#send me some asks besties

[phantom-0-writer]

I actually thought of this prompt like forever ago and i rly wanted to write a whole story for it but i couldn't think of a plot that would stick to it and make sense without adding too many outside elements and in my opinion over saturating the story. BUT i do have a bunch of scenes of danny and damian in my head about this also also some danny and other batfam members.

So anyways your order has been delivered...

original prompt: Gotham Academy's Mentorship Program

scene two: tim's arch nemesis

scene 01: damian's not-so-very-bad day

“Father, you wanted to speak with me.” Damian said, trugging into his Father’s study late into the afternoon per Pennyworth’s behest. 

Father looked up from his work at Damian’s arrival, Drake gave him a look of annoyance that Damian returned with a sneer. “Damian.” Father greeted as he reached Father’s work station. “I spoke with your principal earlier today.” Damian huffed and crossed his arms in defiance at whatever accusation he was about to be handed, “Put your frown away, you're not in trouble.” Father chuckled lightly. 

Damian frowned. He was not a child, he did not need to be treated like one. 

“There’s a mentorship program at your school.” Father started, Damian raised an intrigued brow at him. 

Perhaps Father had succeeded in seeing his potential, “Well I suppose I wouldn’t mind mentoring one of the many underlings at the so-called academy.” Damian sighed, letting his arms fall to his side, as he looked up at his Father. 

Father blinked at him, processing what he had said, then glanced at Drake who looked like a fraying rope length away from bursting into laughter. “The mentorship program… it’s for you.” Father tried hesitantly. 

“Yes.” Damian nodded in understanding. 

There was an uncomfortable silence from Father.

“He means that you're the one getting mentored.” Drake laughed at him, shoulders shaking. 

Damian turned to Father. But the denial never came. “What!” Damian couldn’t help scream in outrage. “You want me to get mentored by some hillbilly civilian who can't tell a katana from a wakizashi?” He slammed his hands on Father’s table. 

Father looked at him with disapproval, but said nothing, not caring enough to discipline Damian. 

“Hillbilly civilian.” Drake croaked from the corner of the room, draping himself dramatically over one of the side sofas. 

“You’re to meet him first thing tomorrow when you get to school. Here’s his student profile, if you're interested.” Father handed him a singular paper. 

“Father I do not need-” 

“It’s already been arranged Damian, atleast give it a try.” Father said with a sigh, picking up his files again in a silent dismissal of Damian. 

The paper crumpled slightly as Damian stormed to his room.  

Daniel James Fenton. 

“Let’s see how long you last.” Damian eyed the picture of the smiling teen. 

---

“Have a good day at school Masters Tim, Thomas, and Damian.” Pennyworth bid, as they all got out of the car. 

“Later, Alfred.” Thomas waved at the butler as he drove off. 

They all walked in the same direction to enter their classrooms, when Drake stopped him in his path. “Ohoho, and where do you think you’re going Damian?” he asked cheekily.

“Tsk.” He was hoping to be able to make it to his class before the others noticed, then continue to evade the principal and other faculty if need be required. To be foiled so early into his plan, furthermore by Drake, was humiliating. 

“Aren’t you supposed to be in the principal’s office?” Drake continued to smother his victory over Damian. 

“I was just on my way.” He huffed, turning around annoyed. Drake and Thomas snickered as he retreated. 

Damian knocked on the familiar oak doors. “Come in.” Mr. Carson called from the other side. Damian entered, and plopped down on the same chair he sat in every time he had been sent here. “Ah Damian. Goodmorning.” He waited for a reply, but when he realized he wouldn’t be getting one he continued on, “Mr. Fenton should be here any minute, but I’m glad you were able to come here on your own accord.” Mr. Carson talked as he hung up his jacket and took a seat at his chair. 

Damian could only watch the seconds tick by as he sat in that office. He wondered absentmindedly if Fenton didn’t show up would he be free. The knock at the door decimated all hopes Damian had for that. 

“Ah, that must be Mr. Fenton.” Mr. Carson mused out loud, “Come in.” 

Fenton entered the room hesitantly, greeting Mr. Carson with a small smile. Fenton was a scholarship student and held reasonable grades so his intellect was not to be underestimated, though often simply being able to score well on tests did not translate to having adequate life skills. Fenton was taller than Drake, but still average, dark hair, tanned skin, gray-blue eyes. When Damian’s supposed mentor looked at Damian for the first time since he had entered the room, Damian couldn’t help but feel like he was caught in a stare off with a beast. 

The way Fenton examined his surroundings reminded Damian of the League of Assassins. Careful, analytical and tactical. All things Damian had excelled in. But there was something different about Fenton than what Damian had often seen in the League. His eyes were softer than those that had trained Damian. Damian couldn’t understand why his eyes looked like that. 

Fenton smiled at him in a way that was likely meant to be kind, “Hi, you must be Damian. I’m Danny.” He stuck out his hand for Damian to shake. 

Damian did not take the hand, instead he turned to principal Carson, “When can I leave?” He asked board, subtly eying Fenton’s reaction in his peripheral vision. 

“We have to iron out the finer details and the both of you will be free to go until we see each other for our weekly check in every Friday.” Principal Carson started, “Mr. Fenton why don’t you take a seat. 

Undeterred by Damian’s lack of interest, Fenton took a seat. Mr. Carson explained to Fenton his responsibilities as a mentor and what would be expected of him, Fenton in turn nodded along attentively. After his long explanation of the whole program the both of them were free from his office, and excused from classes until lunch to “get to know each other better”.

Damian translated that to having until lunch to show Fenton that he was out of his depth and have him running with his tail between his legs. 

“So…” Fenton drawled trying to buy time to think of something adequate to say no doubt, “How about we go to the library to hang out?” Fenton offered. 

Damian simply huffed in agreement as they made their way to a pair of sofas tucked between the many rows of books. 

“So, Damian, uh, what do you like to do after school?” Fenton asked unoriginally. 

Damian turned so he could meet Fenton eye-to-eye. “Train.” He said honestly. If he plans on scaring him off then leaning into the superficial things he learned in the League would do him well. 

“Oh, you do sports?” Fenton asked inquisitively. Damian was momentarily thrown off by his show of genuine interest in his personal life, but Damian quickly collected himself. Fenton was merely putting on an act to get him to open up, Damian would be a fool to fall for it. 

“No.” He scoffed at the thought of sports, “I train for battle,” He made sure to put as much confidence as he could in his voice. Oftentimes in the past when he had told his peers of his activities they had brushed him off and laughed at him, Damian wondered if Fenton would have a similar reaction. 

“Hardcore.” Fenton nodded in awe.

Damian blinked, “You believe me?” He found himself whispering. 

“Well, yeah.” Fenton responded as if it were the most obvious thing, in fact, he seemed confused as Damian’s bafflement. 

Damian quickly collected himself, “Well of course you should believe me it’s the truth, I’m a highly skilled blade user.” He nodded to himself. 

“Blade user, huh? Do you prefer katanas or wakizashi? Or a classic long sword maybe.” Fenton asked eying Damian as if it would help him find the correct answer. 

“Katanas obviously.” Damian scoffed, “They’re incredibly balanced, strong, and give you incredible control over your attacks. Wakizashi are also a good option if you prefer close combat and if you’re fighting in an area with a lot of obstacles.” Fenton hummed and nodded at his explanation, and Damian found himself continuing, “Long swords are originally from the Bavaria and Switzerland regions during the medieval times-”

how did you discover natsumes yuujinchou?

it's all @uovoc's fault!! they told me about the anime while they were watching it for the first time, in such glowing terms i had to know what all the fuss was about. and then i mainlined the whole thing in like two weeks and spedran the entire spectrum of human emotions AND somehow came out the other side obsessed with the exorcists, which i do not think they were expecting when they recommended it to me. such is life.

#i remember a conversation we had after i finished the show and had been rbing an insane amount of exorcist content and they were like #sooo.....the exorcists. what's up with that #and i was just like i don't KNOWWWW don't look at me i got fixated on the wrong blorbos I'M SORRY #but like what else am i supposed to do. speedrun the entire spectrum of human emotions every damn day of my life? #no. i can't do that. i can't think about natsume takashi all the time or i will collapse in on myself #i've been rereading some of the manga volumes right before i fall asleep and it's so bad. i cry so much #like maybe don't do that right before sleeping bestie #i can't remember now...have you watched/read natsume yuujinchou? #if not i do recommend it. it will destroy you but in the best possible way #asks #not anon #thank you for the ask babe miss you <33333 #i keep wanting to send you actual physical mail and then not doing that. one of these days though!!

[hella1975]

the closest ill ever get to being a pick me girl is the joy that fills me when the chefs at work so clearly favouritise me. like im there nicely cleaned up in my smart-casual uniform just a 20 year old waitress smiling my customer service smile and behind me spawns Scary Dog Privilege 10x in the form of several burly middle-aged chefs at least three of which have criminal records and would all stick a bread knife in someone for bothering me

#like it's really funny bc i worked HARD with back of house bc i knew my job would be significantly easier if they liked me #(it speeds your orders through. you can ask for things without being told to fuck off during a rush. they'll get you food on shift etc) #and also there's a stereotype especially in fancier places where floor staff look down on kitchen staff and i think that's shitty #so i was always going to be try with them and be nice but ALSO when i first started my job it was in a peak era so while these days #we're struggling a lot and have had to employ a lot of college kids that dont know what they're doing #when i joined it was all private school girls that would swan about the place very snootily. so the divide between front and back of hosue #was INTENSE when i joined. and there i was a little state school girlie and the chefs immediately recognised that #and took me under their wing. so even though the class angle doesnt exist so much anymore and theres majority state schoolers #im still very much in with the chefs in a way not many of the other floor staff are. and there's also the fact im not scared of them #like chefs ARE rude and a lot of them DONT like or even respect floor staff but i will GLADLY tell them to fuck off if i think it necessary #and that's a language they understand like ironically there's one chef that doesnt get on with ANY of the waitresses #(i talked about him on another post he's the soup one) but he likes me bc when he tried that rude dismissive act i told him to shove it #and now the other waitresses literally SEND ME TO TALK TO HIM when they have questions/want something bc they know he'll listen to me #and me and the head chef are besties and the one kp will talk OVER THE OTHER WAITRESSES' heads and completely blank them #so she can talk to me and it's all just really funny bc the kitchen staff LOVE me and that's not even me being arrogant #it's like a known thing at work that they love me and im just. a 20 year old 5'2 waitress with my little pearl necklace and blouse #and some tattooed ginger mohawked 6ft chef is there getting angry for me when i come in complaining about a table #or the kp that is literally on probation will give me a sticky toffee pudding and tell everyone to leave me the fuck alone LMAO #hella slaves to capitalism

Now my question is. Does Cacophonix's reputation as the ultimate gaylord precede him. Does anyone outside of the village know him as Mr. Gay. Is he like Lil Nas X where gays all around the. Area. Look up to him as the gay icon that he is.

Thank you kindly, I LOVE getting asks from you cause they are a perfect excuse for me to draw Cacofonix, and if there's one thing in this fandom I love drawing as much as Gaylois, it's Cacofonix. Here's a little comic inspired by your question since I can't help myself:

I can easily imagine Cacofonix on a big trip, having fun and indulging all of the opportunities and glamour of city life, making friends (lovers? possibly? 😳) easily, courtesy of his charismatic and pleasant demeanor (at least as long as he doesn't try to sing). People obviously aren't fans of his musical talent, or rather a lack thereof, but whenever a stranger happens to recognize him and call him by name he tends to immediately jump to that conclusion and brag about it to his fellow village folks, who clearly aren't buying it, lmao. Admittedly, at the end of the day, being appreciated and recognized for being entertaining, pretty and gay rather than for your art is not the worst position to be in, so he does take it for what it is, though not without a healthy dose of fussing about constantly, no matter where he goes, being "strangely surrounded by people who don't seem to understand art".

Funny that you mention Lil Nas X cause I just made a playlist with my favourite bardcore covers in honor of Cacofonix the Ultimate Gaylord™ and Montero is the first song on it.

#asterix #cacofonix #cacophonix #assurancetourix #my art #the sweet homosexual tension of a man piercing your ears in exchange for a date #listen... this is a sfw blog so we won't be discussing Cacofonix's jolly good big city gay time in great detail #it does make me admittedly uncomfortable to think adult stuff about a childhood nostalgia comic... BUT #if I had to choose one character who fucks it would be Cacofonix #I could probably make up a whole story about Cacofonix and his mysterious Lutetian admirer but I have a Gaylois wedding to attend to #and by that I mean I'm gonna make Gaylois wedding fanart in response to an ask I got #lmfao the way Asterix gives him a rude awakening and Cacofonix throws shade at him in return is sending me #what does he know about charm??? I dunno man maybe ask Obelix since he's clearly happily married #they are both such gay disasters #they give me strong gay besties/mlm solidarity vibes #but also it's a great ship imo #I'm all ride or die for Gaylois but if you see my art of Asterix and Cacofonix as shippy I won't stop you #I will encourage you even #it's my second favourite Asterix ship and I'm planning to draw some cute stuff with them every now and then #I wonder if they have a ship name #asterfonix? #I like that #anyway Cacofonix with piercings am I right 😳😳😳

Wait so you love Lando but hate Carlos? but you post Carlando? girl how do you justify that

"wait so you love lando but hate carlos" <- absolutely correct anon, you got it!!

"girl how do you justify that" <- easily: i do what i want here on tumblr dot com.

hope this clears it up for you anon ❤️

#asks & answers #anon #insane anons #like...... WHAT is the point of sending a message like this. genuinely what on earth #what are you trying to achieve bestie?? #if you're trying to get me to like carlos and/or carlando more then this sure is NOT the way to go about it #the hell... #and yeah i know i could easily have deleted this one and not bothered to interact with it at all #i almost did #but there has been such an upsurge in absolutely insane and entitled/demanding and just bizarre behaviour in this fandom as of late?? #and so i WANTED to address this in the most matter of fact way possible #because here's the thing anon: in sports - and in ANY fandom really - we are all allowed to like who we like #and hate who we hate #and the idea of justifying that is already absurd #but GOING TO SOMEONE AND *ASKING THEM* to justify why they like or dislike something???? #what the actual HELL... #go outside... touch some grass... have a good long think #would you ask someone who doesn't like apples 'why don't you like the taste of apples' #'I DONT KNOW STEPHEN. WHY DON'T *YOU* LIKE THE TASTE OF TOMATOES' #honestly like.... #what is UP with people lately??? #JUST BE FUCKING NORMAL AND SANE. please!!! #okay rant over 😅❤️ #(P.S. - anon; don't bother replying; i WILL delete it. i just wanted to say this much xD)

“Oh, Itsuki—! There you are. I was hoping I might borrow you for a couple hours this morning . . . ?” Ryunosuke's fussing over a plethora of ingredients he's set out on the counter, mentally going through a checklist for the umpteenth time: a guarantee that he has everything he needs and won't be forced to make a quick run to the market for an outstanding item. He tests the weight of a bag of flour again, then eventually swivels to meet the girl's eyes. “You, ah . . . might already have plans”—it is her birthday, after all—“and if so, please go attend them, but if not . . . I thought it might be fun to endeavor baking a shortcake together.”

And, no, this has absolutely nothing to do with his own lacking experience in that area—! (Or the worry that an attempt by his lonesome would not go . . . nearly as swimmingly.)

. . . Perhaps a little to do with that, but the main point is to spend time together, so there's no use holding it against him.

“We can decorate it however you like,” he bolsters, a smile spreading easily across his lips. “And if it doesn't turn out perfect, then . . . I suppose we'll have no choice but to eat it before anyone else has to see.”

// happy birthday to the sweet gorl!! ;w;/ <3

❤️ HAPPY BIRTHDAY ITSUKI!!! (15th March) ❤️

THE SIGHT THAT WOULD GREET HER this early morning was just what was needed to rouse her out of her drowsy daze. And while a teensy bit caught off guard, it was nonetheless a PLEASANT SURPRISE that they would already be off to such an early start on this rather SPECIAL DAY! And so, with her curiosity piqued (And with one last gentle rub to her sleep encrusted eyes), Itsuki would look between the young lawyer, and the numerous items placed upon the countertop itself with a slight tilt of her head.

With a smile already lighting up her face, it would be through her BUDDING POWERS OF DEDUCTION-- that she would already figure out just what @tenacquity had planned this morning for the two of them. Just SECONDS before he himself would affirm it, of course~

And so, even before he was done speaking, the young one was already bouncing on over, as she took her place by his side. Taking a better gander at the ingredients spread across the tabletop itself, before grinning brightly up at him when he had ended it off with the two best things!

Getting to decorate it, and of course-- getting to eat it together right after!

"Ahhhh ah'd love to, bro! Ehehe, looks like we'll be bakin' an' gettin' BREAKFAST ready, huh?"

A SUGAR-FILLED BREAKFAST that would ruin a normal person's appetite for rest of the day-- BUT HEEEEEY, it's her birthday! So just let her have this!

And, oh gosh, he had even gotten so, SO MANY CAKE DECORATIONS to choose from. So many fruits, candies, chocolates-- and in so many flavors and colors! It really was going to be a blast when the time came for them pretty up their shortcake together! She just knows that it was gonna turn out A-MA-ZING!

Though, as she would cast a brief glance over to the rather large pack of flour to the side, she couldn't help but wonder for a moment over how the poor bro had brought ALL OF THIS over by himself! After all, even if he had carried them all over here in bags, it would still be a struggle for one person alone to do so! And all of this was just for lil' ol her, too!

And while she did have a few things to do today, they could most certainly wait until later. The bro had already pretty much called FIRST DIBS, with his polite lil' invitation in baking this shortcake together. And NO WAY, NO HOW would she be so foolish enough to reject this fun opportunity to spend some time together with him! Why, she almost already wanted to kick her ALTERNATE SELF'S BUTT for even DARING to do such a thing! ... Wherever she may be.

"Ah didn' know ya could bake, bro! Yer jus' the full package, ain't cha~?"

As they would begin to set up the bowls and utensils, Itsuki couldn't help but point this out (Not yet knowing the simple truth of it being otherwise). Simply full of GROWING ADMIRATION for the smart young lawyer, as she believed then that he had other talents that she has yet to learn about.

It really was just so sweet that he didn't just remember her birthday, but was taking time out of his clearly busy schedule to spend it with her. And so, after at least pouring out the flour and sugar into separate bowls, Itsuki would gesture to Ryuu to lean down for a moment so that he was closer to her eye level. Going on her tippy toes, as she leaned up then to peck his cheek in gratitude.

"Thank you fer this, bro~"

#❄️ asks ❄️ #tenacquity #(AAAA BLESS THIS BOY!!! 😭<333) #(Again this made me SQUEAK when I first got the alert-- thank you THANK YOU for sending this in!!! <333) #(And they say they will eat it all up but--) #(Nah I think they should save some for Kazuma uwu) #(HEY YOUR BOYFRIEND BAKED THIS YUMMY CAKE YOU GOTTA TRY SOME TOO AWEUHAUWE) #(Thank you again bestie!!! u3u <333)

Sometimes I remember that I’ve gone out of my way to give love to people who really didn’t deserve it and gosh it really hits me just how much I’ve learned about my own boundaries in just the last year alone.

#˚ʚ meda rants ɞ˚ #like i can’t believe that around this time last year i was literally spending so much money to send a care package to a tumblr mutual #a person who always assumed the worst of me #a person who knew nothing about me but tried to call me their bestie #a person who was trying to buy my friendship #a person who loved dropping my name online only to completely ignore me in groups behind closed doors #a person who shamelessly doxxed me multiple times #i like to say that i’m not bitter anymore #but idk i came across an old ask i sent them and felt so bad for the me from last year #she was trying so hard to be liked by this person #a person who really only cared for people if they provided them with some benefit #i wish i could go back in time and snatch those friendship bracelets i made them #because they really didn’t deserve them or any of my love ;-; #lmao on today’s episode of ‘meda treats her tumblr like her personal diary’ xoxo

My mom just sent a message to the family group chat suggesting that my siblings download the 'For the Strength of Youth' magazine on their Gospel Library app and talked about how much the youth magazines helped her testimony growing up and like, cool. Fine. Don't know why the 'sending random spiritual thoughts in the gc' thing started out of nowhere when it hadn't been a thing for a decade but this is just another one of those, and you're ofc allowed to talk about things that are significant in your life.

I don't think sending the 'What I Did When Someone Close to Me Challenged My Faith' article right afterwards was strictly necessary though 🙃

#hi bg mutuals 👋 i'm gonna vent about this from time to time. if any mutuals dont want to see it block the 'apostake' tag #trying not to read too much into it b/c I think I did last time something like this happened #and i dont want to make an ass of myself even if neither time would actually be in front of my parents #but like...i know that they know that one of my sisters is clearly PIMO #they went through her phone a couple weeks ago and i have no idea if they read my texts w/ her #but if they did they probably saw the conversation i had with her about some of the really common shelf-breakers #and telling her to take looking into it at her own pace b/c it's scary and overwhelming #(a conversation SHE started btw) #and when i talked to my parents about the larger context of that whole situation i talked about not having space to step back #and their response was that they give plenty of space b/c they dont make her go to seminary??? #that's not the same thing as letting her openly question & potentially leave the church idk what to tell you #like. besties i dont know for sure what caused it (which is NOT making things better. it just feels potentially passive aggressive) #but from my end? it sure looks like it might be a reaction to that. probably not JUST that (friends exist) but. #if you think I'm whispering anti-mormon rhetoric into my siblings' ears just ask me. i'm very much NOT doing that #i'm just. talking? to them? when and if they come to me with questions? #and not making my answer 'well there's a reason our parents raised us in the church! ☺️' #(an actual argument given in the article my mom sent) #hate it. thanks #apostake #jay rambles #ok to interact #im not challenging anyone's faith. my patience though? INCREDIBLY challenged #gotta figure out how to work my way around a 'hey please dont send spiritual thoughts to the gc *I'm in*' talk tactfully #they've been pretty chill about me leaving over-all?? at least to my face #haven't pushed me to go to church w/ them; was fine with me not visiting for easter; didnt try to convince me to not drink coffee; etc #it's just. frustrating that they're not giving my siblings that still live with them that same grace #my sister's 17 ffs #it's very possible im way overreacting to the article. but what is tumblr for if not screaming into the void #religion #mormonism

Fidough Fun Facts!

Fidough that produce different strains of yeast have been bred for various purposes over the centuries, whether for baking, brewing, or winemaking. While these pokémon are generally no longer involved in the process of food or drink creation, these breeds are still around today, and are easily identifiable due to their distinct appearances and temperment.

Some companies, especially the smaller or more artisanal ones, still utilize fidough in the creation process; one well-known breeder is currently attempting to breed a fidough variety that can aid in the creation of kombucha.

There's an old wives' tale that a fidough not allowed to sample food or drink made with its yeast would feel disrespected, and would curse those who consumed it with terrible food poisoning. For this reason, it was once customary to offer fidough a taste of any product it helped make. It's well known today, however, that fidough cannot process large amounts of grain or alcohol. Experts strongly advise against indulging in this long-standing tradition!

A group of fidough is called a roll!

watching halloween movies with jt while kids are trick or treating at your house would be the actual end of me

OHMYGOD!!! i’m obsessed okay

it’s halloween night and it’s the first time you’re spending the holiday with jt in your newly bought house in a quiet section of denver. the neighborhood is perfect for that future family you both want and it’s not far away from the arena or practice rink for jt. you got to decorate outside for halloween and experience autumn in your own home which has been nothing short of incredible.

now, a halloween movie marathon is playing on tv and you’re cuddled up with jt on the couch watching the festive films. it’s calm and cozy, everything you wanted. you’re both going to nate’s later for some big halloween party, but for right now, your boyfriend and spooky movies are perfect.

every once in awhile though, the doorbell would ring signifying one thing and one thing only. trick or treaters. the moment the chime sounds through the house, you and jt are racing to the door to see who makes it first and gets to hand out the candy. and once the front door opens, you’re faced with the cutest little kids dressed in their amazing costumes.

“trick or treat!” they all say happily, holding out their pumpkin baskets and halloween bags. you compliment all of them on their costumes; a princess, a superhero, spider and no surprise, a mini colorado avalanche hockey player. jt crouches down to show the kids the candy in the bowl before dropping the one they want into their baskets. he’s got the biggest smile on his face, a look of joy that you love so dearly.

“whoa! do i have to tell mackinnon that he’s going to be replaced next year?” jt teases the little boy who’s dressed as an avs player. your heart swells as they interact and if you didn’t already know, this only solidifies the fact that you want to have him in your life forever and to be the father of your children.

as the small group of kids yell thank you and clamber down the porch steps back to their parents at the end of the walkway, you lean into jt’s side just as he presses a kiss to the top of your head.

“that’ll be us one day.” he murmurs quietly, a fond look in his eyes and the sweetest smile gracing his lips.

“yeah,” you start, squeezing him a little bit as another group of children approach the house. looks like the movie marathon won’t be finished tonight. “that’ll be us one day.”
