Theres a new mom and pop coffee shop in Gotham that's doing pretty well. The place has a casual playful vibe but it only ever has one employee, which has lead to it having a bit of a urban myth status.

He's there through all the opening hours and no one ever sees him come or go, only the lights switching off and the teen disappearing.

It probably doesn't help that the shop has a ghost themed name.

His name tag reads, "Nightingale" and he always has a polite smile, but the few who dare to act out in his shop notice his eyes flash a particular shade of green and are suddenly overcome with the feeling that they're being stared down by a large apex predator and a sickening sense of dread.

Needless to say people behave in his shop.

Whats more is that his store shows up on county records just fine, but if you try to look into anything your computer glitches out and you can't find anything. Obviously "Nightingale" can't be the owner, he looks only 15. Some say he's a vampire, others say he's a zombie like Red Hood.

Tim doesn't care what he is because the first time he entered at night as Red Robin the guy immediately started making a coffee were he could see, made it exactly how he liked it and gave it to him before he even had the chance to order. Then he refused his money, saying it was on the house.

None of the people waiting in line argued or were upset and Tim was unsure if that was because he was a well known Gotham vigilante or it Nightingales reputation protected him.

Either way the coffee was delicious.

Tim didn't know how to feel when he found out his family was investigating the "possible runaway" who worked at the coffee shop.

✨ Commissions Open! ✨

Hi, folks! I’m opening some commission slots. I’d love to do some more tattoo designs, or character art! I’ve put some examples of my recent work under the cut. I can also do anthro/furry work, just dm me if you’d like to see some examples of that 😌

I’m trying to fill a portfolio, with the intention of getting into the tattooing industry! So even if you’re not keen on a commission atm, even just sharing this post will be helping me out a lot.

Thank you! Mwah 🖤

because my most intense interests throughout my life have tended to seem a little strange to most people, i did - reasonably - conclude that if i started going on tangents or getting excited or knowing too much about odd subjects, whoever i'm talking to would be taken aback or unnerved or unhappy. but i typically wanted to talk about slaughterhouses or free trade agreements or silmarillion rock operas or chemical weapons more than i cared how people reacted, and so i'd do it anyway. which was in its way good, because i've also been able to observe that even if people think you're strange, enough of them will also be interested or at least bemused by you, and sometimes they'll even turn out to also be very keen on the subject and gladly go down the rabbit hole with you. twice in the last two weeks i have let myself start talking with great excitement about supply chains and the people i was talking to also got very excited and revealed they too were obsessed with this to some degree. like yes some people are not going to want to hear what you have to say and tbh some people are going to prefer if you say nothing ever. but i do find that taking the chance and just letting yourself be sincere and not holding back all the time is worth the risk

OMG HI FELLOW HISTORY CAT

I like this song a lot, it's pretty haunting in my opinion! But I suppose that unsettling and haunting things are the name of the game in my story. I think the accordion (?) is what sells it for me!

I love when I can blend headcanons with canon canon.

For example, my headcanon of "Yasmina Fadoula knows nothing about dinosaurs" mixed with the canon of Yaz accurately describing Pteranodons as flying reptiles. This combination produces the super-valid headcanon of "Darius kept yelling at Yaz because she called Mosasaurus and Pteranodons dinosaurs", supported by canon:

Galladrabbles: Blur

Thank you dear @callivich for this week’s @galladrabbles prompt! 🩵

=== • === • ===

“Hell no, I ain’t goin’!”

“Mick, how many fingers am I holding up?”

“Fuck OFF! 10! Now leave it alone forever.”

Mickey storms off down the hall, and -surprise to no one- nearly trips over their cat.

“Sorry Turbo,” he mutters.

Ian follows and tries a softer tone. “Babe, a lot of people need glasses. Imagine if things weren’t such a blur anymore.”

Mickey looks up into his husband’s face - he can see him just fine up close.

“And anyway, guys in glasses are so hot. The things I’d wanna do to you if you…”

“Fine! Let’s go. You’re driving.”

Calling someone with a Dune hyperfixation, please

Disclaimer: I am a casual fan of the first two Dune movies. I have not read the books. I have a question.

I know that Lady Jessica was supposed to have a daughter with Leto Atreides I so that the daughter could have a son with Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen. I know that she chose to give Leto a son, who ended up being Paul, and nobody (specifically Reverend Mother Mohaim) was happy about this.

My question is why did it have to be Jessica’s firstborn child?

I think I’m missing some context, because the way I see it, if Mohaim had just taken a chill pill and let Jessica have her fun and make her boyfriend happy, waited a few years, and then reminded her to have a daughter as well, some of this chaos could have been avoided. Sure, the plan would be delayed a few years, but Mohaim herself said that the Bene Gesserit plan in centuries. What difference would a few years make?

Is there some kind of dilution of ability that happens between the firstborn and the second-born child? Was the timing of Paul or the would-be-mother of the Kwisatz Haderach that sensitive and delicate? Was Mohaim just a control freak? I’m confused.

Speculative evolution side of tumblr I’m in need of your constructive criticism! I tried to speculate some dragons based on synapsids instead of more “regular” reptiles. But do they make any sense???? Pls halp! They’re loosly based on gorgonopsyds but I gave them wings in convergent evolution with the pterosaurs. I guess they shouldn’t be able to fly without air sacs in their body and hollow bones so I’m also guessing they conveniently evolved those as well.

I’m not entirely sure about the horns in general, because I don’t know wether or not they would make sense (I thought maybe could be an adaptation to protect the nose from cold winds and grew to be a communication display? Idk idk anything!). Should they actually be more scaly? More horned? I already know I’ll try with manes, cuz they might look nice in them!

Another thing that looks weird to me are the Feets. I can’t place myself where they look wrong. Please feel free to give me a heads up! I tried with a semi-plantigrade stance and took inspo from thylacines but clearly it ain’t it. (is it even a thing actually?) For the marine dragon I went with sturdier constitution and small wings, for water propelling (should they be even smaller???) and big, hollow horns for (possible?) echolocation. Strong limbs to climb cliffsides and find nice safe spots to nest and from where to dive for food. (on this note... would these dragons lay eggs or... what???)

Let me know what you think about it, I’ll be more than happy to discuss these very incomplete stages of speculation!
