[start image description: Five digital drawings of Rivers Rosa with various other Firefighters from the game Blaseball. The first drawing is of Rivers Rosa and Edric Tosser. They are both seated, with Rivers looking at something mid-chew, holding a bowl and fork. Edric is seated next to her, following her gaze as they reach for something out of view. The second drawing is of Rivers Rosa and Mullen Peterson. The two of them are drawn from the back, talking to each other. Their names and jersey numbers are visible, as they are wearing their blaseball uniforms. The third drawing is of Rivers Rosa and Swamuel Mora. They are seated on a bench wearing winter attire. Swamuel is turned toward Rivers, carrying a large thermos in both hands. Rivers is smiling, wearing headphones next to them. Her hands are deep in the pockets of her jacket as she slouches on the bench. The fourth drawing is of Rivers Rosa and Declan Suzanne. The two of them are in Declan’s car, with Rivers directing Declan at the wheel, who looks somewhat apprehensive about driving. The fifth drawing is of Rivers Rosa and Justice Spoon. Spoon is carrying Rivers on their back in piggyback fashion. /end image description] Sketches I did after Rivers was incinerated. She finally got out of there.

hi i’m stealing this idea from @idonthaveanyurlideas​ but!!! do you like blaseball??? do you like interactive fiction/games?? do you not like blaseball but like very coolly formatted stories about grief and lose and regret?? well let me introduce you to my ✨blaseball twines✨ (and one bitsy):

run from me and rip me open was written in the immediate aftermath of season 18, and follows justice spoon in the lead up to her second alteration. jumping between past and present, you’re given a glimpse of the worlds that built her– and all that she has to lose. (6k, cws: fire, death by fire/incineration, description of drowning, death, grief/mourning, panic attacks)

ablaze with all the people you’ve been is a magnum opus of sorts; we get a look at several possible pasts and futures of edric tosser that never came to be as he’s trapped in the hazy in between of the hall and the black hole. it’s a story about his grief, and how he copes with it (or doesn’t) and is still one of my favourite things i’ve made despite being a full year old at this point. (35k, overall cws: unreality, death, swearing, smoking, grief)

cards fall where they may is a tarot themed trio of blaseball stories, centring on morrow doyle, peanutiel duffy, and gerund pantheocide respectively. i learned css during this one and you can tell!!! so if you just want to see some cool ass formatting, this one’s for you lol. it’s also full of so much heart, and i’m very proud of it. (12k, Overall CWs: Minor flickering/animation/eyestrain, Unreality, Death/Incineration, Swearing)

what might have been lost (don’t bother me) is a fairly short twine i made for my beloved @tigerquoii​ as part of the FFs fic exchange!! it’s about baby triumphant, complicated sibling relationships, and new beginnings. simple, but sweet! (3k, CWs: brief mentions of drowning and burns, swearing, fire)

the end is near is a short bitsy i made for crabjam2022, a sort of soliloquy about the end of the universe. while not quite a blb piece, you can absolutely see bits and pieces of s24 in there, and i think it’s a lovely little ode to the feelings that season invoked.

and so concludes the roundup of the stara david (non)cinematic blaseball games universe! if any of these descriptions piqued your interests, take a look and happy fall ball!!!!

Battle of the Not It

Just me pushing my personal agenda that the Battle for the Cowl makes no freaking sense once again.

I want to see the Battle of the Not It, Nose Goes, Worst out of 126+ Rounds of Rock Paper Siscors Takes It, etc. Basically, the Batfam throwing down in Bruce's absence to Not Be The One Who Inherits (TM). No one wants dear dad's emo fursona but they all agree someone has to take it. The resulting Loser Gets Batmanned sibling war throws Gotham into chaos, Oracle's keeping score of everything, the one with the lowest score at the end of every week is stuck with Batman Duty the following week.

Damian hates loosing his swords everytime he gets stuck doing Batman. Tim can't stand losing his tech. Jason misses his guns. Cass hates having to talk on can't use words days. Staphanie hates doing the voice. Dick can't tolerate being unable to smile. Duke needs his freaking sleep. The list goes on because they've all agreed they hate to embody Bruce's Batman, no one can put their own flare on it (Gun!Batman will not happen on their watch and they won't risk any other equally horrible variation either.) The resulting sibling war takes place 24/7 in the masks and the criminals and citizens of Gotham are as awed as they are horrified by it.

The strangest alliances form and disolve week to week. Dick cheats whenever he gets close to loosing and dips out because "Bludhaven needs him." Cass flits off to China on a last minute mission when too many of her siblings start forming up an alliance against her. Steph breaks her leg (she says it's an accident but Tim has very vocal doubts about that). Tim, Duke, and Damien start teaming up against Jason frequently and Red Hood gets stuck doing Batman practically every other week. Other weeks, Jason picks one of them as Robin for his Batman week (rotating between them as revenge) and forces a temporary alliance to make another of them Batman for the next week. Alfred encourages the four's little rivalry and manages to finagle them into all staying in the manor full time with him.

Just Batfam bonding shenanigans over how much they all Do Not want to be Batman.

And when Bruce comes back Babs naturally has a highlight reel waiting for him. Some of the gems include: Steph in a cast with crutches say "oh no, I broke my leg, however will I be Batman now" in the most deadpan voice. Dick 'answering' an obviously turned off cell phone pretending it's an emergency calling him back to Bludhaven. Cass saluting the security camera as she leaves with a full duffle bag in the dead of night. Jason in the Batsuit, minus cowl, storming into the kitchen shouting "you little shits are conspiring against me!" As Tim, Duke, and Damien are crowded around the island with a bunch of documents clearing planning something. A heated game of Rock Paper Scissors between Dick, Jason, and Tim with the rest of the batkids watching (having already won their freedom from the cowl for the following week). Duke wearing the cowl and asking Oracle repeatedly over coms if it's time for bed yet. Damien throwing a full on tantrum trying to get out of wearing the physical cowl "it's unnecessary and impractical!"

Oracle sends him the reel a day after his return during the standard Justice League team meeting, helpfully projecting it so everyone can see. The reels starts with an argument in the Bat Cave between all of Batman's (previously unknown to the Justice League) children:

"Well, Dickhead, I guess this means you're it now." The clip starts with a red helmeted man speaking.

"The fuck?" Nightwing asks on screen.

"You're Batman now." The teenager with yellow bandoliers replies from where he sits in front of an enormous computer. A girl in purple and another in black both nod. (At this point, it begins to dawn on members of the Justice League that this is footage from the fabled Bat Cave they're seeing.)

"Oh, fuck that!" Nightwing answers. "Not it!" He shouts. The boy with the bandoliers jolts and then says seemingly reflexively.

"Nose goes!" Bandolier boy calls out hand shooting up and touching his nose as he speaks. Both girls and Nightwing react immediately following suit. A smaller boy with a sword copies them a half second later. The red helmeted man sputters.

"Wha-that-NO! NO NO NO NO NO! I am not the one! Fuck no!"

"You snooze you loose, Bro." Nightwings tells him.

There's a pause, red helmet starts laughing, pulls the helmet off slowly to reveal a red domino underneath, and lazily touches his nose with a sharp grin.

"You're right, Bro." He says teasingly. "And Signal's still sleeping." A short pause and then all the people on screen are laughing.

"Oh," bandoliers gasps out between giggles. "He is gonna be so pissed in the morning."

Why isn't anyone talking about the fact that Pluto's flashback came from this awful feeling of hopelessness when he pulled the trigger of that gun and realized he couldn't get rid of Montresor because there were no bullets?

And his brain went "oh yeah like that one time where you really really though you were going to finally escape and experience freedom and rebuild everything far away but at the very last time your dad trapped you and ripped everything away from you" ?

He though finally there were light at the end of the tunnel, just to see it falter and die right in front of his eyes. Now I want to cry. Again.

something i actually love about the young justice tv show is that every season has a time skip and the writers are like “okay??? just figure it out”

like season 1 to 2 time skip where they don’t tell you that there’s a time skip but robin looks different and you’re like ok. i know there are multiple robins, perhaps this is jason and NOPE!!!! tim. they don’t explain this and you’re like ok whatever and then you find out later that jasons robin died, not unexpected if you know the lore but this is untouched by the narrative and also unexplained. did he die differently from the comics? everyone knows about him but they don’t say anything (until season 4 when they say his name but not his role/identity on the team). and then season 2 to 3 time skip and there are more bats and you’re like oh hello. nice to see you. no explanation they are simply there now.

also season 2 to 3 time skip and there are 3 different roy harpers. you know about 2 of them and then there is inexplicably a 3rd roy harper but again we’re not gonna talk about that, that’s just jim. he looks like the oldest but is actually the youngest. FIGURE IT OUT!!!! love it

giant knife = sword - a cool threating fantasy weapon

giant fork = trident - a cool threatening fantasy weapon

giant spoon = shovel - a mundane tool used for dirt movement

petition for shovels to become the new main fantasy weapon?

They start to unwrap something, and Spoon inquires as to what it is. Edric hands them another piece of lucky candy, which Spoon unwraps. The two of them remain seated at the table, talking to each other. /end image description]

the black hole, for you, was a story of consummation. an act of devouring, devotion in the form of surrender. it was the ending to your greatest story– a culmination of your life's work wrapped in one bright bow, a suspended moment in time for you to lose yourself in.

I keep thinking about yonah meaning dove in hebrew and the idea of kotoko viewing herself as a symbol of peace and salvation....... I'm so *crosses one leg over the other and leans on the table with my elbows, cupping my chin with my hands and batting my eyelashes* it's just so intriguing y’know

Doctor Beverly Crusher @SpaceDocMom I'm continuously dismayed by the fact that local governments in your era are more concerned with hatefully preventing homeless people from lying on a bench than providing good benches for disabled/chronically ill folks or even abled folks who are tired. emojis: black heart, blue heart, masked 11:30 AM · Nov 9, 2023
