yea so the thing with steph's death is that i'm genuinely of two minds here actually:

on one hand it *does* fall under the traditional complaints of fridging being that it was a senseless, violent death of a female comics character whose death is used largely to cause bruce & tim pain ergo she was fridged

on the other hand, unlike a lot of female characters who have been fridged through the years (babs being the big one, shondra kinsolving being another huge one), steph's death and the lead up to it, despite dripping in misogyny, actually do lend her a ton of agency and personal narrative growth specific to *her* that other senseless female deaths and maiming aren't usually afforded. the fact that her death has an entire narrative arc leading up to her death (misogynistic as it may be) about her learning and deciding for *herself* what being a hero truly means to her, her fortitude despite black mask's torture and her pushing through to get herself to leslie's clinic to still try and help despite the horrors she just underwent is there to further *her specific* heroic narrative leading up to her death, not necessarily just to cause bruce pain. even her death--which has a lot of very problematic aspects to it, don't get me wrong--is focused on whether she finally achieved her goals of being a good hero, what she always wanted to be. it's horrific and misogynistic, but the entire event of war games leading to steph's death revolving and stemming from steph's mistakes -> steph's redemption->steph's death is fundamentally about her and her agency leading into her death. it's not until war crimes when it comes out she was actually killed specifically to character assassinate another female character in bruce's life & cause him anguish about leslie's betrayal that makes it more of a fridging than her actual death and the events leading up to it.

#does this make sense idk #the thing about fridging being that. it does need to only be about the man & the man's response #but a character's death is almost always inherently there to further another character's motivations #so a character death at its core isn't necessarily fridging even if it's in the service of another character's story #because death means things to people & if a death carries the appropriate amount of narrative weight #then it's just a part of the story being told #anyways honestly gavin king was the main fridged character of war games. he had absolutely no agency in his death.

i too am such a phone addict but remember when you’d go over to a friends house when you were little and you’d spend a bit of time on the desktop computer but thennnn the rest of the day you’d have to lay around and invent things and be strange and make up all these beautiful worlds and ideas and you couldn’t scroll to fill silence i miss that and i miss being bored !

im not sure how one would go about beginning to measure or track this but something i think could be really interesting is looking into common fanon perceptions of character pre-3rd life and post-3rd life and seeing how the series shaped their characters because i really think that was a Peak Moment in terms of fandom recognising characters separate from ccs and i have to wonder if that means the "personality" put forward in 3rd life has a very high influence on how they are now perceived and portrayed

Humiliation + praise is like… please make me embarrassed for being so horny and needy and perverted but please tell me its okay. Not that im not being embarrassing right now - i should be embarrassed for being so wet and pathetic. but youre going to fuck me anyways because this is just who i am, i look so pretty like this and i cant help it, and you cant help wanting to feel how tight i am and what pretty noises i make when i finally get whats coming to me. stupid little prettyboy slut

the thing is that in succession capitalism and abuse are one and the same. people tend to talk about it like they’re two discrete themes but really you can’t separate one from the other. capitalism is a metaphor for abuse and abuse is a metaphor for capitalism. logan and the chase for his approval represents the deception of capitalism that if you play the game right, you can beat it. you can win. you can succeed financially and be satisfied. but the goalposts keep shifting. you cant win. you have to. logan is capitalism and capitalism is a distant abusive father. and that’s why the roy siblings can’t let go of either one

having many thoughts about bakugou stuffing his cock into you like literally, having to push it in because you’re squeezing him so tight and he’s just so big :( but you keep telling him you want it all, you wanna be drunk on his cock

he can’t exactly say no to you when you’re moaning and whining for him like that

to be fair i don't know what i'm talking about BUT saw this girl on instagram say it's a red flag for a guy to be "friendly with other girls" which like. again i don't have experience with romantic relationships with men however on a purely platonic & interpersonal level i do not trust men who *don't* have close platonic female friends like if the only women a man has close relationships with are his relatives and the women he's sexually/romantically involved with that tells me that he isn't interested in women who aren't directly giving him something & i'm more inclined to trust men who are able to spend time with women and take them seriously as people with personalities without them being either blood relatives or romantic partners

smth i just noticed for the bad boys in jimmy's final session is that

grian, cursed to always kill those he loves most, resists pressing the tnt button when talking with ties. last session the reason why he would always press buttons is because "i'm me" aka hes fighting against his literal like. evolutionary code to not kill jim. eventually, he ends up killing jimmy by suggesting he try to push the tnt minecart.

joel, most known (not necessarily a curse ?) for his bloodlust and recklessness when turning red, and his subsequent isolation from the alliances he was in, was planning to sacrifice his time for jimmy. and when he is unable to, he snaps and becomes even more reckless. all that extra time lost w goof offs ends up in him running out of time.

and jimmy. i mean he tried but damn this curse got hands

i mean as a group they all go against everything they know to break their curse. but players can never win

Wip Wednesday

...A scene from the Rook Lives AU :) the only reason I decided it should be a retelling of Book 1 is just so I can rewrite this patrol scene in this specific way. and now that I've written this scene (ish, you'll see) maybe I can write all the math I should have been writing all this time lol.

Tagging (no pressure to look at this or to do a wip wednesever or anything!!): @serenpedac @agentnatesewell @itsren-again @ava-du-mortain @amlovelies @nerdierholler (and anybody who wants to do it!)

"Is it…?"

"Yes, yes, but I won't let---" If he can just cover her scent, what will cover the scent of her blood? Think, think, blood, what does he know about blood, everything he knows about blood he learned from her, this lovely scientist, and…

"Nate."

His eyes drop to his belt buckle. Vampire blood.

"Nate." He feels a gentle finger on his chin, angling his face back to hers. Warmth floods his chest at her touch and her calm tone, wars with the fear of losing her. "Hug me for a second."

He leans down to envelope her in his arms, as if he could hide her. The scent of her blood floods his nostrils, and he worries it isn't working. But he can hear the uptick of her heartbeat, as well as his own as she rests her hands against his chest. He lets himself focus on her face, illuminated by the light of the moon. Dark brown eyes gaze back at him, so much deeper than what he's seen through the phone screen.

(He remembers seeing her face through the phone screen for the first time, amazed by the way she lit up as she explained the intricacies of mutated blood. Thinking it had to be a trick of technology. No, modern technology has not yet advanced enough to capture her charms.)

"Did it work?" she breathes.

He closes his eyes, focuses his senses outward. The vampire is gone, or at the very least, is no longer moving towards them.

"I think so," he answers. He tries to give a reassuring smile.

"Maybe we should stay like this for a while just in case."

His smile turns genuine, certainly not opposed to the idea of staying close to her for as long as necessary. As long as possible. He tugs her ever so slightly closer. "You're brilliant."

"I know a thing or two. Attraction can mask the smell of blood."

"Then nobody should find you as long as I'm around."

"Are you calling me attractive or painfully obvious?"

"You must know that I haven't needed to know the intricacies of blood as much as I've needed to hear your voice." "And you are certainly not obvious."

"I could…clarify some things for you."

#does this make sense idk #i feel like the theme of this retelling is the price and power of knowledge #but e.g. one power is making nate not hurt himself unnecessarily #really really it's just an excuse to progress their relationship faster #rook lives au #i know the context isn't clear bc avery's not a detective anymore lol it's not clear to me either #cw: blood #but like only the word lol

I was listening to Margaret by Lana Del Rey and thinking "wow this is so romantic" and then actually listened to the lyrics and I feel like it pairs so nicely with my Jake head scenario. You're always with someone when he happens to be single, telling him about your boy problems and asking him "how do you know?" And he's always giving you advice and saying "if you're asking how you know then the answer is no" and you never understand it until you realize you've been wasting your time on all those other guys because it's been him all along
