⋆ ˚｡⋆౨ৎ˚ A New Brother?!

content: leo valdez x daughter of poseidon! reader fic (ft. my baby boy tyson) warning: i wanna say none but i dont trust myself, language probs author's note: okay okay so this one was the first winner!! the rest will follow in order with how many votes they got and such. but first LETS PUT A LITTLE RESPECT ON TYSONS NAME YALL THAT'S MY SON OF POSEIDON FR FR HES JUST A LITTLE GUY I CANT-

“dude! dude! dude!” y/n called as she ran from the big house toward percy, who was sitting on the steps outside of cabin three with annabeth, both of them looking up at her yells.

“bro! bro! bro!” percy called back with a laugh, sharing a look with annabeth, who shook her head at the two siblings as she went back to her architectural sketches for something.

“i’ve got news!” y/n cheers, standing before percy with her hands pulled up to her chest and an unbeatable smile on her lips. percy motioned for her to go on, looking at her suspiciously.

“my favorite brother will be joining us at camp for the next three days,” y/n announced, proudly, causing percy to jump up to his feet too.

“no way! what?” he cheered, the two of them soon jumping in a circle. annabeth laughed at them, getting joy from their joy. leo had walked over at some point, looking at the children of poseidon with concern. annabeth waved him over to sit next to her, giving them the perfect view of the excited teens.

“what did i miss?” leo questioned, unable to take his eyes off the pair but turning his head towards annabeth.

“tyson, their brother, is coming to stay at camp for a few days. they don’t see him very often because he works with the cyclops with their father, so they tend to get a bit excited,” annabeth explained with a shrug. leo nodded, having already been told about tyson by y/n. she loved to rave about him, proudly showing the picture of him she kept in her cabin at any needed moment.

“i call dibs on snack duty! you didn’t even get anything good last time,” y/n insisted, pointing at percy as they sat down next to their respective significant others, both a little out of breath and sweaty, but smiling nonetheless.

“whatever. tyson liked those pickle chips,” percy huffed, jokingly rolling his eyes.

“yeah, but i did not like the smell of your guys' breath,” y/n replied, scrunching her face up, which earned her a laugh.

“okay, okay, fair. so i'm on movie duty then?” percy questioned and y/n nodded.

“yes, cause tyson’s on fort duty, duh,” answered y/n before she spun in leo’s arms and looked up at him, who looked down at her with a raised brow and a smile

“hi, hey,” she rapidly shot out before pressing her lips against his and promptly pulling back.

“gross!” percy called, earning him an elbow against his rib from annabeth.

“please, i was tortured by you two for like five summers, i’ve earned my dues,” y/n replied, squinting at the two with a glare.

“fair enough.”

tyson showed up a few days later, a large dopey smile on his face as he waved the hippocampus that gave him a ride away. y/n and percy were, obviously, the first to greet him and get him settled in their cabin. most of the older campers knew tyson or at least knew of him, so they weren’t really too phased by the cyclops being at camp. it was the younger ones who took a little more time, but with how sweet tyson was it really wasn’t a problem. leo had gotten caught up in the forges, annabeth having asked him if he could roadtest something for her, which sent him down a rabbit hole of trying to figure it out.

“leo?!” y/n’s voice called through the forge, leo’s eyes moving from the twisted metal in front of him to the girl standing in the doorway of the forge, along with a bulkier and taller figure.

“hey, honey. give me a minute, yeah?” he called as both of his hands were occupied. he didn’t hear anything in response but he trusted that she was probably just showing tyson some of the new projects or something like that. after a bit, leo walked up, shoving his goggles up and dusting his hands off on his once white shirt.

“leo, this is tyson, my brother. tyson, this is leo, my boyfriend,” y/n introduced, gesturing between the two. leo held his hand out to the cyclops, smiling widely.

“hey, man, nice to meet you. y/ns, here, loves to rave about you,” mused leo before he was promptly pulled into a bone crushing huge.

“right, sorry, tyson’s a hugger,” y/n winced, forgetting to mention that to leo, who groaned as he was let go. he shot a look at the girl, who giggled quietly behind her hand.

“a new brother! very exciting, sister, and he can build things!” tyson cheered, happily nodding his head. leo blushed at the insinuation and y/n coughed, opening her mouth to correct him.

“oh, tyson, he’s not- we’re not- he’s just my boyfriend. when…when we get married, he’d be your brother,” y/n tried to explain, her voice catching on the word ‘when.’ then she shared a look with leo, which just solidified her ‘when’ and not ‘if.’

“oh,” tyson frowned, his eyebrows furrowing and leo had a feeling tears would be next.

“y/n mentioned you work in forges, right? come on, i’ll show you what i’m working on, could use some help,” leo redirected, easily, nodding his head back towards the forges. tyson’s eye lit up and he looked over at y/n for permission, but she was looking at leo with a melty and soft look in her eyes.

"sister?"

“hmm? oh, yeah, you’re good, tyson. just bring him back to percy and i before dinner, okay, lee?” y/n asked and leo gave her a salute, which tyson mimicked with a little laugh. y/n watched them go, her heart full of love and a blinding smile on her face.

right before dinner, percy and y/n were making their way towards the forge to pick up tyson, but tyson came running out of the forge in excitement, something clasped safety in his large hands. the siblings shared a look as leo trailed after him.

“percy! y/n! look!” he proudly cheered, stopping before the two and unfurling his hands to reveal a small metallic horse sculpture. he squealed in excitement on seeing it again.

“wow! super cool, tyson!” percy cheered, clapping the cyclops on the back.

“you make that yourself or did leo?” y/n jumped in, beaming a smile between her boyfriend and little brother.

"oh, all tyson. i only helped here and there," leo mused, holding his hands up with a wide smile and a wink to you and percy.

"yup. all me," tyson echoed, clearly having grown fond of leo in the past few hours.

"good job, buddy! wanna go show annie?" percy offered with a wide smirk, which had tyson nodding his head and following after his brother. you stayed behind with leo, watching your siblings go as leo wrapped his arms around your waist and rested his head on your shoulder.

"thank you. for hanging out with him today," you whispered and you could feel leo shrug as he pressed a kiss to your shirt clad shoulder.

"course. he's a good guy and handy in the forges. being fireproof tends to be helpful," leo replied and you giggled, turning to make eye contact with him.

"and you'd know all about that, huh?" you taunted and leo rolled his eyes, releasing his hands from you, which just caused you to laugh harder.

"whatever. and to think, i made you a present!" huffed the son of hephaestus, turning his nose up at the girl.

"ooo, what'd ya make?" she questioned, poking at his side with her fingers.

"no. mean girlfriend's don't get gifts," added leo, trying to dodge the attack of her fingers the best he could.

"c'mon, don't be that way, pretty boy," you pouted, batting your eyes at him in a way that had leo instantly folding, reaching back into his tool belt with a tiny shake of his head.

"that's an abuse of power," he stated before presenting you with a metal lily, delicately sculpted and stretched out of metal. and you were instantly swooning, gently caressing it with your fingers before darting your wide eyes up to him.

"only the longest lasting flowers for my girl," leo added, winking with a smirk. you rolled your eyes but clutched the flower to your chest like it was your child.

"y/n! stop flirting and come help with the snacks!" percy called, giving you a pointed look and setting a hand against his hip like a mother. you huffed at him, sticking your tongue out before turning to leo and pressing a kiss to his cheek.

"you're the sweetest boy, valdez," you whispered to the skin of his cheek before racing off, shouts that you'll make it to cabin three first, which sent both of your brothers barreling after you. leo watched this with a smile and a blush slowly rising to where your lips had been.

yeah, he was going to marry this girl. tyson'd throw a fit if he didn't. and he just couldn't have that, could he?

shameless hot takes

i kind of dig the way lip ended up as a failure. i know a lot of people hate what the show did to him, how he never lived up to his potential (the same way they do it to rory gilmore) but like. that happens. lifes just like that. sometimes people who have had everything to live with grandiosity end up ruining everything up, and lips life was HARD and it SUCKED so him failing its kind of expectable i think. and its not like lips life ended, mans not even 30 and hes not just smart hes a genius, he will end up turning the table and coming straight to the top, i believe so.

frank doesn't love his children. i know people like to think frank was somewhat nice sometimes and that he was troubled but he loved the gallaghers his own way but i dont think he really did. he didnt even knew them. he was just too selfish and a narcissist and not even once a "act of love" was genuine or didnt have a gain for him or was somewhat for his benefit or interest.

of all plots, i believe gay jesus was the worst. i tried to remeber every other plot of the show and dont get me wrong the frank and his buddy pal mickey oshea SUCKED and i love ian hes my favorite character but what the fuck was that. the idea is really nice but it took so long to convey this arc of mania of him and it just was really badly written and executed and later it doesn't have importance to the plot. no surprise cameron monaghan wanted to skip shameless after that.

gallavich is not a healthy goal relationship. i mean yeah, they do love each other and they are good to each other, and i will excuse them for all the shit they did as teenagers cause they seemed to forgive each other and grow from it and i dont think they knew best but as adults they dont fucking communicate and mick broke ians leg like common. also most of time ian just seems to regret having married mick is really frustrating. i genuinely dont understand how that happened cause gallavich was all the writes had to milk and serve for the last seasons and they still fucked it up.

debbie is a rapist. she just is. just like sheila is too, i believe, and frank, and mandy, and jody, and estefania (i dont think jimmysteve is tho). they practiced nonconsensual sex and thats rape, end of story. i know the deborah debate is kind of hot ground and everybody has a different opinion about it cause she was young and didnt have the proper sex ed. but she did it not once, but twice AFTER facing consequences and getting to educate herself about what she did and why that was wrong, and i believe she would do it again if she had the motivation like she did on those circumstances. not saying matty or derick were cool guys, fuck them, matty wanted to go out with an underage girl when he met debbie and he kept going out with her after knowing she was much younger than he first thought and derick know that having sex can lead to having a baby and he and his family should have tried to be better to franny, but still they didnt deserved to by lied and abused by deb.

the gallaghers house should be debbie and carl's to decide what to do. the house is in fionas name, that much is true, but it is clear they kept contact with fiona at the begging of season 10 as she calls debbie to know about freddie and at that hall of fame episode too, so that much wouldn't be a problem. also, as fiona left, she left debbie in charge of the house's finances, and i believe the responsibility of what to do with the house is left with debbie too. i dont think fiona would be thrilled with the wouse being sold but she moved on and if her siblings are up to moving on too i dont think she would be opposed to it. that said, she would let the house deed on debbies hand i believe. taking up the fact that debbie is a mom with a little child and no other place to live, the fact she doesnt want to sell the house is comprehensible and i dont think any other gallagher can say its not, even more so lip. they tried to make the decision voting, letting the majority determinate what to do, but i dont think thats fair since lip could very easily get a house to himself and ian and mickey too, they had the money. now, about carl, is simply cause he paid for the house, therefore he should had a say on it. season 6, when the house was going to be sold, no other Gallagher than fiona was really trying to make to money to buy it. when she couldnt, carl saved the day and gave the money, and fiona was reluctant but she had no other option than to accept it, otherwise they would lose the house. even though the house is in fionas name like she likes to make it very clear, it is carls, and if he wanted to he could have put it in someone elses name, not lip cause he's in debt cause of the credit cards he has gotten to pay college, but he could have made it ians or anyone elses. he didnt cause he respects family and he respects fiona. since the house is his, and he also didnt really had any other place like debbie, they both should make the decision together.

fiona fucking sucks. i know a lot of people hates her and a lot loves her, and theres people in here that knows shes middle ground just like basically everybody on the show, which is called SHAMELESS for a reason. and i can agree with everybody. my point here is that she did nice things and stupid things and i dont hate her or love her for them, nor do i think all is forgiven because of her trauma or that shes number one worst character of the show. i think she sucks, think that she was wrong for all the liam shit, that she is an agent of chaos, that she was a bad girlfriend for all of her boyfriends just like they were bad for her (except mike he rocks), i think she make some of them worst really; i understand her desire to grown and be someone but i think it was risky to put the gallaghers house on the line so she could open the laundry (even more so cause i dont really consider it hers but carls), i understand how at some point she wanted to grow and take care of herself and be less of an parent in her sibling's life cause if she took care of herself since she was nine i think her siblings could try and take care of each other and their own ass a little so she could start living but the way she didnt really helped ian, the way she shut down debbie and was sad when debbie shuted her down, the way she left carl to his white boy fase without as much as trying and the way she said to them put VERONICA and KEVIN first at their emergency call before her was insane and she should be dragged for it idc. she was always mean to her siblings romantic interests too and that really bugs me cause mandy put lip in college and mickey cared for ian.

lip fucking sucks. most people here think the similarity between lip and frank starts and finishes on alcoholism and appearance but i think its more than that, i think both of them are narcissistic motherfuckers. i cant think of a single time lip put effort in anything for any other reason than to satisfy himself. it is the most evident when you think about his relationships SPECIALLY tami and fred, but if you think about his desire to be a father, the way he treated fiona when she was down, the whole sierra fiasco and how he treated her sons daddy, the karen ian thing; he even said that he helps his alcoholic friends because he thinks that if they cant do it then certainly lip himself won't be able to do it. i cant hold ian to the same parameters, i only think deb fiona and carl are really there for each other but ian gets a pass cause hes just selfish to some extent. he is bipolar and shit went down when he was still a child; still, joining the army and sending no news was a dick move and when he was good and on his meds and working as an EMT i think he wasnt really there for his family, tho he cared for mandy. cant really say much cause most of the time he was out of himself or in jail.

I already talked about it in this post, but I want to share all of my thoughts properly.

The Metal Masked Assassin (I'll refer to him as MMA) was an incredibly unlucky person when you think about it. His mother passed away right after he was born. It's assumed she either died of blood loss due to birth complications, or she might have even been murdered, due to her baby being born with albinism.

We don't know anything about his father's whereabouts, if he's alive or dead, if he would take his children in if he knew. Either way, he's not in the picture. But unluckily, MMA was "left a brother".

Logically, we can put together that MMA's brother was older than him. We don't know for sure how many years the two siblings were apart, though. Judging by the picture of them as teens, their age difference doesn't appear to be too great. Of course, MMA might simply be tall, even as a teenager, and looking older than he really is.

There's also a possibility that, while both of them are depicted as teenagers in this picture, Agent 216 was actually already an adult while MMA was still young. It would make more sense for authorities to leave an infant in the care of a relative who's over at least 16 years old than leaving two young children completely on their own.

We can only speculate about their childhood years, honestly, since there is not much known at all. They could have been adopted by a distant relative, placed in a foster family, given up for adoption... But one thing is for sure, just from looking at these pictures - Even as teenagers, they were already prone to violence, and already hiding their faces.

Perhaps they got by thanks to armed robberies, perhaps they were already training to be assassins at this age. Personally, I'm voting for the first option, just because their clothes appear to be in a bad condition, holes and all, which is not the case in the image depicting them as adults. Their weapon of choice is also quite different; the bat and axe being more commonly used for self protection or work, and the machete/knife looking much more professional.

But now to the part I've been wanting to talk about.

Let's start with what we know about Agent 216. According to General Crozier, he is a "trained killer". That means, someone, or some kind of organization, must have taken him under their wing and taught him the art of being an assassin at some point. At least as a teenager. It's never specified where the two assassins got their education from. But however and wherever they spent their youth; Agent 216 was most likely the more skilled assassin, considering he's the one the General confides in and claims to be "perfect".

Ah yes, General Crozier. At least as an adult, Agent 216 must have some sort of connection to the US Military, or at least General Crozier directly, since it's him who personally hires him, and then informs MMA about his death later. No other tribunal members are present, nor are they aware that he was hired to kill, not just to spy.

What I find really interesting is that Agent 216 has a tattoo of the FalconBack Project logo on his left arm. Whatever that means. It makes me wonder if he and Crozier have some kind of connection outside of the deal, and if the assassination attempt on Dethklok was more of a personal favor to the General instead of a one time deal. Whatever connection they have was apparently meaningful enough for Agent 216 to get involved in a top secret project led by Salacia himself - but not his younger brother.

This raises a whole bunch of questions, but that's for another day and another post.

So where is MMA in all this? Where was he in all this?

While MMA is a violent person and seemingly has a passion for murder, what stood out to me is that he is never actually seen involved in any assassination related jobs that don't directly involve avenging his dead brother in a way - besides that one time where he's introduced. The people he fixates on besides Dethklok themselves are Klokateers and Charles Ofdensen, in particular. Perhaps that can simply be blamed on MMA's lack of screen time, but I would leave it up to Brendon Small to consider any small detail.

MMA appears to be as goal driven and determined as he is violent, with only a single goal in mind throughout the entire series - avenging Agent 216, regardless of what it may cost. He's willing to dispose of anyone who gets in his way, including his allies (Magnus).

What I'm thinking is... what if he wasn't even a blade for hire before the death of his brother? What if the only reason why Crozier was able to "hire" him was because of his promise for revenge? What if Agent 216 was the "actual" assassin among them, while MMA was more or less a sick and dependent child who simply got caught up in the situation?

This sounds farfetched but hear me out.

Regardless of how they grew up, regardless of what led up to this point; MMA's older brother was clearly very dear to him. So dear, in fact, that avenging him consumed every bit of space on his mind. While MMA willingly recruited people to assist him in his cause, for the most part, he used people who felt wronged by Dethklok for his own gain. Instead of viewing them as likeminded individuals, he saw them as underlings. Even Magnus, who did most of the "negotiating" during DSR, treated Toki's wounds and fed him, was just a puppet to MMA in the end. Once Magnus didn't cooperate with him anymore (claiming that the death of Ishnifus "wasn't part of his plan"), MMA didn't hesitate to show who's the REAL mastermind behind it all ("this was never your plan").

Throughout the series, we definitely saw that MMA has a tendency to use people for his benefit, and discard them once they're no longer useful to him, without any consideration for their feelings, or even their lives. We also learn that he's not much of a "talker" and much rather a "do-er". He leaves all the talking to Magnus, who dramatically goes off to Toki and Abigail about his reasoning, while MMA is in the background only thinking about revenge and his brother.

He seems to do very poorly with things not going his way. He doesn't listen to instructions from Crozier. He refuses to let Magnus berate him. Like a child, he no longer wants to play the game if it's not by his rules.

This is acquired behavior. Which means, somebody taught him that this is the way to go through live. Most likely - his older brother.

While he clearly holds a lot of admiration for Agent 216, it makes me wonder. The contrast between how much he looks up to his brother and how much he looks down on other human beings is stark. It's almost like he looks up to his brother like he's some kind of God leading him on his path, even displaying his body during the torture of Toki and Abigail. He MIGHT just be a crazy dude with a lust for blood who saw an excuse to kill and torture. He MIGHT just be very obsessed with the only person he has a real connection with.

Or perhaps, his brother isn't the good person he views him as.

I believe Agent 216 might have always made MMA feel inferior to him, knowingly or not. Being labeled the "perfect" assassin, the older brother who was kind enough to raise an abandoned baby, the one fending for them. Plus, with MMA having some visible physical deformities, he most likely was the "better looking" one, too.

Perhaps the reason why MMA isn't seen assassinating anyone for other reasons than revenge is that his brother simply took the spotlight. In the best case, Agent 216 merely wanted to protect MMA from this kind of lifestyle, both because he's his little brother who he cared for, as well as considering Albinism comes with a long list of potential health issues, depending on the exact diagnosis. Examples are vision problems, ranging from nystagmus (rapid uncontrollable eye movements) to legal blindness, sensitivity to (sun)light in both eyes and skin, a weaker immune system, a higher risk of infections, premature aging, etc.

Or perhaps all these things were a lot of excuses for Agent 216 to treat his little brother harshly and cast him into the shadows.

Tidbits that made me put this together in my mind would be, for example, the fact that MMA is covered in scars, while Agent 216 is not. Strange, considering that his targets are mostly seen tied up, hanging from hooks or otherwise immobilized. And somehow, all these scars look the same. They all look as if they were inflicted by... a machete perhaps.

In early concept art, MMA is shown with what appears to be burn marks. They almost look as if they were deliberately inflicted on him. The spotting doesn't exactly appear like he got caught in a fire, much rather that they came from separate instances.

And one more thing, which might just be an observation I made that you might disagree with. But as someone who worked with both abused and disabled children in the past... I recognize some of his patterns and behaviors.

Looking up to the one person caring for him without even a second thought. Enduring great pain for their sake. HAPPILY doing so. Not being great at dealing with instructions. Not handling it well when someone disagrees with him or even scolds him. Letting the "adult Magnus" do the talking for him in difficult situations. Struggling to relate to people, perhaps even due to low emotional intelligence, or simply not understanding that people have feelings. Not CARING if they have feelings, possibly. Using people for his benefit, then discarding them like dolls he's done playing with once they're not useful anymore.

All acquired behaviors somebody taught him in his life.

Considering his condition, harsh upbringing and visible deformities, it wouldn't surprise me if he was a younger age mentally. His behavior is almost childlike in ways. The way he phrases things, too. Revengencers, instead of Revengers. The fact that he has these scars, yet his brother didn't have a single one on him.

This might be a reach. A big reach. But what if Agent 216 had him completely wrapped around his finger. All like "I had to endure so much for your sake, so I have a right to take my anger out on you", and perhaps followed up by an "I do this because I love you and because that's the only way you learn". I can see him making MMA feel inferior, for his appearance, for needing food, medication, comfort. Guilty for "killing" their mother. For being a burden. How dare he want love. Isn't it enough that he puts his life on the line for him every day? What is love? Baby don't hurt me

To me, he's a lost, disabled person stuck in a trauma bond with his brother until the end.

Slow Day

Pairing: Jason Todd (version unspecified) x F!Reader

Warnings: threats, mentions of crimes, mentions of death, Dick’s a nosy bastard

Word count: 1790

A/N: Castle of Glass won the vote so here’s part 9! The next chapter of In Better Circumstances will be out on my birthday on Sunday! I rewrote this several times and I’m still not entirely happy with it, but it is just a filler chapter before the next. Anyway, I hope you like it!

Masterlist

Series masterlist

Ko-Fi

Y/N groaned as her alarm went off. She blindly reached out to switch it off, swearing when she knocked her phone off the nightstand instead.

“What’d set an alarm for?” Jason slurred into his pillow, not bothering to open his eyes.

“I’ve got a conference call. They’re handing out this months assignments.” She told him, hanging off the edge of the bed to finally silence her phone. She was so tired, between work and running comms for Dick and Jason each night until the sun had already risen, she was running out of energy. But neither of them were willing to come in any earlier, just in case the Joker decided to give some insight into his location.

“Sounds fun.” He mumbled, opening one eye to peak at her.

She sat up and turned to look at him. His curls were all over the place, strong arms buried under his pillow as he laid on his front, t-shirt pulled tight over the rest of his muscles. He looked younger like this, more his age, as if he wasn’t carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders. She brushed his curls back from his face and leaned down to press a kiss to his temple, loving the way he immediately leaned into her touch. “Go back to sleep.”

He hummed in agreement and she could tell he was already mostly back to sleep. She climbed out of his bed with a smile and made her way back into her room next door. She wondered if any of his siblings had noticed they were sleeping in each others beds yet. In a house full of detectives, she wouldn’t be surprised, even if hardly any of them ever came down that particular corridor. Sleeping in each others beds hadn’t been part of their initial discussion, but they quickly realised how much better they slept together rather than on their own. Her feelings hadn’t changed, she still felt safer with him closer, and she knew it settled his nerves knowing she wasn’t just going to be ripped away in the middle of the night.

She turned the shower on high before she stepped in and tried not to think about how long she had been stuck in the house. She couldn’t really complain, the manor had enough rooms and outdoor space, but the only other time she had spent three weeks straight in one place had been when she refused to tell Luthor’s men what they wanted to know.

***

Y/N looked up from her computer and pulled her headset off as someone knocked on her door. “You can come in.”

Dick walked in and immediately threw himself face first on her bed, Haley trotting in after him on her three legs. Y/N pushed her chair back from the desk and lifted the Pitbull puppy into her lap as the dog yipped happily at her. She scratched the puppy behind her ears as she waited for Dick to say whatever he had come to say.

“I hate my family.” He groaned into her duvet.

“You didn’t have to move back into the manor, me and Jay would have been fine.” She said, lifting Haley up and walking over to the bed. She clambered on while trying not to drop the puppy and sat cross legged next to Dick’s head.

He turned his face to the side so he could look at her. “If I’d have let Jason come back unsupervised, he would have shot someone by now, Tim would get even less sleep than normal, and Bruce would have had an aneurysm.”

“So what’s the problem today?” She said, failing to keep the smile off her face as Haley nipped at her finger for attention.

“Jason and Bruce just nearly got into a fist fight in the kitchen over that photo you gave Bruce last week, Jay doesn’t think Bruce is doing enough to keep you safe. Tim fell asleep in his cereal this morning and still went into work, and Damian is having more issues at school but hasn’t told Bruce and doesn’t want me to get involved.” Dick let out a long sigh. “So I’ve come to hide with you.”

She raised her eyebrows. “Who says I’m going to let you?”

“Me. Because I’m your best friend.” He whined like a child. “And you owe me for not telling he rest of the family that you haven’t slept in this bed all week.”

It was her turn to groan as she dropped back to lie next to him, making sure Haley was secure on her stomach.

“I take it you and Jay talked about what happened after the gala.” Dick’s eyes were full of mischief and she was half tempted to just not tell him anything.

“We did.” She chose to vaguely say, turning her attention back to Haley.

“Oh come on! Do you know how bored I am here? Give me something, please.” He sat up and plucked Haley out of her grip. The puppy seemed happy enough as she immediately started licking his chin.

“We talked, mainly about boundaries and things, and decided to take things slow.” She said, pushing herself up onto her elbows and pouting at having the puppy taken away from her.

“Sleeping together doesn’t seem to be taking things slow.” Dick raised his eyebrows.

She sat up and smacked his arm. “Get your mind out of the gutter, Grayson. We haven’t- We didn’t- Nothing has happened. We- uh- just figured out we sleep better together rather than alone.”

“I hadn’t thought about that.” He stared at her for a moment before he smiled again. “So, do I need to give the shovel talk to you or Jason? Because on one hand he’s dating my best friend, but on the other, you’re dating my resurrected little brother.”

“God, Dickie I don’t think you need to give anyone the shovel talk.” She groaned and laid back down again.

“Okay. One more question and then I’ll drop it?” He smiled softly.

She huffed. “One more.”

He chewed on the inside of his cheek, clearly thinking about how to phrase what he wanted to say. “Have you- have you talked about that night you met?”

“Briefly.” She said carefully, following suit and chewing on her lip. “He apologised. And after I explained what happened with Luthor when I met you, I could tell he meant it. He also talked me through most stuff about the pit. The stuff I didn’t already know I mean.”

He nodded, his blue eyes studying her closely. “That’s good.”

She hummed. “How long do you think I’m going to be stuck here?”

“Hopefully not much longer.” He sighed. “The Joker is a tricky bastard. Most of the other times we’ve recaptured him, it’s only because he wanted to be caught.”

“Jason’s not planning on bringing him in alive this time.” She said quietly.

“I know.” He matched her volume. “And I think he’s right. The Joker’s hurt too many people now, keeps hurting people no matter what we do.”

She nodded, not sure what to say to that.

“I should let you get back to work.” He gave her a half smile that didn’t quite reach his eyes.

She groaned. “I just want a nap.”

“Then nap.” Dick scooped Haley up into his arms and started walking back towards the door. “Just make sure you’re awake for dinner or Alfred will throw a fit.”

“Will do.” She watched him go and decided to flip a coin to see if she should sleep or get ahead on this months assignments.

***

Y/N was already half asleep by the time Jason climbed back through the window, even though it couldn’t have been more than half an hour since him and Dick signed off on patrol. She listened the familiar clicks as he started stripping himself of his helmet and suit, and blindly reached a hand out towards him once he was finished.

He chuckled under his breath but reached out and grabbed her hand before leaning down to press a kiss to the part of her head that was peaking out of the covers.

“’m cold.” She mumbled, still on the edge of sleep.

He hummed. “I know, let me just grab a quick shower and I’ll be right with you, sweetheart.”

“Be quick.” She said, turning over and burying herself further into the duvet. She had expected the heating in the manor to be better, but she supposed they were in the furthest corner and it must be hard to heat a building this size.

She must have started to drift off again because it seemed like barely a minute later that the mattress was dipping with Jason’s weight as he climbed into bed.

“C’mere then.” He said, opening his arms for her to slot into.

She wasted no time wrapping her arms around his chest and tangling her legs with his. He hissed slightly as her cold feet grazed his bare calves and she couldn’t help but laugh. She resisted the urge to slip her cold hands under his shirt, that was a boundary he had been very clear about and she wasn’t going to push him on it until he was ready.

She shifted closer to him and rested her head over his heart as his hand rubbed up and down her arm in an attempt to warm her up. “Did you always run so hot, or is that also something that came after?”

“After. Bruce thinks the pit reset my metabolism, which sent most of my body haywire. So, I run a few degrees hotter than I should, and it overcame all of the damage living on the streets did, so I can build muscle and I actually reached the height I was supposed to.” He said, nudging his head against the top of hers it a way that reminded her of a cat.

She leaned up and placed a kiss in the underside of his jaw, cracking an eye open to see the small smile that graced his face at the contact. “I know you have mixed feelings about it, but I for one am not sorry for those side effects.”

“No, those aren’t so bad.” He said softly. “Get some sleep.”

She hummed in agreement and got comfy against him again. “Goodnight, Jay.”

“Goodnight, Y/N.” He whispered into her hair.

Hello I really like your page. It's nice to see so much great Roy content and thoughts!

I was wondering your thoughts and opinions on Roy's relationship with Mia.

!! You're too sweet, tysm!

As for the ask:

Short answer? That's his little sister.

Long answer?

I'll be honest, I haven't seen all that many interactions between them in canon. I do have my own thoughts and feelings about them but, upon looking through some comics I've read, I haven't found many where they're actually talking. I have managed to find panels which show they *have* talked and have a good relationship in canon, but I've only seen them actually interact a few times and have definitely read more content with her and Connor, so if you have any reading recs I'd appreciate that :)

Because of this, my point is gonna be a lot more based on symbols and my own interpretation than actual sources, so some of my opinions may be disputed by canon content.

To start with, Roy's fiercely protective of Mia. Even from the beginning, he expressed his dislike of the thought of Mia becoming Speedy-

-because he knows first-hand just how detrimental that role can be to a child's mental health. Speedy, to him, meant a lot of bad things. I have a whole lotta thoughts on how the original sidekicks, particularly Roy and Dick, view becoming sidekicks, but I'll try and summarise. To Roy, Speedy meant losing any chance of a normal life. Keep in mind Roy was 13 when he became Speedy- he absolutely was not old enough to decide what he wanted to do with the rest of his life, and yet once you're *in* the hero business it's extremely difficult to leave.

And when Ollie first tells Roy that he's gonna make Mia Speedy, Roy's reaction is essentially that.

He's angry at Ollie for making Mia become Speedy, not because of "It's my name", it's not, Roy hasn't been Speedy in years at this point. He's angry because that is a seventeen year old who Ollie wants to throw in there, a seventeen year old who'll be making the choice to, in his eyes, throw away the rest of her life before she can even vote. And Roy's absolutely right about the world being different- Roy's teen years were spent in the gold and silver ages which were definitely a lot less dangerous than the 00s. And I think there's definitely an element in that fear of "look what being Speedy did to me" in Roy's fears. While it's likely Roy was an adult by the time Snowbirds happened, considering the amount of drugs he had experience with and the different connections he'd built it's safe to say that Roy was already an addict by the time he was Mia's age. But what I don't think Roy understands is that Speedy isn't that for her. She's already gone through the shit Roy's scared of her going through and more, having been a child prostitute and meth user by the time she was fifteen. To Mia, Roy isn't a cautionary tale but rather an inspiration- someone who'd gone through a similar situation to her and come out the other end.

After this, their relationship definitely progressed. Roy comes to trust Mia and her identity as Speedy, as well as letting her have things (that he kinda shouldn't have had in the first place, but all vigilantes are criminals it came free with the independent delivery of justice) that could help her as Speedy-

-and trusting her with Lian who he's always been fiercly protective over

And their relationship in the few times I have seen them together is incredibly sweet, with Mia reassuring Roy that he's a good dad and that it's not his fault that life gets in the way of his time with Lian.

So yeah. I really hope that they get to interact in the ongoing series because the Speedys should absolutely talk more. I think that Roy naturally has a great instinct with younger heroes, and he's absolutely someone Mia respects and looks up to.

Anyway I think Roy should take Mia and Connor to a theme park for sibling bonding time <3

#roy harper #arsenal #red arrow #mia dearden #speedy #sorry this took a while to answer! i didn't have much time to spend looking for panels most of today #tw drugs #tw child abuse #also i had to go to RoA again to get one the panels and almost cried #i will never talk about RoA because that comic makes me cry just thinking about it

Bachelorette season is starting up again! Y/N L/N is the new stunning face of the Bachelorette and so far the viewers feel that she’s favorable.

Of course, the honeymoon phase of the show will decrease episode by episode and someone is bound to crack really soon.

INTO THE LIVES OF THE BOYS: exclusive interviews with the eight remaining contestants

“What are you looking for in a partner?”

COLT GRICE: i’m honestly looking for someone who is willing to go through the ups and downs of life with me. i know that sounds basic but trust me, i know what it’s like to watch a marriage fall apart because one person wasn’t committed enough.

EREN YEAGER: you know, when i think of a partner, i think of someone i can jump out of a plane with. my partner and i should be able to feel the “breeze” of marriage and overcome everything together

“Do you have any past relationships?”

OYANKOPON: who hasn’t? i hope this isn’t some sort of trick question. there was a person i thought i’d marry but an unforeseen event helped me understand that they weren’t for me.

JEAN KIRSTEIN: oh yeah…too many. i was kind of a player in high school and i screwed around a lot in college but as i’ve gotten older, i realized that i want a family and a future.

“Eren you and Zeke look oddly alike. Why is that?”

EREN YEAGER: really? that blonde mop? i don’t really see it.

“What is your guilty pleasure?”

ARMIN ARLERT: i’m sort of into conspiracy theories. sometimes i feel bad because as bizarre as some are, they’re kind of believable.

PORCO GALLIARD: i won’t lie; i love ordering in. i eat healthy and everything yes but, boy, don’t i love sitting on my couch on a friday night and eating my favorite that just got delivered to me.

“How do you like to spend your free time?

CONNIE SPRINGER: i personally love spending time with my two younger siblings. i love living life through them.

REINER BRAUN: my niece is the funniest person i know. since the moment she was born, she’s brought a smile to my face. i love spending my free time with her!

A LITTLE BIRDIE TOLD ME…: dirt on the cast

“Rumor has it one of the contestants has a wife.”

We wouldn’t be surprised. 10 handsome men enter the show and none of them are married? That’s a little suspicious don’t you think? Colt and Reiner are definitely hubby material.

“Eren is passed around like a football 😞”

With those green eyes, the ladies are probably all over him…and he’s probably all over them too. You didn’t hear it from us though.”

“Jean and Eren don‘t get along”

An insider told us the two were throwing looks at each other. It probably has something to do with Eren stealing Jean’s girlfriend in highschool.

“I heard that jean and eren went to high school tg and that eren stole jean’s long term gf”

What did we say?

“Zeke has a crush on Y/N”

we have a crush on y/n too!

“Zeke has daddy kink”

Oh!😀

“I heard y/n f*cked zeke to get on the show”

Are we talking about the right Zeke?

“yn is just gonna be playing all the guys, she's there for vibes”

We love a good feminist! Why be on a show for marriage when you can be a show to play men? We love it.

That’s all for now! Tune in next week for more juicy details!

i didn’t hit all questions but i will use them next week’s post! some of these answers made me laugh lmao😭 imagine zeke falling for you (UNLESS👁️). i’ll definitely incorporate some of these rumors into the story :). i also forgot to introduce hitch and pieck, so i’ll try and integrate them into the next few chapters!

if you would like to vote again, press here. you don’t have to answer the written answer questions if you have already! just let me know that you’ve already answered! i’ll probably close the poll tmrw so i can finish up the chapter :)

tysm again for reading the bachelorette!

Day 9+ 11: Chaos at the campus

Background: after his murdertour with the league, Jason ended up in Amity Park and reunited with an old childhood friend. 2 years later, Jazz is in College and she and Jason took custody of her younger siblings. summary of previous events: I t's a nice day, and Jason take the kids to pick up Jazz. Scarecrow break in college. Jason stays with Ellie, and affected by the Gas. Bats to the rescue.

There's a young man in the corner, and he's holding a child. Nightwing walk in carefully, trying not to scare the man. He have seen scared parents doing terrible things while gassed. Sometimes trying to prevent their children from danger. Sometimes seeing the children themselves as the danger. There's no way to know where this one's gonna be.

He approaches carefully, but the man still hear him.

(It's like looking at a ghost. It's not him, it can't be, but there's a familiar scar on his chin and it's the same nose and when the man look up, Dick can see a familiar strawberry-red birth mark on his neck that was a good target as an older brother.)

It's not him. It's a man, not a child. He's alive. It's not even the same eye colour. But that stupid part in him always look at black-haired blue-eyes people and winder - what if?

“Wing? Wing, you need to protect her. He's here. He's here, he's going to hurt her, you need to save her. He's going to kill her, 'wing. He's going to hurt her- oh, god. No. Please no. He can't touch my baby don't let them touch my baby. Please take me, take me instead, please, no, she's too young, please, don't hurt her. 'Wing, he hurt me. He hurt me so bad, 'wing, please don't let him touch her, he can't do it to her…”

There's a long, quiet murmur coming out of the young man's mouth as he cradles the child in his arms.

The kid in his arms is young, probably four, maybe five years old. She's looking at the vigilant with observing eyes, her little hands hold a ghost-shaped Plushie.

A door slammed in the distance, and the man's eyes widened with terror.

He nearly throws the kid into Dick's hand.

“Save her, please,” his whispers are coherent again. “I'll hold him. He killed me. He killed me, wing, and it hurts. It still hurts, big bird. That clown can't touch her. Promise you won't let him touch her.”

And then the strange man is gone, and Dick is left with a toddler in his arms and echoes of a dead boy in his ears.

“This is Nightwing,” he opens his comm. “I'm compromised. Got some gas in my system, just had visual and auditory hallucinations. Possible tectaile as well. Requires backup at my location to confirm a package.”

He can hear his family in the comms, updates that Scarecrow was arrested. There are voices asking for clarification, asking for his location, but he can't find the words to explain.

There's a dead voice in his ears that he can't shake and a warm child in his arms that he's holding on to.

(There are tears, blocking his eyesight as he stares at the living child in his arms and remembers another child with blue eyes and black hair.)

He doesn't dare moving. Doesn't risk breaking this hallucination. He stays right where he is, unmoving, and hope this time would be different.

(Like it? I have more mini-fics in this au. And full size fics on ao3. please vote in my update poll! And the one for next week! Bc I try to work ahead LMAO)

BOO!

Haha, Did I Scare Ya?

Anyways I Noticed That You’re Looking For Some Silly Questions, So Your Wish Is Granted Mate!

A Simple One Of Course, What Are Your Thoughts/Opinions About One Of The Villains Such as The Interesting Twins?

JXJDB sure did

These guys, are by far my favorite villians, also im sucker for sibling dynamics

Wished they were taken more seriously, but won't deny some of their episode were my favorites by far (especially OP T.R.I.P). Less because of the gags they thrown them in, but rather we do finally see glimpses of their own personalities cause up until then there rlly wasnt much on them besides them failing and falling out a whole damn window all the time xxbdj honestly, that calls into question how resistant these guys are holy shit

The sister(if anyone got any name suggestions for them plz tell so I can steal them too/j), is fed UP, and I love her for it, cause with the amount of shit she's face i'd go fucking insane too. I vote we should give her gun, all her problems would be solved/j but actually, i enjoy that she's a little shit, impulsive, arrogant, etc, but i think it kinda stems from a fear of failure because how else would they've been known as father's bestest spies? Sector V had knocked down a pedestal, and that fucks with her head, but then their failures began to pile up and now she's becoming increasingly desperate to prove that she's still somehow #1– in turn she because implusive, impatient, etc. Sbe 100% cares for her brother, so at the same time she feels like she's dragging him down, it all piles on. Maybe a vaca would do her some good.

The brother, I absolutely adore him – tbh I adore both of them equally. He seems more like the younger of the two in terms of personality, we seem always following his sister's lead despite how irrational it could be. His loyalty and compassion to her is something that kinda pushes him to being my fav twin spot, cuz well im a sucker for good brother characters. And despite his more "softer" attuide compared to his sister's, they're both evil and flawed equally on the same level ‐ mo manipulation or pressure(well kind), nah-da. As the brother is just as implusive, selfish, and arrogant, but he hasn't let their failure get to his head just yet – in turn, he has more clearer head than his sister, so he ends becoming a voice of reason than a leader.

(Readmore cuz this is long jdbdb)

It's pretty popular theory that they're delightful, which is something I think about a LOT when it comes to their characters. And a bit more headcanon here: their non-delightful selves are still conscious, as to me(inspired heavily by my SS au with a friend), being delightful serves as just a filter for kids. Kinda like you feel the urge to chuck a plate, but because you're delightful, it's like a parasite keeping your hands folded in your lap, controlling your behaviors and words.

And they both don't like that their delightful-selves are fighting against old comrades because they were probably ex-KND operatives. perhaps got caught during a mission in Father's mansion, and faded to obscurity in KND history. Either that, or maybe they were father's first delightful experiments? Before the DCFDTL? Maybe that's why they aren't as insync as the DCFDTL, cuz you'd think them being related by blood would strength that bond.

Honestly, i just want an AU where they're happy:))

More headcanons:

Lesbian/Gay solidarity and hostility

They are the entire Evelyn Evelyn album(or not idk, havent listen to it in awhile)

If they ever do end up being undelightfulized, they'd have vastly different asthetics out of spite. Not sure which ones yet

They'd marathon Saturday morning cartoons to get the full childhood experience!!

They consider the DCFDTL sort like cousins, a familial connection is there at least

They're presumed missing, so they live alone in a house bought by Father. They're able to split the chores usually, but the Brother is the better cook between them, so the sister just does the dishes.

Alternatively they also live in Father's mansion, but because they keep falling out of windows at comical heights, they're in bed rest planning their next schemes, therefore more out the way

If they got turned into animals, they'd probably be panthers or owls idk

(Lord save me it's nearly 1am on a school might xmsb)

#six's thingies #KND #the interesting twins from beneath the mountain #TITFBTM #could say so much more abt them #but its nearly 1 and i got schoolzz #also not mentioned but im in love w their designs

What?

This is the second part. And because i cannot sleep i decided to post it now. Anyway, thank you for the vote, this account is very new and it's blown up, thank you, guys! ❤

You want to scream, or crying or doing something drastic but you can not find any strength in your body to do that, your body goes numb, your mind is blank. You loathed everyone around you, you hate your father because he doesn't care about you and believe in rumors from his courtier and a maid rather than you, you hate Daemon for not coming up with any excuses and you hate yourself for allowed Daemon into your chamber despite not doing anything. He only sits there and drink the wine.

"Your Grace," a voice startling you, you look up and see Larys Strong approaches you, he relies on his cane and bows to you,

"please have a seat, Lord Larys," you say, not bothering to look at him again from your book,

"are you upset, My Princess?" he asks, you almost rolling your eyes at his question,

"i'm not upset. I am angry, Lord Larys, i want to burn someone." you said lowly, the angrier you are the calmer your voice is,

"i was the one who suggested your marriage to His Grace." he finally says, you look at him want to know what exactly he means by it, "listen, Your Grace, your position as the Heir is not safe. Your father has younger sons, your half-brothers will challenge your claim in the future."

"that's not possible!" you close your book and look at him, Larys looks at you,

"it's possible, The Realm never has any female on the Iron Throne before. And with the Hightower being a Queen, there's no guarantee that she will not let your younger siblings challenge you."

"but why must i married to Daemon?" you ask, cannot find anything in your head to agree with Larys's reasoning,

"Prince Daemon is the only closer male relative you have apart from your siblings and father. And he doesn't have a wife now, if you marry him your claim to the Iron Throne will forever be strong and no one in their right minds can challenge you."

***

You sit in your chamber, a piece of parchment in your hand, a word 'Done' writing on it, you smirk before you burn it. After that, you look at your maid, Alina, she was from Pentos, you saved her life when you were ten, and since then she serves you. She's the one who has connection with Faceless Men and a knows a lot about Poison and Potion.

"thank you, Alina." you smile at her, after that, both of you go outside. Your mood recovers, it's so good to eliminate your enemy one by one, you actually don't want to cut Hightower's life line, but Alicent wants to challenged you, you are never in a forgiving side, your father is a weak King, he's a weak ruler, he lets the leeches close to him, he lets their decisions influenced him, but you are not your father, you grew up surrounded yourself by powerful women, your great-grandmother Alyssane, your Great-Grand Aunt Rhaena and Your Grandmother, Alyssa, there's no way you will let anyone come between you and the Iron Throne.

You can hear the scream from the Queen's chamber and you can see the member of the Kingsguard run outside, that's Criston Cole, he bumped into you,

"what happened?!" you ask, he bows to you,

"forgive me, Princess!" he says, all you want is to gauge his eyes or cut his hands, those hands were the one who killed your friend,

"The Princess asks you a Question, Ser!" Alina raises her voice a little bit, snapping at him,

"The Queen... The Queen's branch of the family are dead in their castle. Their castle was burned down last night."

You almost cannot stop your smile but you hold it together for appearances, your plan work, Otto Hightower and his family is dead, only the main branch you let alive, is an act of mercy on your side, Otto is the first, if Alicent has an appetite for something she cannot swallow, you will make sure to cut every help she can gets, and that's included killing many people, you don't care, you are not saint, if you are then you will opted to enter the Silent Sisters or become a Septa instead of the Queen.

"thank you, Ser Criston. Now go inform my father, i will go and check on the Queen."

You enter the bedchamber, her sight makes you almost feel guilty, but your feeling dissipated, if only she doesn't challenge your claim by wants to put her own son to the Iron Throne.

"Your Grace, are you ok?" you ask after see her slumps on the ground. You sitting in her side, ignoring your own dress will tainted by dirts, "where are the maids?! Why you let the Queen like this?!" you hear her sobbing, only give her a hug he desperately needs. After she calms down a little bit, you help her up and making her sit in the bed, "please drink water, Your Grace." you said, letting the maid feed her.

"what happened?!" you hear your father comes, Alicent hugs you closer, her body is shaking so hard, you only carress her locks, and rubbing her backs to comfort her,

"Father is here." you tell her, you can sensing your father's eyes in both of you, and see his wife's disheveled state,

"i hear the News." your father says, you get up and curtsying to him, your eyes find Daemon's, he only looks at you and says nothing,

"i'm going to check on my siblings." you inform your father and Alicent, and walk out with Alina in your side, you walk into your half siblings's chamber, to see Aegon and Helaena sit quietly with their septas, you sit with them,

"sister, is mother ok?" Aegon asks with a baby voice, you hug him which he returns, Aegon loves you, you are his favorite siblings, you tell the best stories and giving him the best sweet,

"Your mother is ok, my sweet, she's now with our father. Now, you will be a good boy and sits with me, yes?"

You find Aegon, Helaena and Aemond likeable and toreable, but not the same with their grandfather and their other side of fhe family. You playing with Aegon's hair and let the boy sleeps. After Alina informs their septas to look after them, you come out, only to find Daemon is there, with a Dark Sister in his hips.

"i want to speak with you." he says calmly, you roll your eyes at him and walk away, your guard, Ser Lukas is finally there with you, making you sigh in delight, sensing how safe you feel when he's there, "Y/N i want to speak with you."

"and i don't want to speak with you, isn't that clear?!" you finally say, not bothering to even look at him, you your hand in Ser Lukas's arms and both of you along with Alina walk away, before Daemon, with his stubborn attitude dragging you by your hands, "What the hell?!"

Ser Lukas draw his sword, Daemon growled at him, "i want to speak with my Wife, alone, and i don't mind if i must to kill you first." for once, you are scared of him, especially when his hand gripping yours so tightly you sure it will leave a mark there, Ser Lukas looks at you, you only nod, letting him know that you are good, Daemon drags you away from them, into another place, away from your maid and your personal guard,

"what do you want?!" you ask, stroking your hand, you hiss at the sensation and see that his grips really left a nasty purple mark there, he touches your hand, you glare at him,

"why you are so against this marriage, Y/N? Surely, marrying me is not that bad?" he asks after stroking your hand quietly and even blows it,

"marrying you is not that bad, Daemon, but you don't like me, that's the thing. How am i supposed to spend the rest of my life with someone who has his eyes on my sister?"

"i don't have eyes on your sister..." he denies and you know it, you sigh,

"please don't lie, i know the fact that you were the one who brings my sister into the pleasure house, and i know the exact reason why my father exiled you, you want to marry her."

Shocks written in his eyes, you know how to read people so well to the point that it hurts you. For example, you always see how fond your father for your younger sister, the same thing cannot find in his eyes when he looked at you, for him you are his Heir, for him, Rhaenyra is his daughter.

So this is part 2. I feel like the more i write this, there will be another chapter for it. Anyone wants part 3?

#daemon targaryen #rhaenyra icons #daemon x rhaenyra #queen rhaenyra #the house of the dragon #rhaenyra targaryen #daemon x reader #daemon au #alicent targaryen

What I know about the batman characters based solely off osmosis from the mutuals

Batman - seems sad but actually loves people so so much. Is trying to help all the time. Isn't always very good at it. The writers screw him over regularly. Let this man rest please. Against murder so struggles with everyone else in this post because they all want to commit murder to a certain degree.

Dick Grayson - ok so here's the thing my title was slightly a lie I did watch the '60s batman show I am well aquainted with it, so I know about this boy. An icon. A legend. A Good Boy. Trying his best. Good at riddles. Now all grown up and has an absolutely terrible outfit. Oldest Sibling tm.

Jason - he died??? He came back?? And decided the way to deal with that was Murder? He doesn't have a good relationship with Batman but actually he does? The fans voted to kill him????? He's the only one I can tell apart from the others because he has some white hair so he's actually recognisable??? Angsty and sad but apparently not like that anymore????? Seems to have wildly varying characterisation??????

Tim - I know next to nothing about this boy. No one says anything about him. Vagely sure he had a mental break and started killing people at some point but tbh that's like 90% of people on this list so who knows. Named after a duck so that's all I can think about when I see him. Short??? Is that canon????

Barbara - so when I was younger Barbara was batgirl and ran around a lot but now she's in a wheelchair so I'm assuming there was an accident of some sort that messed up her spine/legs. Librarian and does cool library stuff. The Voice Of Reason (absolute lie).

Stephanie - another batgirl??? Blonde??? The least psychologically damaged of all of them perhaps??? Or just really really good at hiding it???? Very much like Tim re not being talked about as much so I'm assuming her storyline has less drama (read: doesn't actually die and then go off the rails and kill everyone).

Duke - I barely know this man exists I'm not even sure if that's the correct name. I think he might be new. Again seems chill. But what do I know. The mutuals never talk about him.

Cassandra - banging name. Child assassin? Raised to be an assassin? Murder parents???? Doesn't want to murder??? Sad about it all??? Emo girl?????? All I know about her is vibes I'm so sorry but the vibes seem cool.

Damien - actual son of Batman, literally related to him. Doesn't know how contractions work. Weird little kid should probably learn to hyperfixate on dinosaurs or something it would do him good. Hates other people. Shorter than Tim. Also wants to commit murder.

I am convinced there's another? There's another batboy of some sort??? But I can't for the life of me remember????? I'm so sorry

#batman #batfam #that's the tag I think

Trunks vs Goten - Who is the more compelling character?

So anyone who reads my DBZ posts knows that Future Trunks is my fav DBZ character hands down. Gohan is 2nd place. Besides Gohan and Future Trunks, I do not acknowledge the other hybrids...until now.

Kid Trunks and Goten were done dirty in Z. I was watching their tournament fight recently and my heart ached at all the missed potential with these two. I know Kid Trunks at least has his future counterpart to get some street cred from but let's ignore Future Trunks for now. Which kid had the best story beats? Let me find out!

Hybrid Potential

Trunks is stronger than Goten but only marginally. So I believe Goten has more latent potential than Trunks. Despite being younger and only getting training from Chi Chi and then like a month of advanced training from Gohan, Goten is able to compete with Trunks who had better training facilities and a more dedicated training partner (although it's debatable how involved Vegeta was in Trunks' training after more reflection).

Relationship with Fathers

Trunks wins this hands down. We first got a taste of Vegeta's development in the Android saga with Future Trunks. But then we have the hug scene with Vegeta and Trunks in the buu saga. Vegeta has never held his son and it's tragic that he does so when he is about to sacrifice himself to atone for his sins. We see Trunks wanting to impress his dad and Trunks even has a moment where he declares he wants to be a better fighter than his dad so he can succeed where Vegeta failed in defeating Buu. We see funny moments at the end of Z and GT where Vegeta acts like a regular dad, threatening Trunks' allowance and chiding him for slacking. Goten's moments with Goku are lacking to say the least. The scenes they have are not really all that deep in the grand scheme of things. How does Goten feel about his dad being gone for most of his life? How does Goku feel about missing his son's life? The relationship between Goku and Goten is sadly very generic and hollow. All the amazing father moments were given to Gohan. Even when Goku leaves with Uub, Goten, along with Chi Chi, is completely shafted. Instead, the emotional moment is given to Pan. Poor Goten.

Sibling Relationship

Do I even need to explain?? Goten hands down! I love Gohan and Goten's relationship. I love how Goten sees his brother as a role model and you can feel how much they adore each other. Gohan is Goten's main masculine figure so Goten probably saw Gohan as a dad-like figure growing up too. Goten is also such as sweet baby brother. As for Trunks, I can't say the same. First, the age gap between him and Bulla is huge. He was already a grown teenager when she was just a toddler. Plus, she is a girl who shows no interest in fighting. I can't see these siblings being too close. She probably grew up functionally as an only child. I wonder if Trunks ever felt jealous of how good of a father Vegeta was to her? That is something I loved reading about in fanfictions in the past. We just don't see much interaction with Trunks and Bulla but that is expected given the circumstances and Bulla being a useless character anyway with little screentime.

Personality

This is hard. I personally find Kid Trunks more interesting as a kid character. Goten's personality is less entertaining. Trunks has the dominant personality so at times Goten just feels like his sidekick. However, Goten has an edge when things become serious. I blame a lot of Gotenks' attitude on Trunks. Trunks also presented himself as a bad influence on Goten. After Buu killed Chi Chi, Goten became serious. As soon as that boy entered the time chamber, he got down to business while Trunks was goofing off. Goten was taking the threat seriously until Trunks' attitude rubbed off on him. Sigh, poor Goten. I want to call it a tie...but I will give my vote to Trunks.

Relationship with Mothers

I will say that it is totally unfair how Chi Chi was demonized for wanting to protect Gohan but the same is not done when it is Goten and Trunks' turn to save the world. All of a sudden, the kids are poor babiesssss wahh :(

Anyway...I love how both moms changed after their sons were born. Before Trunks, Bulma was super immature and flighty. She became really admirable, and less annoying, after she became a mom. It was so cute the way she was always holding Trunks! As for Chi Chi, Goku's death really mellowed her out. Goten must have been a blessing for her, especially given his uncanny resemblance to Goku. I think Trunks helped with Bulma's development more while Goten had a greater symbolism of his dad living on. Goten would likely be a bit closer to his mom given she was his sole parent. Ugh, this is really hard to choose...but I will go with Goten. A lot of emphasis was placed on Trunks' relationship with his dad while for Goten, it was his mom. I think a lot of Bulma's development is centered around her relationship with Vegeta. For Chi Chi, she is highlighted more as a mom than a wife in my opinion. Which is understandable given Goku's high absenteeism rate.

Conclusion

To my pleasant surprise, I find myself favouring Goten over Trunks. I am shocked because I never cared much for Goten. However, I do think that Goten had so much potential to be a compelling character. So many topics could have been explored such as his relationship with his dad and his potential. Also, maybe Goten could have been the son who loved fighting and was the one to take up the mantle instead of Gohan??? The seeds were there to make this storyline happen. We could have ended Z with Goku training Goten alongside Uub. Ahh, the missed potential. As for Kid Trunks, I just can't care too much about him because he will always be overshadowed by Future Trunks. He can't compete.

This is my unexpected opinion! I am open to hearing other views.

A collaborative OC story with your partner, huh? Well it looks like YOUR PARTNER’S OC FROM THE SAME STORY IS HERE AS WELL!! SAY HELLO TO @insertsona’s LUCIFER!! He’s ALSO some kind of canine who goes by he/him!

...Oh. Ohhhhh boy. Fun fact, this was the first REALLY long submission I got! Cut time baybee :3

“oh god where do i start. uh. he has a toyhouse here -> https://toyhou.se/17736012.lucifer

lucifer is a character in my partner and i's collaborative oc story!!! hes the oldest brother of five hes aroace hes my poor little meow meow he even becomes a twitch streamer (canonly)((after he gets better))

his introduction to the story is through being spoken about negatively . he casts a shadow over his younger brothers narrative and leaves an aching hole in everyone else's. when he finally makes a physical appearance it only hurts.

hes a guy who spends so much time trying to forget the past that its arguably all he thinks about. a guy that holds on and doesnt let go even though he wishes he could. a guy that is so pathetic and yet so strong (to me.) a guy that despite his best efforts he is still just like his family and that every decision hes made linked back to how much he Cared. how even though he comes off as cold and distant below that he Cares. he cares so much and it Hurts and its killing him a little and it Scares him.

he just wants his family to be okay even if he cant be!!!! he wants the best for the people he loves even if that doesnt include him!!!!! he wants things to be okay for the others and hes so scared and . he doesnt know what to do or how he can fix anything and he cant bring himself to think about what already has happened and everything hurts so much and he Hates It and he wants to move on but god he Cant and hes still holding onto an old friendship even after everything even though he wants to hate that old friend and . your honor

he tries so hard to be strong he tries so hard to keep himself together but he is slowly falling apart . he cut out his own siblings in an act motivated by some twisted concept of protecting them . he cant handle change to the point that change breaks him . but he wants things to change. he wants things to get better. hes tired of this. but he cant handle change. hes tired, hes overworked, hes frustrated, hes falling apart, hes Afraid. hes Afraid, he is Afraid, He Is Afraid.”

Poor guy :[ Why should you vote for him?

“a vote for lucifer is a vote for pathetic men everywhere!!! hes got all the best dynamics . tragic siblings . tragic childhood friends . tragic losses . you name it he has it (tragic edition) . he has soo many issues hes like a wet paper towel . hes my son wet who has every disease he was born in a wet cardboard box all alone do you understand me

you should vote luci because i am literally obsessed with him and can go on a very long rant about him unprompted . i have a 243 song playlist for him that i still add more songs to . is this anything”

Everyone in the group was pretty upset with Glenn after he brought the new guy back. While you didn't exactly agree with Andrea shoving a gun in the new guys face, it made sense why she did it. The walkers, who were surprisingly calm for once, were now not so calm and were banging against the glass front of the store that the group was in.

Upon closer inspection of Rick, you realized that he was dressed up as a cop. Sense the begging of the apocalypse you hadn't seen a police officer, not one that was dressed up like one at least. After the loud series of events that led the cop straight to your group, you could only hope that that was the worst part of your day. Evidently, you were proven wrong when Merle started shooting from the rooftop at the dead.

"Oh no. Is that Dixon?" Andrea asks.

On the way up to where the idiot was, you could also hear yelling along with the shooting. You had known before this that Merle was pretty unstable. He was high most of the time and racist towards Morales , his family, Glenn, T-Dog, and Jacqui on multiple occasions. To say the least, you wished he would just die already.

"Man, you wasting bullets we ain't even got!" yelled T-Dog.

Then all hell broke loose. Merle was throwing racist insults towards Morales and T-Dog. Then Merle was on top of T-Dog, beating the ever-loving shit out of him.

"Merle, calm your crazy racist ass down!" you yelled, knowing that he most likely would either ignore the comment or he would target you. But eventually, he stops holding a pistol to T-Dog.

"Yeah! All right! We're gonna have ourselves a little powwow, huh? Talk about who's in charge. I vote for me. Anybody else? Huh? Democracy time, y'all. Show of hands, huh? All in favor? Huh? Come on. Let's see 'em. Oh, come on. All in favor? Yeah. That's good. Now that means I'm the boss, right? Yeah. Anybody else? Hmm? Anybody?" Merle says, trying to gain control of the group. Ultimately, most of the group was forced to raise their hand in favor, which was short-lived. Rick, not much sooner, hits Merle over the head, then handcuffs him to the roof.

"Girly tell Officer Friendly over here to let me go." Merle says, directing the conversation over to you.

"Listen Merle, I know that boss man put me in charge of you, but this whole racial tirade is over. If you can't learn how to work with the group, then you deserve to be handcuffed to a roof. Got it?" you told him, knowing that he would, in fact, not understand.

"You bitch didn' even deserve to be put in charge of me,'' Merle yelled at you. "Not even good enough to fuck."

You walked away. It took all of your will power to, but you did. Rick then went on about finding a way out of this mess that he and Glenn had gotten the group into.

Later while Glenn and Morales look in the sewers for a way out you go over to Rick to find him speaking to Andrea.

"Sorry for the gun in your face." Andera says apologizing to Rick.

"You did kinda deserve it though," you say quickly adding "no offence though."

"If I get us out, would that make up for it?" asks Rick.

"Not completely," you say.

"But it would be a start." adds Andrea after.

Andrea and Rick then talk about Andrea's gun, and how she doesn't know how to use it

"So you have no idea if your wife and son are alive?" you ask.

He then tells you about the picture albums and clothes that were taken from the house.

"You think I shouldn't be so hopeful." he says.

"It's not that," you say "I admire your hopefulness, but you weren't around for the start of this when people would just take anything that they could find."

You liked that he hadn't given up on his family, but you knew that if you weren't with your younger siblings when this started. You wouldn't have held hope for them to still be alive.

"I have to hold on to the hope that they still are," he says "because if they aren't, I wouldn't know what to do."

"The people who I still have are back at camp, my younger siblings." you tell him "I wouldn't know what to do either if they were gone."

When Glenn and Morales come back with the news that you all have been dreading. You feel more anxious to get out of there than before. So there the group was back standing on the rooftop.

“Okay so what’s the plan,” you ask no one in particular.

“You see that construction site, with the trucks?” Rick says pointing over to the abandoned construction site.

“Yeah, kinda hard to miss.” you say.

No sooner than an hour later you were in the street with Rick and Glenn. The smell of human remains was almost too much. While you thought Ricks idea was a little stupid no one else was coming up with any so you were stuck with it.

And when you thought shit couldn’t get any worse, you heard thunder. At this point there was no “turning back” you could only hope that it was a ways off from where the three of you were walking. But that hope was short lived when you felt the rain hit your skin. You could visibly see the guts washing off of you, you knew it was only a matter of time till one smelled you and took a bite.

“The smell's washing off.” Glenn says concerned, “Isn't it? Is it washing off?”

“No, it's not.” Rick says, but then he notices a geek walking towards him “Well, maybe.”

“Oh, shit,” you say after nearly being biten by one, “I knew this plan was stupid!”

“Run!” Rick yells as we all start running to the fence.

You take the metal pipe you brought along with you and start swinging it at the dead that come to close. You kill a few before you are able to make it to the fence.

Once the three of you are there you throw over your weapons and start climbing. Once Glenn finds the keys to the truck all three of you pile into the truck and leave.

“Oh my God. Oh my God. They're all over that place.” Glenn says freaking out.

“You need to draw them away. Those roll-up doors at the front of the store… That area? That's what I need cleared. Raise your friends. Tell them to get down there and be ready.” Rick explains.

“And I'm drawing the geeks away how? I… I missed that part.” asks Glenn.

“Noise.” Rick states.

“Okay and what do I do?” you ask Rick.

“I need you to stay with me to make sure they are all in the truck and safe,” Rick says, “can you do that?”

“Yeah, absolutely.” you tell him.

Soon enough Glenn and Rick find a red sports car. You and Glenn watch Ricks back while he hotwires the car.

“Hey, Sherif. Where did you learn how to hotwire? I thought you were a cop?” you enquire.

“That is a story for another time.” Rick says.

Once Rick is done and the car starts so does the alarm. You honestly forgot how loud things can be. Hiding from the dead meant you needed to be quiet and setting off car alarms was about as far away from quiet as you could get.

“Okay let's get back to camp.” says Glenn.

After Glenn distracts the geeks from the store, you and Rick go to pick up the rest of the group. You help them get in with all the supplies that they had ended up grabbing.

“Where is Merle?” you ask, nobody answers, “T where is he?”

“I dropped the damn key.” he tells you.

“Oh shit.” you say knowing that both Shane and Daryl were not going to be happy with you.

“Where’s Glenn?” Andrea asks after looking around.

“Best not to dwell on it. Merle got left behind.” says Moreles, “Nobody's gonna be sad he didn't come back… Except maybe Daryl.”

“Daryl?” Rick asks.

“His brother.” Morales tells him.

“He is gonna be so pissed off at me,” you say, “I told him that I would watch Merle and make sure he doesn’t get into trouble.”

“Who?” asks Rick, “His brother?”

“No the person in charge at camp,” you tell him, “he told me he didn’t feel comfortable with us taking him, but I pushed.”

Rick looks at you with a questioning gaze.

“I thought we needed the extra man-power.” you told him, it was a lie. You just wanted Merle away from the camp. Away from Jesse.

You then hear Glenns car speed past you.

“Whoo-Hoo!” Glenn yells.

“At least someone is having a good day.” says Morels.

On the way back to camp all you can think about is how mad Daryl is gonna be with you. Daryl might be the nicer one of the two Dixions, but that doesn’t mean that you two are friends. You would also have to explain to Jesse why Merle wasn’t with you and that conversation was not gonna go over smoothly. And then there's the whole concern of Shane telling you to watch Merle. You were dreading going back.

When you pulled into the camp though seeing your little family was worth it enough. Jesse was holding Gracie in his arms and you could see Adi standing a few feet back. You ran towards them prepared to squeeze the life out of them.

“How was the trip?” asked Jesse.

“Well, to say the least, it was eventful.” you tell him, “How was Adi?”

“She barely talked when you were gone.” he tells you.

When the most surprising thing happened. Carl ran up to Rick and started calling him dad. To you it was obvious that Shane and Lori were sleeping together, so this was gonna be awkward.

Later that night after everything was settled down with Rick rejoining his family you all sat next to the campfire.

Dale: Have you given any thought to Daryl Dixon? He won't be happy to hear his brother was left behind.

T-Dog: I'll tell him. I dropped the key. It's on me.

“No I was responsible for him,” you said, “I should tell him”

“I cuffed him. That makes it mine.” Rick tells the group, but mostly directs it at you and T-Dog.

“Guys, it's not a competition. I don't mean to bring race or sex into this, but it might sound better coming from a white man.” Glenn tells the group.

“I did what I did. Hell if I'm gonna hide from him.” says T-Dog.

“We could lie.” Amy suggests.

“Or tell the truth. Merle was out of control. Something had to be done or he'd have gotten us killed. Your husband did what was necessary. And if Merle got left behind, it is nobody's fault but Merle's.” Andera replied to her sister.

“And that's what we tell Daryl? I don't see a rational discussion to be had from that, do you? Word to the wise… We're gonna have our hands full when he gets back from his hunt.” Dale says to everyone.

“Dale is right Daryl is gonna be majorly pissed off.” you tell the group.

“I was scared and I ran. I'm not ashamed of it.” T-Dog says.

“We were all scared. We all ran. What's your point?” Andrea ratonaizes.

“I stopped long enough to chain that door. Staircase is narrow. Maybe half a dozen geeks can squeeze against it at any one time. It's not enough to break through that… Not that chain, not that padlock. My point… Dixon's alive and he's still up there, handcuffed on that roof. That's on us.” T-Dog says obviously feeling guilty about leaving Merle up there.

Later that night after most of the others went to bed you finally had time to talk with Jesse. You knew Jesse was gonna be upset with you but you had no idea how upset he truly was gonna be.

“I can’t believe that you would just leave him up on a roof.” Jesse snapped.

“You honestly believe that I would just leave him up there?” you ask him.

“Yeah, I do. You are always telling me to stop hanging out with him!” he yells at you.

“You know what Jesse, Merle was a no good drug addict. Not only was he sexist, he was also racist and a neo-Nazi!” you yell back at him, “You are goddamn right I didn’t want you hanging around him!”

“Just because Mom and Dad sent us down here to stay with you doesn’t mean you get to control my life!” he yells at you before storming off.

You couldn’t blame Jesse for wanting an older man to look up to, but you would be damned if that man would be Merle of all people.

The next morning was spent doing chores and after that teaching Adi how to read.

“Okay, we are gonna try again.” you tell her.

“Mm-k” Adi groaned.

“You know what? Why don’t we take a break?” you tell her after noticing her visible frustration.

“Go play with Carl and Sophia, but make sure you stay close to camp. Okay?” you ask her.

“Okay!” she says now excited she gets to skip your daily reading sesion.

“Is she having trouble learning?” asks Carol.

“Yeah but I think-” you start to explain but are interrupted by screaming.

“Mom?!” yells Carl.

“Carl?!” Lori yells back.

Everyone starts running to where the screaming was coming from. When you get there you see the obvious sign of distress. There is a walker eating a deer with two arrows in it. You realize that Adi is standing much too close to the walker for your liking so you pull her back. Then everyone with a weapon starts attacking it. Honestly it's pretty insuficiente because nobody is attacking the head yet. When Dale cuts the head off with an axe the commotion is over and it starts to calm.

“It’s the first one we've had up here,” says Dale, “they never come this far up the mountain.”

“Well, they're running out of food in the city, that's what.” Jim explains.

Then everyone hears noises coming from the woods. Knowing that there is a possibility of the noises coming from another geek you put Adi behind you knowing she will be safe. What comes out of the woods is objectively more scary than a walker, it's Daryl Dixion. The person you have been dreading talking to for the last 2 days.

“Son of a bitch. That's my deer! Look at it. All gnawed on by this… filthy, disease-bearing, motherless poxy bastard!” he exclaims before kicking the body.

You can already tell that this is gonna go down bad. He is already upset enough for the day excluding knowing about Merle.

“Calm down, son. That's not helping.” Dale tells Daryl.

“What do you know about it, old man? Why don't you take that stupid hat and go back to "on golden pond"? I've been tracking this deer for miles.” Daryl explains, “Gonna drag it back to camp, cook us up some venison. What do you think? Do you think we can cut around this chewed up part right here?”

“I would not risk that.” Shane tells Daryl, he is upset about that.

“That's a damn shame. I got some squirrel… about a dozen or so. That'll have to do.” Daryl says, then the head moves.

“Oh god.” Amy says, before throwing up in her mouth.

“Come on, people. What the hell?” Daryl shoots it with one of his arrows, “ It's gotta be the brain. Don't y'all know nothing?”

After that Rick tells Daryl about Merle. He takes it worse than you initially thought.

“Hold on. Let me process this. You're saying you handcuffed my brother to a roof and you left him there?!” Daryl yells at Rick.

“Yeah,” Rick simply says.

Then Daryl pulls a knife out on Rick, but before he is able to do any damage Shane puts him in a choke hold.

“Choke hold’s illegal.” Daryl tells Shane after struggling to get out from under him.

“You can file a complaint.” Shane responds to Daryl, “Come on, man. We’ll keep this up all day.”

“I'd like to have a calm discussion on this topic. Do you think we can manage that? Do you think we can manage that?” Rick asks Daryl who is currently under Shane.

“Hmm?” Shane asks Daryl.

“Mmm. Yeah.” Daryl decides and Shane let’s him go.

“What I did was not on a whim.” Rick explains, “Your brother does not work and play well with others.”

“It's not Rick's fault. I had the key. I dropped it.” T-Dog tells Daryl.

“Yeah, and I was supposed to be in charge of him.” you say owning up to both of yours mistakes.

“You couldn't pick it up?” He asks T-Dog.

“Well, I dropped it in a drain.” Daryl tells T-Dog.

“If it's supposed to make me feel better, it don't.” Daryl argued with T-Dog.

“Well, maybe this will. Look, I chained the door to the roof… So the geeks couldn't get at him… With a padlock. It's gotta count for something.” T-Dog says to Daryl to make himself look less guilty.

“Hell with all y'all! Just tell me where he is so that I can go get him.” Daryl yells at the group.

“He'll show you.” Lori says then looks back at Rick, “Isn't that right?”

“I'm going back.” Rick tells Daryl.

“If you're going so am I.” you tell Rick.

“(Y/N), no.” Jesse tells you.

“Listen, Merle was my responsibility.” you tell Jesse, “Shane didn’t even want Merle going, for this exact reason. He is a loose canon and I push for him.”

“That doesn’t mean you just get to leave Gracie.” Jesse tells you.

“I’m not leaving Gracie. Or Adi.” you tell him, “I fully intend to come back to camp.”

“(Y/N) it’s not safe,” he tells you, “I will go.”

“Absolutely not.” you tell him, “You are going to stay here with Gracie and Adi and keep them safe.”

“This is bullshit!” Jesse yells before storming off.

Later that day you were preparing to leave with Daryl and Rick.

“You know the way. You've been there before… In and out, no problem.” Rick says, trying to convince Glenn to come with us, “You said so yourself. It's not fair of me to ask… I know that, but I'd feel a lot better with you along. I know she would too.”

“That's just great. Now you're gonna risk four people, huh?” Shane asks, obviously upset about the whole ordeal.

“Five.” T-Dog says.

After much arguing with the rest of the group on why you should leave. Rick finally got his ass in the truck and drove off with the other 4 of you. When you finally arrived back to the city the group had a difficult decision to make.

“Merle first or guns?” Rick asks the group, more so towards Glenn.

“Merle! We ain't even having this conversation.” Daryl yells at the group.

“We are. You know the geography. It's your call.” he says to Glenn.

“Merle's closest. The guns would mean doubling back. Merle first.” Glenn tells the group.

So the group heads off towards the department store you were locked inside just yesterday, but when you reach the roof you see something unexpected. A hand. More specifically Merle's hand. Only Merle's hand.

“No!” yells, Daryl, “No! No!”

Rody Soul Propaganda

I was gonna let someone else make this, but there’s been no other posts so I will step up to the plate.

First and foremost, Rody Soul is one of the characters I have imprinted on the hardest. As an eldest child myself, I believe his character development and portrayal was perfect and he desperately deserves more attention in canon and manga. That being said, I will list below exactly what attributes I think make him a “best bnha character” qualifier, provide videos, and of course, share the link to vote for him once you inevitably decide that this boy needs to win.

He came from a pretty well-off, middle class family. So when his father disappeared and he was stuck living with his siblings, he could’ve easily complained about his lot in life and fallen apart. But he didn’t! We never see him bemoaning his financial problems, his main issues are with his father leaving and worrying over his siblings’ future

Even as a young boy we see he really loves and cares for his siblings, to the point where he’d rather spend time with them than alone. This not only works to explain his motives in the movie, but also is a great portrayal of eldest siblings. While we’re independent people, we grow up with our younger siblings for so long that there’s a special fondness and connection that can’t be replicated by anyone or anything.

Rody constantly brings up that ‘he isn’t tied to any sense of morality’ like Deku, and straight up refuses to listen to the police when they order him to stop running. He really said ‘fvck the police my family come first,’ and he’s so valid for that

As a ‘morally grey’ character his actions are built up very consistently throughout the movie; he steals his boss’s bike to get to his mission quicker, participates in a jewelry store heist, jumps on top of a bus to avoid paying the bus fare, and contacts the villains who are trying to destroy the world just so he can return the case and go back to his siblings. You’d think this would make him predictable and stale, but no; there’s actually a lot of complexity to his motivations and decisions

We especially see that in his final choice, to defy Flect Turn and help Deku instead of taking Flect Turn’s offer, of sparing Otheo (where his siblings live) in exchange for the disc. When he’s lying on the ground, barely conscious after just shutting down Flect Turn’s bombs, he asks “Was I as cool as you?” to Deku, revealing that protecting his siblings isn’t his only goal. He also wants to be someone his siblings can admire and look up to, the way he used to look up to his father. By risking his siblings’ lives, he didn’t act out of character. He was simply striving his hardest to exceed their expectations and be the best model for them he could be, which honestly made me shed a few tears when I realized it.

I haven’t even mentioned yet how queer-coded he is. Like this man is SO flamboyant and sly, he’s honestly a pleasure to watch just for his jokes and elegant animation. He’s constantly teasing and bantering with Deku throughout the film, and they have one of the most naturally pleasant and healthy dynamics I’ve seen in all of bnha. They bounce off each other so well which makes me wish he was canon even more

He has so much charm that Deku even chooses to save his random ass over completing his mission and returning to Endeavor, and this is DEKU we’re talking about. Mr. Does Everything by the Rules, Mr. Goodie Two Shoes, Mr. “Least Likely To End up On a Wanted List in a Foreign Country” DOES end up on a wanted list in a foreign country only because he decided to help Rody out

His quirk is the bird, Pino, who expresses his emotions constantly. It is literally impossible for him to lie as a result, which I know some people think “thats a lame quirk” but it works so well for building him up as a character and giving him more depth. We know when he’s putting on a mask in front of Deku because Pino is freaking out when he does, and it’s especially clever how he covers Pino’s mouth when talking to his boss. It shows how, at the start of the movie, Rody was in a state where he was constantly stifling his emotions and true desires in order to carve a better future for his siblings, which makes his future acts even more poignant.

He gives off closeted homeschooled kid vibes in a /pos way

Oh yeah did I also mention he knows how to pilot planes and helicopters? Because he does, that’s just how badass he is

Just watch these videos

Family Day Part One | Shadowhunters

FANDOM: Shadowhunters

PAIRING: Alec Lightwood x Magnus Bane

WORD COUNT: 1107

RATING: PG-13

POTENTIAL TRIGGERS: N/A

SUMMARY: Family Day at the Institute is the one day Alec always hates; mainly because his father is a politician with impossible standards for his children and an especially high disappointment for his eldest son. This year is troublesome, because not only is his little sister there, but he’s got an obvious crush on his roommate that will no doubt come into question. Until Isabelle decides that he and Magnus faking being together is the best course of action.

Family day.

Alec had stayed in the dorm for the better part of the morning, ignoring what little noise he could hear. Parents coming to see their kids and ask about them and see the classes and the campus in a more knowledgeable setting. Alec wasn't holding his breath. He was leaning back against the arm of the couch, silent and watching tv, when the door opened and Magnus came in, followed by Isabelle. Alec arched a brow as his sister looked less than put together. Which actually meant she was overly put together. “Izzy?”

“Mom and Dad are coming.” Izzy said quickly, fingers fiddling with the high collar of her midnight blue dress.

“What?!” Alec sat up, legs swinging off the couch as he watched his sister, blue eyes widening. The commotion was enough to get Magnus’ attention from where he was beginning to cook (the plan they’d made weeks ago when Family Day had been announced), and he turned towards the startled sound in Alec's voice.

“Alexander?” He asked, concern in his voice as the siblings looked at him. “What's wrong?”

Alec ran a hand over his face and through his hair. “Our parents are coming.”

“Why? I thought they basically didn’t talk to the two of you anymore.” Magnus felt thrown off for a moment.

“Dad did, which makes it hard to talk to mom. Because of him, she haven't said a word to me since I told them I was going to follow what I wanted.”

“And refusing to marry Lydia so publicly.” Isabelle replied, giving a proud little smile.

“Lydia wanted to marry someone else. I wasn't going to let our parents, no, our dad, take that from her.” Alec retorted, making Magnus smile.

“So why would they come here now?” Magnus asked, wanting to know.

“It probably has absolutely nothing to do with wanting to see us.” Alec assured. “Fifty dollars says it’s all just for show.” The resigned tone in his voice made Izzy bite her lip nervously.

“Dad must be going for re-election.” She added with a quiet sigh and a clearly resigned nod, moving to sit down on the couch next to Alec. Ebony hair fell over her shoulder as she ran slender fingers through her ponytail. “Which means he wants the younger age bracket votes.”

“And he thinks that using his own kids will fix that?” Magnus asked, clearly unhappy by the idea of it. “That's ridiculous!”

“It isn't so much about Izzy as it is putting on a show with me as his little puppet.” Alec said, his jaw tense as he stared at his hands.

“Pardon?” Magnus asked. “Why would one of you be more important than the other?”

“Making a show of supporting Alec after the hell dad caused last campaign would make him look better to younger voters given the current big issues.” Izzy answered. “When Alec came out last year, people supported him while our dad disowned him. It makes it hard for us to have a decent conversation with mom because of it.” She watched Magnus take in the information, his dark eyes pondering. When a spark lit in those pretty brown hues, she arched a brow. “What is going through that head of yours, Magnus?”

“Why not invite them for dinner?” Magnus asked, giving a smirk. “We can test his resolve to putting on a show.”

“IT would be nice to see how well his acting is,” Alec replied, chuckling.

“How exactly are we gonna do that? It’s not like Alec has a boyfriend.” Izzy countered, but as she said it, she gave a grin. “Oh my god, yes. Magnus, you could pretend to be Alec’s boyfriend.”

Having his initial idea derailed by the enthusiasm from his roommate’s sister, he blinked a little. “Uhm...Isabelle…”

“No, no, it’s perfect!” Izzy said, clapping a little. “I’ll invite them over, you two get ready!” That being said, she was up and out, in much better spirits than her arrival just minutes before. There was a terribly awkward silence between the young men as they stood there.

“Alec, I didn’t mean-”

“No, I know. Izzy kind of gets ideas and takes off with them.” Alec interrupted him, blushing a little even though he didn’t really like when Magnus called him Alec these days. Magnus calling him Alec usually meant that Magnus was uncomfortable, tired or trying to stop him from talking. And since they had been up long enough to be awake but not long enough to want a nap and Alec hadn’t been talking, it made it easy to figure out which option was most likely. And Magnus had every right to feel that way. Pretend to be boyfriends? Alec wasn’t even sure if he was Magnus’ type. How could that work when Alec was fairly certain that he loved the other man? “But, uhm, if it makes you uncomfortable, you don’t have-”

“Why would it make me uncomfortable?” It was Magnus’ turn to interrupt, tilting his head as he walked over to take Izzy’s place beside the raven haired man. “Alexander, if there is anything that would not make me uncomfortable, it’s showing your dad’s act up.” And it would help that being fake boyfriends would make it easy to steal kisses; at least while ALec’s parents were around. He could handle that….couldn’t he? “Besides, no one can throw a good dinner party like me.”

“Are you sure Cat wouldn’t mind?” Alec asked.

“Why would Cat…?” Magnus trailed off before shaking his head. “Oh, Alexander, darling, no. Catarina and I are just really good friends. We go way, way back.” he explained, resting a hand on Alec’s knee. “I’m sorry if we came across as more than that.”

“So you’re really okay with this? Pretending to be dating?”

“I mean, we’re already living together.” Magnus countered. “IF anyone could pull this off and make it look real, it’s us.”

Alec couldn't help but smile because Magnus was right. They could pull this off for a few days while his parents were in town. The real question was if they could go back to being just friends when the time came for his parents to go home. “What can I do to help get ready?”

“Let’s get dinner started.” Magnus said with a wink, leaning to kiss Alec’s cheek and get up. “Maybe if we have time, a few practice kisses.” He went to start back on prepping dinner, glad when Alec joined him with a blush on his cheeks. This was going to be a test Alec’s father couldn’t pass, Magnus would make sure of that.
