i think talia is such a romantic and she'd be so supportive of jon trying to marry damian. please more hc's i need them
STOP! I’ve always wanted to talk about them!!!! Jon and Talia always had an interesting dynamic with the way that Jon feels the need to actively defend Damian from her because he doesn’t know how complicated their relationship is but just how Damian has been affected by it. I feel like by this time Jon and Damian already had an intense conversation about his mother and he understands her a bit more but still can’t help but follow his instincts and defend Jon if Talia so much as fixes her lips to call Damian a weapon…
But if they wouldn’t be able to fight or so much as argue because no matter what they’d hurt Damian. They both always have Damian’s best interests at heart and If anything Talia is very traditional and would see a kryptonian as genetically perfect to be by Damian’s side but in a way it comforts her to know Damian is safe. That’s Talia’s biggest concern as his mother and if Jon is 1. Someone who makes Damian incredibly happy. And 2. Is able to keep him safe then why wouldn’t she like Jon for Damian?
As long as this marriage means that Jon is willing to devote his life to serving Damian’s every need then she’s totally fine with it. I mean she’d never wanna take that away from Damian, she loves him too much. I’d love to see these two interact, Jon gets on Batman’s case about Damian all the time and he’d probably be the same on Talia. I don’t think their relationship would be very domestic but I know that it would be interesting and sweet to have these two opposing forces coming together on a shared interest.
Just imagining Talia telling Jon “Keep him safe for me.” AUGH, my heart.
I feel like Damian would be SHOCKED to find that Talia approves but mostly on a level as to where they ARE kind of traditional so the topic of them being both boys would likely make Damian shy away from that conversation and secondly, Jon now is something that makes Talia see him as weaker: “In love,” but… really, she’s been trying to step away from that recently because she sees how Damian balances his heart and head.

"Hey, Skater-brain. Heard it's your birthday." Hanekoma grinned and leaned against the counter beside him. "Come take a break. I gotta present for ya."
He waited until Beat was settled and then passed over a box wrapped carefully and tagged with Beat's name. Inside was another piece of Hanekoma's favorite type of presents to give, exclusive, one-of-a-kind Gatito merchandise. Though, he was sure Beat probably wouldn't recognize the brand or connect the dots as to how he could have gotten ahold of such a piece.
This time is was a new set of headphones. He remembered when he had designed the headphones that would go on to be a staple of Neku after a time, and he had done what he could to improve on that design. The color theme of these were much closer to Beat's current set, and he tried to keep the silhouette of them just as sleek. But he had played around with different materials and had worked until he had a more secure fit around the padding to better cancel out outside noise. He'd also set them up to interact with an app where the equalization could be customized to fit Beat's specific preferences for sound. And finally, he'd taken Beat's favorite defining symbol and had plastered one side with a skull motif to complete the look. A QR code was printed on a slip of paper inside the box with the headphones that went to the download page for the accompanying app, and Hanekoma would make sure he didn't miss it while he was examining his new gift.
It may have been Beat's special day, but it was also a regular weekday, so he still rolled up as usual to volunteer at Wildkat (and also as usual, was a little-too-rough on the poor front door when he arrived). But before he'd even stepped in far enough to push up his sleeves and ask what his task was for the day, Mr Hanekoma was already passing him a box and telling him to take a break.
"Seriously--?" It wasn't such a surprise that Hanekoma knew the day, even if Beat couldn't remember ever telling him. But to go as far as to prepare him a gift... not that Beat would complain, but didn't he understand that he'd already given Beat more than he could ever repay?
He tore the wrapping away from the box and pulled it open, taking no time to savour the mystery of what was inside. An awed "Holy shit" left him as he uncovered the new headphones and took them -- with much more care than he'd unwrapped them with -- in his hands. His smile grew as he inspected them, fingers passing over the custom decal in engrossed wonder.
Beat was not the audiophile Neku was (yet), but he'd picked up enough from his best friend to recognize that he was holding something ridiculously high-quality. Probably too high-quality to entrust to a rough, irresponsible teenager like him, to be honest... but he knew that Mr Hanekoma wouldn't be giving them to him if he believed that, which made the gift mean that much more. And of course, when he slipped the phones over his head, the fit was perfect.
He met Mr Hanekoma's eye. "So these're-- mine?" was all he could make himself say that wasn't just happily impressed swear words. It was a stupid question, and at the most surface level he knew the answer was yes, but it wasn't properly sinking in. It felt like these were too special for him, that a simple birthday was too flippant an occasion to give away something this slick, that he still hadn't returned enough favours to Mr Hanekoma to earn it.
"Man, you could'a jus' sang 'Happy Birthday', y'know? These things are too damn cool!"

You holding up okay? Need anything, or just to vent?

in my senior year a soc studies teacher got busted for being part of a heroin operation in like the middle of the year. he was holding a cooler of heroin (20 grams at the time) and cash for the dealer in exchange for product. he was also selling suboxone and percs himself. big meme at school was that in his phone records they found him googling "can I be charged with drug trafficking based on text messages". originally got 4 charges but his very $$ lawyer got it down to one count of possession and he only got like 3 years.
a while later he got cancer and his rich parents with connections got the governor to pardon him and he changed his facebook pfp to DB Cooper
THE WHIPLASH THAT I GOT READING THIS ASK, ANON. OH MY GOSH. 😀 This post is pure art and I love it. I have nothing else to say besides thank you so much for this contribution. This shit is fantastic.
