little girl, a patient: can I have a lollipop

doctor merlin in the 21st century: can you have— I have created butterflies from nothing and horses from smoke. I have seen empires rise, fall, crumble, and start from nothing but a fish in a poor man’s hand. I’ve fought witches and failed them too. I’ve laid waste to armies and blessed nations of people with health that will never make up for it. I have pantsed Kings and kissed Queens. I have stood upon the precipice of this world and called forth the ocean only for time to swallow me whole and spit me back out. And I would do it all again if I could grant you, dear Matilda, a lollipop.

little girl: strawberry?

merlin: say no more, Tilda, this should clear up the taste of that cold medicine right away

#bbc merlin #Merlin #merlin emrys #listen. #Merlin being a doctor on and off throughout the entire time he’s had to live meand a LOT to me #especially if he were a GP (general practitioner) in the 20th/21st centuries #like a local doctor of a small town or village #(it’s actually what he is in my farm au) #nebulously this is part of #the sun room #‘verse #I just think he’d have the best time being the eccentric fun doctor to kids #distracting them with wild tales that are very true (though only he knows this) #the parents - and other patients - think he’s a little crazy in an endearing way #that or he must have once wanted to perform theatre or musicals right??? #merlin like yeah ok that’s more believable than the lie I was going to fail at #works for me #merlin headcanons #merlin au

peter parker runs a tumblr account where he tells stories about the ridiculous things his dad says/does. It started as a way to keep all his stories in one place, and he didn't think much of one or two notes here and there.

He didn't expect it to go viral overnight, however, and it seems a little too late to reveal that the "dad" in question is billionaire Tony Stark.

One of the really amusing things about college is that if you pay attention you sometimes can discern some of your professor's favorite pet concepts.

For instance, in my Topology course this semester, the Zariski topology has come up at least once in every single homework set so far, and in multiple lectures.

And okay, that's not that weird. The Zariski topology is a really important object in a LOT of fields, especially algebraic geometry. And discussing it at length is a really pedagogically sound move because the Zariski topology is a good example of a topology with a very well motivated structure (the closed sets are the algebraic sets!) that still very naturally gives rise to a lot of strange features, like the way all open sets in the standard topology are Zariski-dense. It was quite effective at startling me out of the complacency of unconsciously basing my intuition of how topologies behave entirely on the standard topology on the reals. So my professor bringing up Zariski so often doesn't necessarily mean he has any special affection for it.

except...

My professor writes many of the homework problems himself. Not all of them - the less interesting ones he lifts from the textbook- but some. Well, every single Zariski topology question I've encountered so far is an original from this guy. I know because the all the questions he writes personally have paragraphs of commentary contextualizing why he thinks the problem is interesting and where the ideas in the problem are going later in the course. And well- let's just say the asides on the Zariski topology have been copious indeed

AND THEN there's the way he talks about the Zariski topology in class! It's with this blend of enthusiasm and fascination only comparable to the way I've seen tumblrites talk about their blorbos. Like hey! Come behold this sgrungy little guy! Isn't he fucked up? Isn't he marvelous? And I look and I can only conclude YEAH that is indeed a spectacular specimen, he's so strange, I want to put him in a terrarium and study him (and then I get to! In my homeworks!)

Anyways. It makes me really happy picking up on how excited my professor is to share this topology with us. I'm kind of baffled that people assume math is a boring field full of boring people when there exist folks like my professor who get this passionate about a topology!

Can we talk about how Derek obviously has a type because Spencer and Penelope are so similar.

#whether you see them as romantic or not #his closest most genuine friendships/relationships are with two people who are VERY similar #I just think it's cute #Because in theory youd think “oh big muscular jock whos a player” and you wouldnt associate him with them #but then you realize that his best friends are socially awkward nerds who hate any kind of physical exercise #and are very eccentric #and ill add “conventionally” attractive even though we all know thats bs because theyre both hot asf #I just think its so wholesome cause its like opposites attractive kind of thing #and hes just so open-minded and loving and the least judgemental person ever #cm #criminal minds #criminal minds meta #derek morgan #ssa derek morgan #spencer reid #ssa spencer reid #penelope garcia #moreid

Hello! I was just wondering if you've gotten any asks yet about Desmond being in the hunger games :0? Like whether he was transported there or something else :v

I don’t think I’ve ever had any asks for a Hunger Games AU. For this one, we can make Desmond be born in one of the other Districts and volunteers himself as tribute to keep one of the younger children safe. In this one, I suggest he be born as an orphan who takes younger orphans under his wings, teaching them to a bit of self defense and anything he can that won’t get the attention of the Capital’s goons.

He knows there’s something deeply wrong in this world he is reborn in and, given any other situations, he would have already started to make plans to rain hell on the people directly oppressing his district but he gets caught up in all the Hunger Games to save one of his fellow orphans.

If you want him to be caught up in the Hunger Games that Katniss was in, then I would suggest he be part of any of the District where the tributes died during the initial bloodbath in Cornucopia.

Desmond would probably feel sick about the whole ‘appealing to the audience’ and will be snidely making remarks about how disgusting they all are for watching all of these for entertainment, making him more or less a black sheep of the tributes that even his fellow tribute would try to shy away from.

Honestly? Putting Desmond who has the memories of 3 mentors and 1 grand master in a field filled with children?

Not a good deal.

He would never hurt innocent children and would even try to help them even though most of them (if not all of them) would doubt his sincerity. He would definitely go head to head with the Career pack and kick their asses but he wouldn’t kill them because they’re children and he knows that they were ‘conditioned’ to think of killing as normal but, at the same time, he would definitely make sure they would not be able to harm anybody else.

In all honesty, Desmond’s real enemy in the Hunger Games would be the Gamemakers and he’d definitely get into their bad side. The only reason why he doesn’t fall for their traps is because of his Eagle Vision.

If this does follow Katniss’ Hunger Games then Desmond would probably have a wary truce with Katniss (after saving Rue ofc) and there would be less death this time around with Desmond fucking the Gamemakers’ plan all the time, all the while goading the watchers to see how fucked up this is.

Honestly, at some point, Desmond is probably going to find a weak point in the location they’re in and exploit it, maybe even use the monsters they send out later in the game by having them attack the weak point and essentially jail breaking everyone out.

(Although, there’s probably some tributes who would talk about how this would only punish their districts and Desmond knows that they are holding their districts hostage so it’s really between two hard places)

Sidebar: Desmond would probably understand why District 13 is not ‘acting’ against the Capitol and he would probably side with the rebels but, at the same time, he would definitely not agree with a lot of the plans the rebels. This also has the side effect of the rebellion probably having Desmond as the symbol instead of Katniss (or maybe not, who knows)

#i kinda like the idea that katniss is still the symbol #with desmond being too much of a renegade #katniss symbolizes rebellion #desmond symbolizes chaos #everyone is afraid of desmond because it always looks like he knows more than he should #he has fans from the capitol though #who sees him as very ‘eccentric’ ‘unique’ and ‘rebellious’ #assassin's creed #desmond miles #ask and answer #teecup writes/has a plot #fic idea: assassin's creed #fic idea: hunger games #fic idea: crossover

I love that Tendou spends the entirety of Kabuto in love with Kagami. I love that it takes Kagami like 40 episodes to figure it out because he's a dog person trying to understand a cat. I love that Tendou seems so cold because he's so self-centred and blunt at times while overly vague and closed-off at others, but his love is all-encompassing and unconditional. I love that Kagami is the typical bumbling main rider in the role of the secondary, that Tendou is his rival but not vice-versa, because Tendou is still the true main rider who openly likes his ill-tempered secondary from the start, though he shows it in a way that no one who doesn't know Tendou would be able to understand. I love that when Kagami finally figures it out, he realises it's been love the whole time, and that there's no grand gesture needed. I love that he knows Tendou at that point. I love that he understands what Tendou wants to hear, and it's not bold proclamations or heroic speeches, but something that seems blunt and presumptuous in the way Tendou himself is. Cook something for me (continue to love me) (I want to be loved by you)

#tokuposting #Tendou really has a lot more in common with Shouichi than just the cooking and the Good Cop secondary tbh #I won't say too much because I know oomfie wants to start Agito sooner or later but hmmmm! #Tendou is really one of the most tenderhearted of the heisei riders #he's just confident in his abilities while eccentric and ppl often mistake confidence for conceit and eccentricity for social incompetence #very autism coded bug our Tendou but in a very different way to let's say Wataru or Haruto #anyway I really like Tendou and it's a pity when people reduce him down to Cool Guy No Emotions #he's very emotional! tell me you didn't actually watch Kabuto without telling me that smh #anyway #Kamen Rider Kabuto

was today years old when discovering that the eleventh doctor wears leather trousers. his trousers are made of black leather. Black leather with the ends rolled up and I. have no idea what to think-

#what do you mean he is wearing BLACK LEATHER TROUSERS #all this time I thought it was denim but I just saw his Children In Need short and? they really are? black leather? #exactly like the books and articles describe. he is wearing black leather #ON HIS LEGS #I genuinely thought oh ha! tweed old man jacket with elbow patches. cotton shirt. braces and bow tie. boots. precious man #denim trousers #BUT NO. NO. hear me. listen to me. that sideways old man babyface is wearing black leather trousers. do you know what that makes him? #COOL. do you know what that also makes him? STUPID #he's even more ridiculous than I thought he was. who does that. like the tweed and the bow tie and the elbow patches were all quirky #all eccentric and geek chic and niche and moffat and the costumers really tried to create a very OBVIOUS caricature #but it worked and it came together to look exactly how it was supposed to look okay. but. BUT. #it is all sitting on top of cleverly-disguised. barely-referred-to. blink-twice-and-you'll-miss-them- #black leather trousers. *inhale with me* matt smith in his mid-twenties dressing as a geek chic alien grandfather.

trying to get a handle on my own design of him...

#spiderman 2099 #spider-man 2099 #miguel o'hara #my art #this is more close to a 'design if i was in charge of a sm2099 adaptation' tbh #my take on a sm2099 story would be very bizarre and eccentric... a hyperkinetic nueva york through the eyes of a changed man... #the quiet dimness of his room lit more by the windows or by lyla.... imagining it.....anyways yeah! here's miguel! #also yes he has gradient hair im not explaining that... lol

reminders of the passage of time moodeboard

#my blog is in his last year of middle school. he'll be off to high school next year (at least I think so..? 13 yrs old is usually 8th grade #at least from my experience. 9th graders are usually 14. 10th are 15. etc. etc. and then you're in 12th grade #and graduate high school usually 17yrs old.) ANYWAY.. wow he is so ancient.. #maybe he's still in a preteeny early teen emo phase or something.. I hope he gets some black and white striped armwarmers and black eyeline #r for his birthday. Maybe an MP3 player of course. Though because I don't really like most alternative music and he is my son he's actually #not allowed to listen to metal or pop punk or emo rock whatever stuff. I open the mp3 player and pre-stock it with only #disco and funk and classical music. he can have a little chiptune or techno stuff as a treat (sometimes emo adjacent maybe more #scene. I think a lot of scene kids were into that more.. emo's weird eccentric brother)) #Also he starts taking iron pills his 13th birthday because he's probably incredibly anemic just like me #so on and so forth and et cetera (I'm just being silly.. I am not pro-controlling your children down to whatmusic they #listen to or etc.etc. lol) #THOUGH I love that it's in january... january is one of my favorite months if not my favorite. yeeaaay #just such a nice cool month. I like that it's the start of the year mostly and that it's sometimes snowy here. Like where I live nov - dec #isnt really actually snowy?? You always associate those winter Months with snow but I think snow happens later on this coast #so it's more like Jan - March or even april sometimes. Though that may just be climate change lol.. But it's cool that Jan is winter AND #ACTUALLY snowy. plus the Beginning Of Year vibes and energy.. hrm... nice nice.. ANYWAY #AND this is not even my first tumblr blog. I had a different one before it I think.. #evviilll to be on one website for so long lol.. Very thankful that most websites I used to use as a 10 year old or whatever #are now defunct. There's something weird about how humans are just creating endless streams of words and pictures and all of this stuff #and it just goes out into the void and stays there long after the person themselves has forgotten it. not even like 'oh no what if i said #something bad!!' but more just the general sense of.. people create so much more ideas than they can actually hold in their heads. nobody #remembers exactly word for word every post they've ever made or etc. It's like parts of yourself that you've externalized and then fade awa #from you but they're still you but they're not so you just have little snapshots of yourself in time floating around entirely unbenknownst #to you. like making clones of yourself and then forgetting you did so but every once in a while going 'shit... there's clones out there.. #of me and I don't even have track or awareness of them anymore.. what an odd concept..' etc. not EXACTLY like that ghbj..you know what I me #n.. or maybe you dont.. hrmm... ANYWAY #I am just now slightly recovering from my most recent mysterious illness spell and etc. so I would like to post more again and mAYBE even #do a costume if I'm being ambitious.. but after so many times of being randomly stricken by problems I'm now fearful of ever being too #hopeful lol.. always like 'I would like to go to the grocery store tomorrow! .... MAYBE.. if i CAN.. possibly... NOT getting my hopes up'. #etc. etc. etc. every statement has a caveat and a backup plan and so on and so forth and such is life.. anyway. happy birthday evil tumblr

To socialise or not to socialise, that is the question.

#Looked at two places I could move out to & they are complete opposite vibes in terms of socialableness #Both have roommates ofc but one gives me a lot more of my own space & it seems like I would barely have to interact with them at all #So I'd be left pretty much completely alone. Which is usually the dream #And ngl knowing the other people there would keep to themselves & have no interest in knowing me is especially relieving #Given the whole thing that pushed me to move out in the first place #The other has extremely small & cozy vibes. Owner's stuff all over the place #By cozy I do mean cluttered #The girl I met with there (not the person I'd be renting from) gave me a tour for five-ten mins #And then the next 30 mins-60 mins we spent chatting over tea #Someone more sociable than me might call it instant bestie vibes #Which. Has been something I've kind of very much been missing/yearning for irl I will admit #& from the sound of it the person subletting has the same vibes with her #She says he's 'interesting' and 'I'd like him' #From the combination of her description and the clutter I'm getting eccentric professor vibes #Which is generally a good vibe to me #But I am even more skittish of renting from someone t #Too sociable #After prev landlord #Though I want to trust othet tenant's vibe check. Because it might actually be very nice to have some kind of real life friends #It's also a very different kind of sociable than prev landlord #She was 'chatty and gets you to open up easily' sociable & it sounds like the other guy will be approximately the same #& also 'repeatedly assures you can ask her to stop if she's being too much' sociable. Which is always a relief #Meanwhile prev landlord was 'wants to know why you're not relaxed & tells you you should be without doing anything to help you be' sociable #'gets very pushy about finding time to talk/hang out' sociable #'teases you for being awkward' sociable #None of which were the real issue with him of course. But they didn't help & I can't help but see them as red flags in retrospect #I'm currently leaning towards 'to socialise' because it was a very cosy vibe & I do feel starved of irl friendship just a bit #But it could either be very good or very bad #& I don't want to risk very bad again #Anyway. This has been missives from a pizza shop I ducked into to charge my phone before I go back to being lost in a snowstorm

dragon zhongli. that’s all.

hmm i have actually been thinking about this lately. like would he go into hibernation - idk much on dragon lore buuut i like the idea of him being all sleepy and cuddly with a very full tummy throughout the colder seasons. maybe even a little chubby as a Treat :3 if he storms off after an argument during this time i think childe would go to find him and be like. i’ll let you be the little spoon and rub your tummy if you come home to bed :) and suddenly the geo archon returns to his human form and sulks the whole way home with him

andddd the huge appetite,,, i think he would get hungry very fast - and very easily due to how much food he would need to satiate that emptiness. i like to imagine him with soft little tummy rumbles when he’s hungry, but realistically, his stomach is probably very loud and makes its situation known to everybody around him. poor childe has to cook for all of liyue when he’s making dinner for the two of them when they stay in, and make sure to rub his tummy so zhongli doesn’t become moody towards everything ;-;

the possessiveness also. so good !! i think the whole collecting treasures thing is very cute too i remember being so happy they wrote that into his character :3

#calm cool 6000 yr old mature zhxngli is fun but honestly #ive been loving eccentric petty possessive zhxngli so much too #also can we talk ab the Possibilities of mxting season omg……. i saw this on one of my fav gensh artists twt and it’s like okay galaxy brain #anyways #I know he’s based on the ancient chinese dragon persona more so than the mainstream dragon stuff but they also have a lot of that written #into his character so idk he seems to be both ?? #also #in general #dragon D……… #and the fangs and such #very good very good

really fond of art w/ bro and baby/toddler dave bc i like to imagine it in a sort of universe where bro wasnt being influenced by cal and got to just be dirk but adult.

#homestuck #dave strider #dirk strider #bro strider #this isnt me saying dave wasnt abused btw he definitely was #i just like the what if scenario yknow #like if bro had gotten to just be older dirk rather than older dirk that was very clearly fucked up #by constant exposure to lil cal #like we saw what lil cal did to g*mzee and he didnt even have him that long #i just think bro minus cal wouldve been like. maybe a little eccentric #but dave never wouldve doubted he was cared for #does anybody understand what im talking abt or do i sound insane #like dirk very clearly cares about his friends/family and i think that could very easily extend to a baby he adopted
