it's too crowded in there. when you step outside you're confronted by a hole in the middle of your vision. your eyes bounce off of it, there's a void. your mind tries to fill it with background noise.

next to this void, holding hands with this void, is the spouse of the witch you offended and you realize it's her. the witch you're no longer allowed to perceive is here before you for the first time since she's laid this spell. at least the first time you noticed. how many times by now have your eyes bounced off of her, blissfully unaware?

looking from the void, to the spouse, all you can muster is an empty “hello”. is the witch mortified, you wonder, that she accidentally walked right into the center of your field of vision? she probably wasn't expecting to see you here, after the spell that destroyed you. you had hoped to mend yourself more for the next time she saw you. impress her, even. but progress is incremental. and to keep making progress the next step is to go out in the world, meet the witches, dolls, moths, angels that could give you relief. help mend this huge crack in your heart. there's only so much a half-doll can do on its own.

like a good doll, you stare at your toes and hold the door open for the void and its spouse. they hesitate and you peek up. the spouse stares, like you're some ghost. the void you can only imagine. it probably looks beautiful. resplendent. you are so small and miserable. why did you come. your friend is inside, in the crowd. why did you leave them. you can't be alone. but now the void and its spouse have gone inside so if you want to find your friend you'll have to follow them back in.

you collect yourself outside for a few moments, giving them time to find a place to loom, and then venture back into the party.

Ghostly Case

When Richard Grayson was asked to investigate the murder of Daniel Fenton he didn't think much of it. Sure, it was extremely sad, but Dick was a cop, he saw cases like that every day, it was a little unusual to be asked to investigate it directly but that was okay.

Dick didn't know the rabbit hole he had gone down. There were so many complications, and none of the witnesses were cooperating, the boy's family refused to see his body!!!, to make matters worse someone had stolen the damn corpse.

So yeah, Dick couldn't be blamed for bringing Nightwing into the case, maybe Bruce would scold him later but he didn't care, Nightwing had resources that Officer Grayson didn't and that was all that mattered.

When he finally thought he had figured something out a ghost appeared in his apartment, scared and asking for help. Of course the case was more complicated, what did he expect?

But Dick had never been able to say no to a scared teenager and he wasn't about to start now.

In general the rank of prime and the dynamics between the various primes in TFA specifically is such a fun thing to think about, especially in the context of the TFA primes we don't see a whole lot of

I'm not saying you need to get hit in the face in order to write a good fight scene but...after I got punched in the face for the first time, a lot of things made sense all of a sudden.

That moment of hesitation before everyone starts moving, like 'Oh yeah, we're supposed to care that the engaged feather fainted.'

It is Heller who produces one of the most extraordinarily Gothic images of what happens when corporate man is hollowed out, and more particularly of the ghosts and phantoms that inevitably come to populate the vacated space.

Last post for tonight but miu is such an interesting but really concerning character bc sure half the time shes making a sex joke but the other half its stuff with really concerning implications. Why is your first idea in a stressful situation looking for drugs to lose yourself. Lets come back to the almost cutting herself open to prove that shes made of wires and acring like she got hit when shuichi was concerned. WHY DO YOU THINK YOU JAVE TO OFFER YOURSELF UP LIKE MEAT WHEN SOMEONE IS NICE TO YOUUUU
