#also. ugh. scarab hell

[narwhalandchill]

a.... situation has occurred

SJSOSKSKSOSKFK literally. my first time EVER just getting fucked proper and taking that early L of hubris chasing 4* constellations (kuki c2 who else) in this game.

he came in at only 16 pity too 😭😭 yea i had this one coming

im not too mad hdksisk it was early after all and like. i did end up going for baizhu on my alt too when my (successful, unlike the XQ incident 💀) pulls for a c2 beidou took me to 70 pity after furina so i just went fuck it and won the 50-50. and now its happened for the fifth time and on an early too 😭 rigged alt.

anyway point being unlike his early 3.x era i expect cyno to be way less cringe to build and play with both furina and baizhu available for him (im fairly sure ive heard somewhere that furina quickbloom might just straight up be his best team now? but no clue need to look it up) so i can definitely live with this. and ive always loved how much of a banger job alejandro saab did w his chara too!!! But truly a jumpscare of all times

Go, Ted! Handpicked to help defend the multiverse. Also chosen to represent the Earth 4 heroes in this crossover event

Again, Ted is strong as hell. Holding up a whole grown man's full weight with one arm

Isn't that the fucker that was fighting dr fate in the Rebirth Blue Beetle run? also 45,000 years b4 the present… a bit overestimating how long humans have been around

superhero mentality I swear. Just cause you got attacked after being invited/forced to go somewhere doesn't mean it was a trap/set up on the part of the inviter

also, the only things that actually hurt the shadow demons have been shown to be the Scarab, the Green Lantern's light, and the lights in the Monitor's ship turned up to full brightness

ok yeah, that Atlantean is the same character but… he's an antagonist in the rebirth Blue Beetle story for… reasons. And looking at his wiki he was not a fucking villain until post-crisis stuff

also fucking superheroes assuming the Monitor lied to them b/c things are going to shit and not dude had a plan but it isn't working like he thought it would

mfers really be jumping to conclusions and wanting to fight someone about it

local asshole villain Dr Polaris really said 'fuck yeah! let's kill some Nazis!'

while Ted would also like to kill some Nazis, he's focused on the mission they got sent there for. Also, the Ted being a mama's boy thing has come up twice this far in this crossover. That is entirely fucking new, Ted never mentioned his mom in his og comics

so man got brought over to the DC universe and they made him more flirty and a momma's boy

of course, I do have to question why in this fight the shadow demons get zapped from just touching Beetle while in the first encounter that didn't happen

of course, it hurts like hell just to get touched by the shadow demons

the Monitor is disappointed that the Beetle doesn't work as effectively against the demons as he thought the Scarab would so he sends the fucker home, really?

Also, I guess Jaime would be plowing through these demons like tissue paper then if he were in this

also, Ted having the Scarab in the first place is another retcon but it's a very minor change, he's still a tech hero since it doesn't actively give him powers

but the passive protection from demons is fascinating

cause like from Khaji Da's narration at the end of the Reach arc it did bond to Ted too, it was just too damaged to do shit for him

of course, we need superheroes to fight so now Ted thinks that he'd been kidnapped and fed lies

hey someone aware that this fighting and these thoughts feel forced

the Anti-Monitor boosted Psycho Pirate's powers and is making him influence people on the 3 remaining Earths to fling themselves into the antimatter waves and fight the heroes that try to stop them

heheh Ted really the cosmic representative of Earth 4. He's literally just... a guy but apparently he was that popular

Khaji Da listening to this in Ted's pocket: The Oans have no equals… what are we chopped liver?

I'm just picturing the Reach and their kin on the other side of the known universe seeing shit go down and just going 'ugh, we're gonna loose so many days of productivity over this' and just phase shifting into the Bleed and watching the Oans and lanterns get their shit rocked

again I'm just imagining the Reach watching all this fuck shit going on and going, that is not my problem

will finish reading the issues with Ted in them remaining for this crossover later. It's given me a bunch of thoughts

also, just the Spectre is fucking useless, yer telling me it goes after fuckers who've escaped the vengeance of man and there's a whole league of supervillains just sitting there unsmote

Superheroes said you are not allowed to retire from being a superhero even if we know that you are actively dying every time you use yer powers

the cosmic treadmill can do shit but none of the magic users that's wild. Fucking run fast enough and you can travel across dimensions

Wild that we can time travel to save the universe when the plot calls for it. That we can create a massive time paradox to save the universe when the plot calls for it. But Booster Gold can't be allowed to use time travel to save his best friend Ted Kord from getting shot.

combining the forces of many heroes and villains fuckers are going back in time and across the universe to 'defeat' (read kill, everyone is ok with killing this time) the ANtiMonitor.

Also, imagine DC Comics buying you out so they can have yer characters and then kill off all but one of yer characters in a crossover event.

Also, why did observing the Big Bang lead to the creation of the antimatter universe in the first place or open a second antimatter gate when someone did it again?

The superheroes without powers applicable to fighting cosmic beings really just here for moral support, huh?

13 Days of Halloween Day 12

Amazing Terra! I'd like to request a drabble: the team and magic!reader reigning in the two speedsters after a Halloween candy feast. Please and Thank you if you'd be so kind! -anonymous

Okay I hate to be that person but I just chose to use Bart since Wally is a little dead by the time the next Halloween rolls around post-Bart coming back to the past sorry :c . Hopefully you guys still enjoy this! -Terra

Want to be added to our tags list? Send us an ask!

           You put your hand against the wall for support as you attempted to catch your breath. This was not how you thought your Halloween would end, but in truth you probably should have seen it coming. Bart, your teammate and friend, was a speedster. The teen was naturally a little on the wild side and it was only heightened with his superspeed, so of course, his sugar highs would also reflect that and be taken to the extreme.

           You and the rest of the senior members of the team had already been attempting to corral the speeding teen for several hours now with no success, he was just too fast for even Nightwing’s, Batgirl’s, and Robin’s gadgets to be of any effect.

           “How the hell are we supposed to catch him?” Batgirl asked, equally out of breath after their latest failed attempt.

           “I have no idea, Jaime, Conner, Kaldur, any luck with your plan?” Nightwing asked into his com.

           “Negative Nightwing. He eluded us just as easily it seems.” Kaldur replied.

           “Great.” Robin mumbled, slumping against the wall. “Our first Halloween in the watchtower and we’re stuck trying to subdue a sugar-fueled speedster.”

           “I know what you mean,” You sighed, “I think we need to go to plan B.”

           “I think we’re well passed ‘plan B.’” Jaime said into your comm.

           “True. Plan… M?” You said, counting off the number of attempts the team had made already.

           “Any ideas for ‘Plan M’ that we haven’t already tried?” Conner asked, you heard a whoosh of air followed by what sounded to be Conner falling on his ass. “Plan M better work because Plan N just failed.” He said with a grunt.

           “I really don’t want to have to go through the whole alphabet tonight… so what do you got?” You turned your head around to see Cassie coming around the corner.

           “I do have one idea…” You said, letting your voice trail off. You turned to Nightwing before continuing. “Have everyone meet in the strategy room for convenience… and so no one else gets body slammed by Bart while he’s still running around.” You cringed as you remembered what happened to La’gaan during Plan F, which ended up with the Atlantean getting knocked out from the force of the collision.

           Twenty minutes and one call for backup later, and everyone spread out to their positions. Kaldur, Conner and Cassie were responsible for blocking off key areas of the watchtower. Their job was to corral him towards all of you by narrowing his options on the ground. Batgirl, Robin, and Nightwing were in the tower’s control room, monitoring Bart’s positions and directing everyone else where they were needed should it be required. You, were in charge of casting a spell on the walls, making it so that it was too slick for Bart to run up, even if he used his speed, keeping him on the ground paths set by the others. Jaime was standing ready with his staple gun at the end of the path, ready to pin him to the wall with the blue projectile from his armor.

           You also stood ready for Jaime, you were to cast a sleep spell on the teen before he could vibrate out from where he would be pinned. “Is everyone in position?” You asked into the comm.

           “Affirmative.”

           “Yep.”

           “Let’s just hope this works.” Came the replies.

           “It will.” You reassured them. “Team Baby Monitor, where’s he now?”

           “Were those team names really necessary?” Nightwing grumbled.

           “Yes. It was my plan, so I get to come up with the team names. Besides, Alpha, Beta, and Gamma Squad are overused, so answer the question.” You quipped back.

           “He’s heading your way; you guys should have a about twenty seconds before he gets there.” Batgirl said. “By the way, I like the team names.” She added, with a clearly teasing tone meant for Nightwing

           “Team Beefcake you’re up!” You shouted.

           A chorus of sighs met you over the comms and you and Jaime just laughed. “This is the last time you ever get to pick the team names.” You heard Cassie say. “We’re all set. Are you and Jaime ready?”

           “I’m sorry but I don’t know who you’re referring to if you don’t use the team names.” Jaime said with a teasing tone.

           “Please don’t make me say it.”

           “We’re waiting.” You said.

           “Team… Alpha Super Awesome Dynamite Wolf Squadron… god… are you guys ready to intercept?”

           “Copy that Beefcake.” Both you and Jaime said at the same time before you two burst out laughing. The two of you quickly took your positions however and in the blink of an eye, the familiar yellow and red blur showed up. With the help of Jaime’s scarab, Jaime was able to successfully pin him against the wall with his staple gun.

           Just as you began to chant your spell to put him to sleep, he managed to get his bearings quick enough to vibrate out oh his restraints. Before he could race off too far however, he was suddenly lifted into the air, completely immobile, though it didn’t stop him from squirming around. You quickly finished the spell, and a now unconscious Bart was lowered back to the ground gently, M’gann coming out of camouflage mode.

           “Team Big Gun is happy to report that the plan was a success.” She said into the comm, the cheers of your fellow teammates ringing back out. “I’ll make sure Bart gets back to the Garrick’s safely, it looks like the rest of you guys have quite a lot of cleaning up to do.” She said while looking around at the destruction caused by Bart’s hyperactive run. She was gone before you could even mutter a word of protest.

           “Ugh, she’s right, Some Halloween this turned out to be.” You mumbled, grabbing the nearest pile of discarded papers and starting to organize them.

           “Next year we can just lock Bart in a cell?” Jaime asked, bending over to start helping you out.

           “Deal.”

YOUNG JUSTICE RANT

So I’ve been rewatching YJ S2 because...idk, why not. And I got to the episodes where everybody and their mother is yelling at Nightwing for not telling them about Kaldur and Artemis being undercover and not trusting them and holy hell I forgot how much their reactions annoyed the crap out of me, lol.

It’s like okay yes, be upset and hurt, totally valid, but they turned it into this whole ‘wah wah you didn’t trust us, how could you, that’s the worst thing you could have done’ and it was like....umm. He didn’t do it because he didn’t trust you all, he did it because the Light finding out would have gotten Kaldur and Artemis killed, and THE ENTIRETY OF S1 was proof that the Light had dozens of ways of getting info, from cloning heroes to mind controlling them to brainwashing them and more. Kaldur and Artemis were safer the less people knew the truth, no matter HOW trustworthy Nightwing believed those people to be ordinarily.

Besides, lol, given that M’Gann was lying about how she was using her powers and what she was doing to bad guys and Connor was covering for her and Jaime was compromised by his Scarab through no fault of his own and Bart was keeping secrets about the future, most people WEREN’T trustworthy that season. It wasn’t like Dick was being paranoid, his reasons were utterly validated, except the show and the characters never really....got...that. All it would’ve taken was for Jaime to find out while under the Scarab’s control and Kaldur and Artemis would’ve been dead, for instance.

So yeah, that whole plotline (or rather the resolution to it, or lack thereof - I mean, they resolved it but in a oh we forgive you Dick kinda way instead of a oh crap you’re right way lol). Anyway, it always bugged the shit out of me, I’d just forgotten how much. It wasn’t like Dick didn’t fuck up that season, I really didn’t like how he handled things with Arsenal, but on that score? Nope. And it was BS for M’Gann to blame him for what she did to Kaldur, like, no....that’s on you. True, it wouldn’t have happened if she’d known Artemis wasn’t really dead, but like....it also wouldn’t have happened if she didn’t spend all season going around melting people’s brains when she was pissed, so.....yeah.

Oh and also I love YJ Wally but he was a douche too for all the grief he gave Nightwing about sending Artemis undercover. Yeah, of course he was stressed and worried but Dick knew Artemis just as long as he did and didn’t need to be dating her to be just as worried as well, and like...he didn’t MAKE her do anything. He was desperate, he came to her for help with a plan, he ASKED, she said yes. Sit down, Wally. You’re being an ass.

Anyway. When is S3 debuting, I need it ugh.
