Now that law is over, some of my favourite "my law teacher knows I'm an author and know random trivia facts" moments:
T: Chuuya, what do you think of when you read "occasioning"?
Me, not prepared for the game of word association I play when writing because I am not currently doing so: Uhh. Occasion.
T:
Me, brain doing the slowest word association it's ever done:.... Events... A wedding.
-
Me: The language of the Offences Against the Person Act must be updated post haste.
T:
Me: Or forthwith.
T:
T: Are you doing that on purpose?
Me: Would the examiner find it funny?
T: Potentially.
Me: Then yes.
-
(After we go to break) T: Are you actually going to say that in your exam?
Me: Should I not?
T: I think you should go for it. If you said no, I would have told you to do it.
-
T: A good thing I don't see mentioned much when talking about the language is "actual". What synonyms do you all think of for actual?
T: Lyney?
Me, actually prepared this time: Tangible.
Class:
Me: Or real works too.
T: Can anyone think of a better word that would work in place of actual?
Me: Acute. That way they can keep the acronym.
-
K: What's a listed building?
T: It's -
Me: I know!
Me: Sorry.
T: Alright, Chuuya. You can explain what a listed building is.
Me: A listing is a restriction on what you can and can't do to a building, there's different grades with different restrictions. Typically, it's stuff like you can't change the exterior, or interior, or you have to get permission before doing so. Town or guild halls are usually listed and you can't change the exterior -
K: What's a guild hall?
Me: Where farmers and tradesmen used to trade when markets were the primary source of everything. You can't change the exterior but can change the interior with permission which is why town halls always become art galleries. Something like York Minster is the highest listing and you can't change anything which is why there's a masonry on site so they can constantly repair and restore the building without risk of changing the design.
K: What's York Minster?
Me: It's... It's the biggest gothic.. cathedral in.. the country. I don't - I don't know what I'm supposed to...
T: K, at some point you have to look at the country's history yourself and stop relying on your classmates. Lyney, thank you for your explanation, does everyone understand what a listed building is now?
-
T, reading a nuisance scenario: Chris owns a bird of prey centre.
Me: What species?
T:
Me: Some hawks, eagles, and falcons require registration to be owned, so if he's not got them registered, it would be breaking the law and could be considered a malicious act.
J: Who would go into their exam and know that?
Me: You want to be a barrister and you keep talking about that friend who's a lawyer. The registration requirement is from an act, so at some point I imagine it'll be relevant to a lawyer.
J: But why do you care?
T: It is actually a good point, because it could be relevant to the question, but let's see if it mentions the bird later in the scenario.
(Later in the scenario) T: Kevin attacked Amy's dog Steve. Kevin is a peregrine falcon. Kevin is not registered.
Me: *smug smile at J*
J: Why do they expect us to know that's necessary?
Me: Well, I imagine if it didn't matter, they wouldn't bother telling us. Also, it wouldn't attack a dog unless something had happened so it sounds more like Steve attacked Kevin first.
J: What is with you?
Me: If you'd prefer, I can not tell you anything and get a better answer than you because I know more.

Are there any Lakota feminists you admire?
It's a little hard to compile a list of Lakota feminists specifically. While there are some, there aren't enough, and I'd like to broaden my answer to cover more than just Lakota women fighting for feminism for Indigenous women all over the world. I hope that's okay.
These are women I encourage anyone to look up and check out their work, we all come from different backgrounds so I might not agree with/have experienced everything shared by them but I think every Indigenous woman's voice is important!
Jihan Gearon - Navajo, feminist and artist
Tarcila Rivera Zea - Quechuan, feminist activist, founder of multiple organizations for Indigenous women
Debora Barros Fince - Waayu, activist and human rights defender and lawyer in Colombia
Rauna Kuokkanen - Sami, professor and Indigenous feminist activist
Aileen Moreton-Robinson - Goenpul, Indigenous feminist and author, Australia's first Indigenous Distinguished Professor
Sarah Eagle Heart - Lakota, author and co-founder of Return to the Heart Foundation
Madonna Thunder Hawk - Lakota, civil rights activist and co-founder of Women of All Red Nations
Mandeí Juma - Chief of the Juma
Ávelin Kambiwá - Kambiwá, specialist in public policies on gender/race, feminist in Brazil
Jodi Voice Yellowfish - Creek, Lakota, and Cherokee, founder and chair of the MMIW Texas Rematriate organization
Wilma Mankiller - Cherokee, first female principal chief of her nation
Annie Mae Aquash - Mi'kmaq, member of AIM, deserves justice for her murder
Jolie Varela - Paiute, led a hike with indigenous women across their cultural land as an expression of sovereignty, founder of Indigenous Women Hike
Lee Maracle - Stó꞉lō, feminist author
Tillie Black Bear - Lakota, activist for domestic violence towards Indigenous women
Other Indigenous women I look up to/admire, not necessarily feminist specific:
The Bearhead Sisters - Sister trio singing group, Wilhnemme
Acosia Red Elk - Umatilla, jingle dancer
Deb Haaland - Laguna Pueblo, Interior Secretary for the USA
Amelia Marchand - Colville, warrior against climate change
Lydia Jennings - Pascua Yaqui and Huichol, warrior against climate change
Roberta Tuurraq Glenn-Borade - Iñupiaq, warrior against climate change
Robin Wall Kimmerer - Potwatomi, fantastic author, please read her book Braiding Sweetgrass if you haven't already
Fawn Wood - Cree and Salish musician
Moving Robe Woman - Lakota warrior, fought against Custer in the Battle of Little Big Horn to avenge her murdered brother
Buffalo Calf Road Woman - Cheyenne warrior who was the one to knock General Custer off his horse during the Battle of Little Big Horn
Bernie LaSarte - Coeur d'Alene, program manager for the STOP Violence Program
Mary Jane Miles - Nez Perce, tribal vice chairman
Crystalyne Curley - Navajo, first woman to become Speaker of the Navajo Nation Council
Article about multiple Indigenous women in Mexico who run Indigenous women's centers
Lily Gladstone - Blackfeet and Nez Perce actress
Rebecca Thomas - Mi'kmaw poet and activist
Sacheen Littlefeather - Apache and Yaquim actress. Keeler is a horrible person and not worthy of listening to whatsoever, Sacheen Littlefeather did more activism for Indian Country than Keeler will ever accomplish in her miserable life
Brianna Theobald - Not Indigenous to my knowledge (I could definitely be wrong), but researched and wrote a wonderful book about the treatment of Indigenous women in regards to reproduction and sterilization
Tumblr media
The brave woman at Standing Rock photographed by Ryan Vizzions. She has since passed away due to a car accident I believe, but I'm struggling to find her name. Once I find it, I'll update this post.
Honor the Grandmothers is a good book to hear Lakota and Dakota women elders share their experiences.

When two heart collide Part 9
Master list
Your lawyer told you they didn't find Arthur, but he has left a trail. It wouldn't be long till they find him. You felt like you could relax a little bit, though you had decided to stay at Johnny's for a few days more. That was until Sam convinced you to come back to the LaRusso's place. It did have a few more creature comforts than Johnny's.
At last the All Valley Tornament was starting. You watched from the crowd as the dojos filtered onto the arena. Cobra kai were abnocious as ever in their black and yellow Gis, then Eagle fang came put in their bright red ones. You had to admit they were pretty cool. Myagi-do came out in classic white and you laughed to yourself, nothing changes with Daniel LaRusso. Hawk was with them, you looked at him and sighed sadly. He had stopped texting you, and hardly replied on the group chat. You admitted only to yourself that you missed him, yet he had hurt your feelings. He looked up into the crowd stopping when he saw Moon, a girl from school and his ex. He smiled at her and winked. You felt your heart hurt. You sat quietly during the first set of rounds watching as the teams progressed through the day. Finally it was the match between Eli and Kyler. You could see when Kyler walked past with his team, they definitely said something bad as it was clear by Eli's face. You wondered if you should go down and see him but someone else got there first. Moon walked up to him, they spoke for a moment and then she kissed him. Your heart broke. You watched as Eli transformed in to Hawk, all his confidence coming back to him. You couldn't do it any more so you got up and made your way back through the crowd leaving the tournament building.
Inside nobody noticed you leave. Hawk won his match, in fact he won the boys championship.
No one noticed as you walked outside into the slowly darkening evening.
Nobody would notice your bike still in the parking lot.
No one noticed the man following you.
No one saw you being bundled into the back of a van.
No one came to save you.
The last voice you heard before blacking out was Arthur's, growling in your ear.
Sorry this is a short one.
Part 10
I have this completed in my drafts would people like to drop them all in one day? Let me know.

Ace Attorney Daemons - Prosecutors
Animal species and reasoning behind each choice under the cut, as well as links to other groups of characters!
Miles Edgeworth - Great Pyrenees. I originally started looking at big white dogs because I wanted to see if something similar to Pess would be suitable, and I think I found one. This breed is big and fluffy, which frankly I think would be needed for Miles growing up with the von Karmas. But honestly, his daemon is intelligent and powerful. Generally calm, but capable of leaping into swift action. However, it is at the same time at heart a protector (of livestock, traditionally) more than a predator. I think his daemon settling in this form when he is a teen would be a great way to illustrate his true nature, underneath all the Demon Prosecutor stuff (I expect he and she would be at odds for a while). Additional details I like are that these guys do tend to be more reserved with strangers and can be somewhat stubborn, and also they do shed a fair bit. I just enjoy the image of Miles having to constantly brush his gigantic floofball of a daemon and lintroller all her fur off his suits. A final thing, which I didn’t really intentionally plan, is that all prosecutors have bird daemons except Godot, who used to be a defense attorney, and Miles. So he stands out a little bit there, which I think works well too - he would be all the more determined to prove himself as Bratworth once his daemon settled in a form atypical for the profession.
Franziska von Karma - Harpy eagle. I put Manfred in the villains list since there’s no space for more prosecutors here, but it just seemed fitting to me that von Karmas typically settle as eagles. They are sharp-eyed predators, generally solitary, and look incredibly fierce, just in general. As for the harpy eagle in particular - they are huge, first of all; their claws are the same length as brown bears’. They are among the largest eagles in the world, and sometimes considered the most powerful. This seems only right for Franziska. They mostly eat monkeys, but can go after pretty much anything as they are at the top of their food chain. They can fly nearly straight up and turn their head upside down, and wait nearly a full day to snatch their prey. Franziska too is maneuverable and ridiculously determined. The head-feathers you can see slightly lifted in the photo are pretty cool, too; they rise up into a distinctive crest when the eagle feels threatened, and it actually looks a bit derpy. Which reminds me somehow of Franziska’s scornful “fool” name-calling and how it can often get to the level of absurdity. They are monogamous and fiercely protective parents, which I think can be a nice match to how Franziska really isn’t so heartless after all. And another detail that fits really nicely with her initial rivalry for Miles is that harpy eagles usually lay two eggs, but typically only the first-hatched survives. The other is ignored or even killed by its older sibling.
Klavier Gavin - Superb lyrebird. Female lyrebirds don’t look nearly as impressive as the males, and they don’t do the dramatic dances either. But they are still incredible vocalists, able to imitate sounds from at least 19 other species. And their songs tend to be mostly used during foraging and defending their nest, as opposed to attracting a mate. Obviously Klavier needs a songbird for his daemon, but I think the female lyrebird specifically is great because of those details. Her less exciting (though still pretty) plumage might not match his outer image, but he is one of the best prosecutors of the series, dedicated to the truth from the very beginning. He’s a lot more serious than he might come across, and his daemon reflects that. The typical songs match up with that too; he loves music and his daemon does too, but it’s not what either of them care about most, and the subject of typical female lyrebird songs show that well. Similarly, though a bird like most prosecutors, his daemon is not a bird of prey. He’s never really been in it for ‘the hunt’, after all. One last reason I like the lyrebird for him is that, contrary to most daemons being quite around people they don’t know well, I suspect his daemon would be fairly vocal and probably sing with him in his band.
Simon Blackquill - Japanese mountain hawk-eagle. Before you ask, yes. Yes I did choose his daemon from birds who look most like Taka. I mean, of course. The wiki listed three, and I looked them all up and thought the mountain hawk-eagle appeared closest. As a bonus, it has a Japanese subspecies, which is fitting for samurai man here. They tend to be quiet most of the time, though they have a distinctive cry. This seems fitting for Simon, as he is generally not super talkative. They hunt their prey from a perch, going after small mammals on the ground or other birds, so the perching on his shoulder all the time doesn’t have to change either. Another fitting detail is that females are extremely defensive of their nests and young, apparently willing to fight to death to protect them instead of getting scared away. They also watch and feed their young for a while after they could be self-sufficient. This fits so well with Simon’s willingness to be put to death to protect Athena, obviously.
Godot/Diego Armando - Asian palm civet. I took a slightly different approach for his daemon, and just googled animals that eat coffee. But I’ll get to that in a minute. First, they are nocturnal, solitary, and can just be hard to locate. This fits well with Godot’s whole ambiguous/mysterious thing he’s got going. They’re good climbers and quite nimble/speedy but still vulnerable to predators. Fitting, I think, since he was caught both as Diego and Godot. He tends to be clever to a point but then make a fatal mistake. They also are pretty adaptable, getting used to urban life quickly, which can relate to him adjusting easily to becoming a prosecutor. However, I would be lying if I said the main reason I like this daemon for him wasn’t because they eat coffee. More than just that, the coffee cherries (of which they are said to select only the best) get fermented in their guts, and when they’ve been pooped out, are used to make a very expensive coffee called “kopi luwak.” Now, granted, when I looked this up it seems that the result doesn’t taste especially good and is pretty much just famous as a novelty thing, but I think Godot’s daemon would enjoy coffee just as much as him, and I find the fact that he could, um, prepare his own if he wanted, hilarious.

OC hours baby!. This is just the tip of the iceberg of toontown oc's i'm making so brace yourselves for more because my mind is just toontown oc ideas 24/7.
Info about them below the cut!
The bloodsucker on the right is named Colon Bloodsport, a chaotic dumbass who likes scheming about greening toons to get a promotion. He tries to act like a villain to toons but is too goofy to be deemed as a threat. He may be a dumb of ass but he does have a terrifying amount of knowledge on things he’s interested in.
The legal Eagle on the left is named Phillip Hawkes, he's a stoic lawyer that is known for his great knowledge in law. He shares a half a brain cell with his bloodsucker boyfriend Colon. He just rolls with his dumb schemes even if he knows that it wouldn't work. His physical appearance resembles that of a Philippine Eagle albeit purple instead of brown.

Klaine fic - “A Vision in a Dream: Chapter 4 - Ramping Up the Possibilities”
Summary: Struggling songwriter Blaine Anderson is trapped in a dull job writing jingles while trying to compose the one song that will help him break into the music business. He's on the verge of giving up when a chance encounter in a local park changes everything ... and nearly gives him a concussion.
Notes: So, yeah, this is the story I wrote for the @klainesummerchallenge 2016. Better late than never. This chapter written for the prompt 'outdoor sporting event'.
Read on AO3.
Blaine skates through the park, gliding leisurely along, the sun setting champagne gold behind him as he contemplates the many conundrums he currently finds himself in. He’d been ecstatic not too long ago talking to Will, full of plans and first steps and bullet points and goals. But now, rolling down the jogging trail through the trees, he feels stuck again – more so than he had before.
And to be honest, he’s getting tired of the frequency in which this happens to him.
When he’d first offered to help Will bring music back to Lima, the man had shot him down, repetitively and sincerely. Will wasn’t looking for Blaine to convince him. As wistful as he was over the prospects of getting the carnival up and running again, the music festival back on, he’d come to terms with losing it a long time ago.
“That’s very generous of you,” he’d said, “but you can’t. It’s impossible. I’ve been trying for years!”
But in contrast, the man’s eyes had shone with so much excitement, so much hope, Blaine continued to insist, swearing up and down that he would do it with or without Will’s help, until the poor, overwhelmed man couldn’t possibly say no.
And he didn’t. Because Blaine had convinced him. Thoroughly. He had faith in Blaine’s conviction.
Hurrah.
With that accomplished, Blaine felt the rest would simply fall into place. It was a done deal in his mind since convincing Will had to be the biggest hurdle to this whole undertaking, right?
Turns out … not exactly.
Actually, not at all.
Because at that point, he hadn’t properly factored Sue Sylvester into the equation. He’d kind of forgotten about her in his zeal to sway Will Schuester, caught up in the moment when he should have taken a few steps back and done his research first, seen if this thing he wanted had any real chance of happening.
Seen why it had been so difficult for Will Schuester when the man had been elbows deep in it for most of his adult life.
There was always the possibility that the woman in question was dead. In that case, dealing with her estate shouldn’t be too difficult. He couldn’t imagine too many lawyers would want to hold on to a dead woman’s grudge for long.
Blaine had had no idea what he was getting himself into.
As soon as Blaine and Will parted ways, Blaine found himself a park bench, pulled out his phone, and started Googling Sue Sylvester. Luckily, information about her wasn’t difficult to find. Articles regarding Sue seemed to fall into two categories – articles written about her by credible journalists, and vanity pieces written by the woman herself. By her own accounts, she was an actress, a model, a TV commentator, and she’d single-handedly put cheerleading on the map.
He couldn’t find any credible sources to back those claims up.
But the non-biased articles he read were damning.
Enough that he seriously considered going straight home, packing his things, and taking the first flight he could to Bali.
The more he researched Sue Sylvester, the more he realized the true extent of Will’s dilemma. Sue wasn’t just a bitter woman with an ax to grind. She was downright vindictive. Slashing tires and filling gas tanks with sugar were the tamest of her many infractions. She’d been known to break into people’s apartments and urinate in their hair products. The high school she’d worked at? She terrorized the children who went there, putting dirt in their lockers and throwing sticks at them for no reason. She forced the girls on her squad to stuff their bras with silicone breast enhancers, then made them pull them out and slap themselves with them when she needed a chuckle. She’d even stolen one poor family’s Christmas tree and presents Seussian Grinch style. How a woman with her track record for petty crimes and child abuse could go on to become a member of Congress …
… actually, that was the only thing about her resume that made any sense.
As far as the carnival was concerned, she hadn’t simply scrapped it, she’d purchased the rights to it – the name, the amphitheater, the land, even the concept. Plus, she didn’t seem to have any weaknesses. That’s not to say that no one had dirt on her – they obviously did. She just didn’t care.
To make matters worse, the woman was still very much alive (evidenced by several recent editorials published in the Lima Gazette regarding defunding PBS because the shows on it could be categorized as ‘hate speech’) so bypassing her and dealing with her estate isn’t an option.
Lawyers can be reasonable. Money and PR can grease a lot of wheels.
Heartless old hags bent on decades of sadistic revenge? Not so much.
If he’s going to get the carnival – and thus, the music festival - up and running again, he’s going to need to convince her.
And this is where Blaine shudders.
Because those articles, and the pictures they paint, have Blaine believing Will is right.
They’ve failed even before they’ve begun.
He loses himself in the run around of that thinking, not even noticing when the sun drops down below the horizon and the street lamps pop on down the trail. Nor does he notice the streak of gold zipping behind him, cutting the course through the trees with a stifled giggle.
It’s long past twilight by the time Blaine reaches the skate ramps at the far end of the park. Though much of the park itself is dim, this end is so flooded with light, it seems like daytime over here. At least a dozen kids are there on skates, boards, and scooters, practicing tricks and showing off for their friends. They congregate mostly at the steeper ramps. Blaine weeds his way through them to reach the flat area his skating instructor told him would be a good place to practice. It’s sunken, accessible by a gentle incline, perfect for beginners, which is probably why it’s empty now, with the more accomplished skaters (every one of them between the ages of eight and fourteen) over on the opposite side.
Blaine steps onto the ramp cautiously. It’s not steep, but he’s sure he could still pick up a decent amount of speed and hurt himself if he’s not too careful. He holds onto the railing as he goes, lowering himself down in sections. But before he reaches the bottom, he’s cut off by a familiar looking man with eyes blue as the sea, and hair that seems to defy gravity, leaving a streak of gold behind him wherever he goes.
Stunned by the man’s sudden appearance, Blaine lets go of the railing. He grabs it again quickly when he rolls a foot down the ramp. “You!”
“Me,” Kurt says, doing a lazy, inside edge spread eagle - a move that, while elegant, also showcases his strong thighs and his tight rear. Blaine does his best not to stare, not just because it would be rude, but because Kurt hasn’t taken his eyes off him, watching him like a hawk with those baby blues that never seem to stop smiling, as if Blaine struggling in rollerblades has become his new favorite form of entertainment.
Even though his cheeks burn from the attention, Blaine braves a bit more speed, managing to get to the bottom and stop without spinning out, flying backwards, and landing on his tailbone … the way he may or may not have done earlier.
“You’re getting better,” Kurt comments. “I’m impressed.”
“Thank you.” Blaine’s voice wobbles, one kind word away from exploding at Kurt’s unexpected praise. “Do you come here often?”
“A-ha. I can practice my skating here.” Kurt transitions smoothly to an outside edge spread eagle, leaning back on his blades, face tilted to the sky, a position which not only shows off his legs again, but something else entirely, and Blaine almost falls without making a single move. “It’s usually pretty empty so no one bothers me.”
“You must live around here,” Blaine proffers, fishing for clues as to where in the world this gorgeous man keeps springing up from.
“Occasionally.”
“Occasionally? What does that mean?”
“It means I’m here today, but who knows about tomorrow.”
“Oh.” Blaine’s heart sinks, thinking that Kurt might disappear tomorrow and he’d never see him again. But as that hasn’t happened yet, he shoves it from his mind. “Why did you kiss me the other day?”
Kurt shrugs. “Because I wanted to. Why? Didn’t you like it?” The next time Blaine sees Kurt’s face, he’s pouting, but not all that convincingly with the smile in his eyes.
“I---I didn’t say that.” A small shock leaps in Blaine’s stomach remembering Kurt’s lips touching his. It doesn’t feel like a simple memory. His lips sizzle as it passes through his brain. “I just … do I know you?”
“I don’t know. Do you?”
“I don’t think I do.” Blaine starts to glide, following Kurt as he meanders around in lazy eights to continue the conversation. “I don’t remember ever meeting you before, and I’m pretty sure I’d remember you.”
“Is that right?”
“That’s right. And that’s another thing - how come we keep meeting like this?”
“Like what?”
“Out of the blue.”
“Just lucky, I guess.”
“It seems like more than just luck to me.”
“You’re right.” Kurt chuckles. “Someone must be setting us up.”
“Who?”
“Don’t you know?” Kurt winks, confusing Blaine until he catches the implication.
“You think … me?”
“Possibly. I mean, you’re always here.”
“True …” Blaine no longer struggles to keep up, skating like a natural since he’s no longer overthinking it “… but I’ve been coming here for ages and I’ve never seen you, so wouldn’t that mean you’re the one setting us up?”
“I guess …” Kurt changes directions, almost colliding into Blaine when he does, frowning playfully when Blaine manages to hop out of the way. “But I think I’d know if I was, so my vote’s still on you. Yup. You’re doing all this.”
“You’re … you’re right.” Blaine follows Kurt as he ventures into an area that’s darker than the rest, shrouded by the shadows thrown by the overhanging lip of the wall blocking the light of the street lamp. He plays along, willing to agree with anything as long as he gets to continue this conversation. “That must mean I want to see you again.”
“Do you?” The farther Kurt goes, the darker their surroundings become, only the brightness of Kurt’s clothes and the glimmer in his eyes visible. “Want to see me again?”
“Yes! Yes, of course. Absolutely. I would love to see you again!”
“Why?”
“I want to get to know you. I find you fascinating.”
“What do I do that fascinates you?”
“Well, for one thing, you don’t stand still long enough for us to have a conversation!” The words fly out of Blaine’s mouth before he has the time to consider whether or not they sound offensive. They do to his ears. And by the way Kurt’s back goes rigid, he can only imagine he thinks so, too. Blaine holds his breath, begging with his brain for Kurt not to skate off in a huff, but he circles back around, eyes pointed thoughtfully toward the sky.
“Hmmm … you may have a point.” Kurt puts one foot behind him, leaning on the edge of his wheels and slowing to a stop. “There. I’ve stopped. Now, what do you want to know?”
“Who are you?” Blaine asks breathlessly.
“I told you. I’m Kurt.”
“Do you have a last name?”
For the first time since they met, the smile in Kurt’s eyes extinguishes slightly. “No. But it wouldn’t make a difference if I did.”
“What do you do?”
“I skate.”
“I mean, for a living?”
“I don’t.”
“What do you mean you don’t?”
“I don’t do anything for a living. The universe pretty much takes care of me. And in turn, I take care of other people.”
“Other people?” Blaine’s brow furrows. “Like who? Are you a nurse or something?”
The amused expression returns full force to Kurt’s face. “Do you need me to fit into some sort of box or something?”
“No. I’m just curious.”
“Can I ask you a question, Blaine?”
“Of course! Anything!”
Kurt leans forward till he’s only a breath away. “Can I kiss you again?”
“Yes!” Blaine answers too quickly, but he can’t take for granted that, for once, Kurt is standing still, has been standing still for a full three minutes so far.
Which makes his chances of getting another kiss good.
“Wow!” Kurt laughs. “You didn’t even have to think about that, did you?”
“No, I didn’t. Because I have been thinking about it. For a while. And anything I can do to make it happen … anything … I will.” Blaine glances at Kurt’s lips, desperate to kiss him, to relive the excitement, the rush from before.
Kurt licks his lips, staring so deeply into Blaine’s eyes, Blaine feels like he’s falling, his feet floating in the air as he dives into the sea that is Kurt’s eyes. But Blaine also sees fire there, traces of that molten light that follows Kurt around everywhere he goes. It swirls and dances, wrapping around Blaine like a lasso and setting him gently back to earth. Kurt pulls back, inching away from Blaine’s untouched lips, and smiles. “That’s good to know,” he whispers. He sidesteps Blaine, and skates away into the shadows.
“Wait!” Blaine shoots out after him, but before he knows it, the world becomes pitch black. Blaine’s eyes scan the dark, hoping against hope that Kurt is hiding somewhere, teasing Blaine some more. But Blaine feels the truth deep within his chest.
He wasn’t fast enough.
Kurt is gone.

“You’re still awake?” ~@chords-of-justice ((hiya!! Hope you don’t mind the poke fjgkgk))
{ @chords-of-justice }
The voice was surprising, but not unfamiliar.
Everyone had already gone home. Klavier didn't expect to run into anyone else for the night, especially not Apollo of all people. He'd been knee deep in evidence way later than he was supposed to be. So admittedly hearing a voice had startled him a bit. Did Apollo even knock, or had Gavin been so desperate to not think about anything that he hadn't noticed? He prided himself in the fact that he had only given a slight flinch at Apollo's query, fingers tensing around the files in his hands. But even that was too much. He knew Apollo would catch on to even the tiniest waver in resolution. 
In that aspect, Apollo reminded him of a hawk. 
Piercing eyes that could spot an uncertain prey a mile away. A predator eager to latch onto the scent of distress. Always ready to intimidate and screech, breaking down it's target until they were just a wriggling worm to scoop up with his talons. 
However, despite his talent for the hunt, Apollo Justice was not a hawk. 
Or an eagle, or falcon, or whatever other animal ready to tear at bloody meat. The only thing Apollo ripped apart was flimsy testimony, and while Klavier was thankful for the lack of jungle setting, his eerie perception was just as scary. 
So Klavier carefully set down his papers, folders with enough trial information and puny names to give him a headache, and sat back in his massage/office chair. He tried to appear as lax as possible. Which, at this point, came easy. His body was too tired to be unnecessarily tense anyway. Days of drowning himself in the distraction of work made sure of that. Even so, just meeting the defense lawyer's gaze was enough to make his tired muscles rethink their loose nature. 
Was Apollo already sizing him up?
It made Klavier wonder if he was truly curious, or if it was just second nature by now. Either way, the analytical look beckoned a lurch in Gavin's stomach. He prayed to any god out there that he didn't look too awful. He'd made sure to tidy himself up as best as possible. Still, hours of work always led to a deteriorating appearance. Sleepless nights led to the threat of bags. Back and forth trips from leads, to the office, to home resulted in disheveled clothes. Unpredictable weather ended in hairs slipping out of place. Subconsciously, he lifted a hand to smooth down some haywire strands. He realized his mistake soon after, a nervous gesture he knew, but tried to play it off with his usual playful tone. 
"I could ask you the same. I never thought you would visit me at such a late hour. Is herr Wright paying you overtime, or did you just miss me?"
Good. That was good. Teasing came as naturally to him as breathing. Maybe that would give him some semblance of normal. Nevertheless, the little voice in the back of his head, the one that sounded suspiciously like Kristoph, asked him who it was that he was really trying to convince. Apollo, or himself? Luckily, there was no need to answer annoying thoughts when you could just shove them back to the farthest place of your mind. 
I'm so tired of thinking. 
Hopefully the teasing was enough to throw Apollo off his scent. It was true enough, wasn't it? After all, they hadn't seen each other in a few days. Rightfully so. After the Misham case, there was a lot to sort out. The disbandment of the Gavineers, the onslaught of work, his bro-
I want to stop thinking. Let's stop thinking. 
He folded his hands onto his stomach, reclining slightly in the out of place chair. The comfort was short lived though, fingers unlacing so he could gesture towards the files on his desk. No sudden movements. No sudden frowns. No sudden twitches in facial muscles. He was former lead vocalist of the Gavinners, and present scourge of the courtroom. But most of all he was suave, and that was the personality he was going to commit to tonight. 
"Or you came for that. Didn't know you were the 'sharing secrets with the hot enemy prosecutor in the dead of night' kind of guy. But you always surprise me in the best of ways, herr forehead"
Smiling was easy. Scientifically, it took less energy to smile than to frown. And he knew he had a good one, years of false grins perfected by stage appearances and clingy press.
He wondered why now though, smiling felt particularly tiring.

❝ Woah! Two things in common, four differences… We both really love cherries! They’re just the absolute best fruit out there. Plants that make sour fruit? Galaxy brain. Or, whatever plants have instead of brains. Secondly, our aesthetics are kinda a whiplash. One second we’ll be coddling a little pink stuffed flamingo calling it cute, next we’ll also probably call something horrifying to most people like Biollante also adorable. ❞
Tumblr media
❝ We definitely have a lot of differences, though. I can play guitar, but Feathers can’t even read sheet music. However, she can sing! She also can focus for a lot longer than I can. I’ve always got this constant itch to gogogogogo, but she can just…. ignore it?????? HOW?????? To get a little more specific, she’s not a hawk. Feathers is an eagle. A “legal eagle” to be specific, but I don’t think that’s an actual species, and she isn’t a lawyer, so I think it might just be a D&D alignment joke. Lastly, she can totally write. Like, she’s good at words. I think I probably traded my ability to write for the ability to do realistic paintings. ❞

The Legend of Indian Mound
On a beautiful, warm August morning in 1898, guests of the newly founded Winona Assembly were seen bustling about, packing up their belongings, cleaning their cottages, looking for children and loading up carriages or preparing for the train trip home. After the last of the summer’s programs, they would finally depart, already anticipating their happy return the following year.
With the most hallowed of services to come, a crowd filed down well-worn paths toward Cherry Creek and crossed the bridge beyond which a sacred hill rose before them. The women gathered their skirts and looked for sure footing. The luckier ones had the advantage of a husband to hold them at the elbow as they climbed to the summit of Indian Mound.
Dust mingled with perspiration. Men drew out their kerchiefs to wipe their damp foreheads. Heavy skirts, high-topped shoes and white long-sleeved blouses caused a number of women to arrive at the meeting spot with cheeks flushed and their fans waving. As often happened, a stirring of the leaves occurred overhead. A familiar breeze from the lake below moved over the gathering. The people stood around expectantly, awaiting the arrival of Dr. J. Wilbur Chapman who was to lead the annual closing consecration ceremony.
Taking off his hat and setting it on a stump, the evangelist wiped the sweat from his brow with the back of his hand. Looking at the assembled worshipers, he welcomed them warmly and cited some of the distance places from which they had traveled to be there. Then, he made his impassioned appeal.
 “Take the blessings received here and live them out in your daily lives in full surrender to Christ and his will!”
Spontaneously, the people fell to their knees and pleaded to God to forgive them, to renew them and to prepare them for lives of total consecration and service to the Gospel. Some of the men stood up and offered long prayers. A few started singing. Soon, the whole assembly took up a string of hymns. Women raised their arms and wept loudly. Gradually, everyone was standing again as Dr. Chapman, hands lifted toward the heavens, gave an emotional benediction to which the people responded with wails, shouts of joy and a chorus of amens.                                            
By the year 1894, Eagle Lake, present day Winona Lake, was home to a very popular legend about a white man, an Indian woman and a picturesque bluff jutting out from the water’s edge. It is a common storyline that could be found after whites settled the lands from which Native Americans had been removed.
In one version of the tale, north-central Indiana was yet a frontier and Indians roamed places like Eagle Lake. One day, a white man came from the east. He was wealthy, tall, dark complexioned, and, of course, quite handsome. His name was John Hamilton, and he had traveled westward to homestead and to hunt and fish.
It was said that a peaceful band of Potawatomi Indians had pitched their traditionally domed-shaped wigwams on the banks of Eagle Lake. Hamilton became friends with the chief and visited the encampment often. By chance, he met the chief’s daughter, and—as any good legend goes—the two fell in love. However, the chief learned of the perfidy committed by his daughter Laughing Water who was promised to the brave warrior Black Hawk and also by the white man whom he had trusted. Feeling insulted and betrayed, the chief forbade the white man to come into his camp again. The two lovers met secretly in a grove at the top of the hill overlooking the lake. There they planned a future together.
One day, the chief followed stealthily as Laughing Water made her way to a clandestine rendezvous. He seized her violently and dragged her back to camp. He set guards around her wigwam to keep her there until her wedding with Black Hawk. Desperate to avoid the forced marriage, Laughing Water managed a clever escape. Safely away from her captors, she climbed into a canoe and paddled to the middle of the lake. She had decided that she would rather die than to live apart from the man she loved. Upon reaching her chosen mark, she plunged into the water.
John Hamilton saw Laughing Water and swam to her canoe. He dove deep, pulled her up to the surface, and swam to shore with her limp body. But it was too late. Heartbroken, Hamilton lived out the rest of his life as a hermit. His dying request was to be buried at the top of the hill, the spot where the lovers had spent so many hours together. According to witnesses, the lovers’ ghosts appeared near the grave from time to time. A few even swore to having seen Hamilton and Laughing Water strolling hand in hand.
According to another version of this tragic romance, Hamilton lived among the tribe at Eagle Lake when he fell in love with the chief’s daughter, Winona. The old warrior found out and forbade his daughter to see the white man. From that time on, the lovers met secretly on the hilltop.
One morning, in the midst of a terrible storm, Winona decided to end her life because she knew her father’s word could not be challenged. She maneuvered her canoe through the turbulent waters. Upon seeing that it was Winona who was struggling against the waves, Hamilton threw himself in to rescue her. The following morning, the body of John Hamilton washed up on the shores of Eagle Lake at the foot of the sacred hill. A marble slab marked his grave upon its summit. The lake remained the resting place of Winona.
As a result of the astounding success of the Winona Assembly which had purchased the Spring Fountain Park resort, word spread and with it the legend of Hamilton and Indian Mound in its various forms. Had the myth started with the first white settlers in the 1830s, or was it a clever marketing device used by the owners of the original summer resort? Perhaps the stories of Hamilton and Indian Mound had grown from the vivid imaginations of visitors to Spring Fountain Park at a time when Indian legends were popular fare. Whatever the source, people sought an explanation for the presence of the white man’s grave on what had been Indian land. They also kept as souvenirs chips taken from the headstone that famously read: In memory of John Hamilton, who departed this life at 10 minutes before 9 O’clock a.m. on Sept 19, 1839, aged 32 years, 9 months and eleven days. Beloved, respected, lamented.
Not surprisingly, but perhaps to the disappointment of many, a relative of John Hamilton came to Winona Lake in 1905 to set the record straight. A series of headlines from regional newspapers sounded the alarm. “Legend Is Robbed of Romantic Glow: Pretty Stories Exploded,” one paper announced. “Winona’s Beautiful Legend Falls Before the True Story of John Hamilton and His Tomb,” another lamented. A third headline made the unassailable declaration that “James Hamilton Shattered Indian Legend of Winona Lake!”
Who was this James Hamilton, and what was the so-called true story behind the viral myth of a “pagan” mound so tightly woven into the history of the now-famous Christian Chautauqua at Winona Lake, Indiana?
The elderly Hamilton traveled from Nelson, Nebraska—perhaps at the behest of the Assembly leaders in Winona, perhaps not—to clarify categorically and emphatically the facts surrounding the death of his cousin, John M. Hamilton. James Hamilton explained that his late cousin, the subject of fantastic tales, had not been the wooer of an Indian woman.
John Hamilton, the son of a Presbyterian minister, was a widower with two young children and the owner of a farm in Ohio. He did travel westward as the legend told but only some 200 miles. Leaving his children temporarily with his parents, he set out for Warsaw, Indiana, where good land was affordable. His intention, the cousin stated, was to open a mill. For that purpose, he purchased land that included Indian Mound. Sadly, he died after a brief illness. The family with whom he had been staying honored his dying wish by burying him at the top of his beloved hill.
With the legend now successfully debunked, it was time to replace it with another tale that maintained the sacredness of the site, albeit with some holy slight of hand.
The year following James Hamilton’s shocking announcement, The Princess of Winona was published. It was a short book containing parallel plots. The first plot line featured a bass called Princess of Winona that escaped from the hatchery. The second storyline told of a budding romance between a Chicago lawyer and a young woman, both visitors to the Winona Assembly.  As the bass grows to a plump four pounds, so grows the love of the couple. One day, the young woman takes her new lover to the Indian Mound and there explains the story of John Hamilton, a man of prayer and of faith who, from the summit of that hill, poured out his heart to God and in doing so consecrated the spot. How prophetic it was, she pointed out, that the Presbyterians wound up buying the land upon which that pioneering Presbyterian had been buried! One morning, the couple decides to go fishing, and with his flashy new lure, the Chicago lawyer snags the Princess of Winona. They take her on a stringer back to the inn with plans to have her for breakfast.
Surely, it will come as no surprise that the attempt at replacing the romantic legend fell short. The Winona Assembly went so far as renaming the holy site “Hamilton Mound” in some printed material, but the new appellation never caught on. What did remain was its historic designation as “Indian Mound” and a universal reverence for the natural landmark at the edge of a peaceful lake over which eagles soared and where dazzling sunsets and glittery night skies had for centuries cast their spell upon all who ventured the climb.
However, this is not the end of the story.
Fifty years after James Hamilton exploded the legend surrounding Indian Mound, workmen began leveling the site to make room for residential lots. The hill had been determined expendable and needed to come down in the name of progress. It was, after all, a massive stash of gravel dumped eons ago by a retreating glacier. That gravel, city leaders argued, was essential to current building projects.
During the process of bulldozing the 40-foot tall hill that was by now thick with trees and brush, workers found bones several feet from the former gravesite of John Hamilton. One of the workmen examined the bones and stated that they were over a hundred years old and likely those of a Potawatomi Indian. Reportedly, Hamilton’s coffin had been surreptitiously moved to a location where it would no longer be disturbed and the original headstone replaced with a marker that read: John Hamilton from Wayne County, OH. Moved to Warsaw 1837.  Died Sept 1839.
                                                 None of us will ever know what it is like to watch the sun dip below the horizon from that singular vista. We cannot picnic, pray or sing from its summit. We will never visit the grave of John Hamilton or honor those of the Native Americans said to have been buried there. All we have are the memories of those who did. The hill that became a resting place for the dead, an inspiration for a legend, and the site of hallowed gatherings is long gone, but perhaps not completely. To this very day, some lake residents tell of a strange phenomenon. On certain nights when the moon is full, they say they can see the outline of Indian Mound where it once stood and two figures holding hands walking along its crest.

In the annals of OC history, there are many losers. Ones that stick with you because of how bad they were or how rediciously overpowered they were. Some are just there because you noticed that they are basically an anthesis to EVERYTHING that the series stood for. And then you have Reisu from Sailor Titan who punched out God and sacrificed the entire world because he wanted to join his evil girlfriend (I wish I was kidding. Linkara was insane when he was 13)
And then you have...Count Logan, aka the incarnation of Beast Boy. But, rather than talk about it with you, let’s let Mykan himself discuss it.
I was hoping it wouldn't come to this as it spoils...
-The story that only 105 people have viewed, 84 have downvoted, and there is a one percent chance that one person hit the wrong button. Oh, and it’s a story that you have told at least 4 times now. Hell, I think you have told this story so much that it is outdoing the Radtiz saga as one of the most overtold things in history!
but as people are ignoring the small parts of it anyway (I may as well do this)
-Or you can wait for it to end and then explain it, but again we know the ending, we know what is going to happen.
And one last thing...
-Let me guess, it’s something that is going to make me want to laugh like a hyena?
TO HELL WITH SO-CALLED "COMMON-SENSE"
-*Laughing like a hyena pup*
(The stuff has hardly any meaning to me in this field) "Common-sense and good judgment won't save you this time... not from me."
-He does know what commen sense is, right? He does realize he basically just said, “You won’t win, because I’m a moron.”
-And now, for the hardest thing I can do on this, look at this image and try not to laugh. But it is so hard right now. I mean, look at it!!!! There is just so much wrong with it, that it isn’t even funny.
Let’s start with the color, wich is practically screaming 90s edge right now. This is all black, wich does not really stand out all that much in the grand scheme of things. Even characters like Darth Vader and Batman have some color in their athestic when they are designed. That’s because, making him pure black like this kind of just screams “Pay attention to me.” Now, a lot of the time, when the hero is meant to go rouge or turn evil, they usually will either invert their colors or wear their old costume as a cape. This is none of those thigns and is just something that makes me think of a kid trying way too hard.
Lastly, the face. Will someone please tell me where he stole it from? Because I know I saw that look before. Maybe it was done during the Titan era of Teen Titans when Dick and the others left the book or it was an unused design choice.
COUNT LOGAN: (formerly known as Beast Boy of the Teen Titans.)
-Formally known as the artist, his purpleness, and Smitty the wonder poodle.
Is an evil and very powerful interdenominational sorcerer, and is initially the primary antagonist of my fanfic,https://www.fimfiction.net/story/390095/friendship-is-failure-10--teen-titans-the-end-of-ends.
- is initially the primary antagonist of the Wii game Super Paper Mario.
Ok, with this and the “Twilight” thing back in the Lighting Dawn Page (Wich I will  get to) I am really starting to think he just grabs words from the wikipedia articles and uses them.
He was reincarnated from Beast Boy to serve as a slave to The Dark Prognosticus
-*Pulls out cell phone* Hello, Nintendo?
(A powerful and evil prophetic spellbook)
-Only Mykan can take something  from Super Mario and try to treat it seriously.
Garfield Mark Logan
-Hmmmm, better on this if this were only about the other four members of Titans. Only one thing to do...Research the hell out of it!!!!!
When he was 5, he got sick after being bitten by a green monkey. His parents saved him using an untested animal serum, which unintentionally mutated him green and gave his animal powers.
-It was a machine not a serum. If you are going to talk about a superhero, get your cannon straight! *Looks up* Oh, we are going animated. Well, as long as we stick to one of them, I should be fine
After that, Garfield's entire life was shaped by nothing but heartbreak, tragedy and misery!
-You know, except for the billions, the mansion, th fans, the love and affection, the...
Shortly after his mutation, Garfield’s parents died in a boating accident during a flood. An accident that still haunts him as he believed he could have prevented and saved his folks.
-Yep, stole this from the Titanstower site.
Then, his foster mother died in a tank explosion
-*looks it up on both the sites* Nope, it was foster father in a temple explosion and, wait a minute...
That’s from the freaking comics!!!!!!!
His legal guardian, Nicholas Galtry, despised the boy,
-Ok, we are going with the comics stories then? But, then this whole world will make even less sense. Because if this Dark Probobcious is as powerful as  you say it is then why isn’t it being watched over by Dr. Fate? Or being burnt into cinders by John Constantine?
Hell, searching for Beast Boy and getting him a new home is now even dumber because this is the DCU, and they love their heroes!
abused him daily and plotted to have him killed so he could get the inheritance money.
Garfield ran away, but was captured by two thieves, whom abused him and forced him to do their bidding.
-Hey, mr. fanboy, you got the order wrong! It’s Temple, Theives, and then  evil attorney.
That’s when the Doom Patrol came along, adopted the boy and trained him, and he because BEAST BOY.
-Well, actually it all depends on the universe. See, if you go by the cartoon, he broke into their hq and they found him worthy to be on the team. However, if you go by the ccomics, he tried to join the titans and doom patrol without telling of his guardian about his double life. However, they rejected him because they needed his guardians permission (Ok, what? So, did Dick set that up or was Roy just teasing?)
Then he was found by the titans when he was mesmerized by a ringleader to be a giant gorrila. Then he began to work with the Doom Patrol and was THen adopted by elasti-girl and steve Dayton after winning a legal battle with the lawyer. Sadly, since Doom Patrol never caught on as well as the X-men, they were cancelled in their 169th issue and were all killed with the exception of Beast Boy.
That was when he went into acting on the show Space Trek 2022 as the alien metamorph tork. However, he was the scrappy of the show and was fired. After traveling with his highschool girlfriend, Jillian (so much for Terra being the one.) he found himself back in the saddle when she was kidnapped by Arsenal (Galtry) After he kicked the bad guy’s ass, he joined Titans west along with Flamebird, Hawk and Dove,  Bumblebee, and two others even I don’t know. Meanwhile his powers continued to evolve until he could only change full into his animal forms
Due to Mento’s harshness,
-He must of hated the way he made fun of his hat.
And you wonder why the X-men are the more popular of the two.
and stubborn strict attitude,
-this was when he met the titans and...oh, is he still continuing? Sorry, comic history can be fascinating sometimes!!!!!
Beast Boy felt alienated from the team and struck out on his own.
-That is copied word-for word from the wikipedia article!!!!!
Everywhere he went he was rejected and treated harshly due to his green skin,
-Pictured, total rejection
Any comic reader know who the yellow winged guy and blue black guy are?
Wait...Ok, the girl is Lillith, the guy is Vox, and the yellow dude is golden eagle.
but eventually came the TEEN TITANS, and all that.
-Ok, I think he just mixed up at least two continuties here. Worst than I do, and I have seen more superhero crap than him.
Here, Beast Boy assumed the role of a comic relief-- telling bad jokes, being mischievous—
-Wich is his character that he loves and tends to make him liked and you are-
but all this is really a mask of laughter-- he uses it to hide the pain and sadness from his life.
-Going to make it sound as depressing as possible and OOC for your story to work.
(Much like supressing the rage, but eventually it will snap)
-Or as a way to relieve stress, but I am not a psych major.
Despite the good times he had with the Titans, there were more bad times than good.
-I have been watching the show and I can tell you right now that this bullcrap!
(Most of which came from Raven’s abuse and rudeness, and her supressing her powers is no excuse)
-Yeah and then you have all of the times she was caring towards him, but go on, I am curioous to see where you are going with this *Puts head on hands)
-They don’t include him
-Don’t include him in what? His games? Cartoon watching? What?!
-they make fun of him
-And he usually fires back.
-They insult him
-Raven smacks him (even when he’s right on Trouble in Tokyo)
-Awwwwwww, poor baby, lets back up the abulance.
-When he has a good idea (an honest one) they don’t listen to him
-Because he’s usually wrong?
Then again, that’s BB’s curse: Any friend or loved one he makes will eventually die or turn on him (It’s always the same)
-Pictured, a person turning on Beast Boy
Worse, people in the city don’t seem to appreciate him much (Preferring the other Titans to him)
-Been through 13 episodes so far and haven't seen a simgle sign of that.
Girls don’t like him, he can’t hang out with cool crowds unless the Titans are with him.
-Yeah, it’s not like he has a fan club or anything.
He’s pretty much an UNSUNG HERO (A person whose heroics go unnoticed and/or unappreciated by others)
-How horrible, he is doing this because its the right thing. Oh my god, this is simply horrifying.
(So as you can see… I already have MORE than enough to make him become Logan with or without THE GIRL)
-All based on lies, misunderstanding, and tricks of the mind.
Then, along came Terra. Finally, someone who liked him just for who he was,
-Unlike that Jillian woman or the other Titans who liked him because of his...
and they had so much in common too…
-Yeah, like she enjoyed his laughter and he thought she was pretty and...and there was...she was....Um...any titans fan care to help out?
it was like they were MADE FOR EACH OTHER, and that fate was finally rewarding BB for all his years of suffering!
-Yeah, by offering him a pretty girl! Who cares about the basic stuff like life completion, friendship, and a life goal to complete it. It’s the girl that is the most important thing in existance.
But then, there was THAT STUFF…
-Like it seems that the only reason why anybody ships them is becausse they are cute.
-Terra thinking he broke his promise about her powers
-Her involvement with Slade
-Her fighting the Titans
-Her turning into stone
-aka the adaptation of Judas Contract that was actually well done!
“You were the best friend… that I ever had!” (Her final words to him before turning to stone)
-And that scene was actually well done. And Beast Boy moved on, strong that he was.
And then, came Things Change.
-BOOOM!!!!!!!
There, had to get at least one head explosion out of me before moving on.
She pretend to have amnesia and was pushing him away because she wanted to forget her past (even all the good times they had) She wants nothing to do with Beast Boy.
-You go girl!!!! Grow up and move on through the pain, we are all rooting for you.
“You’re my friend! You’re a Teen titan!”
“You’re wrong!”
…all so she can live a normal life and forget her past!
-A perfectly reasonable reaction to a horrible trauma like almost DIEING!!!!!
That is cold, cruel, extremely selfish, and very foolish as well,
-Yeah, she’s not catering to YOUR, sorry beast boy’s, needs
but it’s not like she cares that she broke his heart… perhaps irreparably!
-Pictured, an eternal broken heart
(It’s hard to find a pic of Beast boy shipped with anyone but Raven)
He didn’t deserve that, not a bit!! The little guy’s gotta have something in this world to hope for.
-It doesn’t have to be love you know. IT can be friends, family, and the future. Love is just one of the many things you can find.
What’s he got to hope for now? His one and ONLY true love ditched him…
-I know this is odd, considering I am a huge shipper but...I really hate this idea. It basically says that you have no other choice but to have the ONE perfect love in the world. You are going to have multiple loves throughout your life that you will say is perfect until you discover that the best love is the great love. Sometimes you will move on, sometimes you won’t. But there is no such thing as there is only one true love.
(Just like everyone else he ever befriended or loved die)
-You know, except for EVERYPONY ELSE!!!!
(end of BB’s origin)
-As interpited by a guy who has never read a comic before in his life.
THE DARK PROGNOSTICUS
-I do not care if this is from Super Paper Mario or how awesome it is...it still makes me think of noses!!!
After the breakup, things only went from bad to Worse. He was highly disrespected in JC
-Wich is odd, considering that this is the DCU, where they make freaking museums dedicated to their superheroes.
-The newspapers only did columns on the other Titans (Not interested with him)
-PP: Um, Mr. Jamenson, why do you only want me to pick up photos of Robin, Raven, Cyborg, and Starfire.
JJJ: PArker, everyone knows that Beast Boy photos don’t sell!!!!
-There was no BB merchandise in the stores (Just that for the other Titans)
-Man the collector’s market must be a bitch over there. Either that or every store is owned by Matell. Yes, I am still bitter about the lack of Katara figures!
-More and more BB’s favorite hangout places had changed and were not replaced (Leaving him with very little ways to go)
-Ok, now this has gone from bad luck, to conspiracy, to just plain rediciously sad.Surprised that he hasn’t said that Beast Boy’s favorite show was then cancelled, and that Sega announced it’s ending Sonic games.
As if he weren’t miserable enough, Despite the Titans trying to be sympathetic, all they really did was badger him to accept change and “MOVE ON!!”
-How dare they try and get him to get a life. Those horrible people. I can see why I am on their side and not that on the whiner’s
What the hell does HE have to move on too? The other titans have moved on from their problems.
-What? No they haven’t!!!!
-Robin and starfire are dating
-Yeah, I can see how this addresses their own individual character conflicts. It was only their romance that was important.
-cyborg is cool with who he is and people love him
-Yeah, those few scenes are all that’s needed to say that he’s fine with being trapped forever in a metal shell, unable to touch anything and is an inhuman creation.
-Raven beat Trigon, he’s no longer a threat to her.
-So totally makes up for the YEARS of truma she is acculmating.
…and BB is still losing things, as well as confidence in his team (Then again… that’s his curse: They love you, and they turn on you)
-Because you do the following...
And don't you try to tell me The Titans wouldn't do that, because THEY ARE capable of doing so, and to me, they are no exceptions. they either die or turn into jerks (Just like everyone else BB ever encountered)
-Am convinced that if you do one bad thing, that will forever taint you for life. No matter who you are, you can never change yourself for the better.
After many fights with the Titans and having a super falling out, BB quit.
-shame he didn’t stay longer, he missed out on the party they had to celebrate his farewell.
Realizing he can’t stay in JC or with the Titans anymore as they are only ADDING to his pain!
-*Imagines Beast Boy dressed in goth clothing and laughs*
Then again, where would he go?
-Titans west? Bunk with Aqualad who he had built a bond with? You know, those superheroes that you say there is no room for even though you spent time putting in the additions of the Doom patrol for no appearent reason!!!!!
He tried to go to other towns and maybe start over… again he got rejected, booed and judged harshly for his green skin and prejudice people.
-This makes no sense whatseover considering his own fandom and how many people love him.
To top it all off, the nights were cold, creepy
-Oh gee, if only he could become an animal with a lot of fur or a cold-blooded reptile.
and filled with nightmares of his past!
-The one time he ripped Dick’s comics, his nightmare about being turned into a veggie burger, that one nightmare where he is stuck in a musical and he is one of the worst human beings on the planet.
All the people he had lost, all the people he thought were his friends, all the people who wronged and betrayed him!!
-That pizza he had ordered a month ago that was lost. That comic he will never read, and of course, the lost of ms. Snugglebottom
“GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!”
-Roy: *Throws a rock* Quiet out there, I am trying to sleep!!!!
Overtaken by extreme anger, hatred, pain and sadness, Beast Boy went POSITIVELY INSANE!!
-Calm down, no need to get excited
Any bit of light and love in his heart had complete diminished after so much pain and torture!
-Ok that is it!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W7IxliAPjAk
Just replace the rest of the blog with this charactrer!
(Just like any human being who suffered so much for so long. Sometimes they just SNAP.)
-More like is a self entitled boob who wants everyone to kow tow to him and him alone and won’t listen to reason
The Dark Prognosticus could sense this, and Teleported to him from Raven’s room.
-Yonk!!!!!
Only someone with heart filled with extreme hatred and darkness would be able to unleash the powers within.
-Ok, so let me get this straight. With all of the powerful and black hearted villians in this world. Ones that would so easily fill the job of being the dark one that this thing craves, it picks out a lonely and sad little teen who only lost his family and girl? There are probably billions of other people out there who are suffering from the same type of thing Beast Boy is, but this one time he is going to hone in on?!
The book was now fully awake, and IT
-They all float down here gar!
had chosen HIM to be THE ONE to unlock the dark magic with in and fulfill it's dark desires.
-Garflied: Really, me? Not say someone with a whole ton of power or someone who would lead better or someone who has a blacker heart than me?
DP: Yeah, look, you are the only one who would follow orders and not stab me in the back for power.
Whether or not BB wanted to do this or not (Which he didn’t) the choice was not his!
-Why does this feel like a filmaker trying to defend the actions of his character to help with his vision?
The book was choosing HIM, and that was final!
-Yeah there it is, the it was them not my character.
No amount of will or nobility or courage could defy it.
-Can’t fix it because I am the writer and what I say goes. Look this was all cliche when Homer tried it in the Illiad!
The Book shot him dead…
-Oh, bang bang, he shot him down, bang bang that aweful sound.
(That’s how the Doom Patrol found his corpse)
-Again, billions of other people out there, but he was the one he homed in on. Then again, Beast Boy was the one who broke into his room. But you should feel sorry for the sap.
Now everything was set and ready for the book to work it’s will and put its curse in motion.
-You know what I love about this? Reading this whole thing means I don’t have to read the fic.
...
Not that I was going to anyway, kind of not really interested in his non-starfleet stuff. Well, except for the stuff I’m usng for evolution but that is another fic.
Beast Boy’s spirit and personality soon began to fade away as he was cursed and corrupted by darkness and hatred beyond imagination.
-If that is beyond imagination, then boy howdy do you have a limited imagination.
Finally, he was reborn, as an adult version of himself, an embodiment of darkness and servant to the book.
-A nega pope?
He became COUNT LOGAN
-A name so important, I had to capitalize it.
: A villain who is motivated by grief and regret!
-Never heard of that one before! It’s like the third time you made this!
(It's not because of just Terra dumping him, I think we've already COVERED that. Insist that it's just because Terra dumped him... "You're are dense")
-I empthasised this, not to say “Well, he has a point,” I am empathising the just to point out that it doesn’t really matter in the eyes of the viewer or the reader. See, if you wanted us to believe that it wasn’t just Terra dumping him, then leave out the stalking and the scenes where he gets beaten by the bullies. Leave out the bits where he is pining for her every five minutes. As it stands, it seems that it was only Terra that was responsible.
Hell, by not having Beast Boy talk about his past, all of the above you have said feels like tacked on filler to try and make it seem like it wasn’t the only thing that was affecting him.
A slave to the book,
-I would make a religion joke here, but I want to think I have more aof an appreciation for my audience.
Logan had no choice but to accept his new position fate. He could never go back to the way he was. He was created by evil to SERVE evil (Nothing more)
-and yet still has the mind and body of Beast Boy why? Wouldn’t this be a hinderance to him?
“I am doing as I was created for. These are the wishes of The Dark Prognosticus. I serve it…! This is my fate. The price I had to pay for the way things were. The way I suffered!”
-You will never understand my needs Terra! You will never understand my pain!
(Logan explaining to Terra his position)
That and he may as well use this opportunity to exact VENGEANCE on people who wronged him.
-Hmmmm, died and came back. I could explain my experiences or go on a talk show and make millions. Or I could go evil. Well, evil has cookies.
Using his new powers, Logan began to kill others to understand his might and increase his abilities.
-Understanding through death, makes sense.
He eventually Met Dr. Nekard,
-Must not break down laughing at the name. I will not break down laughing at the name.
whom became his first minion, after which, Logan used the powers of the book to create his other three minions to help him in quest.
-Let’s see, what will we need? A hot sexy general, a lackey with a special power, and a big dumb tough one.
Eventually constructing a castle to serve as their base of operations, located in a realm composes entirely of darkness
-He constructed his own freaking castle...Dude, get out of the evil business and get into evil constructing! You’ll make a mint.
(Reflecting the Count’s heart… cold… miserably… painful)
-Why is it that every description you put in is like a goth kid’s first poetry section!
and his outfit,
-Is the second lamest attempt at a costume I had ever seen and I am a sonic fan.
the way it covers his entire body is because he doesn’t wish to look upon himself (Because he was shamed and ashamed)
-So he was created by the Dark Proboscis, but he still retains enough of his sanity and will to be shamed.Methinks you are trying to have some cake and eat it too.
Poor Logan was a mess; deep down all this was still not helping him, and life itself has become a prison, always reminding him of his betrayal and heartbreaks!
-
Sorry but all of this talk is making me think of pennance. Aka, someone’s bright idea. Someone thought of this, thought it was cool and an interesting take on the character. Someone thought that this was an interesting take on the character.Someone thought this design was a good idea!
He hated it that other people had it better than he did,
-*A slave on Apocolpsy* Yup, having the time of my motherfucking life down here!
and he began to see the worlds and meaningless and worthless!
-Even the planet of the malls?!
However, even death itself could not solve his problems, as even in death there is no escape from the feelings of darkness.
-Exesue?
So incredibly insane, hurt and upset
-No, please go back to how he is feeling things after death.
(As well as it being the wishes of the Dark Prognosticus as well as his own fate)
-No, sop right there! You are saying an emotional impossiblity.
he realized all he could now to end his suffering was to fulfill the Dark Prognosticus’ wishes:
-I said stop! How in the seven hells are you supposed to feel remorse, sadness, and depression while you are dead? What are we using Green Lantern logic now? Because if we are, then you just invalidated a comment you made not too long ago where you said,
“I am not using the rest of the comics because there is no room for those heroes.”
He was going to get revenge by destroying everything that wronged him, took away his happiness and everything he couldn’t stand… Existence itself!
-Thanos steps in, and frowns at him, “That’s my job Logan.”
Logan: No, I’m all power ful and-urrk *Neck snap by the mad titan.*
Thanos: And that was for trying to mooch on my girl Death.
Death of the Endless: *rolls eyes* Fine, one picinic.
Thanos: YAY!!!!! *Skips away*
Before you Thanos fanboys come at me for the previous setch, let me say this...Thanos is my favorite of the Marvel Galatic villians. I make fun of him as often as I do Doom and Dr. Doom is my favorite Comic Book villian of all time.
So he turned to the pages and unleashed the greatest and deadlist spell/prohphecy
-Will someone get this guy a Thesarus...and a dictionary, because he still has no idea what deities are.
within the book, and thus, THE VOID
-~into the void~ *Starts rocking out the kiss music.
was formed which would eventually engulf the entire universe!
-Antimonitor: Hey mack, get out of my line of work  *Wipes Logan from Exsitance* I swear, all of these yutzes standing in my way. Oy Vey, it’s enough to get a brain hemorage.
...
Don’t know why I made the Antimonitor Jewish on that joke.
“What have I done?!” (Logan regretting his actions)
-Ah, see this is classic “My character isn’t bad, really!” actions to try and make you think that he is ok. Here is the problem though...You just talked about how he wants to wipe out his pain and misery, you have put this all on him. You have spent the past few paragraphs into making him into a whiny putz that you don’t have sympathy for, at all.
With the prophecy now in motion, Logan felt content, but deep down he was greatly remorseful.
-I am really happy about this! But also I am vewy sad. Won’t you please pity me!!!!!!!
However, because he was a slave to the Dark Prognosticus, he couldn’t let his emmotions get to him,
-And so he-lets his emotions get to him and he goes off on a mass murdering rampage because he feels angry, hate, despair, loss, and so many other emotions.
so he continued on his path as a way of accepting his position and making the most of things.
-Made the castle into a bacherlor pad, got a hot tub, brought out some game systems, made a theater system, kind of homey actually.
To strengthen the void, Logan and his henchmen killed people and obliterated more worlds themselves to accelerate the void’s expansion.
-This was, in hindsight, really stupid as it will attract attention. He chose to do the smart thing instead and wait it out. It was long, but it was well worth it.
Logan decided Tamaran would be the first world to go, as he was angered by Starfire and Robin, and how their relationship worked and he lost Terra.
-*Bangs head* You just said that this wasn’t just about Terra!!!!!! Look, if you want us to believe that this isn’t about Terra, then leave her out of it. Remove her from this paragraph and your argument is won. Here, I’ll help!
He wanted Starfire to see and feel what it was like ot have everything you ever loved taken away from you
-There, this is all that was neeeded, but by adding in Terra you have ruined you own bleeding argument!!!
“My pain becomes your pain!”
-Here suffer you slave girl who was trapped on a station, lived with the fear of being raped, tortured, and emotionally scarred worst than I am. Feel my pain!!!!
Logan wished the Earth not be destroyed just yet (Maybe tinkered with) mainly because he still has SOME fondness of his homeworld (and Terra was on it)
-*drinks some Romulan Ale* And another thing about your argument, it doesn’t really hold water under-hic-under-hic-srcuntny
Deep down he actually still had feelings for the girl, and his remorse continued to eat at him (Especially after all he had done)
-*drinks some more* see, right there? By saying that he feels about her and that he cares for her, you are making this more and more about Terra. You bearly touch upon anyhting else about his backstory. It’s like you only use it for more emotional baggage. Sorry kid, but that won’t fly.
He eventually captured Terra and brought her to his castle as prisoner, where he would make her watch all the worlds fall and then he would kill her too.
-Then you add this malarky into the mix, giving us more reason to believe that this is solely about Terra. You don’t want us to believe that this is only about her, then ditch her. Remove her from the equation. And *Drinks* I don’t think I can feel my eyes
Plop.
“You wanted Change, Terra? YOU GOT IT!!!”
-You know what would be an interesting twist...if Terra killed herself because of all of this. I mean, she can’t be normal, she is being forced into a superhero role now, and appearently can’t even have her own opinion without causing death. I would be looking out for her, guys.
But this was it. Logan was completely broken, a prisoner not only of his own power but his feelings as well.
-Wich, even though it isnt just about Terra, is revolving around Terra for some odd pecular reason.
After much time of being haunted and feeling extreme guilt of all he had done (Including beheading Flurry Heart as was shown earlier int he fic)
-As well as the sin of wearing that horrible outfit!!!! I mean, my god, that outfit is like one of the worst things I have ever seen in my life!!!!
He had truly seen just how evil and despicable he had become, and he fell into despair worse than anything he had ever had.
-So, let’s go over the dark Prognosticator little plan here.
Pick an emo teen who is convinced that his life is misry and sadness and we should all suffer like he has because no one else in the world has.
Put him under his control so he can destroy everything in exsitance
Instead of giving him a happy life to make control easier, he maks sure that he falls DEEPER into dispair, setting it up for an immintent downfall
Lets him kidnap the girl who is responsible for all of this
?????
Profit!
I am really thinking that this bad guy sucks as plans.
He loved Terra so much, and nothing he could do would change that.
-Wich is why, instead of controlling her, he threw her into a dungeon and made her suffer the torment of watching the world go bye. Truely he is a tragic lover in all of this
He really wished there was some way he could end all this, maybe even reverse it all (Bring back those he killed) and maybe… just maybe, things could be okay again.
-Well, there is always Mykan’s tried and true Dues Ex Machina! Why worry about consequences when there is Dues Ex Machina
However, there were problems regarding all this.
-That he was being written by a writer who thinks that this all you need to make a sympathetic villian?
-Logan could not close the void. Once he had unleashed it… it’s out of his hands. He can’t stop it no matter how much he or may not want to.
-Why?
“The prophecy cannot be stopped. Even I cannot stop it now!”
-Also he was still owned by the Dark Pronogsticus. It was the master, he was the slave. He had no choice but to continue to fulfill the book’s desires. It was what he was created for!
-And in order to do this for peak efficencay, he...kept all of the memories. Again, villian of the year.
-Plus, now that he thought about it, why should he stop? He’s come this far. It’s too late to go back, and he’s got nothing to gain by going back anyway.
-Are you feeding us information or giving us story beats, because this is all stuff we can glance over as we read this stuff. Then again, considerign your prose is usually very dull and dry.
Count Logan will never be a redeemable villain no matter how many times you claim he is/will be. (Words of a mocker)
-Gee, think its because of the whole entire baby killing; thing?
That’s how they all treated him while he just BB, the same way you’re treating him now. (My argument)
-So your argument is, since they treated hi bad once in a while that it is ok for him to go genocidal on us all?
So what’s he got to gain by stopping? Nothing but more heartache, more misery, pain, and all the things that what started all this in the first place.
-*Puts on psycological glasses*  Now, maybe we should start talking about your psycogolgical issues.
Joking aside, while this kind of thinking is ok for a villian, it’s generally more accepted if the villian had some sort of charisma or was really  symptatpetic to us readers. This allows us to understand their plight. However, the way Beast Boy is written in this, feels more like his just crying his eyes out for nothing, especially in comparison to his fellow heroes.
He can never move on, (He has nothing to move on to) There is nothing to be gained from quitting, only lost.
-Except freedom, help, and a lovely new vacation in the bahamas. But, then again, this is the weakest villian I have met.
Since the prophecy could not be stopped…
-For reason’s hereto unexplained.
He couldn’t free himself from his bond with the book…
-Even though, later on we see him break the connection by just having a new bad guy take it up.
And he felt he had come too far to quit and had nothing to gain by stopping… Logan regarded his remorse as pointless, and he continued on destroying things (But his remorse continued to eat away at him and it pained him dearly)
-So, he hated to destroy, but he kept on anyway even though it did nothing to help him...You know, there is a proper way to do this. If any of you have a favorite villian that has this persona, please write it down in the comments below.
As Logan continued with his plans he had lied to his henchmen.
-Jerk!
He told them that after all worlds were destroyed, he would build whole new worlds with peace and happiness that THEY could enjoy “With none of the icky stuff” as the minions put it.
-Define icky stuff, and if you could please do it as an adult, that would be great thanks.
When In actuality, he is planning on leaving it all in ruin and perishing along with it, feeling he has nothing left to live for and is too upset and ashamed with what he has done to go on anyway. (Though he cared deeply for his minions)
-You know, you could skip steps one through three by just letting the void do it’s job. You would win...you would succeed.
To him, the world just held no meaning, no joy, and nothing to exist for as it pained him so much. There was nothing at all that could save him now…
…Nothing!
-*Aighs*

VEWING
-Viewing what? Am I supposed to see something?
Count Logan is a very unique figure to the heroes and the ponies.
-Wait, what? How? He sounds like generic villian 587 to me. Doesn’t seem all that different from any other villian who has the “Woe is me and my life, how much misery do I have suffer in order for me to have my life fufilled.”
He is the only enemy they have ever faced who is driven by sadness
-What?
What?!
WHAT???!
I...I just. I am trying my best to not use Mr. Freeze because that one is too easy! Oh god, there are just so many that are motivated by sadness it isn’t even funny. I mean, isn’t that like one of the three big motivators for villians? Insanity, rage, and sadness leading to a desire for revenge?
Dude, do not try and anyalize a comic book villian if your only connection to the universe is a freaking cartoon show!
and remorse, rather than a lust for power or control.
-Hmmm, I count Sombra as one of the ones motivated purely by control. Starlight was motivated by the sadness of losing her only friend, Tempest was by the fact everyone shunned her after getting scared, And then we have some of the DC villians. I mean, shoot, just one season of the Flash will give you plenty of villians motivated by sadness and heartbreak.
He created the void out of bitterness and heartbreak.
-But again, Terra was not a determining factor. Remember that.
All he wanted to was end his suffering (Something that only NON-EXISTANCE could make happen)
-Still don’t know how you feel anything while dead or why the book picked a winy teenager instead of any of the heartless other bad guys out there in the DC universe.
He at first seems to be a stereotypical, heartless villain, with no feelings or regard for anyone or anything!
-And he is. Thank you for agreeing with me.
Only now to be understood; Logan is in fact an emotionally tortured person which makes him less evil than he appears
-PFFFFTT!!!!!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!
Ok class, sit around, it’s time for another lesson in writing. From an ACTUAL writer and not some chump who thinkgs that writing is something that you just do to relieve yourself og pain.
Just because you understand a person and their actions, does not make him a tragic villian. It doesn’t make him less evil, just because you know his actions. Look at Dr. Doom. He lost his mother and that is his big motivation, does this mean that we should see his desire to conqure the world as less evil? NO! It is still freaking evil.
You want to make a tragic and sympathetic villian, fine. That is perfectly fine and dandy, some of my favorite villians of all time are tragic villlians, but don’t try to force it onto us. Look, Magneto is a very tragic villian, but his past doesn’t hide the fact that he still KILLED an entire ship of people and would wipe out all homo sapiens if he had the chance.
(His actions are not justifiable but they are understandable)
-No, they are not. Doing this because your mother is held by the devil, understandable. Because you feel that the Kryptonian is misusing his power while you are incapable of understanding the basic thought of genuine kindness, understandable. Doing this because you found out that your whole freaking life was a lie and that it was all because some electric company wanted you to lead them to a promise land and that the greed of humanity is making you inot a horrible person? Understandable. KEfka...is not understandable and is just scary.
He is a tragic, sadistic and hopeless character, whose evil deeds, hatred of worlds and lust for destruction were all born from the purest of emotions… LOVE.
-If you have to tell us this, congratualtions, you failed in making a really tragic character. What’s more, by not showing us any real remorse, we don’t really feel that he is...
Wait...
LOVE!!!!!!!
You mean, you just went on a few minutes, tellin us about how this was tragedy and all of that jazz, just to break it down to love?!!!!!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSpcXtFe1Jo
All he ever wanted was to be truly loved and understood, instead he always got the exact opposite of all this. The Titans negligence and pushy ways pushed him over the edge.
-Looks at all of the times Beast Boy is paling around with the gang( Oh yeah, I can so totally see that. I mean it is so obivious that Beast Boy was negelted and was painfully pushed on.
Will you please stop pushing your own agenda onto a character?
The Titans, as well as others are responsible for creating Count Logan and bringing forth all the chaos.
-So our sympathies lie with them since they are trying to save people and stop this while he is basically letting himself be pushed around.
-THEY were harsh with him
-THEY drove him insane
-You know the problem with the above? If I wasn’t a fan of the show, I would be questioning this with the question of where is the proof.
-THEY caused him to lose faith which allowed the book to curse him
-Again, even though the book had a billion other canditates, this whiny putz was more worthy.
*At the titans and Terra* "...You did this!" (That is what I'm aiming for in the story: It's more THEIR fault all this is happening... though it doesn't excuse BB's actions either)
-And you...failed. Hard. It isn’t even funny with how hard you failed at bringing this important message to life. Why? Because we never really see him remorseful for his actions and evrrything he does in this feels more like everyoen is at fault for not bowing to him and treating him like a god because he has had a bad life. Oh boo hoo hoo. We are so saddened by something that obiviously doesn’t really affect him. This totally makes us sympathetic to his cause and think that the titans, who only wanted him to move on, are the bad guys in this.
and NOOOOOOOO... regardless of what you may pretend to think (Without hurting yourselves)
-And this also hurts your argument, because now it makes you look like a child. Well, you are one.
I was trying to justify BB's actions,
-You know, if you just read what you write once in a while, I wouldn’t have as much fun as I am now.
I'm just trying to say that his actions were UNDERSTANDIBLE. (Not that it matters, since you people are still whining about it anyway)
-I am not whining, I’m complaining. Do you want to hear whining?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=csPPqdbcVwM
Thank you Rarity.
Ra: You are welcome darling.
So now it's clearer... I suggest people learn to READ and not judge.
-Translation: Let my character alone! He is pure and untouchable! Stop trying to hurt his feelins by insultin him! You are all monsters who need to learn better! WAHHHHHHHHH!
Sorry, but we read and we interpit. You don’t want that, then don’t write it.
Until next Time... I leave you vids that have Logan in them...
-Oh joy. Welll, lets see what we got here tonight!!
Mykan out.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=176&v=d63QJZ1OP9E
-Ehh, the song is a little too depressing and doesn’t really match up. The lyrics are a bit dull and lifeless.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=42&v=SbMlE9LEQWE
-Jared Leto, please do not give this guy a dead rat, he doesn’t deserve it.
Anyway, this song doesn’t really work. This is a whiny little brat who is striking out against the world just because he doesn’t get what he wants. The song talks about the futility of war, about it affects the soldiers beyond what we see, and how it hurts everyone. There is no favorites in war, only titles that we give ourselves anf what others tell us we are. And in the end, war will will change us all.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_BbyyXBVPw
-I apologize for Les Mis fans. He probably never really watched the show at all. But if I am right, this is again talking about tragedy and the loss og friends who moved on. This is not all about you screaming out about how thee guys are wrong.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=2&v=QMLEoJqeAeg
-*BANG!* You do not sully one of the most important days in human history with your slime.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1&v=1V01K51igO4
-Somedays I wonder if he actually watches these musicals or jut listens to the songs.
Now then, unlike the Bio I made for him (Because I spied on people and saw they're getting ready to riff him... like fish to the hook)
-Hey, sorry I was late to the party but work was literally zapping the comedy out of my body.
Now I'm going to give my own insights on what I made The End of Ends like it was.
-HAHAHA!!! Buddy, once it is out there, any and all interpitations belong to us the readers. We do not care about you.
And remember... It's NOT just because BB was dumped by Terra, but that plus an and entire life of hardship, tragedy, heartbreak, misery and shameful people treating him wrong.
-Sadly, since you use the “Greatest emotion of all, love” line, you made it more about Terra than what you were going for, sorry, but them’s the breaks kid.
Firstly, people like to tell me how wrong I am about how the Titans treat Beast Boy,
-You kind of are. Big Time. It’s like saying Misty is a bitch while forgetting the rest of her character traits. That is called, ‘flanderization.’ not that you would know anything about that, right?
perhaps they are wrong, but it makes no difference to me.
-I love how this is never about you and how you are wrong. No, it’s all on us.
Remember, my RULE OF ONE SIDE
-Ah yes, that stupid rule.
It's all ONE or all THE OTHER, not both-
-Because that is how humanity works! Remember, there is only one type of person and a person acts only like one way all of the time. He never changes or has his moments of kindness.
Sometimes the Titans are nice to him, sometimes they are mean to him.
-It’s like humanity has different emotions and feelings throughout their lifetimes and it takes more than just a few days to get to know a person.
  Not anymore, it's either all one or all the other.
-Aren’t you glad I am not making a politcal joke right now? I so could but I refuse!
 They are either all bad or all good.
-Yeah, its not like I know of good people back where I used to work and I can tell you about them, but they were all bad. Yep, no good at all. Or I would say that if I were a jerk.
  (And if they are all bad, then anything good that's ever happened is now null and void to me "It means nothing")
- That’s right. Even if you do good oout there people, according to Mykan logic, you are already bad and must be punished. Don’t try and redeem yourself or make yourself better, just bask in the glow of your own villany, or better yet...
Like I also told you before, Beast Boy respected Terra's wishes and let her go (Be it I wrote it that way or not) and for that... I'm going to beat him up.
-And people wonder if the scene on Fall was a paraelle to how the characters feel about Mykan abandoning them and treating them like garbage
 You know the rules in my world- If a guy loses a girl and it really steams me, then the guy will not only be denied having any happiness in his life BY ME,
-Because you are the high allmighty master of the realm and we must all obey you, or else. Yadda yadda. We know, and that they must follow your evil whims or be punished because they can’t have lives or do what you lack the courage to do you mangy coward.
 the following must go into effect.
-And here we go, you might want to get some hot chocolate. Most likely, you heard this one before
-He lives a long and pointless life, with nothing but scorn from others, unappreciated, and loses more than he gains all the time (This way, he'll have nothing to gain by moving on)
-Even if it makes no sense, it’s completely OOC, and really just ends up demeaning the character in the end. Hey as long as my sense of worth is built back up.
-Have a super falling out with those who were once his friends. Again, I don't care if people say his friends never treated him that way, MY RULES ARE MY RULES.
 -I would like to imagine when he says these things that he has his fingers in his ear and screaming “Can’t hear you!!!”
You break them, and I'll break you
-Heh, these characters are stronger than you think. They won’t break so easily.
 (The cartoon character) and Common Sense and good judgment won't save you this time.
-You know, when you say this, you are just saying that you have no common sense or good judgement. Wich kind of says a lot by your standards.
-He must become an Anti-Hero by choice, or become the primary antagonist (Usually NOT by choice) There was no "Yes or No" when it came to that book. It chose him, and that was it. "The choice is not yours"
-Deconstructed that out the window. Although, I do want to go for another round on that one.
 -Do not reconcile with former friends. The friendship is shattered... FOREVER,
-Yes, because that’s how it works. That is so how life works for those of you who are usually insane in the membraine.
end of story. Even if I wrote it so BB agreed to help the others face Draken in the final battle, in the end,
-It doesn’t even matter!
Sorry, in a Linkin Park mood
he would still wish NEVER to makeup and reconcile with them, balk at their desires to want to make up with him, and just leave,
-Only to cry about it a little later on his blog about how much they suck and are cruel and he wants his momma.
so they'll all feel dejected, hurt, and Terra can be heart-broken (Hopefully irreparably like how she did to him.)
-Either that or they all party like crazy while he is gone and get Kid Flash as a replacement.
-If reconciliation looks hopeful, the dude must die.
-Wow, you are a giant monster aren’t you? I mean, there is evil, there is cruel, and then there is you.
  That way he STILL can't reconcile with his friends, and they can still be hurt (That's why I killed BB on Friendship is Failure #3, so the potential will never be.)
-And yet it still felt like it did in the end. See, this is what happens when you try to do something that you just aren’t  good at.
Yeah, I know (I can tell without reading) a lot of you are insulting me right now
-Actually, I am making a soundtrack for Fall arc 1. Trying my best to think of a good Dislestia theme that I have.
and saying how much my rules suck. Well it sucks to be you then. "When you read in my world, you'll read by my rules."
-And the problem with that is, the moment we came here, it became our world too.
And the rule stands for BB or any guy in a couple I deeply supported: "Get the Girl... or Get punished!"
-Even if they don’t really have that much in common or are really all thatgood together, they must get together.
But remember, Terra is not the only factor.
Now, as for Logan himself, people also complain "He's too stuish and overpowered"
-I’m not complaining. I like OP bad guys. It makes me excited to kick thier asses. It feels so good that there are strong bad guys for me to kick. Because to me, a god is just another face for me to kick. If there is a dinosaur in the ice, then I want to teach it to balance atop a ball and-
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wh8ii9AFdSQ
Well, he kinda HAS to be, and for several reasons.
-Because I am an unoriginal hack who has no idea how tension works.
1: He is supposed to have the tittle
-I am going to be mature and not laugh at that mistake. I will not laugh and move on.
of "An Evil that is beyond ALL imagination"
-Its a shame that he isn’t, not really. Shishio, Kefka, Sephiroth, hell even Garland are more badass and evil beyond all imagination than this guy. At worst, he’s Kylo Ren.
  (Regaurdless of whatever wangasty, bitchiness, or emo slurrs people wish to mock him with)
-Oh please, as if I resort to slurs. I let the other people and my betters do that for me. I prefer to deconstruct.
 With a title like that, he SHOULDN'T be that easy to beat or even scratch,
-Ah, but with everything, there has to be a balance. Go too far one way and he’ll seem too invinvable and not very believable that the heroes can win. And when you go too far where you are taking out power houses from the cannon verse. Well, then it goes way to far and makes it look less like the villian is powerful and just an over bearing boss.
For example, Freiza was just the right mix of super powered while making it believable that he could be taken down. Dio is the same way.
 otherwise he's just another MOTW. (Monster of the Week)
-We know how Acronyms work.
  He has to be really strong, fierce, and deadly, to hold up a reputation like that
-Or just be poweful and intimating.
(Something that NO MLP villian ever did with me... not even Sombra or the Storm king)
-Wait, so the tops for you are Storm King and Sombra? SOMBRA AND STORM KING! Look I love Storm King and all, he’s a fun and silly villina, but tops on the mlp roster he is not. Hell, Tempest stole the show from him! And you put the dreaded Even on him as if he was some sort of powerhouse of MLP villians?
I'm just doing this now to mock the Storm King (Practically all MLP villains...)
-Oh this is going to be fun. Allow me to start with some Storm King questions.
*Picture Logan talking to the Storm King*
*The storm king wishes to help Logan, feeling he become more powerful if they teamed up*
Storm King: Wait, why would I want to work with this guy. He’s kind of...emo and depressing. He’ll cramp my style! Besides, he just isn’t that marketable. I mean, look at that armor, my stocks will plummet from the idea alone!
Logan: "In your world, they call you "A King?"
S.K: Well, acutally they call me the boss. I am trying to get King Trademarked but the lawyers say I don’t have a case. No good snakes.
Logan: "In mine... we would call you "a child"
Storm King: Me, a child? Oh that’s funny coming from mr. Livejournal. I have something you don’t, emo boy. Personality. Yeah, Tempest may outshine me in the movie, but lets face it...at least I’m fun. You just cry every five minutes and say how we all need to bow to you.
"An arrogant, demanding, blinded child!
Storm King: Are...are you ignoring me? I just insulted you and you are just going off on your tagent?
Do you really think that you can come to me with a proposition, assumed that I even WANT or NEED your help? Storm King...!
Storm King: Hey, you came to me, appearently to mock me. You must not have much to do.
  *Chuckles* Oh, forgive me... "Your highness." You said we understood each other... You COULD NOT be more wrong!"
Storm King: You’re right, we don’t understand each other. Give me a moment. *Snaps fingers* Tempest?
Tempest: *rolls eyes* Yes, master.
Storm King: Write me a sob story.
Tempest: *Frowns, and uses her magic to type up a story* Here ya go boss. I’m going to go get hosed.
Storm King: Ahem...My mother abused me until I was 10, leaving me to fend for myself. All the while I craved the kind touch of someone, anyone out there. It was soon that I realized that by letting others follow me, I could make the world care for me and love me like I always wanted. This also helped to fill in the loss of my father and friends, who always seemed to dissappear whenever I got close to anyone. I decided to become king in order to make the world love me.
There, now I have a sad sack story, now we understand each other.
Logan: "I understand you; your petty quest for bits of power... your need to conquer... your desires! But you... don't see me."
Storm King: *Blinks* I see you, right there. You are standing there, in front of me.
Logan: "Oh, but I am, especially in one particular way: I've EARNED my title and my position. You've been GIVEN yours, Storm King.
Storm King: Weren’t you given your power because a book saw you and thought that you were perfect for the host. Then it GAVE you the power to wipe out existance? That sounds like you were given the power to me. Right Tempest?
Tempest: *slurred* Too drunk to care!!!!!
Storm King: See? You were also given the power to make all of this by that book.Were it not for the book you would be just little Beast Boy!
I... am a true embodiment of darkness... and you're just a little boy."
Storm King: If the embodiment of darkness is a whiny 17 year-old...I need a new line of work.
Logan *Cuts in&: "You are excused... *Taps his Cane for his minions to come* Take him away, and dispose of him."
Storm King: Don’t bother, I’m out! Have fun with your destruction or whatever. By the way, my assasstant emptied your booze storage.
Tempest: ~HEre we are, the princessess of the universe~
Whoo! That felt good... now moving on...
-Awww, but I was having fun putting in the actual Storm King personality and ignoring your horribly adapted piece of material. Yeah, I know he stole it. Don’t know where, but I know he stole the dialouge.
2: He's so overpowered: Well... um, in case you didn't notice
-Yeah, I kind of been skimming the original...kind of boring if you ask me.
"He's trying to LITERALLY obliterate the universe" and in a short time as well (A matter of weeks)
-Do not get me started on your little timeline shennigans!
Don't you think you need an awful lot of power for that--
-The empire did it with only a small planetoid.
to destroy planets whole, shatter multiple stars with one strike, wipe out a million races just like that. You need LOTS of power for that.
-Eh, just a planet sized planet buster and you’re good.
And remember... It's NOT just because BB was dumped by Terra,
-But it is, I’m just trying to lie my pants off.
but that plus an and entire life of hardship, tragedy, heartbreak, misery and shameful people treating him wrong.
-i.e nobody kissing his ass and treating him like a king.
  He's angry, insane, and hurt, and he wishes to stop the pain and get revenge at the same time... Killing himself simply, will not do it (As spirits can feel pain as well, and eventually the spirits of others would join him in death...
-WHAT?!
 but through NON-EXISTENCE, that won't happen)
-Antimoniter: Ok, now I am gonna sue somebody.
Also, getting back to the Titans, and my STILL being wrong about the way they treated
-Oh joy, more “They hurt my cinnamon roll!!!!”
 Beast Boy, I still don't care. The goal of the story was to make it more THEIR FAULT all that destruction happened
 -So to prove your point, you had to lie, falsifie evidence, make faulty excuses, and trick the audience.
(They drove BB off the edge... which made the book curse him... which brought forth the destruction)
-It was all their fault and not the whiny crybaby in the corner who wants everyone to kow tow to his needs!!!!
"You did it, Titans"
-You know, this would be the point where ever one gives him a bitch slap.
And being nice to BB won't drive him off the edge, will it? and it also won't make it look more like their faults like I want it to be.
-Again, so you have to lie in order to make your story work. Have you not seen the problem with this?
That's pretty much the basic idealism I have and want to see in fiction.
-So, you are bringing out ideals and making things seem brighter?
 You tell me, "The Titans are his friends... Never treated him like that... ect, ect" I don't care.
-And I know you don’t care. Hell, this hasn’t been about making you mad, fixing you, or anything else. This has beenn purely for the enjoyment of somepeople who want a good laugh.
You tell me "He's overpowered, a stu, an unredeemable villain." Still not caring...
-Not caring, yadda yadda. How much you want to bet he is going to say that this isn’t a version of him.
I like him just how he is. and NOOOOO... he isn't a version of me,
-*Claps* Thank you for proving my faith in you.
because I do not wish to destroy ACTUAL REAL worlds or kill people in real life.
-Nope, but let’s look at the facts. He represents your ideals (No redemption, no forgiveness), he represents your hate (Terra doesn’t get together with him, he despises the Titans), he is a force of your creation that is to provide release for your own pain (Wich you admit as such), and is a whiny little brat who has to deal with the fact that no one is treating him right and he wants to be held.
Yep, that is you. It doesn’t even need to be the killing world or powers to be you. But it’s the real important thing. If you didn’t want it to be you, then you need to ditch the persona.
Killing fictional people is just part of the story (The story is no good without it) doesn't Count.
-Points to the above statement*
"Yes it does, and a it makes you a sick little freak that should be locked up"
-Hey, when you make all of the insults for me...
Again, I say... No it doesn't.
-You should actually pay attention to what you write you  know. People can so easily use it against you.
This is my world, and what I say goes... and I say, if you don't like it, then take a hike and take your so-called "Common Sense" with you!
-Very well idoit!!!!
Until next time, Mykan out!
 -Waves by.

Your Thursday Morning Roundup
Apparently Roger Goodell couldn’t bribe Jerry Jones with the NFL Draft.
The feud between the NFL Commissioner and the owner of the Dallas Cowboys has gotten testier now after reports last night that Jones has hired a lawyer and threatened to sue the NFL to try and stop Goodell from getting a contract extension:
Jones said in a conference call last Thursday with the six owners — those of the Chiefs, Falcons, Giants, Patriots, Steelers and Texans — that legal papers were drawn up and would be served this Friday if the committee did not scrap or delay its current plans to extend Goodell’s contract.
As of Wednesday, the owners and the league had not been sued.
Jones, who has owned the Cowboys since 1989, has been a nonvoting member of the committee that is considering Goodell’s contract, which expires at the end of the 2018 season. He has fought to have a say.
After Jones’s conference call last week, the six owners revoked his status as an ad hoc member of the compensation committee, which decides on pay packages for the top league officials.
Of course all of this stems from the Ezekiel Elliott case as the Cowboys’ star fights every week with injunctions and court appeals to delay and potentially overturn a six-game suspension that is looming over Elliott and Dallas. For now, Elliott is eligible to play, but is due in court today.
As you would expect, Goodell is not taking this well:
A person who spoke recently with Goodell said the commissioner is “furious” about Jones’ and other owners’ insistence that his next contract’s compensation should be more performance-based, including incentives that would allow him to be paid at roughly the same level of his current deal. “He feels as if the owners have made a lot of money and he should be compensated accordingly,” the source said. “The incentives thing really angers him.”
Maybe the 2018 season would start without Elliott or Goodell? That would be something most football fans would cheer about.
Let’s go.
The Roundup:
Philadelphia, the Major League Baseball community, and many others are still reeling after the tragic death of Roy Halladay on Tuesday. Kyle has a story, like many do, with Halladay. His Thank You post, in part:
The first ever post I wrote on this site was on the day the Phillies traded for him in December of 2009. I of course celebrated the arrival of Halladay but criticized Ruben Amaro for trading away Cliff Lee to make it happen. It’s a bad post. But it’s also one that quite literally changed my life, or at least my “career,” if that’s what you can call sitting at home blogging about sports.
I started multiple sites over the years, and none of them stuck. No one read them. But interest in Philly sports may have been at an all-time time high when the Phillies traded for Halladay. I figured I’d try one more time to start a website and see if I could make something of it.
I took to Facebook to create a Halladay fan page. At the time, you could be a fan of anything on Facebook– from a sausage link to a famous athlete. The social network wasn’t used for brand or official pages yet, and there were probably 10 or so dedicated to Halladay as a Phillie, but for some reason mine is the one that stuck, and it quickly amassed a few thousand fans, and then 10,000, and eventually more than 80,000.
I realized that I had a captive audience and that I could post links to my blog posts on the page. Despite the accusation of some Phillies bloggers at the time, I never posted as Roy or pretended to be him, I simply ran a fan page dedicated to him.
The readers I got from those early posts are the reason the site exists today.
Tom Verducci of Sports Illustrated also posted a great ode to Doc yesterday:
Just by being himself, Halladay somehow became the best pitcher in baseball with a dearth of attention. When I once asked him about such a rare achievement in this noisy world of sports, he replied, “It’s definitely by choice. For me the satisfaction is always the competition, and the self-gratification knowing you did something to the best of your ability and I think that’s all it will ever be for me. It’s not ever going to be who knows me and what do they think about me. It’s ultimately going to come down to how I went about doing my job.”
Never before or since have I seen ferocity of greatness combined with such humility. Halladay was the genuine article: a gentle, charitable soul with the most aggressive, attacking pitching style you could ever find.
Sadly an asshole in Boston mocked Halladay’s death.
TMZ Sports posted some pretty breathtaking videos from witnesses of Halladay’s flight and the crash aftermath.
The latest Crossing Broadcast dropped yesterday and was dedicated to Doc.
In hoops, the Sixers extended their winning streak to five games with a 104-97 win over the Jazz on Tuesday night. Our Sixers reporter Kevin Kinkead has his observations from the west-coast win:
It was January 9, 2012, the last time Philly won five games in a row. Andre Iguodala put up 20, 9, and 5 in a 96-86 win against the Pacers. Lou Williams added 13 off the bench and Tyler Hansbrough was still in the league.
So it’s been awhile since we’ve seen this kind of success, and I’m not still not even convinced they’ve played their best basketball this year. Again we saw Brett Brown’s team come flying out of the gates only to slump through an ugly 14-point second quarter.
But again they shot above 44% from three-point range and ripped off timely steals, blocks, and defensive stops. Again they outworked another team in their home building. Again and again and again. They just find a way to get it done despite the circumstances.
Jahlil Okafor played on Tuesday night, just his second appearance this season. HoopsRumors summarized the potential landing spots for the former Duke Blue Devil, should the Sixers trade him:
The Celtics are one obvious suitor, with an $8.4MM disabled player exception available to use on Okafor, but the Sixers seem unenthusiastic about sending the big man to a division rival. The Bulls and Hawks have been mentioned as possible landing spots, and it makes sense that rebuilding teams like those would be willing to take a shot on a player with Okafor’s pedigree. The Suns – another rebuilding club – reportedly has some interest in Okafor too. And the Bucks look like an ideal fit — they just traded Greg Monroe, and they’re armed with a $5MM trade exception that is the perfect size for Okafor’s $4,995,120 salary.
The team returns to action on Thursday night at the Sacramento Kings (2-8). Tip is at 10pm.
Back to the NFL, things are pretty quite on the Eagles front with the bye week and no media availability for a few days. NBC’s Tony Dungy probably wishes he was quiet, instead of talking about the Colts, on a hot mic.
Another team that is in disarray, the New York Giants, may be making some changes, sooner or later:
For the record, w/o giving him away, source showed up in my DMs around last offseason and has been right/wrong about a few Giants reports re: Free Agency and then the Draft. I'm not jumping the gun just yet, I just want to pass along what I'm hearing. https://t.co/EQ9uZJUEFK

Another report:
#Giants source says he would be "Shocked beyond belief" if Ben McAdoo were to be retained as HC for next year. Says "[Players] hate him, no one trusts him…he's only out for himself."

If you don’t have an NFL RedZone or Sunday Ticket package, on cable, you’ll get Pittsburgh-Indianapolis, Minnesota-Washington, and Dallas-Atlanta this sans-Eagles Sunday.
Have you missed the Flyers yet? They return to the ice tonight against the Chicago Blackhawks at 7pm. There will be a moment of silence for Roy Halladay.
Meanwhile Danick Martel has been crushing it for the Phantoms as he scored in his sixth straight game in Lehigh Valley’s win on Wednesday. Martel leads the AHL with 14 goals on the young season to help the Phantoms jump out to a 9-3-2 season.
In non-sports news…
A woman got each of her 20(!!) boyfriends to buy her a new iPhone 7s…the best part? She sold them and used a the money for a down payment on a house. Baller move.
AT&T has to make a decision, to keep CNN or buy Time Warner?
Facebook is testing a way to prevent your ex from posting revenge porn videos/photos of you. It’s solution? Upload a nude photo of yourself.
The State Trooper who was shot on Tuesday was ID’d yesterday.
Barack Obama was in Chicago on Wednesday to report for jury duty.
