#vet league city

[codenamesazanka]

i've said this more than a few times before, but it continues to be true. the more I think about Shigaraki letting Spinner join the League of Villains, the funnier it gets. Everything about it - here's a guy Shigaraki has to vet to let into his supervillain battle group, and he's

A hikkikomori country boy from the middle of nowhere with zero criminal experience just somehow finding his way into a big city Villain hideout

showing up in low-budget cosplay based on a serial killer who recently went viral

(because the serial killer went viral)

having to reveal that in the fight against professional superpowered mercenaries, his power... is to climb walls

then asking for a giant sword made out of dozens of knives duct taped together as his main weapon. (They'd have to pay money for this.)

And Shigaraki said 'sure' to all of it. Is it any surprise he's dedicating his destruction of Mt. Fuji to Spinner? We all talk about Spinner's giant crush on Shigaraki, but i think Shigaraki is actually the one got a crush first, moment he first saw the guy.

Beach Episode (Part 19)

Previous | Masterpost | Next

Danny and Jason talked out their issues and dealt with it. Jason didn’t think he’d fuck up again, he’d felt so fucking bad, but Danny didn’t trust that. Which was fair, even if it hurt, he was going to have to prove that he meant it and could hold to it even when he was angry. He needed to get into therapy too, he’d been putting it off because he was scared, and protective of his identity, so much of the shit he’d seen and done was so hard to explain in a civilian situation.

But now that he was on slightly better terms with the JL he could prevail himself of one of their therapists. That ended up being the favour that Danny demanded from them was providing Jason with a therapist, one that wouldn’t be too judgmental of his… ‘methods’. They asked for Wonder Woman’s advice on that, which she was very happy to provide, relieved that Jason was facing up to his bad behaviour and taking steps to make it right. She’d been worried she was going to have to physically knock some sense into him.

The other favour that Danny asked for, not of the JL but from Jason, was not to complain about the family vacation that was being planned between Dick, Tim, Danny, and Alfred. Jason still didn’t love the idea but Danny gave him puppy dog eyes and insisted that it was needed to make him forgive Jason for his slip up. Necessary to make things right with his family and moving on, so he accepted it.

It took a lot of arranging and planning to get the family on vacation. They had to find a time everyone was available, find people they trusted to cover their patrols or cities, and of course agree on a destination. That was harder than you would expect, especially when Bruce got involved and tried to insist it should be in the deep woods somewhere and be a training exercise more than anything.

In the end he was shouted down and it was decided that they were going to go to a beach somewhere warm and sunny. Far enough away from any of their usual haunts that they wouldn’t feel the urge to work as long as there weren’t any natural disasters and Tim was kept off his ipad. Since it was a family vacation Danny invited Ellie and Dan too, though he wasn’t sure that Dan would come. Half of him hoped he wouldn’t because having Dan there was bound to be complicated, but they had decided to be family so Danny was going to put his money where his mouth was. 

Dan had been doing well anyway, he hadn’t missed any check ins and hadn’t caused any chaos in space. So he at least deserved an invite, whether he wanted to come or not. They had a check in two weeks before the trip so Danny brought it up with him then.

“A family vacation huh?” Dan asked, they were ‘sitting’ on a broken satellite which was still orbiting earth through inertia.

“Ya, God knows the Wayne's need it. And honestly so do I. Ellie will be coming too, and you're welcome too if you want to,” Danny said with a little shrug.

“And draw more attention from the GIW onto both of you?” Dan asked skeptically.

“Ya, but they already know Phantom is back and working with the Justice League now. I really don't think they're brave enough to touch us now. And if they try to, with all three of us together with the bats? Frankly I'd like to see them try. Maybe it would give the Justice League the push they need to really give them the smack down.” 

Dan snorted a little at Danny, he still didn't expect that ferocity from his younger self. “Ya I guess so,” he agreed with a crooked little smile.

“But if that was an excuse and you just don't want to come, that's fine. I don't want to push you, I just don't want you to feel left out since we decided we're family now,” Danny explained.

“Nah, I want to come. I want to meet my future brother in law,” Dan said with an absolutely feral smile.

“Oh dear,” Danny said faintly. “That doesn't sound good. Is it too late to uninvite you?” 

“Oh absolutely,” Dan cackled wickedly. “If you're going to be my little brother I should get to vet your boyfriend,” he teased, reaching over to ruffle Danny's hair and laughing when Danny smacked his hand away.

“Fine, you'll be a better judge than some people since I'm assuming we have the same opinions about violence?” He asked, glancing at Dan.

“I think I'm probably even more down for it then you are, but ya. Why?”

“Batman tried to stage an intervention about Jason hitting me. Trying to explain to them that I was totally fine with it and kinda liked it suuucked,” Danny groaned, flopping back dramatically as Dan laughed at him.

“Poor you,” Dan said, entirely unsympathetic. Danny flipped him off. “I'll probably give him shit about it.”

“Just don't scare him off. I really like this guy. If you pull anything I swear I'll spend the rest of our eternity making sure you never get a date!” 

“Sheesh, that's a serious threat kid! As long as he's not a wimp I won't scare him off. If I do scare him off he wasn’t a good fit for you in the first place,” Dan pointed out reasonably.

“Fine, I'll be keeping an eye on you though,” Danny warned.

“Of course you will, I'd expect nothing less after everything I've done,” Dan agreed dryly. “I'm surprised you're letting me be around your new found family at all.”

“Ya, well, you're one of my new found family as well.”

“Shit.”

“If you didn't want to be part of my found family you should have killed me when you had the chance!” 

“IS THAT A FUCKING MEME?!”

------------

All the Wayne’s could have asked their respective flying friends to give them a lift to the resort, but it had been decided no kryptonians were invited. They were trying to keep things to their family, though Dick was bringing Kori, that was fine they had been together off and on for years and were well settled together this time. She might as well be an in-law already. So she would be flying Dick in from Bludhaven, and everyone else was going to fly out from Gotham in the Waynes’ private jet. Well, the Waynes and Babs and Steph, who had taken a little more convincing to come, getting past their insistence they weren’t actually family being the trick. Thankfully the fact that the phantom siblings were coming too helped them see it wasn’t only a trip for the Waynes, and with different heroes and allies found to cover protecting Gotham they were bundled onto the private jet as well. 

 Which Danny and Ellie teased Bruce and Tim relentlessly about owning, Jason snickering in the background and egging on the two ghostly siblings in their teasing. They deserved it, no matter how much Bruce tried to defend that it was expected of him to have a private jet and he needed it for business! 

Teasing didn’t stop them from enjoying it though, Ellie chasing Tim around the isles, with Alfred chiding but not actually trying to stop them from having their fun and being kids for once.  Danny spent half the time exploring and stealing any snacks he found, and half the time murmuring in Jason’s ear about how they should steal the jet to join the mile high club. It was sweet torture and Jason did not want it to stop even as he shifted awkwardly and tried desperately to think unsexy thoughts so he wouldn’t get a boner surrounded by his family! Thank fuck Dick wasn’t here, the knowing smirks he’d be shooting the two of them would be too much.

It was a 16 hour flight, and once Ellie and Tim tired themselves out and fell asleep Bruce pulled out a sleep mask and settled in. Danny gave them this, it was much more comfortable to sleep in, and Jason and Danny slept soundly, at least until Ellie got bored and pounced on Danny. They phased out through the wall of the plane to go for a fly, racing the jet and flying loops around it until Ellie got tired and Danny had to help her back into the jet when she started to fall behind. 

Everyone else had started to wake up while they were gone, so by the time they got back it was just in time to have a family breakfast, and talk about what they were going to do once they landed. They had booked the entire top floor of the resort for privacy, which Danny thought was kind of overkill, but these were The Bats, they were incredibly security minded people, so he didn’t argue about it. Danny was mostly excited about swimming, this was a beach vacation after all!

Finally they landed, and grabbed as much of their stuff as they could from the plane before the bellhops could get them, as if all the staff hadn’t already been vetted by Babs. They were only staying for a week so they didn’t have so much they couldn’t reasonably carry it, and Danny suspected at least Tim had some stuff in his bags he would not want anyone else to see. He was going to keep an eye on the younger man to make sure that he hadn’t smuggled any work with him on vacation. 

They piled out of the plane, chattering excitedly about the vacation, Dick coming onto the plane to help Babs on the slightly too steep ramp from the plane. Kori was waiting for them on the tarmac with a warm smile, taking a couple of the heavier bag.

“We already picked out her room on the left side. I suspect Jason and Danny will want to be on the right, and the… single, and younger members of the family should be in the middle so we all have some place,” Kori suggested. 

“Kori!” Dick chided, though he clearly wasn’t actually shocked. Actually those who’d known the two of them for a while knew that was far more delicately put then she might have said it a couple years ago.

“What?” She said, blinking her bright green eyes innocently at Dick. “This is a romantic destination, and we love each other, we are only doing what is surely expected of a loving romantic union. I doubt your father wants to hear-”

“YES thank you Kori you’re right. We’ll make sure you and Dick, and Jason and Danny have your privacy,” Bruce promised.

Before the conversation could continue Ellie shrieked and dropped her bags, taking off running away from the group. It startled everyone, but hackles smoothed immediately when they spotted Dan, strolling across the lot to meet her at a more casual pace. He rolled his eyes but there was a smile on his face as he bent down to scoop Ellie up before she could headbutt him in the gut at full sprint. He was wearing regular clothes, a black shirt and pants with white stripes down the side, and his fiery hair had been gathered into a low ponytail. He still looked obviously inhuman with his grey-green skin and red eyes, but there were all sorts of meta-humans around and he didn’t look like a supervillain at least. 

Ellie scrambled from in his arms to onto his shoulders as he grumbled at her without any real heat behind it. He shrugged his shoulders, making her squeak and hold on tight as he strolled over to the rest of the group.

“I’m glad you could make it,” Danny said, approaching Dan and patting his arm.

“Hey I told you I would,” Dan said ruffling Danny’s hair and ignoring the way the humans around them shifted nervously. Danny was either ignoring it as well or hadn’t noticed the nerves.

“I don’t believe we’ve met!” Kori said cheerfully, holding out her hand to shake. 

“Hey, I’m Dan. I’m these two’s big brother, by technicality,” Dan joked, gesturing to Danny and Ellie with his free hand, shaking her hand and squeezing too hard. He looked impressed when her smile only brightened and she squeezed back just as hard. “And who might you be?”

“I’m Kori, I’m Dick’s partner,” She said brightly. “You seem strong, we should spar some time soon.”

“I’d like that,” Dan agreed with a shark's grin. Grunting and dropping the smile when Danny elbowed him in the side. 

“Behave,” Danny grumbled at him, getting a growl and an eye roll in return, before his gaze landed on Jason. 

“And you must be Danny’s boyfriend huh?” He asked, letting go of Kori’s hand and offering it to Jason.

“Ya, I am. It’s nice to meet you. He warned me about you,” Jason said, standing up straight and shaking Dan’s hand firmly, trying not to wince when he squeezed it far too tightly. 

“I’m sure he did. I warned me about messing with you too,” Dan cackled, letting go of Jason’s hand before it could crack and shoving his hands in his pockets. 

“Right, well now that everyone’s met each other let’s head inside hm?” Bruce interrupted trying to shoo them all towards the door. They were starting to attract attention standing out in the open like this. “We should pick out our rooms and get comfortable.”

“Ellie, how do you feel about sharing a room with Dan?” Danny asked, glancing up at his young clone, still perched on Dan’s broad shoulders. 

“I don’t need a babysitter!” Both Dan, and Ellie said at the same time before looking at each other, startled as Danny laughed.

“You’d both be absolutely terrible babysitters,” He said fondly. He expected them to get into a good deal of chaos together, but he did think that Ellie would keep Dan from killing anyone, or get Danny if things got completely out of control. 

“Fine, we’ll share,” Dan sighed, and Ellie nodded. 

“Thanks guys,” Danny said, smiling at his siblings before grabbing Jason’s hand and tugging him towards the door. “Come on, let’s go find the most extravagant room we can!”

--------------

There was a bit of a scramble for rooms, not that there weren’t plenty of rooms, but Step, Dick, and Tim were petty and silly and argued over the ‘best’ rooms. And of course once they started Ellie had to get in on the action. Danny and Jason left the younger ones (and Dick) to their squabbling and went to pick out their own room as far away from the rest as they could manage. They found a lovely one with an airy, beachy theme and a window seat looking out onto the ocean.

“It’s beautiful here,” Danny said, sitting down on the padded bench in front of the window and making grabby hands at Jason.

“Is it,” Jason chuckled, going to sit with Danny, who practically dived into Jason’s arms. “I wouldn’t want to live in a place like this, but it is very nice to visit.”

“Of course you wouldn’t, you're a Gothemite and a bat! If it’s not a little close, dark, or gloomy you stand out like a sore thumb,” Danny teased, nuzzling against the underside of Jason’s jaw, who laughed along. “I like our home and our nest though, it’s cozy,” Danny added before Jason could get insecure about it.

“Me too, do you want to unpack first or go exploring?” Jason asked softly.

“As much as I want to go exploring, I think we had better unpack before anyone tries to kick us out of our room by throwing out our bags,” Danny said with a put upon sigh, going nearly boneless against Jason’s chest. 

“You know you’re going to have to get up for us to unpack, right?”

“Noooo!”

-----------

The resort really was beautiful, and since they’d rented an entire floor it wasn’t as crowded as they were sure it usually was. Danny had never been to a place like this and he intended to make the most of it, all of it! The beach, the spa, and the incredibly fucking fancy restaurant and bar where he and Jason could actually drink since the Maldieves actually had a reasonable drinking age! 

Over the course of the week they got couples messages, got so drunk they had to lean on each other to get back to their room, and ordered far too much room service. But undoubtedly the beach was absolutely the main attraction. They spent a lot of time there, to the point Danny got a tan, and Jason was very glad he didn’t burn like Bruce did, who spent most of the second day laying on his stomach in bed with Alfred scolding him about not refreshing his sunscreen after swimming. On the second day Danny remembered he didn’t strictly have to breathe! And Jason spent the rest of the day sitting on the beach while Danny (and Ellie or Dan in turns) disappeared into the water for hours and came back to tell him about everything they saw.

On the third day Jason rented some scuba equipment so he could go down with his boyfriend and see all the wonders he’d been so excited about. At least the ones in shallower waters, he couldn’t follow Danny deeper where the pressure got too much, when Danny realized that he stuck to the shallower areas. By the time they got back to shore Jason was exhausted and very ready for supper, which was a family affair every night of the trip. It was really nice, since Alfred didn’t have to cook he could actually join them and he kept it from being too rowdy. 

They had to push tables together to accommodate the whole family, but the Waynes had more than enough money to get away with it and establish an extra long table for themselves for the entire week of their stay. They tended to eat late, which worked too because there were fewer people for them to disturb with their chatter and chaos, and the eleven of them were usually more than enough for the kitchen to contend with since most of them were big eaters. The dinners were really nice, it didn’t have the baggage of being at the manor, and though they’d met up in smaller groups all of them (minus Kate who had opted out) had never been in the same place. 

It was the perfect opportunity for… something, something that Dick unfortunately beat Jason too on the third night, during dessert when he got up from the table, and got down on one knee in front of Kori. Silence fell over the entire restaurant as Jason bit back a groan and quickly readjusted his expectations to be happy for his brother. 

“Koriand'r, you and I have been together for a long time, and we’ve been through a lot of shit. But never have I not been happy you were there with me for it. You’ve made all of it easier by letting me be by your side, and I hope you’ll let me stick by you for the rest of our lives. Will you marry me?” 

“Yes!” Kori yelped, holding out her hand and letting him put the ring on her finger before she grabbed his wrist and his collar and hauled him in for a passionate kiss as the family cheered and everyone around clapped politely. “You’ll have to come with me to pick out a ring for you as well My Love,” Kori told him warmly while Dick grinned like an idiot. 

“Congratulations!” Steph cheered, practically leaping over the table to tackle both of them as Bruce ordered a few bottles of the best champagne the resort could offer and everyone else lined up to congratulate them as well. Besides Dan, who was being ignored as he grumbled in the corner about how ostentatious and cliche the whole thing was. 

Hey, maybe if Danny secretly shared some of those thoughts Jason had dodged a bullet not being able to propose on this trip. He’d come up with a new plan, one Danny might even like better.

[thevoidstaredback]

Week two started off with the RSVPs coming in like a flood. Every single One Percenter that had been invited had accepted the invitation, stating that they'd be there. The heroes that had been invited had yet to respond, though they won't be marked as 'not coming' until the weeks end.

Week Two

Diana had been staring at the invitation for quite some time. She'd apparently been invited to a private Wayne Gala, a charity to raise funds to donate to the Justice League. It was an amusing premis, seeing as Batman somehow funded most of what they did when the U.S. Government fell short, but then she wondered if this was how he did it.

It made sense. He's one man, so he shouldn't have the money to fund the heroes of the world out of pocket. Then again, she didn't know anything about him. The tour of the Bat Cave - a hilarious name, by the way - only proved that point further.

The charity gala is a private event, tighter security than normal, invitations sent out only four weeks in advance, invitation check at the door, no press. But, why was she invited? By random, apparently.

She doubted the odds. 'Random' isn't a thing in Gotham.

Batman probably had something to do with this.

***

Clark was having a hard time believing what he was seeing. He and Lois, as well as Kon and Jon, had been invited to a Wayne Gala? Not even as press. They were going to be actual guests? It was so weird.

When he showed Lois, she'd spent a solid thirty minutes scrutinizing the thing, looking for any sign it was a fake. When she saw the seal, she'd laughed so hard that she fell over, then declared that it was real and that they were going.

He didn't get the joke. She didn't explain.

***

Getting invitations to galas wasn't a new thing for Oliver. He went to at least one in every major city every year. But, getting an invitation to a Wayne Gala that he'd never heard about before? That was a whole new surprise.

Dinah was also surprised by the invitation, but happy to attend. The information on the back said it was a semi-formal dress, and that the theme was Hero.

Ironic.

A charity gala for the Justice League hosted by Gotham's White Prince. Did Batman know anything about this? Probably. He seems to know everything. Honestly, Oliver wouldn't be surprised if the man knew who Green Arrow was behind the mask.

Actually, is Batman even human? He claims he is, and so does Nightwing and Robin, but then they turn around and do things that are decidedly not human-like.

But, who is he to judge?

Dinah was already picking out their outfits. She was going to theme herself after Green Arrow, so Oliver thought it fair to theme his own outfit after Black Canary.

Roy would be laughing his ass off at them. Maybe they could convince him to come with them? The invitation said to invite family... He should have him bring Lian, too. Brucie won't mind. He's a family man, after all.

Actually, that's probably exactly why the invite addresses the Queen Family, instead of just Oliver Queen and his plus one.

Also, why does Bruce want him to give a speech? Yeah, he'll do it, and yeah, he's a better public speaker than Bruce, but why? Was it a spur of the moment thing? Probably.

***

Hal stared at the paper suspiciously. Not once had he been to a fancy gala like a Wayne Gala. In fact, the fanciest party he'd been to were the parties thrown for the military vets.

Okay, so, bad example. Those parties are actually pretty fancy and fairly private, but still! A One Percent Party? Why would Hal get invited to one of those? He's perfectly middle-class, thank you very much.

He toyed with the thought of not going, the idea of Batman catching him in Gotham making him even more reluctant to go, but his curiosity was getting the better of him.

What was it like at one of these things? Would Batman really bust in and ruin the thing if he caught wind of Hal being there? What was Gotham's One Percent like? What was the Wayne Family like?

All very good questions that he wanted answers to.

He filled out the RSVP. He doesn't have anyone to bring with him, but maybe he could ask another hero? Maybe the other Green Lanterns will wanna be there. He's sure the Waynes won't mind. What'll they do, throw him out?

Well....they might, but they probably won't. That'll look bad.

He's got some calls to make before sending this back.

***

Wally had been the one to find the invitation. He'd been over to visit and stopped to bring the mail in for Iris. He knew that crest like the back of his hand because Dick's the one who introduced it to him.

That's right, he knows who Nightwing is. And he is very upset that he was left out of what's obviously a prank on the Justice League! He was gonna have to give his bestie a call. Tsk.

"We're going to this!" he declared loudly the second the door closed behind him.

"What is it?" Bart asked, meeting him in the entryway.

Wally was quick to hide the seal in his pocket. A room full of geniuses would figure it out in a second and he wanted to see this through completely. "Wayne charity gala in Gotham."

"Oh?" Iris asked from her place on the couch, putting her book down. Wally handed her the mail. "You just want to see Nightwing."

His grin was goofy. "Yeah, but don't go telling people that."

Barry plucked the invitation from his hands. "'Charity for Justice'," he read, "'for Justice League and associates'." He flipped it over. "It's addressed to the whole family, though we'll need to RSVP."

Bart set off in a fast repeat of "Please, please, please!" on 3x speed while Barry and Iris shared a silent conversation. Wally's grin grew. He knew they'd say yes.

***

Arthur didn't know how to react. Well, he did, but it was weird. He's a lighthouse keeper. Why's he getting invitations to some fancy party? He'd understand if he got the invite as Aquaman, but as Arthur? It's so weird.

He was going to accept. Mera was gonna make him accept. Probably on the grounds of 'just because'. But she's scary, so he's not gonna say no. At least they can bring Andy? Probably a bad decision. Like, a really bad decision.

Who'd watch over Atlantis while they were gone, though? Someone's gonna have to stay behind!

Mera won't stand for that.

Kaldur'ahm. They'll bring Kaldur with them. He'll be responsible enough to keep Andy in check when she inevitably slips away.

This is a bad idea.

He's going to regret this.

He sends off the RSVP anyway.

[forwards-beckon-rebound]

batfam and what canadian university i’m assigning them

dick - western

i live for frat boy dick

but like not the creepy frat boys

i think canadian greek life is significantly more chill, definitely a lot of drinking though

like i can already imagine him doing a keg stand

not a permanent frat boy ofc but i can kinda see him going a little wild during uni

like he’s definitely sociable and getting invited to all of the parties

but like the academics aren’t bad too so i think he’d have fun there

the campus is pretty big so you need to take the bus to different areas and it always comes late

you just know dick is ditching the bus and straight up booking it, basically doing parkour

jason - uoft

is it kind of a soulless commuter school where it’s practically impossible to make friends unless you live on res in an incredibly expensive city? yes

HOWEVER it also has the largest academic library system in the country and has so many rare books

i just know the lit nerd in him would like it

i think he would also just enjoy going to a large uni with a lot of course selections, so he can choose courses that actually sound interesting to him

he just loves learning for the sake of learning (remember guys, he’s the robin who actually liked going to school) and i think he would appreciate having so many resources at his fingertips, even if the uni community isn’t that good

has a reputation for being a really difficult school

this nerd would somehow make it work

everybody who goes here already needs therapy so he’d fit right in

also i can’t really see him outside of a city, like bro would see the toronto crime (the stabbings and fires on the ttc alone are enough to keep him busy) and be like i can fix it

literally begging him to fix toronto so i can go downtown without the ttc shutting down half of line 2 for no reason

bro would not appreciate the housing though i guess

like why is he paying $2k a month for an apartment that’s only slightly better than the one he grew up in in crime alley

and he has roommates (hear me out him and the outlaws are roommates OR alternatively the most annoying stereotypical toronto men you’ve ever seen and he tries so hard not to bash his head into the wall because of them)

tim - waterloo

listen, i don’t think tim would want to go

like i don’t think uni would teach him anything be can’t figure out on his own

BUT if he had to go, i think waterloo would probably be good for their coop program

also it’s like THE asian school and i feel like most of the fandom has basically decided he’s asian anyways

erm but idk he also dropped out of high school so if he got his ossd maybe he can go to tmu or york

feel like they have the most prodigies too in terms of comp sci and eng so he’d fit right in (but unlike them he’d actually shower)

damian - mcgill

bro is not old enough to even be thinking about uni tbh

i feel like he’d go to an ivy league though, like one of the historic “real” ones

but if he must stay in canada i feel like it would be mcgill (also bc everybody i know at mcgill wants to go to harvard and that’s probably where he’d rather be)

they’ve definitely got a lot of history, they’re part of the old four, and i think he would appreciate montreal (probably would not consider any of the small towns and would think toronto is too trashy and vancouver is rainy)

would refuse to live on campus (fair enough dorms make me depressed too) and probably get a place in westmount (iykyk)

but he’s definitely going to either university of guelph or université de montréal for their vet school

i feel like he would already know french as a kid so the language barrier isn’t even a problem (wish that were me)

my father is a retired doctor of internal medicine. He's very very intelligent, and so intense about it he might also be on the spectrum.

If you mention anything that gets his interest in any way, he will either info dump a deep dive, or turn it into a weird, like, shark tank inquisition.

So for example, if you mention that you, whatever, you like the sandwiches at the shop on Broadway, in which case he's likely to tell you the history of the building and the damage it sustained in the storm of whatever year and how the guy they hired to fix it ripped them off and who the last 5 owners of the business were and what their menus were and how they had to petition the city council to increase their sign height but that owner's son had been in school with the son of one of the city council members so...

OR, you might idly mention that you were thinking about, ikd, say, getting a horse. But "thinking about" means something different to him, so he'll spend the next however long asking you

"What kind of horse, why that kind of horse, where will you keep it, oh you'd have to house it in a barn that rents stalls to private horse owners, how much does that cost, how much do those costs vary from barn to barn, is there a contract, what is the duration of a typical contract with a barn for housing your horse, is it a new contract every year or what, does that include food, if it does include food do you have any control over what food you feed your horse what if you wanted to switch to a certain food, how much does it cost to feed a horse each month if you are doing it on your own dime, what are the food options and their price points, what's better about the more expensive option, how much will you expect to spend on vet bills each month, will you be getting horse health insurance, does the barn have an in-house vet, is there a horse trainer, what will you be using your horse for, how many times a month will you actually be riding your horse, is the shoeing included or do you pay out of pocket for shoeing your horse, how often does a horse get new horse shoes, does that change according to how much exercise the horse does, did you grow up riding horses, what are the details of your horse riding experience, what are your plans for if the horse...."

i mean, he'll turn anything into an ivy league final exam. Like when he asks you a question and you give him an answer he's likely to request your source. In many ways it was a total nightmare being raised by him.

ANYWAY the point is, i spent the last two weeks preparing a preliminary business plan, and i just now told him i quit my job to go into business for myself, and he spent over an hour grilling me

and for the first time in my life when talking to him about any plans of mine, i actually had legitimate real-world answers prepared for almost everything he asked.

i've never experienced this. It's honestly better than drugs

[foreverisntenough]

Bruh give salah his money actually give him a blank papper and let him write how much he wants

The WAY i fumed over the article that came out today that is imo a very clear agenda being pushed by FSG essentially blaming T, Virgil, and Mo for dragging this out, their demands, and citing questionable desire to stay at the club...

I actually cannot with this whole thing. It falls on ownership.

If you want a rant....

Ahead of Klopp's announcement (which you're lying if you think the owners didn't know he was leaving before the players) with under two years left on those three contracts they should've been sorted, they let this fall apart... they let three of the clubs biggest players arguably ever, leave for free...

Sorry this fucking riles me up because don't blame player's greed or lacking loyalty... FSG has been greedy and exploited their loyalty to the club. You put them in a position to have to sacrifice their loyalty in order to be treated like ever other player in the country, despite being best in the world at their positions. All they've done is won everything for your club, devote 8,9 years of their lives scrapping by seasons while all FSG did was give them Nat Phillips and Rhys Williams as support. Fuck them.

Trent Alexander-Arnold makes 180k a week.... that's 9.4M a year from a club that just had a record commercial revenue and got 83M alone for CL group play. And while I know very well we have never been a big money club, that is not how we operate, and i'll be honest he knows that too, BUT the game has changed... owners at rival clubs have changed. I don't want to be city or chelsea spending millions on players we haven't vetted and aren't built for our club... but you can't tell three of the best players itw to sit on their hands while the rest of the SPORT is getting paid accordingly, factoring in their respective contributions to their clubs. LFC have two players in the ToTY 11. Two! And yet you still won't pay them?

Also, I know scouse not english very well - but you can't tell me it is good for an ENGLISH premier league club to not have a single player on the England international team. Trent is the only one that makes it in. Joey, Curtis, Jarelll, they won't make the world cup. I just don't understand...

anyways, sorry.... that was a lot.

I think Damian should end up adopting the various pigeons of Gotham.

Like they were literally bred to be domesticated pets/working animals in the case of messenger pigeons. Here's some thoughts about it:

Damian started out with one particular pigeon who had a nicked wing and couldn't fly away from a confrontation with the villain of the week. He probably saw domesticated pigeons/messengers in the league (an animal subtle enough to carry a small message/drop and found in virtually every city in the world) and we know he's soft for injured/abandoned animals.

He takes the birb in and helps it heal and tries to check it over for various signs of ownership. He finds none, brings it into the vet (who is Very Familiar with Damian and his pets) thinking that they'd know how to find the owners and that's how he finds out that pigeons were cast out by society at large after being a point of pride for centuries.

The bird likes Damian and Damian leaves his window open (even in winter) for it to visit after it's all healed up. Damian purchases some ownership bands and pays the license fee out of his allowance to make sure the bird will be okay.

Birdy 1 comes back to the manor at least once a week and occasionally finds Damian on patrol with others, Damian decides to name it Lancelot (loyal friend, plus he just started reading Arthurian legends).

Lancelot starts showing up with it's broodmate and Damian names the broodmate Guinevere, bands and registers her and then their hatchlings who he helps hand-raise from his windowsill (where they built their nest)

He names every single pigeon that starts showing up on patrols after Arthurian legend characters (he runs out fairly quickly) and registers all of them.

Eventually it raises some red flags about possible illegal breeding operations and Jim ends up having to investigate and its literally the first time any of the bats are made aware of Damian's growing pigeon army.

Gordon of course goes back with a "he's a rich kid who loves animals and got incredibly passionate about how horrible it is that humanity turned our backs on such wonderful creatures." The thing under a sheet on his desk coos and the person he's talking to asks what it is.

Damian guilted Gordon into adopting a lone pigeon who needs more care (bc not bonded to a mate or to the flock) and you know, Babs is out on her own now and Gordon's an empty nester and pigeons are really quite affectionate-

Jason also ends up with a pigeon. So does Tim. Dick avoids it because he refuses to move back to Gotham from Blud and Damian refuses to let any pigeons experience the uprooting he had.

Anyways I love pigeons and the idea that they're "dirty" is stupid and they deserve to be taken care of k bye.

Hello!! Hyper specific to my own niche interest but thoughts on Jack Kelly and Jay Gatsby as similar characters. Big one I found was the influence of the mythic west

you!! i like the way you think!! here goes nothing:

jay was based off a ww1 vet that fitzgerald knew irl (met in new york during the jazz age.) jay is, as i'm sure you know, a bit of a poster child for the american dream (or alternatively, heralded as a false prophet of the american dream). his parents are immigrants and as an adult, jay faces a bit of xenophobic sentiment from tom simply because he has an obscure, poor background. he comes from farm life and was dissatisfied with it, preferring to travel the world. he also fell in love with an upper-class girl far, far out of his league.

jack was based off a kid named jack sullivan and also the famous kid blink. he's also a young man whose personality is centered around the mythic west -- only this time, it's an idealized, romanticized version of it. his parents are also likely immigrants, and he's born into poverty. jack comes from big city life and is dissatisfied with it, preferring to travel the world. he also fell in love with a (very!) upper-class girl who he really, socially speaking, had no business being with. (katherine is present in this read.) if i had to guess, i'd say he's disillusioned with the american dream, because what good has dreaming ever done him? but then again, i could likely say jay shares that sentiment, though the external outcomes from that might be wildly different. ex: jay becomes rich, while jack, ostensibly, stays poor.

both of them throw themselves into working for what they want and who they want to be. both try to recreate themselves, proving something not just to themselves but to the ones they love, and both are dissatisfied -- even somewhat ashamed -- of their backgrounds and upbringing. i think jay and jack both struggle with a sense of control over their environment, needing to find outlets to say what they feel like they can't express aloud; jay builds himself a mansion across the bay from daisy, and jack pours himself into his artwork (that, or poring over dime-novel cowboy stories, or both.) both of them probably have some degree of alexithymia, if i'm remembering jay's character correctly. both of them idealize the futures that they create for themselves, enamored by the possibilities, refusing to be tethered to the harsh, bleak realities of the lives they are living. and both of them are down so bad for the girls they love, even when the actual attaining and realization of these particular dreams seems impossible.

[bcolfanfic]

thinking abt my sweetie pie, young vets au!ken. his job was Planes...and what a good job he did at Planes with the boys in bagram. came back to the states after the war and decided to move to nyc for a change of pace.

tried to stick with what he knew and do the mechanic thing, quickly discovered it wasn't the same anymore and kinda hated it.

met up with curt when he remembered he was also living in the city. didn't hate that. at all.

kinda became the "guy that is on a new side quest every week" friend trying to find something to do when he realized mechanics had lost the spark for him.

tried a lot of things- florist, working in a food truck, barista, working in IT, selling knives. eventually found his groove again coaching a kids soccer league.

kenny is good with kids, the kids love him right back and he likes soccer so it works out.

kenny also likes curt.

a lot.

he likes him more and more every time they hang out in curt's little studio apartment or curt has him tag along with him to the gym he's a personal trainer at.

and kenny isn't out to *anyone* except for curt, not even his parents- hell, he's barley out to himself.

but he figures that's a problem for future kenny. *right now* his problem is finding as much free time as he can to sit in curt's lap and be cute. (:

not like curt is complaining.

Since the fall of the Mauville Game Corner, Lucy co-owns a (not-so) secret GAMBLING DEN in the large lower floors of Lilycove City's defunct motel space. She shares ownership with the Game Corner's previous owner (who spends all his time in Mauville Heights) and the Trick Master (who is in serious debt and mostly stays at home.)

Many of the Game Corner's slots and tables were moved down here following Mauville's new gambling restrictions. There's also an expansive bar and lounge area, designed for idle chit-chat and privacy. (The Trick Master redesigned a majority of the space--and it looks pretty good, actually. He just needed Lucy to help rein in that wild imagination.)

The gambling den is extremely exclusive, and runs on a tight-lipped password system for entry. Lucy runs a tight ship down here--it doesn't matter what your past or present affiliations are, just don't cause any trouble once you're inside. No battling. No being obnoxious. No promotions. Ex-grunts, delinquents, even some League members and off-duty law enforcement have been spotted in the den. (Anybody who can't play by the rules or pass ID check will be unceremoniously kicked out and barred from entering again.)

As its most involved patron/visitor when she's not atop the Pike, Lucy rules this space--what she says, goes. She can usually be found bartending, gaming at a table, or helping to vet new arrivals.

The den is unnamed at the moment. Helps with the secrecy.

This is my very first post on Tumblr. I wanted to start off my page by introducing you to my fur baby, who has since crossed the rainbow bridge. I wanted to spread awareness about the potential disease that took his life. Note that I am not a veterinarian and the diagnosis was never confirmed.

On September 2nd, 2024, I met Geralt at my uncle’s house while we were drafting for our fantasy football league. I have three cats, a dog, and a turtle. I wasn’t originally going to take this little guy home. However, you see the cute pic of him snuggled up? That’s him on my chest the day we met, he came to me on his own volition. He climbed onto my chest and fell right asleep, in that moment, I knew he was meant to be my baby.

I had Geralt for ten days.

On September 12th, it was a normal morning. He slept with me as usual, he screamed at me for not giving him attention. He was just fine, acting like a kitten. The only thing he had going on was diarrhea, which I treated him for worms, and I figured it might’ve been him adjusting to the new food as well. Other than that, he was a normal kitten. I got up to take a bath around 11 in the morning, and when I returned I couldn’t find him. I asked my partner where he was and he told me he got up and hid in a corner between the wall and my dresser. I found him, laying limp. It wasn’t unusual for him to hide in that corner, but he was face-down. I picked him up, thinking he was just sleeping. He meowed at me, and I gently set him down on the bed, but then I noticed something out of the ordinary. He was paralyzed in his rear legs. I thought maybe it was small, so I called the vet and the told me it wasn’t a life or death situation and they would get back to me to get him in later that day after their staff meeting. Quickly after, he became fully paralyzed, and I called my brother crying because I had no money to help him. So my brother came over and we rushed him to the shelter to see if he was stable enough to go to the hospital the next city over. They said he wouldn’t make the drive and they suggested we take him to the hospital down the road. So we rushed there, where the doctors were all on lunch. I begged them to give him oxygen because at the shelter, his paralysis improved, he was gaining motion again. At the shelter, they tested him for Feline Panleukopenia Virus (FPV), which to put it simply is “parvo” in cats. It affects the nervous system and gastrointestinal lining. He came back negative, but they told me that even if the results were negative there was still a possibility he had it. I gave this info to the vet hospital we took him to. They told us to sit down and wait for the doctor to come back from lunch, so we did. Not very long after, my poor boy opened his mouth wide and started gasping for air. I was already hysterical, but it made me even more when I saw the state he was in. He was actively dying in my arms. The vet tech ran out to grab the vet in the parking lot, where she rushed in and they took him to the back. Moments later, the doctor came back and told me the odds of him living weren’t good. I begged her to do what she could, but she explained to me he was so dehydrated that it was beyond a clinical level. She said she could try to give him IV fluids and corn syrup on his gums to raise his blood sugar, and send us to the hospital in the next city. But, she didn’t think he would make the 45 minute drive. She said the best course of action was to euthanize him because she guessed he had a 1% survival and life-saving efforts would just prolong any potential suffering. I at first refused and told her I wanted to try the fluids and the corn syrup, but she brought me back to reality that even trying those, he wasn’t going to survive. I made the selfless decision and gave them permission to put him to sleep without any tests ran, without any effort. When I said my goodbyes, he was dying in front of me, he was barely conscious. I was screaming and crying, apologizing to him, and telling the vet tech I didn’t do this to him, I got him that way. I was irrational and confused and didn’t know what to do. My brother tried comforting me and saying it wasn’t my fault. They guessed he was born with FPV because his mother wasn’t vaccinated, so he contracted it through utero.

At 1:18 pm, my beautiful boy crossed over the rainbow bridge. I kissed his face and scratched his ears, while he peacefully ran into my late Nana’s arms in the afterlife. My brother said in his last moments, he used all the strength he had left in him to lean into me when I gave him kisses and all the lovin’s he could ask for. He died loved that day, but he also took a piece of my heart and soul with him.

We took him home to my mom’s garden where I tucked him in the ground after cradling him, cherishing my last moments with his physical body.He was tucked in my favorite shirt, just like I would with our blue blanket every night so that he would have me with him for eternity.

Since then, I have been broken to pieces and trying to find answers of what caused him to abruptly be sick. I’ve researched and researched and it was no comfort. I just want closure.

I miss my baby boy, and people think it’s weird I’m grieving a pet like I would a human, but Geralt was special in some way I can’t put my finger on.

As much as this pains me, this post is intended to remember my sweet boy. I also intend to spread awareness on why it is important to vaccinate your pets. I will never know for certain what he was sick with, it could have been completely different than what the vets thought. But please vaccinate your pets and seek medical treatment for them if they have persistent diarrhea and it’s the only symptom. His dehydration was a contributing factor despite how much water he drank. Diarrhea may seem like a small fix or make you assume worms like me. If I had sought out veterinary advise as soon as I took my boy home, I believe he would still be with me today.

Please research feline panleukopenia virus. With Geralt, he didn’t present symptoms of whatever his illness was until it was too late. Always get your babies tested and vaccinated because if you don’t think something like this can happen to you, your chances are greater than there is with vaccinated pets.

To my Geralt, I know you lived a short life and I like to think you picked me to live your last days full of love and comfort. I’m sorry couldn’t do more to save you, I will forever regret the things I never got to do for you. I will always wonder what life would be like if you stayed with me. But I know wherever you are, Nana is taking good care of you and I know you’re by my side in spirit. I miss you so much, my beautiful boy. I love you and I can’t wait until we meet again, for now I will live with you in my heart and I know you’ll be waiting on the other side of the rainbow bridge for me. ❤️🌈🐾

NEW PLAYERS!!!

Australia's biggest Twenty20 cricket league, the Big Bash League (BBL), is made up of teams located in cities. It is well-known for its fast-paced and exciting structure, and it usually runs from December to February. Since its founding in 2011, the league has gained prominence and drawn both Australian talent and talents from other countries. Teams like the Sydney Sixers, Melbourne Stars, and Perth Scorchers battle it out for the championship in famous venues across the nation. The Australian cricket season's biggest event, the BBL is renowned for its exciting atmosphere, engaging fan base, and high-scoring matches. The BBL gives players a competitive edge and a worldwide appeal by featuring both established international cricket stars and up-and-coming talent. Finally, the league has made a substantial contribution to the expansion of T20 cricket by highlighting the exciting elements of the format and helping to nurture players who succeed in this shortened version of the game.

The way that Cricket Australia has responded strategically to the recent turmoil surrounding the Sydney Sixers in the Big Bash League is a very well thought out plan. The challenging assignment essentially entails requesting detailed proposals from prospective Team owners who have already contacted a player to captain their teams. The last four possibilities have been selected by Cricket Australia, which will choose the best one to form a new Big Bash League team. In-depth analyses of the suggested cricket infrastructure, cutting-edge team facilities, creative marketing approaches, and comprehensive community engagement programs would all be necessary for CA. Carefully vetting each proposal is the responsibility of a carefully chosen selection committee made up of business professionals, league executives, and seasoned cricketing greats. Beyond the obvious, the criteria consider the importance of cricket to the club owners, the size of the leaders' current fan base, economic feasibility studies, and the possibility of igniting a thriving cricket culture in the neighborhood. Concurrently, the committee is developing strict ownership and management policies to create a model for openness, moral behavior, and sound financial standing.

This comprehensive and complex strategy aims to create a revolutionary change in the league's course rather than just solving the problems that plagued the Sydney Sixers. Cricket Australia hopes to establish a new side that will play at the highest level of T20 cricket while also fitting in well with the local sports culture. Through the cultivation of a culture that is marked by impartiality, absolute responsibility, and proactive engagement with the community, this all-encompassing project seeks to establish the Big Bash League as the pinnacle of quality and enjoyment within the international cricket scene.

Task in hand

For the CA to select you as the next team in the Big Bash League, you will need to make a proposal presentation. You will be given one business owner and a team captain. Your proposal pitch needs to contain-

• strategies to persuade Cricket Australia

• marketing strategies

• a three-year financial plan that accounts for player acquisition costs

• public relations strategies

• a jingle

• the team logo

• star player hiring plans

• a press release for the team

• 15-player squad.

Deliverables:

Ppt not more than 7 slides

Report not more than 20 pages Extra deliverables are appreciated

A jingle

Hi I’m running for President.

I’m famous and my family is famous.

We never have worked at a fast food restaurant or cleaned our own house. Not even once.

Listen I need to level with you all. This has gone on way too long.

Politely.

My campaign and my fake opponent’s campaign do not give a solitary fuck about you.

At all. At all. At all.

Listen, personally I think some of you are super, but most of the people that we work for view you as just dumb gullible marks and it sucks that we have to come out here and do a song and dance with these jackals with the microphones and cameras and Ivy League thought police and World Economic Forum sociopaths.

We are all actors on a stage and sometimes we get the nod and prance out here and perform. We are all vetted by the Men Behind the Curtain who own us, they own you, wherever you work, wherever you live, wherever you bank…they own us all.

Everybody’s got a boss.

We have to come out here and do this stupid song and dance and emote and we hire PR douchebags from Yale to tell you stories, but the real story is Fuck you.

We don’t care if the military ran a live exercise and tested out toxic drugs on you, we don’t give a rat’s ass if your grandma was suffocated in the hospital or your newborn was born dead.

We don’t care if we murder thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions or billions. In Ukraine or the Middle East or in Ohio or Florida or Texas or New York City, in America or in Kanada or Aussie or Fraahhhnnncee or China or Korea or who gives a shit.

We just don’t.

We need you to worship us and make excuses for us and you will because you are useless eater gullible hapless dolts at our mercy and we are elites.

Some of us think there are too many of you and are aligned with our real bosses and some of us just stick our heads in the sands and go along because whatever. What do you care? Said Rockefeller to Aaron Russo.

We have minders and bankers who have arranged everything in advance, and we don’t give a fuck if our minders set trains on fire or push jabs into your precious little useless eater kids, or make up rules where Grandpa gets to die with a warm glove of water on his hand, again, we just don’t give a fuck. At all. At all. At all.

We are not going to investigate anybody, nobody is going to jail, we are going to parties and our Yalies and our Harvards and Stanfords and our MITs and our Gleaming Talking Heads are going to look at you with fake sympathy and “feel your pain” like that Stanley Tucci character in Hunger Games and then we are just going to keep murdering y’all because again…we just don’t give a fuck.

Maybe some of our True Believer minions do give a fuck, but they will sell your ass out in a heartbeat if we just give them the charismatic song and dance at a private dinner and make them feel pretty and look in their eyes and say, “we did the best we could”.

Dumbasses.

We will be unveiling new injections soon and we’ve already paid off or threatened your fake resistance to spin this as a positive and they do so as instructed. We will be dropping the hammer soon with a new fake pathogen and a banking collapse and probably a cyber attack and some new cancer causing vectors because we have to get rid of most of you.

We have satellite phones and bunkers and stuff. Most of our Middle Managers will get a rude shock that they don’t get the golden ticket into the bunkers. Maybe you all can tear them to shreds for us as we watch on the monitors and fine dine and clink glasses.

We will also probably need to escalate world war with Russia and then China, but we’ve got the elites of those nations on board as well. The fun part is all the saber rattling and watching all those jackals with the cameras salivate for war.

In the meantime, we have prepared some Tucker Carlson and Russell Brand and Kim Iversen and some good old Pfizer Bad rah rah, and for those of you truly stupid dolts hanging on for dear life, the old legacy media favorites.

There may be some race riots and food shortages and we may try to swing a trans-riot for shits and giggles and we are definitely monitoring you everywhere, so don’t think that you can run some kind of resistance.

I feel like it’s important to say honest things because Truth is like a lion.

Now go out there and vote harder!

Just kidding, we’ll give you whoever we feel like and if you don’t like it, that’s too bad.
