severus snape and the ongoing theme of “insufficient masculinity” (aka homophobia/transphobia)

snape is introduced at a young age wearing a “women’s blouse”, which petunia uses to mock him

snape, when appearing to neville as a boggart, wears neville’s grandmother’s clothing when neville uses riddikilus on him

during “snape’s worst memory”, james turns snape (who he sees as a potential romantic rival) upside down and strips him/humiliates him in an attempt to impress lily, and after snape yells at lily and calls her a mudblood, lily covers up her (justifiably) hurt feelings by commenting on his dirty underwear

snape’s patronus, confirmed by jkr to be a symbol of “true love, love everlasting”, unlike james’ stag, mirrors lily’s patronus by being a doe (which much of the fandom considers to be a sign of obsession, despite never levelling the same accusations against tonks’ wolf patronus mirroring remus’)

most, if not all, of the significantly positive/grounding forces in severus’ life are women (eileen, lily, narcissa, mcgonagall) 

feel free to add more if u can think of any

Wooh back again with another duo pairing. Today we have the Venenum duo (aka the short king and queen)

Venenum= 𝘥𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘭𝘺 𝘴𝘶𝘣𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦, 𝘱𝘰𝘪𝘴𝘰𝘯.

Also how I think Shinobu and Obanai's first interaction goes; Like probably in the Butterfly estate where Obanai got injured at one point during a mission and this was when Shinobu was still new to masking her emotions and all

yo…. when jet breaks in the tea shop and accuses zuko and iroh of beinh firebenders….

do you think any of the patrons looked at zukos scarred face - obviously done by a firebender - and immediately think jet was an asshole? like

jet: hes a firebender!!!!

patrons, thinking about the backstory they concocted for zuko and iroh where their home was invaded by firebenders and they barely survived with their lifes so they could come and have a peaceful life selling tea in a city the war doesnt touch:

Guess who started a new save on my favorite game

[coldstrawberrytyrant]

maybe I'll start posting shadows house content because it's underrated !!!

[coldstrawberrytyrant]

You know what would be a good ending for shadows house.

Where all the Shadow kids (aka the morphs) and the Living dolls (aka the humans) get to be the new Mirror nobles after the revolt against the adults.

Like since its most likely the adults from the original Mirror house are either dead or consumed by morphs and unlikely to have kids of their own it would be a perfect way to restart the nobility and the Shadow noble kids can have a fresh start.

As well as Kate finally having her house name back along with a new nobility line that could help her in the future, even if she can never get the soot off herself (because well shes half morph I dont exactly think she can just get rid of it that easily, maybe a situation where now shes the only noble who can switch from human to shadow back and forth) she can be surrounded by kids who are almost like herself and all the living dolls can either stay or go back home because either way they can leave the place that hurt them and go back home or they can stay with their respective shadow and live out their lives in the house in peace and with their friends.

Plot armor but it’s Bruce Wayne’s wealth.

Bruce is one of the richest men in the world. Bruce does not want to be one of the richest men in world.

He starts by implementing high starting salaries and full health care coverages for all levels at Wayne Enterprises. This in vastly improves retention and worker productivity, and WE profits soar. He increases PTO, grants generous parental and family leave, funds diversity initiatives, boosts salaries again. WE is ranked “#1 worker-friendly corporation”, and productively and profits soar again.

Ok, so clearly investing his workers isn’t the profit-destroying doomed strategy his peers claim it is. Bruce is going to keep doing it obviously (his next initiative is to ensure all part-time and contractors get the same benefits and pay as full time employees), but he is going to have to find a different way to dump his money.

But you know what else is supposed to be prohibitively expensive? Green and ethical initiatives. Yes, Bruce can do that. He creates and fund a 10 year plan to covert all Wayne facilities to renewable energy. He overhauls all factories to employ the best environmentally friendly practices and technologies. He cuts contracts with all suppliers that engage in unethical employment practices and pays for other to upgrade their equipment and facilities to meet WE’s new environmental and safety requirements. He spares no expense.

Yeah, Wayne Enterprises is so successful that they spin off an entire new business arm focused on helping other companies convert to environmentally friendly and safe practices like they did in an efficient, cost effective, successful way.

Admittedly, investing in his own company was probably never going to be the best way to get rid of his wealth. He slashes his own salary to a pittance (god knows he has more money than he could possibly know what to do with already) and keeps investing the profits back into the workers, and WE keeps responding with nearly terrifying success.

So WE is a no-go, and Bruce now has numerous angry billionaires on his back because they’ve been claiming all these measures he’s implementing are too expensive to justify for decades and they’re finding it a little hard to keep the wool over everyone’s eyes when Idiot Softheart Bruice Wayne has money spilling out his ears. BUT Bruce can invest in Gotham. That’ll go well, right?

Gotham’s infrastructure is the OSHA anti-Christ and even what little is up to code is constantly getting destroyed by Rogue attacks. Surely THAT will be a money sink.

Except the only non-corrupt employer in Gotham city is….Wayne Enterprises. Or contractors or companies or businesses that somehow, in some way or other, feed back to WE. Paying wholesale for improvement to Gotham’s infrastructure somehow increases WE’s profits.

Bruce funds a full system overhaul of Gotham hospital (it’s not his fault the best administrative system software is WE—he looked), he sets up foundations and trusts for shelters, free clinics, schools, meal plans, day care, literally anything he can think of.

Gotham continues to be a shithole. Bruce Wayne continues to be richer than god against his Batman-ingrained will.

Oh, and Bruice Wayne is no longer viewed as solely a spoiled idiot nepo baby. The public responds by investing in WE and anything else he owns, and stop doing this, please.

Bruce sets up a foundation to pay the college tuition of every Gotham citizen who applies. It’s so successful that within 10 years, donations from previous recipients more than cover incoming need, and Bruce can’t even donate to his own charity.

But by this time, Bruce has children. If he can’t get rid of his wealth, he can at least distribute it, right?

Except Dick Grayson absolutely refuses to receive any of his money, won’t touch his trust fund, and in fact has never been so successful and creative with his hacking skills as he is in dumping the money BACK on Bruce. Jason died and won’t legally resurrect to take his trust fund. Tim has his own inherited wealth, refuses to inherit more, and in fact happily joins forces with Dick to hack accounts and return whatever money he tries to give them. Cass has no concept of monetary wealth and gives him panicked, overwhelmed eyes whenever he so much as implies offering more than $100 at once. Damian is showing worrying signs of following in his precious Richard’s footsteps, and Babs barely allows him to fund tech for the Clocktower. At least Steph lets him pay for her tuition and uses his credit card to buy unholy amounts of Batburger. But that is hardly a drop in the ocean of Bruce’s wealth. And she won’t even accept a trust fund of only one million.

Jason wins for best-worst child though because he currently runs a very lucrative crime empire. And although he pours the vast, vast majority of his profits back into Crime Alley, whenever he gets a little too rich for his tastes, he dumps the money on Bruce. At this point, Bruce almost wishes he was being used for money laundering because then he’s at least not have the money.

So children—generous, kindhearted, stubborn till the day they die the little shits, children—are also out.

Bruce was funding the Justice League. But then finances were leaked, and the public had an outcry over one man holding so much sway over the world’s superheroes (nevermind Bruce is one of those superheroes—but the public can’t know that). So Bruce had to do some fancy PR trickery, concede to a policy of not receiving a majority of funds from one individual, and significantly decrease his contributions because no one could match his donations.

At his wits end, Bruce hires a team of accounts to search through every crinkle and crevice of tax law to find what loopholes or shortcuts can be avoided in order to pay his damn taxes to the MAX.

The results are horrifying. According to the strictest definition of the law, the government owes him money.

Bruce burns the report, buries any evidence as deeply as he can, and organizes a foundation to lobby for FAR higher taxation of the upper class.

All this, and Wayne Enterprises is happily chugging along, churning profit, expanding into new markets, growing in the stock market, and trying to force the credit and proportionate compensation on their increasingly horrified CEO.

Bruce Wayne is one of the richest men in the world. Bruce Wayne will never not be one of the richest men in the world.

But by GOD is he trying.

We need an equivalent of legally blonde for every movie genre. Give us gritty police dramas with a new generations of Elle woods learning to batter drug lords with phone books. A murder mystery but the detective is an unsuspecting sorority girl who loves pink and think poroit is a kind of shampoo but turns out to be frighteningly adept at solving clues. Just an army of gorgeous women in cute little outfits proving to the world why barbie is an expert in every profession

Alright imma just drop this headcanon right here

Out of the Ori trio in specifically season 1 of the original show-

Halilintar knows how to sew.

That’s it. That’s the headcanon.

[coldstrawberrytyrant]

Ok so I’m starting to read Pjo (tlt) because I’ve gotten the book as a gift this year.

And with watching clips from the show, some what if scenarios from TikTok, reading the limited docs on ao3 about this sorta premise, as well as finishing the Medusa chapter of the book.

My head spun an idea, so the premise is Sally and Percy run all the way to Aunty Em’s emporium (how this happens idk but let’s say she took Percy and just fled) they seek shelter and Medusa is all eager to help this Sally Jackson.

After a while Sally learns her true identity but Medusa told her not to worry and that she didn’t want to harm her or her son so she lets them stay in exchange for helping out the emporium.

Cue Sally and Medusa bonding moments (ship ? Not a ship ? Who cares it’s up to you to decide their relationship).

Now this leads up to the meat of this au, what if Percy became a gorgon ? Due to some magical God or whatever bs. Like maybe Medusas curse -blessing- rubbed off on him and now suddenly his hair gets replaced by snakes.

Ofc while Sally is in shock Medusa starts preparing on how to raise a little demigod gorgon.

The story would just be of how Percy grew up with 2 mums and working at the emporium building relations with customers who stop by for a look at the statues often. Maybe some demigods if they’re unlucky enough to find the den.

I’d like to think he would like the idea of monsters because in his opinion they would make excellent statues (then again it could be ooc because I just started the book and I wanted to ramble a bit).

Maybe he gets his own little hat and veil to cover his snake hair and petrifying eyes like Medusa, give the boy some cool coloured sunglasses.

Bunch of snakes on his head giving him goodnight kisses just like his mother’s and just you know being a powerful demigod of one of the big 3 and a gorgon who likes statues and maybe flowers because they add a pop of colour.

Just that, that’s it, that’s the whole idea.

Maybe I’ll expand once I understand and read more of the books but I’ll put this ramble here first.
