The parallels to Fionna and Cake and Adventure time are insane.
Like.
In the Lich world, Fionna sees the tapes of Ice King being insane, and hears Simon's love story, causing her to dislike the idea of Simon wearing the crown...
In the Regular Adventure Time Universe TM, Finn sees the tapes of his backstory in Holly Jolly secrets, causing him to be more sympathetic to Ice King.
They both saw a side of Iceking/Simon they weren't aware of, and that made them see them as not just Ice King, but as Simon. Not as some weird, pathetic loser, but As a friend.
God I'm so normal.

I'm so firmly team Cass is Bruce's favourite but also equally as firmly on team This Is Not Exactly A Good Thing. He loves going on missions with her. His standards for her are insanely high. He'll buy her whatever she asks for. He enables all her worst impulses. He's protective. He's smothering. Cass asks him for a plane because she wants to fight a shadowy government on the other side of the world, he'll give it to her. If she doesn't check in for six months he'll just assume everything is fine. He cares so much. He needs so much therapy. He sees himself in her. He struggles to let her be herself outside the Bat.
You ask a regular batfam member and they'll tell you how they move in perfect sync, how he smiles proudly at her whenever she takes bad guys down, how he trusts her judgement and skills. It's enough to make anyone a little bit jealous, how easily she seems to gain his approval.
You ask Barbara Gordon and she puts her head in her hands and let's out a deep, long sigh.

hello is it finally time to discuss aroace etho. has my time finally fucking come.
this man would not know flirting if it hit him with a car battery. someone could walk up to him, say "oh my god you're so hot and sexy and smart can i suck your dick" and he'd just do that silly little giggle he does and go "thanks!" and then skip away to dig a 50x50 block hole in the ground for his latest storage system idea. how did bdubs get thru to him? newsflash: he didnt, and he doesnt.
he incidentally "flirts back" at ppl sometimes but he just thinks its a bit. everything is a bit to him. it's fitting that he loves horses so much bcuz this man is Married To The Bit. joel's obsession gem's playful violence cleo's everything Its All A Bit. the only person who genuinely couldn't care less if etho reciprocates their feelings is cleo because she's technically like his coworker in clethubs. meanwhile if joel doesnt get mail back from etho in 2 seconds he'll explode, but he's definitely not the one who's obsessed no no its etho. meanwhile etho just thinks it's funny.
to all outside observers it is extremely funny watching people fumble over themselves to try and win etho's affection and etho just being a brick wall. iskall in s8, grian just continuously, and now the latest people being joel and gem. the only reason bdubs somehow weasled himself into being the only person etho is mildly okay with being romantic with is because he brute-forced it over Years And Years and most people just arent that patient.

walk with me...
(i turned this into an au: masterlist)
this is a very spur of the moment not well thought out au but... JUST LISTEN. (more under the cut & in my pinned)
Lawrence Stroll bought a team on the f1 grid in 2006
Renamed it Racing Point to secure a spot for his 18 year old son (and put him in pink bc hes so cute in pink)
Lance Stroll was born October 29, 1987, he started karting in 1991
Fernando Alonso was born July 29, 1981, started karting in 1984
When Lance made his debut in f1 there was a lot of talk around the paddock about the nepo baby and Strolls choice to have both drivers on the team be rookies. (Stroll and Rosberg)
During the first race of the season Lance got p6 and Nico got p7, both scoring points for the team
After the race Fernando Alonso went to congradulate the rookies, both stunned because the race winner was praising their work
Nico was honored to be congradulated by a world champion
Lance was... well. Maybe he liked the older mans praise more than he should've.
As the season progressed Fernando continued to find reasons to speak to the rookies, even though it was evident he cared more about what the brunette had to say.
After both Racing Point drivers DNF in the 2nd and 3rd races of the season Fernando made sure to try and lessen the pain.
Each time Fernando came to the Racing Point garage, each time he searched the paddock to find #18, each time he spoke it only made the 18 year olds heart grow fonder.
Lance thought the driver was like this to every rookie, so caring and comforting, but that just wasn't the case.
He was known for not going out of his way to do anything like he was doing with the Racing Point drivers.
After Lance got 6th in the 4th race of the season Fernando was the first to congratulate him, as if he hadn't just gotten second.
He noticed at the next race that he didn't go out of his way to congradulate Nico on his 7th place, he just went straight to him to comfort him about yet another DNF.
Before then he hadn't thought too much about Fernandos intentions or why exactly he was talking to him so much.
By this time in the season fans had started to notice how close the two had gotten, seeing how they naturally gravitated towards eachother.
When Fernando won the next race Lance made sure to beat him to it and congratulate the world champion first, loving how it brought a smile to his face.
Fernando didn't smile like that when others congratulated him, didn't smile like that when being asked about his wins, didn't smile like that when Nico said the exact same thing.
Lance felt insane for thinking this way but he couldn't help but feel a little special.
A few races later in America was the first time Fernando wasn't on the podium, the first time they spent the whole time after the race together.
It was nice, being in his presence, he felt like a sunbather in the sun anytime the older man spoke to him, it was silly but it was always his favourite part of the race week.
The next time he wasn't on podium was in Germany, he almost felt bad for feeling this way but he looked forward to the days when Fernando got p4 or lower because it meant they'd spend the whole afternoon together.
It was just like in America, the two of them just standing around going over the week and the last few races until Fernando asked him a question.
"Have you ever kissed someone?"
Lance laughed at the question, unsure where it came from
"Have I kissed anyone?" He asked back, wondering if it was a serious question
"Si, you do know what kissing is, no?"
Lance couldn't help but laugh again, he was 18 not 8, of course he knew what kissing was.
"Have you ever kissed anyone?" Lance asked, knowing for a fact he had, it'd be insane if not, how could someone so stunning not have kissed someone? How could someone with girls around him constantly have not kissed someone and more.
"I asked first, Lancito."
Fernando had called him that almost constantly since the season started yet every time it never failed to make the youngers heart flutter.
"No" He admitted, almost embarrassed "I'm not very good with people" he added, knowing the only people on the grid he could talk to easily were Fernando and Nico
"I could be your first"
(if this doesn't make sense pretend u never saw it)
