#they are goofballs your honor

[amarachno]

Every time Bruce pisses one of his kids off, they dramatically proclaim something along the lines of, “I hate you! Im going to stay with mom!!!” and then run off.

The first time it happens, Bruce nearly pisses himself because he takes it as some sort of suicidal ideation thing. He tries to go after whichever kid started this, probably Dick, but is unable to find them for whatever reason. He decides to look as Batman. Bruce absolutely sick with worry.

Selina Kyle put his kid in a catsuit.

As time goes on, more of his kids pull this little stunt and Bruce is a little less concerned. Every so often Catwoman is seen with her sidekick ‘Stray’ but every time Stray is makes an appearance they have a wildly different gender, height, and body type. It always the same costume design but in different sizes

Even Cass participated once! Bruce just sighed deeply and looked vaguely regretful. The only one who hadnt made an appearance as Stray had been Damian. Bruce really couldnt imagine Damian running off to be Stray. The kid still had his birth mother so there was no reason to.. become… stray…

Damian shows up as Stray. Instead of his sibling’s preferred stolen objects as a trophy? Selina let him keep a cat. The worst part? The cat’s name is Selina.

Jason as stray

I am curious about the particular tasks that felt too much for you, if you remember any on the spot.

I haven't seen the episode, where four people were playing tag, but that does isolate them..? Also Pearl's goose chase task was definitely lacking, but Lizzie finding it was fun. I did like Pearl's butler task, and the whole dragon fight. Cleo's pig task was funny, but painful. I probably forgot all the more boring ones, and well, the red name tasks were kinda lacking a lot and took more trouble than reward. With them repeating constantly and limiting players as to what they can do.

I liked most of wildcards, but it did feel like all the server was always running around in two big groups or there were huge people events, where multiple people have the same exact footage. The reaction to snails was mostly screaming, and even the superpowers, which were individual for every player, you could still watch one person and see most of the powers and the person's first reaction to it. It's just my pet peeve, because I genuinely want to watch other people's POVs, but I don't like rewatching things and it feels like a lot of other videos had similar things.

It's not actually that big of a problem and doesn't include all the POVs, mostly a big difference from the Secret Life, and other seasons had some sort of scheming or accidental things that happened as everyone were against everyone, so you couldn't know where the other hit will come from. Like, I'm talking about the 5Gs and Matren(?), and Family and Bamboozers and kinda Tuff guys(?), idk where Spanners were on the chart. But yeah, it felt sometimes like the server had 2 and a half teams. Not saying it's true, they all had inner betrayals and fights. More of a personal expression it made on me as I was watching.

I'm just curious what you liked about Wild Life, because a lot of people weren't as invested in it (even purely based on a few CC's view counts being less than usual for life series). And at the time of Secret Life coming out, there were a lot of people criticizing tasks and there was a problem of backsitting and insisting that someone actually succeeded or failed the task, because of one little thing. It did feel kinda shitty to hear people hate on something that affected you a lot. But I do get the points of how some things might have been not thought out properly, just like snails being maybe a tad too fast and preventing people from focusing on doing anything else. It feels frustrating, when your death feels so unwarranted, you weren't given a chance to fight back. If you starved to death, because you couldn't find the thing to eat it's better, like, you understand that you should have tried more things or didn't pay attention to your food and health bar.

Honestly, I don’t have a ton of opinions on many of the tasks themselves, sorry. I did think that they were sometimes imbalanced, such as Scott’s “I love you” task feeling WAY too easy, especially for someone like Scott, and that others were kind of unclear. One task that I wasn’t really a fan of was Etho’s weeping angel task, since it was pretty much impossible for Etho to know when someone was looking at him. It was a really fun idea; it just wasn’t a great task in practice when Etho also had to make an interesting video. There were lots of times when Etho moved, even if only a little bit, when he didn’t realize someone was looking at him or when someone very suddenly turned to look at him. It was all ruled as fine, of course, but the wording of the task meant that Etho technically failed the task, which just wouldn’t have felt fair in the context of the Life Series. I think I’m personally more forgiving about many of the less interesting tasks because I cannot for the life of me imagine coming up with I believe over 200 tasks, since there had to be a hard task prepared for each player in case everyone rerolled for a hard task in the same session, and manage to make them all interesting, possible, difficult enough, and socially focused. Even with the audience’s help, sorting through all of those suggestions weekly must have been stressful and difficult. However, my main concern is the fact that everyone had to keep their tasks secret from everyone unless otherwise specified, which kept the teams really divided. I do think that the gimmick was really cool. It was just unfortunate that we got such unique teams who often couldn’t really communicate as to what they planned to do that session or sometimes even how their teammates could help. During Secret Life, BigB teamed up with Tango, who he had never teamed with before, and Skizz, who he never really interacted with while Skizz was in less of a lackey role. Impulse and Scott had never teamed before, and I’m pretty sure that was Impulse’s first time teaming with someone outside of his typical social circle on a more intimately sized team. It was Gem’s first time as a main cast player, and Mumbo and Lizzie were main cast players for the first time in a while. For Lizzie, it wouldn’t have really mattered, because she was by herself. However, I would’ve liked to have seen the others be allowed to be a little more free with their teammates. I did really like Secret Life, especially because the ending had so many parallels to past seasons, but the social aspect was different in a way that didn’t click with my personal tastes quite as much as I might’ve liked, which is fine. I know other people really loved Secret Life, and I’m happy for them.

For me, Wild Life was fantastic, but I liked it so much out of personal taste, not necessarily because I thought it was perfect (though it is MY perfect baby. personally). Every episode other than the finale felt like the opening episode of a new series, where everyone’s just trying to figure out how to use the new gimmick to their advantage or at least how to survive it, and that was really exciting for me. I love that kind of stuff.

I hadn’t thought too much about it before, but I do see what you mean about people tending to be in large groups throughout each session. I can definitely understand how that would be frustrating for you, seeing as, yeah, a lot of the content in different POVs ended up being repetitive. This probably was one of the contributors to lower view counts for some creators. I really liked it, because it was nice to see everyone interacting in such big groups. I feel like we don’t get to see that too often, and it made following the series a little easier for me, who was really busy throughout Wild Life and just didn’t have much time to watch every episode every Saturday and had to spread them out throughout the week, which was like a little treat everyday! 🥰🍦 Of course, spacing the episodes out made them less repetitive to me, since I just had more time between episodes and a lot of other things going on between episodes.

Seeing the server divide itself into like two and a half teams was really funny to me. 😭 I understand how that might seem less interesting, but it made me laugh and cheer every time someone joined the Gs, even if it was only temporary. I just wanted to see how big of a team we could get. There were like 9 people allied with the Gs in total, excluding finale zombies of course, and I imagine them having awkward extended-family dinner together. I think that part of the reason why the alliances were kind of confusing in Wild Life was a distinct lack of communication or trust between some of the teams. The Spanners, the Tuff Guys, and InTheLittleMound (Lake?) in particular had difficulty communicating amongst themselves who they were allied with and who they were enemies with, especially when some episodes were particularly dense with action.

A lot of the deaths feeling unfair makes sense. I can totally see that. Plus, having a brand new thing every session is bound to cause some deaths just from not knowing what’s going on, especially if the session gimmick is inherently dangerous, such as the snails (even though they were SO CUTE and could never do wrong in my eyes). Pearl’s first death in particular was unfair in my eyes, just cause, though it made so much sense logistically, almost no one in the moment would’ve thought of the shrinking player hit box affecting shifting, such a trusted and well-worn mechanic in the vanilla game. However, I think that Grian giving everyone 6 lives, giving the fallen players a way to participate in some episodes, and providing a way for players to get their lives back during the early and middle sessions was a pretty good balance.

Another thing I liked about Wild Life was the teams. I know some people were upset by some of the teams, but the Gs were a long time coming anyway. It was nice to see Scott, Cleo, and Pearl finally get to be all on the same team, and Impulse (and BigB. And Etho. And eventually Ren. And technically Mumbo and Skizz at least at one point) was a fantastic addition. I enjoyed seeing Ren and Martyn together again, and isolated, at that. I know they’ve been wanting to spend more time together, and seeing them be silly and free made me smile. The Bamboozlers were obviously a fan favorite, and for good reason. I hadn’t realized how much fun Lizzie and Scar would be on the same team. The Spanners made me happy, because it was the first time Skizz wasn’t on a team with anyone in his typical Life Series circle in 5 seasons (4 if you exclude Double Life, since he wasn’t in it). I had also been hoping for Mumbo to team with Skizz just so that Mumbo could see up close that Scar actually does have competition amongst the players who tend to die faster than others. 😭 The Tuff Guys was fun for me because the DRAMA. Those three men could not get along for five seconds. The HORSE DRAMA. Tango having to deal with the HORSE DRAMA. That’s cinema to me. And then, of course, there was the Family. My goodness was it awesome to see Gem and Joel on a team together. They work so well together, and I’m so proud of them.

Wild Life kept the players on their toes every episode, and I have full faith that Grian would have made changes accordingly if someone involved was genuinely upset by something in their episode, especially with how he, Impulse, and Skizz were talking about how Grian checked in with the group after every single session. If the players had a lot of fun and feel well looked after in their social space, then I have a hard time complaining about it. Seeing them excited made me really happy. When Grian talked about how “Wild Life was like Christmas every week, because I got to show off these gifts I worked so hard on to all of my friends”, it really struck a chord with me. Working hard on something for your friends and seeing them react excitedly to it is one of my favorite feelings in the world. Going into each episode knowing that Grian felt that way is a huge part of what made Wild Life so wonderful to me.

It breaks my heart when I see people saying that Wild Life was boring or that the gimmicks were awful (not your criticisms, anon. I mean people who barely gave the season a chance and had nothing constructive to say). I know that Grian put so much work into each mechanic, often to the point where it would consume almost his whole week. He’s fine, I know, but I do wish that these almost mini-gimmicks that Grian and his wonderful team put so much love into had been received a little kinder, especially when they only had so much time to prepare for the more impromptu mechanics and still managed to craft some, in my opinion, pretty impressive results for the circumstances.

A lot of people’s criticisms concerning Wild Life are completely valid in my eyes. It just so happened to have hit a lot of my favorite tropes, and the parts that people take issue with just so happen to be things that I’m not personally too concerned with. Do I think it’s the best season ever? Not particularly. If I had to spend a lot of time considering what the best season is, I would probably say Limited Life, which was my favorite season before Wild Life. Wild Life just happens to be almost fine tuned to my taste, though I understand other people not liking it so much. Wild Life was a season of wonder and play and holding on to each other during uncertain times. That’s really important to me.

Thank you for asking!

"Sonic's Weird Napping Places"

Part 3 - Knuckles

Knuckles wasn't always a big fan of when his friends came to Angel Island. He did enjoy their company-- to some extent-- but there was always that nagging thought in the back of his mind that he could get distracted and lose track of the Master Emerald.

Today, which was a bright and sunny day, Sonic, Tails, and Amy had swung by to visit. From what Sonic had explained, they'd been out flying in the Tornado solely for fun when Tails had seen Angel Island on the radar and had the idea to pop by and say hello. Even though he wasn't the best at interacting with people, Knuckles had to admit that the idea of people wanting to see him made him happy. It helped curb the loneliness that sometimes struck him as he stood alone to guard.

Just to be safe, Knuckles had resorted to reclining atop the Master Emerald itself while Tails caught him up to speed on all they'd experienced since they'd last seen him. Amy talked about some recipes for sweets she'd discovered and promised to make and bring some the next time they popped by.

As they'd talked, Knuckles hadn't been looking at them; just listening. He was lying back on the Emerald, switching back and forth between cloud-gazing and resting his eyes. It was only about a half hour into the whole conversation that he realized he hadn't heard a single bit of input from Sonic. Given how talkative the dude was on his good days, AKA most days, that . . . was weird.

With a slight frown, Knuckles half sat up and glanced over at his companions, but Sonic was nowhere in sight. "Where'd Sonic go?" he demanded.

Tails shrugged. "He got bored and went for a run a few minutes ago."

Knuckles stared around the island for a moment, wondering if he should track the hedgehog down. He wasn't entirely comfortable with the idea of Sonic, who was notoriously reckless, racing around his island with all its delicate ruins and Ancient valuables. Sure, Sonic wasn't a thief as far as he knew, but still . . .

Seeming to read his mind, Tails quickly said, "Relax. He won't break or hurt anything. He doesn't do stuff like that."

At Knuckles' doubtful stare, the fox added, "You can still go check for yourself. Amy and I can watch the Emerald while you're gone."

Knuckles was startled to realize he didn't feel too worried about leaving his charge in the protection of these two younger ones. He knew what they were each capable of, and he was surprised to realize he trusted them.

"Thank you, Tails," he replied, attempting a warm smile, then hopped off the Emerald and hurried down the path in search of the hedgehog.

He knew the island like the back of his hand, so he wasn't expecting the search to take very long, but he still ended up surprised. Instead of tearing around the island like an uncontrolled missile, Sonic was half curled up right in the middle of the pathway through a field, fast asleep and snoring away.

"What are you doing?" Knuckles demanded. Sonic jumped a little and cracked one eye open, which lazily moved up to meet Knuckles' questioning stare.

"What does it look like?" Sonic rolled over slightly and yawned. "The sunshine feels good out here."

Knuckles really wasn't sure what to think of the situation. "You realize there are far better places to nap on this island, right?"

"Uh huh. Sure." The hedgehog's voice was thick with exhaustion as he rested his head back down on the warm stones. "But prob'ly not as good as thi . . ." Before he'd even properly finished his sentence, he was out like a light again.

With a tiny grin of amusement, Knuckles just shook his head and sighed, then turned and started making his way back to the Emerald and his other friends. Even though he didn't claim to know Sonic all that well, the hedgehog sometimes felt like a chaotic little brother to him. A weird chaotic little brother who liked to take naps in weird places.

Friendships could be weird, he decided, as he climbed back onto the Master Emerald and resumed talking with Tails and Amy. But he'd never experienced this feeling of happiness elsewhere. He didn't feel challenged or judged by this little bunch who called him their friend. Sonic was weird, they could all be weird. And that was perfectly fine.
