"Jason even if he didn't get adopted by Bruce, wouldn't have had a normal life"

"Jason was trying to steal the batmobile's tires, batman knew if he didn't adopt jason he would've had a worse life"

Like flashpoint/father todd isn't literally right there💀

(For context:father todd was basically an au ver of jason todd introduced in a flashpoint comic where he wasn't found by batman thus continuing to live in crime alley and didn't become robin and eventually became a gang member but then left that life behind to become a priest)

But Sherlock extended his right hand. If John shook hands with him with his left hand, it would look very strange. Normally, people would not put their palms against the back of the other person's hand when shaking hands

So I’ve been rewatching the entire series while taking note of John’s hand tremors and then I came to this scene

We can see his right hand clenching in reaction to Sherlock’s offer for a handshake. But the thing is, that’s not the tremor hand. That’s not the hand that would start to shake whenever he’s feeling weak, helpless, vulnerable. The tremor always happens in his left hand, as Mycroft would confirm:

I do love the right-hand clench. It’s an understandable reaction; that hand is going to touch his beloved’s for possibly the last time in his life. But it’s not what I’ve specifically been looking out for. I’m looking for the hand that trembles when he’s reminded of how much war had changed him,

the hand that trembles as he’s begging for his best friend to not be dead,

and the hand that trembles when he has to confront the lies of the woman he’d made his wife.

It’s a shame we can’t see his left hand when Sherlock offers that final handshake. Like if it starts acting up and is shaking like crazy we wouldn’t know because it’s hidden from vie-OH WAIT NEVERMIND I DID SEE IT

Conclusions: Martin Freeman’s acting is fucking ridiculous, and the tarmac scene can go straight to hell

Tbh...

Aces dream just makes it more of an incentive for him to gain a White Rabbit inspired dimension travel or portal travel UM.

Like, that's his dream, his biggest wish, what he thinks most about.

He has to develop one now.

[cloffmoff]

someone has totally already said this but I've been thinking about it nonstop so here I go,,,

so it's a popular aphmau fandom theory that the characters are predisposed to have similar things happen to them in most lifetimes/universes (aph getting into intense relationship drama, zane and garroth - plus vylad - being troubled brothers, travis getting possessed by a demon)

and if you think about it, dante's 'thing' is getting left behind while everyone goes on a big adventure and they come back different. in mcd, obviously, aph tells him to stay and watch over the village, and Dante waits for 15 years while aph's group is in the irene dimension. When they come back, they are scarred and dante is 15 years older. there is a rift between Dante and all his old friends.

but the thing I don't see many people talking about is how THIS REPEATS IN MYSTREET! everyone on the street (but laurance, however Dante ignores him) leaves to Starlight and tells him they'll be back in no time, just 3 weeks. And they end up getting locked down, hunted, controlled, everything. Dante sits on a deserted street just waiting for his friends to come home while he gets more and more stir-crazy.

That's just dante's fate, to be left behind, waiting, while his loved ones get themselves killed and changed.

In season 7, I would love for there to be Dante angst (FINALLY) around everyone leaving him and coming back different. Especially Travis, his best friend and roommate, coming back absolutely traumatized.

If you like this observation, I would recommend 'Meanwhile On Mystreet' which is a rly good ao3 fic about Dante, laurance and friends trying to keep themselves occupied while everyone is on Starlight during Season 6.

Cleo is such such Such an interesting character not because she cares too little or because they care So Much but because they somehow do both At Once.

Cleo does not care about their chances of winning. They do not care about their stuff, they don't even care about their lives really- not compared to The Bit. (which is necessary for all Lifers to care about)

But Cleo really, Really, cares about their team mates.

Like, more than Anything Else, Cleo cares about her team. I keep flashing back to her response to Etho and Scar's deaths in Secret and Limited life. It's this quiet, Furious, kind of determination. Cleo Knows they're not gonna beat the odds, they're already dead, they're outmatched on all fronts, but they still bear down and say "Alright. So they've chosen Death."

It's this complete 180 from earlier; dragging Wardens to the surface, laughing about dying together. To this Dead serious, complete dedication to Surviving Long Enough For Revenge.

(juxtapose to when they Themselves die, which they usually do laughing in the afterlife, or with a kinda annoyed sigh of 'that's fair.' Granted, it's how most Lifers go. They're all good sports.)

And that's why so many people can 'wrong them' in worse ways that BigB ever did (took one life, felt bad about it after) with almost no reaction but she'll never Ever forgive him. Because he was their Team Mate, their Friend, and that means he was Cleo's Entire Goal.

language issue on three's part... i imagine octarian is similar to japanese, so what three's trying to say is "eight, i love you" so she used "aishiteru" which is technically correct, but it's rather dramatic and formal, so eight is quite flustered

neurons (roman godfrey x reader)

WARNINGS: 18+, mentions of sex, foul language, author knows nothing about neurons lol

summary: Roman Godfrey is most certainly not the best study partner to have the night before an important test. what a shocker (not).

word count: 1,106

a/n: kingkat is BACK!! exams are fucking killing me, so when that is over, you best believe I will be back to my usual uploading schedule!! however, I scrapped this together for y'all (and also for myself because pls I need a Roman to get me through this study period). also, WARNING, I don't know anything about chemistry and neurons, I just had to think about anything other than my test rn which is in 6 hours... ENJOY<33 (also the gif is from @godfreysteel if I remember correctly, pls kick my ass if I'm wrong ouf)

"A neuron is an excitable cell that fires electric signals called action potentials across a neural network in the nervous system. They are located in the brain and..." Roman peeked up from the chemistry book with a rather offended look streaking across his face; "You're not listening to me, are you?"

Realizing I was being spoken to, I raised my head from the bed, flaunting a nervous smile. Honestly, I had nearly dozed off. "I am, I am! I swear, I was just!--"

"Listening with your eyes closed?"

Fuck. With a groan, I buried my face in the duvet I was lying on. "Look, Ro, I really appreciate your help, but I'm not going to learn this the night before the test... We should just give up,"

I knew that Roman Godfrey wasn't known for being the best at school-- however, he was the only person in my contacts who was available at midnight, and I was having the biggest case of brain fog known to man. Nothing was sticking. Seven hours and forty-six minutes until I was supposed to be seated in the auditorium at school, taking the dreaded midterm exam in chemistry, this was my only option. This test was supposed to be notoriously hard, so of course I hadn't bothered looking at it before now. Of course. 

Huffing, Roman spun around in my chair, looking both bored and frustrated. "I'm so glad I took this test last year," he muttered, just like every other senior did when this test had been mentioned over the past few weeks. "I'm aware that I can't help you with much, 'cause you didn't exactly call the designated nerd or something. But now that you've dragged my ass all across town to not sleep with me, you could at least listen?" He moved the chair closer to the bed, leaning over to poke my head. "Think of it like you're listening to an audio book, okay? My voice is nice, after all. Deep and warm, like--"

"Honey?" I chimed in, raising myself to look at him. 

Roman blinked. He looked at me like I was the biggest idiot in the world before he plainly answered; "No. Pussy," 

That was it. Having my fuck-friend teach me chemistry certainly didn't make me the brightest girl in the state. This was a bad idea; I groaned, rolling my eyes as I shifted on the bed, sitting up. "Keep going, then," I said, doing my best not to yawn. "A neuron is an... excited cell?"

Smirking, Roman shook his head-- I wondered whether this made him feel smart. He had taken this test last year and passed it, after all. It wasn't looking like I would be passing it, so did that make Roman Godfrey smarter than me...?

That was a mortifying thought.

"The neuron is an excitable cell, whatever the fuck that means," Roman pointed to the paragraph in the book. "Let me continue, maybe it'll make sense to you if I keep going?" He kicked back in the chair again, leaning his legs on my bed before he lowered his voice, getting into a rather caricatured character of a narrator; "They are located in the brain and spinal cord and help to receive and conduct impulses. Neurons communicate with other cells via synapses, which are specialized connections that commonly use minute amounts of chemical--"

I yawned. Loudly. I couldn't take it anymore.

Roman's eyes shot up from the book, wider than ever. I held my breath, ready to be told off once more for not focusing properly, yet the next words that left his lips were ones of charming amusement; "I see that this isn't making you very... excitable," 

I let out a relieved sigh. "I give up. Could we just fuck instead? That thought makes me excitable,"

Slamming the book shut, Roman grinned. "You never disappoint," he murmured. Getting up from the chair, he motioned for me to lay down again; he didn't waste any time making his way between my legs, pressing soft kisses to my thighs. His words were interrupted with every kiss; "If you don't pass the test-- I'll pay someone to-- tweak your scores. Don't-- worry about it."

My breath hitched as I smiled up at the ceiling. "Why didn't you say that-- fuck, earlier?" I squirmed beneath Roman as he pushed the soft pillows of his lips to my clothed sex, humming. Every kiss, every touch, felt electrocuting; I wondered whether the neurons in my body had anything to do with these bodily reactions. Did they? I had no idea, and I realized I wasn't going to know at the end of the night either. 

"Because," Roman said, a hint of a laugh in his voice as he kissed his way up my body, listening to my nervous giggles of pleasure. "I like feeling-- helpful. No one has ever-- asked me to--" His kisses were getting wetter, more eager; "--revise anything-- with them."

My hands went to his hair, tugging at the tips of his soft, brown locks. "Makes sense," Of course. Who in their right mind would call Roman Godfrey to help them practice for a test? I knew that the only thing on his mind was pussy and... pussy. Along with all the other things about the female body that made him excitable, certainly. 

Roman pressed teasing kisses to my neck, wrapping his arms around my tired body. "Are you gonna call me the next time you have a test?" he purred.

"Um... Depends,"

"On what?"

"On whether I'm planning on taking it seriously," I gave Roman's hair another tug, hoping he'd kiss me properly soon. "If it's a life or death thing, you're probably not gonna get involved. However, if it's another chemistry test..." 

Hovering above me now, Roman nudged my nose with his as he smiled against my lips. "I see where you're going with this, I'll take it. But let me redeem myself, okay?"

"Uh... how?" An impossible task.

"I'll teach you the one thing I actually remember," he breathed. Judging by how quickly his smile turned into a smirk, I could almost foresee the next thing coming from his mouth; "The neurons are connected to the nervous system, so they're responsible for making you feel this." 

Roman's lips pressed against mine for the briefest moment-- it was so gentle, so tentative, that for a second, I thought I had simply imagined it. This wasn't usually how he kissed me. This was different. This was gentle, sincere. My breath felt stuck in my chest as my fist in his hair faltered, feeling as though my body was on fire. 

Fucking neurons, giving me hope that I could both pass the test and have Roman Godfrey for myself. 

(thank u to Wikipedia LMAOOO I would go on and refer to the article like I've been taught but I'm SALTY so no<3 mwah)

another funny world cup clip:

marine is rehabbing with one of the trainers during practice because she's injured. gabby's phone starts blowing up and marine digs through her stuff to turn it off. after, marine jokes with one of the trainers that gabby is a star after performing well in the previous game, so she's being gabby’s agent (since she isn't playing) and was handling calls from the media 😉

(amateur) transcript & translations below

Français / English Marine: Il est où son portable ? Mais il est où son portable ? / Where is her phone? But where is her phone? Marine, to Gabby (off screen): Il est où ? / Where is it ? Marine, walking away: J'ai enfin trouvé son portable ! / I finally found her phone! Marine, to trainer: Y avait le portable de Gabby qui faisait de la sonnerie vu qu’elle a cinquante messages. C'est une star. / Gabby's phone was ringing because she had fifty messages. She's a star. Trainer: Pendant l'entraînement ? / During training? Marine: Elle ne met pas trente points pour rien, tu vois, et donc du coup, elle m’a demandé de l’éteindre, mais le temps que je le trouve… / She doesn’t score thirty points for nothing, you see, and so she asked me to turn [her phone] off, but by the time I found it… Trainer: En fait, tu fais ça quoi ? / Basically, that’s what you’re doing? Marine: Bah je sers pas à grand chose, donc j'essaye de gérer les médias, tu vois, là c'était des appels de L’Équipe. / Well, I’m not really useful, so I'm trying to manage the media, you see, these were calls from L’Équipe (french sports media).

⚠️ DISCLAIMER: i love the FFBB vlogs but they almost NEVER have captions enabled (i’ve only seen them add french captions to gabby’s videos sometimes bc native speakers say her french has a very american accent 😭). i try my best to capture the original quotes and translate them accurately but I am not fluent in french (i’m a simple american i’m sorry)! as a result, any transcriptions or translations i write are subject to human error. please respond and correct me if you find mistakes - it’s highly appreciated!!! ☺️

edit to add: thank you to anon for corrections, they were very helpful! 💗

Day with George.

You have had your white hair cut.

Your son resembles you closely.

Memories slip across

The even landscape.

Gauntlets of close packed road cones,

Heading for the cool zone.

Hearing less, you still make

Plans to set the fiddle flying,

Voice colliding, notions stride,

And bareback stream

Towards their home.

Let us eat our meal

Near sunlight.

With white polystyrene

Apple juice..

Brown slices,

And small packets of

Butter wrapped in gold.

‼️‼️ MAJOR SPOILERS FOR ALIEN STAGE FINALE “KARMA” ‼️‼️

KARMA was so FUCKING GOOD.

I personally loved the MiziSua representations here where Mizi explains how her love for sua is different from the love Sua has for her, but that it still CONTINUE to be LOVE.

One part I specifically loved was when Mizi pressed Till’s chest up to her ear and heard his heartbeat. right after the scene where she asks/begs (?) Isaac to help him, it switches to a scene of Mizi hugging Sua because she was FINALLY ABLE TO HELP SOMEONE SHE LOVES.

GOD WHAT THE FUCK.

ALSO ALSO ALSO Till being alive and JOINING THE REBELLION??? All while Mizi has been missing for SEVEN YEARS???!!!

One thing I did notice, however, was near the end of the episode, when it switches to Isaac’s narration rather than Mizi’s, we see a short clip of blood samples with letters on it— H, L, M, and so on. Could it be that these blood samples are from the original cast (Hyuna, Luka, Mizi, etc) and they’re creating kids from them???

Which I guess would explain Till, at the end of the episode, when he went into the ALNST Museum to rescue the kids was smiling at the kid with Mizi’s hair and Ivan’s expression, because that kid is the combination of the two people he loved the most but couldn’t save? Considering Ivan is dead and Mizi is back to being missing (because the screen displays a picture with Mizi and it says something along the lines of “WHERE IS THE ALNST TRAGEDY CULPRIT?”).

Also in that clip of Mizi’s wanted/missing poster— did Luka die in the fire and is the Luka we see in the poster above Mizi’s another one of his clones or is he still alive? Is he still participating in ALNST 7 years after the ‘tragedy’ or have the Aliens cancelled it altogether?

QUESTIONS QUESTION QUESTIONS. Anyways, that shit was so good, it made me speechless.

currently thinking about the way death’s at my door is staged: TW for brief implied su*c*de attempt/s*lf-h*rm

Pony starts the song while sitting at the top of the church with the knife he just used to cut his hair still in his hands. Pony’s tired and he’s been holed up in that church with nothing but his swirling thoughts to keep him company while Johnny is out getting them more supplies. He starts singing about how death follows him, how he’s a danger to those around him, looking back at himself in the reflection of the switchblade.

Unbeknownst to him, Johnny’s returned with water and has been silently listening. And at that line, finally makes his presence known.

“That’s crazy talk Ponyboy” he says. And Ponyboy comes down to meet him on the next floor down. Pony argues about how he’s cursed and Johnny should “move on” and is “better off without [him]”.

Johnny has heard this before. He’s heard himself say those things before and hearing them coming from Ponyboy is scary. Especially when he sees the way the knife in Pony’s hand trembles, the way his eyes refuse to look at Johnny’s, solely focused on the white knuckle grip he has on the blade.

Johnny has mentioned wanting to disappear to his best friend before and was always met with warmth and love from Ponyboy, assurance that he still wants Johnny around. So that’s what he provides for Ponyboy in this moment. He comes closer, making Ponyboy hear him when he says “the reason i’m living is you,” which finally gets Ponyboy’s attention away from the knife.

And in the way someone would approach a dog with something between its teeth that it shouldn’t have, he holds out his hand. He lets Pony make the choice to give the knife back to him. It’s a reach that conveys Johnny’s worry for what Pony might have done with that blade if he hadn’t come earlier. It’s his relief when Pony gives it back and they close their hands around it in their promise to never leave the other alone.

And they smile because they know that while the world seems scary and dark, they’ll always be there for each other. Urging each other to go on even when things look bleak. And it’s with that comfort that they finally let themselves go to sleep for the night.

[ronanlynchusurper]

ok but if (not when bc that king can never die) ronan dies, does he become sweetmetal energy again? does he go back to whatever place he was dreaming of when he was younger with all the other creatures who helped with the fire? (or does he go to heaven and suffer with a stupid usurper Adam replaced him with as a widower lmao) also am I correct in interpreting that there was a dream creature reminiscent of Adam in that dream before he even met him? (perhaps that topic needs a whole separate post lmao)

[dyanasaur]
