hey you, yes you. do you wanna rp with a chicano cinnamon roll with a snarkastic weapon of mass destruction fused to his spine? then look no further than SCARABFUSED, the new blue beetle iii blog on the block. we’ve got a wide variety of universes for you to choose from. want something lighthearted and punny? try out the batman: the brave and the bold verse. a fan of justice league vs teen titans and judas contract? we’ve got that too! and new to the dc cartoon scene: justice league action! if you’re looking for something a bit darker, may I suggest the earth-3 verse with scarlet scarab? sadly, we’re out of stock for yj, injustice 2, and comics verses, but on the plus side there’s a ton of crossover and au stuff!

all you gotta do to get in on this is leave a LIKE or REBLOG this post and I’ll check out your blog and most likely follow back

What's the most random thing you've ever had to deal with?

You likely mean strange instead of true randomness, as the internet is likely to mix up.

In short: Bat-mite.

<--- this blog wouldn’t mind some curious anons

Ask about anything!

[extraterrestrialinsect-blog]

G and L please?

ACCESSING FILE: letter.txt

g – ghosts, are they real

Does this answer your question?

l – last time you cried

I cannot physically cry, so never. As for feeling an emotion that, if I had the capacity to cry, would have elicited tears? I don’t want to admit this... but my host and I watched the movie Wall-E the other day and... well, I don’t want to spoil anything.

[extraterrestrialinsect-blog]

B, i, q, r, w

ACCESSING FILE: letter.txt

b – biggest fear

That my host will perish because of a mistake I make.

i – in love with

...My host.

ERROR     Q, R, and W have already been answered!

[extraterrestrialinsect-blog]

Q, R, T, W.

ACCESSING FILE: letter.txt

q – question you’re always asked

I suppose it is “Do you love your host?”.

r – reason to smile

You should smile because the darkest days will not be forever. Good always prevails. Either way, you shouldn’t need a reason. You should be able to smile without one.

t – time you woke up

Precisely at 9:00:00 ante meridiem, Eastern Standard Time. After doing my morning diagnostics, I realized that this was a holiday, and other than perhaps Calendar King attacking, we were free for the day. I then went back to sleep and don’t remember when I got up again.

w – worst habit

Fearing that the worst will happen.

[extraterrestrialinsect-blog]

I think you're a good person.

…Thank you.

What are your thoughts on school?

It’s… interesting. I despise the stress it gives my host and do not understand why learning needs to be a chore but it teaches semi-valuable information.

I would prefer it without the stress, among other issues, however.

Khaji Da, what do you think of the movie Lilo and Stitch? Do you draw any parallels between the movie and yourself?

It’s spelled Kaji Dha.

I quite like it. It’s quaint. As for parallels… none too striking that I can think of. I and Stitch are blue, our companions adore us, and… aliens are a prominent theme. I’m not wildly destructive if that’s what you’re implying, and there’s no way in any reality my host would allow us to get ahold of a chainsaw without permission.

When My Friends Speak Bad About Themselves 🚫

[extraterrestrialinsect-blog]

mutuals do this

take care of yourself

Now that I’m an adult and Know Things about stuff like world religions and allegories and the personal life of C. S. Lewis, I know that that scene in The Last Battle with the dwarves in the stables who ‘refuse to be taken in’ and so fail to see and experience the beautiful things that Jill does is meant to be about atheists. But (perhaps because I was a particularly obtuse child who grew up in a secular household) the way I first experienced it was as a lesson about wonder, or perhaps about hope.

There’s this conventional wisdom that ignorance hopes, intelligence despairs. It’s the heart of grimdark - every time a character acts based on hope, they die, or are forced to endure worse than death. Every time a character acts based on cynicism or cruelty, they succeed. Eventually everyone - including the audience - learns that there’s no place for feeble, foolish things like kindness, like optimism. And eventually everyone - especially the audience - gets tired, gets bored, gets pissed off, and gives up. Which is wise, because effort means hope of some reward for said effort. And hope is for people who don’t - or refuse to - understand how things really work. ‘Intelligent girls are more depressed because they know what the world is really like’. 

And I mean. It’s not as though no one has ever taken advantage of the hope and faith of others. It’s not as though sitting around going ‘I’m sure everything will work out in the end’ is a great strategy for dealing with nasty shit. But that’s not what this is about. This is about the idea that taking meaningful action is pointless and useless and people shouldn’t be doing it, because don’t they know how the world works? The world always crushes people who hope and who act, so better to do nothing and despair.

Look. We’re on a collision course with the sun. Within a few hundred years not one of us will be remembered, and our children and our children’s children will be dealing with the exact same shit we’re dealing with right now. It’ll wear a different face, it’ll make slightly different promises, but its underbelly will be the same colour. I’m not gonna attempt to argue the nobility or inherent worth of choosing either hope or despair in the face of this knowledge. Pretty sure Shakespeare already went there, and did it a whole awful lot more poetic justice than I would. I’m just gonna say that even Hamlet, depressive and highly educated doucheface that he was, didn’t have an answer. You definitely don’t. And you don’t get to make that decision for other people.

Having hope and clear eyes is not an easy thing, it is not cowardly, it is not for the faint of heart. It is the hardest thing in the world and if you, in your despair, try to step on it to make yourself feel better, you are only depriving yourself.
