Does anyone have recommendations for plants to keep in apartments here in Gotham? I'm looking to expand my little collection now that I have gotten a proper light setup going for them!
Asking for two reasons:
—Firstly, while I have a small balcony, putting ANYTHING on there is a hazard anymore with the number of vigilantes on patrol. I don't want to end up accidentally killing one of them with pottery shards if they came crashing onto it at some point.
—Secondly, ordering ANY KIND of exotic plant in Gotham gets you some shifty eyes from neighbors (many of which know NOTHING about plants by the way). No, my fern is not a "drug plant". She is a Davallia fejeensis, and works hard to look so beautiful.
It is very concerning that my lease specifically mentioned no carnivorous plants being allowed.

Pure Project + Smog City Beneath the Canopy Murky IPA (Picked up at Windmill Farms). A 3 of 4. Pretty classic West Coast hop profile on this with lots of pine/resin and some orange citrus too, with a bright tropical complexity layered on top. Quite tasty and well-done, and a clean, slightly juicy body has enough bitterness to balance. Nice beer benefitting the National Forest Foundation.

re "gotham must be beautiful" post: don't forget the cheap as shit rent the rogue gallery creates
im sure in some areas the rent is extremely affordable, but i also think overall, in thanks to both the gallery and just the general allure of gotham, it just has good rent prices in general. i think the beautiful gothic architecture combined with modern appliances combined with fair rent prices would cumulate into a city that attracts people to at least try and vacation there
the hope of spying a vigilante i imagine would also inspire some people to visit, even if that means you'll likely also spy a villain if a vigilante comes around ksjfnkdsjf

Hawke and Anders break the law and have a romantic midnight dance under the stars ✨ [ mhanders ]. Thank you for the prompt, barbex!
@barbex said: a dance in the park
"They call it a park but it's really just a small patch of grass with flowerbeds surrounding it on the outside," Hawke commented unimpressed.
"It's also the Viscount's private property. We shouldn't be here," Anders hissed and half-heartedly attempted to pull his hand out of Hawke's grasp with no success.
"Oh I'm sorry," Hawke begins with a grin, "I didn't know you were so concerned with following the law, Serah 'My Very Lifestyle Breaks The Law."
Anders sighed. Hawke was technically right. Anders broke the law on a daily basis, some days severely more than others. However-
"There are simply good reasons for breaking the law and potentially bringing attention to oneself, and then there's this." He gestured towards the sad excuse of a garden park.
"Aww, so a midnight dance with your boyfriend is not a good reason, is that it?"
Hawke was playing dirty, Anders was positive of that. What with the exaggerated pout and the puppy eyes. It was totally unfair! His shoulders sagged in defeat and Hawke beamed at his victory, dragging Anders through the flowerbeds and into the grass.
It was a beautiful night, the sky was clear and the wind was blowing Lowtown's smog away from Hightown so the stars were visible and sparkling like jewels.
Hawke pulled Anders close and placed one hand on his waist and took Anders's hand in his other. He clearly had a ballroom dance in mind, and quickly detected Anders's discomfort.
"Hey, it's fine, I suck at this too, much to mother's dismay," he reassured Anders before bringing their chests flush together and swaying them slowly on the spot.
"Aren't we too close for this type of dance?" Anders teased. He definitely didn't mind the closeness, Hawke's warm body was keeping him warm on this cool autumn night.
"Hmm, this is the Hawke Special version, just for you." Hawke pulled away just enough to deliver a quick kiss to Anders's lips.
They danced for a while, Anders losing himself in Hawke's embrace and warmth, swaying to a tune that Hawke was humming rather badly. It was such a lovely night.
"Hey, you two! That is a private property!"
"Shit!" Hawke hissed before dragging Anders away from the Viscount's pathetic excuse for a green space. The guards in their heavy armor were no match for Anders and Hawke's speed. Laughter bubbled in Anders's throat as they run towards the Amell estate. He had always wanted a partner to run away with, albeit not for quite the same reason. But it felt exhilarating nonetheless.

Standing on top of a hill and witnessing your city on the dawn light, the flat clouded sky letting that golden light become muted to where staring the way of the rising sun no longer hurts, standing in that cold and looking upon these great two cites where millions of people live.

Late yesterday afternoon. Usually we can see across the river, but the Canadian wildfire smoke continued to blow in to block the view. It’s the worst episode that has occurred in a while according to local news. Our planet is extremely upset right now.
