“… why did you even take that, stardust.”

I like to imagine dazai's entrance exam from his pov is just a sensory overload experience from start to finish.

People who are autistic will understand, the months long build up to a meltdown, the semi panic that just gets worse. Ears buzzing with it.

Except it's your coworkers knowing your shady as hell and choosing to learn to love you in time anyway.

I met a girl the other day who is waiting to socially transition until she can get HRT and like.

I *ABSOLUTELY* get it. To be clear I really really do. Obviously I can’t read her mind but I imagine part of it is like. If you do all the scary parts at once it’s easier. Jump through all the hoops to get HRT, then rip the bandaid off at once and come out. And she mentioned a lot of it is that passing is important to her so she doesn’t feel like it would be fulfilling to come out before she has physical changes.

And like. I don’t wanna pretend to know what’s best for her, that’s paternalistic and gross, but almost everyone I’ve known that has had a view like this at some point later realized that they were so, so much happier coming out regardless. Even if not everyone genders you correctly on sight due to your appearance (which, needless to say, can’t be fixed entirely with HRT) having friends and loved ones who know and can call you the right name and know you as your correct gender means SO much. It starts to lift the weight.

Anyway. I met her at work so I couldn’t like, give her my number or anything (because I am a medical assistant in an urgent care and that would be inappropriate) but I really wish I could keep talking to her and get her more in-person community and stuff. Anyway, idk, I just hope she gets meds as fast as she wants them and is able to be herself more. It’s so impossible to describe to anyone who hasn’t been through it how life-changing it is.

honestly kudos to Elementary for gender swapping John Watson in what we all thought was an attempt to make johnlock palatable to the masses and then proceeding to not only make them entirely platonic but also become the ONLY modern adaptation where i actually feel like them being platonic makes complete sense

Toby Fox being worried about fans having a negative reception to characters he likes or finds funny (Spamton, Tenna, etc) feels a bit silly given how excellent he is at writing until you remember that a) even the best of writers still feel insecure about things and get anxiety and b) literally everything about the fandom reception to Alphys at launch

Nights after the engine room

[daysofnights]

when sirius and james accidentally find out about regulus’ crush on james, sirius makes the mistake of assuming him and james are on the same page and tells him he trusts him to do the right thing (ie., let regulus down easy) james misinterprets this as sirius trusting him to never do anything that could hurt regulus and starts planning the wedding

[kinky-cas]

I’m very fond of the idea that generally, prayers are only heard when they’re made in moments of intense faith and can’t be used for casual communication. but dean actually can use prayer as a one way phone line to cas because he believes in cas so deeply and completely that anything he says becomes holy.

Danny commits to the Bit a bit too hard...

So! For the first few weeks after his accident, whenever Danny would try to help the people of Amity Park, he would be treated as a Villain.

No matter if he had just defeated the Big Bad of the Week or saved a Cat from a tree, everybody in town only saw him as a Monster or Villain to he feared and hunted down. Danny was really getting sick of trying to get them on his side, until Sam made a suggestion.

"Why not just...play into it?" She said, barely looking up from painting her nails.

It was just an offhand suggestion, but it stuck with Danny. Why shouldn't he lean into it? The people of Amity Park already saw Ghosts as Evil, and they already assumed he was in cahoots with the Ghosts attacking the town. Why shouldn't he just...play into it?

So he does just that.

From that day on, whenever Phantom was spotted he would dramatically monologue about his Evil Plans, or claim that another Rogues attack on the City was his own act of terror.

Box Ghost destroys the towns Warehouses? It was on his orders.

Ember mind controls masses of Teenagers? All part of his Plans somehow.

Every Adult in Town is kidnapped by Young Blood? Danny gave them over to a friend as a Gift.

He crafts an identity for himself as the most Vile and Horrible Ghost that has ever attacked the City, using his own infamy to cement his legend even more firmly. The town only sees a Monsterous Villain, who has eveded capture near effortlessly for months on end, who constantly attacks their City and gets away with it.

Of course he still needs an excuse for how his plans keep getting stopped, and he gets it when his girlfriend Valerie becomes the Red Huntress. Before that, he just claimed infighting or the Fentons getting lucky, but Valerie becoming the Town's Hero meant he had a plausible excuse for how he kept getting "Foiled".

Val was suspicious, because she was not as involved as Phantom painted her to be, but in the end she had no proof of him faking his defeats. And she couldn't come up with any explanations for why he would do that in the first place. I mean, who would fake being a Supervillain? It had to he something else.

This did come back to bite him a while later, when the Justice League decided that enough was enough, and dispatched Justice League Dark to recruit Red Huntress and help Deal with him.

Coincidentally, that was the same day Pariah Dark attacked the Mortal Realm and sucked Amity Park into the Ghost Zone.

And honestly? Danny had spent over a Year proclaiming himself as a Villain who commanded Ghosts to attack the Human Realm, and he had heard about the Right of Conquest being Absolute in the Ghost Zone, so why not make it official? Why not overthrow the Ghost King, become the Ghost King, and cement his identity as a Villain while also forbidding Ghosts from entering the Human Realm without his permission?

He may have gotten a bit carried away and forgotten that the Villain thing was a disguise...but hey! He was still preventing Ghost Attacks! ...mostly. That's got to count for something right?

He may have let the Bit run a bit too far...

I have like 2 different posts in my drafts trying and failing to articulate this but third time’s the charm: Bruce Wayne is a reflection of the American ideal of masculinity. This is part of why he is very often a terrible father

That one cutscene where Kris talks to Tenna alone makes me a bit sad...

I've also realized that even if I draw Kris entirely normally, as long as they're next to Tenna they look like a tiny child the size of a pea. This can also make me a bit sad if I try hard enough
