there are many, many funny things about kingdom hearts, but for me the funniest part is in any scene where there’s supposed to be a big crowd but the devs didn’t want to model literally anyone so it’s just a huge empty room with only the absolutely necessary characters there

Me: why do I feel bad :( why can't I do anything :( I haven't been able to write in over two months :( why am I sad :(

Also me: you have the condition of not enough dopamine in the brain, if you recall

Me: ah fuck I forgot about that for a moment

Jason knows (or at least he thinks he knows) and just kinda enjoys the attention at first, with the mentality of "well, this is better than nothing", but I think he at some point realises that oh, this is actually genuine. Because it truly stopped being a dick measuring contest really fast on both Oliver and Bruce's side, they now both think that the other is doing it just to spite the other, even though they both genuinely care about Jason. Bruce on the other side of the meeting table is like "how dare you play at his feelings" and Oliver on the other side is like "oh NOW you want to be a better parent, come at me"

I think that instead of being super apprehensive about Jason and him dating Roy, Oliver should take one look at him and then one look at Bruce and go oh, I'm about to be so annoying.

Oliver starts being so nice to Jason. So nice. Inviting him to family dinners. Giving him both his hero communications and personal phone number and telling him to call whenever he needs something. He gives him new tech and keeps updating his weapons and armor. He helps with missions and clean up and says nothing if Jason is a little rough, apart from patting him on the back and saying good job. He starts keeping his picture inside his wallet and has other pictures of Jason, Roy and Lian framed in the house and tells everyone about him. He starts calling him son-in-law first and then just son and then calls him a Harper and eventually a Queen.

At first it was just to annoy Bruce, but after the first time he tells Jason that he did a good job and Jason starts to tear up a little, Oliver goes oh no, oh I'm actually doing this now. This my boy now. I don't care if he and Roy break up or something, this is my boy now.

Bruce still thinks he's just doing it for the sole purpose of pissing him off, though, and he is so fucking mad. The Justice League meetings have turned into a Cold War zone.

Bruce starts to being so nice to Jason as well, forcing himself to ignore some of the more outrageous things Jason does, and Jason is so, so fucking confused.

To me, the worst tragedy of Star Wars is that the Jedi would have won if they weren't betrayed. They discovered who was the Sith. Mace defeated him! The Jedi would have won the war that was set up to destroy them and they lost, not because of some incompetence or weakness or whatever, but because they were betrayed by one of their own.

in legacy of the force: sacrifice, we see that removing one's boots before entering the house is a non-negotiable rule in the beviin-vasur household, including for fett.

this means that the majority of the scenes taking place in the farmhouse—including the most dramatic—must involve most of the mando characters (fett included) walking around in full armor and socks

In my head Bruce had taken it out to stare at it in the middle of the meeting because he is going absolutely soft, but this. Genius.

Bruce, for the record, is absolutely stoked when Jason brings Roy around.

Because this now means that he is a grandpa. He is so ready to be a grandpa. Let him be a grandpa. Please please please please-

(finally, he gets to just give things to someone. anything they want. (finally, he gets to give Jason so much money and things and Jason can't say no because they are for Lian too))

The thing is, now he is in a very deep and serious rivalry with Oliver, who will not be replaced as the number one grandpa. Absolutely not. So now they are waging war on each other for Lian's affections.

It's messy and it's bloody.

One day, during a JLA meeting, Green Arrow notices something peeking from underneath Batman's suit. It's colorful, so it stands starkly against the dark suit. It looks very familiar.

Green Arrow looks down on his hands. At the friendship bracelet Lian had made for him. He looks back up at Batman and the very familiar colorful thing he has on him.

"What is that?" He asks.

Batman turns to look at him. He follows Green Arrow's gaze, and looks at the colorful thing on him, and then at the bracelet on Green Arrow's wrist.

"What is that?" Batman asks, nodding at the bracelet.

"I asked you first."

"I asked you second."

Green Arrow glares at Batman.

"It's a friendship bracelet my granddaughter made for me", he says.

Batman glares at Green Arrow.

"And this is a friendship bracelet my granddaughter made for me", he says.

They glare at each other. The meeting room has become several degrees colder. No one dares to utter a word.

Then they both pull out their phones and make a call.

"Jason-"

"Roy-"

Jason and Roy, in their bed, both realising that their dad's are calling them at the same time: fuck whatever it is, we're going back to sleep

A few years ago I was at a fair, working for my mom. I was standing in our stall that was maybe 3x3 meters. A man walks up to me, doesn't say anything, just looks at our products that are all very visible, since it's such a small stall. He looks around for a moment, and then looks at me.

"Do you sell slippers?"

I blink, and I resist looking at the giant sign just above my head that reads our company name and the tagline of "Finnish leather gloves".

"...like leather slippers? We can make those for babies."

"No no, I meant like felt slippers."

I resist looking around at my small booth that is packed full of only leather gloves.

"No, sorry", I say, and he says ah damn and continues on.

Maybe five minutes later, a woman comes up to my stall. She doesn't say anything to me, just looks around at the products that are all very visible, and then after a moment look up to me.

"Do you sell mittens?"

I resist looking at the sign above my head that says "Finnish leather gloves" for the second time that day.

"Like knitted mittens?"

"Yes."

"No, sorry", I say, and she kinda nods, looking a bit disappointed, and I resist looking at the leather gloves around me once again.

She leaves, and maybe ten minutes go by. Another man comes up to me. He doesn't say anything to me at first, just looks at the gloves and at the giant sign above my head that says "Finnish leather gloves". The same leather gloves I am fully surrounded by in my small stall.

Then he looks at me.

"Do you sell umbrellas?" He asks.

I fully bite my tongue at this point in order to not to say "do I look like I sell umbrellas"

"No, sorry", I say, and he huffs and walks away, looking like I crushed all his dreams.

And this is what I think about every single time I see the phrase "how dare you say we piss on the poor."

Damian tells everyone that his nephew is the future best shooter in the world. He is sure of this and you will not dissuade him.

Dick kind of tried to explain to him that this might not be the case because Junie is too small, Damian just said: "His father is Todd, Harper's other father. This child is a future sniper."

A couple of days later, Cass is holding her nephew in his arms and Junie, who was playing with a dart, hit this very dart exactly on target the first time.

Damian is correct, how dare you even try to tell him that he is not correct. He is the most correct person to ever exist. How dare.

It's one of those darts with a velcro tip and that makes it even more impressive that Junie managed to get enough power to the throw to actually make it stick to the board. Like that kid is clearly going to places

Me, watching my wife play Arkham Origins: I just love that we just say the Finnish versions for some of the names. Timi and Jimi. Easier to say. Dick's name doesn't translate, though-

My wife, without missing a beat: Jorma

[varpusvaras]

We have now played through Arkham: City (finished the Harley DLC) and started Origins, and this is a quick recap of that

"Tim! Tim! Tim!"

"Fucking go off Tim"

"Nooo I don't want to play as Bruce don't make meeeeeeeee!"

"Tim I love you even if you are bald!"

".....can we now skip to the part where we play as Tim again?"

"Hey! Bruce! Be nice to Tim!"

-

"Here's the problem, in the last games, Bruce was getting old...in this one, he's young, but a fucking noob"

"Hey! Bruce! That's LADY Shiva to you! Put some respect on my queen's name!"

"Steve Blum?"

"........'I'm going to kill you.....and then kill you again-'"

"Who is this guy?" "He's an asshole" "okay"

"Wait- Is this the pedophile?!"

"*ensuing finnish raging that does not translate to english ft. Deathstroke boss*"

"The build up rage and the need to kill, inside me, right now, it's really high, BIG"

just a normal day at the normal office where everything is normal always

[varpusvaras]

Barbara: Relax a little

Dick: Relax a little? Why does everyone tell me to relax a little? I'm relaxing a little all the time! I do yoga, I meditate and I am so fucking zen!

I am going to write the next part of Runaway AU tomorrow even if I have to drag myself beaten and bloody to do it

"I could be a good mother / And I wanna be your wife" But this is Jason holding the newborn Junie in his arms. Jason wants to be a good dad, Jason wants Roy to continue loving him, Jason wants his family so much and It's happening and it's too good to be true.

"But was still caught so off guard/Sunny sky/Stiff smile/While the beats rise in my heart" But it's Roy who smiles like a jerk when he sees Junie for the first time, Junie their son whom Jason lovingly holds in his arms. He really didn't think he was going to have a second child, he really didn't think he could have a child with Jason. And he's so damn happy.

"I love you in the morning/And in the afternoon/I love you in the evening" but this is Lian, who, with bated breath from delight, bends over the sleeping Junie, and her small hand lovingly strokes his plump, tender cheek. She has a younger brother whom she already loves, even if she does not understand at all where he comes from.
