Back in Far Harbor gang… I get they probably didn’t want to extend a cutscene where the player had no control out too long, but I do wish in the Acadia meeting that you can eavesdrop on they brought up Nick 😭 but they do Not so here’s me making up scenarios. The Usual. 😏

#my art #described #fallout 4 #dima #fallout 4 dima #nick valentine #also like the idea that Nick & Dima have internal fans and when they get Super Emotional u just hear WRRRRRRRRRRRRRR WHDBDJ #also playing with the idea that po is a psyker/has a ‘sight’ equivalent that’s. essentially just in-game save-scumming LMAO #rly hoping that’s not an idea I’m accidentally stealing from someone. PLS lemme know if someone else has used that and I just Forgot 😭 #but ye essentially when faced with the more decisive moments. Po might just pass out and ‘experience’ all of the options - #- (akin to garnets future vision in SU I’d say!) and that helps him determine the best path forward #thought sometimes when it’s a smaller decision he doesn’t pass out. just experiences some light fatigue and then - #- ‘oh ya btw that trunk is trapped. yea you’ll get blowed up if you just open it.’ ‘…. well thanks for relaying that .0001 seconds before- #-I opened it PO.’ #but anyway. all that to say that’s what Nick’s referring to when he said po probably ‘saw’ it and then encouraged the path #po meanwhile is upstairs looking through faraday’s diary - I mean uhhhhhhhhhh the other secret stuff. def not his diary #anyway. DiMA’s not biological but there is an importance to him to him and Nick’s relationship. he’s stupid protective of Nick - #- who probably doesn’t appreciate being the ‘little’ brother all that much. but that’s just how DiMA’s rationalized their ‘roles’ #I just like em hehe

here is the question, the question is "would your muse consciously decide to let go of someone (a stranger)'s hand, if that someone slipped over the edge of a building/cliff/etc, and if they did not let go, they'd both go over the edge together?" would you muse let go if the options were 'we both die' or 'just one'. that's the question

#controversial: #in the heat of the moment and without time to find any alternatives and rapidly cascading toward the edge and #with only milliseconds to spare and with so much apology and so much guilt. tk would let go #(controversial: Tommy would actively Order him to let go ''that's an order'' style because she would want to protect him #from having to make that decision himself. he loves his captain. he would make it himself if he had to.) #but i do think there is space for self-preservation and in fact Demand for self-preservation in the role and TK is willing to die #trying to save someone and he is happy to and Would stay in a burning bus to give cpr to a woman underwater #he is very no holds barred. but there is a difference between 'backup has to be on the way' or 'just a little longer' and #the acute 'there is no time' and he cannot Buy time and he is not Strong enough and the options really are A or B #in that scenario. and that is a very bare bones scenario. in most versions of this scenario he would hold out and find an alternative #PS pls don't. pls no 'my muse flatly rejects the premise' answers #that's nice but ksjdflksj it rejects the premise of my question and my question. Is Entirely The Premise

Sooo... Help Wanted 2 is out... What are your opinions on it? Who do you think we are playing as? Personally I think we are playing as Cassie's dad but it's okay if you have different opinion!

(Also Happy birthday to Security Breach btw (What makes me feel very old is that Security Breach came out when I was 11... I'm almost 14 at this point...) )

I honestly am so lost right now. I’ve tried to make sense of the game but after what happened with ruin I’m scared to get anything wrong =w= personally I’d like to hear more of the Helpy lore :’> like what did that lil guy even do xD

#pix answers #fnaf #the brain fog is not really allowing to think too clearly about what’s happening to who is there or who isn’t #I can’t connect it to any character #see I’d assume it was Michael seeing as how it’s all ?? basically themed as the games he was the protagonist for #the missing kids are there too ? #and my brain keeps associating Helpy to CC because of the gas mask and the brain injury #IF that’s even a brain injury #it looks like he got a lobotomy but who knows #the fact that baby and lefty attack you when you’re torturing him too #like Elizabeth and Charlie protecting CC ? #well makes no sense yeah like I said I’m confused #pffft #y’all can feel free to send me your theories :> I like to hear everyone’s take on this #help wanted 2 spoilers #but pls be polite don’t be like Twitter =w= last time someone called me a cow for thinking MXES was related to William

The tragedy about the conflict of s3…

… Is that neither of them wanted it.

Okay, Neal kinda wanted it, I’m sure. Temptation. But he didn’t act on it, and he didn’t want it like this. Neal’s fault in this is that he could have walked away or said something at any point after, but he didn’t want to be in this situation. Mozzie forced him into it.

Peter sure as hell didn’t want it either. You can tell by how he either freezes up or get uncharacteristically emotional whenever it’s brought up. Esp by this point he genuinely cares deeply about Neal and wants him to get clean. The three things Peter loves most in the world are literally El, the law, and Neal at this point. He’s full on adopted this kid. He wants to be wrong, but he can’t compromise his belief in the laws and the system and the truth to not pursue it. He hates it, it takes so much out of him, and I think seeing Neal be hurt by his suspicions makes it all the worse, but this is Peter, finding the truth is who he is. S1 and 2 were slowly building the trust and relationship between them, and from Peter’s perspective, Neal may have just completely destroyed that. Thrown away everything he thought they had, and Peter’s attempts to help him go straight. But as much as it hurts him, he keeps the painting scrap out of evidence bc he wants to know first. He doesn’t want it to go on record and to have the whole Bureau come down on Neal. Despite himself he still wants to give the kid a modicum of chance—he also shows awareness that it could have been Mozzie or Alex.

And like I said above, Neal hates it, too. And not just being under suspicion again. At first, having Peter, the one person he completely trusts, accusing him, from his perspective, out of the blue after he just nearly got shot, after Peter just killed a man to protect him… Like that clearly just breaks his heart. Even during the opening interrogation, when he’s calmed down some, he’s still got that wounded look in his eyes—although I think he’s also clocking Peter’s unhappiness by that point bc it’s less offended and just sad. By that point he knows the treasure survived, but he does know he didn’t do it. He’s hurt by Peter’s suspicion of him but now he knows there’s a reason to be suspicious and he is hiding something.  But even after he finds out that Mozzie did it… Even from the onset, he’s not quite truly happy. And even though he knows it’s now justified, that there’s very possibly evidence connecting it to him/them… Even though he goes along at first… You can tell there’s something off. Old Neal would be much more excited, not hesitating and looking vaguely shell shocked. And I think when he finds out it was Mozzie and that Mozzie took it ‘for them,’ he feels like he has betrayed Peter. He gets visibly more awkward about deflecting, which I think is actually honest as opposed to a deception. He’s letting his real emotions dictate his behaviour—he’s genuinely hurt by Peter’s suspicion, he genuinely cares what Peter thinks, he’s genuinely uncomfortable with his new position. But even after all of it, Neal instantly realises that Peter is still protecting him by w/holding the painting scrap—and I think that realisation is the stepping stone for his character development the rest of the season, bc in that moment, he realises he hasn’t wholly lost Peter, and not in a ‘I can still play him way.’ In a ‘thank god he doesn’t hate me now’ way, bc Neal doesn’t want Peter to hate him, he never did, and he esp doesn’t now. As early as s1 he didn’t want to let him down, and now he feels like Peter’s completely cut him off—only to be given that one bit of hope for making things better. Which is what makes him believe in everything else.

Neither of them wanted to be put at odds like this.

#White Collar #pls gods someone talk to me about WC I'm DYING #I love that they didn't make Peter 100% insisting that Neal did it #he acknowledges that Mozzie or Alex could have but also correctly suspects that that would mean Neal's involved somehow #also those two scenes just kill me #Peter talking to El about it and the way he says that he can't involve the FBI bc if it's true they'll take Neal down #and then adds himself as an afterthought #and then when Mozzie and Neal are discussing it and realise Peter is avoiding involving the FBI Neal's immediate thought #is that Peter is still protecting him #Mozzie brushes it off by Neal's unconvinced by that which makes sense he saw Peter shoot a man to protect him #sure James never did that #anyway it's such an absolutely heartbreaking mess and I love them still caring for each other despite it #plus coming back to me working theory that all Neal truly wants deep down is loving parents… yeah this is smarting #like this is how you do an argument between these two they get mad they fight it's natural #but they love each other the first two seasons made them a full family #as may a parent and child can tell you you can fight and still express care #fight and not go too far #Peter who was sure that Neal was involved in the theft but kept the evidence off record anyway #would never indifferently shuffle Neal off to another handler or tell him he was just a criminal #this is the real Peter the Peter who would probably be angry and want space after something like that #and would struggle w/ it for a while but would NEVER tell Neal he only did it bc he was a criminal #bc THIS was done solely bc they were criminals #Adopt a Felon 101

A super-hero takes advantage of Dick and forces him to blow him. Dick of course hides what happens but Slade knows something's up. A while later he runs into said "hero" and the two battle. The man brags about "fucking Nightslut's mouth" which allows Slade to piece the whole thing together and separate his head from his shoulders. :)

A week later Dick receives a bloodied item belonging to the man. Everyone interprets it as Deathstroke threatening Dick and basically telling him he's next. Only Dick knows that Slade is telling him he is safe now.

(Their relationship is a secret, but it is the best secret Dick has ever kept.)

I love how everyone would get scared and tried to get Dick somewhere safe and Dick would be just sighing in love, thinking about his man 😂💕 Lemme just-

"Grayson, please!" Damian begged, closing his fists on his brother's sleeve. "This is a serious matter!"

"Nothing good ever comes from a man like Deathstroke sending others things." Tim looked close to crying. They all knew that nothing could stop Deathstroke if he was set on something. "And this is a bloodied weapon of a hero who got killed just a few days ago, wrapped in a gift paper!"

"Calm down-" Dick began, though he wasn't sure what to say.

He didn't want his family to see the packet, he didn't want them to know what was going between him and Slade. He especially didn't want them to know why exactly Slade sent him a belonging of a dead man, killed brutally with Deathstroke's own hands.

But now they all think that Slade's going to kill him and are desperate to keep Dick safe. Dick knew his family, knew he would act the same if it happened to one of his siblings. Maybe... maybe he should just tell them about their relationship? What's the worst that can happen...?

"Throw this thing out." Jason suddenly growled, yanking the weapon out of Dick's hand. "This damn bastard thinks he can scare us-"

"No! Give it back!"

Jason's eyes widened in shock, the bits of green that began to show there dissapearing. Dick grabbed the weapon back. On the one hand he didn't want to have anything that reminded him of that so-called hero, didn't want to think back to what the man did to him but it was a gift from Slade, it was the sign that Slade loves him and cares for him and is ready to kill everyone who hurt him. Dick should feel bad about it, about a man dying because of him but after what he was made to do...

A small part of him was happy because of it. A small part of him felt good and safe that that bastard won't hurt him or anyone else anymore.

A bad, already corrupted part of him fell even more in love with Slade.

"I'm not throwing it out." Dick said firmly.

"Dick, think rationally." Bruce hissed, taking a step closer. Damian still didn't let go of Dick's sleeve. "Wilson sent you a weapon, still in blood, that belonged to the man he killed. There wasn't any contract over his head, Wilson murdered him just like that and you can be next-"

"Calm down, Bruce! Slade won't hurt me!"

"And how the hell can you be so sure of that?" Jason demanded.

"Because we're dating!"

Oops. He didn't mean to say this. Not like that.

A silence fell over the room, everyone taking in the meaning of Dick's words. Dick considered just turning away, maybe going back to his apartment in Bludhaven? Everything was already too much. But then Damian tugged him closer, his face twisting in a little frown.

"Well." he said slowly. "I suppose you always could choose a less suitable suitor. Wilson's at least a good fighter and is capable of protecting you. You have my approval, Grayson."

Dick breathed out in relief and ran his fingers through his brother's hair, more to calm himself than anything else.

"Thank you, Dami." he murmured. "It means a lot."

"Good." the boy scoffed, making Dick smile.

"Um? Can we go back to the part where deadly mercenary sent you some kind of a trophy?" Tim prompted. He looked confused and uncomfortable, perhaps because he was standing the closest to Bruce who was frozen in shock. Jason was stilled as well but it looked like he was at least breathing. "Is that some creepy way of asserting dominance or something?"

"I'm not telling you that." Dick pressed his lips into a thin line. He already said too much anyway.

"You are aware that we'll find out anyway, right?" Jason unfroze to snarl. He looked less furious than before but he still cracked his knuckles in a nervous habit.

"I'm pretty sure you won't. Slade won't tell you anything and the only other person is already dead."

Dick felt drained. It was a really tiring couple of days and he just wanted to curl in his bed. Maybe cry a bit too if he got any tears left.

Damian curled his arms around Dick's waist at his words. Jason's mouth fell open. Tim's knees buckled a bit underneath him.

They didn't need to hear anything else. Whatever that man did to Dick to made Slade furious enough to tear him apart...

"Dick-"

Bruce marched forward.

"What did you do?" he demanded and Dick suddenly felt very grateful for his little brother holding him.

"I'm-" he began and his voice cracked. He couldn't help but to think back to that man, to what happened just a few weeks ago- maybe if he just-

"Bruce, what the fuck!" one of his brothers hissed but he wasn't sure which one.

"I didn't- he-"

It was my fault, my fault, I should fight more, I shouldn't let it happen, then he still would be alive-

"You don't have to say anything, Dick." Jason stepped between him and Bruce, stopping the older man from coming even closer to his brother. "We won't ask."

"Jason-" Bruce began warningly.

"I didn't want him to-" Dick couldn't think, couldn't breathe-

"Shh. Let's get you somewhere comfy, Dick." Tim threw his arm over his shoulder and slowly lead him towards the door. "We can watch a movie, huh?"

"He made me- I didn't want to-"

"Shh, it's okay. We'll get some snacks too. What do you think? Maybe we can convince Alfred to let us eat some of that sugary cereal he hides from you."

"I'll go get it!"

"Slade-" Dick tried again but he didn't know how to form words anymore, he just wanted to know that he's safe and he was always safe with Slade.

"I'll call him." Jason offered, already slipping his hand into Dick's pocket to fish out his phone. "He'll be there soon, try and realx for us, alright Dickie?"

Dick noded and let his brothers lead him towards the living room. Bruce stayed behind without another word, his fists clenching by his sides.

----

Alright, this got dark pretty quickly! 😂 Im gonna stop there because I won't be able to stop myself and its so long already fsgdvs but anyway Slade came over, watched a movie together with boys and when Dick went to sleep he went to have a talk with Bruce. They fought, obviously, yelled and argued but Bruce came back to his senses and apologized to Dick for blaming him when he was a victim. Dick forgives him obviously 🙄 and Slade takes his little bird home and reminds him that he'll always keep him safe 🤗

#sladick #my reply #my writing #also im sorry it took me so long to answer but im sick and cant focus on anything :> #jelly <3 #bruce is trying #but he focus too much on the fact that someone got killed #even if its someone who hurt his son #and his brothers had enough of that bullshit #they just worry about him #but hey if a mercenary wants to protect their brother theyre more than okay with that #maybe finally someone will take care of Dick #batbros #this has so many typos im so sorry 😂 #pls ignore them

Do you guys ever think about how (as far as we know) c!Tubbo arguably made the right choice by deciding to never open up to c!Ranboo... Because c!Ranboo (when Enderwalking) retains all his memories and works alongside c!Dream anyway. So although c!Tubbo doesn't know it, his paranoia is actually keeping him safe, because the less info c!Ranboo knows the less he has the ability to tell c!Dream... Not that c!Ranboo necessarily would, but it sucks that like... c!Tubbo probably beats himself up for not wanting to share anything with his sweet and loyal husband, not even knowing that sharing the wrong stray detail about c!Tommy could have caused something disastrous. Like c!Tubbo was right to be a closed book and that shit hurts to think about!!!

#i need Ranboo to explain cRanboo so bad. #one of the only things i care about anymore. pls just tell me why a version of cRanboo with all his memories WHICH BTW #HIS MEMORIES WOULD INCLUDE THE DISC FINALE. Why that version of cRanboo would willingly help cDream. #Even IF cDream went ''oh i wasnt really gonna kill Tubbo it was staged also its good that New Lmanberg was exploded by me'' #and even IF cRanboo wasnt told why the prison tnt needed to be set off & therefore didnt know hed be hurting cTommy #how could he work with someone who he knows has hurt cTubbo like that. If he genuinely cared. #and i think about that a LOT a lot bc like. We see all these glimpses of cRanboo just... not listening to what cTubbo is saying. #the warning about cWilbur in ho16 is a good example but also just about history and Lmanberg in general... cRanboo sort of gives off the #vibe that he thinks he knows better than cTubbo does. That he thinks he knows what cTubbo needs and what's best for him #but also that he like... idk i just have thought about it a lot and worryingly i think he could become similar to c!Technoblade eventually. #Not in the ''violence is the only universal language'' way but in the way of like ''as soon as someone doesnt agree w my ideals and feels #differently than I do they have lost my respect and protection until they Prove themself and Earn it back'' type deal. not NOW i dont think #cRanboo is like that NOW but... Everyone always says ''cRanboo grow a backbone'' but he DID... While enderwalking. #ew!Ranboo is him with a backbone and apparently the him with a backbone does not care if he hurts his loved ones. #like cRanboo is part of the problem of people brushing aside cTubbo's grief and pain like it doesnt matter. cRanboo helping cDream has the #same energy as cJack trying to kill cTommy. this sort of ''he'll get over it'' mentality about cTubbo that assumes that just because he HAS #in the past been able to ''bounce back'' from indescribable loss that means things dont bother him or he can do it easily #so like. i do believe cRanboo isnt unsalvageable. i think the parts of him WE see are very much just misguided and not intentionally #hurtful. but sometimes i think abt Ranboo saying he was gonna make it so no one could be an apologist for cRanboo and I think like #what Memory does ew!Ranboo regaun that suddenly makes it fine for him to hurt his loved ones? for ''Dream Is The Reason'' to completely #disappear for him? is cDream offering him something he cant refuse or god forbid does ew!Ranboo just AGREE with him? #that to me is like. Once i know that i can be at peace. thats like one of the only things I'll be genuinely upset if it isnt explained #bc when i tell you it has been haunting me for like a year. #ok sorry for the rant and sorry boobers if i messed up some lore details lol #doodle.txt

so two thoughts: one, dracula you wonderful bastard did you drug the alcohol? when did you have the time to even do that? but if he did then i’m sorry everyone but i love a smart and conniving king good for him.

two, the entry encompassing seward being attacked by a lunatic and mrs westenra finally kicking it and lucy’s ten million horrifying experiences ending with mina writing this cheery letter and having the time of her life and being completely oblivious (not her fault nobody is telling her anything) is deeply fucking funny.

give me your morally corrupt muses give me the muses who forgot how to trust anyone else—or never allowed themselves the privilege at all give me the damaged souls out there who don't think they're deserving of support or love

give me all the muses who gave up on humanity a long time ago

let ryuu try with them, okay?

he's not naive enough to believe every single person in the world is willing to change—and his notion of there being "good" in everyone isn't a case of optimism, but more of a case of "I believe everyone has the capacity to be good; it's just that everyone isn't willing to be."

he won't look at someone who commits atrocities and let them off the hook, no, but the thing is—? he's inclined to try to understand where they come from before anything else. because the way he sees it? everyone has a reason: an explanation—not an excuse—for how they behave

and if he can convince someone to see the error of their ways, pry into that trace of humanity still left in them, he won't hesitate—especially when it's clear to him that said person is the result of the world tearing them down one too many times...

maybe they just need one person on their side for a change: one person believing in them when no one else will
