rogues giving aftercare after going too hard on their partner sldhfkakhshsiwNcbaheiiwgxak

Aftercare

Rogues Headcanons yeah yeah yeah ok i'm going to make even the nastier babies sweet and soft for this one, as a treat for myself lmao 💜 request info • prompt list • send me a request • kofi • masterlist minors DNI!! 🔞 cw: suggestive stuff, sweetness, mentions of rough sex

scarecrow

his aftercare extends to him staying around and not disappearing

he's a busy boy, he has people to terrorise and revenge to achieve

but if you need him to, he'll stay for a few minutes and hold you

if you're lucky he might even tell you that you did a good job

special move: tough love. it's good to be afraid sometimes

mad hatter

difficult one, because jervis falls asleep almost immediately

but it's because he puts so much effort in!

and you know he would never do anything to hurt you

so it's easy enough to forgive him and take comfort in holding him

special move: being painfully cute

zsasz

good form and good practice in everything he does

meticulous and methodical to the point of unfeeling, almost

his aftercare is as thorough as everything else he does

and it's guaranteed to satisfy your need for comfort

special move: intense eye contact while he reassures you

poison ivy

she'll quietly reassure you, firm, but honest and caring

she's instantly trustworthy and believable, she cares from the heart

and you won't have to worry about it happening twice

she's keen to nourish a relationship, emotionally and physically

special move: using vines like a weighted blanket to calm you

riddler

eddie would definitely find it hard to admit that he was too hard

or that he did anything wrong in the first place

and forget about an apology, he's never said sorry for anything

but he'll make an effort to let you bask in his glory through hugs

special move: detailed feedback, essay format, with grades

mr freeze

guilt, so much guilt

he would feel absolutely terrible

so you're getting praised and soothed to the extreme

he can't cause any more pain to a loved one

special move: placing his hands on sore spots and cooling them

bane

so... he never means to be rough, but it's hard to guage it

his size makes it difficult for him to realise what's 'hard'

but he's got a soft, soft heart for you so aftercare is a definite

he'll say sweet things to you in spanish while he holds you tight

special move: the bear hug to end all bear hugs

harley quinn

get ready to be loved and squeazed until it hurts

she's a bit frenetic, a bit feral, kinda rough and tumble

so she can definitely get carried away

luckily her aftercare is just as passionate and thorough

special move: smooshing your face in her hands and praising you

two face

ok so really it's more that harvey is having to apologise for two face

because while harvey likes it a bit rough, he's restrained

and he never means to hurt you, unlike his partner in crime

who is a hedonistic sadist in bed sometimes

special move: letting you fiddle with his coin while he praises you

penguin

ozzie can get carried away admittedly

but he's always ready with sweet words and praise for afterwards

plenty of hugs and kisses and reminders that you're great

plus, it's almost bribe levels of spoiling with gifts too

special move: sugar daddy shopping spree as an apology

**Shots of the Episode**

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds (2022)

Season 2, Episode 4: “Among the Lotus Eaters” (2023) Director: Eduardo Sachez Cinematographer: Benji Bakshi

[nerds-yearbook]

In 1994, three student film makers vanished in the Black Hills near Burkettsville, Maryland when they were filming a documentary on the local legend of the Blair Witch. Only their filmed footage was found a year later. ("The Blair Witch Project", flm)

[fiftysevenacademics]

The last epsiode of Star Trek Strange New Worlds, Land of the Lotus Eaters, was really good, with a concept I don't think has ever been done in the Trek franchise before, but I had no idea that director Eduardo Sanchez co-wrote and co-directed The Blair Witch project:

FSHG's Halloween 2023 Viewing List: Found Footage

For those who hate found footage, there are seemingly no films good enough to convince them of the subgenre’s merit, and for those, like myself, who adore found footage, there’s always a new, obscure, or underrated found footage film lurking in the darkness waiting to be watched. I’d go as far as to argue that the found footage horror film is a direct descendent of the classic Gothic epistolary…

Jealousy

Rogues Headcanons request: rogues who are jealous of their crush with another partner. i'm so sorry anon this post got messed up by tumblr so i had to delete it and i've only now found time to rewrite it ;-; 💜 request info • prompt list • send me a request • kofi • masterlist minors DNI!! 🔞 cw: threats, posessive/obsessive behaviour, violence, yandere bullshit i guess

penguin

oswald cobblepot isn't the type to wait around for someone

someone who obviously doesn't see a good thing when it's standing in front of them

sure he'll pine for a bit

but anyone who doesn't have the sense to know he's the better choice in any situation is too dumb to be with him

however, for the right person (that person being you...)

he might be known to spend nights in his office, avoiding going home to his empty apartment

because it bothers him that you're not there, sitting beside him

curling up to him in bed, waking up to him in the mornings

all the little things that he's missing out on, that someone else now has

it's enough to drive a respectable businessman to some rather cruel efforts to get what he wants

poison ivy

pam likes to think of herself as "above it all"

she's just green, the hue has nothing to do with jealousy

but the sudden, unprompted, and rather intense development of a mini jungle outside of your apartment?

that has everything to do with jealousy

they can bring you a bouequet of flowers, sure, the decapitated heads of something that was once living trussed up in bows

but only she can build you a botanical garden wherever you please

something that keeps living and growing

just like her intense infatuation with you

and the dead weight your carrying around with you will definitely become handy

since they can be mixed into compost for her gardens

victor zsasz

how dramatic can he get? seems like the answer is "very"

new tallymark system: one scratch for every day he's not with you

although, if he really sat down to think about it

his talents could definitey see him go far here, e.g. his skill in the art of disposal

nothing extravagant or showy, no, this has to be secretive, stealthy, surprising

one quick shot to their forehead from a distance

or a pretend mugging, an oddly precise slash to the neck doing the trick

which method of ridding you of this new love of your life would cause you the least amount of psychological damage?

because he's not keen on the idea of waiting around for you much longer

so you have to get over this current obstacle pretty quickly once they've been dealt with

mr freeze

it's likely been a while since he last latched onto someone emotionally

so there's already a deep connection between you, even if it's one sided, and it's difficult for him to look past it

even knowing that you're with someone else

the thoguht of someone trying to take nora from him when she was there infuriates him

and yet here he is, considering doing the exact same thing

it's different though, because he deserves someone nice to love

he's owed someone to care for and to dote after, and to return the favour to him

he'd definitely opt for a romantic gesture to win you over

something magical, like freezing your idiot partner and scooping you up in his arms

and carrying you off to his lair to keep you isolated for decades in near mint condition

riddler

his proclivity for solving puzzles and knowing the answer to everything has kept him awake every night

why are you with someone else and not with him?

why would you ever choose someone else over him?

absolutely bizarre behaviour BUT you just need someone to show you the error of your ways

someone to teach you, to educate you, so you can make better choices in the future

and of course, he's willing to use force if need be

some of his best lectures have been given with a captive audience

sometimes it really is the only way to get people like you to listen

and perhaps, at the end, he'll offer up a little pop quiz, the kind where if you fail it, your head goes pop

how smart is that new partner of yours anyway, hm?

two face

everything comes down to a choice

you just happened to make the wrong one

now harvey might be willing to respect your choices

he's a reasonable man after all

but two face is not taking this absolutely shocking disregard of his feelings well

it's not even up for the coin to decide

it's rampage time

and no one is safe from his intense violence and rage until he has you in his arms

and if that doesn't work, he can always rely on harvey and his brains

that lawyer talk should come in handy when he's arguing his case for choosing him

harley quinn

ok first of all, rude

she's willing to forget about her true love, mr j, and give you a chance

and you're going to pick someone else

hey! it's not her fault she never got around to asking you out

you should have asked her out! you do the hard work, bub!

anyway, her jealous streak is based in a defense mechanism

you are 100% going to be her worst enemy

it's part of distancing herself from you

and a way to avoid any blame on herself for not being quick enough to snap you up

god forbid she's to blame for her own misfortune

mad hatter

jervis is entirely respectful of your choices

it's not your fault that you didn't see him, or notice his affections

and it's not really his fault that he wasn't brave enough to say anything before it was too late

it's just that the universe has decided that you don't quite get your happy ever after yet

every fairytale story requires a bit of drama

a plot twist, to make the sweet, perfect ending more satisfying

he has absolutely no doubt that you'll find your way to him

without the need for any dubious tea or fashionable hats that might alter your beahviour

and then it'll all be the way it should be, you with him

in wonderland together forever

scarecrow

that's fine.

no really, make your own choices, make the wrong choices

the fear of losing you is fascinating and he's fine to hold onto that

but he will be getting revenge, just for the fun of it

see how well your new flame protects you when you wake up from one of jonathan's nightmares

especially when those nightmares feature your new partner

tormenting you, haunting you, terrifying you

oh, wouldn't you like to find safety in jonathan's arms?

well, perhaps he might find the kindness in him to allow that

but you'll have to beg, and suffer sufficiently, first

bane

ok so let's face it no one is arguing with bane or fighting him for your affections

but he's just such a big soft lug

if he saw you, knowing you were happy

even if that meant you were happier with someone other than him

he absolutely would do nothing to disrupt that

his jealousy would be well contained, never cruel or mean-spirited

he just knows that he would love the opportunity to show you what you're missing

the minute he suspects you're unhappy though, he is back on his simping bullshit with you, not brave enough to just ask you out

and you better hope he never gets the idea that your partner is being anything less than wonderful to you

or he'll crush them with one hand

SATANIC HISPANICS - Review

DISTRIBUTOR: Dread

SYNOPSIS: : A police raid on a house in El Paso reveals it is full of dead Latinos, except for one handcuffed survivor. Taking him to the station for questioning, he calls himself The Traveler, and he spins a tale where he claims the lands are full of magic. He talks about the horrors he’s encountered in his long time on this earth, about portals to other worlds, mythical creatures, demons and the undead. Stories that are based in Latin American legends. As they attempt to unravel any truth from his tales that could aid them, The Traveler warns them that time is ticking and they could all be dead soon if they don’t release him.

REVIEW: Filmmakers Mike Mendez and Alejandro Brugues team up with three other Latino filmmakers to deliver the first Latino horror anthology. SATANIC HISPANICS features five tales that reflect a broad spectrum of genre themes, all uniquely Latino. What Robert Rodriguez did for the action genre with “El Mariachi’ and the subsequent sequel “Desperado,” or the early films of Guillermo del Toro did for fantasy/horror films, Mendez and Brugues provide exclusive opportunity for these talent filmmakers, in front of and behind the camera, to bring their work to a wider audience.

All five stories are memorable cinematic experiences. I could dissect each of these tales individually, but that’s for another time. Each is distinctly Latino, either placing their spin on a traditional genre theme or crafting contemporary tales based on Latin myths and legends. Some are skilled dives into the darkest depths of the genre, some are punctuated with moments of dark comedy, others are over the top gory satire in a tradition of “Evil Dead Two.” Like any good genre tale, the stories span themes of social commentary and satire. All five stories are expertly crafted, from the plots to the dialogue, and will elicit a reaction from the viewer that goes from sheer terror to “WTF” as they run the emotional spectrum. The collection strikes a nice balance between Spanish language and English, and I was satisfied with the translation of the subtitles.

From the visual and special effects to the cinematography and editing, SATANIC HISPANICS features impressive production values. There is a similarity to the style of all five that allows them to feel as if they are all part of the same universe. They are adult grim and gory tales of terror that possess subtle individual touches of each filmmaker making for an engaging experience. There are excellent creature designs, my personal favorite is the final reveal of the being in “The Traveler.” Likewise, the music and score, from all the contributors, creates a wholly unforgettable soundtrack. These filmmakers transcend the mastery of their technical craft by capturing riveting performances from their actors.

SATANIC HISPANICS presents a wonderful cast. Efren Ramirez, who plays “The Traveler,” has appeared in numerous tv and film productions, and is probably best known as Pedro in “Napoleon Dynamite.” He delivers a strong, hypnotic performance that draws the viewer in and seamlessly transitions between tales. Hemky Madera is perfect as an aging vampire as he balances comedy and what feels like the drama of a telenovela. Jonah Ray Rodrigues, Christian Rodrigo, and Jacob Vargas are a priceless comedic trio caught up in this absurd horror romp. Each tale has exceptional performances that will linger with the viewer.

I often like to point out how a film based on a novel should inspire the viewer not familiar with the book to seek it out. SATANIC HISPANICS is a rare film where after viewing one should be inspired to seek out the other films of these filmmakers. I thoroughly enjoyed this thrilling scarefest, and would welcome another collection of tales. My only concern would be the frequency of future releases that could diminish the quality of the films and/or the unique viewing experience it presents. Just like the original “Creepshow,” SATANIC HISPANICS has all the qualities to become a horror cult classic.
