#but shes no nepotism baby

🎁 ❣️🍳 for the characters of your choice?

Characters of my choice, you say? How about all four of the lits central cast?! (Thanks for playing, sorry this is slightly late!!!!)

🎁 - How do they feel about their birthday/birthdays in general?

Ooh, this is an awesome question. I imagine Avi is pretty normal about her birthday. She used to wish she would meet her biological father, and would make her mom tell her at least one story; now that she knows who he is and talks to him almost-regularly, she's a little lost.

Killian's birthdays have always been very family-centered, lots of barbecues and stuff. He gets especially homesick around that time, and makes every effort possible to make it back to New Mexico at some point in that week.

Hana's family loved celebrating their kids, and now that Hana has a lot of money, she makes a big show of going all out with presents and dinner and such.

Kikimora predictably has developed a complex around her birthday. When she was little and her mom was pregnant, she overheard a conversation that involved her mom fretting to her dad about how they're going to afford the care for a new child. As a result, Kiki's done everything to make herself as accommodating and undemanding as possible. Nowadays, she rarely if ever tells people her birthday -- even Avi doesn't know. Her dad always made (and continues to make!) an effort to take her out for brunch, but especially since the reveal of Avi and the divorce, Kiki rarely if ever sees her mom and sibling, so. Not a lot going on there. It's....... let's go with complicated.

❣️ - What are their love languages?

Kikimora's love languages are acts of service and quality time; Hana's are acts of service and physical touch. So much physical touch.

Avi's are quality time and gifts (especially because she's not so good at words); Killian's are physical touch and quality time. Also, near-constant roasting.

As a bonus, the third founder of KOK and Kiki and Avi's friend Jason's love languages are words of affirmation and gifts. He's pretty straightforward, generally speaking, which is refreshing if you spend too much time with the other two.

🍳 - How well can they cook?

Of the four, Killian's the best cook! His grandma wasn't happy about him moving so far away in the first place, she sure as hell wasn't going to let him do it without being able to take care of himself!

Avi used to be second best -- cooking was a full-family thing when she was growing up. But ever since her injury, she usually doesn't like to stand for that long. She'd much prefer to use her energy and better days for other, more enjoyable and productive things. But she still makes bomb breakfast foods! Eventually, she will brag any chance she gets about how she domesticated the local mob family with the power of friendship and pancakes. She's not entirely wrong

Kikimora is an okay cook, but just enough to be sufficient. To her, it's just another chore. Hana likes to cook for other people, but she's no chef. It's good enough for her siblings and parents, but she's rich enough that she'll usually order food any day of the week.

#lits #keen 2 talk #oh boy this got long #guess im back on my character bullshit lol #also i keep forgetting that hana did not come from an incredibly rich family #her modeling agency is new #and she only got the money for it when one of her grandparents died and left her a bunch of money in the will #that + luck + connections in the industry got her off the ground #but shes no nepotism baby #anyways #every one of these bitches needs therapy #even killian

My Mar'i Grayson headcanons

Her tamaranean name is Mariandr’

She LOVES thrifting 

One time when she was 12 she tried to ride Lian’s electric scooter. She fell into a ditch and ever since that day has sworn off to drive anything. Cars. Motorcycles. Nothing 

Cyborg built her steel butterfly clips and hair ties made with flexible steel because she ends up burning regular ones

One of her favorite foods is nutella on pizza 

Mar’i and her mother don’t bother wearing nail polish. It ends up burning off when they use star bolts

For my characterization of her, she reminds me of Sam Larusso from Cobra Kai 

Cyborg calls her “little wing”

Cyborg and Jason both call her “princess”

Her fashion sense reflects Dionne from clueless

She loves weight lifting with her mom and doing acrobatics with her dad 

She loves pressing flowers

Mar’i’s favorite flower is forget- me-nots 

You know that scene where Might Guy tells Rock Lee to take off his weights? Jason  used weights when training with Mar’i

She is a huge Nickelback fan

Tim was the one that taught her how to use a bo staff

she think her parents have a ..... questionable sense of style

Whenever she buys dirty shoes from the thrift so always asks Lian Harper to clean them up for her (Cleaning shoes is therapeutic for Lian)

Lian likes to paint shoes and Mar’i is always her model

Dick emphasized the defense aspect of martial arts when teaching her (cough like Daniel Larusso taught Sam Larusso)

Okay can we talk about how she would be so badass?? 

Like she's the daughter of a tamaranean princess and one of the most proficient fighters in the dc universe??

The comics only ever showed her using her powers but this girl would know how to throw hands and do it WELL

She could have been trained by Dick, Jason, and Tim

In conclusion I have many many thoughts

#mar'i grayson #nightwing #starfire #koriand'r #dick grayson #can you tell I'm obsessed #she could have been everything #a nepotism baby #but no

#job secured 😛 #it’s full time 9 hour days but Fridays are 4 hours #my nepotism baby arc (paulina helped me secure it at the clinic I go to LMFAO) #well kinda like I applied and they called me back but I missed the call #so when I went to see her (for the first time since September she said she got excited when she saw my name on her schedule bless her soul) #I told her how I called him back but the like didn’t even ring it just went straight to voicemail both times #so she called him from her work phone and pretended I was a stranger she ran into bc patient confidentiality LMFAOEKFK #she went ‘I found someone in the hall who came to ask about a job because she got a call but hasn’t been able to get in contact with you’ #and he came down there and was Iike ‘I’m so sorry I’ve been doing orientations and interviews all day I must have missed you’ #and we were talking in the elevator to his office about the position and he goes ‘do you have time for an interview right now?’ I was :O #and said yes ofc #interviewed with the 2 pharmacists then and there and he called and offered me the position the next day!! #and I’m making more than I did at my previous job and it’ll go up once I get certified in like 2 months #they’re willing to train me and everything?? #and the reason I wanted this job so bad is bc it counts towards my healthcare experience for grad school SLAY #2 birds 1 stone baby

nepo babies =/= person from a rich family i always thought?

#i thought a nepo baby was specifically someone whose parents/relatives are in the entertainment/arts industries #like taylor swift isnt a nepo baby she just had rich parents?? they bought her way into a music career but with their money not any #connections they had in the music industry previously. #whereas like…Ben Platt would be a nepo baby because he is a stage and film actor and his father is a film producer and produced films #that star him. #that’s not really to say that one is better or worse than the other and i don’t really care about the discourse either way #(people being upset their fave don’t have an organic by-merits-alone rise to fame story kind of confuse me because it seems like a very #modern and out of reality way of thinking) #like i get that people are getting undeserved opportunities through (1) money (2) connections and then putting out subpar art which sucks #but i do kind of think that ultimately you can’t trick people THAT MUCH. kim kardashian threw a bunch of money at a music career and it #never went anywhere because she simply was not good and no one liked it. #billie elish has rich parents but no matter your personal taste you can’t deny she's found success because she has an audience for whom her #music resonates. idk if she would be as successful if her parents didn’t have money and she didn’t have the opportunities that gave her #and certainly there are millions of people as good or better than her at music (if you can even quantify it in that simplistic of a way) wh #will never get the opportunities she has had that gave her success but i also don’t think she would be as successful as she is if she was #less talented. #also this is literally the worst time in history to be worried about nepo babies lol not saying that no one should complain about nepotism #casting but like we are in the golden age of people achieving artistic success through grassroots means thanks to the internet #getting an audience for work that resonates with people without the machine of the entertainment industry backing you is more possible than #ever before #also and i only have to say this in this exactly corner of the internet #if you are a monarchist you can’t use the term nepo baby #sorry you just can’t

david animorphs is the way that he is, an entitled, privileged child who was raised to inherently believe some people are worth less than others, bc he was raised by a cop. ms applegate does not miss.

#jake was raised in a religious jewish household #rachel was raised by a lawyer but shes fucked up for different reasons i think #marco was raised as the brown child of a white single father in poverty #cassie is gestures at her whole domestic life. dope. #and ax IS a military brat and nepotism baby who benefits from his culture's fascism #BUT hes autistic and a freak so it kinda evens out. #i was gonna say HIS MOM IS A POET AND HIS DAD IS AN ANDALITE MINORITY but then i remembered thats cav's fanfiction and not canon

[roughentumble]

so obsessed with taylor swift's fame being a feminist acheivement when her career was bought for her by her daddy btw. she grew up on a christmas tree farm and got all the music tutors she ever asked for and when she wanted to make an album as a teen her dad pulled some strings and used his money to buy her an album, but that was definitely an Acheivement For Feminism that she got to record where thousands of other talented but disadvantaged girls did not

#she's literally only famous because her dad is rich she's the poster child for nepotism baby #but tell me again about the asylum you were raised in. #ms. “i feel very sane” #okay im done tearing my hair out about tay'lor spuff now. shes not a person #she sold her personhood years ago shes now just a pop cultural entity and a figurehead for her brand

[regardingjenmish]

We all know Jensen looks good but can we just talk about how cute JJ is with her outfit and accessories? That girl did not come to play!

#she said the next nepotism baby is here! and i am ready for my close up! #shes fucking adorable #also they are killing me ngl #i mean look at how cute they are holding hands! #dad jensen is the cutest thing ever #jensen ackles

[forgetful-river]

man if the evil smile entity haunting me made me upset my nephew at his birthday party I think I'd just go walk into the sea and have done

#smile #smile spoilers #this is not a good movie unfortunately #not all nepotism babies have the shining ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯ #she's very pretty and i'm sure she could be a serviceable actress. but the script and cinematography are also not doing anybody any favors #man. it follows was really good #and the ring wasn't bad either #movies #psir

stalled my bleach re-read at the rukia + kaien fight. it’s still too sad idc rukia isn’t just lines to me she’s real and she’s my friend and i hate seeing her go thru something like this😭

#thinking abt it from her pov is like. she gets ditched by her bff + soulmate #gets adopted by a dude who won’t even look at her #her nepotism baby status alienates her from her colleagues #but then finally here comes someone who actually treats her like a person and that kindness means so much 2 her that she falls a little bit #in love with him but then she’s put in a situation where she has to mercy kill him #and after that it's just decades of guilt and self-isolation and self-loathing and just feeling like this entire culture rejected you #honestly i'm choosing to read her giving her powers to ichigo after talking to him for 10 minutes as her just being like fuck it #literally thank god bleach ended w/ her becoming a captain and having a family #ok rukia tangent over #rukia kuchiki #bleach

[taramaclaywasaterf]

Maya Hawke is literally so hot that she’s got me saying “maybe nepotism is good sometimes, actually…”

#like there would BE no robin without maya #and there would be no maya without uma thurman and ethan hawke #and a world without lesbian robin is a world I do NOT want to live in #so like….nepotism good sometimes lmao #also trevor was friends with her nanny so liiiike I don’t know how that’s relevant but it is ok??? #the same nanny that her dad ended up marrying lmao #like maya baby I got daddy issues too girl hit me up we can bond #and by bond I mean I will worship the ground you walk on and treat you like the literal goddess you are lol #sorry folks I’m fucking Thirsty right now #I had a date that got canceled cause she got covid and now I’m just like…..help 🙃

Today i got to hear both shift leads that I dislike talk shit about one another

#pretty opposite sides of the same coin #one feels her life is soooooooo much harder than everyone elses that she must constantly be taking a smoke break #and the other is the nepotism baby of the century #honestly after that last close #if i have to answer for anything #im throwing everybody under the bus #but twas very validating to know that they are in fact both the worst

[theteasetwrites]

Real talk the only reason people like Judith is because she gives them Rick/Carl nostalgia don’t @ me

#sorry but its true #I mean the writers gave her no personality other than her constantly mentioning that she’s rick’s kid #even tho she’s actually Shane’s lmfao #Judith is a nepotism baby #oh and she also has a sword like Michonne’s #her entire personality is her parents
