#[ this is a serious convo. ]

yet how wonderful the lie!

also i could write a lot about why tim and damian — two people dick grayson has always had a very clear adult-child relationship with — would struggle to connect with him as a traumatised teenager who doesn’t owe them anything and already assumes the worst. like…. obviously everything is up for interpretation but their intentions weren’t selfish. they simply weren’t prepared to talk to someone who had experienced that kind of profound hurt and wasn’t going to be accomodating to what they said. im in my 20s and how i talk to kids is very different to how i talk to my peers. u have some responsibility of accomodation when ur talking to someone younger than u — esp if they’re struggling to communicate their points. u do the heavy lifting in the convo. dick grayson as a seventeen year old — a seventeen year old who’s in mourning, and has been hurt by someone he trusts, mind — is not going to be doing that labour. he isn’t going to be giving them a chance, because why would he? it’s not a coincidence that the person who was able to regulate dick and stabilise him was the guy who’s raising a kid. so yeah i think it was kinda inevitable that they’d fuck up a bit and say something kinda shitty. idk

say it with me everyone: Heart is not A Baby, Mind is not a Jackass, and Soul is not Crazy. (or alternatively Cool/Laid back 24/7)

They have layers like onions or however the quote goes idk

ok among my favorite parts of qsmp is the fact that charlie slimecicle can only hold the act of being mad at mariana when mariana isn't in the room. like he successfully rp'd being mad at his deadbeat puta esposa for months while mariana wasn't logging on, like he complained about mariana at the wedding, during the election, in subsequent appearances, and then he's messaging mariana in the chat during purgatory and he's still holding it

and then they're both at spawn like as close to face to face as they get. and bro CANNOT hold the act it drops so fast lmfao he was like "yea cellbit i'm gonna kill mariana" and instead they have a genuinely heartfelt conversation and then rp sexo in the fountain

and i know i'm brainrotting purgatory rn but i'm actually thinking about this bc i saw a clip of mariana and slime talking during the awards show and literally. slime's face goes from 😡🤬 MARIANA'S HERE, SAY SOMETHING PUTA ESPOSA to 😄😁 the second mariana shows up on the screen

like he's still pretending to be mad but dude is grinning like absolute crazy and i love that

you know what Buck had in that little toiletry bag? his toothbrush and his deodorant and an abudance of hair products. he was staying at Tommy's place, not going out for a wild night with the girls at the club. do you really think Tommy doesn't stack lube and condoms at his own home? 😭

Grabbed this one and shared it in discord, but I will share it here too because in terms of voice acting and animations, I feel like this scene is not talked about enough! I love him so much, your honor. 🥺🖤

[sunforgrace]

all im saying is i deserved to see dean get real weird with it after that last one. two seasons after the widower arc he tells you he loves you and then dies. surely there will be no rammies from this

some fucking post by some fucking guy: everyone always talks about how aang and zuko are narrative foils, but actually the parallels between SOKKA

me: YES???? 🤩🤩🤩🤩

some fucking guy, cont: …and ZUKO….

me: oh. 😓😓

I find it SO funny the way it feels like being an everlark fan is the same as being anti Gale.

As if Everlark happening isn't the BEST for Gale. As if Gale avoiding being with someone who very clearly isn't in love with him isn't the greatest thing for him. As if him being able to have a position where he is perfectly placed to help others (the thing he's wanted since chapter one, book one) isn't an amazing conclusion for him.

I, as both an everlark and Gale Stan, can confidently say there is NOTHING anti Gale about the ending we got.

I don’t think it makes sense to assume that Jason was mocking Mia’s past. At all. The thing that got jason painted as violent back in the 80s was his anger against rapists…how does that turn into mocking a victim? and that entire story was written by winick. Do we honestly think winick intended to communicate that? The same writer who made Jason’s first kill a man who was trafficking children? Who had Jason pause in his mission of madness to make sure those kids were found by the right people so they wouldn’t be in further danger?

Jenson (to Matt Deane): What are you doing here ^_^////? Matt: Dunno! Ross told me to get up there or, down there.

Zo, tracing Joke's collar: thank you for coming into my life.

Zo, tracing Joke's bare chest: thank you for trying to win me over.

Zo, looking at Joke's eyes, then his lips: no, actually. I should thank you for being my boyfriend.

One thing i wish more people would consider when watching shows/reading comics is "if the narrative doesn't treat this seriously, then maybe neither should I"... Obviously there's some nuance to it, but people forget about slapstick and asides to the audience and if I have to see one more person in the year of 2024 claim that "Winry is abusive" for lighthearted wrench visual gags I'm going to lose my mind.
