I think mayhaps that Batman should exclusively be a member of the Justice League Dark. He doesn't really like working with people but also sometimes John Constantine is like "You know Batsy, If you help me save the world by proxy it saves Gotham" So he does begrudgingly. But only sometimes when they need help with some things because he's like a very good detective and sometimes you need that! But also mostly I just want the rest of the Justice League to not believe that The Batman is real??

There's an issue that they need dealt with and they think it's a demon so they call Constantine and he's like "nah mate, this is just weird ritualistic sacrifices, I got a call to B-man on this one"

And Superman is like "haha The Batman isn't real... Right?" And then they meet him and he is very much real.

And Diana is all like "Oh Clark you silly, obviously The Batman is real" But internally she's like "holy shit The Batman is real???"

Green Arrow still doesn't believe it because he keeps missing any mission that The Batman happens to go on and he's like "If The Batman was real my best friend Brucie Wayne would have told me so. Brucey said that the Batman is just a scare tactic created by the Gotham Police department" So he's pretty sure that the rest of the Justice League is just playing a long practical joke against him specifically

#justice league #justice league dark #john constantine #batman #I also specifically want all of Bruce's children to call him (Constantine) “Uncle John” #because of running bit where he insists that magic isn't real #'I worked in a circus Uncle John I know all of the tricks You can't fool me haha silly uncle John“ #And John is like 'boy you literally watched me raise a zombie from the dead #'You have literally seen so much magic happen right before you're very eyes' #and dick is like 'hahaha smoke and mirrors :)' #I think Tim would have a good aptitude for doing magic so John is mostly teaching him things along with zantana #I think once Jason comes back from the dead he would be very strong at doing magic but also I think it would be very volatile #and hard to control #I'm imagining holiday dinners where zantana and John both come but they're not dating right now so it's very awkward #obviously Jason Blood/Etrigan are there #the gay uncles if you will #also deadman is there But I don't imagine he's visible all the time unless they cast some sort of spell #Bruce would very much like it if these people were not in his house all the time #But his children are attached so what is he to do

Janeway in 'Nothing Human' vs Tuvok in 'Resolutions' There's something here I know there is I can almost wrap my teeth around it.

#I can't watch Nothing Human bc the puppet really disconcerts me #but I cannot believe Janeway really came into B'Elanna's room after all that and the FIRST thing she says...her OPENER is #'Wow it smells awful in here~!' #DUDE....................TIME AND PLACE #HEHEHHE #C'MON MAN #B'Elanna: Is [putting it behind us] an order? / Janeway [normal!]: Yes. #'And what emotion is that?' C'MON MAN!!!!!! #Janeway & Tuvok #Kathryn Janeway #Tuvok #I can see why she and Tuvok are friends #'I understand you're upset but fall in line' #You can be upset but not if effects your work #<- Something which would be fine on a regular ship but is very difficult on Voyager #I think Janeway's certain coldness or ruthlessness which can be aimed at either friend or foe is an interesting #aspect of her personality #Ex: She and B'Elanna COULD have feasibly had a more touching scene together to close out the episode but they don't #I don't know if I'm explaining myself well right now I'm a bit ill and more than a bit tired #Something about uhh maybe....people under their command vehemently and emotionally disagreeing with them/their decisions?? #you can disagree with me but not if you don't follow me anyway #Voyager a ship full of contradictions #they have to all work together and they are all closer emotionally than any other starship due to their situation #but they are also still 'at work' and are expected to follow orders. It's like a 'casual' hierarchy but it's still a hierarchy #and you can't fall too far out of line bc you're someone dear to me #but you're also a valued cog in the machine #and even though you ARE valued you ARE still a cog in the machine #but you're also my dear friend. and all of these things are true at once. #all of that of course but also Janeway & Tuvok are displaying a very particular kind of shared leadership style in these moments #Janeway is obviously on the whole MUUUCH more charismatic and understanding than Tuvok but still - when push comes to shove...

Do you guys think that like Bruce stars in commercials for like expensive cars (or those very artistic perfume / cologne commercials), and every time he comes home, someone Jason has it playing on a screen somewhere at full volume. Like it HAUNTS him LMAO

#i am very into Batman #and batfam stuff right now #I have so many drawing ideas but I am doing grad school work that I'm just spitballing #LMAO #crying #you know what commercials I'm talking about #where you can't tell what the product is but it was so wild you watched the whole thing.... #speaking from experience #dweeb talks #batman #batfam #bruce wayne #jason todd #dc comics

[batfamfucker]

There are four main types of Batfam fans in regard to how people interpret Bruce Wayne as a dad (/Joking. This is mostly satire and should not be taken seriously):

Fans that think Bruce is emotionally constipated and isn't the best at being a parent but still tries (Differs per person). Don't necessarily think he's absuive but thinks he can be toxic or have unhealthy expectations for the Robins. Can smell the Oldest Daughter Syndrome coming from Dick and have Family Line (By Conan Gray) as their top song on their Dick inspired playlist and Daddy Issues (By The Neighbourhood) for Jason.

Fans that choose to believe Bruce goes to therapy in their own canon. Love B:WFA. Thinks the comic can be cheesy at times and so find a balance between B:WFA Bruce and Please Go To Therapy BruceTM as their middle ground. He struggles. They advocate that Bruce is not a bad parent, he just has bad writers that seem to forget Bruce wouldn't hurt kids, especially not his own. Love the humane moments and scenes he has in BTAS and the early JL cartoons. He may not be perfect but he's not literally abusive. Whores for Bruce being able to admit when he is wrong and for Jason and Bruce reconciling. I recommend Grow As We Go by Ben Platt for this one.

A mix between the first two. Was fine-ish when Dick was younger. Didn't help him in the healthiest way but eh. Still emotionally constipated but that happened more so after Dick left and Jason died. Started getting better when Tim came back but was still closed off. Should probably go to therapy with the kids so they can drag his ass about all the things he's done that have actually affected them negatively. Understands his mistakes and is also able to admit when he's wrong, eventually. It's not easy but he starts to do better and learns to be more emotionally available. Still has to get chewed out by Alfred sometimes but definitely better than he used to be and it shows. Reconciliation is slow and gradual but progress is made for everyone involved.

The one's I personally avoid for my own sanity and wellbeing:

Think Bruce is a complete bastard and abuser. Want him to choke. Hate any and all interpretations of him. Some of which will refuse to understand how anyone could have a different interpretation. Will point out comics where, in all fairness, he is a dick but forget that characterisation can significantly differ from one series to the next, as comic characters are constantly passed around to different writers and have been for decades. Not to mention movies, shows, etc.

#Bruce Wayne #Batman #Batfam #Batdad #I'm not tagging everyone in the Batfam I can't be assed #Sorry there's like 500 #Bruce has a child for every mental disorder he has #Dick is his ADHD. Jason is his C-PTSD. Tim is his Anxiety. Cass is his OCD. Damian is his Autism. #Like bro the therapist is RIGHT there #You have the money just GO #I am a mix of 2 and 3 tbh but more so 2 because he is my comfort fictional father figure.

I'd be in debt by now #I get that you saw Tom Kings work. So did I. I hate that fuck. But I personally prefer the scene of him in JL with Ace on the swings #Or the one with him playing with shape block toys with a baby whilst Supes and WW handle the questioning #Or when he hugs literally any of his kids #Or the one of him and Jason watching a movie and eating popcorn when Jason's ill. And they have the picture of them posing #Or when he cried in Flashpoint over the letter his dad left him because the little boy in him needed that #Plus any time Bruce and Clark interact as Best Friends.

Ive seenyou mention wuxia a few times now and i wonder what that is. Would you mind explaining it to me?

not the most qualified person to explain this as i'm not, in fact, from china; but i've read a couple of wuxia so here goes:

wuxia is a genre of fiction from china specifically, about martial artists in ancient china. i don't think a specific time period is like required? obviously some dynasties are more popular but idk how it goes in that front. it just has to be Not Today and probably Too Long Ago. like pre industral revolution i think. again idk if that's a requirement, but most i've seen are from around the same relative murky pre-electricity era.

xianxia is a subgenre of wuxia that's specifically more fantasy-like, and it's not just martial arts, but also spiritual powers and cultivation (which i have no fucking clue how to explain without two hours and three tangents other than chinese magic system. if you've ever heard of chi/qi as an energy, it appears there). so like- genshin is by all accounts a xianxia, it just doesn't use the more common specific xianxia terms like cultivation. some of those are very weird to translate and probably not common for the average non-wuxia reader, so it makes sense why they're going for alternatives.

chongyun and xingqiu and xianyun are very much straight out of a xianxia. xianyun's entire story quest was the closest genshin has gotten to a straight xianxia plot so far. i highly reccomend ashikai's video on unnecessary visions if you want more info on why genshin is a xianxia hahah

cyanide narwhal has some talk of some stuff from xianxia, but that's mostly because well- fucking liyue, that's how it works there. the whole light energy striking down someone who's getting powerful and giving them godhood if they survive the strike is, while not exactly like that, something that happens in some xianxia as well. like the way adepti work in general is just very xianxia. ashikai does a much better job explaining it than i do tbh but yeah

TL;DR: wuxia is chinese martial arts fiction in ancient china, and xianxia is a wuxia subgenre with more magic elements. also genshin is a xianxia

#i was going to recomend some xianxia if you're curious but like #genuinely don't know which one is a good starting point #like i'm tempted to say just dive headfirst into mdzs like most of us did but like #is mdzs the best place to start if you know nothing? unsure #genuinely #given how it's made to feel more lighthearted and formatted more like it's a fucking videogame #svsss might be a good launching pad #but tbf it's been a while since i read it #also it has unskippable sex scenes (i think??) so like- if you don't want to read that you're kind of out of luck there #not that mdzs doesn't have that either but they're not literally Plot Relevant. like the plot does not hinge on their horizontal tango #there's probably a good wuxia to start out there but i can't really remember right now #like mdzs is the easiest to recomend bc it's trial by fire and you're going to come out of the other end knowing like 80% of it all #plus it's not nearly as traumatizing as some of the other options #and it's so easily accessible it's almost funny #like take your pick: novel. live action. animation. audio drama. comic #it's fucking everywhere and the fandom is fucking huge so that's a giant plus #but that doesn't change the fact that idk if you can watch a couple episodes to get a feel for the wuxia genre. like would that work?? #so i guess i'll leave that to everyone else to comment with any recomendations if they have a good one #for like an introductory work #or just decide mdzs is just the easiest point of entry. that can always be it. i mean we all made it anyway

[justalittlebluetiefling]

I haven't really told anyone what's been going on and I'm wondering if it'll be better if I at least write it down somewhere. Below the cut because reasons.

I don't like, want sympathy or anything. I don't need it. My last grandparent passed away on Friday. We were expecting it for a while so it wasn't a surprise. She's on my dad's side of the family and the relationship there has always been extremely complicated. Do I have good memories with her? Sure. But the bad ones outweigh the good. I haven't cried or anything about it and I think part of that is because I haven't told anyone (outside of my family and my best friend) so I haven't been getting the "oh my god I'm so sorry" thing and I haven't told anyone on purpose because I don't want that, because I don't really want to cry over her anyway. But then I feel guilty for not doing that and you know, it's a whole cycle. Honestly, I've been dreading this for a while because I don't know how I'm supposed to verbalize any of it to that side of the family and I don't know how to deal with being expected to try to get my brother to go to the memorial they're doing next year and yeah. I'm looking forward to the London trip next week because I'm hoping that getting out into a new place will help me clear my head a little and stop this weird wallowing I've been doing the past couple days.

#personal #this is just one of those things that is like #so many things are happening to me at once #and i think this just kind of blanked me out a little #i'm in the most neutral emotional state i've ever been in #not happy not sad not angry not anything #which you know is a whole aspect of grief thing #and i'm not really sleeping #which again see above #it was a little weird of me to have this happen and immediately watch tfothou though #i can't take time off work because i'm leaving for London on saturday #so i'm just kind of existing right now and it's weird

[majesticmagics]

ohhhhhhh i get it now. working 40 hours 5 days a week actually destroys you from the inside out, huh?

#shapes.txt #i wanted to maybe do things today but i can't even do anything besides chilling and eating and watching youtube right now #i've only ever worked part time retail before #and now i'm working in a call center full time #like i'm getting trained now which is good #and now i'm getting paid above minimum wage #but like #my god #i have no free time now #the free time that i technically have is spent recovering from work or thinking about work #and it's going to continue like this #i'm not going to last #i don't think that i can physically handle working full time #ok ok ok ok ok plan: i suffer through hell and get lotsa money #but not for too long #and then once i'm no longer working here #i'll slowly try and find a nice trade job or apprenticeship #idk though!!!!! #i've enjoyed it so far it's just now on the weekend that i'm like ''ugh'' #i think it's because we (the new starters) got an actual taste for it on friday with all the accreditation stuff

Never have I been more grateful that time travel exists in the X-Men universe.

#marvel #x-men 97 #spoilers #...don't read my tags XD #most of the spoilers will be down here #i liked the x-men cartoon since i was a kid in the 90s #but i can't lie i mostly watched it for specific characters #if an episode didn't have any of those characters involved the chances of me enjoying it went down significantly #wasn't universal but a pretty darn good bet you know? #they gave me morph back for which i am grateful #and rogue has been my Best Girl TM for decades #but i swear i would be developing a sudden loss of interest after the latest episode if not for the whole #'this sort of thing almost never sticks in comics' and we literally saw cable right before crap hit the fan #now maybe it won't be time travel #maybe there's some other comic book story that could be used here that i'm unfamiliar with #(i know very little in regards to x-men comics - my heart resides with the batfam) #but either way being Old and Jaded is seriously working in my favor right now so i'll take it XD #(the end totally got me though like uuuuuuuuuuugh noooooooooo whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy *cries*)

CORRECT THANK YOU FOR SHARING

#submission #I actually have seen this meme because someone sent it to my supervisor at some point and she showed it to all of us ajdbkajs #working with a bunch of gay autistic math nerds fucking rules lmfao y'all have no idea #one of my bosses is super into sci fi and is also a math teacher and puts star trek and firefly and buffy and hitchhikers guide etc etc #references in EVERYTHING he makes. I took a math class from him once and all of the test questions were about some fuckin show #whenever he runs meetings he asks us questions based on star trek usually. recently in a meeting he asked us to choose the best captain #I'm one of only like 3 people who watches all of this shit so I looove going to meetings when he runs them #bc he'll ask some fuckin question like who's the best star trek captain. and the 3 of us who knows what's going on will just start arguing #while everyone else looks around like what the fuck is going on right now (this one always gets the newbies) #my ALL TIME favorite Jake moment tho was when I was there one night and there were no students so we were all just hanging out #and Jake walks out of his office and he looks kind of annoyed. and he's a big dude like super tall and broad and loud as hell #so I can hear him like mumbling shit all annoyed and I'm like hey Jake what's up? you doin ok? #and he sighed and was like no. the schools internet filter started blocking my FAVORITE board game forum #and now when I have a thought I can't just look it up to see if anyone's said anything about it. and that's like ALL I do. it's so annoying #and I was like Jake maybe that's why they blocked it akddjkansbdjsdbebs #god I love that dude. and this barely mentions my other supervisor who is autistic and pansexual and married to a woman #and both of them foster several kids. Jake has like 10 fuckin kids or smth bc he was fostering a couple of kids and then he got married #and she already had children and then they had a baby together. idk he's got like a whole baseball team they're very cute

The gay pirates have taken over my brain. Like, I was already super excited for season two before today, but ever since the trailer came out, I'm completely incapable of thinking about anything else.

So now I'm stuck listening to because the night and rotating the babygirls in my head like a microwave

#i wanted to write tonight #but the part I'm at in the fic im working on right now is not even close to the mood im in now 😅 #what can you do #anyway i already watched two episodes for my rewatch of the first season so i feel like i should call it for the night #but i can't make my brain focus on anything else #never underestimate the power of gay pirates #the absolute brainworms #im just rambling now because i don't know what to do #i should just read fanfic or something #i need to make an amv for because the night sometime #i just heard it for the first time in the trailer and im OBSESSED #anyway I'll actually post this and stop dumping my stream of consciousness into the tags 😅 #our flag means death #ofmd #ofmd season 2

keep thinking about a particular yweyn wip I got sitting in my files because I did Harvest Temple earlier with her and like. was top 3 dps, red sex restrung was playing and was the only one left alive at the end so, perhaps she is the shit

#yweyn @ ryan who more often than not dies at the last phase: you're like a baby watch this #also sorry at the pug commander for barking out orders when I was just some rando. I'm used to leading this for my guild 🚶‍♂️ #but also it's their fault for taking a bunch of newbies with us without explaining anything to them #ANYWAYS POINT IS I CAN'T CLEAN THAT WIP UP RIGHT NOW BECAUSE I NEED TO WORK
