I just started reading the svsss volumes (and re-read them again because A LOT IS GOING ON) but like. This shit is so hysterically funny I don't even know where to begin.
Was no one????? Going to tell me that one of the cornerstone jokes in the damn series is that lbh's adoration for his one and only 'tism person who literally cannot express his emotions to save his life is basically genetic?????????
Was no one???? No one AT ALL going to tell me that Mobei-Jun straight up yeets Airplane at the problem in one of the scenes?????? And that in the most hilarious twist of fate Airplane then unyeets Mobei-Jun not twenty minutes later?????
It's one thing to see people joke about sqq and lbh being unable to communicate but it's on a league of its own when you have to read HUNDREDS OF PAGES of sqq's inner monologue be like 'that's my darling boy. my baby. my sugar plum pumpy umpkin you're my sweetie pie' but on the outside he says "get lost binghe" and somehow deems that an effective expression of his affection that lbh will surely understand. 'Why is lbh whining and crying and tugging at my sleeve like a plaintive wife, why is he so angry?' Sqq asks, the entire circus, as lbh is about to fling himself off a cliff for attention--
In short, MXTX is the queer comedian of our generation and nobody appreciates her enough

for the au ask game—dimension or time travel au? 👀
For the AU ask game!
Ohhh this kind of au is always so fun because there's literally infinite directions to take this OwO the question for me becomes what would be the most fun/interesting time or sideways universe to send them (and if only one goes back in time, or both of them 👀) or what alternate reality would it be the most galvanizing for them to see... 👀
Oh. I know. I'm still in my cups over saltwateroracle AKA @n1ightw1ng's Arkham Knight Jason dimension hopping au so...
Five fun facts from a dimension hopping au I'd write:
Your choice of comics verse Jason and Tim who don't get along, enemies to coworkers style. But ala The Long Way Home (excellent fic btw everyone who cares about Jason and Tim's relationship whether romantic or platonic please go read it) they get warped together to Arkhamverse and don't realize it. At first.
Separately, they meet their arkhamverse counterparts. Jason nearly get blown up by Arkham Knight Jason, Tim has no idea what to make of his double being married? To? Babs? They meet back up and go 'you thought YOUR double was weird'
'you thought your double was weird, wait til you get a load of fucking BRUCE.' 'Is the batmobile? A tank??' Jason gets very sus of the 'suppressive rounds' Arkham Bruce fires at the mercenaries. Tim gets very sus of the whole ass people he's got stashed away at the batcave lmao
Arkham Bruce is running on such severely fucked up fumes that it makes them actively miss their own Bruce back home. They help him with rounding up Riddler and Scarecrow and with handling the thorny Arkham Knight problem, but absolutely are going to get betrayed 'for their own good' (or because Bruce doesn't trust them) eventually. So they find themselves leaning more and more on each other as the only familiar and trustworthy face in this fucked up dark clown maze version of Gotham
Things end better because of their influence than in the game (something something cure for jokerism something something Arkham Knight Jason gets catharsis/reconciliation and a shock blanket and some soup) and they get themselves home ASAP and everything 100% goes back to normal and they definitely will not be talking about how Tim totally kissed Jason when they thought they were going to die at the end there, nuh uh, no way, Tim has very important debriefings to write byyyye--
(Bonus fun fact: Bruce is very confused but ultimately accepts the out-of-the-blue check ins/hugs he receives from Tim and Jason with aplomb. He reads Tim's report and goes 'Ah. Yes, dimension hopping will do that to a motherfucker'. He can't follow-up with either of them though, for some reason they've both gone dark for a week. Together. At the same safehouse. Hm. Better to leave that one alone, he thinks.)

New person here, but I'm just here to spread my new HC. Alastor is a pretty crier (Cryer or however you spell it but he cries prettily). Like somehow Husk fed him a drink which makes him sensitive – accidentally, mind you – and suddenly Alastor is crying over a sob story a sinner told them while asking to join the hotel. Now, he notices he's crying easily so he covers his face which people don't expect but when Charlie lowers his arms they see that he is an attractive crier. Like, so pretty that it is hard to put into words and so pretty that people would either want to make him cry for the rest of his life or would never want to commit a bad deed again. He looks really innocent like he hasn't committed a bad deed and when he cries he looks saintly – even more so than angels themselves. And they are all dumbfounded. Like what the hell? Why is someone who's committed massacres, eating all his victims alive, crying like this? Like when crying he looks so innocent angels would just take him to heaven the instant they see him cry. And then the hotel is split between two; people who want to make him cry and people who don't. The ones who don't either didn't see him cry, or are part of the ones who want to become good after seeing him cry. And then there's Charlie who is planning to use his crying face as a last resort to stop the extermination.
Haha. My favouritism is showing. I love Alastor and believe he is a pretty crier with all my heart. Please don't hate me for thinking Al cries prettily...
I love it when Alastor breaks peoples expectations 😌 Who'd ever expect one of the bloodiest, craziest Overlords in Pentagram City would have the prettiest crying face. I think seeing Alastor cry at all would've shocked them enough, but being pretty while he does it????? The fuck???
Also, when you mentioned people wanting to make him cry because he looks so pretty, my mind went to some very dirty places ◉_◉
