Jason: *holding gun on Bruce* "Bruce, I forgive you for not saving me."

Batman: *glares silently*

Jason: "But why? Why on God's Earth—" *hits Joker across the face*

Joker (tied to a chair): *cackles*

Jason: "—is HE still alive??"

Joker: "AHAHAHAHAHHAHA!"

Batman:

Batman: "I'm sorry, d'you want me to be serious here or—?"

Jason: *in disbelief* "YES, Bruce! I want you to be serious right now! If he had done what he did to me to you, I would've done nothing but search the earth for this pile of death-worshiping garbage!"

Joker: "I love you too, Sugar Plum."

Batman: *holds hands up* "Okay, yeah, I get that, totally, I get that. Um. Have you tried?"

Jason: "Excuse you?"

Batman: "Have you tried to kill him yet?"

Jason: *to Joker* "Is he being serious?"

Joker: *also confused* "I'm gonna be honest with you, Junior. I don't know."

Jason: "Got it. Great." *turns back to Batman* "What the fuck does THAT mean?"

Batman: "Okay, so no, you haven't. Cool. Do it."

Jason:

Jason: *lowers gun* "What."

Batman: "Do it, cap his ass. Shoot him."

Joker: "I'm gonna go with Junior here, and say: what?"

Jason: "You want me to shoot him?"

Batman: "I want someone to shoot him! Give me the gun, I'll do it!"

Jason: *mutters, brain blue screening* "What is going on right now? This should a lot harder than it is."

Batman: "C'mon, son! You decapitated like eleven people three days ago! Fuckin' do it!"

Joker: *turns to Jason quizzically* "This has gotta be some sort of test, ri—" *Jason fires. Joker lands on the floor lifeless, eyes still open.*

Jason: "There, you happy? Jesus. Was that so hard? All of this time and it was THAT easy!"

Batman: "I don't know what you're talking about "easy". There's nothing there." *nods at floor*

Jason: "What the fuck is that supposed to—" *looks down at floor where the Joker was lying*

Floor: *is devoid of Joker*

Jason: *stares*

Floor: *continues to be sans anything but carpet*

Jason: "What the fuck?"

Batman: "Yeah."

Jason: "WHAT THE FUCK?"

Batman: "Take as long as you need with this."

Jason: *looking around frantically* "I just shot him! He hit the floor! What the f—"

Floor: *is just vibin'*

Jason: "Where the fuck did he go??"

Batman: "See that shit? That shit right there happens every fucking time!"

Jason: "There's not even a blood stain! It's just gone!"

Batman: "Yeah, like two days after you died, I chased him into a helicopter where he got shot like six times. The helicopter exploded and crashed into the ocean. And his body was gone before Superman could find it."

Jason: "Oh my God. I don't understand how this is even fucking possible!"

Batman: "He's like a cryptid! I don't fucking get it!"

Joker: *disembodied laughter*

Jason: *freaked out, turning in circles trying to find him* "Oh my God!"

Batman: "THAT OMINOUS SHIT HAPPENS TOO! I DON'T KNOW, DUDE!"

Jason: "Dude. Fuck whatever's going on here, that's some fucking bullshit."

Batman: "Thank you! Finally someone gets it!"

JOUSTER??? Are there pictures??

Sure is. I did it fairly regularly between 2010 and 2017 and was fortunate to travel quite a bit with it too. These pictures below are from a 2012 tournament in Texas. I trained up here in Canada with a local group and we trailored the horses down for this one. I'm riding Peter here, who I learned to joust on. Peter has since moved on to the big meadow in the sky but he was the best mount you could ask for starting out.

It's been a hot minute since I've talked about jousting so the rest of this is gonna be under a cut haha.

Anyway, later that year, I got bucked off jousting at a gay wedding and got pretty badly concussed so didn't do much in 2013 but in 2014, an invitation arrived for a tournament in Australia and I couldn't say no. These photos are from Australia the first time.

I'm jousting an Australian friend there on her lovely boy Apollo. The second image gives a good sense of the action and impact, especially my lance which has rotated around entirely and seems to be hanging in the air between us. That was our first pass of the tournament and we just about wiped each other entirely out LOL.

For local shows, I usually rode the troupe's horses, which included Rowan (left) and Blue (right), below:

And Galahad (he was the dude who bucked me off later that season), below:

In late 2014, I worked my own horse (Ziggy) up and did some of my best riding with him that year. Here we are breaking sticks with Sarah from Australia at our local show:

Graduated from my loaner armour in 2015 and upgraded to a historically-accurate custom-made 1480s South German armour, which made the whole experience 30000x better. Shout-out to @xxstarfukkerzxx, fellow local jouster, for the shot below:

Here I am with Arthur (left) at the Folsom Renaissance Faire in 2016 (I think?).

Also got to France that year (sure don't miss the historically-accurate long medieval dude hair but do miss scrappy little Kerleos, who was a fantastic, tough-as-nails ride):

And back to Australia (riding Duke, the retired racehorse):

My last tournament was a real fancy English one in 2017. Spoiler: I was cripplingly -awful- at this one (buy me a beer sometime and I'll tell you why) but the horses, locale, and photos were second to none.

Will never look as cool in a photo as this last one but feel my photos with Barney C.'s MetroCop kit and helmet on are kinda close.

Anyway, having aged / matured in the years since 2017, I would certainly like to get back into it when the conditions are right! Also more than happy to answer questions about the whole process because there is a LOT to it.

discourse over shipping the two guys in the mariner’s revenge song by the decemberists but it focuses entirely on the fourteen year age gap and anytime anyone tries to bring up how that one guy fucked the other guy’s mom, gave her syphilis, and stole all her money, leading directly to her tragic death and the titular mariner’s lifelong quest for revenge, they seamlessly pivot into arguing over if actually the mom was in the wrong for fucking an eighteen year old

the thing about the trans congresswoman for me is that like. she can be the most bloodthirsty centrist in the world and that still isn't enough. republicans are already trying to make administrative moves to stop her from using the capitol bathrooms. like it doesn't matter how respectable you are you're still a tranny
