On the Value of Peace
If your value for Peace And your fierceness to fight to protect it Perishes when it's not your own Peace at stake, You never held a true value for it to begin with. I cannot tell you what you value then. But it's not Peace, nor is it honorable. ~ J.
Musings resulting from the past year of devoted work, prayer And meditation with Ares, the divine Warrior and Protector.

supernatural was truly just. a fifteen year long experimental study looking into an audience's ability to empathise with the Narrative Scapegoat. the results? most people are still filled with the medieval urge to throw rotten fruit at the resident Freak in the town square.

barty deciding to take up baking and his friends not wanting to discourage his new hobby- spoiler, he is not meant to be a baker
barty: yeah, so just let me know how those taste, guys!
evan, trying not to gag: wow! you made these, b? they're so good!
regulus, with literal tears in his eyes: they're great, barty... can i see what recipe you used...?
dorcas, subtly spitting it out into a napkin: barty, you are getting so good!!
pandora, actually eating it to be polite: i'm so glad you've found something you like doing, barty!
barty: really? you guys really like them?
#then they took the cupcakes to the gryffindor common room and left them there for the poor innocent bystanders to eat them#barty tried baking pie and burnt the crust so brutally he was permanently banned from the kitchens#marauders#marauders era#slytherin skittles#regulus black#barty crouch jr#evan rosier#pandora#dorcas meadowes

“gambler” “doctor” just kiss already istg
Ngl one of my favorite things about Aventurine and Ratio’s relationship is the fact that they don’t ever call one another by their real name’s to faces, hell, Ratio doesn’t even call Aventurine “Aventurine” to him and Aventurine only seems to call him Ratio when he wants to tease him
The “gambler” “doctor” thing they have going on is one of the most endearing things ever and I wish people talked about it more because it’s a dynamic that’s unique to them in hsr, I don’t think any other characters refer to each other in such a manner, which makes it feel really special imo
Moreover; they don’t act like this with other people either, Ratio will refer to people by their names or by their jobs/titles, or with a “you”, something rarely reserved for Aventurine. Meanwhile Aventurine tends to use nicknames, but they are far more descriptive and impersonal, like “the emanator” for Acheron, or “my trailblazing friends,” as if he’s putting distance between them.
However, he doesn’t treat “doctor” like this, switching it up by calling him doc or using it three million times in a row or tossing in the occasional “professor” which is used in the name teasing manner, as if it is Ratio’s actual name.
And speak of the devil; he also uses “gambler” in a unique way as Ratio utilizes it no matter what his mood is. Passive, embarrassed like in Avens kit demo, angry like when he’s feigning offense during the 2.0 scene. Even in different contexts Ratio will pretty much only ever refer to him like this when they are together. He also attaches “damned” and “dear” (although I think this is EN only) onto the nickname, and he repeated the “damned” a lot, almost making “damned gamber” another nickname in itself. What’s interesting is that when they are apart he actually calls Aventurine “Aventurine”, or “that man/our man” which seems to be reserved for Ratio’s more affectionate moments for him, even if they are buried by layers of tsundere (like his voiceline for Aventurine).
Either way, I guess what I’m trying get at is that they refer to one another in a really unique manner and I love it and it’s lowkey really homoerotic because what do you mean you have established exlusive nicknames for one another 🤨
#hsr#honkai star rail#dr ratio#aventurine#aventio#We don’t talk about them having established nicknames for one another enough#ratiorine#raturine#LIKE WHO COOKED HERE THANK YOU#It actually makes me feral tho bc like#Imagine how others in universe see it#“Damned gambler-“ “hey you’re not much better doc”#‘Oh they are fucking aren’t they’- innocent? bystander#Like I’m sorry but it’s so deeply personal it makes me CRAZY RAAA

yeah. screenshot redraw but I made it Lucia and James, because of course
#I'm sick of looking at this drawing take it or leave it but I can't keep working on it. anyway#Behind The Scenes Fact Number 1: redrew this screenshot specifically because I wanted to draw lucia's hip fur peaking out like that (horny)#Behind The Scenes Fact Number 2: this idea originated because lucia won't stop making comparisons between herself and fight club (annoying)#let these facts show that james is an innocent bystander in this instance and cant help having a weird clown dog dictating his life rn. ok#fight club#actually dissociative#plural system#furry#fursona#val art#my sona#(<- kinda)

(revolution man; book 21)
vs
(city of the dead; book 49)
the doctor is literally a glue trap that fitz got stuck in. don't pull him out though because he likes it there
#this juxtaposition is driving me insane a little bit though#like the way sam views the doctor as a staunch upholder of. idk. ethics and morality#as a 'hero' essentially - as she puts it#while fitz perceives him more like an innocent. a bystander. an 'innocent'#if he does something bad it wasn't his fault/the bad thing wasnt even that bad really/the circumstances made him do it but regardless#the doctor is someone who needs protecting#the doctor is a honeyed pitcher plant that smells so so sweet that sam and fitz both fell hook line and sinker for i fear#oh well. many such cases.#doctor who#edas#fitz kreiner#sam jones#eighth doctor

#wink wink about stealing something he wants #maybe a band of outlaws holds up a train and when he and Simon come to confront them #he sees a girl shaking in her seat and decides she should come home with him
WHY WOULD YOU HIDE THIS IN THE TAGS????????
Soap says he’s taking her in for questioning and he’s very apologetic when Price asks him later on where the witness went. Must’ve given him the split at some point when his back was turned, maybe didn’t want to get involved with Johnny law. Price gives him a stern talking to and nothing more, since they’d captured most of the men from the train and they could just interrogate them. No need to involve some poor frightened girl.
Anyway that’s what Soap tells her when he comes back home to his cabin out in the middle of nowhere. No one for miles around. She doesn’t need to worry about what happened on the train and he’s not particularly interested in why she was there in the first place. Johnny takes very good care of the things he takes.
#ok Johnny law was a stroke of genius I love being me#actually I’m sort of in love w the idea that she was part of the gang of outlaws and was pretending to be an innocent bystander#but she really didn’t mean for Johnny to take her#he’ll be sooooooo amused when he finds that out down the line

I think my favorite part of being an American is every four years we have a little contest and no matter who you want to win that contest, and even if you don't participate in it at all, all the other Americans are like "I hate you. Go fuck yourself. Die."

gotta get this out of my system but the fact that nolan's instinct whenever he experiences Big Anger is to use his son as a punching bag and that it's actually become A Pattern at this point makes me wanna start clawing at the walls
#before last episode he's always had the excuse of training mark or teaching him a lesson#even if his anger made him punch harder he was still doing it to further a goal of some kind#but episode 4 was the first time mark literally did nothing but stand in the vicinity#an innocent bystander he could vent his frustrations on#it's so fucked up. also the way he choked mark harder when he started to talk back. GOD !!#nolan is on THIN ICE rn if he so much as gives a nasty LOOK to mark in the future i'm done with him#invincible spoilers#invincible#willow whispers
