Time for everyone’s favorite game show, Are The ADHD Drugs Still Working Or Am I Just Especially Depressed?, which may or may not feature the concluding sudden death showdown, Will Your Doctor Listen This Time Or Just Suggest Taking Vitamin D?

#my body is still but my insides feel like they’re thrumming with energy that has nowhere to go #I’m afraid to move in case the thought I’m trying to capture flits off like a butterfly #I’m also afraid to move because there’s this whole hernia situation #I’m also out here in the shadow of the valley that is ‘surgeon won’t schedule surgery until BMI is reduced’ #which puts me in almost a permanent state of waiting mode #because it’s not that I’m incapable of following a low calorie eating plan #in fact I’m actually kind of great at it which is the horrible part #because all the eating disorder goblins just start acting up like ‘yasssss it’s our time again’ #and like no it isn’t you little shits #we’re done with that shit fr #but because of the adhd it does require logging and vigilance so i don’t eat something and forget #and also it’s not possible to get a good grade in Diet Culture but oh boy #don’t tell my brain that #it wants to put an apple on that motherfucker’s exam table #FUCK #you ever overcome something and then have the medical establishment want you to have it again? #which is why eating disorders are adjacent to our society’s conception of addiction #except no doctor is going to prescribe drinking to excess or smoking or doing whatever drugs #but they WILL prescribe anorexia #fuck i hate this i hate it i hate it i hate it

Prompt:

It’s not that Jason forgot, per se.

But between smuggling a toddler out of the League of Assassins, trekking halfway across the world, and finding a suitable hiding place that’s also child friendly… well, it kind of slipped his mind that he’s supposed to be… dead.

Something that comes back to bite him in the ass when he takes Dami out for some ice cream and just so happens to run into non other than Brucie-fucking-Wayne

Prompt 308

Honestly, Damian is so disappointed in his father right now. And his so-called siblings. The friends allies he had made over the years and he had been swapping multiple times, and still they hadn’t realized. Danyal was as pale as a corpse, closer to Drake for Pit’s sake! Jordan had red eyes! Elena was a girl! Respawn had white hair! Surely someone noticed- thank fuck, hello Todd, no he’s not on patrol, listen, listen, he needs you to know that Father? Blind. An idiot! The others more so! Yes yes, they’ve been doing their single-person trick, but surely someone should have caught on yes? And they haven’t- Oh? What a wonderful idea Akhi, he shall inform the others of this idea, the Lazarus waters do make dna testing quite hard to do. 

#DCxDP #DPxDC #Fake Quintuplets Au #Prompts #Danny Ellie & Dan all came through the Pits after [Bad Thing Happens] & were Damian’s sparring buddies #They might have broken Respawn out too #Why yes they’re all physically 10 years old #Let Jason & Damian be Brothers #Jason hasn’t even revealed himself and is already down to cause problems (he was finishing highschool & trainin) #Talia isn’t a good mom as she’s in a literal cult but she’s trying her best #Damian: Ah yes my four siblings who are my siblings #They’re going to be such little shits about it too #”We have been swapping out for Years and you never noticed how blind” #Pointing at Red Hood: Akhi knew who each of us were immediately #Talia lets the five of them pull this trick so often & actively encourages it because it’s like training for both them & others #They claim Respawn got white hair from Talia's side- which might actually be true I mean Dusan naturally has it too so #Damian calls Jason Akh when he wants to butter him up & Jason knows it

Promises

He should know better. 

Wolfwood has seen Vash make promises, or hear about the ones he has made in the past. He has also seen the end of each one and how every single time the outcome is less than what was promised. 

Vash likes to say embellished words, with a soft and determined voice that lures you into his hopes and dreams, it almost feels like a spell, as if he was calling for you to come closer and believe him. But Wolfwood knows better.

He believes in him, but Vash is much closer to being an idealistic dreamer than a realistic person like he is. He might not be aware of it, but his beautiful promises of a better future give people hope, a hope that is usually embraced with things like disappointment and abandonment. 

He doesn’t think that Vash does it with the intent of looking for any of those things. Far from it, he might even do the impossible in order to accomplish said promises, but life is too short and humans are too mortal for his wishes, so in the end, most of Vash’s promises end up being empty or they come to haunt him as a reminder of his failed vows. He admires the man, for his perseverance and idealism, but he also hates the man, for his stubbornness and lies. 

Wolfwood knows all of this perfectly to a tee. And yet, he has also found himself being drawn to his world. Because he also dreams of it.

A world in where his always present calls for love and peace exist, a world that is far more kind than what he might deserve, a world in where the kids can be happy and roam around without any worry in their heads, a world in where he can peacefully turn grey with age and his hands can shed the harsh callouses of his life. Who knows, maybe a world in where he and Vash can finally know the peace that was taken away from them, in where they can share the calmness that comes with the passage of time, indulging in every tick of the clock welcoming with open arms whatever comes their way without any fear.

It is a beautiful promise. But Wolfwood is a person that has to keep his feet on the ground, indulging in “what ifs” would only make things harder than what they had to be. He can’t have any ifs if he can’t make it through the now. And by the way he is carrying his present, he is doubtful he will even get to see a shed of that promised world that Vash tries to drag him into. So why mourn something he doesn’t even have, or will ever have for that matter.

He hates the way Vash seems to promise things so easily. His tongue silky and pliant, slipping divine words one after the other, promises way too big for what that barren world can actually fit. 

But when Vash talks to him in that holy voice of his, when he hears him say “It’s okay, everything will be alright, I promise” so gently right on his ear, while he holds his face so tenderly making him focus on him and nothing else, he wants to believe him.

He has seen the end of his promises. He knows how impossible they are. But for once, he wants to believe it too. Believe in that loving world that will cradle them both until they fall asleep, listening to the soft sound of the wind laughing while the moons smile upon them. 

So he allows himself to indulge in the warmth of his palms, leaning into the comfort of his existence, feeling the soft air of Vash’s breaths against his skin while their foreheads meet in a touch that feels like a hot brand that will melt him.

For an instant, he allows himself to be selfish and believe that maybe, that is how living in that world Vash so desperately fights for would be. Soft and warm, making him feel safe in the hollow of Vash’s hands where the world seems to fit so well. A world where the blue sky is a blanket that covers the love and care that is nestled in it like the one in Vash’s eyes. He wants to see that world.

For now, he will selfishly think that the world that fits in Vash’s hands is right there in where he is holding him, where his blue eyes are drowning in the light of the sunset dripping with love and care while looking at him, that the gentle touch of Vash’s thumb wiping his tears is the same as the kiss of that laughing wind in that distant future, where the smile of his eyes overcomes the smile of the moons.

He should know better. But he loves the thought of that world. And he hopes that Vash will get to see that world, because that gentle sight is more fitting for someone like him than the one of his violent world.

He promises to himself that he will do what it takes for that day to be possible. Even if the end of that promise will be empty for Nicholas, he knows it will be a full one for Vash. So it really isn’t that empty for him after all.

He hates his lies, and he hates how true they sound, but Vash’s embellished words are far sweeter than his bitter thoughts so they feel better on his insides, almost like a balm that cares for the wounds of his throbbing, painful reality.

He should know better.

But aren’t humans weak at the promise of love?

#yeah….mm…mhm yeah #my thoughts were going crazy with this one. because WW crying is something that has me week on the knees #WEAK FFS #also the thought of him becoming bare and emotional at the hands of Vash makes me want to jump around until I pass out #think of it. he is afraid of him in a way. but he trusts him so deeply too it’s such a contrasting and little contradictory thing #more like. denial after denial but yk what I mean. because that’s the whole post #also as a fun fact. while on the making of this thing the line of “it’s okay. everything will be alright. I promise #it’s meant to be said by Vash to WW #but also I did it considering that a)Vash is saying it to himself as well and b)it’s something WW wants to say to Vash as well #they are both incredibly pained men and they know it but don’t adress it. so verbally saying such words to each other issssUUUEHWHAGAH #ah yes. the intimacy of being emotionally vulnerable with the person who you would trust your life to but never openly say shit to eachother #isn’t that such an amazing flavor? I won’t lie to you it’s one of my favorites #trigun #vashwood #vash the stampede #nicholas d wolfwood #trigun stampede #trigun fanart #wolfwood #nicholas trigun #nicholas the punisher #lenssi writes #lenssi draws #trigun 2023 #trigun 98 #because I did a mishmash on WW design bc this is meant to be TriStamp time skip in my mind #his eyes were originally their canon steel blue/grayish tone. but while doing the lighting the brown looked gorgeous #i couldn’t help myself so I left it that way. because there is something so beautiful abt his eyes shining like that in #the afternoon light while he becomes undone under the sunset ya feel me? #OHFUCKIALMOSTFORGOT another little detail. Vash’s right hand doesn’t have a glove and it’s on purpose btw you’re welcome

Would Sokka, Suki and Zuko form a band? And would they call it boiling rock (but Zuko still gets on stage with like... a grand piano or a violin or smth to make it more emo) ?

zuko plays the tsungi horn, sokka plays …

this thing . and suki probably plays the pipa.

sokka writes the lyrics (they just flow out of him, he has a gift!), zuko edits the lyrics to be more poetical by employing more allusions and using more symbolic language, and suki sings (she’s the only one who can sing while she plays, but also, i genuinely doubt zuko or sokka would have nice singing voices anyway).

the idea of them calling their band the boiling rock is so funny it’s like the ultimate fuck you.

and most importantly, iroh gets to see his dream of zuko playing the tsungi horn during music night finally realized.

#id in alt text #aclusterfuckofglitterbugs #asks #zuko #sokka #suki #iroh #thinking abt that scene in chapters 78-79 of the stone where baoyu’s elegy just flows out of him #and then daiyu is like ‘ok that was good but you should change this to this and do this and this and this instead’ #that’s sokka and zuko writing lyrics for their stupid little band #also of course suki has her own band back on kyoshi island #this is just a side gig for her #when suki isn’t there to sing for them aang plays the pipa and katara sings #i think she has a lovely voice #but toph doesn’t participate at all bc she’s like ‘that’s gay nerd shit for nerds’ #(she’s still scarred by the music lessons that were forced on her by her parents and she never wants to touch another instrument ever again

my least favourite thing from the watcher discourse has been people saying “WE never asked for higher quality” or “your most popular shows are where you just sit around and talk!!” - babes its likely not what THEY want to do for the rest of eternity lol. they’re allowed to want to grow as creatives and make things they are proud of?

#like i absolutely didn’t agree with their move to a paid model platform but this response isn’t the criticism u think it is #that and also the continious shit i saw about steven owning a tesla #like babes its HIS money? he’s allowed nice things and upgrades in his life lol? #AND the stuff about them making 100k from patreon with eat the rich comments #100k per month likely doesn’t cover all operating costs like you guys r thinking it does #they likely didn’t want to keep doing ad reads that interrupted their content structure and how they THEMSELVES percieved its value #as a former business major tho i def think even a little bit of market research could have stopped this lol #respectfully no one wants to pay for another thing #and the communication on it was unfortunately shit #but its not that big of a mistake that we tear em down like this #watcher #ryan bergara #shane madej #steven lim

really sucks when you realize you and a friend have just kind of grown up as two different people and don’t mesh together like you used to and like you have so much history you don’t wanna let go of but you’re absolutely miserable in the friendship

#to delete #the girl i’ve been friends with over half my life is just so insufferable now #she’s very pick me and likes to nitpick absolutely everything for no reason #absolutely DESPISES genz and tiktok for some reason #puts down everything about me and it feels targeted but she does it in ways that it comes across like it’s not #so when i call her out on picking on dumb things like kpop fans or genz i look like a psycho bitch #she very much just has to speak up on everything she dislikes instead of just letting people be happy #like it’s shit that’s not bothering anyone #she once went OFF because i’m afraid of bugs and ‘most girls’ are afraid of bugs but SHE isn’t afraid of them #and im like yes girl we pick you please stfu #it’s always just little stuff that doesn’t matter but 98% of the time has to do w something i like or don’t like #so it feels targeted and then i speak up and the rest of our friends are like ‘calm down it’s not that deep’ #idk i just like…..she feels the opposite about a lot of things i feel #and then has to act superior for being opposite of me #also being so angry over a generation of young adults/kids and an app for no reason…… #idk we just don’t go well together anymore and idk how to bring it up

#re:zero #tal reads #I have. my current super loose overarching theory is #that in some grander Fate’s Design sense this boy is SUPPOSED TO BE DEAD #I don’t know WHY but I think he’s not supposed to survive #and that whatever Satella did with the return by death thing was basically a like #glitch in the universe that forces it to keep retrying until it finds the one (1) reality where he survives #you know your dr strange ‘in how many realities do we win’ ‘just one’ type thing #my WILDLY speculative theory about this is that there was another whole timeline that Subaru has forgotten #and that the entire story is a time travel/resurrection spell to save him gone wonky as hell #where the universe knows he isn’t supposed to be alive so IT KEEPS TRYING TO KILL HIM #but every time it succeeds it has to reset and let him try again #I HAVE VERY LITTLE EVIDENCE FOR THIS. TO BE CLEAR. #like I have a LITTLE but it is 92% just me Making Shit Up that sounds vaguely possible #but. regardless. my theory is that it’s not Like This just bc subaru sucks #it’s like this bc the game is rigged both for and against him simultaneously #so he’s gonna survive but it’s gonna suck the WHOLE time

One time on twitter I saw this totally bullshit “exposure/callout” thread on Jhonen Vasquez (it was so obviously false and stupid that it got zero attention) and yeah it was just a bunch of fake accusations with no valid looking evidence or sources. But. The thing that still gets me about it is that the person who made the thread was like a huge terf, so they decided to lie about Jhonen having a transgender wife. They spent like multiple tweets out of the entire thread just trash talking his nonexistent trans wife and calling her slurs. The only person who even bothered to give the thread any attention was obviously a friend/mutual of whoever posted it, who ALSO started shit talking Jhonen’s nonexistent trans wife. It was honestly fucking hilarious. I wish I could find it again but its likely lost to time/deleted, and I also don’t want to start internet beef with the type of person chronically online enough to dig up old photos of people to support fake accusations against a cartoonist.

#tw transphobes #tw transphobia #they dug up some really old pics of Jhonen for it though #how chronically online do you have to be #also funny as hell bc Jhonen isn’t married and is very vocal abt it #like all that effort to lie about something so easily disproven #jhonen vasquez #invader zim #sorry about this random ass post I’ve been rewatching iz and it reminded me of this #oh the accusations were s/a against women in the workplace I believe?? #but little evidence. it was like. #a cropped screenshot of a live journal post the person could have easily written themselves #and then they went on to accuse him of other less serious shit #and then just started bashing his trans wife that doesn’t exist

I GOT IDEA ☝️🤠‼️‼️

I think that Wolfwood has strong hands not only in the sense of strength but also in resistance, so when he punches or smacks Vash on his prosthetic he doesn’t really feel too affected by punching the hard material and barely notices it like yeah it’s harder than flesh but it’s whatevs

In addition to that, he has found that with Vash he doesn’t measure his strength a lot so sometimes he hits him a tad too hard

So to expand my panicked “oh shit sorry” eldest sibling Wolfwood response agenda when he accidentally fucks up, sometimes he will smack Vash’s left arm playfully and Vash will hiss in pain or act a little too real (not so exaggerated) when he gets the hit, and indulges in the way WW is all oh no oh fuck sorry uh did it really hurt that bad while Vash is doubling over in pain when he’s actually pressing down a laugh

It always takes Wolfwood a little too long to realize it’s not his actual arm and when he does come to realize it, he gets embarrassed but the violent kind of embarrassed and he hits him so hard Vash always considers not doing it again

He does it again at least once a week, and Wolfwood somehow falls for it every single time and the beatings get worse than the one before that

#Vash is canonically a little shit so many times we need more of that #that one ‘my arm fell off’ from the beginning of tristamp is what prompts me to think he jokes around with his prosthetic often #also WW hits Vash really hard we’ve seen that. but when he doesn’t mean it to his primal instinct wakes up and he doesn’t know what to do #as another possibility I think that he would be like yeah idc whatever boo to you and your weak ass #but would be extra careful the next time he considers hitting him #by extra I mean slightly less hard which isn’t saying a lot #this doesn’t have a point nor is it really that deep. It’s just a silly thought #old brother Nico and young brother (for minutes most likely) Vash will behave certain ways in my head #and it’s always hilarious to me specifically #trigun #vash the stampede #nicholas d wolfwood #trigun stampede #vashwood #lenssi rambles
