#please do not take this

Wade sat down Indian style, resting his elbow on his thigh and placing his head gingerly in his hand. He chose not to intrude on the conversation Lucas and Arthur were already having, rather he would enter casually if he felt he had something to add.

He was exhausted anyway, having walked a long way to get here, and they had time to kill.

They were still waiting on one more member to their four man army.

Polina Petrova.

A short but very tough Arstotzkan woman, usually stoic yet filled with pent up rage.

They waited nearly an hour, Wade deciding he had nothing to contribute to the conversation, before they finally heard a greeting laced with that familiar Arstotzkan accent.

Lucas instantly spun on the spot, happy to see his old friend. Smiling like an idiot, he quickly stood, lost his balance, found his footing, and then dragged the poor woman into a bear hug.

"Linny!" He yelled, ignoring her struggles to escape his grasp.

"I told you to stop calling me such childish nickname!" She grunted as she attempted to shove the bear of a man away from her.

He finally let go, patting her hard on the shoulder, which barely phased her.

"Its nice to see you again" Arthur said politely, offering one of his signature friendly smiles. The same smile that made the rest of the team feel they could trust him.

Wade stayed silent, but smiled and nodded in her direction as a greeting.

He and Polina never really got on that well, neither did he and Lucas. Arthur was kind to him, and believed in him when no one else did, so he and Arthur were friendly at least.

"We should go, now that we're all here" Arthur said, and motioned for them all to follow him.

"What is the mission this time?" Polina asked, alarmingly stoic as always. Though, the others were used to it now. She either didn't care or she was pissed. Sometimes she would laugh at Wade or Lucas' dumb jokes, but usually she rolled her eyes, as, well, their jokes weren't that funny.

"Another search for Nazi Intel." Arthur waved it off, instead asking Polina how she had been.

Wade couldn't focus though, he felt they were being watched. He waited a few minutes before finally hushing the group and alerting them to this discrepancy.

"Watched from where?" Lucas asked, taking the hint not to look around for the culprit and give away that he had been spotted.

"I don't know, dipshit!" Wade snapped. "I just can't shake the feeling."

"And we're supposed to just trust your 'feeling'?" Lucas gave an unimpressed look, clearly not feeling the urgency anymore.

"I would trust his intuition, Lucas" Arthur warned. "Wade has very strong senses."

Wade simply nodded in reply, but looked panicked before anyone could continue.

"I heard a rifle bolt!"

"From wh-"

Before Polina could finish her question, she was shoved to the ground hard enough that she bounced as she landed on her side. Her pilotka fell beside her, crumpling and hiding the Arstotzkan badge on the front.

Wade dropped to the ground in her place, eyes slowly rolling to the back of his head.

One eye anyway. The other was missing along with half of his skull, where a high powered rifle had cut through him.

"For Kolechia!" A man yelled. The remaining three snapped their attention in the direction of the voice, only to see a short man dressed in red leap down from a tree and sprint in the opposite direction.

"NOOO!" Polina screamed, realizing that Wade had given his own life to protect her. She somehow felt guilty, as if she had been the one who sent a bullet tearing through his very being.

Quickly, she shot to her feet and sprinted after the man in red, whipping her own rifle around her shoulder and over her arm.

While still running, she took aim, carefully, and waited until the exact moment the man's leg was in her crosshairs before she pulled the trigger.

The man fell, screaming in pain at his mostly severed limb, grasping for his rifle that had been flung from his hands. Polina kicked it away.

"You fucking Kolechians. Always trying to fuck things up!" She spat.

"Now you kill an innocent man! How dare you drag other countries people into your own pathetic hatred! You and all your people can BURN IN HELL!"

She drove the butt of her rifle into his skull again and again, until she finally heard a satisfying crack and the man's body went limp.

She growled in frustration. Maybe she didn't like Wade much, but that didn't mean she wanted him dead. She actually quite liked having him around, even with his cocky attitude.

"Polina.." Arthur carefully approached her, placing a hand on her shoulder.

"I fucking hate Kolechians." She seethed through her clenched teeth.

She started to cry, for reasons even she didn't understand. Wade was annoying, yes, but he was a good man and a didn't deserve to die. Especially protecting her from a war he had no part in.

"I'LL KILL EVERY LAST ONE!" She screamed at nothing, driving the back of her rifle into the dirt.

Lucas joined Arthur in comforting the Arstotzkan, gingerly resting his own hand on her back.

IT WAS ERIC AFTER ALL!!!! I'm so glad we got to meet him (before Vil snaps him away with those Infinity Gauntlets) (can't wait to see what happens when we get the matching Infinity Tiara to go with them, there will be no survivors)

(sorry to be so slow/rough lately, just got a lot of stuff on the ol' brain at the moment! alas, if only I could spend all my time drawing incredibly stupid characters I mean I do but)

Did Danny abuse the fact the GIW needed his parents tech. Yes of course. Danny not phantom seemed to be the trouble maker as of late. His parent threatened to withhold tech and blue prints from them if the GIW touched their kids.

Did he get caught breaking ember and boxy out of a government facility? yes. He expected the lecture he got.

The next jail break. It was not him. It was sam, Then the third. Also not him. That was Val… then it was Tucker. But not him.

The blame fell on him.

He did not expect to be shipped out of state. The GIW were happy to cover all costs. Even got him into a decent highschool. And had an apartment all arranged.

Gotham?

Not where he was expecting.

The assassination attempts. Also surprising.

Not so surprising. Tucker found out the GIW wanted to “silence” him. Offering a lot of money.

Of course his parents don’t listen. He is 15 perfectly fine to be all alone. Even if he is near some place with the nickname crime alley. Nope. He is just being dramatic. They tell him no one wants him dead.

this scene was 10x more emotional and romantic than any scene between them and those boys

People go on about good healthy queer rep but I cannot express how much I want unhealthily devoted queer rep. Raise your lover from the dead no matter the cost. Kill to get them to safety. Trade your soul for theirs. Die to reunite with them. I want gothic hyper-devotion codependent lovers

Bruce googling “Top Ten Clues Your Teammates Know Your Secret Identity” There was that post going around about members of the justice league playing “fuck, marry, kill” with Bruce Wayne in the mix, and, well.

Actually Batman shouldn't kill. The reason he doesn't kill is because he believes wholeheartedly in the good in humanity and the sacred value of all life. His belief in rehabilitation and second chances is meant to put him in contrast with the corruption in Gotham, both with regard to the corrupt justice system/police force and the criminals, who all take lives with no regard for its value. Being surrounded by such fatal violence and corruption on a systemic level and even being affected by it on a personal level, and yet finding the strength to not only rise beyond it, but to fight for a way to fix and save the very cause of such unfathomable pain is what defines the character of Batman. Batman is about protecting the innocent and fighting against injustice so that what happened to him never happens to anyone else. Batman is about breaking the cycle of killing and rising beyond it to become a beacon of hope for a better future. Batman killing and taking justice into his own hands is literally the antithesis to his character. If your Batman kills, then he is not Batman.

You!! Hey you!! Are you looking for a pair of kittens? Do you live In Or Near Oklahoma? Do you wish you could listen to purring all the time? Do you want a cat that looks like an aye-aye?

long story short, we found these two kittens at the bottom of a garbage can!! I don't like to think about how they ended up in there- but we heard them crying while on a walk, and it's very lucky they were so loud! They were scared at first, but now they NEED to be snuggled at all times. Crazy how adaptable kittens are. I'd prefer to rehome them as a pair, but I'd consider adopting them out individually if that's my only option! Please IM me if you're interested in both/either of these babies, or if you have any questions at all!!

This is a terrifying norm I’ve been seeing in fandom recently, with a lot of people asking for photo ID’s to enter a server or for 18+ commissions or to follow a private Twitter account. While I understand the sentiment and realize that there’s an issue of minors trying to get into adult spaces, this is an incredibly dangerous practice that needs to stop.

I have seen this popping up more and more in the past year and frankly, I’m sick of sitting back and watching it become a social norm. Not to mention, there is a huge difference between a company with a team of lawyers and legal statements with the intention to protect your information and giving this to a random person online.

Here is an article from IAPP discussing more in depth the current difficulties for age verification online.  Thanks to @murmurkins for digging around to find this!

Here is also some resources for Discord specifically on how to moderate and run a server that has 18+ channels and designating a server as 18+. Discord also notes that if you are locked out of 18+ channels, you can appeal this by sending a picture of yourself and either a photo ID or your Discord tag. Again, while not a perfect solution, this is their last resort, not the intial requirement. It’s dangerous to do, and Discord recognizes this, which is why they have a system to protect your information AND they require that all third-party individuals have a privacy policy telling individuals how they will protect others’ information. 

If anyone wants to respond to this post with more information on other websites, feel free! The biggest issue I have seen with this is on Discord, so that is where my information is focused.

TL;DR: Don’t give your ID out online to random people for your safety. Make sure who you are giving personal information to has a privacy policy. While it is an issue that minors are accessing 18+ content, this is not a safe solution to the problem.
