What ppl don’t understand about Kabru (of Utaya) is that his natural state is not bitter hater. That’s Chilchuck. Kabru is only a bitter hater around Laios bc Laios has a unique talent for pissing other autistic ppl off. Kabru’s natural state is being a weird overly talkative charismatic freak who’s way too much in everyone’s business. He’s like a cheery yoga mom on 800mg of caffeine and no sleep.

Everyone talks about how Millennials already have picked up grandparent hobbies. We knit, garden, whittle, and bake bread. I think this is because we’ve already been through so much in such a short time. We’re exhausted. All we want to do is wrap ourselves in a sweater, sit in the garden, and watch our plants grow.

Jazz always wanted a little brother.

Her best friend's mommy having a baby brother in her tummy, but right now they were at gotham, mom was meeting with some important people while she stay safe in the car with dad sleeping in the front passenger seat.

When she asked her mom and dad for a baby brother earlier that same week, mom had to explained that her tummy was broken after she had her because she was a very special miracle baby because they tried so hard to have her.

Jazz understood but at the same time, she wanted- no she need a baby brother, maybe one with dad's hair and mom's eyes, or maybe one with hair like hair and dad's eyes.

And she was determined, as she snuck out of the fentomobile car, sneaking inside beside the scary ninjas guards that were temporarily distracted.

She was very good at sneaking around thanks to mom training her to stay quiet and hide better then a ghost.

There was pools of ectoplasmic but much dirtier and less cleaner then the stuff mom and dad work with. Container and chambers full of them.

She saw doctor walking out of one room and snuck in before the the door close on her. There was another ectoplasmic container that had babies in them..

One sleeping upside down and the other upside up. The one of the bottom was sleeping but the older has his eyes open, revealing pretty blue eyes like dad's eyes.

She chewed on her bottom lip a bit and weigh her short limited choices as nodding.

She close her eyes, focusing as she quickly started to float a bit wobbly, sticking her small hands onto the glass ectoplasmic ball using her secret powers that she had learned without mom and dad noticing.

Her invisible hand grabbed the baby slowly, making it invisible as she pulled it out of the ectoplasmic ball.

The baby was very small and light then a feather while covered in wet ectoplasm goop.. the baby cough a bit, dripping ectoplasm out his mouth, squirming a bit as he was about to make a fuzz but quiet down as she held him close into her warm fuzzy jacket.

She snuck back out of the room and quickly out of the place all the way back into fentonmobile..

Covering the baby with her Einstein bear designed blanket, cleaning the baby up like she would with her baby dolls, and she open the empty toy baby bottle and open her mini almond milk jug, then pour the milk in and close it, after remembering to cut a little open hole on the tip of the hard plastic nibble part.

Scooting over to the baby, and carefully picking him up and helding him close onto her lap like she seen the mommy do on TV as she press the toy baby bottle again the baby's mouth.

It would be 1 hour later before mom came back looking excited then 2 hours later after they left gotham before a soft baby wail woke her dad from the backseat of the fenton car where jazz was.

Jazz was pink in the face as she was trying to hide the baby but she couldn't stop him from crying.

It would 20 minutes of jazz lying straight to her parents's faces on where she found the baby, and it would forever be her only best lie she ever told that convinced them to adopt the baby boy that was now named danny..

Meanwhile back at league of Assassin headquarters. The head scientist has noticed that the first unborn twin baby has been removed early then schedule, probably due to natural condition of death since the first one has a much weaker pulse compared to the second unborn baby which Talia had name Damian later.

The leading scientist check off the existence of the supposed first born who went without a name on the data base...

Unknownly to both parties, Jazz was very happy to have a little brother of her own now, even if his eyes flashes green a bit from time to time.

Ok ok hear me out: it could end in tragedy,, AND have a happy ending. The attempt(s) on Machete’s life force him to flee, he doesn’t even have the chance to find Vasco. Cue gay longing for at least a few years while Machete despairs over the loss of his love, his life, his status. He and Vasco only reunite (again) in their later years. Their relationship is forever flavored with loss and loneliness, but that only means they savor every moment that much more

I also I would like to see them as old men. Vasco would be so droopy :)

You gave me such old dog brainworms.

also I've spent the last couple weeks reading some older historical romance novels, and my made up, wholly unverified hypothesis that in the 2000s romance authors finally grasped that the old-fashioned "no, don't! stop, you brute" etc. scenes were not really landing with audiences anymore. So they faced a conundrum about the future of the genre. Ultimately, I think they chose to quietly stop writing those heroes, and switch them out for a more sensitive model. Still dark and brooding! But with limits, often a Heart of Gold, and more general emotional intelligence.

Still, somewhere out there is a parallel universe where these authors decided to take the opposite approach---to write heroines as unhinged, cruel, impulsive, and emotionally ignorant as their heroes. I don't know if I want to live there, but I wouldn't mind a trip to their library sometime.

For the Oldsters around here...

I saw yet another poll/reblog for "if you're over 30"... pish. I have shoes that are over 30! (Like, I never wear them but, well, they're nice shoes!)

So this is for the oldsters that I know are on Tumblr.

All the usual blah-blah... reblog, tag, etc...

Isekai'd! Reader in the Transformers universe, but they wake up as the consciousness of an entire ship. And yes, I know in some continuities, I think some of the ships do have a consciousness.

But imagine, you just get isekai'd, thinking you'd be a normal cybertronian. Instead, you wake up feeling overwhelmed, in pain, not knowing what the fuck is going on. You panic, yelling and trying to ask someone what was going on. Someone answers you hesitantly to calm down, explaining they are your lord and master. Congrats! You just got isekai'd into being the consciousness of the Decepticon warship, The Nemesis, in the middle of the war. Or like, imagine being the consciousness of the DJD's ship. Or even the Lost Light ship. Or the Scavengers ship. Or even being the consciousness of the Ark.

I think this would be the dynamic if your ended up as the Nemesis. Literally Megatron yelling and ordering you to follow his commands, and the Reader just going along with it until they figure out if they can transform like a normal cybertronian.

The Autobots end up on board and they just hear the fucking ship ask them if they're okay/lost.

Okie-doki— I’ve seen several statements along the lines of “Tim Drake never wanted to be a vigilante and he only did that bc Batman needed Robin!”

That’s not inaccurate is also not 100% right.

Pre-Robin Tim did want to be a vigilante in the same way you want to famous. It was an unrealistic daydream and he was okay to leave it at that.

(I’m not sure if this is explicitly stated but this is definitely a reasonable interpretation.)

Once Jason died Tim did shift the responsibility onto himself (his motivation can vary depending on the comic but a good portion of the time it was for Batman’s sake.)

Now while Tim’s moral compass is incredibly hard to pinpoint we do know that now that Tim has taken this responsibility there is no going back for him. Now he has the power to protect so he has to protect. In his eyes it would be immoral not to use this power.

(keep in mind Tim has the tendency to be hypocritical and his characterization changes a shit ton over the years so this will not apply to every comic— I’m speaking more of in a general sense. )

there are some nuances between ‘want’ and ‘feel-the-responsibility-to’ but I don’t really wanna get that deep into the topic— just know that if Tim didn’t ‘want’ to be a vigilante he’d quit once Bruce came back.
