btw when you said that maybe you should've given Tim a pocket Bernard in the Damian Gets a Pocket fic, to more clearly distinguish the two storylines, my brain absolutely did not interpret that as "Bernard instead of Core Four Polyamory" but as "Tim with FOUR pockets"
I cannot IMAGINE how the rest of the Core Four would SEETHE over just NOT GETTING TO MEET TIM'S NEW SOULMATE. 🤣
Cassie, Bart, and Kon: TIM. TIM, WE DON'T CARE ABOUT STUPID SECRET BAT-RULES, WE WANT TO MEET OUR NEW BOYFRIEND.
Tim: listen, we don't even know if the rest of you ARE soulmates, that's really jumping the gun--
Cassie, Bart, and Kon: you are sleeping on the couch forever, actually, boyfriend-hogger.
meanwhile, somewhere in Gotham:
Bernard, carefully preparing his Tim-Pocket a sampling of tiny desserts to figure out which ones to "accidentally" make a quadruple batch of: So anyway how long do you think Big You's gonna keep trying to hide three super-powered Pockets in his camera bag every time he sees us like he thinks he's slick? And also keeping Mini-Me stuck in his utility belt when he's on-duty instead of just getting the poor little guy a mask already. Also that. Like, rough estimate. I need to know when I need to be prepared to trot out my oblivious civilian face, that's all.
Pocket!Tim: /chirpchirpsqueak
Bernard, reasonably: You're right, I should just start stalking Young Justice until I can trick them into meeting me with weaponized pastry. Good plan, Clicker.

i'm stupidly pretentious about my pornographic fanfiction, i INSIST it's not really about the filth it's about some dubious study of the characters. yes they are naked but what matters is that their SOUL is naked. they tremble with both overwhelming lust and existential ANGUISH. the real climax was the profound psychological insights we made along the way.

A Chaotically Sweet Night in with Dieter for Gi 💜
PPCUGiftExchange2024
“Baby,” Dieter whines while he slides up behind you and wraps his arms around your shoulders like a wriggly octopus. “You said the brownies were gonna be done like an hour ago!”
“Did not!” You scoff back. “I just put them in! You know they still need time to cook.”
He sobs like a sad puppy dog and you twist to kiss the side of his face.
“Besides you ate through a whole bag of Doritos Di, you can wait for the brownies.” You huff. Your boyfriend hums. Then he immediately begins to softly kiss against your neck.
“You know,” he mutters. “Kinda over the brownies now. Found something much sweeter to eat.”
You bark a laugh at his innuendo, but you do think of how delicious his idea does in fact sound.
-
for @tightjeansjavi for being a reminder of how sweet it is to embrace all aspects of life and for being such a wonderful friend

I saw the most inflammatory ad for a fishing shop but I’m ignoring it. They’re just baiting people.

Cats and the Other Lives
Cats and the Other Lives is a narrative point & click game that puts you in the shoes of Aspen the cat, who finds herself in the middle of tensions and secrets in a grieving family. Add to this the ghosts of the past that resurface (literally), and you'll become both witness to and actor in the events of this haunted mansion.
❤ Magnificent pixel art; with its rich scenery, splendid lighting effects and energetic animations, the game is a real eye-catcher. I'd also like to compliment the expressiveness given to the characters by their gestures, very effective and which, despite the absence of faces, gives them a real dynamic force.
❤ The attachment that is created for this dysfunctional family, even towards the most irritating characters, as their development takes place under the neutral gaze of our old cat. And, of course, we never forget our little Aspen, adorable, clever and an integral member of the family.
❤ The story juggles dramatic, intimate and even horrific scenes. I was surprised by the psychological violence of certain moments! Fortunately, Aspen's antics are also present to lighten the mood <3
❤ The atmospheric work is great, not only visually with the elements I mentioned earlier, but also with the mysterious, slightly creepy soundtrack (which uses cat meows! rather clever and amusing :p).
+/- The interaction with the scenery to create puzzles to move the story forward is really inventive imo. I also greatly appreciated the fact that there were also off-script actions, if I may say so, where our cat just enjoys herself.
On the other hand, I think the actions could have been a little more varied (in general, it's mostly jumping/sniffing/clawing).
✖ The game could have done a better job of telling us where to go at times, because without any real directions, it just keeps us turning around in this big mansion.
✖ Some of the mini-games are "die and retry", which were pretty nice I think, but the scenes are far too long, so having to retry everything could be a little frustrating and cut the narrative rhythm. Especially as mouse control was sometimes clumsy.
Cats and the Other Lives was a real surprise, charming me in just a few hours with its very feline gameplay and good sense of drama. If you enjoyed living the life of a cat in Stray, this is the game furr you....(ok I'm out =>).
