Oh, by the way, Aldis Hodge is married and has a little girl. And that wife is puny because apparently "these women are ovaryacting" (if you're wondering where I got that last tidbit, his Sherri Sheppard's interview). He had a fiancee (his current wife) way before he started training for Hawkman, and one year after he started the 9bcollective (my interest in Aldis being about more of his others ventures, that is A. Hodge Ateliers, Hodge Productions, 9bcollective)

No capes/actors AU came to me via a dream and I have since been obsessing over it,,
I have so many ideas over it but my fav is currently that the Jasons are brothers because of the quick switch between seasons/robins and how they couldn’t use the same actor for older Jason so they just asked his older brother to be Red Hood Jason, Little Jason is way younger because they were trying to emphasize how small street kid Jason was
Part 1
#Behind the capes AU#dcu#batman#actors au#jason todd#bruce wayne#dc robin#red hood#there’s so many thoughts for this series#this one goes out for the Jason and Damian sibling truthers bc they’re bio siblings here#Big Jason was genuinely minding his business while his family acted only for the director to ambush him and ask if he’d like to act too#he thought maybe a small role but then boom baby Jason is dead#baby Jason loves his role in season 3 as a ghost/hallucination#big Jason is contemplating life until he gets to yell at his dad in front of cameras for fun#he loves it

Just because these people are in jail, doesn't mean they deserve to die. If we don't stop this thing, people are going to continue to die. We do this job wherever it takes us.

I wonder if I'm having my midlife crisis now. Maybe if you don't marry or have children, you just....jump ahead. Start worrying at 32 about the shape you'll leave behind, if any at all, and how that makes you feel about the cold and windless maw of eternity.
#admittedly I think of biochem as mysticism with math but.#my wholly unscientific take is that if you partner and have children your brain is too busy#trying to live with these new people; to ensure the various plates you're juggling for everyone don't smash#that it simply can't start reading whatever chemical code says ''oh btw you never solved The Meaning of Life.''#''maybe get on that. figure out why you exist.''#but you know what? if you don't have a family it's chekov's fucking gun.#and babe that shit has been hanging on the wall for two acts.#pew pew.#...............tbd probably when I'm less like this.

It's soooo crazy how when Thornton proposes and Margaret shoots him down like a dog in the street, she thinks to herself "I never liked him. I always acted totally indifferent to him. I never thought about myself and him." But then after they have no interaction with each other for a while after that, she thinks "I miss our antagonistic friendship :/" and then, after that, when she knows that he knows that she committed the unforgivable and shameful sin of Lying to a Police Officer she deadass thinks to herself "It seems so hard to lose him as a friend just when I had begun to feel his value." Like GIRL! The revisionism!!! The self deception! Is the friendship you had with Mr. Thornton in the room with us now?
#north and south#deeeeeeply obsessed rn with Margaret's lack of understanding of her own emotions#especially when she thinks that she totally knows how she thinks and feels and thinks that it's consistent.....#still formulating my opinion but I think she was actually deeply attracted to him and lowkey obsessed with him from the get-go#but that premise was to uncomfortable to consider for more than a pico second so she shoved it deep deep down#and proceeds to act chaotically and inconsistently towards him while thinking she's being very right and rational and consistent#tbf she's very busy trying to hold her family together through tragedy after tragedy using only elmer's glue and prayer...#no time for romantic revelations en esta economia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#Margaret Hale the woman that you are............#txt

FREE ME FROM THIS PRISON!!!!!! (<- thinking about dick’s pre-bruce family)
#so crazy that dick just got. cut off. from that family#bc it wasn’t really a family family#it was a business family#and so maybe they all liked each other and may have even loved a select few#but when your main crowd drawing act dies- well how do you financially recover from thar#how do you get your literal acts together after that traumatizing event#how do you go back to where it happened and look at the little boy left behind#what’s there to talk about other than the job and grief?#ough#dick grayson

Wille: but the monarchy is a privilege.
Simon: as your boyfriend and also someone who has eyes, is it?
#if i had the ear of the crown prince i would straight up be like make your first act as King be to tell everyone's the monarchy over#real life though i could never deal with being royalty adjacent don't know how simon has dealt with this for any length of time#i couldn't even handle an SO with a family business that has a double digit number of employees... the class difference would be too much#young royals

"Prince to you, not a brother."
#i'm going insaneeeee#cesare at first corrected alfonso when he called him 'brother' by clapping back with 'brother-in-law'#but when alfonso revealed that he's aware that cesare killed his //real// brother juan... he suddenly went all 'brother!!' at alfonso lol#the deliberate use of brother to manipulate him hoping to dissuade him from exposing the truth about juan's death. the strategy though!!#it's so funny help the borgia is truly a sitcom#that being said. i never liked how they juxtaposed juan with alfonso because alfonso lacked juan's charm wit and charisma#at least juan and cesare had great chemisty and dynamic thanks to david and francois!#like if anything...they both loved lucrezia in different ways and met their ends at the hands of cesare#alfonso loved lucrezia purely innocently and genuinely cared for her but he was too weak to be involved in the family's business#juan loved lu in his own twisted ways as he deeply loved her yet acted out of jealousy and pettiness she ended up hating him#juan borgia#cesare borgia#alfonso of aragon#the borgias#theborgiasedit#perioddramaedit#francois arnaud#periodedits#tvedit#by jen

Ben said she felt older than him?
Girl the book
#ask#anonymous#mb tea#sepinwall book#and fuck norris too#also it’s cut off but the way heinberg acts like her age is some brand new revelation for them all jesus christ#the way he mentions that she’d talk to js/ss about her interests in the early days god#two years later they don’t even tell her they’re firing her to her face#twenty years later they put out a book conveniently skipping over critical things#while also airing her private family business i just think they have never given a flying fuck about her#‘everybody now realizes she was super young’ are you fucking joking

I wish there were more black people who were into iwtv so I can talk about how Louis's class and race interests intersected
#iwtv#amc iwtv#iwtv 2022#its so crazy cus hes from a rich lightskin family in new orleans#like he says hed be a free man of color (not black) if not for jim crow#the intraracial dynamics of new orleans pre-1970 is so genuinely interesting to me and we never get to really get into them bc louis spends#all his time with white/nonblack people and when he is with his black daughter its different bc theyre so isolated from the great black com#like louis was absolutely in jack n jill as a kid. hed be in a blue vein society. hed be an alpha based off his name alone like#hes the black bourgeois class and its so crazy that people say hes middle class in fanworks like no babe. they had darkskin servants#i think it also stems from people relating blackness to poorness. ldpdl is not poor in any sense of the word#he inherented a literal plantation!!!! but because hes black people downplay his class interests (except for other black people)#yknow who really was poor? lestat! like eating syrup sandwiches with the lights and water cut off by the city poor#and yet people act like he grew up hyper rich in fanworks and its like... thats not what happened#you can talk about how jim crow and white supremacy squashed/manipulated the black elite class in nola while acknowledging louis' class#like they both came into the relationship with money (louis' money might have been shorter than lestats#but they still had money)#ldpdl#like i would even wager that louis family dont even consider themselves black like that#cus blackness is defined by whiteness and since louis spends all his time with white people bc of his business hes treated as and sees him-#self as black in a way that his family isnt. theyre only black when theyre made black if that makes sense#theyre black when white people are around

ohhh so I am the only one who calls it the brain penis scene. I see. Huh. No, no I get it.
but like… have we seen them???
#Idk I think it’s clear why they drew them as that shape#Instead of just having normal looking brains#It’s because Yoshiki’s anxiety surrounding the things they say is related to his role as a male in society and in his family#Yoshiki is being crushed under the weight of having a penis#And all the expectations that come with it. To be like his father; stay home; get married to a woman; take over the family business#What a man is supposed to look like and how they’re supposed to act#Like not to blue curtains this but I’m gonna blue curtains this and say that there’s a meaning behind almost every artistic decision#hikaru ga shinda natsu#the summer hikaru died#hgsn#My hgsn shit

help friends in need your brains. i’m writing a band au and ive got nico, jason, percy and thalia in a band together but i can’t decide on a band name. my two ideas so far are “sons of prophecy” or “the family business” but im not sure if i’m satisfied with those. any opinions or ideas would b appreciated <3 <3
#if i go with the family business i can work it into the backstory of the band#jason was always expected to take over his dads business and was very much forced to act and look a certain way growing up#so them naming the band the family business is jason’s fuck you to his dad like#yeah i’m carrying on with the family business#but anyways#lemme know if yall got opinions#the other band in this au is wills bc it’s a solangelo fic obvs#and his band is called young suns#which i am very happy with#pjo#nico di angelo#jason grace#thalia grace#percy jackson

Just looked on the older books for refs of Thea and
Boi Curse of the Cheese Pyramid is insane
It literally starts with G heading to work on time at 9, but William comes in like "BOI YOU'RE SPENDING TOO MUCH MONEY ON THE GAZETTE YOU HAVE TO CUT DOWN THE BUDGET" (Imagine this screamed directly into Geronimo's ear)
Obviously William's definition of "cut down the budget" is this
TW: Spoilers for Curse of the Cheese Pyramid, William behavior, do not click on if you don't want a spike in blood pressure
If you choose to turn away now, the following fume was just an intermission for finding this picture lmao
He pawned over everything (and I mean EVERYTHING) in Geronimo's office, from his desk to his armchair to his carpet to his book collection to his art collection, and replaced it all with a single plastic chair and desk ("All you need in an office is a desk and chair!")
He fired ALL THE STAFF and decided that only family members will be working for the paper (because family members don't need to be paid as much probably (if at all) when working for a family business-- they all share their finances with each other, anyway maybe (it's not clear what their salaries are gonna be (wanna bet G is paid minimum wage while Thea is paid 50% of the Gazette's monthly expenses after this clean sweep))). The only person spared from the firing spree was Shif T. Paws, the Gazette's sales manager, who apparently offered to work there for free.
He delegates all the work of the Gazette to four people-- G does all the office work (taking calls, building maintenance, writing, editing, printing, clientele stuff), Thea does all the interviews and field work stuff, Trap does all the cooking, and Benjamin is "William's personal assistant". Lord knows what that last position means for little Benji. (Okay reading ahead Benjamin seems fine, but he does say that William is "a bit pushy".)
He sends G out on a work holiday thing and he overworks the crap out of everyone, to the point where even Thea is sick of William's senile old-fashioned ass, and it seems that the Gazette was also going downhill because of this mouse furry ripoff Daniel Dancer. (To give a preview of what he did in the working perspective, he basically had Trap work seven days a week)
He was planning to have staff give use old newspaper instead of toilet paper (T&B expenses), make a 30-second time mechanism for the restrooms (to maximize manpower efficiency and possible humiliation for anyone going number 2), and was considering cutting all electricity to the building and just have staff work on typewriters "just like the old days".
This man's senile ass--
#geronimo stilton#rant#give up the toilet paper and use old newspapers instead#where are they in the filipino provinces lmao#william would fit right into an episode of extreme cheapskates#absolute nutjob#how is he not actually senile yet#imagine going so daniel dancer that even your favorite niece who you openly spoil can't stand your guts#shif t paws is mvp#man's playing 4d chess here#and all for his boss who he seems to be on pretty good terms with#i asked my parents a bit about william's relationship with the gazette (retired but still making absolute decisions for the company)#and uh turns out one of the family businesses on my family's chinese side works a similar way apparently#my great-uncle is retired technically and his son is his successor#but my great-uncle is still making decisions for the company that his son has to comply with#i guess it's a cultural thing? doesn't mean i like the way it sounds#i heard my uncle's starting to act more independently tho i think so good for him if he's actually doing that
