Hi hoi hiiii, how you doing? :3 I'm back with (who would've guessed it!) more Trigun!!!
Today I bring you, the reporter from the Noman's Land Broadcast, Meryl Stryfe! And camera lady, Milly Thompson!
This is a little mixing between the trimax ending (I'm sorry guys I am spoiling today's ending, despite Trigun ending in 2007) and a little with the stampede and 98's anime designs (It's all over the place, waaaa~!)
Have some close ups too! I think I see someone more!
I have converted Spaghetti Strap and Skirt Short, and paired them up with Slippers Chunky, all from Sims 4 High School Years (EP12). These are for teens and adults, and come as top and bottom separates as well as fullbody outfits. Set as everyday only. I patched a hole in the lace-up panel in the back and made both it and the bow alpha editable.

While I was at it, I also made a pantless bottom version of Slippers Chunky. Also for teens and adults, and set as everyday only.

Does the mass-murdering criminal Jason "Red Hood" Todd canonically support the death penalty?
No, I can't find evidence that Red Hood supports the death penalty.
There is a difference between murder (illegal) and state-sanctioned killing (legal). Red Hood commits unlawful homicide. The death penalty is lawful homicide. Jason is a murderer. The death penalty is not legally considered murder. Commissioner Jim Gordon is a decorated military veteran, not a murderer.
Committing violence ≠ wanting the government to have the right to commit that violence. Batman and his allies brutalize criminals; they don't necessarily support the state brutalizing criminals. Red Hood kills some criminals; Red Hood doesn't necessarily support the state killing criminals. Catwoman doesn't necessarily support the state committing burglary. Et cetera.
The death penalty is administered by the criminal legal system. Jason does not like the criminal legal system (see some of his run-ins with the police). He grew up as an impoverished child who didn't believe in the system, he was raised by Batman to believe that vigilantes can make a difference that the system can't, and he became an adult criminal who still doesn't believe in the system. He's not interested in using the criminal legal system. He isn't interested in giving more powers and privileges to an abusive system that has wronged him and the people he cares about.
When Jason started up his villain business, the death penalty was legal in Gotham City. (See Detective Comics #644, The Joker: Devil's Advocate, Batgirl 2000 #19, Punchline #1.) The death penalty was also in place during his Robin run. Jason didn't argue in favor of the state having the right to kill prisoners, and the death penalty never addressed his complaints about the status quo.
Jason has rescued people from wrongful* imprisonment and the death penalty. Again, based on his own firsthand experiences, he has many reasons to believe that the system is broken. *Some of us would argue that locking any people in prisons tends to be wrongful and inhumane by default, but we could choose to accept and critique the standard premises of crime fiction as entertainment without endorsing it as moral instruction.
Jason Todd is a criminal: a mass murderer, a terrorist, a villain. He does evil. He doesn't represent or support the legal system. He probably has the least political capital out of all the Batfamily-associated characters. He doesn't promote the death penalty. He commits murder—illegally, as a criminal, state-unapproved.
Some recent comics related to the topic:
Gotham Nights (2020) #11 "One Minute After Midnight", written by Marc Guggenheim
Red Hood and Nightwing team up to investigate the case of a man wrongly convicted of murder and sentenced to be executed. Both of them disapprove of how the broken criminal legal system botched this case.
Joker: The Man Who Stopped Laughing #8 (2023), written by Matthew Rosenberg
"You familiar with Hannah Arendt's concept of Schreibtischtäter? Desk murderers? It's people who use the state to kill for them, so they don't have to get their hands dirty."
I Have Seen Your Tags on the supershark/"shark kent" post and i agree (1) "smooth sharking" is absolutely a thing people do about superman once word gets out about his (too-fine-to-be-immediately-visible) placoid scale situation, and (2) other people in bruce wayne's life absolutely troll him with it and he takes the bait every time because he HAS to correct people. he refuses to just roll over and say Yeah He's Smooth Actually. he'll just grapple-gun out of the room if you try to bring it up after a certain point
me, delusional: "the reason grian said the next life series will take a while is because he's arranging hotels, flights, and rentals. yes, yes, YES! finally, Real Life! The long awaited Real Life, where they meet in the woods and beat each other with sticks!"
So fucked up that obimaul is a rarepair. What do you mean not everyone is obsessed with enemies to lovers with a Force connection, where one side is completely obsessed with the other who barely acknowledges him (but is just as affected)
I present carnival au locksmith because I finally figured out what her lore is (thank god.)
