Reluctant War AU Part 3

Part 1 Part 2

More of the brain worm that has taken me over, gonna probably post it to Ao3 here before too long. Already got another part started and so many ideas for additional stuff, someone please send help I've been consumed by this thing lol

Sorry if Waller seems out of character, outside of fandom I'm mostly familiar with her through Justice League the animated show & Justice League: Unlimited and her vibe there has always struck me as "deeply incredibly unlikable character that also kind of has a point but also has done so much fucked up shit in the name of her goals that you don't really care about her point anymore." So you know, complicated lol. If she's completely unrecognizable let me know, but I'm hoping she feels at least somewhat like Waller.

Forgot to say this in the last update, but still feel free to use all this as an overly long prompt if yall want. Literally anything I throw out to the void should be treated as a prompt lol If there's anything at all interesting to you in any of this nonsense go for it <3 <3 <3

Amanda Waller was someone who did what needed to be done.

Ruthless, heartless, vicious, cruel.

She’d been called it all. Wore the words thrown as insults as a badges of pride and valor. Because at the end of the day, when it came to the problems she was given to face, the issues she was meant to solve, those words meant she’d done what others had been too squeamish or cowardly to do. Life was a never ending slog of trolley problems and she the only one unshakable enough to pull the levers that needed pulling.

It wasn’t so simple as a matter of greater good.

Greater good was what the weak willed muttered to themselves after having feelings over doing the bare minimum. A justification used by people on all sides to do what they wanted with fractured, faulty logic thrown around like truth was a thing immutable. To assuage their guilt when they were forced to make a call they didn’t want to.

It wasn’t a matter of greater good. It was a matter of preservation. Of protection. Of digging through the filth to find the threats skittering beneath and crush them with ruthless abandon. Of facing a god and not blinking because if you did it could cost the world.

Of doing what needed to be done, no matter how underhanded or atrocious it was.

Hands dirty.

Hands red.

Hands wrapped tight around the throat of something that could threaten to destroy it all.

When the Ghost Investigation Ward had been shoved her way with it’s sucking wound of a budget, it’s bloated incompetent staff, its asinine methods she’d seen a rotted limb in need of hacking off. It hadn’t been until she’d been conducting her inspection, digging through the trash for a few pearls of effective agents she could snatch up and put to work elsewhere, that she’d truly seen what they were working on. The potential.

Potential to better arm themselves with in the forms of the strange new weapons being created.

Potential for threats far greater than anything even she had thought possible before.

The GIW as it had been when she’d first come across it was a fetid waste of time and resources. A laughing stock agency only secret because no one took them seriously enough to look. Made stupid and useless with its own conceited delusions of importance it didn’t actually have. Yet.

She went to work on it. Hacking away as she’d originally intended, but this time with a different goal in mind. She ripped out the weeds with bare, calloused hands and planted proficiency and loyalty in their place. She took over as director herself, tossing the self-aggrandizing fool that had been running the place into the ground to the dogs as the culprit for misappropriate spendings, saving the agency by tweaking things until their ballooning budget was pinned neatly onto the former director as an embezzling charge.

Then she got to work.

The Fentons were brilliant, if entirely insane. But Amanda could work with that. She’d reigned Harley Quinn in - more or less - she could do the same to the two deranged scientists that so eagerly wanted to be apart of the fight against the dead. Especially when the benefit came in the form of the inventions they threw together so easily, especially when those inventions were weapons.

It took very little to get them on board with her plans for the GIW. Keeping their focus could be a chore, at times, but she didn’t even have to really do much in the way of pressing to get them back where she wanted them. They craved knowledge and understanding nearly as much as they craved the eradication of the entities themselves. Letting them have the first look at a new subject here, free reign over a vivisection there, it took so little to fuel their fervor and keep them busy working on the projects she set for them.

Things had been going smoothly.

For a time at least.

Until Phantom.

He’d been the main focus of the previous director’s attention, the big fish he’d so desperately wanted to catch and put up on his wall. Amanda wouldn’t lie and say it wasn’t a tempting prospect, but not one she’d put above the other projects she had set in motion since taking over. No, Phantom was powerful, enough to be a real problem one day, but she could the awkward youth in the way he held himself, the inexperience in how he handled situations. She had time to get everything else in order before focusing on getting Amity Park’s would-be hero brought to heel.

And he would be brought to heel. One way or another.

Hands dirty.

Hands red.

Hands wrapped tight around the Core of a fledgling god and bending him to her will.

An artifact, old an powerful, recovered with some effort. A means of controlling specters, of chaining them to the will of the artifact’s wielder. Dangerous in the wrong hands. Dangerous in the right hands.

It was shattered, and even whole and functional Phantom was resistant to its power. But Amanda Waller prided herself in her ability to see the potential in things. It could be repaired, be made better. Even gods could be bound, be made to kneel, with the right pieces, with the right application of force.

It was just a matter of time to gather everything needed.

Phantom didn’t know he could single handedly destroy every last member of the Justice League. The baby fat, the innocent eyes, the split-second hesitations when he fought. He knew enough to be confident in fighting the usual ghosts that haunted Amity Park, but he still very much saw himself as a little fish. Maybe it was the part of him that was still Daniel Fenton, gangly teenager not quite sure what he was truly capable of yet.

She had time before the Fenton’s son truly became an issue. Time to judge if his parents’ obsessiveness would overcome their - rather shoddy, by Amanda’s estimation - parental instincts and continue to hunt him once they knew the truth. Time to get as much out of them as she could before hand, should they falter at the idea of attacking their own son. Time for the staff to be repaired and returned to working order, to get the other items needed for the truly big fish hidden on the other side of the veil between worlds.

She had time.

Until she didn’t.

Pariah Dark had not been something she thought she’d have to account for - not yet, at least.

If he wasn’t already dead, she’d ring the Ghost King’s neck with her bare hands. His arrival had opened Phantom’s eyes to what he was capable of, of just how big of a fish he was. Worse still, Phantom’s defeat of the war mongering King changed the state of play. Phantom was no longer an impressively powerful half dead teenager.

He was King Infinite.

He was an Ancient.

He was getting on her last damn nerves.

Phantom’s rogue gallery were now firmly under the boy’s control. Still distinct nuisances around Amity Park, but no longer considered true concerns. They were loyal to their boy king, delighting in ruffling his feathers but never crossing the line into treason or attempted regicide. Which meant that the GIW was the only thing that held his attention.

Amanda took the time to send a care package to the former GIW director in his tiny, dank prison cell. As thanks for his carelessness in revealing to the entire town - both living and dead - of the agency’s existence and their intentions. Had he stuck to standard protocol, Phantom would have been none the wiser to their presence. Would have scratched his head and shrugged his shoulders at the ghost that went missing upon occasion. Would have been boredly uninterested in the people his parents had begun working with. Would have been taken by surprise when they finally came for him.

But no.

No that self-obsessed, fame chasing imbecile had to go and announce to everyone and their dead mother that the GIW existed and exactly what it was they were in Amity Park to do.

Phantom knew what they were there to do.

They could only count on his naive certainty that he could broker peace with them for so long.

Peace. As if he and his people weren’t the invading force, the monsters slipping in through the cracks between worlds, the latest threat that had to be accounted for. As if he himself hadn’t rent their world asunder himself in another world, another time. No. Peace was not something they could hash out with this baby-faced monarch with his too-big crown. Peace was the assurance of safety, security. Of control of the situation.

There could be no peace.

The higher ups were somehow surprised when Phantom took that to mean there would be war.

Amanda Waller was not.

The Fentons, as suspected, took the right side when all was revealed. Steady hands and flinty eyes as they crafted the weapons that would be needed for the coming fight. Minds even sharper in their maddened grief, hearts set on revenge for the son lost and the entity that stole his face and friends and sister in his garish pretense at humanity. They were blinded to the reality of the situation in its entirety, the potential in what their son truly was, but at the end of the day it didn’t really matter. They did what she needed them to do, they could believe whatever it was they wanted so long as they did.

By the time the boy king and his armies marched upon the Amity park facility, preparations had been put into place. The base in Amity had been stripped back to bare essentials, everything of importance moved to more secured locations.

The weapons labs.

The artifact.

The girl.

All tucked well away from the front lines where Phantom and his motley crew could not reach. Their time to be put in play would come, but not yet. First she needed to gauge what Phantom and his people were capable of, what they were willing to do in the name of what they wanted. Amity Park was a pawn well sacrificed on that front. As were the other facilities she’d left easy to find.

The problem with making children gods, with giving them crowns and calling them King and giving them armies to play with, was that they thought there should be rules. That even in the trenches tearing apart their enemies, there was a certain level of playing fair that everyone was held to. They thought there was a way the world worked, of how things should be that blinded them to more effective options even as time stretched on and desperation set in.

It was the Dead’s problem though, not hers.

She reached out to the Justice League. Sour faced, unhappy, bitterly reluctant to accept that she needed their help. Stone faced and barely containing their rage at what little they knew of the situation, they agreed to a meeting.

She didn’t let herself smile until she was well and truly alone in her office.

Greater good. A lie people told themselves. A fairytale told to children. A means of convincing the weaker willed that they had no choice, that they had a noble duty to bend to. A belief that could be wielded like a weapon if the fantasy of the idea had dug in deep enough. And there were few it had dug into so deep as the members of the Justice League.

Amanda Waller was someone who did what needed to be done.

Hands dirty.

Hands red.

Hands clenched tight on a victory long in the making.

An argument I've seen on tiktok a lot is that

"Aemond was stupid, he should've known not to fly a war dragon after his nephew on a tiny dragon"

And it's just...not that simple.

You have to take into account that Targaryens, especially Targaryen MEN, are taught and have this belief that their masculinity depends heavily on the fact that you have a dragon. We even see this played out in the series, with the scenes of his brother & the strong boys bullying him for not having a dragon. He then proceeds to go into the dragon pit alone and almost gets burnt alive. In the next scene, we learn that this isn't the first time he's done this.

This, next to the fact that Targaryens are not a communication positive family? There was no one there other than his brother, who was just as in the dark as he was, to tell him that you can't fully control your dragon. Generational trauma in this family along with the inbreeding goes WILD.

And, it's not even just that. That boy is heavily traumatized. Yall just wanna blatantly ignore the fact that he's disabled? He was mutilated in a cave by his cousins and nephews at the age of ten, for something that isn't inherently wrong. In his mind, he wanted to end the bullying and be seen as a rightful member of his family, and it was right there. And he was mutialted for it. He then watched as every person in that room, other than his mother and siblings, blamed him. Told him he needs to be tortured for pointing out the truth, to apologize to the people who mutilated him.

Do you genuinley think that someone who was mutilated at the age of ten, got no justice, is just going to let it go? Keep sweet in the name of family? Dumbest shit I've ever heard. People who don't understand that trauma makes people do things, feel things, that are out of order are so annoying to me. Like no pookie I did not choose to bottle up my emotions until the slightest inconvenience happens and I have a full blown mental breakdown, that's called a TRAUMA RESPONSE.

I can imagine someone who had their eye cut out has pretty bad trauma aswell??

Am I saying what Aemond did was right? No. But he didn't want to kill Lucerys. He wanted his eye, and then he wanted to scare him. Vhagar was only set off after Arrax flamed her, so by your logic, it's literally Lucerys' fault. Why do you expect Aemond to be able to pull around a giant ass dragon...Lucerys could barely do that w Arrax. They aren't dogs you fucking idiots 😭

Anyway posting this rlly old draft for someone on tt hope you enjoy 🦾‼️🦾‼️

Request: Jack and Urban get into an argument about a girl Urban has been seeing. You don’t like her either but Urban doesn’t know that, so he calls you asking for advice on how to handle Jack. Jack gets upset when you don’t tell Urban the truth 👀

Looking out 4 you

(jack harlow x reader; platonic urban wyatt x reader)

bloo's notes: im not sure i brought this request any justice but i hope yall enjoy none the less!

"Urb, man i'm just trying to be a good friend. i'm looking out for you. she's just using you for clout. i heard her on facetime with another guy and she was saying i love you and shit" jack told his best friend sympathetically. "jack just let me be fucking happy. I don't understand why you won't just let me be happy. i'm tired of always following you around. just when i start doing my own shit and being happy you try to get in the way of that" urban yelled at jack. "fuck it, you wanna get fucked over by a chick be my fucking guest urban" jack argued back; he was taken aback at urban's words. "yeah whatever i'm out" urban scoffed as he grabbed his jacket from the couch and made his way to the door.

"fuck" jack whispered to himself as he took a seat on the couch, running a hand through his curls. you heard it all go down but you knew better than to get in between their arguments. you felt bad though, you had a bad feeling about this new girl urban was seeing. she was always so rude to you and you never understood why. you and jack wanted nothing more than for urban to be happy. you loved urban and the thought of him being fucked over by some chick made you upset. but both jack and you knew that he was too invested in this girl that he knew nothing about.

you slowly made your way down the stairs of yours and jack's shared home. you walked towards the couch jack was sitting at and put your arms around him. hugging him from the back. you placed a kiss on his head, indulging in the smell of his hair products. "babe he doesn't fucking believe me, he's too into this girl" jack said to you, you could hear the upset tone in his voice. you made your way around to the couch and took a seat next to jack. "i know, even when i first met her i didn't like her vibes, she had some bad energy. and she's always been so snarky with me. but i love urb and i want him to be happy. maybe he just needs to learn on his own without us telling him" you told jack. he hummed in response. he didn't like that you were right about the last part. he didn't want to see urban hurt, that was his brother.

not even 10 minutes into your conversation with jack, you were interrupted by a phone call coming from urban. jack gave you a look, encouraging you to answer it. you answered the call. "hey urb, how are you?" you asked. "your boyfriend is driving me fucking insane y/n, he thinks he heard my girl talking to another dude and saying i love you. i talked to her and she said that she wasn't even on the phone with anyone and that jack just wanted to break us apart. i feel like i believe her, jack never really liked her. what do i do?" he vented to you. well yeah, no one likes that bitch. she's rude and controlling. you thought to yourself. jack scoffed at urban's words. you gave him a glare, warning him to not say shit. "well urban, i think you and your girl should just talk everything out fully. communication is key. we want nothing but success and happiness for you urb. he's being overprotective because he doesn't wanna see you hurt. don't stress too much" you told him. you weren't sure why you weren't just honest with urban. but you wanted him to see what both you and jack were seeing from his new girl. you knew that he would eventually recognize the shit his new girl was putting him through. but you couldn't do much if he didn't wanna listen to the warnings he was given. "alright thanks y/n" he said before hanging up.

you turned to jack, an upset look written all over his face. you sighed before saying "jack, baby if he isn't gonna listen to your warnings then he just needs to learn on his own." "you should've just told him the truth y/n, save him the heartbreak before it's too late" jack said to you, clearly upset at your actions.

you didn't know how to tell urban the truth, knowing that he wouldn't listen. he's too "in love" to even notice how shady his new girl is being.

thoughts on my sidereal chart pls? xx

pisces sun, libra moon, leo rising, aquarius mercury?

Sidereal pisces sun: Very strong gifts in psychic prowess. Can understand the universe however this is a secret amongst mortals. Most will never know how life is a dream for you, so you tend to keep it to yourself. Your brain is what is able to create your reality with such ease, people will tend to mimick that. Superstar energy for sure. whenever i see someone with pisces sun energy theyre usually a muse in some way shape or form. you guys shapeshift alot. wether through art, clothing style, or just anything that calls you to it. You guys are the stars of the zodiac. So when i call you guys muses, its more so a reflection of the cosmos. Whenever you are being yourself its like were receiving a message from the clouds, its like you guys just know without knowing. Its a beautiful thing to witness.

Libra moon: I love sidereal energy because once thing i know about them is that you will NEVER know anything about them unless they want it to. Gossip energy is really high with libras so they know when to keep things personal and when to sprinkle a little bit of true mixed with a lie. I aint tryna call yall liars, but i mean... if you gotta hide the truth i aint mad at it lol. Anywho, libras have this glamorous aura around them that makes people garner around you. That popular frequency is heavenly, we capture a glipse of your aura and the world is in awe. Your energy is more so gentle and calm with the moon in sidereal libra. Heavy thinkers with this placement, they normally use poetry to release whatever is on the heart, or whatever it is they desire to let out that venusian energy.

You have the gift of gab to. Your eloquence is for sure noticed so youre respected but many once you walk into the room.

Balance and justice is a necessity for you because when chaos hits the room their needs to be some level of peace there in order to get things back in shape. You cant stand in a room full of war too long, all though libras are built for it, most will never see it that way.

Leo rising: A STAR. When we you walk outside just know youve been seen and heard, love. Your style and charisma shows like no other. I feel a sense of being misunderstood with the leo rising. People may thing your egoic but its truly because you shine on their shadow. This is problem most people with leo sun/moon/rising face but they keep moving with stride. Your confidence is a healing presence. You represent the sun, so you heal others by just walking in the room. I can also say this about your pisces sun as well.

Do you want to be famous? Your big 3 is built for it just asking lol

Good for Her?

I love a good Good For Her movie. The Other Woman is one of my favorites. Gone Girl, Kill Bill, Midsommar (even though I’m now realizing that’s a white supremacist cult), Gerald’s Game, and even Ready or Not are ones I really enjoy. When it comes to horror, I have a few. These are not only about the justice the women deserve after being wronged, but it makes you deeply think if the ending is really a satisfying one.

Trigger Warning: SA or implied SA.

GOTHIKA (2003)

Starring the iconic and beautiful Halle Berry, this 2003 film ages so beautifully. It follows a psychiatrist Miranda Grey who clocks out one night at the mental institution she works at only to wake up in psychiatric hold, her husband brutally murdered, and she the main suspect. Only, she remembers nothing of the night she supposedly killed her perfect husband and cannot even think of why she would ever do that to the man she loved. But no one believes her. She begins to suspect a vengeful spirit that haunts and torments her is connected to it all.

I’ve watched this movie multiple times and there is always something new you discover that you didn’t before. Miranda is a very unreliable character, so what she remembers and knows is all we can really go off of...which isn’t much. Throughout the movie, she’s gaslighted by doctors and nurses she once called friends and tormented by a mysterious spirit with no real answers. But the more she digs into who would’ve wanted her husband dead, the wilder the story gets. This movie shows how psychiatric patients are viewed on both sides of the table and it’s really heartbreaking, especially with the context of sexual assault.

My favorite aspect of the movie was how Miranda’s relationship developed with Penèlope Cruz’s character Chloe Sava. As Sava’s psychiatrist, Miranda wasn’t fully able to understand the weight of the words Chloe meant and had casted her off as crazy. But after her husband is murdered and she’s thrown into the same facility as Chloe where these women are being abused, she finally sees. She is now no different that Chloe, both women screaming for their own truths to be heard by those who won’t listen...not in the way that they should anyway. Overrall, the supernatural aspect of the move made it ten times better. It would’ve been amazing without it but it’s like the final spice in the pot to make the whole meal come together.

SUCKER PUNCH (2011)

Suckerpunch is a gem. It’s not so hidden. It’s talked about from time to time so people know about this amazing movie. But I’m still not satisfied with the level of praise I think it deserves. I personally believe it should have the very same cult following Jennifer Body rightfully gets. Like JB, Suckerpunch was promoted to boys as a sexy action movie instead of what it truly is, a psycological/fantasy dealing with trauma. There’s some actiom of course, but Psycological. Fantasy. Not much horror but I still want to add it to the list.

Directed by Zack Snyder, it follows Baby Doll (played by Emily Browning) who is sent away to a mental asylum after her step father murdered her mother and sister and planted the crimes on a traumatized Baby Doll (there’s a pattern here, yall!). To make sure that the cops don’t question Baby Doll during the investigation, her step father pays off a grimey orderly Blue Jones (played by the sexy Oscar Issac) to forge the asylum’s psychiatrist’s signature to approve of a lobotomy. This inhumane procedure will be performed in 7 days, so that is the amount of time Baby Doll has to convince the other girls she meets at the asylum to help her escape, including perky Rocket and her reluctant sister Sweet Pea. In order to cope with the sexual abuse the girls go through in the asylum, Baby Doll builds a fantasy world where the asylum is instead a brothel and in order to get the tools she needs (a knife, fire, map, a key, and a sacrifice) has to distract whoever hold each tool. Where the doctor comes in seven days to lobotomize Baby Doll, in the fantasy world of the brothel it’s a high rolling John who’ll do some “cherry picking” on the newly orphaned, virgin Baby Doll.

This distraction of the brothel Johns and the workers lunges us into another fantasy world that mirrors the task at hand. In one, Sweet Pea has to copy the map in the office of the head of the brothel who parallels Blue in the asylum. Baby Doll dances to distract Brothel Blue who left his office. As she dances, the second world opens up. We are now behind enemy lines of World War I. Bombs detonate and magazines of bullets are released on each side of the battle as zombified men fight. Babydoll and her new friends are tasked to get behind enemy lines and retrieve a map. Whether or not they complete this mission reflects if Sweet Pea got the map from Brothel Blue’s office which definitely reflects if the map is also acquired in the asylum. My very guess is that this “dancing” she does is “sexual favors” in the asylum, the distraction needed to get the tools.

The action alone is amazing, so I see why they relied on it being the biggest thing the advertised, but it really did this movie a disservice. The story has layers so it won’t be seen on the first watch. It took me many watches to understand the complexities of the world within worlds, why they exist, and what certain things meant in parallel to each world. While I once watched it for the fun action, it became more sad, more soul-sinking. Even the ending I had to understand it was for the best of the character, despite it not being what we all expected it to. But it’s so beautifully sad, this bittersweet feeling. I might make an entire post talking the ending of it. One of my favorite movies.

SHUTTER (2012) (2003)

Shutter is very similar to Gothika. If it weren’t already a Thai remake of the same name, I would’ve assumed it was derivative of it. But it stands perfectly on its own.

Shutter follows newly wed couple Jane and Ben, played by Rachael Taylor and Joshua Jackson, who relocate to Japan shortly after their wedding. Ben is a photographer at the school and had already worked at the school previously, so he has American friends there, Adam and Bruno. While driving, similar to Gothika, the couple a girl that walked out into the road. But when the frightened couple gets out to help the victim, she’s nowhere to be found. Over the following few days, Jane is haunted by a mysterious spirit that relentless harasses her to no end. The only way to see this spirit is to take pictures from a polaroid. This spirit has also shown up in her wedding pictures back in the states and now appears in every photo as a smudge that seemed like a printing defect. But Jane learns that these spirits show up in photos when there is an intense emotion attached to it, and the reason why is grim.

I don’t remember how I discovered the movie but I’m glad I did. It seems like the typical movie like The Ring or Drag Me To Hell where an entity haunts the main character, there’s some research done in a library or a boxy computer, and then the evil is defeated through help. However, Shutter adds the same layer I love to all these movies where nothing is how it seems. This entity isn’t just some bored spirit that wants to pick on a newly wed couples. There is a reason.

Like Gothika, I loved the supernatural addition. It don’t hurt nobody to add in a demon, a vengeful spirit, or some gremlin running around an apartment building luring your kids to impending doom. Anything out of this dimensional world gets a gold star for me. Even in serious topics that’s more than just a family moving into a haunted home. Shutter does it perfectly. But like Suckerpunch, the ending is pretty sad. It still gives that Good For Her message, but…..is it really? I don’t want to spoil much of the ending, but is that really the afterlife we would want for Megume? Attached to a person that doesn’t deserve her time instead of moving on?

You can tell this movie came at a time where the cut and dry Evil Has Been Defeated movies they vomited out in the 2000’s were getting predictable and directors wanted to switch it up. I’m never big on adapting foreign films, especially when the Thai one was just as good, but I’m a little biased here since the 2012 version is the one I first saw. The 2004 Thai version is amazing and should be watched along with the 2012 remake.

Do yall remember this post about Hirarin participating in a Kiramune live drama reading event?? Well, they've finally updated the site with the story and cast photos, along with a video on their official Youtube channel!

Here's a very rough translation of the synopsis: After the fourth World War has destroyed nations and continents, the world looks very different. Our main character, Kudou Makoto, who works for a manufacturing company, gets called in by the company president. He's given a document with the word N.A.O written on it, which confuses him since he's never heard of them before. When talking to his former university professor, he's handed a business card that reads "N.A.O., Area J branch manager" and is told that his strength is needed. His ordinary days are about to end as he questions his beliefs and the existence of good and evil.

Each reading will be performed by separate casts so there are two people playing each role. General info below~

^Kudou Makoto - Eguchi Takuya and Kamiya Hiroshi^ After graduating from Tachikawa National College department of Robotics, he became an ordinary man who developed products to aid in disaster relief. Was invited to to develop for the N.A.O Area J branch by his mentor and former teacher Tachibana. Lives his life upright, and strives to help others. That was until his supervisor, Kureha, revealed a hidden truth to him...

^Idzuru Yakumo - Kimura Ryouhei and Namikawa Daisuke^ Makoto's childhood friend. Graduated from the same department of Robotics at Tachikawa College of Technology and works in Area A after transferring from N.A.O Area J. Decided to go back to Area J on the same day Makoto was moved to that area. Confronts Tachibana about moving Makoto to Area J because he's known him for so long and worries. He has a strong sense of justice and excellent grades. He also has internal struggles of his own that come to a head.

^Tachibana Seiichirou - Miki Shinichirou and Konishi Katsuyuki^ He's the N.A.O Area J Branch Chief of Staff. Taught both Makoto and Yakumo in college. He's the one who personally recruited Makoto to work in Area J. Is gentle yet strict with a flexible way of thinking. He makes the best decisions he can in the moment, ven if he has to remove his own emotions in the moment. Left behind his wife and daughter in the country side to work hard.

^Sakuma Hideo - Seki Toshihiko and Furuya Touru^ Commander in Chief of N.A.O Area J Branch. Ruthless and will protect Area J at all costs. He doesn't speak much and carries out his decisions without second guesses. He is beginning not to trust Makoto. Lost his wife and child in the previous war.

^Aoyama Keigo - Yonaga Tsubasa and Okamoto Nobuhiko^ N.A.O Area J branch operator. Knowledgeable in IT and works hard. He believes you cannot protect what's important to you without power. Has a lot of admiration for Sakuma and does his best to help Area J in his own ways. His older brother and parents in the last war.

^Kureha Suguru - Yoshino Hiroyuki and Hirakawa Daisuke^ N.A.O Area J Branch Development Office Manager. He's doubted the intentions of others since he was a child and doesn't trust anyone, including his own family so he only opens his heart to machines because he knows they can't lie. He's an eccentric person who loves the machines he makes like they're his children but is very knowledgeable system development. Calls Makoto "Mako-chan"

^Hino Mirai - Uemura Yuuto and Hozumi Yuuya^ A trainee at N.A.O Area J. Is a bright student and the top of his class but always falls behind Seira in their last skill exams but because of his personality he admires the other student rather than being jealous of him. After losing his parents, he now works hard to take care of his little sister, the only reaming family he has.

^Sumeragi Seira - Yoshinaga Takuto and Horie Shun^ Another trainee at N.A.O Area J. Although he got the top score in the recent skill exam, he's only average at everything else. Is shy and rarely talks to his classmates. He lives alone and doesn't even know his parents.

Sorry if anything is off, I just tried to get the basics of each character. All the guys on the left side are one cast and all the guys on the right are the other cast. Anyways, the story sounds really interesting and the cast is obviously all star, no mater which performance you're talking about! I just need them to sell blu-rays or online viewing tickets!!!!!

typical sexism from you females.. Every girl with pronouns on their bio is so toxic bunch of hypocrites. Stop dividing against men. your paranoia and fear isn't a reflection of the reall world. youre just brainwashed and brainwashing other girls on social media spreading misinformation. typical stigma towards men on tech. none of yall take responsibillity for your own actions. not our fault not many of you are in this tech field. hypocrites.

Girls, in today's class we have a living example of what I said this week.

Never let a sexist, male chauvinist and misogynist man make you feel inferior, because he will definitely be stupid.

UHEHUEUEHUEHUEUEHHEUHEHUEHUE UEUUHEHUEHUEHUEHUEHUEHUEHUEHUEHUEHUE

We even noticed that in addition to not knowing what sexism is, he has text interpretation problems, he is exactly what I said, because I didn't make a generalization (at no time did I say ALL MEN), if he offended is because he is exactly sexist, sexist and misogynistic.

And girls this makes a lot of sense because he is LITERALLY everything he said I am.

Soon he is talking about himself in 3rd person and I can prove it HUEUHUHUEUE.

1- He called me and called other women who put her/her in the bios of toxic and hypocritical, and it was precisely him who took the time to send me an aggressive message and probably with the intention of making me feel bad. Is this not toxic?

2- Then he says "you don't take responsibility for your own actions", BUT HE IS the one who sends me a 100% anonymous message, after all he doesn't want to ASSUME the RESPONSIBILITY of the consequence of talking shit to me. Too easy to text me aggressively but not allow me to return a reply on your dm, right?

3-Says I'm brainwashing you because I'm turning you against men and that's so sexist, he subjugates women to the point of indirectly saying that whoever reads what I said has no critical sense/cognitive ability to think for themselves only.

+ Besides, brainwashing is nothing less than manipulation, which is exactly what he's trying to do, make me feel bad and he's the owner of truth and justice.

+ And this is also so egocentric, the person has to be very mentally unbalanced to think that his opinion will manipulate a mass.

I'm just a regular person with a blog.

+++Guess someone's parents didn't warn them that the world doesn't revolve around their shitty little opinion UHEUHEUHEHUEHUE

4-Finally, the coolest thing, he is a hypocrite, because well, although I think he doesn't know the meaning of the terms he uses, he is a beautiful hypocrite.

He condemns certain actions and instead of having an aversion to them, he reproduces them.

Here in Brazil we have the meme " Finally the hypocrisy " and I think he would love it

Here the meme:

HUEUHEUHEUHEUUHEHUEUUHEHUEUHEHHUEUHEHUEHEUHEHUE

Now I want to give some advice:

- I usually ignore this kind of thing, when I notice that the person's problem is self-centeredness/want to attract attention with hate because their life is shit I ignore it because being ignored is a stab in their emotions.

But here, I wanted to answer because First I was like, Why is someone bothered by me??Then I laughed and I understood that he was very hurt just by my saying not to bow our heads to stupid men.

And what do men like that hate? Women smarter than them.

So why not show all the logical flaws in your argument?

IAnd also to show other women that we should NEVER shut up when someone wants to make us feel inferior, stupid or villainous/bad. Even more so if it's from a stranger on the internet or and especially someone from your personal life.

Insecurity and fear may exist, but I wish you can always have courage!

Be well, drink water and women you are amazing, capable and smart.

#woman in stem #womanintech #Don't bow your heads to stupid men #And please #if you're going to attack someone #make at least one fake profile.#It will still be cowardly #but it will be better than a 100% anonymous message HEHUEUHUEE

oh, you want to know why I report to the fucking Batman?

got a new fic yall! as may be hinted at by the title, this time it’s a DC fic. canon doesn’t exist except when it does, apologies in advance for that and also the fact that this is basically entirely a long monologue from Jason Todd as Red Hood to the Justice League. you can read it on ao3 if you want, at this link:

https://archiveofourown.org/works/44645986

or you can read it here on tumblr, below the keep reading bit!

hope you enjoy :) I had fun with this one; made myself laugh

here’s the summary first though:

There is a pause. “Looks like there’s no more League business today. Can I tell that long story now? Why I, a very evil villain, am reporting to ‘the fucking Batman’?”

You may be forgiven for thinking this was leading towards certain secret identities being revealed, or a discussion of Red Hood’s past, or even of Red Hood’s relationship with Batman, truth or lies. You would be wrong. It was not.

They’re in the middle of a Justice League meeting up on the Watchtower when suddenly the blank screen on the wall flickers to life.

To show a Gotham villain, sprawled across a chair in a dimly lit room, armed to the teeth and looking casually at the camera. It seems to be a live stream. It’s usually safe to assume that a villain wouldn’t hack into an extremely secure location to show a livestream of themselves talking to heroes without it being some sort of extreme threat or disaster, so people tense, ready to react to some new danger when the villain starts to speak.

“Batman,” says the fucking Red Hood of heads nonchalantly stuffed in a duffel bag, “why do you always miss check-in times? You get on my fucking ass for not giving appropriate reports but I can’t fucking report in unless there’s someone to report to, a’right, I’ve got limited time before someone questions why I’m missing.”

What.

Why would the Red Hood be reporting to Batman?

“Hood. I’m busy.”

Red Hood snorts, a sound weirdly distorted by his voice modifier, and rolls his head to the side that is very clearly the same gesture as a sarcastic eye roll. batman does not react to this at all. Why is he not reacting to one of his villains hacking the Watchtower, claiming he failed to check-in, and then sassing him? Also, wait. They’re responding to each other. This isn’t a livestream but a fucking video call? Can Red Hood see the League right now? Can he hear them?

What the fuck is happening, everyone thinks silently, staring at the exchange before them.

“What the fuck is happening?” Someone says, out loud.

Batman sighs, like he’s had a very long day and the people around him are unexpectedly and unreasonably making it much longer. He does not answer.

“Well,” drawls the Red Hood, which answers whether the villain can hear what’s happening in the most secure hero base they have, what the fuck, “I am trying to give my weekly report, but some people’s inability to mind their own business, and other people’s fucking inability to mind basic responsibilities” - a pointed shift of body language to face Batman’s direction, who is now stubbornly ignoring the screen - “is making that very. Difficult.”

They have so many questions.

“I have so many questions,” says someone, possibly the same League member as before, “starting with: what? who? why? how? what are you doing, who are you reporting on and to, why on earth is a villain reporting to the fucking Batman?”

They can’t see Red Hood’s expression of course, with the helmet, but the way he suddenly straightens up from his sprawl, before leaning forward towards the camera, hands bent against his legs and a tad worryingly close to his holsters, screams ‘malicious delight’ and maybe ‘surprised glee’.

“Well,” he starts again, in much less of a drawl but more of a sharp, cleanly cut tone, that isn’t distorted nearly as weirdly by the modifier but sounds much less ‘I am threatening you’ and more ‘the threat has already come to pass, and I am quickly but cheerfully informing you of your incoming demise’. He is cut off abruptly.

“It’s a long story,” says Batman. “We do not have time to delve into that now. We need to plan the upcoming raid, and then I need to take Hood’s report and deal with it appropriately.”

A notification flickers to life on another screen, near the opposite side of the room. Everyone glances at it. Red Hood leans further to the camera. Can he read the screen from wherever he is? The notification informs them that the enemy they had been about to plan a raid against has already been defeated by the local hero of that city.

They turn back to the screen showing Red Hood.

Red Hood turns his attention back to them.

There is a pause.

“Looks like there’s no more League business today. Can I tell that long story now? Why I, a very evil villain, am reporting to ‘the fucking Batman’?”

- - - - -

You would be wrong.

It was not.

- - - - -

Red Hood has grabbed a glass of some sort of drink, from somewhere. Nobody quite sure where, they didn’t see him pick it up from offscreen and there is nowhere shown onscreen it plausibly could have come from. They’re also not sure why he’s grabbed the glass. It’s not like he can drink with the helmet on, and he doesn’t seem at all inclined to take it off. Mostly, he’s using the glass to gesture as he begins to speak.

“As I’m sure we all know, Gotham is really fucking weird.”

Someone snorts and begins to say something.

Red Hood raises the hand with the glass, and points a finger of that same hand at the screen.

“Shut up. Do not interrupt me. I managed to get past enough of the security at your pretty little tower to talk to you like this, do you really think I didn’t get into anything more....dangerous to you inhabitants, at the same time? Do you want to risk it? I am going to speak, and you are going to listen, and it is going to take a while to get back around to the original point in this explanation but I will get there and then you will have your fucking answer. We good?”

Silence.

“Good. Okay. Where was I...”

“Right. So Gotham is fucking weird, I’m sure you’ve all noticed some aspects of that, it’s impossible not to notice something when there’s so goddamned many things that are weird about it or off or just wrong. Here’s one I bet you’ve never noticed or thought about before: the population count. It stays pretty steady, average for most cities. It should not be so steady.”

“Gotham is a fucking death trap, okay, between Ivy’s pollen, Scarecrow’s fear gas, and Joker’s fucking toxin, it’s close enough to constant fucking chemical warfare that no Gotham citizen ever goes anywhere without a gas mask. In addition to the rogue’s gas du jour, there’s the rogues themselves; there’s a metric shit ton of organised crime, like, an unreasonable amount, plus a truly implausible amount of independent muggers, rapists, thieves, you name it. You go almost anywhere and you can hear gunshots, you can hear sirens, you can hear screaming. So fucking many of the police force are corrupt. All the rogues have far too many goons backing them up. On top of everything else, a lot of people are both very paranoid and also armed, and whilst that’s beyond understandable due to Gotham’s,” Red Hood gestures broadly with one hand - he has a gun in that hand, why does he have a gun in that hand, should they be more alarmed than they already are - “mm, everything, it does mean that even in an interaction between two ordinary, non-criminal civilians on a day there’s no gas making people loopy or rogue threatening people, there’s still a high fucking threat of friendly fire if the one makes the other too jumpy.”

“Gotham is a death trap,” he repeats, with intense emphasis, “and people die every day. It’s the most crime ridden place you’ve ever heard of, and people die every goddamn minute. So. Many. People. Die. Exponentially more than literally anywhere else on the planet, basically.”

“So with that much constant, unending death you’d expect one of two things, right? Either option A,” he weighed up one hand demonstrably, “Gotham’s population must be decreasing like crazy, or option B,” and he let the first hand drop, instead weighing up his other hand, “there must be a fucking unbelievable amount of immigration and or a very high birth rate in order to increase the population back up enough that overall, it mostly holds steady. So, take your guesses! Which one is Gotham?”

There was a pause, as though he actually expected the Justice League to vote or at least internally make a guess on this. Then he clapped his hands together - some people startled at the sudden, loud sound - and continued.

“If you guessed option C,” he jerked his chin up in a ‘come at me’ gesture, raising two middle fingers, “which is, ‘neither, asshole’ then congratulations! You would be correct. Immigration to Gotham is virtually nonexistent. Understandably, because as aforementioned, fucking death trap, and that’s without mentioning the things that will fuck you up without killing you. The majority - not an overwhelming majority but a majority - of adults in Gotham have never had children. Of those who have had children...almost every child is an only child, or only has one sibling. Combine that with the unbelievably high mortality rate, yet eh inexplicably steady population count, and you’ve got a picture that just makes no fucking sense. It shouldn’t be possible. It isn’t, physically, actually possible. But it happens! It is happening, right now, where I’m sitting in this super sketchy basement to talk to yall in Gotham. There are very few possible explanations to this.”

“Several possible explanations that both unfortunately have the same reason they can’t be true: maybe people are just lying, or maybe some of the many, many orphans don’t realise they have a secret half-sister, or the many street rats don’t realise their asshole parents gave them brothers after kicking them out. maybe, considering the rather numerous children on the streets and the inexplicable population increases coming from somewhere to counter all that death, maybe these children just fucking spawn on the streets or something, like mobs in a video game. Nope! Pick a random person in Gotham. Any random person, adult or child, potential parent or not. Trace their history and family. Carefully. Professionally. Dig through all the planted history, the fake IDs, the falsified records. Dig deep. Look. I guaran-fucking-tee you that child has a maximum of two biological siblings. Their parents probably also have a maximum of two biological siblings, or more likely, no siblings. I also will tell you now, I’d bet on my fucking grave, that a vast majority of what little family they can lay claim to, is dead, in prison, estranged, currently a criminal, a missing person or some mix of all of the above. The only reason Gotham’s nonexistent immigration, terrifying mortality rate, and steady population would make sense is if almost every single person had a huge family. And yet they just don’t. Pick any random person, and they have a small family, most of whom they have no contact with for some reason or another. It makes no sense for the statistics or even just realistically for this to be always the case, but every goddamned person in Gotham is always so isolated. This literally should not physically be possible.”

“Other things that whilst less physically, realistically, scientifically impossible just....should not be the case: why is there so much crime, and poverty, and abandoned buildings? Bruce Wayne is not corrupt! I’ve fucking checked, thoroughly, trust me I didn’t believe it either. but no, we are very lucky, we have a literal billionaire pouring out almost all his fucking money into various charities, into the community, into funding for various structures we need. He, and everyone working for him, are doing good work, that in literally any goddamn city except this one, would basically eradicate most of our issues, including the very broad issues of poverty, starvation, and most crime. And yet, for some reason....Couple of specific examples, off the top of my head. Cops in Gotham are pretty fucking well-paid, and there are regular inspections by higher-ups who’ve been confirmed to be clean, so why on earth are there still so many cops who work for gangs? Why are there so many kids on the streets? Like again, back to the population issue, literally where do all these children come from, but also, Bruce Wayne has set up multiple things for children to go to, which are - unlike a lot of other places in Gotham - not just gonna get you handed over to gangs. And yet, so many kids on the street. I’ve talked to them, they know Wayne Foundation places are safe, most of the kids I’ve talked to have actually intended on going there, and yet, so many kids still on the streets everyday.”

“And goons! How and why do rogues and gangs get so many goons? Where do these people come from and why? I keep a close eye on crime in Gotham, it’s my literal job, I’m very good at it - never see any rogues pressuring people to work for them. gangs, yes, rogues, no. But what rational person decides - well, decided, he’s dead now, rest in pieces fucker - to work for the Joker, who frequently kills his henchmen for absolutely no sane reason? Who chooses to work for Two-Face, when your life suddenly literally depends on the 50/50 chances of a coin toss? How do people even start working for rogues, how do they find each other? It makes no sense.”

- - - - -

“Okay,” Red Hood said suddenly, and several people startled to attention, then winced, “if you tuned me out, time to tune back in because I’m about to get to the actual answer to your question.”

“Turns out the reason for most of the stuff in Gotham that makes no sense is simply ‘it’s cursed to hell and back’. The previously mentioned constant chemical warfare, the influence of Lazarus Pits as well as whatever the hell Slaughter Swamp is, evil tomb, evil hyper sigil, and various other bullshit all combines into one incredibly fucked up, unified curse over the whole of Gotham. That’s why all the philanthropy shit doesn’t work nearly as well as it should do, why all the really really weird villains we have, and why the population rates make no fucking sense.”

“Magical experts were actually called in to take a look at this shit. Like, a lot of them. We wanted to be very sure.”

“Learnt a few things. One - literally nobody can get rid of this curse. Gotham is apparently just fucking like this, and always will be. Two - aforementioned stuff about what it is causing. Three - it also apparently has some very odd effects on rumours, or what rumours are willing to believe, or something similar. Which is why pretty much everyone in Gotham knows I’m strongly against anything that harms children, any form of rape, any trafficking, and a few other things, yet this large fucking trafficking ring were all so very willing to believe me when I claimed to be one of them. It’s kind of trippy if you’re not used to it. Useful for undercover work, don’t get me wrong, but makes no rational fucking sense, it’s hilarious. Four - it centres on Crime Alley.”

Red Hood’s voice lowered a little, and he got very fucking intense as the blank face of the helmet stared them down before he kept speaking.

“Crime Alley gets the brunt of it. No matter what anyone does, it’s always a dump, it’s always full of crime and the worst kind of criminals, it’s never fucking safe, warm or light, and there’s always so so so many street rats with too little food and sex workers struggling to avoid shitty johns. And for some reason, the real fun point of this being the centre of Gotham’s curse? Vigilantes make less than no difference. Cops make less than no difference. You can’t counter the crime in Crime Alley of all places, the only option to make a difference is..”

He leaned back in his chair, gestured with one hand.

“...Take it over. You can’t stop it, can’t counter it, but if you fucking run it, you can control it at least somewhat.”

He started counting off, not with fingers but tapping loudly against his opposite palm.

“Don’t hurt kids. Don’t sell kids, don’t sell drugs to kids, don’t use kids as runners. No trafficking. No protection rackets on my own turf, don’t be fucking stupid. I see any instance of rape or abuse, I will intervene. I regularly check in with the sex workers, they will tell me if anyone treats them like shit, I will intervene. They ask for help, I give it. They don’t owe me shit. I ensure the kids have at least some access to food, and claim a few warehouses or random abandoned buildings for their use. They are fucking protected. They don’t owe me shit either, though both groups often volunteer information, which is always helpful. No form of slavery or prisoners. You wanna deal drugs on my turf? Fine, don’t cut it with anything dangerous, especially don’t cut it with anything from the rogues, don’t give it to anyone who doesn’t actually want it, and I get a cut. You wanna fight? Sure, don’t get anyone else caught in the crossfire, and if you’re operating some fighting ring it better all be people that are there willingly - as much as that can be the case - not prisoners being forced to fight or animal fights. Gambling? Fine, I get a cut. Smuggling? I get a cut. Also, if you touch Kryptonite, I take it and destroy your entire operation, ditto if you handle anything a tad too poisonous like, say, alien weaponry or shit designed to level at superhumans. Don’t bring in outsiders, don’t bring in or use poisoning. Money laundering? You’ll never guess what.”

“Don’t try and invade or take over my turf, or I’ll fuck you up and take some of yours as compensation. You wanna operate in my turf, you get permission and I get a cut of profits.”

“Theft gets a free pass, it’s pretty much always ‘I am trying to stay alive, help’ but if you hold up a store or get too violent I’ll intervene.”

“When I started running the fucking show, crime rates dropped like hell, even including my own various cases of breaking and entering, murder, et cetera et cetera.” Red Hood waved a hand dismissively. “Yeah, I’m a crime lord, but considering the fucking curse we can’t get rid of, this is the best option with the lowest possible casualty rate, crime rate, death rate. The vigilantes don’t like a lot of the crime I do allow, and really don’t like that I you know, use lethal force when fucking necessary, but given the givens I’m about as much of a genuine villain as I am an unconventional vigilante in deep cover.”

“We have an agreement. I don’t tend to leave Gotham, definitely don’t without a heads up to the bats. The Bats don’t enter my turf without permission. Unless necessary for a cover, we don’t harm each other. I get to cover all organised crime cases by default, and am obligated to hand a lot of other things, including most rogue encounters even if on my own turf, to the Bats. I get plausible deniability in my operations and won’t be stopped from using what means I deem necessary to take, say, a trafficking ring, down, but have to report in whenever I’m undercover for a case like that just to confirm that I’m alive, I haven’t been compromised, nor have I suddenly turned dark-side rather than mere extremely questionable vigilante.”

“That’s why I report to Batman.”

“Now can I start my actual fucking report? I’ve got to be back upstairs in half an hour to pretend I don’t think treating people like merchandise is horrific and I need time to mentally brace myself for the shitty comments people are gonna be making again.”

Justice for Shelley Conn!!! The writers did her and Mary so dirty and even so she was so so good. I know that every one has a grieving time but it would be so much more realistic to have Kate's father dying like a year prior, it would explain better Mary's emotional absence and why Kate had to take charge. Also I think Edwina should have known about the deal with the Sheffields since the begging, it would have made her character more likeable if she was willing to marry someone to take care of Kate and Mary and would explain the urgency of her wanting to get married so fast, the feeling that she failed her family when Anthony didn't propose and the fear she was not going to be seen as marrying material anymore after he didn't. She could have said to kate that she wanted to marry anthony and be his viscountess because she knew for what she saw that he was going take care her family if the Sheffields backed down and Kate could have understood her distress was because Edwina was in love with him. In the wedding scene her mortification would have been because she almost married a man who was in love with her sister and who loved him back all because sometimes people who love us try to proctect us instead of seeing us as adults who can handle the truth, then she would reveal to kate she knew about the deal with the sheffields and the rest of the season would be pretty much the same since it would be a big scandal for anthony to marry one sister after the other ran away from their wedding. Hire me netflix i fixed season 2

Anyways I’m done with my anti-Polio triade and we’re back to doing S2 Asks!

Also there’s a point/complaint I’ll be making in this post about post-S2 fics that came up again as a discourse on my dash last night - I really thought we put Edwina discourse to bed yall, why are yall like this T.T

Anon first off I am SO sorry to keep you waiting - this is a VERY old ask from like months ago?? I think it was prompted by my posts appreciating Book Mary and Edwina after the show butchered their characters?

JUSTICE FOR SHELLEY CONN INDEED!! God she was SO robbed of scenes and while I love my moots who dislike the Sharmas in the show because of the writing I get very annoyed when they get anons that put it all on Mary, calling her neglectful and emotionally abusive like literally it’s not that deep yall, the writers just ignored her!! But yeah I do hate that they made her Violet 2.0 just so Kate can be more like Anthony which is such a tired take.

Kathony in the books worked because while they were very similar, they did have differences that made them their own people!

As for your fixed version of S2: It’s an interesting take and definitely better writing than S2 - then again ANYTHING is a step up from S2 (well other than the weirdos writing S2 fics they’re either fetishising Kate or making The Sharmas out to be as abusive as the Penwoods and making Anthony Kate’s white knight which ew please fucking stop)

More Under The Cut [The Viscountess Essay Things]:

I do love that the first part is essentially what happened in the books. I’m not sure if you have read the book but for those of my anons/moots/followers who are show only fans here’s some context: So in The Viscount Who Loved Me the Sharmas (well Sheffields in the books not to be confused with Mary’s parents in the show because they don’t exist in the book thank god so HC that Mary’s REAL parents were fucking angels) were all aware of their financial status, including Eddie and knew they had to have Edwina marry well to secure a better future for her. I’m sure Mary and Eddie wanted that for Kate too but it was a mix of her being overlooked/intimidated by the men and her not really wanting to be married either that they just focus on giving Edwina the full season treatment. So Edwina herself is well aware of the responsibility she has to her family.

This is what made the sisters SO compelling in the books, they both had their burdens to bear and different responsibilities. Edwina wasn’t this ‘never been scarred by life and clueless’ naive deb the show made her out to be. In the books yes she is naive about marriage and what comes with it so in a way the full weight of her responsibility doesn’t really quite hit her. And who can blame her, she was 17. And it was a really good move of JQ to use their ‘courtship’ to illustrate how fucked up society was back then with the age gaps and essentially child brides. I especially loved that scene where Anthony sees El and Eddie together and Eddie is being a cheeky little sister and it hits him how young she is and how close he came to basically marrying someone like his sister.

I just loved how everyone was aware of who they are and where they stood in the books. The only clowning that happened was when Kate and Anthony were around each other - it’s like all their brain cells got yeeted from the horniness. It was funny af.

That being said, the book arc Edwina got about being the perfect deb and feeling the pressure and responsibility to marry well for her family was what I thought they were going to do after the coconut oil scene in Ep 3 but they just had to FUCK IT UP with having Eddie have a crush on him.

I do see how you fixed the mess of a plot after Ep 4 but personally I would have just YEETED the engagement and Edwina’s romantic feelings all together because come onnn Edwina and Anthony’s utter lack of connection and chemistry before they became in laws WAS FUNNY AF. Look at this shit:

I’m not sure if you want my rewrite of the season but here’s what I would have done:

- Adapted the book more close lmao but keep the horse riding motif; would have still loved for a funner version of Colin - well I guess that’s Ben in the show to have introduced them and they pretend to not know each other from the horse ride and we still get their book intro just with more layers

- Keep the new bee scene and maybe have them be caught by one of their parents - listen I just want these clowns together in an official capacity before the halfway mark of the season because WE DESERVED MORE MARRIED KATHONY IN THEIR OWN SEASON

- But instead of getting married right away, they have a longer engagement instead so we have one ep dedicated to them still struggling to accept their feelings so they use the engagement time to figure shit out. Then after a montage of hate fucking fuck buddies Kathony - we get the confession scene after the new accident scene which was just a normal riding accident she wasn’t running away but like the accident puts shit in perspective for both of them.

- Maybe not a week long coma but like a couple days and Anthony is losing his shit, Kate wakes up and is like Life is too fucking short I love you, you fucking idiot. The confession a mix of the one from the book and the show WITHOUT KATHANI. HER NAME IS KATHARINE. [Before anyone sends me asks about this bit please read my Kate Name Discourse tag on this I have talked about it to death]

- In this version just like in the books, Edwina feels n o t h i n g and their ‘courtship’ conversations are boring af. She quickly sees through him presenting the performative version of himself for her. She gleans this from how he is with Kate and also after her convo with Daphne going “Anthony, even tempered???” She’s like Something isn’t right here?? And calls him out for it and he sheepishly admits he wasn’t being himself (actually the “Let’s stop playing our roles” speech could be directed at Anthony here instead tbh) and they start to get along more as friends/future siblings in law.

- Also what pushes Eddie to call him out and stop their courting is her falling for Dorset who is a mix of Bagwell and Dorset in this. We’re yeeting his “I went to India once and made it my whole personality” trait. He can still have visited and not always bring it up in convos. So replace that Edwina and Anthony scene talking the drawing room with Dorset. Basically they have the Edwell romance that was in the books.

Spicy Alternative that could have avoided the Straight Mess™ that was The Engagement Plot and stupid fucking triangle: Edwina is a lesbian. Girlie has read definitely Sappho she knows what’s up. But because of her own burden and responsibility to the family, there’s a bit of hetcomp at play. That’s also why Eddie feels nothing for him lmao. I can also see her being bi to be honest. But yeah Lesbian!Edwina would have been fun to see with El, replacing Theo (love him but YEET the man teaching a woman about feminism) and this way there’s no stupid rebels plot that the Queen can threaten El with and Pen can go off and ruin someone else’s life (Cressida maybe who actually deserves it??)

- I don’t care if this picks apart the other plots cos fuck all the Featherflops and LW storylines, Cousin Hack doesn’t exist in this season, all his screentime goes to developing the Sharmas and giving Kate the backstory SHE ALWAYS DESERVED! GIMME ALL THE SHARMA SCENES FROM THE BOOKS. WE NEEDED THE MILK SCENE. MARY TELLING KATE SHE VISITS HER MOTHER'S GRAVE TO UPDATE HER ABOUT KATE. A L L THE KATE/EDWINA/MARY BONDING SCENES

So many fucking good book scenes and lines and we got n o t h i n g.

- Also!!! Anthony should have had sex dreams. Like if they didn't want to have them having sex until after the engagement plot, fine - could have offset it with more scenes pre-confession with his sex dreams dammit.

Anyways that's my take, hope yall enjoyed it and thanks for reading this all the way through if you did!

[ Ik yall can tell how much I hate S2 sometimes it honestly makes me tear up at times I feel stupid]

#bridgerton #kate sharma #anthony bridgerton #kathony #Bridgerton S2 #Bridgerton S2 Rewrite #Welp was gonna do that with some friends it just never happened 😭#Bridgerton Asks

Office of Public Affairs | Federal Court Orders Florida Pain Clinic to Close, Physician and Clinic Owners to Pay Civil Penalties for Alleged Role in Unlawful Opioid Distribution | United States Department of Justice

so exactly what is a pain clinic supposed to do? Im asking because I am being steered toward one. of course its at jhh so I am pretty confident in their professionalism. I still wholeheartedly believe its just a way of passing the buck. So I will get sent here and they will say sorry bub you gotta live with the pain. medicine? yeah we got it but we won't give it to you because we might get sued. So its limboland for people with chronic pain like me. sending me to the pain clinic is them handing me my hat and showing me to the door. its hard to blame them. so many seek this medicine that I have to go out of my area to actually fill it. theres that much demand and the pharmacist says "you gotta be here the day the truck comes." really? fucking really? either 80% of baltimore is in pain or just addicts on the take. I don't have that problem outside my area. so what else am I supposed to think? the last time they sent me to a pain clinic in northern balt. co. and I literally walked out of there. it was like a 3 ring circus and I mean c'mon guys I live 150 ft from an open air drug market if I want to hang out like that I would be over there. don't think pain hasn't brought me to the threshold of thinking about it. and that's awful really. so I can't wait to hear the bs they are going to spin at me. count backwards from 10? drink more coconut juice? wear a rubber band on my wrist and snap when it feels like betty davis is walking in heels on my disemboweled colon? I can't wait. The only reason I agreed to go was for my oncologist. I treated her badly at times I can be a difficult patient. She has been there for me and thanks to her direction I was connected to other doctors and the benefit of the mirtazapine. So far I am a success story for her. but the experts and her agree that I should not be having the pain at the levels I am. shouldn't but I darn well am. thankfully they will be watching the liver. and today I saw my primary and the blood pressure appears to be back under control (yet another pill) but today I was 170 lbs. last time at oncology I was 173 which was a rise from the last but after my radiation I was 178 and they did backflips they couldn't believe it. I told them "edibles baby" they help my appetite and calm my stomach remnant (I like to call it that they cut out 85%) but yeah I told them they should study it, you being johns hopkins and all. place is like a medical starship and many nights I lay here thinking of it just that way. I just don't know man. you can cry foul and quote opiate crisis this and that but what every conversation and even this very release from the motherfucking DOJ leaves out are the real people with debilitating pain and yeah bitches I hope you hear me. I used to fix your desk and chairs. doing me alot of good ain't you. well yall got your hands full with the nazi trump circus of death. you know what? I will live with the pain if you promise to hang his carcass from the washington monument. he would like that. a bigly way to go. I have no idea what to expect from this...clinic. why do I hear amy singing no no no.

no one cares about people in chronic pain. and I go to one of the premiere hospitals on the planet.

the truth is there is no answer to chronic pain. To them it is still a mystery. they don't admit that but its like the electric pulses that give us thought. electrical impulses give us pain. we need them so we don't burn our hands off, but understanding how it works? nope. do opiates stop pain? the actual impulses. I mean I feel it work in my battle zone of inner organs so I can say yes after a fashion. in other ways it doesn't stop the pain but just makes it more bearable. and I have tried all of them. which is why I laugh at these fentanyl stories. that was the weakest they tried on me it was weak. I said fuck that go back to the other because that stuff is weak in comparison. I personally don't want to be on any medicine whatsoever. part of that mentality led me to where I am because me thinking im invincible and heart meds? every day? forever? yeah right. well I didn't listen and my aorta exploded. now with only a tiny stomach and all the surgeries they say I no longer have normal anatomy and many times the doctors have to go back even to dr lum and say wtf lol. but im still here. I ain't goin nowhere. use duct tape if you gotta and if you gotta take my pain meds because you are afraid of the freedom caucus then do it. just look me in the eye and tell me the truth. I don't think these docs at this new clinic are ready for me. maybe she will warn them. I would.

anyway the government doesn't care if you are in pain. they only care about the "opioid crisis" because it effects their bottom dollar. and as much as I am devoted to jhh they are still a for profit organization. I won't have a problem. I haven't had any problems when I didnt have them or ran out, no junkie behavior here. I take them before I eat and sometimes after depending on that nights pain. I also know that all of this is no ones business but my own. your telling me, I can hear you through the text, telling me to stop no one needs to know that. maybe someone else you haven't imagined is reading and they too suffer chronic pain and I don't have any answers in this post but neither do the suits who make these decisions that effect our lives and we must remain quiet because omg you don't wanna tell people you are on drugs. on drugs?! really! I take a total of 9 prescription medications. I am on drugs pooh bear, get over it. consider yourself lucky. oh and hey, give me a call when they decide to send you to a pain clinic I can give you some tips. if your lucky enough to survive like me. got a nephew who just got his diagnosis. young. too damn young. my advice to him? fight like hell and never give up. and when the time comes and you are in a hospital bed....get up. get out of that bed. however you have to do it. that's what Dr yoshi told me. and showed me. cancer is a scary word. some people never get past that. my advice? they give you a death sentence and you say go to hell come and catch me. you fight to the last breath. say what? sign for you not to resuscitate me? bitch, resuscitate me and like I said use duct tape if you gotta. you bring me back even if its just my head left so I can still cuss everyone out.

yeah. pain clinics. shams. that's my opinion until it ain't I will let you know.

there was things i wanted to talk about today, but i didnt write them down cuz ‘what if i make a hc post later today’ but then i nvr did cuz i didnt have time to write so now i have forgotten what i wanted to do, so kids rmbr to write down ur ideas

#stardust speaking !#i know.....one of them....was regarding gran & rules/laws. considering gran grew up at an island thats constantly described at one that #rarely gets visitors etc.....its Literally called hermit island #so i feel like grans more wellversed into Basic Decency & justice as a Concept but having not seen.....Any of what other skydom does #until theyre 15+ is. a thing #like zinkenstill is TINY #so seeing enforcers is kinda just 'wow ive only heard about yall'#but for gran to see themselves as a good person that requires them to HELP ppl who need help #so following this law & justice is kinda Whatever #enforcers take black knight into custody vs grandcypher needing black knight to find out the Truth about everything #is a choice that gran wont feel awfully bad about #ofc they follow what regulations they Have to follow (like the system of entering new islands)#but grans loyalty lies within their crew as opposed to anything else #THE OTHER WAS JUST.....general stuff....probably......about gran & the future & grans feelings towards it etcetc #also gran & crying cuz gran DOES get teary in the manga after they defeat tiamat. cuz the skies pretty or something??? ITS SO LAME #its endearing i love it #but i think rpwise too the only time gran has Cried was in front of katalina when struggling to deal w everything in arc3 #ive been over this many times but.......gran is rly bad at hiding anything they feel #but that doesnt mean they wotn Try. and they also avoid crying in public (or at all)#ANYHOW ILL SEE WHAT ILL DO WITH IT ALL #welcome back to toestalucia rambles with no direction

"A Race Man"

--- yes, I cut this photo of Sidney like this and included the caption for a reason, lol "proved"--- A quick history lesson. Waaay back in the day, back in the days of Poitier and Belfonte... The pursuit of being a "good example" of the race in order to make progress for us all, was a thing. This came from an idea created by white northern philantropists, but publicized by W.E.B. DuBois, called "The Talented Tenth". These examples... like Poitier finally winning the first Oscar for a black man and the first lead actor Oscar for Lilies of the Field, in which he portrays the most non-threatening benign black man ever created, literally building a church for white nuns... were seen as "progress" for the race. A way to prove to a country created/sustained by chattel enslavement, that we as a "race" were intelligent, kind, and worthy human beings who can stand side-by-side w/ white people at the highest echelons of society. Many black people of the day bought into that. And many others raised in lionizing the acheivements of these rare ceiling breakers, also grew up with the mistaken belief that being "an example better than them" as a norm, would gain the same rewards and create a place for others to follow. But... This assumes that convincing whiteness that we are worthy, good, decent, human beings is both possible and is the issue holding us back. Toni Morrison famously said this kind of thinking is a trap.

--there's a reason why black women tend to be clearer on this than black men, but this post will be a bit too long... I'll cover it later-- And honestly, now we're in the perfect times to demontrate the truth of the above statement. The fact that members of the GOP harassed and walked out on the most qualified Supreme Court Justice candidate ever. GOP members... who barely have a GED and the IQ of a tree stump proudly being loud, ignorant, bigoted, pathological liars & corrupters, and being easily elected with white support.

The fact is there is no convincing because the function of whiteness is and has always been to uplift and empower white sub-mediocrity, over the other not just regardless of qualifications, but in spite of it and worse still, in spite of any possible progress for the country and humanity. It's all about short-term benefits for the few over long-term for all, and the "feeling" of edification poor white people get as they ignore the saw cutting their ankles with a stubborn gaze of connection with white wealth. Hence, the absolute worst possible presidential candidate occupying that office after the above and beyond dignity of Obama. Anyway... All this comes to mind as we watch the slap saga come to a close with a "punishment" that goes well above and beyond what would have been logically necessary. People wondering why this won't go away?? Because it symbolically encapsulates *perfectly* everything articulated above. ...And even hits on the stuff I don't want to get into in this post in the question in the second photo caption (reading the majority of comments about Jada, now specifically). Anyway, meta, meta yall.

#on race #meta #will smith #for the youngins #writing #thoughts #fuck a white gaze

The best uno reverse ever pulled was the day after the Vminkook live & TKK outlandish theories they came up with & trended JMs a third wheel. called JM a liar when he said him & JK worked out everyday. Then the next day JK pulled that SO WHAT almost kiss on JM, pulling him close like, all yall antis in the crowd, see my man, hes not a third wheel. Just Jikook with the spotlight, with TKK having a front row view. Then the Jikook gym video came out later showing JM told the truth. poetic justice.

You can't fight reality.

HQ CAPTAINS AS THINGS

i was bored and felt like doing a crackfic thing but i didn’t have any solid themes or good ideas

SO I PRESENT TO YOU - THE CAPTAINS. AS THINGS. IDK HOW TO WORD THIS BUT YOU’LL SEE AS WE GO ALONG.

warnings: VERY LONG, slandering a crybaby oikawa (lovingly), mentions f!reader, shitposting, mentions of violence in kita's, (a bit) yandere!kita, cursing, unedited, me being an idiot

officer!daichi

we are: vigilante/troublemaker

loving the enemies-to-lovers trope so much

nah bro you ain’t full criminal (bc my preppy ass could never) you just do the small vandalism things y’know like drawing peepees on government buildings and knocking over bins

u literally confessed to him by spraypainting the entire billboard by his workplace “I LIKE YOU” like way to go girl

He didn’t appreciate the creative graffiti but he rlly likes u so all u had to do was clean it and then next thing u know yall are out on a cute cafe date

but let’s talk about before yall got together

he’d CHASE u thru alleyways when he’d catch you writing “police sux” on the fuckin wall

bro is NOT AT ALL afraid to jump onto the roofs it’s FRIGHTENING to see this huge ass police officer storm after u

HES SO FAST HOT DAMN WOMAN HOW DO U GET AWAY FROM HIM??? USAIN BOLT WHOMST???

you’d almost always get away by a hair - he’s SO SO close

and it frustrates him but excites u oooooo arrest me shawty

and this would continue for a while

but yall have such fun fun banter - you’d tease him and he’d say something back and you’d bolt and he’d chase

some days he’d catch you. but in those times u slip away somehow

he’s having so much fun and doesn’t even know it

and then at one point he doesn’t even care about bringing u to justice anymore. he knows it’s bad for business and it’s unprofessional but he’s so attracted to u

he doesn’t even know it. HES IN DENIAL!!! his mind: “oh i’m just asking about her so that i know her motives” bruh no u just asked about our fav pastry this aint about crime anymore

and when he finally gets it,,,DINGDINGDINGDING SOUND THE ALARMS !!! MAN IS WHIPPED!! he’s more shy around u awww,,,doesn’t even want to chase u anymore but he will still engage in banter w u.

yall get a little peace treaty in the lil crush stage - you both are kinda aware of ur feelings towards each other but don't really wanna mess it up and jeopardize whatever's going on like bros PLEASE JUST KISS ITS INFURIATING

it’s more of a competition to see who will break the other first (and you lost he’s too hot)

he lets u joyride his cop car in an empty parking lot <3 he is the one <3 this is true love

u gotta marry him right now bro no excuses

u are no longer on the crime side of the law,,,u support him and only him fuck the rest of the cops (i’m jk of course...or am i)

u are his badass sidekick <3 unofficially of course until he marries u

u help him with the small things like helping lost children find their parents and helping old ladies cross the street

but you want to do the FUN stuff - chasing thieves and arresting drunkards.

unfortunately, he loves u too much to put u in danger so he keeps u from doing the dangerous things

after some protesting later, he trusts u to take care of urself. and now yall have a competition just like old times - whoever catches the most baddies at the end of the month wins (he WILL scold u if ur too reckless though)

THE TWO OF U ARE JUST GOOD COP BAD COP UHAHAHAHAHAHA

but it’s much more complicated than that - it’s either ur the laidback one and he’s the strict one or ur the fiery one and he’s the person like “calm down”

PLEASE HE HATES BRINGING U TO INTERROGATIONS he’s trying to be serious but you keep making him laugh istg he has to kick u out each time

u still make him laugh when u pout-glare at him thru the glass

bro says he’s not the stereotypical cop but the moment u surprise him with donuts and coffee in the morning he will make out w u right then and there

even though yall dating he still won’t let u play with his equipment

but sometimes u grab his walkie talkie when he’s not looking and prank call the others

and his coworkers know by now they’re like “oh it’s daichis gf” and go along with it HAHAHAHA “this is alpha 1, daichi just contracted ligma, over.” “roger, but what’s ligma? over.” “*inhale* LIGMA-” *daichi takes the walkie talkie back*

his coworkers are chill lmaoooo they love u two as a couple THEY ARE VERY SUPPORTIVE they planned a surprise anniversary party of when u joined the force (unofficially)

the juniors tanaka and noya are jelly ooooo but they respect their captain <3

u loooooove hanging out w the starry-eyed new recruit hinata and he’s bouncing around asking u personal questions “how did you date the commander!!! what’s he like as a bf??” he also accidentally exposes how much daichi talks about u in the office before he drags him away and murders him off camera

he does get u a walkie talkie that’s just connected to his line, tho. for emergencies. it’s ur second phone basically that only has his number in it

daichi LOVES it when u massage him after he’s had a long day but his shoulders are stiff as a statue,,,he’s also super stronk and can carry u anywhere <333

IMAGINE HE HAS A POLICE DOG - he doesn’t, but he’ll get one of his buddies to bring u a k9 unit so u can pet it and when he sees how happy u are he considers getting one PLSSS IT WOULD FIT HIM HELPPP

bro is VERY strict on safety. bulletproof glass in yalls house. alarms + cameras everywhere. trackers on every device. underground bunker. (just kidding lol)

daichi teaches u self-defense and gets u a bejeweled taser for ur bday <333 MARRY THIS MAN RIGHT NOW OR I’LL-

in other words i love daichi and he is husband material WIFE ME UP BUDDY

househusband!oikawa

we are: girlboss sugar mommy

somehow you tamed this bish to becoming your obedient malewife

and by obedient i mean whiny but compliant

IS MORE ATTACHED TO YOUR BLACK CARD THAN TO YOU. I SAID IT. THE TRUTH.

sure, he’s pretty and gives affection sometimes but the only time he’s bein cute and snuggly w u is when a new fendi purse came out and he wants it

his specialty is cooking but he’s so lazy he’s all “just get the maid to do it”

please give ur workers a raise he’s so demanding

when you take him to ur business parties hes ALWAYS bragging about you and ur large house with this and that and his favorite: indoor hot tub. he always brings up the indoor hot tub.

only reason you bring him is cuz he’s pretty and he whines when you leave him alone for too long

yall cant even stay for too long - he’ll practically drag u out of the building and whining that it’s too hot and his suit is too stuffy and to call a limo

he’s not afraid to embarrass u if u dont give him what he wants and he will spit out food at a formal dinner if its not to his liking

probably in competition w househusbands! makki and mattsun about who gets the best house so he’s constantly begging u for an extension to the house “please babe!!! makki has-” “no.”

8/10 times throws tantrums in public and 1465/10 times throws tantrums in the house

he wants to cry for the sake of crying. one time he lost his shirt and he wouldn’t stop bawling for 15 min

please find him a hobby

crybaby . the moment u give him the glare of death it’s over. but he’s got a cute crying face which makes up for his annoying whimpering

like he made the mistake of throwing a temper tantrum in the mall only for you to glare at him with a look that said “we’re discussing this when we get home and you’re gonna get your ass beat” and walk away. immediately stopped what he was doing and he was running after u, sniffling and mumbling apologies

please humble him and have him sleep outside. the couch is too luxurious to banish him to. he made sure of it himself. it’s reclining and has charging ports. he will not learn his lesson that way

does NOT want you to get a pet or a kid or even another sugar baby/househusband - he wants to be the center of ur attention

speaking of which he HATES it when you work for too long or work overseas. when u come back he’ll pout at u and give u the petty silent treatment

don’t bother trying to comfort him he thrives off of it and he’ll keep going so u can keep paying attention to him. if u just ignore him back he’ll come crawling back to u. “WHY ARE YOU IGNORING ME IGNORING YOU?? DO YOU EVEN LOVE ME ANYMORE???”

one time yall got into a fight and he was all like “since ur being a rude mommy i’ll just find someone else !!!” inside u were like “oh god finally” but instead u said “okay”

ohmygod he panicked. he was rlly expecting for u to fight for him,,, but he doesn’t want to admit defeat first so he tries to go thru with it but you literally dont care. even when he has his chanel luggage packed and he’s standing by the door ur just like “ok bye bitch”

So he’s trying to stand by the door and wait for u to say that ur joking. ur not.

“fine! I’m leaving now!” “okay.” “...*sniffles*” “tooru, go.” “WAAAAH NO IM SORRY I DONT WANT TO-”

u knew this was going to happen sadly. u even hid the keys to all of the sports cars u own just in case he was actually going to go thru with it

tries to get in the gossip circle with the neighborhood trophy wives but they don’t think he’s cool enough. they like u though. they think ur hot asf and oikawa doesn’t like them no more bc theyre hitting on his ATM. but thanks to that u know all the gossip and shit even though u don’t ask for it

Every time u pass by a store where he thinks he wants something he’ll just cling to u and give the puppy dog eyes. like it could be out of nowhere and u see it and you’re like “where. which store.”

bro once he went luxury he never went back. he wouldn’t EVER step foot into a grocery store ever again congrats he’s been bimbo-ified

beat him with ur gucci belt pls it’s so funny

also please please PLEASE discipline him. tell him it’s NOT okay to just randomly purchase the entire swarovski store or to throw a party at ur house just bc he’s feeling petty about u being at work for too long. ofc he’ll bitch about it but you need to be firm

but don’t worry,,,he’ll get the idea when u take away black card privileges and slap him around (lovingly)

now he has to ask permission like a good boy. he’ll kneel and hug u and give a lil pout and whine

you got a bigass man child i’m sorry maam u should’ve picked tobio or ushi

ceo!kuroo

we are: secretary

bruh keeps it mostly professional during work hours

but that all gets shedded off like a snake when we on break

one minute he’s all “get these papers done by today or i swear on all that is holy i will destroy you” and then later he’s all “hey sweetheart wanna grab a cup of coffee”

flirty flirty FLIRTY FLIRTY AAAAA HES A MENACE

but you’re less than impressed bc y’know when the time clocks out and its time to go back to work he’s ruthless once more

HUMBLE HIM FOOL only when you’re on break though

will NOT stand for anyone else in the workplace bullyin u - NO WAY. only HIM

he’s got TONS and TONS of dirt on everyone in the office - NO ONE is safe so they wouldn’t even dare

RIP janet from accounting

that dumb bitch made the mistake of insulting u to ur face and in front of him. never heard from her again

it’s not even limited to the other employees - he’s not afraid to go off on a potential business partner if they dared disrespect you

bruh tries to call u on ur off days for the most randomest shit and to get ur attention

*picks up phone* “sir?” “ah! my favorite secretary ever! listen, i need you to grab my pens from my desk at the office and bring them to my place.” “...with all due respect, it’s 2 am, sir.”

but u have to comply with his ridiculous demands cuz he’s the bank

and he depends on u completely. as much as he hates to admit it - u have his schedules, itinerary, provide coffee, performance rates, stock info, you name it.

once u were out sick and he had the worst management - he’s not used to working without you

def tries to get some of ur workload off of u bc he’s worried that the stress of working for him made u sick + he doesn’t want to go thru scheduling again

prolly gets bored in meeting rooms and sends u little smirks and wiggles his eyebrows and weird looks while he’s sitting and ur standing in the corner like bruh pay attention

maybe sometimes he’s secretly makin fun of the presenter and doodling on his spare sticky note something funny to make u crack a smile

he’ll tease u for it of course “oh, secretary! you should be paying more attention! what would you do if this was important?” bruh i can multitask now keep airdropping me ur selfies i’m saving all of them (news flash: u dont save his dumbass selfies otherwise his ego will inflate too much)

sometimes likes to pull u aside from work to hug u - you say it’s highly unprofessional but he says it’s his stress reliever

you ALMOST got caught by one of the newbies and he was kabedon-ing you

he tries to play it off (since u were embarrassed too) but u know better,,,DO NOT LET HIM FORGET ABOUT IT he turns red and embarrassed every single time USE THIS TO UR ADVANTAGE !!

never goes into an elevator without you bruh is so attached to u n holds the doors open for you

but you have to open normal doors for him if he doesn’t know how it works (hint: manual doors. “why isn’t it opening on its own?” “sir, there’s a handle.” “but?? what does it do??”)

bruh acts like a dumbass sometimes so you can baby him :/// wtf man just because you’re rich doesn’t mean i’ll- ...wait...how much did you say…? that many zeros? HAND ME THAT FORK YES I’LL FEED YOU COME HERE- HERE COMES THE AIRPLANE BITCH

brings u to overseas trips and he spoils u too

no matter how much you insist that you’re ok he gives u a lot of luxurious items. “think of it as a bonus from me.” NOW YOU JUST HAVE A COLLECTION OF NICE SHOES/BAGS/JEWELRY AND HE LOVES IT WHEN YOU WEAR THEM TO WORK IT MAKES HIM SO HAPPY UGHHHHH

BRUH just a sugar daddy at this point “you have to look presentable for the next focus group so here’s a nice rolex watch” “sir, i don’t need-” “ah ah ah - it’s my treat.”

it’s pointless to refuse him but he still teases u for it like what???? “if i didn’t know any better, secretary, i’d say you’re just doing it for my money and not my fabulous looks and personality.” “exactly.” “hey!”

yall go for drinking parties a lot. whether with the whole branch or just the two of u

KARAOKE W KUROO AFTER A LONG DAY OF WORK <333 becomes a ritual between the two of u

he’s so silly when he’s drunk lmfaoooo goofy ass mf

but that’s only when it’s the two of u. he controls his alcohol around others and his uncool side is only for u <3

also ur the only one he trusts to take him back to his place and handle him

it’s the other way around too - when u drink a lot he looks after you <333

you have a higher tolerance than him and sometimes u have competitions between the two of u on who can drink more but then yall always end up shitfaced

HES the one who has a crush on you

you know the drill - gaslight gatekeep girlboss

he’ll do anything for u but wouldn’t ever admit it he simp

offers u the keys to his estate and offers for you to LIVE with him

bruh just marry me already ok WAIT WE’RE NOT EVEN DATING YOU NEED TO WORK ON THAT SIR-

he’s so awkward tryna confess to u,,,he may be this big hotshot ceo but he’s acting like a schoolgirl in love

probably prints u a confession when he asks u to go to the fax machine lmfao what a nerd

in other words ceo!kuroo is a nerd and you need to top him immediately get that bank

dog hybrid!bokuto

we are: owner

Husky-malamute breed!!! BEEG DOGGIE VERY HAPPY N DROOLY <333

OVERLY HYPER. JUMPS ON ANYONE AND U AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT

he’s well trained i swear but the moment he sees something of interest then i’m sorry you just lost him

the WORST things u could ever do to him is leave him and call him a bad boy

HE CRIES ON THE SPOT </3 HOW COULD YOU </3

soso bummed when u go out of the house without him </333 waits by the door patiently waiting for u to come back </333 sob sob

the moment he hears the door unlock he LEAPS and his tail is wagging like CRAZY

he is SO STRONG. almost always knocks u over whenever he jumps on u

destroys EVERY toy u bring him. u leave him for 5 seconds and there’s stuffing all over the floor and whatever u brought him is nonexistent

tugs on the leash when u walk so much that it SNAPS

loves romping w the other dogs in the dog park but he needs to tone down on his friendliness he almost killed a lil orange chihuahua

gets distracted by EVERYTHING. ooh, squirrel! oo, butterfly! OOO HUMAN CHILD!! MUST EAT!!!

ok while he might be friendly, he still gets super super jealous. you both were outside and u were petting the neighborhood black cat and bruh almost swallowed his head

which u thought was weird bc the two are normally friends and are pretty nice around each other

so now he’s more feisty around him and any other cat that’d get ur attention

If it was a person, then that’s another thing. He’d be very friendly at first but then slowly realize that ur attention is more directed on them than him. then he’d go ballistic

but when u scold him for practically assaulting the poor dude and call him a bad boy,,,he’s lost it

u have to lock him in the other room and he’s crying and whimpering, scratching at the door. all he wanted to do was protect u from that bad bad man who took away his owner’s attention !!!

def snarls at the dude next time he comes into ur house/apartment...dude never came back

“GRRR” “AAAA GET UR FRIGGIN DOG B-” “he don bite” YES IT DO GET UR-”

doggie bokuto rlly tries to be slick...it doesn’t work. like he tries to do that thing when he’s a total demon towards the guy but then act like an angel around u but it doesnt work bc he’s not smooth

doggie intelligence: 2 IQ. one time u got him a puzzle box and hid a treat in it but bruh couldnt figure it out just straight up monched the entire puzzle simply bc he smelled his fav bbq treat in it

speaking of intelligence - he only knows how to say a few words like ur name and incomplete sentences. speaks in barks and whines and sometimes a word

SO BIG THAT HE GRABS FOOD FROM THE TABLE WHEN YOU’RE NOT LOOKING

u had some delicious beef steak? oh dear, where did it go? there’s ur puppy kou with steak sauce all over his lips

big fan of hiking trips, sports, literally anything that involves going out

he LOVES getting dirty outside playing. boi cant control himself from rolling around in the mud

hates baths at first but then he likes how u spray the water on him and giggles awww he likes bath time now

we all know he’s not the brightest pup of the pack but,,,he’s somehow psychic. he knows when ur taking him to the vet

HE THROWS A BIG FUSS ALL THE TIME - sometimes he tries to hide but his huge tail under the couch gives it away

and he knows when ur thinking of taking him on a walk. he also begs u to take him outside by settling his head in ur lap and pouting until u give him what he wants

he likes the big ol doggie sweaters/pjs u buy him...but he always ruins them. no matter how much u buy him, they’re all ruined. he complains how scratchy it is and it feels weird on him

knows LOTS of tricks but if u teach him more than what he already knows he will forget one of them he’s like a damn pokemon

he feels ur emotions :((( if ur mood is down his tail droops :(( and he gives u cuddles and tries to make u feel better

he even likes to make a fool out of himself and be silly if it makes u laugh :((( he’s so precious

in other words i love doggy bokuto

pirate!ushijima

we are: kidnapped

ah yes we’re are captives of the most fearsome pirates of the seas: shiratorizawa

just so you know, tendou was the instigator. he was all “let’s kidnap a noble’s kid and get the ransom money!” (whether you actually are a noble or not is up to you)

thing is, nobody’s willing to pay (if you aren’t a noble) or the pirates really pissed off the folks in charge and are now doing a manhunt

so yeah you aren’t going back anytime soon

but he’s a pretty good sport about it - very hospitable

he notices the little things u like and gets them for u <333 sighs <333

he saw you reading that book? wow look at that, there’s suddenly a stack of them and the same genre he saw you reading

but you definitely shouldn’t test him. he’s SUPER scary when it comes down to it

you saw how ruthless he was with the rogues that had dared to challenge him on sea

mf made them walk the plank

you help on the ship bc u wanna be useful and also shirabu keeps being mean

he asks u to teach the crew how to read cuz theyre dumb as shit and only know water and treasure

speaking of treasure - when he leaves u on the ship to explore a cave, he gets u really pretty jewelry <33 anything u ask for

“oh, welcome back captain. how was your mission?” “i brought back a few trinkets i thought you might like.” *reveals whole chest of priceless gems* “are they to your liking? if not, we can set sail for something else that might interest you.” “I-”

bruh got a pet eagle - u ask the crew and they dont even know how tf it happened

hell, even he doesn’t know how it happened wtf. “oh. one day it flew down to me and i fed it. that’s all.” wtf

equivalent to diluc’s bird - he didn’t even give it a name so he gives u the honors

U name him rigatoni (you got a great naming sense btw)

oh my god oh my god oh my god HE TRIES TO PROTECT U WHEN PPL WERE TRYNA INVADE THE SHIP

it was the first thing he did no cap - burst into ur room and scoops u up <33333

“what the-” “we need to get you to safety. we are under attack.” and holds u close to his chest AAAHSIDHFPSDHFN OH MY LORD YES

HAS THE TEAM GIVE U SELF DEFENSE LESSONS AFTER THAT

tendou tries to give u a sword but ushi says no “she could hurt herself.”

“but ushiwaka! we can teach her not to hurt herself” “...it’s my orders.” “c’mon, be more honest, ushiwaka! what’s the real reason?”

he goes quiet then looks at u “...i’ll always be there to help. she’ll have me.” AOISHSDHFSNDF

HELPPPPP SIOJFDSKFJP HES SO CHARMING AND HE DOESNT EVEN TRY

but the rest of the crew are like “then what’s the point”

but tendou sneaks u a dagger just to be safe

sorry ur apart of the crew now - but they’re like a family even if they did kidnap u

oh whatever your life before wasn’t as cool as this (no offense)

they are given orders to protect u at all costs

speaking of which - ushi isn’t all that great w guns

almost blew his own head off tryna figure out how it works before reon snatched it from him

he brings you with him to towns and cities and he likes taking u to the markets to get you stuff

ushijima tell me your love language is gift-giving without telling me your love language is gift-giving-

he finds out you’re pretty good at bargaining and brings you onshore a lot more

is mesmerized at how you absolutely BERATE the merchant who was tryna rip you off like sis where is this violence coming from??? he loves it??

he also likes to stop by some pretty islands and imagines just settling down in such a nice place w you <333 SIGHS <333 VERY <333 LOUDLY <333

no matter how much he likes you...he will NOT let you drive the boat under any circumstances </3 its his livelihood c’mon man

whenever you have to stay on the ship while he’s away he sends rigatoni to give messages and the two of u talk thru messages

speaking of which rigatoni is fierce and can definitely sink his talons and his sharp beak into any bastard that dares get near you while the captain is away

wakatoshi “swimming is for pussies” ushijima - he’s water resistant

bruh so powerful he walks on water

second coming of christ who

IM JUST KIDDING he does swim but we hardly ever see it

legends say (tendou says) he looks rlly awkward doing it and only knows how to doggie paddle

speaking of our homeboy tendou - he loooves spooking the team (and especially you) with scary stories . don’t worry tho - this is all a ploy to get the beeg pirate husband to comfort u at night ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) he is ur wingman u can count on him. but his suggestions are ridiculous

“Jump off the deck and see if he’ll catch you!” um excuse me- THOU SHALT NOT PUT BIG HUSBAND TO THE TEST

he’s got good intentions...i think…

but everyone literally knows he would dive after you

in other words pirate!ushijima is a softie at heart but goddamn he probably secretly has a pet shark so dont test him or u goin overboard

mafia leader!kita

we are: associate from different group/family

kita highly respects u and yall have been acquainted since u were young with the alliance of ur families

so in a way ur childhood friends but yall do have lil bit of friendly rivalry a bit

arranged marriage whuuuutttt...yeah thats what happened but u love him <3

nobody else knows about ur arranged marriage but you two

POLITE GENTLEMAN <333 !!! HNNNNNNNN his granny raised him right even tho he’s a mafia leader

RICH BOY RICH BOY RICH BOY- ALWAYS DRESSES DASHINGLY AND SMELLS GREAT MMMMMM

he owns the majority of the underground casinos

and has lots of connections with others. countless, might i add.

you on the other hand specialize as an arms dealer so he cherishes your services the most

prob has the traditional tattoos allllll over his back and shoulders w like a dragon or sm and def a fox or kitsune

when u two were little he asked ur favorite flower and GOT THAT TATTOOED ON HIS BACK <3 probably secretly has your initials hidden in there somewhere

u both have a silent understanding of each other and he talks to u more than he does anyone

before he used to smoke but once he figured out that you didn’t like the smell of cigarettes he quit just like that

his underlings, the miya twins are so confused on how kita switches from totally brutal and ruthless to so soft around u

they can’t tease him for it, though, cuz he’d pulverize them

but they want to know more about u,,,you mysterious enigma,,,but kita would kill them if they dared asked about you

so they go to inarizaki’s most secretive informant/cyber mercenary, suna rintarou

and suna knows all about you. he saw you one time and he was curious about who you were and is now rlly scared of you because he dug too deep and you’ve got LOTS of history

he doesn’t dare tell the twins what he found no matter how much they bug him

until they bribe him at just the right price

and when aran finds out and tells kita?? ohhh boy it’s lights out for all three of them

oh my god ,,, would kill for u he loves u so much

one time you were kidnapped and held hostage

bro saw red

MAFIA ANNIHILATION SPEEDRUN ANY % NO GLITCH

he got world record time

wiped out the entire conglomerate behind it - nothing and nobody left behind after that

and of course, made sure you were safe.

yandere? ofc not...i mean...just look at him...so innocent...he would never...sharpening that knife...with splattered blood all over him...

is now joined at the hip with u,,,no matter how much you tell him you’ll be fine now and that you have tons of reliable bodyguards he won’t let it go

“don’t you have to go back to your place?” “this is my duty as both a fellow associate and your future husband.” aww,,,ur so sweet...but BRUH PLEASE GO HOME ARAN IS DOING EVERYTHING OVER THERE

makes sure to build a headquarters DIRECTLY NEXT TO YOURS so that its faster

and it’s not long until he just signs a deal to merge ur factions together (since yall getting married anyways)

and oh my god...ur underground wedding is SO SO PRETTY

absolutely DOESN’T care if he’s smuggling jewels from different countries - he’s having your ring CUSTOM MADE and the way you want it. “the diamond is too small? sure thing, darling, i’ll have it 7 times that size.”

makes sure everything is perfect in ur wedding <333 its very extravagant and even though its not really his style he’ll do anything for you

he absolutely WOULD take your last name if you wanted. FIGHT ME ON THIS

takes you to his private island for ur honeymoon so that the two of you don’t have to worry about work

meanwhile aran is scrambling around the place trying to cover for the both of you

he’s a VERY romantic husband - NEVER takes off his ring even for security. he says its practically a part of him just like you are <3

the ring has a built in tracker connected to an app. possessive? noooo...

in other words this escalated pretty quickly but i aint complaining if it gets me married to kita

--EXTRA EXTRA!! other characters’ roles!!--

officer!daichi:

karasuno squadron consists of:

cops: daichi (duh), asahi (mostly patrol, he hates confrontation), tanaka & noya (mostly accompanied by ennoshita), hinata & kageyama

investigators/detectives: sugawara, ennoshita, yamaguchi, tsukishima, kiyoko, yachi

surveillance: narita, kinoshita, tsukishima too

househusband!oikawa:

makki and mattsun are also househusbands

iwaizumi is a malewife fhasodjkasdhf-

ceo!kuroo:

lev is the newbie that walked in on u two-

janet still a bitch

kenma is his fellow ceo buddy. he also owns a multimillion dollar company and kuroo’s and his have a sort-of contract so you see him a lot in meetings

yaku is like one of the top performing managers so whenever yall have branch meetings he’s there

dog hybrid!bokuto:

kuroo is the black neighborhood cat bokuto almost murdered cough cough i did that on purpose yes i did

kenma is also another neighborhood cat. you don’t see him around that often but now that bokuto got jealous he stays far away.

hinata is the orange chihuahua i briefly mentioned

i couldn’t decide whether akaashi would stay human and be his previous owner or also be a cat/dog/owl. so lets say he’s ur human friend that is your bestie and comes over a lot. bokuto likes him, though. still gets jealous a bit.

pirate!ushijima:

tendou is practically is right hand man

the rest of the team have something to give idk how to explain pirate team members okay-

BUT BUT BUT- they do have sea rivals which are the seijoh pirates. you ran into them one day and oikawa thought you were kidnapped (you were, but you liked it there) so he tried to do you justice and failed miserably. ushijima ragdolled him into the ocean when he flirted w you.

mafia!kita:

the twins are something akin to mercenaries basically. or just plain lackeys.

suna is an informant/cyber mercenary. he gathers information about ppl which is how he knew about you. and he’s a hacker lol.

aran is his second-in-command, omimi + ginjima are his bodyguards

a/n: im going to regret posting this
