#between adults

[iwaasfairy]

You’re right about how people should mind their own business. I would like to add that sometimes it is necessary to inject into a relationship, especially toxic relationships. Because some ends in murder, or trauma, or a baby. Plus a teen ends up with a high school teacher is nasty (that’s the only part I disagree with you/unless if the teacher is in their 20s, but it’s weird) If two adults are happy in a relationship, then people should let them be.

Ok, I don't know why people try to read between the lines of things I said, even tho I know you're just commenting on the post- I'm not talking about relationships where a crime is being committed. I'm not talking about abusive relationships. I'm not talking about minors with adults. I'm not talking about people who are being forced, or being assaulted, or where a crime is taking place. I specified that in the post.

Two consenting adults. Two consenting adults making a choice to be together, and existing online. That's what I'm talking about.

The teacher thing I was referring to was a story of a hs gym coach in his early twenties who never had contact with his future wife in school. He happened to meet her after she was already out of high school. No grooming happened. No illegal shit. Just a consenting adult and a consenting adult, but people felt the need to start calling them out for being happily married years after the fact, when they weren't even so much as talking about their relationship. They're both in their thirties now. They were just a couple existing online.

And like I said, you're allowed to think it's weird. I also think it's a little weird if someone in their mid twenties wants to date a 19yo. But that's exactly the thing I was saying, ok. People infantilize young women, and then deny they're doing it.

You want to tell me a 21yo is old enough to vote, work, drink, drive, fuck whoever they want, go into sex work, have a baby, adopt a child, get their entire body covered in tattoos, get tossed into big adult jail, buy a whole house and get criPPLING debt

but not to date another consenting adult?

Really. Really? And you don't think that's sort of insulting to the young woman in question? All that, but you think it's ok to harass her because she's dating a 29 year old? If you think that's a little silly, then you agree with the point I was making.

And if you genuinely think "yea that's how it should be", then I just don't. agree with you. People only do this to young women. They only do this to women, not to men. It's degrading and gross and anti-woman.

#I'm not a moron; i understand why people warn people #if their relationship is truly actively harmful #if someone was 16 and was groomed into being with a 25yo #i never said anything about that tho;; of course people are allowed to warn a cHILD from being with a predator #the post specifically states many times: legal consenting relationships #between adults #aren't your drama. they just arent #if you genuinely constantly feel the need to comment on other people's relationships #even when they aren't asking your opinion #if no abuse is taking place; if no crime is being committed; if there's no indication of future abuse #you're just out of line #and i hate the fucking implication that young women 20 and up #just don't fucking know what theyre doing n that we're stupid #that we can't possibly decide for ourselves to be with older men #not saying you do that in particular- but ive seen it so much now #it just gets so old #honey mail

My roommates keep stealing my tools because they don't have any, so I'm curious

#random rose rambles #popular post #polls #tool box #tool set #adulting #it's just so weird to me #that my engineering roommates have ZERO tools between them #they keep stealing my stuff. which is fine #most of the stuff is for the good of the house. and i'm not using it 24/7 anyways #but one specifically was like 'why don't you have xyz? everyone should have that' #and I was like 'bro you don't have anything. what do you MEAN' #like I got a tool bag in high school #it's not the highest quality stuff but it all works

To prove to Jason that Bruce replaced him, Talia hacks a CCTV livefeed of Batman with his new Robin. But she mildly fucked up.

Because it's also got audio, and it's very clearly catching Bruce telling the new Robin that he doesn't need a Robin, and that the kid needs to go the fuck home.

It catches the new Robin do something completely unhinged in response to that, along the lines of solving a case right then and there to prove a point, and then jumping through a window into a gunfight before Bruce has even processed what he said.

"I mean," Jason starts tentatively, looking very Concerned, "At least that's one way to make sure the kid doesn't get himself killed, if he's got a minder."

The plan backfires, spectacularly.

Now Jason is concerned about this new Robin, and keeps filling Damian's head with ideas.

Ideas like Damian needs to force Drake to go to bed, Damian should help Jason make sure Drake eats more, Damian should help Batman hide trackers on Drake, Damian should get an adult if it looks like Drake is about to do something stupid.

Basically, instead of clearing the path for Damian to take the mantle of Robin, Damian is instead being taught to care for Drake like one would a domesticated wild animal.

#dcau #batman #red robin #robin #damian wayne #tim drake #jason todd #talia al ghul #damian comes into the picture with tranqs aimed at tim instead of katana #their relationship is still very antagonistic #but for wildly different reasons now #jason's attack on titans tower was more along the lines of #showing up at the tower with guns loaded with tranqs #sure he broke both of Tim's legs #but it was out of concern #the kid needs to take a vacation while the adults talk #and by talk jason means force bruce to choose between joker and jason #bruce chooses joker #doesn't get to throw the batarang at jason because tim chose that moment to come on the comms #and starts shouting in bruce's ear to give the comm to red hood #bruce flinches and misthrows the batarang #cuts off the jokers ear instead #jason laughs so hard he drops the joker #it's part hysterical laughter and part actual laughter #bruce is trying to give first aid and shouting at jason to STOP LAUGHING #crackfic #crackprompt

dp x dc prompt #36

i’ve seen a lot of prompts about de-aged danny running around gotham from the GIW, and one of the bats find him and practically adopt him on the spot.

what i want to see is a very self sufficient four year old danny that has already been successfully escaping for a while with just some minor help from gotham, and is only found because he’s doing something stupid while running away from someone.

i want danny getting chased by the GIW through the city, and the bats only notice when he tarzan swings by them with laxer fire chasing him.

#dp x dc #danny phantom #danny fenton #dc x dp #crossover #dc universe #dp x dc crossover #writing prompt #writing #batpham #de aged danny #he’s not completely helpless #when i was a child i was already climbing the roof and jumping between mine and the neighbors house #a super powered child? #completely helpless without an adult? #please #he still has most of his memories in most cases too #can’t tell me child!danny wouldn’t kick an adult in their knees and start sprinting at the first hint of trouble #forget getting him to trust you #the first step is catching him #funny

More Batfam thoughts

You know I agree with the takes about Tim "I have parentified to a Insane Degree" Drake would look at most adults' authority over him including Bruce's with scoff and dismissal. Expect: Dick Grayson. And maybe Jason Todd. But not Batman or Bruce. Not his parents. Not Alfred. Not police or military. Not the president (Especially if it is Luthor). Not a single member of the Justice League even Wonder Woman. Tim will respect them all as people (mostly), as experts in their field and sometimes as missions leads. Dick Grayson on the other hand has the special place of being basically the only adult person that Tim Drake will respect as an authority. (and I also want to be clear Dick Grayson not necessarily Nightwing and Tim Drake not Red Robin as that is a different conversation) Which imagine how horrifying for people to realize that. Like image if will gotham rouges and Titans realizing that Tim Drake may technically be Batman's Robin III, but that is Dick Grayson/Nightwing's kid. The Gotham rouges/goons like Batman already on thin ice for the no kill thing, but most can rationalize it as grief, but Nightwing? First Robin? They trust but they don't forget that Robin is the reason they know there are worse and more horrifying things to experience then death. Also sure pissing Batman off is bad, but no one wants Nightwing hunting them down. Like no one was genuinely shocked about the Joker brief meeting with Hades. and the Titan or League realizing that Dick basically is the sole person standing in the way of Tim being the Best Villain in the world.

#riz do be speaking #dick grayson #tim drake #tim drake is a menace #tim drake is dick grayson's biggest fan #Tim and Dick both have that separation between mask and person #Tim breaks out in hives when anyone else tries to have an authority over him as an adult to child #unhinged dick grayson #unhinged tim drake

i love it when fandom infantilizes characters to the point of denying them their own agency.

"if people in cang qiong had treated shen jiu differently-" do you have any evidence that they mistreated him? or is it too hard a pill to swallow that shen jiu was the one who decided to close himself off and be an asshole. that cang qiong treated him just fine, that his martial siblings tolerated him to the point that even when he was suspected of murder nothing was done to him?

who forced shen jiu to abuse luo binghe? to abuse other disciples? those were his decisions, that was him acting in a position of power.

the moral of the story is not "shen jiu was misunderstood :(" the moral is: the person who was abused can also become an abuser. the one who suffers violence can be violent towards others. you, despite what you've gone through, have the capacity for kindness and cruelty. so be wise on how you decide to act, because your pain doesn't justify hurting others, and your actions will have consequences.

you have agency, you have whatever amount of power you have over your own life and the things you do have and impact in the lives of those around you and yourself. so maybe try being at the very least neutral to the world and yourself, if you can't be kind.

but no, shen jiu's mentality was "since I suffered, they deserve to suffer too". and by taking that path he perpetuated the cycle of abuse.

bingge is the same, because he could have stopped at taking revenge on shen jiu, but he decided to involve the whole sect and the rest of the world, no matter who was innocent. he was unnecessarily cruel, but so was his master.

both shen jiu and bingge had the capacity for some form of "niceness" (in the way they treated women), so it wasn't as if they'd never known some form of love. at some point in their lives, they stopped being abused children and became abusive adults.

and that's an expression of human behaviour that we have to accept as possible. the svsss narrative invites us to examine ourselves in this light, to witness our capacity for both love and hate, to realize that even in the most adverse of circumstances, there's always a small sliver of agency over how we feel and how we act. that, despite the things that defines us from birth through childhood, our decisions also define what we'll become in the future.

#svsss #svsss meta #shen jiu #this is something that's also very common irt how some people view anakin skywalker #they want to blame everything on the jedi when the narrative makes it clear that it was his own decisions and actions that #pushed him to the dark side #there are a lot of parallels between anakin and sj and bingge in this regard #i think there's a generation of people who were too sheltered and infantilized through a big portion of their lives and that had #very little power over their life through childhood and teenage years #and have not learned to be emotionally independent even after becoming legal adults #and end up projecting this kind of thinking in fiction #idk it's just a theory

sudden yearning for time travelling teen jiang fengmian lands at lotus pier fic that winds up being about a perfectly nice kid having a varying series of "oh no. i don't like that. that's a lot" reactions.

#i think in order for this to be satisfying i have to give grace and interiority to teenmian #i'm picturing an older teen like 18ish? maybe even early 20s? #big crush on csr he's already pretty sure isn't going to work out #but at least he'll always have wei-xiong #anyway this is my ploy to give jfm a chance at an ugly crying meltdown #he's trying so hard to be even keeled and like #maybe take this as an evil vision designed to teach him something #but somewhere in between my crush stole my man and then they died #my whole sect burned #my grown ass son who is older than me making the vibe sooooo weird #and my grandson! child of my dead???? daughter?????? #is just like yeah he never talks about you. no never never #and then wwx blows into town and idk somehow they all end up at dinner together and jfm politely calls lqr a punk ass bitch in front of lwj #because what???? context clues suggest lqr has the fucking nerve to not like wei xiong's baby after All That #only for adult son with the weird vibes #to imply only filial piety is keeping him from naming the real #punk ass bitch #anyway this ends with jfm crying because clearly he marries yuanyuan and she HATES HIM and then his own son ALSO HATES HIM #and would rather stupid Lan-er-gongzi #be his dad. #if you like lqr so much why don't you just join the lan sect then????? #and that's how jc learns he didn't get it all from his mama #jc didn't mean it he was stressed! this isn't his dad it's an a-ling sized kid. but it's still stressful
