So this low-key makes no sense but:
Bruce has a metagene. It is that any cape he wears has a pocket dimension. The robins have an uncontrollable urge to hide in it.
It doesn't even need to be a legitimate cape. He was playing superheroes with a besheet when he was seven, and he pulled a medieval battle axe out of it. The Wayne's have never owned a medieval battle axe. Alfred, Thomas and Martha were extremely confused and concerned about it's origins.
Yes, I know Bruce isn't a meta. But it'd be really funny if he was. Especially with such a specific, weird power. That's how he fits all the stuff in his cape.
Like, snacks, and weapons, and Tim swears that one time he saw him just make a whole motorcycle appear from it.
Dick was cold on patrol once, and Bruce opened his cape, and just thought nothing of the fact that Dick just disappeared into it, dismissed it as a result of a really heavy warm cape.
Dick found himself in a warm, cozy, dark place, and immediately decided to go there as much as possible. He then told Jason, who didn't believe him at first but then found himself in the pocket dimension and was like "fuck yeah this is awesome".
He didn't tell Tim, and Tim didn't feel as if he was allowed to ask Batman to hide under his cape even when he was cold, so it took several years of vigilante-ing before Tim figured it out.
Damian didn't really have any chances to hide in Bruce's cape before he was lost in time, the cape didn't work the same for dick, and by the time Bruce was back, Damian believed he was too old for such childish things as seeking shelter in his father's cape.
The robins just think that Bruce got his cape enchanted somehow, and just didn't care to tell them in typical Bruce fashion. Bruce has no idea about this and is just happy that his kids like him enough to feel comfortable with him during patrol.
#batman#dcu#damian wayne#tim drake#kid dick grayson#robin#bruce wayne#capes#pocket dimension#This post is brought to you by a fanart that I can no longer find of batblob and his little birds#and the mental image of Batman fighting a threat with the league and the whole family#and one of the kids gets injured#so batman just sweeps his cape over them and poof#the injured kid just vanishes#and after the battle the league is freaking out#cause they think that batman's kid died#and no one is looking forward to telling him#so one of the league members comes up to him and says#“hey. i know its hard#but we cant find (insert batkid here) and we think they might be dead#and Batmans like “tf you talking about theyre right here” and he just pulls back his cape to reveal the kid.#fanfic

the strength it must have taken for illario to not immediately go full 'lmao since when have you even had a kiss hello lucanis' sibling violence mode during the café talk. inspirational. rook and lucanis really were doing all that right in front of his salad huh
#lucanis is being SO cringe with that line right out there in public and I would die for him. it's just such a weird thing to say#tbf if anyone in the world is used to the insane things lucanis says and would go 'yes yes lucanis waxing poetic about coffee#in ways normal people reserve for trying to get in someone's pants (the roast won't fuck you lucanis)#we've all heard it' like it's all normal I suppose it would be illario. and also he's too busy with the 'shit fuck shit he's not dead#he's not dead of the family members 'supposed' to be dead we're at two definite failures out of two and woe me if the twain should meet#if that IS a demon in there it sure talks exactly in the same bizarre way only my cousin does#does that mean anything what the fuck do I do who do I kill about this' internal monologue I guess#dragon age#dragon age: the veilguard#dragon age: the veilguard spoilers#dragon age spoilers#illario dellamorte#lucanis dellamorte#rook x lucanis#rookanis#I mean he does very much say that to a non-romancing rook too which only makes it all the more delightfully odd#is it a very lucaniscore way of testing the waters. is it just how he always talks about coffee. many plausible approaches here#no one forced him to bring up kisses and 'you should try it' out of the blue like that is all I'm saying. he could have acted normal#(theoretically)#i feel there are reasons to read some stuff into it lol#lucanis when rye says he prefers tea: it's so over cautious overture I don't quite understand myself yet gently rebuffed#lucanis when rye takes him up on the 'so what should a first kiss be' theme: oh we're so back!!!! wait. what. what do I do now#what is this#it's kind of really sweet that rook answers with their own playfully florid beverage based barely hidden metaphor at the end too#matching freaks and having fun with it#as far as lucanis is concerned rye's only true flaws are 1) prefers tea to coffee (oh well. no one can be perfect. cross-cultural love#can conquer all even in this) and 2) weird taste in interior design (did we really HAVE to bring your 15 foot tall corpse statues#with us home rook. I can understand a tasteful skull here and there but this seems excessive. well if it makes you happy I guess)

you always land on all fours
#umineko#umineko spoilers#ikuko hachijo#ikukos turn for a more serious piece... the old man has reigned for too long#now. INCREDIBLY LONG INCOHERENT TAGS RANT INCOMING FAIR WARNING HAS BEEN GIVEN:#it makes me so so sad how little discussion there is about specifically ikuko because imho she fits so neatly into a lot of the more#overarching Big Themes of the game in a way that i have not ever really seen people take notice of or point out in a meaningful way#like even just off of the top of my head. the significance of names and what it means to go by a name that's Not Yours (she has like 4+)#what it Means to be a witch how it represents a person's deepest insecurities and flaws & how its at its core a coping mechanism#the fact that it takes two to create a universe and trying to do it on your own anyways has the capacity to bring you intense misery#^ (how she's shown to be extremely dismissive of her own work and skill until a collaborator comes into her life and helps/encourages her)#and even the family/patriarchy/misogyny stuff that is so prevalent in the rest of the game comes back around to her. even her Only Friend#(young&stupid atp to be fair) remarks that shes Weird for being unmarried + the little she does say about her past invites the question of#to what extent her self-image stems from her family deeming her a freak outcast & effectively disowning her while celebrating her brothers#and i have lot in my mind about the witch thing specifically because i think her particular situation is very reflective of what umineko's#entire magic system and fantasy facet as a whole is meant to represent for an individual. from what little we see of (what is presumably)#her Real personality she is shown to be deeply self conscious in a way that is JARRINGLY diametrically opposed to both 1.) what we see in#featherine and 2.) what we see when she is acting as a Public Figure. because both of the above are very much purposeful acts that she is#putting on in order to obfuscate her true self. and i have always been very resolute & adamant about not totally equating her to featherine#not only because im very firmly in the camp of “featherine is the avatar of the Pen Name & tohya is part of her too” but also very much b/c#i feel very strongly that the stark differences between the two are very centrally relevant to her character & her psyche. as is the case#with most other witches featherine's personality traits serve to reveal/magnify a lot of ikukos inner workings by playing on her#insecurities/reversing them e.g. ikuko being very quick to downplay her skill/achievements becomes featherine being the COMPLETE opposite#to the point where she barely registers even other witches as living beings rather than just fun touys. BUT even though i do champion the#ikuko/featherine separation so hard i ALSO think it is purposefully relevant that at first glance the line between them seems so blurry#her introduction implying a more nebulous separation between her reality/fantasy counterpart is i think is an intentional move on her part#like it is part of the front she is putting up when acting as the Author. as opposed to Ikuko the person who we (in a way ironically very#similar to the way that the Real Battler is presumably only shown during the boatscene) only very briefly get to see take up screentime#which even on a meta level lines up very well with her apparent underlying nature as a like. extremely private largely reserved/shy person#hit tag limit but if by some miracle anyone is still reading this thank you... please see ikuko with the love she deserves... ok ily byeee

reminder that if you back tsuna into a corner he
A) sends you right back into the worst prison for mafia criminals you just escaped from, but even worse than before (enjoy being unconscious and tied up in your one room swimming pool for the next 10 years)
B) freezes you with flames burning so hot they turned into ice (< this isn't how the zero point breakthrough is explained in canon but it's the more dramatic explanation), fully knowing you were already frozen by similar ones for 8 years until, like, a month prior
C) burns you fucking alive and also undoes the last 10 years of your existence across all existing timelines. also he won't think anything about it afterwards ever (?????? like. it's not that he didn't deserve it, to be clear, but damn. 😭😭😭 middle schoolers when you just want to take over the world(s) for a bit, smdh 🙄)
D) is willing to become the boss of the most powerful mafia family in the world with a bloodstained history if it means getting the opportunity to get his hands on you and kill you beat the shit out of you. but you're lucky he likes you so you could stay on very thin ice long enough for both of you to clear things up
E) gangs up against you with all the current and future strongest people in the world, and then punches you so hard he makes you see the light of doing the right thing despite your centuries years old deep rooted hatred which singlehandedly kept you alive as an undead person
also reminder he did all that while he was only 14 years old. this is all things he did in less than a year.
this is tsuna's resume during the course of less than a year of proper mafia business.
so, you know. the next time he goes "i just want my friends and i to be safe and happy and live in peace. 🥺🥺🥺 please don't make me fight you to make it happen? 👉🏽👈🏽🥺👉🏽👈🏽🥺👉🏽👈🏽🥺"
just maybe, consider listening to him
#katekyo hitman reborn#khr#khr text post#sawada tsunayoshi#i just thought about this very randomly but it's so funny to me#he did all this in LESS THAN A YEAR#and everytime he just went back to his normal civilian (ish) life like nothing happened until the next mafia bullshit he had to deal with#came along#tsuna's so scary actually#he's so unhinged#of course everyone around him IS also unhiged. gotta keep up and match his freak#imagine you're a mafioso and by the time he becomes vongola decimo proper; knowing FULL WELL /these/ were his first baby steps in the mafia#you STILL have the guts or incredible stupidity to go ''are we really letting a civilian succeed to vongola???? 😒😒😒#well that's good news for me i guess 😏😏😏 what will he even do about it 🙄🙄🙄''#like. okay. fuck around and be the next person he'll burn alive i guess. 🤡#could not fucking be me

has anyone ever written a fic where its norm who gets hit by one of em turning-non-human-creatures-human-intors and he finally gets to be a real boy and doof has to deal with that
#norm would be overjoyed#and also incredibly bad at being human#he would still like drink oil or try to smash through walls or whatever else#be a danger to himself p much#doof wants to turn him back to normal but norm always wanted to be a real boy so he runs off#queue an entire episode where doof begged perry to help him find norm and turn him back to normal while norm has the best day of his life#doing human activities and freaking people out#if u wanna spice it up we can add perry getting hit by the inator too right before it fucking exploded so he has the worst day of his life#do you see my vision#yes im procrastinating drawing dont mind me

sin eater
#sorry its been a minute!!! the horrors. you understand.#anyways yall ready for another gloom tag essay because here we go!!!#im constantly thinking about the ramifications of uzi literally eating cyn and her now being apart of her.#specifically how it impacts uzi mentally. like dgmw i LOVE the silly cyntail shenanigans in fanart (ive also contributed to this) however#when i really think about it in relation to uzi's arc i go crazy insane#uzi is a character who is grasping for control after a lifetime of not having it.#she has no control over how her peers treat her. she has no control over khan neglecting her for reasons that arent her fault.#she quite literally has no control over the solver taking her over and making her do monstrous things against her will#which solidifies her feelings of being a freak monster who everyone was right to outcast and mistreat.#because im Unwell i interpret her calling herself god as a way to convince herself of having control- and to lock away feelings of impurity#if anyone is in control- if anyone is loved and cherished despite any and all wrong doings- its a god.#and that all comes to a head when she eats the heart of cyn thereby destroying the AS- a literal manifestation of a corrupted god- for good#finally taking back control from the entity that had been terrorizing and traumatizing both her and her loved ones. but did she really?#cyn is apart of her now. powerless sure- but that doesnt take away the horrors she wrought previously#and even so- has uzi ever stopped being just a host? do you think shes terrified of cyn regaining power out of the blue?#do you think uzi ever stops feeling like a monster?#“sin eating” was a thing that happened where someone would consume ritual foods to take on the sins of a recently deceased person#thus absolving said deceased person of any sins and putting them onto the sin eater. being a sin eater ensured eternal damnation.#and i just think about that a lot. when applying that (symbolically ofc(somewhat literally. she very much is a cyn eater)) to what uzi did.#“gloom you're reading way too much into this” THE LITTLE GOTH ROBOT. MAKES ME INSANE IN THE HEAD. OK!!!!!#gloom.art#murder drones#murder drones fanart#murder drones uzi#uzi murder drones#uzi doorman#uzi md#md uzi#uzi fanart

I love this gay ass show with its literally life ending injuries that heal immediately, but only when convenient to the plot, and its ridiculous use of modern phrases, and its laughing in the face of historical accuracy, and its kissing the face of the fans instead of trying to outwit them, and the way everyone involved in the show seem to go 'I KNOW RIGHT! I'M EXCITED TOO!' instead of mocking the fans
#i have so many feelings#i can't quite express the way everyone involved seems to want us to love the show#like when you love something so you show it to a friend and vibrate with excitement while you watch them love it#so that you can scream about it together#it feels like djenks and the writers and the cast and the crew are in on the joke *with* us#which contrasts so sharply to the way so many fandoms find themselves to *be* the joke#the joke being how much we love the show#the fact that everyone involved cares *so much* about the show is really obvious#not just this is a fun show but this is a *meaningful* show#i truly have never felt so much like i have a community as i have with this show and the fans of it#it is also one of the only shows i can think of (maybe some of neil gaiman's adaptations?) where the trademark over analysing and meta#and theories of the fans isn't ridiculed#this ties back into the being in on the joke thing#back when we didn't know blackbonnet was going to be *canon* canon#and djenks reaction to us freaking out that we were RIGHT was basically#well yeah?#i want to write a love letter to everyone but i don't know how#ofmd#mine#our flag means death#david jenkins#ofmd s2#ofmd 2#kissing david jenkins on the mouth

kurosawa yuichi is one of my favorite but also funniest to explain love interests in any romance. Everytime im like "oh hes obsessed with him.....respectfully!!!" Like no hes not a stalker but its hard to describe it as anything less than an obsession that hes just very respectful about
#I stand firm that if adachi never pursued him he would have never EVER told him anything#They probably would have lost contact and kurosawa would just be stuck with this feeling forever#And become one of those old ppl who mourn the one they loved most#one of my favorite moments in all of cherry magic is in the highschool omake where adachi says#'im glad we didnt meet back then so you didnt have to suffer for too long'#its such a sweet thing to say cuz its true kurosawa is completely in the position to pine until it kills him#and of course the graveyard planet#happy valentines day to kurodachi only#but also kurosawa is a freak#kurodachi#cherry magic#cherrymaho#kurosawa yuichi

that ivan loves till is the most obvious thing about them
but. does ivan know that…?
the ivan that regards his own feelings as shallow, the ivan that learned how emotions are expressed only from copying others… does he even know that the love he’s felt for so long is love? probably not. and part of the reason is the one he loves himself
because the easiest example he has of love is till's feelings to mizi. till outright calls it love, and ivan watches him so much he has to be aware of this and till’s love to mizi is totally unselfish, right. he doesn’t seem to actually want much from her—just that she's still there and still "mizi"
but ivan can't be satisfied with just watching he… wants. ivan wants till’s attention, till’s affection—
surely this selfish wanting can’t be love
...no wonder he was never able to express his feelings straightforwardly when he belittles them so much but he can’t stand not having anything either, so he does… whatever he does instead to get any scraps of attention he can, from someone he's convinced doesn't care about him at all only showing affection when till can't see it, right until he knows he's going to die
but ivan's feelings for till are all he still has of himself... to think of them as shallow...
I've seen this translated as "I should've been kinder" to him (till) or to her (sua)
but really, the one he should've been kinder to was himself
#alien stage#alnst#alnst ivan#ivantill#i have a lot of thoughts on till -> mizi too but this is long enough#just attempting to rewrite my twt rambles more coherently#idk why i wrote this so dramatically tho...#'thank you for being the victim of my shallow emotions' is going to haunt me to my grave#ivan's character is just a careful balance between his natural freak nature and his extreme depths of self-loathing#making him the most miserable guy ever#...really once you realize so much of what went wrong is thanks to ivan just hating himself too much to even think of them as friends. well#c...can we bring him back... don't die like this.....#(also you know. with the implications of how 'pets' are treated#wanting someone physically must feel... even more wrong

honestly it's really nice to see the writers Finally settle on a firm concept for artem after like 4+ years.
mr. cold and serious and intimidating "emotionless robot attorney" artem wing, whose parents weren't bad people, but were rarely around for his childhood and oftentimes didn't even show up to major life events like award ceremonies or birthdays. artem, who never had a normal childhood doing normal childhood things like going to the amusement park, but who also didn't have an objectively Bad childhood, and thus feels like he has no right to complain about anything. artem, who was a kind and understanding child who went out of his way to avoid causing trouble, and never outwardly showed negative emotion, because he knew his parents were busy.
artem, whose family friend and eventual mentor neil hume was more of a father to him than his father ever was. neil, who showed up to major life events, who tried to take him to the amusement park, who kept an eye on him and taught him right from wrong. artem, who has never outwardly expressed this, and now might never have the chance.
artem, who - despite the cold and hardened exterior he uses as a facade - is still that same kid he once was. the same kid who was kind and gentle. who is lonely, inexperienced in interpersonal relationships, and desperate for the approval of his loved ones. the one who never got the chance to have a normal childhood, but refuses to blame anyone for it.
artem, who is now struggling with neil's disappearance and possible betrayal. artem, who had to watch a video of neil being tortured for information while being unable to save him. artem, who is usually unflappable and logical, willing to throw his life and reputation away just to try and save his father figure and HIS reputation. artem, who is terrified of falling to corruption, willingly taking that chance if it means the one person who cared about him when no one else did can live instead.
artem, who is flawed, repressed, and extremely intimidating at first glance, but who is ultimately a really gentle and sometimes naively idealistic person who would willingly sacrifice himself if it meant his loved ones could live freely.
taking risks to his career and life for neil's guaranteed safety. repeatedly stating if rosa were to ever turn him down, he would respect her wishes and be content with her happiness. allowing himself to be the scapegoat of public discourse if it means protecting his co-workers at themis law firm.
that's right. THIS guy.
#tears of themis#artem wing#THATS RIGHT THIS LIL FREAK BABY#we lost the plot for a bit the last couple years but we are SO back and finally getting rerailing and solidifying lore

Also I cannot stress enough how happy I am that just this once we got to hear Silver say "Lilia-senpai... No, my father" to everyone. They understandably only had like 2 seconds to react to that information before realizing they are dealing with a world ending crisis and moving on, but the secret is out and it feels SO GOOD
#twst#twisted wonderland#twst spoilers#twisted wonderland spoilers#book 7 spoilers#twst book 7 spoilers#twst 7.13#silver twisted wonderland#twst silver#silver vanrouge#lilia vanrouge#I'm sure they will come back to it later when shit is resolved but god... I wish we had just. maybe a full half hour or so.#dedicated JUST to everyone freaking out that Lilia is a dad and he's SILVER'S dad#this gag has been running so long

That causes Dande’s resolve to soften somewhat...
#dnd art#dnd character#comic#sketch#dnd#very rough but i needed it out of my system#dandelion treehollow#jalester silvermane#lionmane#dande was trying to get jalester to agree not to go to the feywild#where the party needs to go to fix dande's mistake/betrayal#but dande doesn't want them to go because he thinks they're gonna die. or something worse.#he's still freaked out from his few minutes back Home (with his hag mom)#anyway he was trying to have a serious conversation but his resolve was melted away by jalester saying a few quite nice things#dande is so easily emotionally distracted lol#“I feel like we don't wanna have the same conversation.”#links in the text are just to other drawings i did while ruminating on this scene#ugh this is so rough but i have actual work i need to do BOOOOO
