it will literally never not be funny to me that Jason and Tim's first ever interaction was the Titans Tower Incident where Jason insulted Tim for "living in luxury" as a child and then beat him half to death while Tim flat-out told Jason "I'm better than you" and snarked that the only reason Bruce hadn't beaten Jason into the ground yet was because he was holding back
and then their second interaction was this

“You’re such a pretty man,” Makino sighed, touching her fingertips to his cheek, before rubbing his beard with her thumb. “Your wife is very lucky. Oh—hey.” Her whole expression brightened, her smile entirely cheeky. “That’s me.”
Shanks grinned, delighted. “You are absolutely hammered, aren’t you?”
“Hmm, I think I’m about to be.” She frowned. “Wait—was that not a euphemism?”
My masked Zorro, the unbelievably generous and tantalisingly mysterious Cover Anon, sweeps in once more with another gorgeous cover from Shanties, this time for Penelope (aka, the wedding fic, my beloved), by the incredible @sacred_pirate on twitter.
I...don't know how it's possible to capture the way a fic exists in my mind so perfectly it's like the artist reached into my soul, and yet that's what this feels like. This is one of the most beautiful artworks I've ever seen, and I can't believe it's from my fic, and this fic.

listen. when this gets animated??
I have cried a lot with this series so I know seeing this animated will make me a puddle on the floor. Especially with how the anime used the tightrope metaphor to begin the first episode and how it was the scathing words of those around Sakura that whipped up the wind and make him (his heart) unsteady on the tightrope ultimately leading him to fall.
But here, after Keel, Sakura's willingly jumping from the tightrope. He's started to learn that Furin is not like where he was before. That the people here are not like the ones before. Yet there's still that lingering “what if” — “what if they only see me because my fighting strength has been of use to them? who am I now now that I've failed them?”. And class 1-1 cuts through these thoughts and Sakura realises he wasn't jumping from a high place into an abyss at all. It's grassy, it's open, it's warm, it's free.
And they're there. the ones he's slowly learning to see as friends. As family. They don't shun him or judge him. They reach out to him.
And this is where he confirms it for himself that he wants to stay with them, that he wants to fight for them, and I just— *sobbing on the floor*

hot take moment cwilbur is literally just psychotic as all hell and i think people got way too comfortable villianizing the shit out of a man who was clearly portraying signs of severe mental illness. cwilbur was like im so fucking paranoid and scared and i think everyone is out to get me and hurt me and ive spiralled to the point i cant reach out to the people closest to me because im so afraid and lost in this spiral and im having constant panic attacks and hurting myself because i dong know what to do with myself and the only way out for me is to die. and everybody was like EVIL MAN WHO ENJOYS HURTING OTHERS AND IS ABUSIVE ON PURPOSE AND A VILLAIN AND SHOULD NEVER BE TRUSTED AGAIN. and then he came back and was like im still deeply troubled and afraid but im desperately trying to make up for the wrongs i did in the past and the people i hurt in my own way and communication is really hard for me but i hope people know that im truely sorry and i love them. im going to try my hardest to fix this in the only way i know how and then respectfully remove myself from the situation because i feel thats the kindest thing i can do to the people ive hurt. and people were like ABUSER ABUSER ABUSER EVIL MAN ABUSER. like girl
Yeah no based true real no questions asked
I'd hope I manage to portray Wilbur the way he deserves in my content, cause that man is heavily bpd coded and he just needs therapy and someone who genuinely loves him but also can handle his bullshit (which has exclusively and reliably been Quackity like, canonically)
But yeah no completely agreed. The man has issues and has definitely fucked up a lot but at the end of the day he really does need love and care and patience, but also boundaries (and therapy and meds, obviously)
