#why? because why not

Was rambling to my friend and then boom a backstory for grim formed.

So in show as you all know, colossus and him do have beef but that’s because grim wanted to be captain so let’s take that, and twist it a little.

Failed business/salesman grim made a wicked deal that blew up in his face when he doubled crossed his partners and they wanted him dead. So to avoid death he stole a yacht and set a course out to sea, hoping to land in Europe. He got caught up in a storm that whisked his ass off to neverland.

That’s where he met captain colossus, who was kind enough to offer him a place on his ship. Ofc no businessman wants to be on the bottom, he wanted to be on top where the gold and riches were. He wanted to be captain.

So he climbed the ranks via, getting fellow men killed by “accident” to reduce competition and by proving himself resourceful in certain situations and perils, which impressed colossus both in a professional way and also in a more romantic way..

Yes Captain colossus was falling in love. Grim could see that, so he leaned into leading colossus on. Little short kisses and hints of flirting. And they grew closer, so much so that they did have sex yes, but it wasn’t enough. After all the first mate was still around and he knew grim’s game and tried to kill him before he can go further. Unfortunately he evaded every attempt and his (the first mate) death would come when a battle with another crew broke out and grim just watched as the first mate got outnumbered when he could’ve used the weapons on him to aid him. After being colossus’s source of comfort that night he knew he was in the bag

And so that was how he became first mate. However he started to get cocky and a bit too bold so much so he tried to kill colossus a few months later in his sleep and the other man woke up and promptly threw him out and the next day he was exiled to a stranded island, chained to a tree and left to rot.

He got out (eventually, with some broken bones) obviously, but Ofc when you go sometime with out food or water or companionship delusion combined with his hatred and humiliation had driven him “a bit” insane. He began to make out shapes and forms within the darkness and shadows, communicating with them alongside training and waited for the next ship to stop by…

That day came when it was storming with the fog so strong that you could barely see. Grim took this opportunity and what he learned from the shadows and teleported onto the ship, unfortunately for that captain and their crew of four they were now just skeletons of the neversea.

His infamy has grown overtime and he still makes crews weary when heavy fog rolls in you never know if you’ll be the next victim of the grim buccaneer.

stuck between "psychological horror statement" and "objectively the funniest thing you could say to your real flesh and blood dad" in the father's day card aisle

i think theres this idea in the general public that the "best" fanfic gets turned into real books like 50 shades of grey. but the truth is that the best fanfic can never be published as an actual book because its intricately woven into the canon material so its inseparable even if you change the names

Katniss is such an unreliable narrator. She says "Then something unexpected happens. At least, I don't expect it because I don't think of District 12 as a place that cares about me" girl you deliver strawberries to the Mayor, you hunt and trade for the district, when you fell at Prim being chosen someone caught you, when you went to Prim people parted for you, when you volunteered EVERYONE stopped. Idk how to tell you but I think you're a pillar of the community.

the steven universe hate is insane bc people are (or at least were) more upset that fictional war criminals got fictional hugs than they recognize that it singlehandedly advanced queer rep in children's media by lightyears and then straight up ate heavy retaliation for the nerve.

It does have real flaws that are worth discussing, but it also put their male protagonist in dresses and skirts and played it straight and even empowering, they aired a lesbian wedding on television, it was a genuinely queer, genuinely diverse piece of media through and through. It did a lot of real good for the real world.

But also the fictional characters caused fictional harm to other fictional characters, and didn't get an onscreen firing squad sentence. So, you know, it's basically ontologically evil in real life.

the curse of adhd:

i will remember with absolute clarity, when the thought strikes me that i have a text to send someone, that this is the fourth time in three days i've attempted to send this specific text

i will forget, in the time it takes me to pick up my phone, that i picked it up intending to send a text

Bruce, visibly overwhelmed by Emotions as he watches a ten-year-old Dick goofing around in the batcave: Alfred. Alfred I think I'd die if something happened to him

Alfred: *carefully doesn't say that he thought the same thing when Martha and Thomas placed a newborn Bruce in his arms for the first time because he knows that'll completely destroy the little emotional bandwidth Bruce has*

Watching my first watch through of SPN ever. I’m on season 9 and as someone who has been on tumblr since ancient times but didn’t actually get in to it, I think everyone DOWNPLAYED how crazy Destiel is. How did veterans survive that….. It’s just. What. What am I watching. Why does Deans voice get SOFT when he talks to Cas particularly??? Why did Dean ditch Sam to watch Cas at the supermarket???? I think because of the meme I was convinced it was cas who was the one obviously in love but. No. It’s Dean. And it’s embarrassing for him. This is crazy but Destiel fans weren’t crazy y’all were on to something all this time…..

love when ppl defend the aggressive monetization of the internet with "what, do you just expect it to be free and them not make a profit???" like. yeah that would be really nice actually i would love that:)! thanks for asking

Sorry to be that person, but "girl math" doesn't mean "girls are bad at math". It's a way of saying "how many women use math irl"

Like "If I get hit with armor, it doesn't count because my health remains the same"

Or "I returned $30 and spent $5, that's a net positive, so I basically got this for free"

Not that girls literally don't understand math and don't get that things cost money. It's a simplification of thought processes and analysis, actually implying high-level thinking, not "girls are so bad at math we don't even try"

I know, it's not that serious, but taken out of context it sounds worse than it is.

ohhhhhhhh my god you cannot make“teehee girls just use a different kind of math around shopping to justify buying more stuff cause they’re girls using girl math” into a feminist statement it IS an actual problem to ascribe not only gender (woman) but childishness (girl) to poor financial literacy and say that the kind of math girls do is actually exclusively related to the domestic sphere when we talk about shopping or buying food or presents or little treats. Do you fucking hear yourself
