Babysitting is great because the kids I babysit asked me if I like Minecraft and we talked about it and I ended up briefly explaining GeminiTay and these 6 and 9 year old boys now think this fantasy princess that hunts down her friends heads for fun is one of the top 15 coolest people

Gotta say I agree

20.10.23, friday

who needs a full night of sleep when you can comp that with a cup of instant coffee that has 2 cup’s worth of instant coffee powder, a double shot hazelnut cappuccino and a double espresso? the caffeine varieties are endless

things done today:

2h lecture

1h of coding

grocery store x2 (bc i’m dumb and impulse bought that hazelnut oat milk and I got so distracted with thinking abt the cappuccino I’d make once I got home that I forgot like 40% of the things I was actually supposed to get)

#also I’ve finally managed to get my espressos into that 23-25second timeframe (the sweet spot) #can’t say I’m a coffee snob when my daily first coffee is that monstrosity of ’’instant coffee with 2 cup’s worth of coffee’’ like that’s #actually a crime but it’s for the quick caffeine bc i’m too far gone with caffeine addiction #but i love espressos so finally making like actually good ones is a treat #bookblr #studyblr #booklr #aesthetic #books #study #reading #read #book #studyspo #october 2023 #2023

See i love that SVSSS and 2ha gets compared so much, cuz they got the similar master-disciple dynamic w/ completely opposite brands of Supportive Shizun. Becuz when their students are at the brink of death, CWN goes, “I’ll die with you,” and SQQ (the absolute fucking goated millenial that he is) goes, “LFG” and calls it a day. And i think that’s just beautiful.

#i think about SQQ in that chapter at least once every few days #becuz it’s just so crackhead #i was almost bawling when CWN went ‘I’m here to die with u’ #and SQQ took me out of my Sad so quick with one line i think i keeled over and stopped reading #SVSSS #2ha #chu wanning #shen qingqiu #2ha spoilers #svsss spoilers

contrary to popular belief, pac knows some things.

he knows that cellbit is his family.

he knows that cell is still resentful from alcatraz.

he knows that cellbit would never hurt him,

but he knows that cell would.

and if he’s being completely honest with himself, he knows that cellbit and cell are the same person.

and he knows that cell is going to kill him.

and he’s okay with that.

okay, maybe he’s not okay with it, he’s fucking terrified, but he’s accepted it. it’s inevitable, he knows nothing he does or says could change his fate now. he doesn’t know if he wants to change it.

.

he’s scared,

he’s alone,

but he’s come to peace with his impeding death.

maybe it’s his time, maybe cell knows best. maybe this is the best course of action. pac trusts his judgement.

Sicktember 23 - Alt 3, Pounding Headache

Thief squirmed in their chair. They were tied up, but they were scarcely aware of it. All that mattered in the world was the throbbing pain in their forehead. They would have given up a lot to be able to rub it, even if that would have done nothing.

“Is it possible to remove that light ?” they whispered, closing tightly their eyes.

Villain gave them a cold stare. Without a word, they slowly pushed a button on the lamp, increasing the brightness as much as they could. Thief grimaced. They heard their heart pound inside their temples.

“First, explain why you failed to get the files I asked for.”

‘I didn't fail !” they protested weakly. “I took everything there was in the safe. It’s not my fault it wasn’t at the place you’ve told me to steal.”

“I wonder,” whispered Villain. “Unless someone was warned before you stole anything. I have to admit, you’re much too close to Hero than I’m comfortable with.”

“Close ? They always send me to prison !”

“You always escape. And they never hurt you.”

“Well, they’re a hero. I don’t think they’re going to punch you if you don’t begin first.”

“So why was the safe empty ?”

Villain had suddenly raised their voice. Thief moaned in protest.

“I don’t know !” they squeaked.

“Well,” grunted Villain, “now my plans are canceled, I can be patient. You’ll stay tied up until you spit out the truth. I have no indulgence for traitors.”

Thief just hummed in answer. It was harder and harder to focus on the conversation. They let themself slump into the chair, leaning their head back to try to relieve the pain. Villain hit the table with their fist, which made them start.

“Dammit, what’s wrong with you ? You should pay a little more attention when I’m threatening you! Do you understand your position?”

“Yep. Sitting in a chair.”

They didn’t even mean to be sarcastic; they were half-conscious by now and were just babbling words. Villain took it very personally, though. Their gloved hand slapped Thief on the face, but they barely felt it. It was nearly a welcome distraction from the other ache. Villain grabbed their chin and demanded once more:

“What’s wrong with you ?”

“Migraine.”

“Really.”

Villain let go. Thief heard them stepping away, then there was a click. One second after a radio burst into song. Thief gritted their teeth.

“Petty jerk,” they mumbled.

It was like someone had set fire inside their head now. Maybe they screamed a little - bubbles of light exploded behind their lids – there were shouting and loud noises everywhere - and they passed out.

It was not for long, though. The first thing they were conscious of was the silence. Blissful, merciful silence. Something – someone – was tugging gently at their wrists. They dared to take a look. The lamp was switched off. Inside the barely lit room, they could see bodies laid down everywhere. Villain themself was on the floor, unconscious.

Well, that took a turn.

With a definitive snap, their hands were cut free. They tried to push themself back up, but their skull was too heavy, their limbs too weak. They blinked and watched Hero becoming visible again, without moving an inch.

“That’s really weird to see you still like that,” the latter said, keeping their voice low. “It’s because of Villain?”

“Nah, it just happens sometimes. You were there all along ?”

“Yep. I’ve followed you.”

“I’m going back to prison, then.”

“I don’t think I’m going to bother with you this time. After all, you’ve just stolen worthless sheets of paper under coercion. I don’t think that counts.”

“They’ve turned against me so fast.”

“Color me surprised. I’ve already told you to stay away from them. But I’ll have all the time in the world to lecture you...”

They gently lifted Thief up, laid them down on a couch, and unfolded their scarf on their closed eyes to keep them from the light.

“...Later.”

me after attempting to get back into sims and realizing i had a lot more to do than play the game

#hi everyone #I’m going around hugging you all #okay now that we are gathered here today #i will simply acknowledge that i have been gone for a very long time and then also acknowledge that maybe it was for the best #i relied on sims to be my only creative activity even if i tried to write a book at the same time #and also. i prioritized sims over real life responsibilities. that’s just a deadly combination lol #but I recently noticed I just replaced sims with Netflix. with YouTube. with anything that gave me quick dopamine #literally became addicted in a sense. still am but I’ve been cut cold turkey from most everything #I get off work and go. okay I’ve done the dishes and the laundry……..I could read or write or bake…. #I try to write and sometimes i get a good hour #then I read for a few hours and then get tired of it #and I made cookies Tuesday so I’m waiting for those to be gone before baking again #I’m just so pitiful that I feel BORED and don’t know what to do #so I said….. okay what if I do sims for an hour. #I downloaded some new cc Tuesday and tried to play yesterday #y’all ……………….. I can’t find the energy anymore to set up elaborate scenes and pose my sims and plan posts #I said wow… this is boring without my intervention and fake story #I said wow…….. all this for what? for tumblr? yes I created cool things and provided joy. but is that inherintly important compared to my #own joy? my own everyday activities I should be doing? #y’all I do not leave the house unless we got out to eat or shop or travel to our parents #.. I have little desire to. I’m trying to find that desire #but my husband is busy with grad school and work and I don’t want to do anything by myself #I’ve found myself in one heck of a slump #I didn’t want to be human for awhile. just had no desires no interests no ambitions #I was slacking off SO HARD at work. I just had no drive to do well #I’m still working on it. I’m still trying to get caught up. I’m still trying to force myself to move every day. #but I am struggling y’all. and I can tell you that sims… sims isn’t helping rn but I want it to so bad. I want to get back into it #I didn’t mean to disappear on everyone. I got married and then life got busy and then I fell into this hole of nothing #I didn’t even WANT to crawl my way out. but my husband has helped a lot. I feel like such a child!!!! #I reached max tags. 🙃 bye love you all. till next time

Ppl will say fanon v canon doesn’t matter and it’s all jokes and I’m sooooo close to going sure sometimes and then I remember y’all removed a major role of one of the if not THEE most prominent black character in Bruce’s story who was created a whole decade before tim and gave it to tim based off a run where he literally handed the role back! Like IN THE COMIC Tim was CEO in name only and handed it back to Lucius relieved when he didn’t need to front anymore like.

#also if I said y’all took a lot of what tam does and her character traits and handed them off to tim…. #like from that run #it’s crazy bc I always say that’s like the only comic tim stans read #but if that’s true the racism isn’t even covert anymore el oh el #tim Drake #it’s actually about him this time #I’m not gonna clog Lucius or tam tags any further tho #oh and on the tam note #her quick thing and sheer insanity was seen as naivety from tim even tho it saved his ass quite a few times #mainly that Vicki vale shit #which is hung up on LUCIUS’ wall #bc it’s HIS office #bc HE is the CEO. #I think it’s so funny how Bruce quest was like unreliable narrator knows their unreliable and thinks that knowledge means that everything t #they say is true bc they acknowledge that maybe they’re not thinking healthily #which is so fucking fun #but y’all go ‘yesss this is Tim!’ #like no! it’s not! and tim knows that! and he’s too high strung to be pissed or scared about it! #AND THAT IS WHAT SHOULDVE HAPPENED NEXT #IK cómics don’t like to acknowledge that kinda trauma and shit #but something going deep into Tim’s mental state at the time and how he was impacted in daily and personal life #(bc instead of black characters being written out and ignored I’m choosing to believe tam distanced herself bc he was such a Dick) #Like that would’ve been craaaazy #like even tims lack luster reaction at seeing Kon in Paris after he was DEAD #And then later having the emotional reaction like he really kept that shit on the backburner #but noooo he’s so badass and a killer 🥺 #anyways justice for the fox family #at least for Lucius like he and cyborg are in the same boat for me #where they’ve been around for so long and have been so important (cyborg on a waaaay wider scale) #that the fact that they don’t get their flowers in favor of making shit up for tim is SICK

Sorry if this is an invasive question, but have you read any specific fics and/or would be comfortable sharing which?

I don’t have an ao3 account so I don’t have a way to keep track of what I have read. But it’s really not that many. Probably like 10-15 in total.

Not really the person to ask for refs as ive barely read any ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

#I pretty much only read em if it was posted by someone I’m following on tumblr #it’s gotta be peer reviewed by either someone recommending it or from someone I already trust has taste #I just don’t have the time or energy to read stuff at random #that doesn’t mean you can’t send me a suggestion but I can’t promise that I’ll get to it #also you guys can message me my dms should be open #if you’d rather do that #I am terrible at responding tho SORRY… #anyway.. if you want to make a rec but are worried about the content #I’ve been online since I was 4 there’s not much out there that could shock me at this point tbh #<- actually I might as well mention?? if anyone. hasn’t bothered to check my main yet. im 23. #alright who is still reading this far uhhh I need to say something uhhhhhhh what can I say #quick say something #UHHHH #[redacted] #non voice post #asks #ask

Cyborg 009 vs Devilman is so funny cuz it brought us the best Akira design and also one of the worst Ryo designs

I mean, okay, maybe Ryo doesn’t exactly look bad per se, but it’s so strange to see him consistently drawn to look much more older and jaded than Akira. And since Ryo canonically likes Akira in almost every incarnation that just makes it kinda weird?

Especially since they’re supposed to be around the same age and in Nagai’s art they were intentionally given essentially the same silhouette.

Like try to guess who is who here LOL

But yeah as someone who designs characters as a hobby I just found it to be an… interesting choice? Like there’s no way that can accidentally happen, it was intentional.

Though at the same time I haven’t watched this thing so if there’s a canon explanation for this choice (like if Ryo is older than Akira in this incarnation or something) then I’ll shut my mouth haha

#devilman #akira fudo #ryo asuka #cyborg 009 vs devilman #I should specify I am NOT shitting on it or insulting people who like the movie/designs #These are just my silly thoughts ahaha #ya know ya know #I won’t shit on something I haven’t even watched #I’m not a fan of designs that make Ryo look more mature than he is general tbh #If you read the manga you’ll very quickly realize that Ryo is smart but also emotionally immature and even a bit quick to flare up at times #he IS a teenage boy #So incarnations that make him more ‘adult’ by giving him a more grown design and a deeper voice and a more cold demeanor -> #just irk me a bit #Like save the maturity for the Satan design!! As a human Ryo is kinda a mess!!

I have a hot take about Giyuu but I am. Frightened

#not that I think everyone is mischaracterizing or that I think I’m the definitive authority on Giyuu #because I haven’t even read the manga so I ASBOLUTELY am not #but I just think people (me) are so quick to like. babygirlify everything he does and make him such a cringefail little loser #that they forget he’s. kind of mean lol. he has a temper!!!! #I for one love his temper I think it’s hilarious and incredibly valid and SUPER fun to write #and I know most of it is probably either unintentional or like. a cover for his tender soft boy heart or something #but like. LET MY BOY BE A BITCH!!!! it’s FUNNY and he DESERVES IT #I have examples but idk I’m. afraid #so it’s staying in the tags for now #SOFTLAUNCHING MY GIYUU HOT TAKE #postcards from stupid town
