Did you ever pour a little Elmer's glue onto your hand, spread it around, wait for it to dry and then peel it off? Once it dries, the glue holds a clear imprint of the lines of your palms. Imagine our universe is the dried glue. All the beings on earth and in the sky, all the endless blackness of space, all the heavens in their great spinning chaos, everything we know exists in this thin copy of a completely different layer of reality.
Our universe is a membrane, a hologram, a soap bubble. We don't go through the looking glass. We are the looking glass. Some cultures imagine our world is on the back of a turtle, which, you would think, is not literal. But our universe rides a creature so strange, we don't have the senses to detect it or the math to explain it. Maybe we do live in a layer of mud on the back of a giant, multi-dimensional turtle.
Consider the dark star at the centre of our galaxy. Our Kaldi, our Odin-eating wolf at the end of days, this massive black holes shapes our galaxy into a maypole of stars pinwheeling around its gravity well. As we approach this cosmic Charybdis, consider the violence necessary to shred the matter of suns into its swirling accretion disc, where the broken stars scream radiation before they've funneled into the heart of the black hole. This gravitational meat grinder forces space and time into a grisly singularity.
This is a door not only in time, but in dimensions.
Consider roadkill. Consider the bloody pancake of a body now a shadow on a road. Your three-dimensional body made two-dimensional by the mass and velocity of cars. Now consider your three-dimensional body in nine dimensions: imagine pouring a glass of apple juice into the ocean. When you shift out of our dimensions, you run the risk of dispersion so profound, even the memory of you is obliterated. Universes are stubbornly separate.
Unless you are a Trickster.

Usagi Yojimtober Day 26 - Foolish innocence
She means danger!!!
I was thinking, If Jotaro is more than a half like Usagi, then he would inherit his luck with ladies... With all that that implies.
Usagi doesn't disapprove, but he's having serious thoughts about his son's taste in girls.

Gabriel As Your Garudian Angel
Tumblr media
~ first of all its the first and almost only thing he has ever tooken seriously
~when he found out he didn't really care. Michael and Lucifer were desened to inhabit the Winchesters bodies and he got the boring job of being Bobby Singer's Nieces.
~when he first met you he immediately took the roll. He Loved your personality and stuck around.
~you were a kid when you first met so you just thought he was an imaginary friend.
~he hung around in your toddler years but slowly stopped showing up when you befriend Sam and dean
~he felt like you didn't need him anymore so he protected you from a far
~after awhile you forget the angel and figured the boy with golden wings was an imaginary friend.
~you didn't have encounter intill years. You were an adult and a hunter.
~your first case involving him he was just know as the trickster. He left you untouched but screwed with Sam and Dean.
~that pattern continued when with the mystery spot Fiasco. Gabe knew how much you cared for Dean so he didn't put you in the time loop with Sam.
~that same time period he didn't bring Dean back till you asked.
~during his TV land joke he purposely put you and the boys in shows you liked. Like Dr. Sex MD was based off Greys anatomy(a show you liked)
~after that you confronted him while he was in the holy fire.
~ “I'm always left untoched during your practical jokes, why is that?”
~“you don't remember me? I'm hurt Sugar”
~for some reason you showed murcy on him and convinced the boys to let him go.
~“I always thought you were my imaginary friend”
~“I stopped hanging around because you had the boys... I guess I thought you didn't need me anymore so I protected you from a far”
~after that he wouldn't leave you alone. It annoyed the hell out of the boys but you brushed it off.
~he'd always wake you up with his favorite song heat of the moment. Or he'd wake you up like an alarm that was set on radio mode.
~“Gooooodd Morning miss. Y/n Singer. It's a beautiful day in Lawrence Kansas. The weather is gonna be sunny and dry. But better get ready because the forecast predicts a pesky Windego on the loose. I'm your host Gabriel the Trickster”
~you guys grew close and your friendship kinda turned romantic to both of your fright.
~guardian angels aren't supposed to fall in love with their person. It was just the rules.
~then again when did gabe ever follow the rules.
~after yours and Dean's failed atempt to a relationship gabe flew in.
~it started off casual. You slept together once or twice but Never confermed anything.
~not wanting that in a relationship you told him how you felt.
~“everyday I'd wake up to your stupid music and your stupid voice. I feel in love deeper and deeper with you”
~you kept it on the down low afraid of how the boys would react. But after one of his tricks it came out, but it also caused Sam to break his arm.
~that was the biggest flaw in your relationship. His ability to not care that he screws with your Family.
~“I'm tired of you hurting them all the time. We're a team. If you hurt them, you hurt me...some guardian angel you are”
~that hurt the both of you but it proved you two were ment to stay friends. It also made you realize the whole relationship was something you guys wanted to do because it was going against the rules.
~he reminded faithful to his Job and his friendship to you. He even helped you fix your relationship with Dean(which is who you belong with).
~the first time you watched him died hurt worse than any wound you got on the job. He lied there lifeless after saving you from Lucifer.
~the boys didn't know how to comfort you. It felt like part of you was missing.
~after you found out Asmodeus had captured and torchored gabe you were beyond furious.
~gabe was beyond scared when he was in the bunker but he trusted you. It was your turn to protect him.
~you where the one to convince him to take his grace and heal himself.
~“I need you gabe, I can't lose you again”
~ he stayed around again and even helped you look after Jack who you took under your wing. He took the role of an uncle oddly seriously.
~then came your time in purgatory. You were determined to get jack back and gabe wasn't gonna let you go alone. Even if you had your boyfriend Dean. And by the laws of heaven he had no choice.
~that wasn't his mind set. You were and always be his best friend. There ain't no him with out you.
~he never left your side during your time in purgatory. It angered Dean but gabe could care less. It was unnatural for him because you'd think he'd take it to his advantage but he didn't.
~during that time Lucifer teased the both of you. It infuriated gabe and he did his best to keep distance between the both of you.
~“lay one hand on her it'll be the last thing you ever do”
~during the cold nights you lied awake next to gabe wrapped in his leather jacket.
~when it was time for you to leave gabe didn't make it back. And he was gone for real this time.
~it took all Sam's power to pull you back as you screamed and cried his name.
~while everyone celebrated there return home you stayed in your room in the bunker crying in his leather jacket he left with you.
~the pockets of the jacket were filled with candy wrappers(you never took them out).
~What hurt the worst was there was a gold feather in the pocket as well. His feather.
~you wore it on a necklace and psychologically it made you feel safer.
~after he died your post hunt injuries hurt worse and they were more often. That proved gabe did his job well.
~Dean didn't know how to help you. He comforted you when you cried but Castile was the only one that willingly talked to you about it.
~“he really did care about you... In fact him being your guardian angel was the only thing he ever took seriously.”
~Cas later tried to take the job because he thought gabe would want that but her couldn't.
~you only get one gaurdian angel and gabe was the best and only one.

I think Leo Bardonaro is an anesthesiologist.
One, because an anesthesiologist's job is to take the 10 or 15 minutes max they have with a patient and essentially convince them to put their entire life in their hands. Other doctors and surgeons typically get a significantly longer chunk of time to interact with the patient and answer their questions, but at the end of the day, it is the anesthesiologist who will be keeping the patient alive, stable, and safe while the procedure is going on. For better or worse, Leo has the kind of relaxed, companionable personality that would not only be able to leave a patient laughing, but also to feel entirely at ease—he's confident, he's collected, and if he's not worried about this, why should they be?
Two, because I think he would've had way too much fun making jokes about laughing gas.

So, I've just finished listening to The Ashes of Prospero and one of the things that surprised me was how the members of the Space Wolves 13th Great Company seemed to show regret at their actions on Prospero after they realized that Horus gave them the order to destroy Prospero and the Thousand Sons legion.
I know that the Emperor had originally ordered Russ to simply bring Magnus back to Terra and that it was Horus who changed the order to destroy the Thousand Sons, but I had thought that the Space Wolves dispised the Thousand Sons enough to not care about whether they exterminated them all or not or who the order came from, but this does not seem to be the case. Bulveye, the 13th Great Company leader even says that Thousand Sons could've been an ally to the loyalists during the Horus Heresy if it were not for Horus' orders.

"I don't regret you."
"Gran doesn't like me," he said. "I remember that."
"My mom's messed up," his mom said. "The nuns messed her up. They made her think everything Indian was evil. And that includes you and me."

It's always polite to ask first! I wouldn't wanna bother someone if they're busy! How's your walk going, Retcon? :0
“Well, rest assured that I’m usually not busy.”
>He streeeetches and shrugs his shoulders.
“It’s a walk. Gets me out of the house.”
