bman and jason have a seriously strained relationship as is, and our braindead coma patients at DC have no interest in fixing it because Drama Sells, so what do you think would genuinely help these two get back to something real?

Ooh, great question, Anon! Thank you :)

So, right if the bat (pun intended) we know that Bruce and Jason don’t get along well, specifically because of their dissimilar morals.

In DC comics, Bruce only sees in a black or white, this or that way of thinking. It’s either ‘continue to fight crime and leave the rest to the justice system’ OR ‘focus on controlling crime and killing criminals to protect others’. Jason on the other hand sees both of these as opposing morals, and he also recognizes that there is a middle ground which is ‘get rid of the absolute worst of them’. Because Jason understands Bruce, he knows that nothing will make Bruce take a life or do things differently (I mean, his own death didn’t make a difference to Bruce’s morals), but Jason also believes that Bruce doesn’t have to change who he is, he just needs to accept that Jason’s methods are right for Gotham. Ultimately Bruce killing Joker for Jason would have helped their relationship, because Jason would have known that he was loved and his life was worth more than the clown’s. And in UTRH Jason says “I’m not talking about cobblepot or riddler or Dent… I’m talking about him, just him” Bare with me, I know that Jason says this regarding Bruce killing Joker for a different reason being -Joker’s crime was a lot more personal. However I still feel like regardless if Joker hadn’t killed Jason, Jason would still feel the same way about Joker- meaning he’d still think Joker deserves to die because of the sheer brutality and sadism and absolute power the clown has on Gotham & it’s people. (More than any other Gotham city rogues!)

So back to the point, if Bruce acknowledged (like Jason does!) the middle ground of killing the worst of the worst, then that would bring the two closer together.

Listen, I get that Bruce killing would forever change ‘The Batman’, but Bruce doesn’t have to kill people to accept the ideology because he knows Jason is right, he knows crime is down because of Jason. But NO!, DC has to make him beat the shit out of his son instead of having a fucking conversation.

Which brings me to this point. For some reason DC seems to think that these two have to fight no matter what. If they went to have soup with Alfred they’d still end up punching each other for whatever reason. It’s ridiculous. Is this what they think readers want? I completely agree with you, Anon. Drama sells, unfortunately.

The next point is that Bruce needs to actually have faith in his son because guess what?, Jason needs his father’s support to do good. Actual good. Bruce second guessing Jason and not trusting him with missions is exactly what gets Jason frustrated, causing him to feel inferior, worthless, or unlovable in Bruce’s eyes. From a psychological perspective, if Bruce trusted Jason and told him he trusted him, Jason would feel so much better about himself and their relationship. It’s so much better for a child to prove their parents are right for trusting them (motivating them positively) than having a child strive to prove their parents wrong (motivating them negatively). Bruce needs to stop being so condescending and Jason will finally feel heard. Bruce treats him like a child which is just so wrong and demeaning.

Last point is that Bruce needs to spend more time with Jason as Bruce and not as Batman. Sometimes Jason needs his father and that’s okay. It’s up to Bruce to be there for him. Whether Jason is an adult or not, he should be able to feel like he can call or visit or ask for help from Bruce without Bruce getting angry or telling him he’s off the mission.

At this point DC just needs to get the whole family seeing some therapists.

In conclusion, things that would help mend Bruce and Jason’s relationship:

Finding a common middle ground among their morals

Bruce should not beat his sons regardless if they are ‘criminals’ in his eyes or not

Bruce killing the Joker (this would bring Jason closer to Bruce, but it does cause some changes in Bruce’s character).

COMMUNICATION (this is the first step in therapy probably)

Having them be partners and act like partners. Bruce needs to get off his high horse and stop being so condescending to Jason.

Similar to the above-Bruce needs to trust Jason and make sure Jason knows Bruce trusts him.

Spend more time outside of crime fighting. Idk go watch a baseball game or go fishing. Have some family dinners and talk about the times when things were easy and fun and silly, before everything went to shit. Jason deserves his dad and Bruce deserves his son.

Therapy (The whole family would benefit).

I’ve reached the point in my Fairy Tail rewatch where it’s further along than tfd ever got, which means shit keeps happening that makes me go “fucking WHAT”

#mobbtalks #I’ll be real tfd embedded in my brain more solidly than the actual plot did. because tfd is my baby #specifically I’m on the oracion seis arc which I mostly remember for trying to puzzle around how to like. actually tackle it in tfd #it was next up on the chopping block. when I hit the wall I was like. I’d say 3-4 chapters away from it #so the plot beats I remember -the seis themselves #- the guild alliance and (most) of who’s participating in that #- big weird land thing goes walkabout and they have to destroy all its legs at once #things I did not remember but that have BLASTED me. - Ichiya. #and I. I fucking hate to say it. bc I hated ichiya the first go round but I think he might genuinely be funnier in the sub? god. god. #maybe it’s also because every time I have an episode going I’m also doing a few other things #- the monkey guys. genuinely thought they were a filler side plot didn’t expect them to come back #- Erigor comes back???? I uh. I killed him off in tfd bc I forgot that. haha. whoops. #- fucking *JELLAL* which is something I am. quite frankly. *shocked* I forgot #this guy is at the centre of like. every goddamn arc <- exaggeration #things I half remember which have yet to be confirmed one of which is kind of alarming #- there was a guy who was real obsessed with potatoes? #- I’m pretty sure this brain guy was uh. white. he’s black. he also has a line about switching ‘dark’ and ‘light’. the implications of this #concern me.

used my last syringe to do a t shot for the first time in two months and it went completely fine 😐 this is what anxiety and adhd have been doing to me

#i have been putting it off bc one i don’t know how to get more syringes #and so i was sort of saving it for a night like tonight #but also that’s a stupid reason bc if i could get the executive function figuring out how to request more syringes is not that hard #and also bc my last few went so bad that it psyched me out of using injections #i still want to switch to gel but like #probably if i had been on t regularly during some of my worst months thus far i’d be happier #ted talks

why can’t I just get the spoilers for my life like I wanna know if a career change will actually be better or will I just be even more stressed 😭

#i currently teach 5th grade #and I’m in a VERY rough school #like high turn over high trauma population extremely low income etc #the stories I have in the two years I’ve been teaching jesus christ #so my rose colored glasses are OFF #and idk if it’ll be better and fulfilling if I go to another school even just a transfer in the district #cause I’d still have similar problems and the pay would still be absolutely shit #then the alternative I’ve been looking at is PA school #I’m a constant patient it feels like since I’ve got crohns and I’ve done a year of nursing school before switching to education #but now I’m like maybe I should’ve stayed in medicine 🤧 #cause it’s my fav science and I like learning about it and I looooove the pas that I work with but it’s also a lot of work to get there #so where is the magic genie who is going to tell me whether I should try to find my way as a teacher or see if being a pa is a better fit #cause ya girl is stuck 😩 #ok I’m done rambling #elizabeth rambles

The urge to make a Webtoon/webcomic again

#idk I miss working on art projects #every now and then I want to make the webtoon version of TToNF again #but I’m so wishy washy and I wish (lol) I wasn’t #and also doing a THIRD switch on TToNF’s medium would piss people off 💀💀 #but I do have stories other than TToNF I’d like to make #chaos chats

which tda book is your favorite?

Lord of Shadows slightly edges out Lady Midnight although they’re really close since I love both so much… but LoS has the overall most impactful arcs and storylines to me the section in the Unseelie Court is probably my favorite part of the series, and the ending packs a big emotional punch to say the least. It might be my favorite tsc book period actually I really love LoS. Also like I just said in the previous ask I tend to be a middle book(s) or middle seasons girlie it’s just who I am. I think this book struck a neat balance between being character driven and plot driven that was extremely effective although to be clear it would probably also be my favorite if it was just character centric filler angst about Emma&Jules because that’s who I am… but I’m still glad it was more than that! LM is also wonderful in a way that few first books in fantasy series are to me usually there’s a slow burn for me to be really invested but not here, and the whole murder cult mystery with body horror (had forgotten about the missing hands that made it even better) + forbidden romance + familial dynamics themes combo and vibe really works for me. Qoaad is my least favorite of the three but I still really like it, and I definitely thought far better of it on reread compared to when I first read it since back then I had been anticipating it so hard and theorizing etc. and had very sky high expectations (especially with Clockwork Princess being a rare perfect finale to me and with how much I loved the first two tda books I hoped for Qoaad to accomplish the same thing..) on reread I could evaluate it more for what it is and I came to the conclusion that about 80% of the actual content of the book I am a fan of, it’s just that the pacing of the book is insane. Genuinely if that book was split into two books and they were paced normally I’d have loved them as much as the first two I think! Genuinely I think cc has gotten too attached to trilogies as the sole structure for her work and it’s a big part of why the receptions for her last two finales have been what they are … (well I’m sure there are multiple factors at play but I’m confident that’s one of them) also maybe even effected tmi part 2 because I remember cofa being pretty filler and the plot there feeling like it could be resolved in a duology? I love almost every individual storyline in that book so if you asked me which ones I would snipe for the third book to be paced correctly I’d be hard pressed to get rid of things but if you split it into two books and grounded them each tonally to feel distinct and just gave us some breathing room I think you could stick the landing! But since I like almost every individual element of the book it’s an enjoyable reread when you already know where the story ends up and the best parts of it really work for me / get a level of emotionality from me no tlh or tmi book does so it still ranks high (like #6ish since I like all the tid books more as well as first two tda) for me, I slander her but she’s my bestie <3.

#s speaks #myhouseofivyandstone #so to answer your question Lord of Shadows lol #tda #tsc #asks #I think it’s the same deal with Chain of Thorns objectively btw the issues are more about pacing than content. But then it was the opposite #for me with that book since I wasn’t actively theorizing or anything so I don’t think I went into it with much expectation and I liked it #more than most of the fandom. But I’m curious if I were to reread those books back to back if it would be the opposite and I’d be more #negative on a reread? tabeling that thought for the future #the role hype and expectations have in a reading experience. not to be underestimated #the best part of qoaad is definitely what it has to say about grief which I can also appreciate more now because #sadly my loved experience over the years since I first read the book mean that those resonate more with me now. Especially these methods fo #exploring it in a paranormal/fantasy media #but it is objectively something that makes it an odd finale because there’s a lot of other things at play. Which is why I think there shoul #have been another bigger book to delve into those themes and Thule Livvy and switch-off Jules and everything. And then another book about #the main political storyline and parabatai curse (and there would be overlap ofc but as main areas of focus) #I wonder if that might have been why there’s such a lack of willingness to give Any time to characters grief in ChoTh. Like she went too #hard in the other direction #the dark artifices

Here’s the area before I gardened it this week! I couldn’t go in this week because I’ve been feeling really rough, I have this awful red itch all over and I’ve been feeling so tired :(

And here’s the poison ivy I weeded

#i went to the doctors because I was so confused what happened #he winced when I showed him how much there was lol #I couldn’t do anything for the past few days because I get so tired and it’s hard to focus #at a certain point itch feels like pain #it’s covering most of my legs (i garden in shorts) #and a lot of my arms (carrying loads of weeds into the woods) #and my stomach (surrounding a bug bite I must have scratched which is a special brand of irony) #but I wear gloves so my hands are fine at least :’) #I was really worried I was having an allergic reaction to a medicine I’ve been on for a few months #rash is a side effect and would mean I’d have to go off for a bit to switch to a different one………….. #not music #rb

among us lifesteal au (explodes)

idk if i’ll do anything with this but i really like the idea of it 👍 here’s what i have atm

spoke: imposter (idk if he’d have a specific role yet)

mapicc: imposter & linked with ro

ro: crewmate & linked with mapicc

leo: the executioner

ash: the glitch

cube: the engineer

zam: the detective

clown: the jackal (no sidekick)

jaron: the jester

bacon: the swapper

planet: the shifter (maybe)

rek: crewmate with flash modifier

mid: altruist

clutch: crewmate with button barry modifier

red: crewmate (not sure if he’d have any modifiers)

#van speaks #i really like the thought process for a lot of these #like mapicc & ro have the lovers role (although im hesitant to call it that since i don’t want ppl taking it the wrong way) #but if you’re unfamiliar w modded among us basically they’re linked & if one dies they both die at the same time #so nothing romantic 👍 #leo’s the executioner and his target would be red (s3 ref woghh) #<- also why i made mid altruist; leo gets killed by one of the imposters and mid finds his body & revives him only for leo to go after red #which isn’t exactly what happened in s3 but the imposters r the bad guys yknow #detective zam bc ofc yayyy #clown’s the jackal which is a neutral role but works by themselves #and can kill anyone #u can’t tell me that jaron wouldn’t love being the jester #he’s such a little shit /aff please get this guy in a modded among us lobby and get him to be jester #i think bacon would fit swapper well since he’d want to switch people’s votes around either bc he thinks they’re wrong or j to be silly #rek w the flash modifier helps him escape situations faster #i feel like clutch would try to abuse the shit out of button barry to the point everyone gets pissed and votes him off #red would have to be a crewmate since he’s leo’s target but idk if he’d have a modifier #if anyone has any suggestions 4 this i’d love 2 hear them <3 #or if there’s any questions abt the roles i feel like i know them decently well <- has watched too much among us

Newer trend I’ve noticed as of late is the way people have flipped the Soukoku dynamic where before Chuuya was written/imagined as a pretty lil damsel who’s stupid and brawny and always needing Dazai to save him it’s become Dazai is weak and overly feminine…and that frustrates me!!! How did y’all get here 😭

#someone on Twitter brought up his demon prodigy moniker and for a second I was like? #and I just couldn’t believe I’d forgotten that and that in fandom no one addresses his dark side anymore??? #like you all lean too far into his really loud and whiny persona #idkkkkk #it bothers me tjo #dazai being considered ‘weaker’ isn’t necessarily new on its own but I don’t think it was ever quite so bad #or maybe it was just lack of feminizing that made it seem not as bad? #because now there’s this explicable tie between the two (false if you ask me) idea about him #I don’t think dazai CANT be feminine but I also think people just switching who’s the ‘girl’ of the dynamic isn’t as progressive as y’all #want to claim it is #I personally don’t care what people do with these characters #I DO care when they wanna play it off like it’s somehow more morally correct

genuinely keep forgetting patches lead up to a new expac and every day i put off starting ew on lyre to get caught up. a heem

#i guess idk who ill want to do 7.0 on yet #depends on where final patch will leave off #atm it’s more relevant to prem’s lore #BUT he’s been my msq main for a long time and i’d like to switch it up just for the sake of it maybe idk

#okay but on that note tho i didn’t know that was a trigger for me #like charlie is one of the worst stalker characters from anything ever but he’s also my fav in always sunny #i think it’s just bc i have different ways to mentally prepare for different things #which is why i still click ‘read’ for posts i’ve blacklisted #sometimes a little heads up is all it takes! #yeah idk that rly just took me off guard in the worst way possible bc you don’t expect that in a kid’s show #like ‘clingy gf’ is a common trope and i did know abt it going in #but i think it was just hal’s reactions and the dismissive tone of it that made me switch gears #idk how to explain it was like watching a car crash happen in slow motion (hey i get that now!) #this was a weird lesson to learn in real time but at least i know now #and now i Can mentally prepare moving forward #if i had a nickel for weird trauma lessons directly involving hal i’d have 2 nickels #and boy oh boy i sure do hope it stops at 10¢ #danbles #cw stalking
