#the power of self-confidence

[nochance-noway]

satisfied that while he was able to confirm that something different _is_ going on, croc is not up to anything nefarious. and the meta he’s with appears capable of handling herself, giggling with delight at croc’s agreement. unlikely to be there by force.

eager to put distance between them, tim swiftly and silently creeps out of the sewer.

a distant part of his mind connects the uncanny feeling he had when he first dropped down with the realization that the sewer, does not smell any different than the ground above, where he stood now.

unrealistically, he acknowledged, it may actually smell better.

laughing, he moved on. normally, he might have investigated more, as is his nature. but he put it out of his mind for now. there were more productive things to do than worry about croc and his new meta friend

(he will however write a casual, but detailed report on what he witnessed and slip it into the batcomputer’s patrol logs. no need to be sloppy. and definitely no need to alert anyone that he went into the potentially dangerous sewers without notifying anyone prior)

tim admits that croc really does look bonita though

Imagine dani meeting killer croc.

She was just flying through gotham on her way to another adventure in a random country when she saw the giant reptilian entering a sewer cover.

Dani admits that maybe she shouldn't have followed the giant, but in her defence, she could easily defend herself and knock the croc unconscious if he tried anything.

Killer Croc had just gotten to a quarter of his territory when her heard a young female voice from behind him "P.U!" Turning quickly he let out a growl at the sight of the floating teen, covering her nose and smiling cheekily.

"Oh brother, this place stinks!" She giggled before flying towards him quickly and stopping in front of him, dodging his snapping jaw with a teasing smile."What's up, Croc?"

Killer croc hadn't made any appearances for about a week, not even a civilian report about spotting him.

The bat didn't think anything of it, yes it was a bit suspicious but there have been other times croc just took a break from being a menace to gotham for a while. Something was different about this time though, Tim felt it in his gut.

If he had to figure it out himself, so be it.

Now was the perfect time, dick was in bludhaven, jason was busy with another drug lord trying to make their way up the chain, Damian was benched for who knows how long and batman was following a lead to the joker.

Tim knew where croc frequented the most and fell into the sewers with a soft splash. Almost immediately, he heard chatter, one a soft female voice and the other a deep rasp that he recognised as killer Crocs.

Tim's heart sank to his stomach as he quickly and stealthy rushed to where the voices were coming from. The worst scenarios came to mind. Did Croc kidnap a girl? What was a girl doing in the sewers? Was she hurt?

Skidding to a stop, he pulled out a batarang and prepared to attack, stopping in his tracks at what he saw.

A white-haired female meta was puffing up a bow on the reptilian head, floating a few feat off the ground to do so before pulling out a mirror from god knows where and turning it to show his reflection.

His scales looked to be scrubbed clean, the tips of his claws painted a bubblegum pink and make-up done over his face. "Do you feel bonita?" The croc took the comically small mirror in-between two of his claws, careful not to accidently break it as he brought it close and scrutinised his appearance before nodding and growling out "I feel bonita"

The Art of Rest: 7 Invitations to Recharge Your Feminine Energy

Ah, rest. The very word evokes a sense of tranquility, a sigh of relief as we sink into a haven of rejuvenation. But in our busy lives, rest can often feel like a luxury we can't afford. Yet, true well-being hinges on this precious practice.

Just like a beautiful flower needs a variety of nurturing elements to bloom, we as women require different kinds of rest to flourish. Let's explore seven invitations to cultivate a deeper sense of rest and radiate your feminine energy from the inside out.

1. The Invitation to Physical Ease: Imagine yourself nestled in cozy blankets, the soft weight of sleep gently cradling your body. Physical rest is the foundation, allowing our muscles to mend and our energy to replenish. Grant yourself the gift of sufficient sleep, gentle stretches, or a warm bath – acts of kindness your body will surely thank you for.

2. The Invitation to Quiet Your Mind: Our thoughts can sometimes feel like a relentless current, pulling us in a million directions. Mental rest is about creating a sanctuary within. Curl up with a calming book, step outside for a mindful walk, or simply allow your breath to be your anchor. As your mind quiets, a sense of peace will naturally wash over you.

3. The Invitation to Sensory Solace: Dim the bright lights, put down the phone, and allow yourself to truly listen to the world around you. Sensory rest is a gentle retreat from the constant stimulation of modern life. Create a calming ambiance with soft music, or step outside and feel the earth beneath your bare feet. Let your senses savor the present moment.

4. The Invitation to Unleash Creativity: Sometimes, the most creative ideas spark when we allow ourselves to simply be. Creative rest isn't about forcing inspiration, but rather letting it flow freely. Engage in activities that bring you joy, like dancing to your favorite music, or simply daydreaming with a cup of tea.

5. The Invitation to Nurture Your Emotions: Just like delicate flowers, our emotions need tending to. Emotional rest is about creating a safe space to process your feelings, whether through journaling, spending time with a trusted friend, or simply allowing yourself to cry. By acknowledging your emotions, you create space for inner peace to blossom.

6. The Invitation to Embrace Solitude: While connection is vital, social rest allows us to fully recharge. Take an afternoon for yourself, curl up with a good book, or simply enjoy the quiet company of your own thoughts. In this solitude, you'll discover a renewed capacity for connection when you return to social spaces.

7. The Invitation to Connect with Something Bigger: Spiritual rest allows us to connect with something that transcends the everyday. This might involve spending time in nature, practicing a form of meditation, or simply reflecting on your values and purpose. By nurturing this connection, you'll find a deeper sense of peace and grounding.

By embracing these invitations to rest, you'll discover a wellspring of renewed energy, a blossoming of creativity, and a radiant inner glow that exemplifies the true essence of feminine energy. Remember, dear friend, rest is not a sign of weakness; it's the foundation for a life overflowing with grace and strength.

The Dark Feminine Archetypes

[turtleblogatlast]

[ cw: death mention / sibling death mention / isolation / ]

Thinking about how Leo’s portal and teleportation powers have both directly (and in one instance, indirectly) been the cause of him being separated from his brothers at least four times now.

There’s that time in Portal Jacked, where his inexperience leads to his portal being messed with and his brothers ending up in Tahiti.

There’s the Bad Timeline, where Leo’s portaling led to them losing the Key, therefore indirectly leading to the apocalypse and in turn, ending with Leo being the last of his brothers alive (though just for a few minutes.)

There’s him teleporting him and Krang into the Prison Dimension, cutting him off from his family so wholly that the only way to fix this was a literal mystic miracle.

Then there’s the comic, where Leo’s powers act up again and make him lose months of time completely isolated from everyone and everything he knows.

Just, looking at all of this, it’s like the universe gave him the powers of distance on purpose to test him (and his bros), literally seeing if they can overcome unimaginable space and still make it back together. Imagine if it doesn’t stop here, and Leo has to learn to either deal with the occasional complete isolation or deal with time travelers coming back to stop some terrible event his powers (whether directly or indirectly) have caused, events that always lead to separation in some way, shape, or form.

It’s worth noting, too, that his portals often led to accidental separation, but his teleportation was the one power of his that was used to isolate himself on purpose…and was also the one that in any other scenario would have been the most permanent.

I don't understand people who say that Zuko was a bad firebender. He's demonstrably not, even before he meets the dragons, he's shown to be a very good firebender. HE thinks he's not good enough, and sure, he's not a prodigy like Azula, but that doesn't mean he's a bad firebender. He clearly knows his stuff, and the implication is that he's only not as strong as he could be in the first couple of seasons because he's relying on anger and hatred to fuel his inner fire (man, that sounds cheesy!). Once he figures out a better, more sustainable source, he's a match for Azula. That means at his "weakest", he was still able to go toe-to-toe with a military trained, fully grown man and win. Zuko was never a bad firebender, he just didn't believe in himself (again...cheesy).

For you How do u improve self-concept?

Do routine "life audits" every month to check in with myself in all major areas of my life: physical & mental health, career, finances, relationships, and self-development, and compare these metrics to the goals I set for myself for the quarter. I'll either continue or adjust my daily/weekly habits and routines accordingly to help set myself up for success

Remain firm about my boundaries and priorities in life

Prioritize communicating in a clear, confident, and comprehensive in all of my written/conversational interactions

Allow myself to be honest about my genuine likes, dislikes, and the activities/people who either boost or deplete my energy or whether I need an aspect of my life to remain consistent/where I need to change it up

Continuously reading books, articles, social media conversations, consuming various artistic, fashion, beauty, and music/cultural content

Practice regular self-reflection to understand why certain situations either excite or disappoint me, what comments and conversations are most meaningful to me to better understand/refine my value system

Keep a "praise" folder of complementary feedback on client projects, compliments from loved ones/friends, social comments, etc. to maintain my self-belief and confidence as well as better understand my strength (and ways I can improve!)

Consistently refine my personal brand and maintain my styling/beauty routines to reflect the aura that feels most personally authentic and garners positive receptions from external sources (helps with networking/confidence, etc. – I'm only human, lol)

Jon: If you need a vessel so bad why don't you just become-

Elias: Because I'm not scared of them.

Jon: ......

Elias: I don't need your body, Jon. I need your fear. 😈

Meanwhile, Elias the Gaslight King in earlier seasons: Jon you know I'd never let anything bad happen to you, I'm only trying to help. We need to save the world together, isn't that what we're trying to achieve? Oh Jon, Jon, Jon, bad things are only happening because you do not trust me. Trust me, and we can save everyone. Don't you believe me?

Then it went the exact opposite with Peter and Martin.💀😂💔

Peter: I've got the perfect plan to beat Elias. Can you do what it takes to become the hero?

Martin: I'm going to save the world?

Peter: Yes, and it will be you and you alone. Do you trust me?

Martin: I trust you.

That same season 💀

Peter: You played me! 😳😭 You've been lying to me this entire time.

Martin: You lied first 🙄 and I knew it the instant you told me I'd save the world. I can't save the world. I've never saved anything in my entire life. I'm not important enough to be the hero.
