulders. When the Bat reaches his side, he does as he always does, and looms over the boy like a spectre. A threatening mass of shadows cloaked in all-consuming black. Standing next to him, the boy looks teeny in comparison.

The Bat is a man who terrifies even the most hardened criminals, Gordon has seen grown men shiver in fear at the mention of his name. And yet when the boy looks up at him, he doesn't even flinch.

Instead, his sheepish smile melts away like ice under the sun, holding only traces of his previous embarrassment. It remains as a shadow on his face, a small upturn at the corners of his mouth. The boy pushes his hood back just enough to reveal glinting, ice-flint eyes surrounded in tar-black face paint. He holds the backpack up with one arm. "You forgot this."

What a season am i right (only 3 episodes in)

[cosmo-craftin]

The triangle has taken over my brain and demanded I make a 4 layer art piece :,)

layered together and rearranged

I was really inspired by the idea of bill fresh out of his home dimension and filled with wonder of the universe’s beauty but still so hurt from past.

It’s bittersweet and won’t last long hence the eyes, clock and compass symbols.

I used little color as he often makes color disappear around him. Used blue as it is the color of his power and like how it pops against his colors.

THREE MY LOVE

id: page 26 of system collapse, covered in pink sticky notes with ink drawings of three. It’s drawn in an environmental suit with buzzed hair, a round face, almond eyes, short nose, and a scar across its nose.

The drawings show it awkwardly sitting with Karime and the colonists, looking into the distance with a distressed look, and holding a cup of Hot Drink, very unsure of what to do with it.

There’s also a closeup of its face trying so hard to look like a polite human person. Text around it reads “doing a very very good job” and “SO human!”

The second picture is the same drawing as the close-up, but rendered in a digital art program. Three has warm medium brown skin, brown hair, and a blue line in their hair, curving to follow their skull. The background is pink with pink hearts

Hottest Stand Battle - Second Round Match 9

Stand abilities under the cut:

Sticky Fingers: It possesses a very versatile ability in the form of its zippers. The zippers have various applications, such as using them to travel through walls or floors, detaching and attaching limbs, and storing objects inside something. Bucciarati is also free to attach several things together with his zippers.

Wonder of U: Wonder of U is able to take on a human form, which unlike most Stands, can be seen by non-Stand users. Wonder of U is able to create multiple visions of itself, which can be designated to specific targets.

Wonder of U's primary ability allows it to manipulate a "natural law of calamity", which is a form of negative energy independent from the Stand. While its ability is active, targets will experience horrible developments referred to as calamities, which always manifest themselves as some form of harmful collision. Objects that come in-contact with Wonder of U can be infused with calamity and trigger the ability when touched.
