The funniest part of this new event is the fact I can't find out what's going on it from spoilers. All context is lost in the wave of Hot Eel Mom. I love her, all hail Georgina, mother of This and That, but where is the context? What *is* the event?
to be fair, we're still in the intro part, so not much has actually happened yet! Jade and Floyd were supposed to go to their mom's friend's wedding to help with the ancient merfolk marriage custom of
❤️❤️❤️~the Test of Love~❤️❤️❤️
but Floyd last-minute changed his mind (on account of being Floyd) and Azul was like "I'm not going if your mom is going to be there". at which point Jade realized he'd just been handed a golden opportunity to invite the absolute funniest group of people he could think of.
anyway tl;dr Jade manipulates a bunch of nerds into joining him to heckle/throw bricks at/try to drown a couple of randos in the name of love, what could possibly go wrong
#art#twisted wonderland#twisted wonderland spoilers#eternity float#eternity float of the coral sea#okay FINE they're not supposed to ACTUALLY drown but it is considered good luck if you manage to flip their boat over#honestly this event is just super cute so far. i forgot how much i enjoyed these silly excursions!#there's been some fun little worldbuilding bits about mercustoms#and of course they all need new outfits because ✨wedding✨#i do think my favorite thing about georgina so far#(aside from the whole seven foot tall gorgeous mermaid thing)#is that she was able to immediately and accurately intuit everyone's personality and style based off of hearing floyd's nicknames for them#i believe it#oh also 'how lovely to meet jade's friends...thank you for coming...gracious me. the prince of briar valley! what an honor. and who's this?#'oh my...so THIS is the famous riddle i've heard so much about :) :) :)'#what have they been telling her. what secrets does she know.#(riddle: we're not --) (rook: yes we are ~BOSOM FRIENDS~)#(malleus in the background: human child. tell me i am the prettiest little sea slug you've ever seen.)#god i love them#can't wait to see these idiots enact petty harassment on those poor unfortunate souls

The Case of the Devlin House (Reverse Verse!) as commissioned by @i-am-as-normal-as-you-are everyone thank Haunted!
The father of the Devlin family murdered his wife and children one night, and no one knows why. While investigating the case, Edwin finds a letter from the eldest daughter, in which she expressed her desire to go to college to get away from her father... and closer to the girl she loved. The family has been stuck in a loop since that awful night, and now Edwin is too.
Bonus:

y'all ever think abt how it was julie having the affair and it is even said multiple times that she was the one who left him, yet wilson was still the one who left their home and moved in with house. like. he couldn't bear to stay in their home alone. he immediately ran to house and stayed on his couch for weeks. suffered through his pranks and his laziness and his manipulation. telling him he wants him gone while sabotaging his attempts to leave. and he only left once he got a girlfriend again.
#chyanne speaks#house md#hilson#hate crimes md#gregory house#james wilson#i think his inability to be alone is such an interesting quality of his that isnt touched on enough#like yes we all haha at his long string of unsuccessful relationships but we dont talk abt it all stemming from his inability to be alone#his first wife leaves him and then he remarried quickly#he cheats on the second wife and remarries quickly#the third wife cheats on him and leaves him and he immediately moves in with house#and then starts dating a patient and immediately moves in with her#but!!! then he moves into the hotel and is alone for like almost a year! and honestly he NEEDED IT#bc GROWTH happened in that year and he meets someone who doesn't fit his M.O. who breaks away from the mold#although he does immediately move in with her too but still. amber was different. she was the step in the right direction#and then she dies.#and then wilson throws himself into the left field. everything needs to change. he's spent so long fearing being alone.#so he tries to leave so he is completely and totally alone without house to fall back on#but house needs him. he needs him too much. they need each other too much.#and he falls back to house again. and he's content that way. he's always the most content when he's with house. always feels the least alone#and then sam comes back into his life and ruins e v e r y t h i n g#he falls right back onto those old patterns. kicks house out and moves her in. and then what happens??? of course??? she leaves him. again.#and then he's alone again and it hurts. he gets a cat that we only hear about twice and then never gets brought up again#but wilson has his kitty. he has house. he's not alone. he can be content.#and then house fucks everything up. he goes to prison. wilson is alone again.#im honestly SHOCKED that wilson didnt remarry in that year they were apart but he was rly trying to change!#he was working on himself and trying to make changed he thought would be good for him#and then house comes back. and house won't LET wilson be alone. he wont leave him alone.#and it's exactly what wilson has been yearning for since the day he drove that car into cuddys house#and in the end. as long as he had house that was all that mattered. as long as he had house he wasn't alone.

Alya is so much better than me, because if I found out my bff is protecting a terrorist? A terrorist that has specifically attacked and targeted my loved ones? Who also was an abusive father to a good friend of mine and also said bff's boyfriend? A terrorist that is now being worshipped by everyone because of your bestie? Yeah, I would have tattletaled immediately.
#Like why on earth is everyone mad at Alya she has every right to be mad at Marinette#Yes Mari is in a shitty mental place rn but that doesnt mean Alya has to lick the floor beneath her and cuddle her over this#Like I think none of us would be all happy after hearing something like that#And Akya doesnt know what Gabriels motives were at that point#(which were not very good motives)#Of course shell be mad Hawkmoth was a terrorist#Besides the whole fandom used to beg for Alya to not agree with Marinette on all her actions#And now that she finally does express an opinion your gonna bash her?#Like I like Marinette and all so this is not supposed to be salt on her#But the entire fandom from what I saw was FURIOUS when she didnt tell Adrien or Chat the truth when the finale aired#And now you all switch up cause Alya said what we been saying this entire time and think Marinette is actually great for this#Be for real Alya stans rise up cause she is not wrong for having emotions#miraculous ladybug#miracilous ladybug#alya cesaire#marinette dupain cheng

hiii 💕 since you asked, 23 for the kiss meme c:
One good thing about Orlesian wine...
(or: when Kieran is finally asleep and Morrigan's back from a neverending ball)
Hi Mary, thank you so much for the prompt! I actually had two ideas for this prompt, I went for the wine moms first. :3 (I'll probably draw the other one later on)
kiss roulette meme
#dragon age origins#warden x morrigan#mahariel x morrigan#warden mahariel#morrigan dragon age#da fanart#greypetrel#alyra mahariel#cw: wine#I thought it was just a random day when Alyra showed up in Orlais#but the idea of her being there the whole time during Wicked Eyes and Wicked Hearts makes me cackle#Did she know about the assassination attempt? Yes of course.#Does she care if Celene dies? Absolutely not good riddance it's been a (dis)pleasure to meet her.#Not her circus not her monkeys

hot take but I don’t think that lucas or dustin (or anyone, for that matter, other than maybe robin) are going to see what’s going on between mike and will until it happens. they don’t suspect ANYTHING. when they actually get together everyone’s going to be shocked
#as much as i love the “max knew all along!” fics#well… she didn’t#when she got there mike was obsessing over two people: will and el#i’m sure she assumed it was because he just got will back and el just disappeared (of course she didn’t really know about el from the start#as for everyone else#they’ve always been like that.#mike and will since the beginning- always together#i don’t think they suspect anything. maybe they did once but i doubt they do now#i don’t believe el suspects anything#to dustin and lucas they’re not acting any differently than how they always do…#robin is the only one who would really notice anything honestly (which is why i’m excited to see her on screen with them)#and YES jonathan KNOWS but he DOES NOT THINK that mike likes will back.#i truly do think that no one has any idea what’s going on except for mike and will themselves#byler#stranger things#stranger things 5#will byers#mike wheeler#the duffer brothers#byler endgame

okay so ive decided im not going to do a while 'fake tweets' post for every episode, maximum 3 tweets per episode unless its an episode that has a lot going on, or just one i really like/think twitter would have a lot to say about.
for anyone confused which tweet is for which episode, let me explain :)
image 1: fishy doubloon caper
images 2, 3, and 4: opera in the outback caper
images 5 and 6: chasing paper caper
images 7 and 8: lucky cat caper
images 9 and 10: french connection caper
which means season 1 is done!! cant wait for season 2 :)
#carmen sandiego#carmen sandiego netflix#carmen sandiego 2019#carmen sandiego twitter au#twitter au#fake tweets#twitter#social media#social media au#unreality#carmen sandiego unreality#tweets#ok so ivy doesnt use humor to cope in stressful situations. after the stress has passed and shes safe? yes#but not during the danger. thats what ZACK does. however zack had a concussion at the time and was unable to make the joke#so ivy had to do it for him. besides shes more into dark humor than he is and that joke def classifies as dark humor#player usually likes a bit of dark humor as well but in this situation it was not appropriate#ivy apologised for the joke later by sending him money for sweets dwdw. also carmen laughed at the joke but then she got lectured by player#via a meme. of course. but she got lectured (ivy did too lol)#anyway they would all be menaces on twitter.#also julia is seething in jealousy after seeing the 'frenemies with benefits' tweet about carmen bc back OFF paperstar that is her lady#i promise more is to come. especially since i quite enjoyed season 2#not sure if ill do anything for the need for speed caper bc ive never actually watched it fully but i will try. for the people#anyway#enjoy the burnt food#<3

so while my brain shut down and rebooted the last couple weeks (the world is on fire & the husband is a federal employee & the sister is Having Troubles & my PMS is probably turning into pre-menopause and is Kicking My Brain's Ass, so to speak, & just yk Life Is Fraught) I've been playing SDV again, as I never really got a chance to check out all the new 1.6 stuff
(and I was gonna play minimal mods to see how the game itself rebalanced but no, I missed them too much, especially Chests Anywhere and DSV tho I am deeply sad that Less Annoying Flowers is broken 😅)
and rather than make a new farmer I decided I'd replay my original first one (Bethany who married Sebastian and this is part of why I needed DSV because the first time I ever played was on PlayStation and I wanted his piercings and glasses and ao dai this time)
and anyway I have never ever really considered writing fic for SDV but wow I am awash in feels both new and nostalgic
AND MUST SHARE THIS ONE AT LEAST
like
Sebastian who is depressed and doesn't even have a window and then he gets to move to the farm and sit at the window and watch the fruit bats (and I also got him So Many Frogs) and I'm just so 🥹
(also I am about to have a Void Salmon fish pond, and the first clothing I made was the jacket from the frozen tear, and I planted all my tapper trees by the ponds so they're like little forest habitat in my imagination and I am such a nerd y'all)
anyways
that's my brain right now, how are all y'all doing?
#jilly spam#this does not need to be in the sdv tag does it?#but sharing sebastian feels?#do I find it hilarious that I accidentally got a sebastian and bethany married for da2 hawke feels reasons?#yes of course I do#istg it was not on purpose#I did give her tragic family deaths in her backstory once I realized tho#cuz I'm mean#but also it's hilarious#and of course now she's very happy#my sdv rambling

Miles calling Julian 'Jules' one (1) time is probably a writing fuck up and yet it lives rent free in my head 24/7 and its gotten to the point where I do need to write a super niche fic about my hyper specific headcanons about how that comes about that maybe 2 other people would read
I have visions of a Rascals-esque episode where Julian gets de-aged due to a time anomaly or some fuckshit but unlike Rascals Julian is just fully a 5 year old. no memories of his adulthood or anything. pre-augmentations, pre-enhancements, pre-everything little Jules Bashir is now on the station and they've gotta deal with it. and I mean, who better to care for Jules than Miles and Keiko- who are both very good parents, and also they've dealt with this sort of thing before
this entire thing is self-indulgent on every level because I want an excuse to get into my really specific headcanons with Julian and disability. like we know I hc Julian as being audhd. but as a kid, as Jules, I think he was non-verbal. I also think he had dyspraxia. he doesnt name anything when he talks about what he was like pre-augmentations, he keeps it vague, and leaning into that I think Miles would only have a vague idea of what to expect when interacting with Jules, and he finds himself completely unprepared for what Jules is actually like. and also trans Julian supremacy and I dont think he really tells people he's trans so Miles is also not expecting Jules to be a 5 year old girl
I imagine Miles is maybe expecting Jules to be very similar to Julian and to be very chatty and extroverted, but more awkward, and maybe just not understanding a lot of things. instead, Jules doesnt speak beyond a few words and vocalizations. she moves constantly, but its mostly fidgeting and stimming- she doesnt like to walk, and shes very clumsy and bumps into things and falls down a lot. Miles and Keiko spend most of the time carrying her around on their hips, like they would Molly. she doesnt like being around lots of people, and is very easily overwhelmed. they figure out very quickly that shes a very good hider, because she scares the absolute shit out of them when she takes off and it takes a solid 3 hours to find her
they do figure things out pretty quickly. she gets overwhelmed by noise easily, so Miles has some headphones replicated for her- smaller versions of the ones he has for ear protection. Jules communicates mostly through body language, pointing at things and smacking things and grunting a lot, but they cant figure out what she means. Keiko roots through her old school supplies and gets Jadzia to turn a PADD into a communication device. Jules absolutely fucking LOOOOVES the PADD and they make a strap for it so that she can carry it everywhere. turns out shes very inquisitive- shes constantly using the PADD to ask 'whats that? what's that? what's that?' about basically everything
the thing they have the hardest time with is that things dont stick easily for Jules. Miles and Keiko are answering the same questions over and over, but she just cant retain a lot of what shes taught. she gets things mixed up a lot, and is confused easily. she cant read at all and has a hard time figuring out what pictures are depicting. the PADD is very helpful, but also very basic with visuals, because Jules just cant comprehend words or more complex visuals. she gets frustrated really easily and cries, and its really hard to calm her down. she has a lot of sensory issues and cant communicate exactly what upsets her about how things feel, leading to a lot of trial and error, and several thrown utensils and spilled plates and bowls
still, Miles and Keiko handle it all. Jules feels safest with Miles and clings to him a lot. he does a lot of his work during this time with Jules in one arm, her headphones on, big curious eyes watching him work. but, in the evenings, when Jules is tired, she curls up close to Keiko on the couch, and Keiko strokes her short hair, while Jules runs her hands over the soft material of Keiko's skirt. Jules and Molly get along- they dont play together, but Molly will read little stories to Jules, and makes silly voices that make Jules laugh. Jules is so gentle with Kirayoshi- she won't hold him, but she gently strokes his hair, and hums at him, and Keiko recognizes the lullaby shes trying to echo
sure, she isnt the easiest child. but at the end of the day, accommodating her isnt the hardest thing Miles and Keiko have ever done. Miles thinks back to how Julian described himself as a kid, thinks about the fuss his parents made about how they couldnt deal with the guilt and heartbreak of watching their child fall behind. he thinks of after that, Julian quietly wondering if maybe his parents were just trying to make things easier for him. maybe they did have good intentions. he's wondered the same thing himself. maybe in their own way, they thought they were doing the right thing
he's thinking about this while he's holding Jules, curled up against him and asleep. he's barely slept these last few days, he's about at wit's end trying to handle all of this, he misses his Julian and he wants him back. but when he looks at Jules, theres no resentment. he isnt even annoyed. she drives him up a wall, but shes a kid- thats her job in life. as for the cognitive piece, well. they can figure all that out if they need to. he laughs at himself a bit- thinking ahead about Jules' future already, those dad instincts kicking in. doesnt hurt to be prepared, he tells himself. just in case
it occurs to him, as he's dozing off himself, that genetic enhancement and DNA re-sequencing dont cross his mind. not once. and when he looks at Jules with tired eyes, feels the peaceful rise and fall of her back under his hand, he finds that he cant imagine himself doing it. cant imagine taking this child in, and telling people how to cut and paste and re-arrange her DNA. he cant imagine wanting to make her into anything but the child she already is. he cant imagine thinking that she was so difficult, so far behind, that she had to be changed into an entirely different person. he loves Julian, he wouldnt change Julian for anything, but he finds himself loving Jules, too. he wouldnt change her, either. not a single thing
Keiko sees the anger behind his eyes when they put Jules to bed for the night. she asks him about it after they shut the door. Miles stands at the door for a moment, thinking about that little kid inside that he cant save from what's to come. and he just tells Keiko- "Richard and Amsha Bashir can go to hell."
#star trek: ds9#julian bashir#miles o'brien#keiko o'brien#of course they figure out that anomaly and restore Julian to his adult self#he remembers the whole thing and it really deepens his bond with Miles and Keiko#and every once in a while now- Miles and Keiko will call him Jules#Julian lets them- and only them#I think about this idea a lot can you tell#but I also have like. variations#like as an example I said Miles expects Jules to be mini Julian to nearly a T#but I think you can also make a case for Miles expecting Jules to be VERY different#where he might expect Jules to be much more severely disabled#hearing how Julian talks about it and forming this image that maybe Jules was in a lot of pain and had very poor quality of life#and as he spends time with Jules he keeps expecting worse things to happen#but they dont#like yes Jules does experience a lot of difficulty and navigating her needs is a challenge#she is very much disabled#but with the right support and the proper care and accommodations? Jules could easily lead a happy life#this tragic child image Julian and his parents built up just completely falls apart#and just like in the post- Miles is more convinced than ever that Richard and Amsha Bashir can go to hell#the narrative forgave the Bashirs too easily I need more emphasis on how the augmentation was completely unnecessary

The other thing that I think I would want in an Annabeth Wayne AU that I don't think I've seen so far is Bruce being absolutely pissed at Athena.
It was bad enough with Talia and Damian, but Athena is a literal god of wisdom who should know better AND he doesn't even have the "culpability" of having slept with her.
She one hundred percent saw Batman, tactician of the Justice League, was drawn in by her aspect of the Goddess of Strategy, and proceeded to create a child without his consent, a daughter who she didn't even raise before the child became a weapon.
And like whatever else, however fucked up Damian was by his own training to become a child-weapon, at least Talia loved Damian.
Whereas Athena loves Annabeth in the way a Goddess loves, not the way a Person loves, and I don't think Bruce, whose entire identity is so fixated on his relationship with his own parents, would recognize that as love at all.
And, like, Talia put Damian through a lot of shit. I think Bruce would be angry there too. But when push came to shove, she at least at some point brought him to Bruce because she thought it was in her son's best interests.
Athena actively lead Annabeth away from Bruce and into the streets at the age of seven, which Bruce would never see as in her best interest, whatever Athena's godly perspective is, however badly he reacted after Jason's death, even though he couldn't see (and dismissed the idea of) the spiders and the monsters. She was seven. In the streets of Gotham.
Athena let Annabeth fight a major role in two wars back to back without being there to train her or protect her or love her or even advise her. Athena advocated for the cold blooded murder of the other children who had actually tried to keep his daughter safe. Athena sent Annabeth against Arachne when Athena's children have universally died on that quest for a thousand years.
Athena let Bruce think he had gotten Annabeth killed because of his own inability to handle his grief. Let him think his daughter was dead or worse for years. Would have let him keep thinking that if the Fates didn't have other plans.
And just, in true fashion for all of my ideas on a PJO x DC crossover, everyone really comes out more traumatized than before. This includes Bruce.
Because now he wasn't just used unknowingly for a child just once, but twice. And in both cases he's going to have to live forever with the guilt of not having been able to protect his kids from what their other parent wanted to make of them
(On top of all the ways he has directly failed them and made any complexes worse, of course )
#bruce wayne#annabeth chase#annabeth wayne#athena#pjo x dcu#dcu x pjo#again I have to reiterate that I actually do think Athena loves her daughter#I just think that to a human a god's love is inevitably going to look cruel#because they don't and can't love in the same way#giving your child opportunity for Kleos and sending them to a teacher is a love to a goddess#whereas a human parent might never want their child to fight or suffer at all#and even with Bruce's whole Batman and Robin situation#he a) still felt guilt and went back and forth over it multiple times#and b) he was at least trying to guide them and accompanied them into the field and deliberately tried to give them whatever tools they#needed to be both moral and safe#Athena doesn't see a difference between what she did and Bruce's crusade but he absolutely doe#this post is obviously very much more Bruce's POV of course#Athena would have her own but I am biased#'love the way a goddess loves not the way a person loves' - but Rev aren't the gods people#Not fully#I don't think they can be; they're too vast#Behind their personalities they're all personification#so yes and no but not enough#as for bruce reacting badly after Jason's death#I generally don't think he *hurt* her which I've seen some choose to write based on him hitting Dick#but someone in fic wrote a HC that he blamed her at first bc she knew Jason was sneaking out and didn't say and I took that and ran with it#& after his initial outburst he freezes her out bc his anger scares him & he thinks keeping her at a distance will protect her from that#not knowing that she's already internalized that guilt AND already felt prior to this that Bruce was abandoning her in favor of being Batma
