I should play Mass Effect....

#i saw the phrase in a neuro report the other day and i was like 'omg that reminds me. i should play this game'#if i use bayes theorem i can determine who my favorite character will be #indeed. i have a candidate in mind already #see mutuals with favorite characters are like voxels of brain tissue. if we know what the surrounding tissue composition is we can determin #what the remaining voxels are likely to be #it's the same with blorbos #i'm insane

honestly my mother was a huge champ about her eight-year-old asking to be bought an unabridged edition of the Odyssey for a birthday present, and then she was an equally huge champ about reading her eight-year-old the unabridged Odyssey as a bedtime story and pausing every four lines to define something for me, and let me just say that I have fucking TREASURED the opportunity to reverse that old tradition by more or less forcing her to sit on my couch and listen to Epic and pause it every four lines for my dissertation

#epic the musical #classics #the odyssey #odysseus #look this is everything you need to know about me as a child #firm shoutout to my mother having handled this whole character arc with aplomb #i read percy jackson several years after this. to clarify. i was a little freak is what i am saying.#i also subjected my in-laws to my Odyssey Thoughts while they were here for christmas #to be honest i do not think they expected me to have a 20 minute speech locked and loaded #but again: they were great sports #incredibly convenient of my child self to have dubbed odysseus their blorbo because now i sound fantastically well educated #when in reality this is EXACTLY the same as me talking for 20 minutes about the animorphs #fuckin gottem

Kinda obsessed with headcanon, where Damian and Jason just randomly (out of nowhere, completely unprompted) start to referring to their shared past in the League in the middle of the family conversations, while everyone just stare at them in concern

Like

Jason, staring at Dick, trying to put Tim's shoulder back: huh, do you remember that one time-

Damian, instantly: when grandfather's shoulder relocated by itself, but instead of properly putting in on its place, he killed himself and mother threw him in the Lazarus Pit?

Jason, cackling: it was hilarious

Damian, no less amused: right?

Bruce, sitting behind them: (concerned sips of tea)

Or, it is not necessarily funny, but it just cute (or sad) details, regarding each other that others are confused about.

Jason, who accidentally fell asleep in the Batcave: (instinctively cards through his hair as he naps)

Tim, teasing: ladies and gentlemen, the criminal lord of the year--

Damian: Drake, bluntly, that's not funny. Back when he was out of the Pit, this was the only thing that could help him to calm down.

Dick, knowing that this is because Bruce constantly stroked Robin!Jason's hair, when he saw nightmares, with eyes full of tears: oh

Jason on the random Friday night, trying to be less awkward about staying with Bruce in one room: actually, Damian's first word was my name

Bruce: really?

Jason: he had, uh, problems with saying his first word. People around him were constantly speaking on both language at the same time, and, I guess, he couldn't figure out what to say. Then, Ra's said that if his heir doesn't get his word in the next two weeks, he will throw him in the Lazarus Pit (as a joke), but I wasn't sure if it was a joke (Talia said later it was), and I panicked, and since Talia wasn't around, I just kept repeating him her name, or just word Mother, but he just, uh, wouldn't say anything - kept blinking and staring at me like a little idiot. And then on a random night, he just grabbed me by the hair, and said, Jason. Food. And he kinda spoke properly since then. Like in full sentences and stuff. I think he just didn't want to speak with us, actually--

Bruce, getting grey hair out of nowhere: RA'S SAID WHAT--

And sometimes they just speak in Arabic, and Damian keeps bullying Jason that his skills are getting rustier.

#i just miss my blorbos #kids struggling with first words when having a multilanguage surroundings so REAL #i was silent until i was like 4-5 bc i was taught three languages at the same time #then on a random night got annoyed and spoke in the whole sentence all while my family thought i was mute or something #never shut up since then tbh #dc universe #dcu #dcu comics #jason todd #red hood #damian wayne #robin #bruce wayne #batman #batfam #batfamily #dick grayson #tim drake

ive definitely talked abt this before, but i literally cannot relate to the posts that are like "ohhh you guys ship them romantically when theyre soo much more interesting as friends". i contain multitudes. i think they are best friends. i think they are lovers. i think they are soulmates in a way that cant be categorised. these statements dont conflict.

#tell me youve never seen veth brenatto and caleb widogast interact ever without telling me that.#and by i think theyre friends i think theyre lovers #sure i mean at the same time but i also mean separately #like #you dont have to believe one thing abt a pair of characters #you can change the context of their relationship as many times as you want #and the holier than thou I Am So Much Better Than You Shippers discourse is honestly so grating.#'but it waters down their characters!!' translation: i dont like when people play with my toys wrong >:(((#we go on and on about people mischaracterising our favourite blorbos in the same way we talk about like. domestic terrorism.#calm down. unfollow people. curate your dash. dumbass.#charlie.txt
