"heartstopper is unrealistic they're all too nice to each other" have you ever heard of having friends

[batbabydamian]

Hey, I started reading Robin son of Batman because of your recommendation (I literally have a print of your post on my phone to not forget lol). Honestly? One of the best things I ever read!!!

Thank you for opening my eyes! Damian has been one of my favorite characters for over a year, but I didn't read/watch much of him because of school, life (and probably an executive dysfunction in the mix).

Maya is incredible. I loved her.

I haven't finished all the issues yet, but do you have any other recommendations?

WAH this makes me so happy, i'm glad you still gave it a shot even with how busy life is!! ;v;

i’d love to give reccs, and i’ll try to go a beginner friendly route! tbh you can pick up whatever here, but since you've read R:SOB i’d immediately follow up with Batman and Robin (2011) #1-8! this first arc is what’s referred to in Maya’s introduction, and it's just. so good.

Batman Incorporated (2012) #1-10

events leading to Damian's death - affects Batman and Robin (2011) from issue #18

kind of a tough read especially with how Talia's written, but a lot of iconic bits like Batcow, Damian's vegetarian declaration, Alfred the cat, "We Were the Best, Richard."

roleplay

bartender suna x reader

You’re the one who comes in every Friday.

Approximately at the same time. Eight at night, when the club comes to life and the bar is at its busiest moment. You order the same thing—a lemon water—and you look around the room before leaving an hour after your arrival.

It always feels as if you’re on the quest for someone, your eyes darting around in a manner that is almost suspicious. It would be suspicious for most, he presumes, but Suna can’t find it in himself to care. Not when he has a dozen drunk customers to serve.

He doesn’t care, until the day you sit directly in front of him and ask for his number.

“Hello,” you say, and Suna notices the color of your eyes.

“Hi. Would you like your usual?”

“No,” your response comes quick, “I’d like to talk to you.”

“That’s not exactly in my pay grade.”

“You’ll make it work.”

He doesn’t care enough to argue, so he moves closer to you. It’s here where he notices the small wrinkles on your face—years of laughter and smiles have graced your face with such beautiful marks. He notices the scars on your hands, the birthmarks on your skin, and how your lips lean slightly to the left when you smile. (He’s never cared this much about someone else’s appearance. Maybe it’s just you. Maybe there’s a first time for everything.)

“Do you have a girlfriend?”

Straight to the point. There’s no hesitation in your voice, only pure confidence and elegance to your speech.

“No.”

“Would you like a girlfriend?”

“I don’t care much about love.”

That makes you stop. He notices a slight twitch to your eye, and how your fingers tap against the table in deep contemplation.

“Maybe you haven’t been loved right.”

“Maybe. Or maybe you’re asking too many questions about a bartender you hardly know.”

“I could change that.”

He smiles. Typically, your persuasive attitude would annoy him. But there’s something about you, something so strong and captivating. He is simply a man at sea falling into the tune and tricks of a siren.

“You could. Or you could let me do my job.”

He’s playing hard to get. He knows it and you know it. He’s never been one to beat around the bush, but Suna Rintarou has never been desired and he wants to enjoy the chase.

You smile. He smirks. He has fallen for your tricks.

“You could do your job, or you could tell me what time your shift ends.”

“10 PM.”

Another smile. You’ve got him.

“I’ll wait for you.”

-

True to your word, you wait.

His eyes follow you whenever you move, a moth to a flame. He watches as your hands run over your face, when your fingers trace the worn-out scratches on the table, and when your eyes wander around the room.

He watches the clock till it’s time for him to leave, and you’re still seated pretty where he left you.

“Hello, stranger.”

“Hello, Rintarou.”

He smiles. He almost feels like jumping over the counter, but decency, dignity, and decorum stop him from acting like a fool in your presence.

“Did you wait for long?“ he asks, finally by your side.

“Only as long as I needed to.”

You place your hands on his cheeks. He warms at your touch, heart fluttering in ways he’s never felt before.

“You’re too cold.”

“It’s winter.”

You frown at his response, an action that leads him to dote on you further. He places his hands on your cheeks, squeezing the soft fat in his delicate hands.

“You know,” he starts, “you have got to stop acting like you don’t know me whenever you come over.”

You giggle, “where’s the fun in that? I like flirting with you.”

“Flirting or harassment?”

“It’s roleplay,” you’re quick to comment. “Strangers to lovers. It’s fun.”

A kiss is placed on your pouting lips.

“Sure it is, stranger.”

I see so much of the atla fandom saying that “sokka died young”…NO?? WHERE ARE YOU GUYS GETTING THIS?? HE LIVED PAST AANG, WHO DIED AT 66?? HE HELPED ZUKO AND TONRAQ FIGHT AGAINST THE RED LOTUS…WHICH WAS WHEN KORRA WAS ALIVE?? AN ACCURATE ASSUMPTION OF WHAT AGE HE DIED IS LIKE…EARLY 70S?? THATS NOT YOUNG??

[weebsinstash]

I made a fan art for you ✨

I was gonna color self-insert to grey but in tags say you imagine them to be blue skin and white hair and I was like oh let’s do that :D

------

Oh my gosh it took me randomly checking my inbox to see this, I can't believe I missed this 😭 this is so cute, I love it, thank you!!🥰

yeah I like to play around with different Sinner Y/N concepts all the time and I love the colors and accessories you picked here, very aesthetic, VERY feeding into my love of "Valentino becomes obsessed with a Reader who isn't conventionally his type". You think he's bullying you because he's an asshole but really he's just embarrassed he's SO Down Bad For You and he's like, worried he'll be judged for it or some weak or something, and he's just, tsundere and bad at flirting. Valentino chasing butch girl Y/N. Valentino chasing punk and goth and rebel Y/N. Valentino chasing Y/N regardless because he's just s big mean slut 🥰

[screwpinecaprice]

I really don't have time to be bummed out right now so I made them a little sad instead.

[turrondeluxe]

I've got an idea as to who to give BvsTMNT! Mikey!!

Ok so, in the little spider family there's: Peter, Miles, Ben and Kaine.

(616) Peter has IDW Mikey

Miles has Rise Mikey

And Ben has 07! Mikey.

Kaine is the only one without. So, why not give him the last remaining Mikey? (Looking through his wiki, his unique feature is a tattoo on his left arm, which I think is cool)

Also, while searching for this, I found out that Ben Reily is also in the 2012 show, so there's that.

OK OK OK I LIKE THE IDEA. BUT ALSO

CONSIDER PAVITR PRABHAKAR

IVE ONLY KNOWN PAVITR'S PERSONALITY FOR 5 MINUTES BUT I LOVE HIM ALREADY

[uncanny-tranny]

You know, something that's been healing in ways I never really anticipated was buying secondhand books.

I have a physiology textbook that has the name Ernest written in beautiful cursive on the inside cover. Throughout the book, passages are highlighted, and I wonder: What is the difference between a passage underlined in red pen and one highlighted in yellow? Did he have a system, or did he use whatever was around him at the time? What kind of courses did he take? I wonder what he did after his degree... what if he became a renowned physiologist? Or, what if he abandoned everything to run away to chase dreams he knew were unwise?

It's something small you don't really think about, but there really is something holy about not being the first. This book isn't just the sum of knowledge anymore, it's become a love letter, with a completely separate story attached. That's something I will keep with me forever. We have always been here. We will pass down a tiny bit of ourselves no matter how long it has been. We will yet live.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN WE HAVE “NECROWORLD” AS A PART OF EXPLORATION AREA IN WAVEN??

[spacedlexi]

people dont talk enough about how heartbreaking the marlon betrayal mustve been for clem too,,

this dude saves the life of her and her kid. takes them in has them patched up gives them their first hot meal in who knows how long. gives them a safe place to stay. possibly permanently. confides in her that hes trying to be a good leader but feels like and fears that hes failing. asks her to help him take care of the rest of the group. helps her get over her fear of dogs by asking her to trust him. and things go well. she feels safe. like this place could really finally be the home shes been looking for

but as soon as she finds out what happened to the twins. that marlon planned on giving up her and aj too. she immediately becomes a liability to him and he attempts to kill her for it. locks her in the basement to die by walker. then tries to turn the group against her so he can shoot her instead when the first method fails. and he nearly succeeds

then a majority of the group turn against clem the minute aj kills marlon. ignoring marlons mistakes but condemning aj for his. like clem wasnt betrayed by marlon in the exact same way he betrayed the twins. like she literally wasnt almost killed twice? and how long had he been considering giving her up? was it always some contingency he planned? did he truly want to keep them around and things only changed when he feared the raiders had returned? she'll never know
