Sitting down at the batcaves desks, Tim glanced over at Bruce for the fith time in the last minute, mouth opening before closing and looking back uselessly at the cold case in front of him.

Bruce, having felt Tim stare more than seen him sighs, "Just ask what is on your mind chum." He says, turning his chair around to face the teen.

Tim, ears burning crimson as he ducks his head in embarrassment, "So like...you are magical or something? Because I am 90% sure you were being buried alive and had the coms cut but...but I could still hear you, but like in my brain."

Bruce grunts, face in a scowl, "No I did not use any of that mumbo jumbo, it was simple astral projecting."

Tim gives Bruce a dead eyed look, "Sure it was, and who did you learn it from, Himalayan monks?"

Bruce let a small smirk fall on his features, "Tibetan actually, the Himalayan Monks taught me how to stop my heart."

Tim could only hold his head in his hands and sigh harder than he thought he could.

My ass has Not been drawing because I'm trying to get through Infinite Wealth as fast as possible but oughh kazumaji, oh the way things change

The fact that these two scenes are 16 Years Apart is crazy.

The fact that it took 16 years, 5 games, and countless instances of Kiryu leaving for Majima to finally just outright tell him "don't leave", whereas before he would've just stayed quiet.

The fact that Majima stayed silent in Yakuza 3 when Kiryu was leaving to live a new, free life while leaving Majima to take care of his responsibilities, meanwhile in IW he speaks up when Kiryu leaves to go throw his remaining life away for the yakuza while leaving the 3jimas to their quiet (if admittedly miserable) new lives. ohhh they make me sick

I think the main reason I hate the Percy Jackson show’s ending is that they made Poseidon the hero instead of Percy. Yeah, Percy succeeded in retrieving the Lightning Bolt, but he failed to do it in time to stop the war. If anything, by returning the bolt to Zeus, he gave him a weapon that he could potentially use against his own dad. I feel like Percy would have felt terrible that the father he’d resented so much had had to bail him out by debasing himself, because he’d failed at doing what he was supposed to do. Not to mention, Annabeth and Grover would have felt utterly miserable because they’d wanted to prove themselves on this quest. If they’d wanted to show that Poseidon loved Percy, they could have had Zeus decide not to start the war because the bolt had been returned before the deadline, but try to kill Percy because he still thinks that he’d stolen it, and have Poseidon stop him like he does in the show, and then convince him to hear out Percy. And then maybe gloat that it wasn’t his son who’d stolen the bolt, but Zeus’.

yeah, and honestly the change was unnecessary to begin w. the book scene(s) w poseidon already gave closure w poseidon (poseidon defends percy from zeus, conveys that he cares abt sally despite not being able to be w her, comforts percy and makes sure percy understands that he is not ashamed of him, etc) and foreshadowed percy's tragic fate (which the show failed to capture by removing the conversation and changing who saw the fates).

instead, the show rewrote it and failed to foreshadow that the war poseidon is surrendering in was a big deal, like u said made poseidon the hero who stopped the war, and also removed poseidon of his flaws and arc (the whole reason percy was on the quest to begin w is bc poseidon was too prideful to admit he'd never come up w the plan to steal the bolt, which makes poseidon surrendering his kingdom to aid percy's plan to defeat typhon more meaningful).

it's just not good writing.

"MelJayVik can't work because both Jayce and Viktor are too possessive to share."

And it just might be the stupidest argument I've ever heard to be honest.

But I think what pisses me off the most is that I only see this argument being used for MelJayVik, and that is so interesting considering I adore a lot of Poly ships and I have never seen such an argument before.

Interesting isn't it.

So what's the problem? Is it because Mel is a woman? (I doubt it. Alucard X Trevor X Sypha is a popular ship).

So it's because she's black isn't it? 🙂

"That's not true. We love our Queen Mel."

Ah but you've all unanimously decided that she's not Queen enough to work in even a platonic relationship with Jayce and Viktor. 😌 Don't give me that queen shit until you treat her like the queen she actually is.

I swear y'all jump through hoops to keep them apart. If it isn't pushing the agenda that Mel and Viktor hate each other (which they don't. Having a disagreement does not mean loathing. What's wrong with you? 💀 You guys did the same thing with Jayce and the bridge scene after season one), then it's pushing the agenda that Viktor and Jayce don't share.

MIND YOU, while they are both OBSESSED with each other, Jayce kept trying to pull Viktor into the world of popularity and fame. He wanted Viktor to expand and have fun. And the second Viktor realised he was being too clingy his first instinct is always to pull away and push Jayce towards others. Don't give me shit about them not sharing. Their problem isn't that they want to own each other, it's that they think the other wants nothing to do with them. Stop pushing your fantasies on Jayce and Viktor. It annoys me.

Suggesting that Anakin’s love for Padmé was “conditional” doesn’t fit right when you know he continues to love her just as intensely and feel extreme guilt and remorse over what HE did to her for the entirety of his life.

My thesis supervisor: I've been thinking about something you said last week - that you aren't sure if you're going to do a master's degree. I believe you mean you're considering moving to another city?

Me: ...no. I'm not sure if I'm going to do a master's at all.

Him: why not?

Me: I worry it'll be too hard for me.

Him: [gives me a long look] Do you hear yourself?

Thinking about Iris' very open disdain for spirit channeling and how it seemingly contradicts many other elements of her character.

Let me explain—Iris prior to the end of BttT is a woman who only knows facades, covering up the truth, and only presenting herself exactly as she wants others to see her. We see this over and over again throughout the course of the story: she hides her real identity while dating Phoenix, she does damage control for Dahlia and Godot to help them avoid blame for their crimes, and she is extremely selective about which information she chooses to disclose to specific people depending on whatever role she finds herself playing in that moment (daughter, girlfriend, accomplice, etc). Her demeanor as a whole is also rather meek and unassuming, and she's shown to be exceptionally kind; she expresses favorable opinions on most everyone she meets, even those continuously treated poorly by other characters (like Larry) or those that have objectively done reprehensible things (like Dahlia).

All of this stands in stark contrast to her saying in no uncertain terms that she hates spirit channeling:

This stands out to me because it is one of very few things that Iris is completely forthright honest about in the early portion of this case. After spending all day avoiding Phoenix and now carefully dodging his questions towards her in hopes of preventing the truth of her deception from coming out (all of this while actively avoiding her responsibilities at the Inner Temple because of Larry's "blackmail" letter which also threatened to expose her "secret"), why is this the one bit of truth she chooses to divulge here? Or rather: why is this the one thing she seemingly cannot lie about?

Obviously the answer lies in Iris' past and the permanent damage that was done to her and her family due to the politics of the Fey clan, with the Kurain Channeling Technique at the root, and the DL-6 incident as the event that brought everything to ruin. Iris bore witness to her mother Morgan losing the title of Master of Kurain due to her inferior powers and the despair that caused her, then three years later saw her aunt Misty who, despite purportedly being so much better than her mother, made a mistake while channeling that led to an innocent man's conviction, disgracing the Fey name and causing her to flee the village in shame. With this in mind, it makes sense that Iris would feel so strongly about spiritual powers doing more harm than good; after all, she has firsthand experience of the damage that can be done to the women that have it.

But what of the women that don't have it—namely, Iris herself? What happens to a spirit medium, born of the Fey bloodline, daughter of the then-master of her channeling school, when she's shown to not have any spiritual powers? I'm of the opinion that Iris' hatred is not only a product of what she's seen happen to her mother and aunt, but also very closely tied to what is, essentially, her earliest failure in life—after all, what good is a medium who can't channel? Fey women are raised to believe that their worth is linked to how well they can perform the service of their clan, which is the same reason why Maya beats herself up for failing to channel Mia in Turnabout Goodbyes and Pearl does the same with Dahlia later in this case. In a sense, Iris' hatred of spirit channeling is an externalization of her own self-hatred—unlike Dahlia, who mainly copes by lashing out and seeking revenge on those who wrong her, Iris is far too gentle and loving to lay blame on any one person. But all that repressed guilt and anger still has to go somewhere—and it manifests through this one small crack in her otherwise flawless facade. The one thing she cannot bring herself to find beauty in no matter how much she tries. The one thing that should have given her purpose but didn't—leaving her no choice but to mold herself beyond recognition over and over into roles that aren't truly her own, but at the very least give her meaning where she was denied it before.

And knowing her? She probably hates that flaw more than anything.
