I’ve gotta know. And i know it’s gonna be painful. But what’s Bennett’s reaction the first time Flash comes home and he’s hurt really really bad?
What’s Flash’s reaction if he gets a call Bennett’s been hurt but he’s still on base? Bc Bennett kinda feels like that guy on my old jobsite that didn’t tell me he got hurt and drove himself to the ER.
I literally made an actual oof sound when I started reading this
Bennett is really good at keeping his shit together in front of other people. He's the type of guy to bottle everything up in the hopes that one day, he'll die.
So when Flash comes home and is just moving weakly, he's got a broken leg, and his face is all bruised, Bennett has the hardest time keeping it together. But he does for the first couple hours because that's what Cole needs: Cole needs him to be strong long enough for him to get comfortable in bed, take his pain meds, and sleep.
Which is why when Cole is finally asleep, Bennett closes the bedroom door and sits on the couch. He comes really close to full on sobbing, but he does cry a bit because "holy shit I almost lost him. I could have lost him and I wouldn't know until someone came knocking on my door, but he's here now and he's alive and he's okay." It takes a lot of effort for Bennett to go back into the bedroom, but he does when Flash kind of wakes up a bit and he's not there so he calls for him.
Bennett turns into the clingiest boyfriend for a good two months while Flash recovers. Which Cole doesn't mind of course, he likes the attention
As for if Flash gets a call about Bennett having been hurt, that's a different story. And yes, you're right. Bennett is definitely the type of guy to not say he's been hurt but then drive himself to the ER
Its actually what leads to their first real fight as a couple. Flash is so pissed off that Bennett didn't tell anyone, didn't calm him right after it happened, didn't call him period and the only reason Flash knows is because Bennett made the mistake of putting him down as his emergency contact.
Flash is mad, and rightfully so. He tells Bennett every time he gets injured, even if it's just "I fell down the stairs on base today. I'm fine but I did get laughed at" or even "I have a wicked bruise where I slammed into the corner of a table today."
So for Bennett to not say anything about an injury serious enough he needed the ER, Flash is royally pissed off.
Flash tries to not have the argument over the phone, so for the couple of days he still has to be on base before he's cleared to go back home, Flash is in the worst mood possible. This is the angriest anyone has ever seen Flash, so it's clear it's a big deal.

If we request a ship for top gun do we specify the movie?
You don't have to unless you'd prefer to be paired with a character from a specific movie.
So, if you want a character specifically from the first or second movie, you should, otherwise if you say just 'Top Gun' I will probably associate it with both movies, and choose from all of the characters~
So you can say First Top Gun, Top Gun 1986, Top Gun Series, or Top Gun Maverick - something along those lines depending on which movie/characters you prefer :)
Hope this made sense lol

According to NBC here in the US, the missing titanic sub has been found. As debris. Off the bow of the Titanic wreckage.
And it looks like the sub suffered what we all suspected, and what was undoubtedly the more merciful of the two options: a catastrophic implosion from the pressure.
Also, more info has come to light about the fishing trawler with the hundreds of migrants that sank cataclysmically off the coast of Greece, indicating that the greek coast guard knew about the vessel AND how much trouble the vessel was in, and were towing it at a speed that made it capsize, at which point they unhooked the tow line and watched the trawler sink without helping the passengers to safety. Despite a bunch of other ships trying to help as well throughout the whole ordeal.
So a lot of people are dead, all because of regulations (and the lack thereof) regarding sea-faring vessels and rescue protocols. People shouldnt be allowed to make a business charging a ton of money for a ride on an uncertified, unsafe, un-seaworthy ship going deep into the ocean with no distress beacon or tether to the mothership. People also shouldnt be allowed to enact laws that criminalize the ferrying of refugees, which then force the refugees to hitch rides on fishing trawlers, and which also prevent people from helping those fishing trawlers full of refugees due to fear of legal consequences.
Hopefully BOTH of these events spark changes on an international scale in terms of what is legally allowed to be sailed, who is legally allowed to be the passengers, and what the rescue protocols are in the event of disaster for any seafaring vessel, illegal or not. It shouldnt be just the global 1% who get 24/7 search parties and remote-operated submersibles helping rescue them.

DpxDc AU: Tim as a child was never given a lot of information regarding the scribbling messy handwriting that appeared over night all over his arms- naturally he came to his own conclusions.
Tim Drake was home entirely alone at 9 years old and was about to go out for the night to test his brand new long exposure camera lens when he sees the writing on his arm. It’s not English, like he assumed it was at first, but it was using the alphabet to represent… Tim isn’t bad at math but this formula is complex for his little genius brain.
Looking at his camera, he decides he can spare a moment to look it up, solve it, and get back out into old town Gotham in time for Batman and Robin’s final patrol lap. He does just that, finding the problem to relate to some aerospace engineering and then quickly deduces what laws and theorems need to be applied. He finds a pen, writes down his findings in much neater handwriting onto his arm, and goes out. It’s barely a remarkable night at all. He gets a much more memorable photo of Robin roundhouse kicking a hench person.
Things just continued on that way. Tim would find some complex math, physics or chemistry prompt on his arm (surrounded by various question marks or notes or sad faces)- he’d answer it as best he could and move on with his life. Perhaps his parents were manifesting these pop quizzes? Perhaps his subconscious felt guilty about abandoning his studies for more Bat related pursuits? Tim really didn’t care to think much about it once he became Robin- there was too much on his plate and too many peoples problems for him to fix.
Notably, however, after the attack at the Tower, the pop quiz appeared and Tim wrote back that he wouldn’t be able to find an answer to this one. It was the only time Tim questioned the markings appearance and it was because the next thing that appeared was “Hope you feel better soon.”
… his parents wouldn’t include that on a pop quiz. Cursed then. Tim decided it must be a curse, whatever, he’d deal with the implications later in life.
Tim then has the worst year of his life, hes 15, no longer Robin and the questions from his curse are getting less math oriented and more… philosophical. A lot of mentions of death that, in hindsight helped him actually grieve, and a lot of theories about dark matter and souls. Tim answers back as best he can but he’s drained and his answers aren’t very good in his opinion. He gets minimal feedback.
It all comes to a point that he’s at a family dinner, Bruce is at the head of the table, Jason has promised just to stay for dessert, Damian hasn’t thrown a single insult his way and Steph was laughing at him- when a new theoretical model appears on his arm.
“You’re just as bad as Bruce, Timberly. Hiding a soulmate from all of us, how fucking typical.” Jason points out, while watching Tim scribble back some math with a question mark onto his arm.
“A what? No, this is just a curse. I get pop quizzes every now and then.” Tim bats away Steph who rapidly approaches and began to analyze his arm (the rest of the family isn’t far behind).
“Drake. Explain how you came to this conclusion.” Damian seems more curious than anything, if his lack of insults was anything to go off of.
“Since I was young I’ve had at least weekly math check ins, I never had a parent or anyone else around so I assumed my parents had me cursed to ensure I stayed on top of my studies. Sometimes it’s physics or chemistry, for a while there it was a ton of philosophy and behavioral psychology.” He shrugs his shoulders.
“Master Tim, I believe the lack of adults in your life has led you towards a false conclusion. That is most certainly a soulmate mark. The individual to whom you are responding is undoubtedly your other half.” Alfred attempts to calm the room before explaining to Tim. Tim isnt sure if he believes the butler, though Alfred only very rarely lied, so he grabs the pen once more. He writes his first question back: “Who am I to you?”
The room waits in anticipation and within moments a brand new line appears on Tim’s arm and he is vindicated: “We do math together???”

The reason Danny is failing English is because his built in homework helper sucks ass at metaphors and has apparently never read any classic literature. The tutor on his arm is great at puzzles and math tho.
Danny gets a reply back one night that he wasn’t expecting (Who am I to you?) and he mentions it to Jazz. Who goes insane that Danny didn’t even question it and just went with “meh, probably haunted” as his explanation for the phenomenon for all these years.
Apparently, if Jazz was right, he had a soulmate who was uh, super fucking smart. That was an overwhelming thought.
The next day Danny is in crisis mode and writes back “Wait, WHAT AM I TO YOU??? Can I help on your homework??”
Danny gets vindicated when the writing on his arm presents a shit ton of dates and information for an unsolved Gotham cold case. See, Haunted.
———
Eventually between Danny becoming the top candidate for astrophysics at Wayne Enterprises and Tim Drake being outed as having contributed tips to the GCPD that solved cold cases- they meet and realize just how dumb they’ve been.
