#BUT NOW I HAVE A FEW OF THESE AND I’M AS EXCITED TO MAKE THEM AS I USED TO BE WHEN I STARTED THIS BLOG

Real Robins Can Fly

( a dc x dp prompt)

As a part of a charity event, Bruce holds a cosplay contest where contestants show off their cosplays, explain their processes and even show off a little if they have a talent of some sort that kind of fits the theme of the character.

Problem? Everyone he invited to be judges at the event are league members and they all had a case suddenly interfere so Bruce and his colleagues can’t show up. So he asks Dick to round up as many of his siblings as he can to be judges for this event. The lineup ends up being Dick, Jason, Tim, Stephanie and Damian. Duke was almost able to make it but he got caught up with work.

Dick was surprised that Damian even wanted to come considering he was drowning himself in studying for his finals. He was about to graduate high school and wanted to make sure his gpa was flawless. Nevertheless, he found a way to drag his youngest brother out of the library and into the judges panel.

The contest was fine. Most people dressed as local vigilantes or villains that were easy to recognize. There were some really good ones. There were a few that none of them recognized. A few only Tim recognized. Apparently they were from animes or something.

The day dragged on and on, all of them having to stop for breaks at different points. Dick needed to get up and walk around because sitting in one place for too long made his joints hurt. Jason had to leave to do breathing exercises when a really accurate second Robin cosplayer came through holding a crowbar of all things. Tim had to leave a few times to make phone calls as co CEO of Wayne Enterprises. Steph called the babysitter (Cass) a few times about her now 2 year old daughter. And Damian used every single one of those breaks to cram in more studying.

What nothing that day could have prepared them for was the last contestant. The 13 year old boy walked onto the stage with a huge smile in a perfect replica of Dick’s very first Robin suit. Down to the last detail everything was correct. Except that… it had been torn up and damaged in places and there were painted on bruises and wounds in the places missing fabric. Part of the mask was ripped off and being held in the boy’s hand. And the face underneath that broken mask looked just like Tim.

Tim: *after recovering faster than everyone else* Wow. What a suit! What’s your name and tell the process of creating your cosplay.

Danny: *smiles* I’m Danny! I’m 13 years old and I wanted to be Robin! Robin is my favorite vigilante because he’s an inspirational figure for younger people. I decided to design my outfit based on the very first Robin in his first ever suit that he was spotted in but I wanted to pay homage to all of the Robins so I changed it up a little bit. I studied the Robins from the past in photos and was able to come up with at least one thing from each.

Steph: I see. Could you show us these homages?

Danny: YES! *his eyes glowed green in excitement, catching Jason and Damian off guard* I designed the suit itself to look like the first Robin as he was the pioneer of the Robin title but I made the entire outfit from materials only used on the current Robin. As you can see the color scheme for the suit is more muted than the original as the current Robin uses shadows and corners more for attacks than the others did.

Damian: *smiles slightly*

Danny: I chose my wounds and distresses in the costume based on photos of the second and third Robins. They took more physical blows than the rest did. *pointing to each wound, pointing to one in the abdomen* This one is just a theory of mine but I think the third Robin might of at one point had a surgery around here from his fighting style. He would protect his abdomen from attack more.

Tim: …… I see.

Danny: And the fourth Robin was a deviation from the pattern because she was a girl that didn’t have the dark hair that all the others had. She wasn’t Robin for very long but her style and decision making were more unpredictable than the rest so if you just give me a second… *fidgets with his gloves for a moment* Whole watching her footage I noticed how her hair was accounted for in her fighting style without it ever getting into her way. *slides off his glove* So on my wrist I have a replica of the headband she used in her suit but smaller so it’s more of a bracelet.

Steph: *noticing how accurate it is* Oh- wow-

Jason: That’s really impressive Danny. Tell us a little bit more about how you actually created the suit. Your process.

Danny: Well the entire thing is made of an armored flex material that I made in my sister’s basement. I studied pictures of all of the Robin suits and noticed parts of the fabric that stood out and made my prototype from there. *smiles* I have a small sample for you guys to pass around! *hands Jason said sample*

Jason: Oh that’s really impressive-

Tim: You said you made it in your sister’s basement? How did your parents feel about it?

Danny: My parents are gone. It’s just me and Jazz. I spent all of my money on the materials to make this. I’m hoping to win because the prize money will be enough for her to buy a car so she can find a new job. And maybe with the rest I’ll finally be able to go to space camp this summer. I’ve always wanted to go! But we could never afford it.

Steph: *covers her gasp softly* Oh-

Damian: Did you have a talent you wanted to show off for us today?

Danny: YES! *pumps his fist excitedly*

Damian: Could you demonstrate that for us please?

Danny: Okay! *climbs up the light tower next to the stage and hangs from the metal bars like a proper gymnast before jumping off, flipping and grabbing frames and pieces of rigging to swing from, replicating old tricks Dick used to do as Robin that he learned in the circus before flipping down and landing nimbly in the center of the stage* Tadah!

Dick: *absolutely shook* Why did you- choose that as your talent?

Danny: Real robins can fly. So why can’t I?

After Danny leaves the stage, it takes a few minutes for them all to collect themselves from that. Especially Dick.

Steph: So that Danny kid is gonna win.

Tim: 100 percent. He was able to recreate the fabric we make our suits out of through pictures!

Jason: We better not tell Bruce or-

Damian: Too late. I already texted father. He’s drafting adoption papers as we speak.

Dick: *who was planning on doing that himself* Dammit!

Damian: I for one, am thrilled at the prospect that this Danny child will take up the Robin mantle when I leave for college.

Steph: Well real robins can fly so why shouldn’t he? *smiles*

Dick: Stephanie I’m literally going to cry.

so can we talk about jikook now 😭

Ask #2

the amount of crash outs happening these past few days lol https://x.com/jikookreports/status/1937517826106921229

lmao, where to even start oh my god 😭 sorry this is going to be all over the place

they just spent 18 months together but the first thing they wanted to do post-military was travel together (and feed swans)? so not only are they not sick of each other after all that, they actually wanted to spend more time together? All of the other members have been doing solo activities, traveling solo, meeting up with their other friends, but somehow jikook, the only two members who were never separated, are the ones traveling together? For over a week? 😭 and they’re being all cute, giggly, and happy?

i mean, it’s not surprising because it’s jikook, but it’s still one of those times where they randomly do something crazy that not even jikookers were anticipating. and they really, actually don’t get sick of each other, which is also crazy to me. you would have to get along with someone so well to be able to spend that much time with them and in all those different situations too. we again already knew that about jikook, but every time i’m reminded it still surprises me for some reason. it’s why the story of JK going to jimin’s room for hours to hang out has always been one of my favorites. being so close with someone that you literally seek them out just because you find comfort in their presence is just so…

if it really is ays i’m going to go even more crazy because they genuinely love that show so much and that’s always made me so soft. they had so much fun making it, coming up with the title, the little catchphrase, giggling over their mishaps and hoping armys would find it funny. they really loved those trips. i think they also loved it because it was their thing that they created together, if that makes sense. i thought they were even a little protective of it in jeju lol. i just think it’s sweet how much they loved it, so if they really wanted to continue it first thing out of the military? like they mentioned having all these late night conversations about their future plans, so were they really in their talking about taking trips together again too? 😭 no clue if ays is actually what they’re doing or if it’s something else but i’m excited either way. I’m really just glad it looks like they’re taking it easy and having fun, no matter what they’re up to.

also that dance challenge video was peak jikook. everything about it gives me cute aggression. how can they have so much fun just recording a little dance challenge? what do you even focus on, there’s just so many cute little moments? jk down there on the ground and the silly camera angles and the humming and giggling. they’re just so cute and playful, and what exactly are they laughing about? the way they STILL just have so much fun doing whatever together? and seeing jimin dance again was like crack, he’s just amazing, i can’t wait to see him back on stage. i’m glad that he posted because there’s nothing better than getting confirmation straight from the source so yeah i guess those of us who were holding back can freely scream now lmao 😭

genuinely so curious what they’re up to and where all they’ve been but i guess we’ll find out eventually it’s just nice to know that they’re having fun. hopefully people will give them space and privacy. so curious if jimin will actually go to the dior show! also i would die if what they’re doing has anything to do with music. i kind of doubt it but that would be awesome. honestly it’s just nice to be reminded they’re free and out of there and we’re going to be getting any kind of content from them lol (solo or duo or ot7, even random social media updates).

but it’s a really cute way to close out their military service considering they traveled together right before they enlisted and that was partially the theme of the show. in sapporo it even felt heavy at times because it was clearly on their mind and on top of everything else they were using the trip as a way to make memories to look back on while they were in there (something they literally voiced). it really is full circle that the first thing they wanted to do was travel together again. that might be the format they feel comfortable sharing their military stories with us considering they can edit out anything that they’re not supposed to share. idk, there’s just so much to unpack, but we still really have no idea what’s up so 😭 it might not be anything like we’re expecting too, or it might not be content at all who knows.

and yeah we’re about to see the most insane crash outs 🥴 although i guess they’ve already started crashing out. i haven’t been online too much yet so i haven’t seen the scope of it but the link you sent + i know especially JJKs were really upset leading up to this already. i think other people have already articulated and called out how insane and entitled those sorts of fans are. it’s genuinely crazy to see them threaten to unstan because jkk are hanging out when they’ve always been like this. not sure what else jikook are going to have to do for these people to understand that they genuinely just enjoy being around each other. was enlisting together and talking about relying on each other not clear enough? JK calling ays the best trips of his life or talking about doing twelve more seasons not enough? it’s also kind of pathetic that they have to make everything about “fanservice” instead of just acknowledging that jikook are, i don’t know, friends? 🥴 they’d really shade the person they supposedly stan instead of just admitting jikook enjoy hanging out together. or do they really just see all their interactions as romantic?

they’re just constantly trying to gaslight themselves that jikook hate each other so they can feel better about their own feelings/ship. Or they're so narcissistic they can’t help but project their own feelings onto jikook and fully believe it’s reality. those sorts of fans just want to control them, live vicariously through them and their careers, and have no care or respect for them as individuals and human beings. and the fans crashing out about wanting music instead, it’s so stupid because they’re obviously going to be working on music and other solo projects soon (they could even be doing that right now). so it’s not about that, it’s just that THEY can’t stand jkk being close which is so pathetic. and no, i don’t have any issue with people just not being interested in certain content (some ppl straight up just don’t like non-music content in general and that’s fine), but that’s not the situation with these “fans”.

also those anti-jikook narratives are just so ridiculous and stupid and they look even crazier post military. jikook very clearly have autonomy to do whatever they want to do, just like all the other members are doing right now. they’re trying to come up with all these excuses for a possible ays season 2 instead of considering that jikook just enjoyed making it and wanted to do it again. or whatever they’re doing together is simply because it’s something they want to do. the company cant force any of them to do shit 😭 (which is funny because if tkkrs could they would absolutely make the company force tkk to do a subunit since they’re so obsessed with trying to demand it even though if tkk wanted to they just would). trust if this was a calculated move by the company then we’d be getting ot7 content or tkk content, not jkk when literally their solos hate each other the most, there already is jkk content, and when they’re the most disliked duo in the fandom (obviously they have a ton of fans, but no duo is actively disliked more than jkk either). literally saw some armys tkkrs actually whining about it being more likely that we get a jkk subunit before tkk as if that’s a normal response to seeing jkk hanging out together. this fandom man…

another thing is that jikook aren’t oblivious to the fact that there are a lot of people who don’t like seeing them together. but they clearly don't care 😭. i’m sure they know the situation with each others solos, and even shippers to an extent. the fact that their first activity out of the military is doing something together just shows how little regard they have for any fans that dislike or diminish their friendship and that they will continue to do whatever the hell they want. i just think that’s so cool? they stay unbothered and catering to no one but genuine fans who appreciate them for who they are and respect them doing whatever they want to do.

just kind of rambling now, but i also think it’s cool how they’re fine with their branding having this much overlap? because yeah jikook are being associated a lot with each other officially lately. that’s honestly just because they’re close and enjoy doing things together and i don’t think anything more to it than that. but basically everything post military has been jikook. their whole official press conference return, their return live, their photobooth pictures and first social media posts (has JK even posted anything other than JM yet? sorry if i’m forgetting 😭). jimin has posted jk several times now (still soft about him using still with you), and now their first official activity might be something together.

i really hope this isn’t taken the wrong way. obviously they are very serious about their solo careers which are wholly their own and have nothing to do with the other and i’m expecting them to go all in on that soon. not claiming at all they don’t want to be seen as individuals because they very much do and should be and i can’t wait for jjk2 and pjm3 and their solo concerts. they work so insanely hard on their solo carers and i know that they're both workaholics and probably already have a bunch of insane stuff planned. i hate when people try to associate everything they do with the other. but it’s cool that they also just… i don’t know, don’t mind it to this degree? are cool with this level of association? that it’s just kind of happening naturally because they’re just… genuinely close like that lol? despite the fact that so many people hate seeing them together, which is something i’m sure they know?

well, this is getting away from me a bit, just happy about jikook and happy all of bts are finally free, solo content coming (very likely jjk2 and tour and im sure jm will also hopefully do something 🙏), group album possibly as soon as march. it’s nice to have these things to gush about and look forward to especially with everything else going on in the world right now 🫠 seeing jimin dancing again was healing and jikook’s giggles were healing and them feeding swans is so patented jikook wholesome lol and also healing. and also they’ve both just seemed so incredibly happy in every piece of content post-military and that’s so nice to see? that dance challenge was really everything because it’s just nice to see them silly and playful and happy. jimin’s silliness in that video and then the way he clocked in for the last half? i know they’re both itching to get back on stage which has me so excited as a fan as well.

and yeah it’s nice that i can finally unleash lol because i didn’t want to get all sappy on it until there was some sort of confirmation, because they do make me really soft. just kind of amazing to have someone in life you love and connect with that much, whatever type of love, it’s just really warm and rare to find. it’s insane that some people are so nasty inside that they begrudge them that closeness because they’re selfish and insecure when they clearly provide so much support and happiness to each other. but anyways glad as always that jikook continue to do their thing, and i’m really excited for ch3.

dragon - wolfstar - @wolfstarmicrofic - word count: 350

The dragon is enormous.

Well, not enormous in the way Sirius is used to thinking of dragons. It is actually decently tiny. Small enough a child can enjoy it. There is no sulfur stench. No scorching heat. No blood-wet talons. There isn’t a screech to be heard outside of metal and scheduled pre recorded noises. But it is big enough to make the children scream in delight and clutch their parents’ hands as it rears its metallic head. So overall…it’s a nice ride.

Its wings are bronze and skeletal. Smoke puffs from hidden vents. Every few seconds it lets out a mechanical roar that makes Sirius grin so wide his face hurts.

“Look at it,” he whispers, tugging Remus closer by the sleeve. “It moves. Like it’s real. Look at that…look at it! It’s like magic!”

Remus rolls his eyes. He’s always been a bit more subtle in his excitement. He folds his arms and squints at the gears turning under the chest plate. “Animatronics. Not magic. Not even close. You should know that, Pads.”

“Oh, piss off.” Sirius elbows him. “It’s brilliant.”

Remus snorts. “You’re worse than the toddlers sometimes.”

Sirius glances down. A small child in a glittering plastic crown is gazing up at the dragon with rapture. Sirius gives them a solemn nod. He then turns to Remus again with eyes lit like stars.

“I always wanted a dragon.”

Remus blinks. “You don’t need one, love. Already have all the components that make up one right here.” He taps his temple with his finger. “The drama. The fire. The dangerous mood swings.”

Sirius grins. “You think I’m dangerous?”

“I think you’re going to hop the railing and climb into that beast’s mouth if I don’t stop you.”

“No faith in me, Moony.”

Remus threads their fingers together, warm and certain. “None at all.”

Sirius kisses his cheek. “Love you”

Remus sighs. “Love you too…now come on. We went to this Muggle shopping centre for that new chocolate and I’ll be damned if they run out before we get there.”

Sirius cannot help but grin. “Lead the way.”

Omg can you do reader doing izuku’s skincare pls that’d be so cute thank youu! ❤️❤️

doing your skincare routine on izuku

izuku has always watched you do your skincare routine ever since you began dating. it always fascinates him what certain products can do to the skin, and how the outcomes can differ based on someone’s skin type. he’s never outright asked you to do your skincare routine on his, however. he doesn’t want you wasting any products on him.

but when you’re both scrolling through your phone and cuddled up together, you randomly look up at him from his chest, and his heart flutters.

“can i do my skincare routine on you?”

he eagerly nods with a big smile and hops up from the bed with excitement. you walk him to the girls' bathroom and take your skincare bag out of your locker, then head to the sink.

izuku hesitates walking into the girls’ bathroom, not wanting any of his classmates to think he’s a creep like mineta. he reluctantly states with a frown, “i don’t think i’m allowed to be in here, i don’t want to get you in trouble.

you playfully roll your eyes and make a waving signal with your hand, and he shamefully comes over to you. you grin, “i don’t think you’ll get in trouble. no one will tell on us to the teachers, and if any of our classmates find out, they’ll know we’re just doing skincare.”

he nods, and remembers you always dip your face in the sink, but before that, he politely asks, “do you have the clips you wear?”

you nod and grab the pink hair clips from your bag, and swipe away izuku’s soft, green bangs. you clip them to the side with your hair clips, and he smiles with a soft ‘thank you.’

izuku remembers most of your skincare routine, so he already goes ahead and dips his face in the sink, turning on the faucet and getting his face wet. once he’s done, some of his hair is wet, and you giggle. he waits expectantly for your cleanser, and you pour some into his hand, telling him to rub it over and into his face, including his neck.

he does as you say and faces you again, though with his eyes closed. he knows sometimes you open your eyes after cleansing, and it stings, so he rinses his face again, making sure there’s no soap left. now his face is dripping wet and partially soaking his shirt, creating a wet spot near his neckline.

you give him a soft towel and gently pat down his face then ask, “dry?” and he nods, finally opening his eyes again. his eyelashes are a bit wet and clumped together from the water.

then, you put in his hand a bottle of toner, and point, “this is toner, it basically balances your pH and hydrates your skin. ooh, it also makes your skin super shiny! you don’t have to put too much on, though.”

he pauses, not pouring it into his hand, but instead asking you, “can you do it for me?”

you stare at him before smiling, and when you pour some onto your fingers, then gently rub it onto his face. his cheeks turn redder by the second, flustered by your hands caressing his face. after, you say, “we have to wait a few minutes for it to soak into your skin, then we can put on the serum.”

he grins, beaming up at you, “that’s the one that mostly helps with acne, right?”

you nod, and after a few minutes of waiting, you squeeze some serum into your hand from a dropper and gently pat it onto izuku’s face. again, his big cheeks puff out proudly and happily, still turning redder as the seconds pass by.

once you’re done, you announce, “last step is moisturizer,” and he grins. you’ve used that on him multiple times, it’s probably the one he’s most familiar with.

and when a few more minutes go by, you squeeze some moisturizer onto your fingertips and rub it on his skin. he slightly shivers, it’s cold, and he scrunches up his nose once you put it over his bridge. you let out a soft laugh, and he revels in the quiet noise.

so he opens his eyes once your fingers leave his face, and he already misses them. he feels a lot cleaner already, and before you know it his soft lips are already on yours, but he’s careful. he doesn’t want to get his wet skin on yours.

but after he thanks you for doing his skincare, and you’ve put away all your supplies, including the hairpins, you expect it to be the last time you’ll do your skincare on him. however, the next night, he’s asking you to do it again, and you’re not complaining in the slightest.

hope u liked this, thank you for requesting it

If there’s anyone who has the range it’s Jonathan Bailey. The 37-year old has defined himself as one of the most versatile actors of his generation—a Shakespearean actor (he came up in The Royal Shakespeare Company) with unparalleled comedic timing and a penchant for working with female auteurs (Michaela Coel’s Chewing Gum and Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s Crashing), who can sing and dance (Wicked) and be a leading man (Bridgerton) now corral dinosaurs (the July 2 blockbuster Jurassic World Rebirth). So what does the man who does it all do to unwind? A Martini spritz. Bailey is the Martini Man, helming the brand’s Off Script summer campaign. We chatted about his drink of the summer, The Row flip flops, and resetting between projects.  Nicolaia Rips: Hi! Where are you right now? Jonathan Bailey: I’m in New York. It’s so hot. I am desperate for Martini Bianco spritz, too early, but this is perfect weather.  You’re also right in the middle of the Jurassic press tour. I feel like Helen Hunt in Twister. You know, when she’s in the calm, the eye of the storm. We arrived on Friday, so I’ve had a really lovely couple of days just to relax. Though, I think it’s going to be a record heat wave since 1888. So, how do you do red carpet fashion in that heat…bikinis? We’re huge fans of your The Row flip flops.  I’ve never been more sure of an outfit. You know when you wear an outfit and you’re like: This is it. Do you ever go method dressing? The Wicked press tour felt more fantastical. It depends on the world you’re inhabiting. I think Jurassic Park permeated such a massive moment in culture. The ‘90s nostalgia is such a sweet spot for me and for Emma Morrison, who’s my stylist. It’s about sort of celebrating the ‘90s—that’s what Jurassic World Rebirth is all about. It’s a love letter to those formative Spielberg films, but also a culture that’s thriving.  Tell me about going “Off Script.” Going “Off Script” to me, is about creating space to make different choices, especially when traveling or having time away from work and with friends. It’s so easy, just doing the same thing and being told what to do, that actually, when you step outside of that, where you don’t make plans, the anticipation is greater. That feeling of discovery is what “Off Script” is. I don’t know what came first, my inability to be able to make plans or the joy of being off plan, but I think I’ll always be someone who thrives in going off script. You’ve moved through so many different worlds, theater, film, television. How do you prepare yourself? There’s always that sort of deep breath you take before you start actively working on anything, before you take the perilous plunge into preparation. But it’s different for every single project, and just rotating between the three of them, the variety, is what makes things exciting. Theater, particularly, is just so demanding—bodily, mind and spirit— there’s an element of creative survival as well. It all sharpens your toolkit. My last question: How do you drink your martinis? With my mouth. No, but this is the summer of the Martini Bianco Spritz. I just had an amazing holiday after finishing the play. My friends came over, we had a few weeks together. We just drank Martini spritzes, had the best time chatting, had a little boogie. It’s all nostalgic but very present.

thoughts on Chrome in Beyblade X Ep. 38

Okay before anything and before I end up ranting I GIGGLE EVERYTIME I SEE CHROME AND SIGRID ON SCREEN TOGETHER NOW. The time they spend together is usually her looking like she’s silently judging Chrome and not understanding why he’s so…. obsessed? with Jaxon. The fact she was like “oh you’re watching someone else’s match? That’s unusual for you” AND THEN SAYS “is Blader X… on your mind?” HER TONE. HER TONE. I AM GOING TO SCREAM.

okay back to actually analyzing

The fact we don’t see ANY part of Chrome’s face except his smile is, well, concerning to say the least. It’s like he’s slowly losing himself and his identity in the process. I noticed how in Proof of the Fastest and in this episode he mentioned “X” but he wasn’t talking about Blader X. Like he’s talking about a concept itself, because he says “it” and not “him.” Or maybe I’m reading too much into this? But it’s like he’s trying to become whatever this “X” is. This honestly makes the message at the beginning of the episodes creepier where it speaks “X, whatever it is, is in your hands.” Well, Chrome has this “X” in his HEART. He was clutching at his chest talking about how “the only true X is deep within me” and we see a little ball of light amidst this ocean like interior. Whatever “X” really is, Chrome is. Well. He’s going a little insane about it.

I mean, look how he’s leaning towards the glass. He’s not casually viewing the match like it’s a basketball match you’d casually view and cheer for a team or see how it’s going. He’s actively invested, he’s emotionally invested. One hand is clutching at his chest again, the other is holding onto the glass, almost like he just wants to get out there and actually be in the vicinity of the stadium, close to it to view.

Hey that’s actually CRAZY Chrome is slowly losing it through the episodes

Back onto the concept of X though, I do think that it does tie in with Jaxon though. X can mean a lot of things, but after Jaxon left, Chrome was starting to, well, not take it well it seems from what we’ve seen so far. So it does make sense “X” would relate to Jaxon in a way. Still, it’s like Chrome’s going for a part of this “X” that Jaxon has.

Remember how I said how Chrome clutches at his chest when he talks about “X”? In the 34th ep where we meet Sigrid, Chrome talks about how Jaxon was “definitely there” and how Chrome “felt him, right here” as his hand tightens. The same place where “X” is.

what am I going on about again help me

I also wonder why Sigrid is pretty much, well, indifferent to this behavior? Has she always known this side of Chrome and wasn’t bothered by it? Or does she just not care in the first place? They are teammates, but why hasn’t she up and went like Jaxon? What is her goal? Did she just want to stop at the top of the X just like Chrome and defend their championship? Has Chrome asked her to stay by his side? Or is Sigrid trying to help him out? Is she genuinely concerned for him? I have SO many questions and not enough answers.

also….

WHAT IN THE DAGGER DRAN WAS THIS.

We see Blader Y returning! Or at least I’m pretty sure that’s them.

I’m PRETTY sure that’s the same fit. Also. That hand. If Blader Y is Chrome. I. Will not. Be able to react properly. CHROME RYUGU IF THAT IS YOU I’M GOING TO SHIT MY PANTS.

I mean sure skin color isn’t something we should automatically go by as evidence, but who else in this show has that exact skin??? And also the elephant in the room— not the one Robin rode on after Zip and Zoom— WHO ELSE’S HAND WOULD CRACK IN A MANNER THAT MADE ME PHYSICALLY CRINGE SEEING THE MATCH BETWEEN QUINN AND JAXON?

that aside for a moment I like the backpack Blader Y has. This show should really sell merch other than Beyblades, I would buy Team Persona plushies in a heartbeat and the Blader’s masks. Though I know it couldn’t just happen like that unfortunately. Maybe an acrylic stand at least, one day… I can only dream.

can we tell I’m normal about Chrome

also, please no spoilers. I beg of you. None. I just wanted to speculate, thank you.

3 years ago my partner was deployed overseas and couldn’t come home for the birth because the military didn’t want to spend so much time quarantining their soldiers. Fortunately I had help as my parents were watching my son (at the time just a month shy of 2) for a few days before my due date and we had moved across the street from my partner’s parents when we found out about the deployment. So I had his mom with me at the hospital holding up her phone while we got to have a rare video call with my partner as we welcomed our daughter into the world after a very quick labor. I then had two months with our two very little kids by myself before he came home. It was an incredibly hectic time and I’m still not quite sure how I was able to get through all of that but here we are with the sweetest little 3 year old (let’s call her C) we could have asked for 🥰

C loves to play dress up and she has specific characters she’ll play as where you can’t refer to her as her name or she’ll get mad. She’s not C she’s Dr C or Baby or Baby Kitty or Princess Bucket (this was her first character and yes she does put a bucket on her head as a crown). Her favorite game to play is hide and seek and she loves dance parties and drawing and she’s obsessed with her 1 year old sister. We love C so much and I’m so excited to see how she grows and changes and learns over this next year ❤️

I’ve been itching to do some crafting lately but I had no real ideas on what to make and I guess my brain got tired of that because I spent several hours today creating stencils, covering them in tape to protect them, tracing them, cutting things out and coloring four different sizes of question marks.

You know, because like a normal person I want my room to look like Riddler fucking exploded all over it. And I am so tickled by the idea that I can make a few of these at a time and put them up, so that it’s like a slow takeover. And also that they will probably look different over time which furthers that they didn’t all go up at once. And of course I am thrilled thinking about Riddler spending days upon days locked up in his apartment hand making question marks for every riddle room, because of course he is extra like that. And as I make mine I get to be just like him for real.
