Prompt:

It’s not that Jason forgot, per se.

But between smuggling a toddler out of the League of Assassins, trekking halfway across the world, and finding a suitable hiding place that’s also child friendly… well, it kind of slipped his mind that he’s supposed to be… dead.

Something that comes back to bite him in the ass when he takes Dami out for some ice cream and just so happens to run into non other than Brucie-fucking-Wayne

I really really hate the self-reinforcing shame loop society tries to push on people, where because 'no one does this thing' that most people would love to do, no one does the thing that people would love to do because people will call them a freak

most people think capes are cool. No One Wants To Be The Cape Guy.

most people like some kind of music that isn't Top 40s Pop and/or Country. No One Wants To Be The Pretentious Guy Talking About Godspeed You! Black Emperor.

most allo people, on some level, fantasize about dating their favourite fictional characters. No One Wants To Be The Guy Who Married The Pony Tulpa.

there's a reason I've decided to be the freak of nature I am; someone's gotta break the shame loop. because it's bullshit, and if we got rid of it, a lot more people would be a lot happier.

Izzy doesn't even have a coming to terms with his sexuality arc in season 2 it's much closer to gender, and I've seen a similar gender expression journey to Izzy in season 2 on the middle aged straight dads of queer children. I'm gonna gear my description of what happens towards a father and son example because Izzy's hang ups are very much about toxic masculinity, but I'm a transgender man and I'm on the journey I'm about to describe with my formerly borderline terf mom, so it can apply to other genders.

Anyway: At first the dad who I'm positing is like Izzy punishes his son for putting on a skirt or holding hands with a boy, then he realizes how badly trying to suppress his kid's sexuality is hurting his kid, who he loves in spite of the way he's treating him, so he does his best to change his mind and learn about the queer community and then eventually he goes to a pride event in an I love my gay son shirt and then the son feels like he can finally bring his boyfriend over for dinner and maybe someday the dad apologizes even though its awkward or maybe they let it go unspoken. I've even had a friend who put his reformed homophobic dad in drag makeup for TikTok content.

I'm not saying that's exactly what happened to Izzy, I suppose if we mapped this onto Izzy's journey Ed would be the son but a big part of Izzy getting better was him having a bunch of gay coworkers do something nice for him in a way that had nothing to do with Ed, which doesnt usually happen with the reformed parents, or maybe it does idk I've only experienced it as the queer child or as friend of the queer child so I wouldn't know. Also they usually don't perform in drag shows. But I would also say that they aren't usually pirates on boats where every single other person is queer in some way. The places where Izzy diverges off this path have nothing to do with Izzy coming to terms with any lust for men he may or may not have and everything to do with the setting he's in.

Also to be clear I'm not saying Izzy is straight, I'm just saying the jury is still out. He could have been out the whole time or he could have come out in 2.02 when he said "I have love for you" or he could have meant that platonically and died in the closet or he could have meant that completely platonically and been straight or aro/ace, but whatever way you slice that his season 2 arc is way less about coming out and coming to terms with his own sexuality and way more about learning to accept Ed for who he is and every other queer person around him by proxy.

lance and keith refer to each other almost exclusively by their nicknames, but lance’s nicknames are almost always teasing (mullet, fearless leader, willie nelson, batboy, etc etc) bc he started w the nicknames mid-rivalry and literally can’t make himself stop. whereas keith doesn’t rly do the insulting nicknames so his nicknames aren’t teasing, he started busting out the nicknames after he and lance became friends and the pining got way worse so all his are very sweet (sharpshooter, right hand man, and later sweetheart, bluebell, etc) and lance melts every single time. like. lance’s nicknames for keith make keith smile and roll his eyes but keith’s nicknames for lance make him blush and warm him up. they are the most annoying couple in the universe

i think i wouldn’t hate disco elysium’s collage mode nearly as much if it weren’t for 1) the way that it was marketed in such a tasteless, soulless manner, let alone the fact that it was a last ditch distraction from a dead on its feet studio piloted by dumbass thieving execs and released on the day of the court declaration, and 2) those dumbass fucking stickers

like if it had been included with the base game from the start and had been titled something a bit more tasteful and in-line with how i would have liked the feature to be marketed as— something like “exploration mode”, something that perhaps could only be unlocked after completing the game for the first time, AND didn’t have those stupid as hell visually and tonally incongruent with the artstyle stickers, i would have applauded it as a nice little bonus for being able to study and appreciate the 3d models and environments for reference.

my most unpopular grouchy christmas opinion is that krampusposting is more cringe and irritating than sincere christmas love by like a factor of 50

[blorbowhereartthoublorbo]

it’s so funny that ricky was like “i’m a MINOR PRINCE.” as if zheng, the conquerer of CHINA and pirate QUEEN, would be intimidated by that??? baby didn’t do his research before he threw that little tidbit into the chat and it shows

👁w👁!!! -Just. Just stares up at him. Observing. Admiring. What an oddly weird guy. Oh yhea. Eerie and unnerving. Creepy and unsettling. Uncanny. Pretty. Yup.-

@ebbing-terror

Catches her staring. Stares back. Small. Soft. Weak. Terribly gross and human (loves it with her though). Funny. Pretty. Enabler. Cute when scared. Doesn't look scared. Admiring him? Yup. He can work with that.

"Hi, honey. What are you doing out of the sewer...?" Proceeds to obnoxiously pick her up in a fireman carry hold and heads home.
