#put me in a room with him

[warmrevolver]

There’s a special place carved out in my heart for teddy boy johnny…

he’s kept in a heart shaped locket in my mind like he’s my forbidden lover I can’t tell my parents about

[darthkote]

i will always love maul because i have such hope that he could change with the proper motivation and people around him.. he was just fourteen when taken on by palpatine ): you can't tell me not one of those hearts could be swayed to change. and from there, it's a domino effect (not a pretty one, but still).

[5uwabbit]

Yet another attempt was made. They didn’t give us two mc because they will destroy him and leave no crumbs.. I know my boy Kel could have verbally destroyed him on spot but he refuses to stoop that low, okay?

banging my head off the wall thinking about walkers love language being acts of service, i cant stop thinking about the scene in TB* where he asked the girls if they were hungry then cut them up a cactus pear to eat

like imagine him just making you breakfast when he makes his without you asking. you enter the kitchen ready to eat a bowl of cereal for the 2nd week in a row when walker just hands you a plate of eggs, bacon, toast and cut up fruit before he sits down to eat his own like nothing happened. no one else seems to have the same thing as you two so youre a little confused why only you get some, but you are Not gonna complain about actual food.

and then it just keeps happening

youll be the first to get served any meals, the first to get a post mission protein bar, the only one he pops the top off the beer before handing it to you. its not uncommon for him to clean your weapons for you too, like youll set them aside to do after you take a shower but when you come back, they are already taken care of and john is just now working on his. he always does all of this with an air of nonchalance but if you look closely, you can see the slight nervousness in his eyes, like he worried youll be upset for some reason or catch him on his soft spot for you, even if its very obvious lmfao

i think hed like the domesticness of it. he knows its kinda ironic for him to be doing stuff like taking care of you when its the opposite of what got him divorced, but god he really does love to care for people. maybe theres a slight bit of him trying to make up for his neglectfulness with his previous family, but if you ever ask him to help with something, he is always very quick to get on it or have someone else help you if he cant atm.

i think hed like to fix/make things for you too, like if you buy a new bookshelf, he just kinda invites himself to build it for you lmfao maybe you only asked him to help you carry the stuff to your room but after he leaves hes quick to come back with some tools and just,,, gets to work. depending on your relationship (like if you two have a love/hate thing going on) he may tell you he doenst think you will put it together right so hes doing it now so you dont come crying to him for help when it falls apart and all your shit on it breaks 🙄🙄 (as if youd ever do that lmfao pls let him be delusional)

its never in a babying way but he does lowk have a bit of white knight syndrome thing going on. he really is doing it out of a place of love and care and he genuinely enjoys helping and doing stuff for you, even if you dont need it. when you two start dating, he will absolutely try to insist you let him wash your hair and body for you (only part of its for horny reasons-) i think hed also enjoy the vulnerability of it, you letting him do something as intimate as touching your whole body, closing your eyes and tilting your head back to allow him to gently massage the soap into your hair, he loves it. he would def do the same for you too, especially letting you shave him.

sitting on the closed toilet lid with his arms wrapped around your waist as you stand between his spread legs. hes closing his eyes and exposing his throat so you can carefully slide the sharp razor over his skin with one hand while the other gently cups the side of his neck to keep him steady. theres not a single drop of hesitation or worry that you would do something to intentionally harm him on his mind, infact its a very calming moment for him. sometimes he doesnt close his eyes tho, sometimes he likes to watch you with those stupidly pretty blues and just take in how gorgeous you look concentrating so hard at the task, he thinks its cute. idk i really love the idea of someone who has trained to never let their guard down be vulnerable with the ppl they love.

gooooodddddd him zipping up your dress or tying your tie for you before any events, he knows you can do it yourself but he will absolutely get pouty if you dont let him (and deny being pouty if you point it out. grown ass man) HE WOULD LOVE TO BE YOUR PERSONAL BAG/TABLE he would be over the goddamn moon if you were like painting your nails and had him hold the bottle for you or give him your bag to carry. you know that meme that was going around thats like 'i shall show no fear in the mighty eyes of the lord' literally walker when you have him hold your bag while you go to the bathroom. hes gripping that shit like its got the fucking codes to nuclear missiles. he is a soldier and its his Mission to keep your cup safe at parties too.

yeah im clawing at the walls imagining him cutting up fruit for you btw him peeling an orange or slicing up an apple for you like its the most natural thing in the world. he is a caretaker at heart.

i need to fucking nuke him

What is religions place in moral and ethics arguments in your opinion? I saw one of your posts and i was curious :))

It was smth about how you can't really be reliant on religion as a defense on its own because you'll never really be able to properly hold a discussion. Any argument wherein one party's only defense is "god says it's wrong" or "the bible says it's wrong" is a copout and already kind of doomed to fail from the start. And how it's also frustrating to go up against someone who uses that as their only counterargument (i.e. my dad) because there's really no way to argue against it without offending them. It can't be the end all be all argument because God is only real to the people who believe in him, and this stance will ultimately be worthless on people with any differing belief. I spent an Hour talking with my dad about capital punishment and it was because his only reason for why the death penalty is morally okay is because the government authorized it and God says that we should respect the authority.

You can't really use God in a moral argument until you can definitively prove to the opposing party that God exists and is fully omnipotent and omniscient and omnipresent. You will not be able to tell an atheist woman that abortion is bad because God says so, that would not work and would only antagonize her further. Something something what is god to a nonbeliever. Religion isn't like fully exempt from arguments or whatever, it has its own place in them, especially with how influential it is in every culture, but if man is born with free will then let him think without the constraints of a theoretical god's law

jason todd x reader - as a guy who also just happens to be a parent?

(warnings: parenting!au, you're not gendered i think but you got a UTI lol. it's not mentioned where this baby came from tho except that she's from jason)

Jason Todd is the dad who puts too much bubblebath in the bath tub because he doesn’t read the instructions.

I mean, it’s a few (large, very large) spoonfuls of kiddie soap (given he just rips the cap off and pours for a good five seconds), it can’t be worse than the time in his 20s when he forgot to buy body soap for one of his safe houses and was forced to wash with the minuscule amount of dish soap he scrounged up from under the sink. Wouldn’t have been such a problem, ‘cept for the fact you had sex afterward and he didn’t feel like fessing up when, a few days later, you developed a UTI.

Anyway—

You find him in the bathroom trying to downplay the fact the tub is overflowing with shiny, opalescent bubbles and your daughter is squealing with excitement. His big, vigilante ass is slipping around the bathroom in wet socks, trying to make dissipate the rainbow-sheened foam as she flaps her hands in pleasure and ruins his progress by making them fly.

“Oh my god, she’s gonna choke on them, Todd,” you scurry to the side of the tub, pulling her soaking wet and naked body from the water. She kicks her feet against you, clearly displeased by the sudden transition from warm and cozy (and covered with soap) to… dripping water against dry cloth.

She whines, reaching for Jason, who’s still puzzling over the mess that has seeped onto the floor surrounding the tub. He points half a glare at you, faking annoyance at being caught in such a silly mishap.

(In his mind, there are much more dangerous things to worry about than a bath full of bubbles. He didn't even have a bathtub as a kid. Besides, drowning in bubbles sounds like the best way to go, in his opinion. Not that he wants his daughter to die, god forbid, he'd kill before he let that happen, and he’s cursing himself for even letting the thought fester so.)

“I was just about to fix it,” he huffs, pulling down the shower hose. Before he even reaches for the tap, however, you’re nudging him out of the bathroom with your hip and a cold and fussy child.

“Spraying water around will just make it worse!"

-

Takes JT a bit to manage the… washing a toddler’s hair thing, too. The amount of times your daughter has ended up with water in her eyes because he forgot to cup his hand over her forehead when he was pouring the clean water over her head… is just, lmao.

He’s good at giving your tykes showers, speedy at it, in and out when there’s not enough time in the evening to have them at the park for two hours and splash around in the tub (Todd children need the exercise, otherwise they’re up all night long, kicking around in your bed sheets—which is funny because Jason is more bothered by it than you, especially when they pinch his nose to get him to stop snoring. It always ends up with them scruffed by the necks as he drags them back to their own beds, giggling).

But baths are a whole other story. They’re part of your routine, and the kids prefer it that way, cuz you know which toys need to float on which side of the tub, and which rag belongs to who, and how to successfully tilt the kids’ heads back so that you can rinse their hair without the soap running into their eyes.

Jason, on the other hand, forgets. Or doesn’t forget, but makes bath time so splashy and fun that he forget that rinse time isn’t just about pouring water over their little heads to make them laugh.

The kids always have fun when dad gives them a bath…until water is getting in someone’s eyes or up someone’s nose (and then returning the gesture before Jason can wrangle the chaos it all causes and stop water from going up the walls) and you have to pop in and give all of them (Jason included, given his clothes are already soaking wet from the splashing) a rough scrub just to finish the job.

-

Jason Todd also struggles with getting his children to wear jackets. Function over fashion is his motto, as he tries to make your daughter put a large puffer over the shiny princess dress she chose to wear, much to her tiny, toddler-version of chagrin. She’s a wiggly one, just like him, making him do the labor of stuffing her in the jacket arm by arm.

“’M not cold, daddy.”

He’s just got her other arm through the sleeve of the coat when he realizes she shook the first one free.

Jason sighs, on his knees in the foyer, sounding like he sounds when he’s arguing with his brothers; half-humorous, more defeated. “You’re gonna be, sweetheart.”

She looks just like him with her cute lips curled downward. “No, ‘m not.”

“Yes,” he manages to wrap both of her little hands in his grip so that she can’t weasel her way out of his next attempts to get her back in the jacket. He gives her his most serious eyes, and the two of them glare identically at one another as he pulls the zipper up to her throat. “You are.”

Worst is when he manages to get a little hat on her, too, right on top the dark braid you so carefully weaved over her shoulder. She stomps, pulling away from him and swatting when he reaches back out to try and settle it over her forehead.

“Dada, my hair, it’ll muss.”

And Jason Peter is sighing and sticking one big hand on the crown of her head. “It stays on until the park. Then we’ll fix the muss.”

(Of course, the second you show up at the park, she’s ripping everything but the dress off and running in her little plastic heels into the sandbox. All of his struggle, for nothing.)

thinking about how Mark is "babygirlified" in every relationship he's ever had and what that has to be like when he's in a relationship with Rex, who when he's at his prime, is a bit of an over confident playboy "lady's man"...

I know the babygirlification has to be going crazy. I'm sure that at times their relationship is very "just guys being dudes" but also Mark does want to be someone pretty princess who gets tossed around and lays in Rex's lap like he owns the spot (he does).

and Rex is well equipped, especially if Marks his first guy (at least in a while) and he's just moving on muscle memory. he holds him by the waist from behind when they're together (especially in public 😩🙏). he kisses the back of his neck. if Mark is standing in front of him while he's sitting, like if Mark's changing, he's kissing his tummy. he goes to put his hair behind his ear. if they have to share a chair, instead of squeezing next to eachother, Rex's just had him side sit on his lap. stuff like that.

(not that guy's can't do this to each other or it's strictly m/f, but y'know, stereotypical m/f things)

Mark had to be strong and invincible and brute force all the time. very masculine by the nature of societal lenses. let him be babygirl with his boyfriend. let Rex put his experience to good use.

I've recently seen again a post talking about the Sableye and Dusknoir's relationship so i'd like to put my two cents in the discussion, for I love screaming into the void about PMD. (this isnt meant to discourage any other interpretations btw this is just my take on theirs and Dusknoir's relationship, bc I think they're very fun characters and I am very glad the game actually gives these minions a bit of relevance in se5).

Tbh I don't buy that Dusknoir treats the Sableye nicely, at least not out of kindness. I don't think he's a tyrant or inexplicably mean, of course, and I think his minions ADORE him, but i also believe that doesn't mean he's nice to them, sth that i consider meaningful for their character arcs.

Throughout the entire game he's exclusively giving them orders, in se5 he concocts a plan that involves thrashing them MULTIPLE times (he's lucky Grovyle isn't one to try and kill enemies in battle ig), and the cherry on top is that the first time we see him being fully genuine he does this:

(yes, he is in turmoil in here, but there's not a single thing implying that 1. this is an unusual response towards the sablye, 2. dusknoir feels bad for it at some point or is surprised at himself, 3. this has any impact in the sableye at all. You can argue these reactions happen off screen and we don't see them, they don't happen bc they have pressing matters to attend to or they happen after they return to life, and that's perfectly valid, but i'm sticking with what the game shows us, here.)

I must say, though, the fact that the Sableye, despite having been almost mindless pokémon up to now, STAND UP TO AND ATTACK Primal Dialga for their boss and even try to look after him despite him ordering them to check on Grovyle and Celebi first is SO important to me. they are goons to the bone and they love that scheming ghost so much.

My own view is that Dusknoir is generally polite to them (you wouldn't randomly break your own revolver or weapon without any reason, would you?), but is quicker to get mean with them than with people he doesn't know or he is seeking to manipulate. He doesn't care about their behaviour as long as they get the job done, which is why I think the anime thing of the Sableye climbing onto his shoulder isn't that remarkable, rather it's a very cute moment, one that is showing how they've been working together for long and how their size difference affects their interactions, but it is not necessarily conveying an affectionate bond (this is a bit random, but it reminds me of Disney's Jafar with Iago lmao. throw your pet sableye at your enemies so they mock them and then return to your shoulder). Additionally, Dusknoir letting the Sableye onto his shoulder is probably as close as we are gonna get to a villain turning around in his chair while petting a cat in PMD lol.

[this isn't meant to be a one-to-one comparison, it's just a detail i find cute and shows that this gesture can have multiple interpretations, with none being the only right one]

Leaving that aside, I hesitate to claim Dusknoir trusts his Sableye as allies, as Grovyle makes a point in the main story of how the Sableye (your Sableye, he says, as if objectifying them; not friends, but tools, weapons at Dusknoir's disposal) are lacking compared to the way hero/partner/grovyle support one another (power of friendship and hidden information babyyyy). The Sableye are used to Dusknoir's way of doing things, though, I'm sure. They know what happens when he's displeased, after all.

I think, most of all, the Sableye are meant to look disposable: they are 6 identical pokémon that almost act like a hivemind, and we are not supposed to think at all about how we may hurt them in battle any more than we do with the angry Manectric pack or random dungeon pokémon. This, I believe, is why the game has them stand up against Dialga and gives them unique dialogue at the end of se5. They're meant to show their inner shine, just as Dusknoir managed to do. They suddenly gain an individuality they had never shown while they were working to maintain the dark future.

Where they abandoned Dusknoir in the Old Ruins, now Grovyle has motivated them to look for their dignity and fight for a better world, and that starts with protecting their leader from Primal Dialga's rampage, and supporting his new objective and allies in their quest to save the future. In their own small way, they've also grown as characters throughout SE5.

I believe that, overall, Dusknoir saw the Sableye as tools, but thanks to their growth and clear care for him, there's a possibility he might start to see them (and by extension other pokémon) in a more genuine, less pragmatic / objectifying way in the future. Now that Dusknoir has the chance to live a fulfilling life, he may learn to care for others without surrounding himself by so many walls. If anything, I think their future is quite bright. Not that the Sableye would mind if he still thrashed them around, though lol, they're clearly not bothered much by it (special episode 0 had a great depiction of the sableye imo, you can check that romhack if you haven't yet).

In conclusion, look at these little guys who adore their can-get-mean-but-is-mostly-polite boss and probably have a body count but now are good, they're so cute:

im so mad at u omg

how dare u make my noritoshi obsession 10 times worse

Noritoshi spews his true feelings when you're upset with him. Similar to a very eager puppy trying to regain your favor by any means...... but realizes what he says and blames you for turning him into a fool. Another downside for him is that he won't take his words back in fear of you getting the wrong idea.

you're just a bully that he hopes will forget about the embarrassing words he blurted out.

hes simultaneously reeling and embarrassed. is this what happens when you make your love upset? does that imply he's your love?!
