Fenton Coded

Tim... Tim just stared.

He...

Huh.

He had once entertained the idea that he wasn't really a Drake, a very long time ago when he overheard his mom and dad arguing and some words were said in the heat of the moment, but to be honest Tim always thought the obvious culprit of anyone being his dad would most likely be Bruce (Bruce even admitted he had a small fling with his mother but that was two years before her marriage)

But before little Tim's curiosity could really take hold on the idea, he had saw on the news Robin performing a Grayson flip and the hint of Tim not being a Drake left his mind. Robin was Dick Grayson! And if he was Robin that had to mean Bruce Wayne was Batman!

Then well... his stalking of the Bats started and the rest became history.

But now, as Tim was staring at his own DNA test, something he never bothered to do until that damned Demon brat wanted to make sure he was ONLY blood son of Bruce (and doing a DNA test something even Bruce never thought of doing due to well… how he was towards Tim during his first months as Robin)

He well…

He kinda needs to find out who this Daniel Jackson Fenton is.

(Tim finds out he isn’t a Drake, but also not a Wayne (because Damian wanted to make sure he was only blood son) but is instead a Fenton)

I have a type:

Abandoned by their families,

Left to fend for themselves,

Have a fake birthday,

In love with their older brothers,

Will do anything for them,

Including LEAVING FOR FOUR YEARS,

Buy sentimental pieces of jewelry

Cheers to my sloppy drunks

#eddie and yuan my favored sons #they are the special-est guys #they love their brothers and their birthdays #unknown the series #kiseki: dear to me #unknown #these two men are my favorite obsessions #I have a type #and it's called PAIN

"On a night of wint'ry fog, the rune of Death was stolen. And the demigods began to fall, starting with Godwyn the Golden." Framed it to juxtapose the piece with Morgott and Mohg.

With the reveal that Aduo didn’t actually want to be the mother of the nation, looks like we now have a concrete path to a happy ending for Jinshi.

Though I actually really want to see him as the Emperor one day (at least for a time), it would be thematically appropriate if Jinshi takes not after the Emperor, but after Gaoshun and becomes the retainer of the future Emperor.

#knh spoilers #kusuriya no hitorigoto #the apothecary diaries #jinshi #aduo #maomao #looking at gaoshun and taomei #it does solve everything #jinshi would still be able to be close to the seat of power #and do good for the nation #in guiding the future emperor the same way gaoshun guided him #since he’s not power hungry he would have the emperor’s interests (not just as the leader of the nation) but as a family member at heart #and at the same time he wouldn’t be pressured to take in more than one spouse #maomao would be free to explore the nation as she pleases #the history of the owner of the jade plaque with the favored son of a former emperor #abdicating and eventually being given a name #seems to be foreshadowing for what will happen even if Jinshi’s true heritage does get out #I’m sure factions will try to use him as a piece #but in the same vein that maomao decided her own fate herself #it would make sense for Jinshi to achieve what he wants to do regardless of the circumstances of his birth #and it would be sweet if he took after his foster father #win win solution for everyone really #yeah ok I’ll be fine even if jinshi doesn’t become emperor as long as he becomes retainer #maomao would be better leading medical reforms rather than be an empress too #it would also be subversion of the usual chosen one will lead tropes #yeah no how about the secret prince becomes the mentor instead

— If you create us a kingdom, we will write the book of our future. The future of the Church, of the world we live in will be ours, yours, and your children's. You say nothing? Why do you think we wished you a cardinal? So you would be Pope one day. Carve us out a kingdom, Cesare, and be both king and pope. I am stunned into silence.

#this scene is just so powerful even though cesare didn't have lines #cesare was proven wrong after all the time he was thinking juan was the favorite... #he came to the realization that even though rodrigo saw so much of himself in him... #he still planned from the beginning to make cesare his true heir!!! #in this scene he was brought relief and a sense of validation after years of feeling inadequate... #like he always intended for cesare to succeed him in the church from the very startwhich was the only way that truly mattered to rodrigo #but ces has always viewed being the leader of the papal army is The prestigious position so he envied juan thinking rodrigo was favoring hi #and when rodrigo shared his dream of creating a papal bloodline to be passed down to cesare and his own son? #cesare's perspective shifted <3 #the borgias #theborgiasedit #cesare borgia #cesareborgiaedit #perioddramaedit #tvarchive #tvedit #cinemapix #tvgifs #tvcentric #by jen

If this episode did anything, it kind of hammered in for me the fact that the only Bad Kids with biological siblings (until Fabian's half-siblings inevitably show up) are the Bad Kids with absolutely horrible parents

Kristen's the big sister who had to be the protector and left her brothers without a shield despite needing that space to grow, and Adaine's the little sister who grew up being second-best and overlooked, having to teach herself how to live yet still desperate to prove herself

God that is so fucking sad

#and if we do see one of fabian's siblings the situation is still gonna be angsty #it'll be a “favored legitimate son vs. abandoned illegitimate kid” situation i just know it #i'm an only child why am i crying over the siblings! #dimension 20 #fantasy high #fantasy high: junior year #kristen applebees #adaine abernant

"Iroh ignored Azula” Well what if I didn’t believe that and the greatest irony of Avatar is that Iroh was one of the folks who encouraged her strategic thinking that she would use to later hunt him down

#atla #Azula #Iroh #my art #did he fail her? Yeah probably #homeboy had his own set of issues like continuing his father's conquest #he really didn't have time for either her or Zuko #and if Zuko really was born kind of meek to a very competitive family #who's to say Iroh paid much attention to him? #And put favor towards Azula? #and then he's gone for the siege and then an unknown amount of time for his spirit journey #and comes home and Azula is firmly not interested in Iroh #but Zuko who has been ignored and belittled by his father may seek Iroh out #to which Iroh would be open to but he's still messed up over his own issues #and being on the boat during Zuko's exile creates that bond #So Iroh would escape the favoritism aspect of the Fire Nation and show love towards the 'imperfect' son #while Azula has Ozai's favor #Which itself isn't healthy #but idk I can't hate Iroh for a series of events set before his time in which there's going to be a definite loser #and he's already lost #so he's going to try and help someone even if he doesn't really know how nor does he have the motivation at first #but then his care for Zuko grows and he realizes he wants that again and will do what he can #I'll gladly take the imperfect character who at least tries to have his heart in the right place

This shot, though.

This shot is so good. At this exact moment, he’s staring at his reflection on the tokijin and says, “Useless”. They didn’t have to time it that way or have him staring at his reflection on his beaten down very worn sword as he said it, but they freaking did.

*goes feral* *gnaws through metal* *claws at the screen*

I freaking love this moment.

Are they using tokijin as a representation of his mental state? It feels like they’re using tokijin as a representation of his mental state. Which makes him using tenseiga to protect himself and his brother after even better, because tenseiga is a sword of healing.

#Sesshomaru your daddy issues are showing #sesshomaru #Inuyasha #swords of an honorable ruler #Inuyasha movie 3 #he so obsessed with power and surpassing his father but he was given a sword of compassion #and he’s so busy fighting with Inuyasha instead of working together rhag they can’t kill their foe #but to Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru feels cheated and convinced Inu is the favored son. and that with their dad dead he can’t properly surpass #him. and because he is unable to surpass he’s unable to defeat who should be an otherwise easily defeated foe. #and then they frame the shot of him saying USELESS while looking at his reflection on his worn down sword #in this essay i will

desperately need people to understand that alicent is a victim but she’s also an abuser and a perpetrator

that she actively makes choices to harm other women because of jealousy and envy and the greed deep in her bones because submitting to suffering didn’t get her what those women fight to grasp for themselves.

she is absolutely a victim, in show.

that doesn’t change that she abused rhaenyra and her children, her own son, most likely helaena given how she flinches every time her mother touches her, and is actively weaponizing the patriarchy of westeros against other women- rhaenyra primarily, but also mysaria and dyana.

she isn’t the moral, righteous force of good that even she thinks she is, she’s a wounded woman directing all of the rot, pain, and fury inside her at the wrong people and forces.

#anti team green stans #anti team green #anti alicent hightower stans #i don’t wanna say it’s anti alicent bc honestly it’s more ‘accept her for who she is bc she’s so much more complex and interesting when you #but i made this bc someone genuinely tried to say that the reason people hate her is that they don’t see her as a victim #most rational people know show!alicent is a victim #it’s the point that’s she’s an abuser as well #that makes them dislike her #that she’s a hypocrite and a traitor #i don’t even like young alicent bc i don’t at all think she was a good friend to rhaenyra #‘it’s not your place to question the plots of lords and men’ to the named heir #dismisses rhaenyra’s hopes and idealism entirely out of hand #is baffled that rhaenyra is more worried for her fathers happiness and mother’s wellbeing than her position #she knew as early as ep 3 that otto was conspiring against rhaenyra and never told anyone #condemns ‘targaryen customs’ only to wed her daughter to her son even younger than she was when otto dangled her before viserys #acts entitled to rhaenyras secrets whilst condemning and judgemental even though she did not give rhaenyra that same courtesy #made no attempt at apology for the insensitive comment of aegon’s birth #though rhaenyra DID try to apologize for the ‘imprisoned in a castle’ line and tried to comfort her #uses her power as queen to push past the space rhaenyra is trying to create because she feels heartbroken and betrayed #rhaenyra took part in alicent’s culture with prayer at alicent’s urging because she cared about alicent and alicent was trying to help her #alicent is never once shown to return that favor instead condemning it for ‘queerness’ and growing to later #erase and remove all targaryen and valyrian heraldry from the red keep to replace with her own #like alicent is a victim and i DO have empathy for her. but i don’t like her and never will #especially not after the way her stans behave #she deserved better than otto’s machinations and viserys’…. viserysness #but that can also be true whilst i condemn her actions and behaviors

Super late, but 5 hc ask game where Giran gets a kid showing up at his doorstep who says his name is Izuku and his mother recently died and he was given instructions by her to seek him out if anything happened to her. Giran recognizes his mother's name and remembers he had a relationship with her years ago. Upon further investigating he realizes this is his son.

1- It's not super unusual for teenagers to knock on Giran's door. Usually they're delivery boys or messengers, but sometimes they're customers in their own right or looking for recruitment. This kid, however, clearly has no idea who he is: "Um, hi, sorry to intrude, my- my mom told me that if anything happened to her, I should find you. I'm- her name's Midoriya Inko, I'm Izuku." (Giran initially wondered if he's the son of someone he placed who got in trouble there, but then he hears Inko's name, and she wasn't a customer. He waves the kid in and asks what happened.)

2- Izuku's been at a group home the last couple of weeks but slipped away after school today instead of going back. Giran listens, and asks what he wants- he could fake records, get Izuku sent somewhere better, or set up with a new relative, or his own place. Izuku doesn't have any other relatives on his mom's side and never knew his dad, so Giran eventually gets an apartment in "Midoriya Hisashi's" name and has Izuku moved out from the home. The place is really just for him, because he wanted to stay at the same middle school (he's only 13, and he's never had to move schools before). Then, Giran starts poking around to confirm the relationship before offering anything more.

3- But Izuku is lonely, and grieving, and quite depressed. On his fourteenth birthday, Giran comes to visit- a first since getting him moved in, and while they've got each other phone numbers they don't talk much. Giran admits to being his father, which Izuku had almost hoped for before he answered the door. Giran never wanted kids, but he has to admit Izuku's almost not a kid anymore, and since Inko did all the hard parts he isn't going to disrespect her work and throw the teen away. So, he asks Izuku what he wants, and Izuku admits he wants to be a hero, even though he's quirkless, even though he couldn't do anything to save his mom. Giran nods, then says "Ok. I'm sending you to your Uncle Oguro's for the rest of summer break."

4- "My What" Izuku asks, but Giran tells him that he helped save the man's daughter once, so he owes him, and besides, seems like he wouldn't mind Izuku anyway with the company he keeps. "And, your uncle is also quirkless. Tell him you want to be a hero anyway. C'mon, go get packed up while I call him."

It seems to be a very loud conversation from the other end, but all Izuku can hear is his father's easy, calm voice the whole time, still talking like the whole thing is a joke all while being completely serious. Izuku begins to wonder how the hell his parents met.

5- "C'mon, ask." Giran says on the train. Izuku does, nervously, and Giran tells him he won't find out things if he doesn't look and ask, and he should, he's got a good curiosity and a sharp mind. "That'll help at Oguro's. Oh, and if there's an emergency, call me right away, kay?" He's not particularly concerned with Izuku figuring out about the quirkless man being a former hero with a quirk, or learning about AfO that way - Oguro will make it clear Izuku isn't to look for the man or listen to any offers.

#giran's a networker he Knows A Guy or he Finds A Guy #need support items? he knows a guy who makes them and he'll get them to you #need info? giran knows a guy and he'll ask him the for info and fact check it before sending it to you #surprise son who is extremely lonely and without purpose? giran knows a guy who might be able to fix that and owes him a favor anyway #pocket talks to people #anon #ask game
