Ripred: I left instructions for everyone while I'm gone. Gregor: Mine just says "gregor, no." Ripred: I want you to apply it to every possible situation.

I kind of hate all the comparisons between kipperlily and like. Those fuckass "affirmative action fucks me over I wish I was [minority] so it would be easier" people because none of that. Is what she said. She said the bad kids already had more experience with adventuring before they got to augefort and it meant they had an advantage. Which is true. Yeah Riz was lower-class but his mum was a COP. Riz, Kristen and Fig had parents who were heroes (Sandra-Lynn is an active ranger, Kristen's parents are paladins, Sklonda is a rogue), Adaine's family was super rich and politically influential, Fabian had both. Gorgug's the only one who wasn't actively at an advantage [IN THE CONTEXT OF HAVING PRIOR KNOWLEDGE ABOUT HEROISM] and she didn't have shit to say about him. Kipperlily was the first person in her family to try heroism, the bad kids are largely legacy admissions.

Additionally to the people comparing it to the "anti-affirmative action" crowd: do you know what affirmative action is. The bad kids didn't receive special consideration on their admissions to aguefort or scholarships or additional financial support or extended assessment times or anything. How could she be mad about affirmative action if none of these people received affirmative action. What they DID have was knowledge about their classes that started much earlier than high school, which is what Kipperlily said in her file that she thought grading should be adjusted for because she did not have that.

To me it's less like affirmative action and more like augefort is like an IQ test. They pretend that it's fair and objective, but you can be taught how to do those things from a younger age, and if your parents took the time to teach you pattern recognition and shit then you'll do better on an IQ test than someone who wasn't trained for it and everyone will act like that makes you innately smarter when it doesn't. It just means someone taught you how to do that earlier.

Barring Gorgug, every one of the bad kids had access to information about heroism and their class at a younger age than Kipperlily did, which primed them for success in their classes. Every one of them got additional information about mysteries from their families (and even direct battle-tactics training from Bill), Riz especially with getting classified info out of his mum. Kipperlily does not have hero relatives. She's the first in her family line to attend a hero school. She knew nothing about it before her first day, meanwhile Kristen was already the chosen of Helio, Adaine had already been attending the best wizard school in the country, Fabian had already spent his whole life training with his father, and Riz was already involved in solving mysteries using info and tactics he got from his parents.

They aren't necessarily "privileged" (except Fabian and Adaine), but Kipperlily didn't say they were, she said that in the specific context of attending a hero school they had a prior-knowledge advantage. Saying they didn't is like comparing the grades of a kid who's academic career started with preschool with a kid who didn't attend until middle school and acting like one of them wasn't better prepared.

#like cmon people. you already hated her so you're reaching to justify it more #is it reason to be as hateful as she is? no. but she was 14 when she said the shit about riz's dad and. CRUCIALLY. kids from healthy homes #dont wish death on their parents lol. like objectively #shes not poor but neither is fabian. neither was season 1 adaine. and yet we wouldn't say their home lives were GREAT now would we #or that they had nothing to complain about just because they were economically advantaged #she thinks its unfair because she came into augefort blind meanwhile riz had been doing investigator shit for years already #and she has not learned healthy coping mechanisms. like brennan calls her anger childish and its because shes a CHILD #and she only became this cruel because she's possessed by literally the god of rage. because it was that or death #ive even seen people waxing tragic about every other rat grinder's “deal” with ankarna but acting like kipperlily was just fine with that #because she was angry already. she DIED. and having anger issues/emotional regulation issues doesnt mean you WANT TO DESTROY THE WORLD #she probably wanted to live just as much as any of the others did. and this was the sacrifice. she was 16 #d20 #fhjy #fhjy spoilers #fantasy high #kipperlily copperkettle

the Davenports going home in the Vanishing after having to explain to Daniel that his dad used to be a terrorist:

#ignore the fact that the gif is really small. idk how to fix it #but like. daniel didnt know who marcus was #and theres no way to explain all the shit douglas did WITHOUT mentioning marcus #so chances are they just. didnt tell him #poor boy is going through it. someone needs to write a fic about the aftermath of the vanishing for daniel #like he discovers he has a long-lost brother & kills said brother & finds out his dad used to be a criminal #mine #lab rats

now a dnd party with a strong bond and synergy is great and all and i'm confident that my party will get there but as of right now only about 5-6 sessions in we've had multiple shouting fights, countless threats, and one instance of pvp. now. i hope this changes. me and one guy are sort of working to fix that. but it's so fun don't discount the joys of you and your friends pretending to hate each other

#william is arlocks apprentice no one has an issue with william other than that he's a giant gecko and we dont know if he needs pants or not #arlock is. arlock is a giant situation of a human soul that was beamed into a robot body in a failed ritual to put a god in there #old enough to be avalon's dad. likes to think he's intimidating (he IS avalon just doesn't CARE) #he and avalon have an uneasy truce because they realized they have similar situations #azazel is possibly not of this realm but very sweet and told us what he knows so he's okay. similarly alister seems to be pretty up front #id say they're the normalest but that is extremely situational. they know how to communicate. alister is a bloodhunter/cleric so. shrugs #hanari is jester if jester was a mad scientist. arlock Liked hanari and then got put off by their tricks and riddles #meanwhile avalon thinks hanari is the funniest mf in the world (also i'm just super close to hanari's player and i think she's hilarious) #saint/mav the rogue-barbarian jekyll/hyde normal man and infernal patron in a human body that's a little nuked #he turns into the hulk when he's mad. saint is also very nice. maz is. maz sure is. he likes hanari and azazel #arlock and azazel got into a fistfight but it was my fault 👍 i wasn't At Fault tho. me and arlock talked afterwards hes essentially a vet #avalon's just a rat bastard. unreliable narrator #there is so much potential in here we just need to learn how to not put each other on edge #thinks about last session where we spent an hour yelling at each other on how to handle an imp that wasn't supposed to be there for that #long. our poor dm. we keep catching little demons and trying to befriend them #me and arlock are gonna kill that thing when maz and hanari aren't looking tho

Lamb telling Ratau about their relationship with Narinder speedrun

Lambert : Hi dad!

Ratau : Hi kiddo, how are you?

Lambert : I just defeated The One Who Waits!

Ratau : Well I'm just so proud of you-

Lambert : Then I spared him!

Ratau : ...what?

Lambert : And then we got married!

Ratau : What?

Lambert : And now we're expecting!

Ratau : What?!

Narinder, comes in with a bunch of cat-lamb babies : We meet again, Ratau.

Ratau :

Lambert : You're a grandfather, Dad!

Ratau : *faints*

Lambert : ...Dad?

Ratau :

Lambert : Dad? Dad, are you okay?

Ratau :

Lambert : Well shit.

~~~~~

Lambert : Listen children, unfortunately your grandpa died but don't worry, I can get him back!

Lambert, looks at Narinder wearing glasses while using an abacus : After your father counts my inheritance of course.

I just know Barbara Gordon’s pet growing up would have been two gold fish that her uncle Jim got her.

she would get SO annoyed anytime jim messes up and calls one fish the other's name too...

(also, he tries his hardest to tell them apart, really, but also just... its two goldfish. what the hell do you mean ‘you can just tell’??)

#i also like thinking she was a mouse/rat kid.... #i have a slightly weird headcanon for older! babs and how she ends up having a parrot too #also stay with me ok?? but young babs seeing an alleyway cat with a hurt leg and torn ear and #just going to jim. the ‘dad — uncle jim! please! it obviously needs help!!’ but jim puts his foot down. the house is cramped enough #and a stray cant be around an infant! what if the cat has something and scratches or bites?! absolutely not. #he gets home from work & ofc has the cat bc she had watery eyes and the poor girl did just lose her only family member and had to leave #her friends and home and everything she once had. even her own name is no longer her own.... #she deserves something thatd make her happy and make gotham feel like a home... #but huh. for an alleyway cat it sure is quite fat huh? im sure its nothing unusual and hey it is kinda cute! :) #it gives birth to 5 kittens under his bed that night because of fucking course it does #jim is so fucking tired guys. he ends up asking his weird masked friend if he knew anyone thatd want a kitten in 8ish weeks. #when given the choice; babs decides to keep the mama instead of just a kitten. (jim secretly bonds with a kitten and keeps one anyways :)) #i just think she deserves an old rescue cat... she spoils it and rants to it and it keeps her grounded to reality in a way :33 #barbara gordon #uncle gordon #thank u for the ask anon!! this is a cute hc i am officially adopting it >:33 #<- more like of-fish-ially.... #sorry.

I know I talk a lot about Helob and Sozo but I’ll be damned if I don’t have thoughts about Ratau, Narinder and the Fox too-

Oh and Plimbo.. but honestly in his case I’m just rotating him in my brain trying to figure out what the hell he is.

#the cloud can speak oh boi #don’t think I even shared these thoughts aside from my doodles/sketches.. uh- #still Sozo and Helob get priority since I have an interest in bugs/arachnid behavior #but the others- ough the others #about Plimbo tho- at first I was sure he was a lizard/chameleon or something #but he got three sets of limbs so uh?? sir are you a bug?? #don’t tell me he is a mantid-I’m making a fan character that is one and I’d have to change the whole thing A- #…confusion aside- yeagh;; a lot of thoughts about them all;; #especially poor Ratau- I di be sobbing for rat dad #;w;

Wh??? The pomera dm 30 isn't even that??? Expensive?? What???? My laptop, which I mostly use to read tbh, cost me $500??????? Not a flex btw, at the time buying it was almost painful bc I didnt even have a job or steady income.

Sure, I got it for uni classes originally. But that's fucking irrelevant???? If I want to use it solely to read fanfics it's my own damn money???? Goddamn people will really complain about anything.

Anyways, enjoy your pomera!!! It looks like a lovely writing experience tbh!! I hope it helps you fall even more in love with writing!!! And I'm sure it was money well invested!

yeah, it really is not an outrageous purchase considering i use it to write almost every day! (not just fanfic either, but i don’t even know why anon had to mention that in a condescending way as if it would be a bad thing for me to use it solely for fic? it’s the same w your laptop. it’s your device and you can use it for what you want to use it for!!) but YEAH the pomera is something i budgeted for and i post about it because i think it’s a very useful device that helps me a lot with productivity and it’s fun to write on so i’m excited ab it u know! i don’t do it to brag i talk about it because i love it and i think it’s a great thing for writers. thank you for the nice message IT REALLY DOES do wonders for my writing i love it dearly!!! sending u love!!

#cherub.mail #cherub.anon #i also didn’t appreciate the financial implication anon was making bc . i grew up fucking poor LMAO i used to eat dinner with a #little cardboard box as a table 💕 my dads apartment had rats in the oven and boxes stacked up to #the ceiling because he could only afford to rent a place where other ppl were hoarding stuff 💕 #i was flat broke not even a year ago because i couldn’t work due to a crippling anxiety disorder! #u know jack shit about me <3 #it’s like. fuck u anon. let me enjoy my nice things i worked hard for. 😀 #and enjoy the free fic i put out! lmaooo

it's good 🤍

#*throws hand over face* “i rushed away to vent my virgilian grief in solitude . . . .” #“you should have written! you should have ruined yourself!” #mendelsohn calling him a freak in a letter to his dad #the first time he enters a charnel house as a medical student he climbs out of the window of it and runs home because it scared him so bad #i'm just trying to imagine what that situation was like #that he felt like the only/best thing he could do was like absconding through a window #as opposed to leaving through the door he presumably entered through #i mean the description of the charnel was horrible like rats gnawing on cadaver body parts everywhere #later in life he had to have harriet smithson's remains exhumed and buried elsewhere because the graveyard was going to be abolished #and the way he describes her (in detail; decayed; head having seperated from her body) and calls her /poor Ophelia/... #“I remember the dull sound . . . and the odour. . . .” #I HAD TO STAND UP AND WALK AROUND BRO.

How would Josuke react if he found out Rohan did actually use HD on Bean? 💀

RIP Rohan. I highly doubt Rohan would because that means admitting defeat. If he uses his stand, it means Bean got the best of him and he wouldn't be able sleep peacefully at night knowing that. "I'm no better than his cheat of a father." I'm not a huge Rohan fan but he's not an awful guy. He seems to know when it's appropriate to use his stand, usually if he feels like he might be in danger. Even if he called it out because Bean was giving him a hard time, I don't think he'd use it. For the sake of this ask though, let's say he did.

There are three things that Josuke as a father does not play about: his hair, his you, and his Bean. Rohan would get very close to being put on a t-shirt. When Josuke realizes (if Rohan is still at your house), he'd abruptly but politely ask you to take your kid to the nearby park for a few minutes. You see Josuke's eye twitch a certain way and you know not to ask anymore questions. Rage isn't even the word for what Josuke is feeling. Becoming an adult as well as a parent has really taught him how to reign in his temper. He doesn't want his son to see him beating anyone because violence isn't the answer lol. Josuke is dead silent until you guys pull out of the driveway and are down the street. You have to give it to Rohan. He tries. He really tries to talk his way out of it, but Josuke is far beyond reason. Josuke told him not to use his stand. He said he wouldn't. And he did it anyway. Rohan will spend months in the hospital and even longer in physical therapy. His bones will hurt whenever it rains. The doctors will tell him that's he's very lucky he doesn't have to spend the rest of his life eating solids through a straw. Josuke won't even bother healing him up either. Rohan never babysits Bean EVER AGAIN. Josuke doesn't care if people thinks he blew things out of proportion. Nobody lays a finger on his kid.

#'Babe how about you take Bean to the park #‘I’ve gotta deal with Rohan really quick 🙂“’ #you can probably hear Rohan screaming from the park #I’d say poor Rohan but if he used his stand on Bean #he deserves it #Josuke would beat the brakes off of Rohan #and not even heal him afterwards just like the first time #Josuke doesn’t wanna expose his son to violence so he keeps his cool until Bean is out of earshot #then Josuke just lets Rohan have it #dad!josuke #Josuke #josuke higashikata #Rohan kishibe #rat man Rohan #jjba #anonymous #audri speaks

Ramp and Shake have a very funny relationship to me because it's just Shake disappearing for half a year and then texting Ramp the most roller coaster ass life updates at 4am while Ramp just stares at their phone like : |

#rat rambles #oc posting #even as kids this was basically their relationship with shake just vanishing for months on end and then showing up at their place and #being like ya dw my dad just took me on vacation for a lil while 👍. I got to see some rly big trees and found some sick ass bugs and made #a new friend!

[trying to break the work bloger habbit]

anyway. the new turtle game (splintered fate) which is only on apple arcade (a travesty cause 1. i dont have apple product and 2. all turtles games should have physical releases cause oh boy the licensing) is kinda god tier. im not biased no trust me.

nah i just mean fits perfectly into these 2 turtles fans lives cause bro is playing and i can watch via screensharing stuff (good for my hands which i damage with gaming just. way too frequently and thats not a joke). any its like one of rogue-likes with the rng upgrades things. so even tho im not playing still fun to shoot the shit and debate you know crit hit increase vs elemental damage upgrade. whatever. this too is a vector for play.

and its got like a really fun mix of iteration traits? like i guess its idw comics based but it has vibes from a few of the shows too. very funny to unpick whats happening in that regard (one of the villains is THE MAYOR. very funny). and well its nice when theres a video game with all the various chatter and banter that IS ABOUT THE THING u like and think about all the time. wish everyone could have this experience honestly lol.

suprisingly will even hit on emotional themes and motifs too. lose to a boss get a pep talk from ur dad... hell yeah. the vas are doing good to great work (splinter is paul nakauchi who rules and is. notably. japenese american. also fucking sonic VA is raph)

not really a point to this post other that to say a thing that beens happening that i actually enjoy. hope one day they release it on a real platform,,, for a flat price not a subscription. without the phone quality crunching it would look really good... also maybe better ui. why do phone game menus look like that...

also ofc its a turtles game one of the damage types is ooze... thats just fun to say. ooze based build.

ahaha. posting this interuppted by my lunch and being told he finally got past another boss with a sick as shit build.... ARGH i wanna see it...

#some shit #work blogging as in bitching about work on my blog lol #i will continue to blog at work. ofc #OTHER thing he told me (game premise is smth kidnapped their dad) after beating whatever boss u get his cane back #and dialogue lines about hey he needs that... where ever he is. SO TRUE. feel blessed by this even tho i did not witness it. #think of the poor rat man and his knees. give him the fucking [i forgor the term. canes and walkers and rollers etc] #turbles...
