JL: Nightwing! It’s a delight to see you! You should come by more often.
Nightwing: Thank you! I’m so sorry, work has been piling up on me but I’ll try to drop by the office party this Sunday.
JL: Ofcourse! Looking forward to seeing you there. By the way, is Batman coming late?
Nightwing: No, I’ll be filling in for him today.
JL: Did something happen?
Nightwing: Nothing much, he’s just grounded.
JL: ???
48 hours earlier
Dick: Bruce, I’m telling you now and we’ve had this conversation before but you need to build a better rapport with your children. They look up to you as a father figure and your actions influence their behavior.
Bruce: …hmrgh
Dick: And you might not be aware but you unconconscious behavior is damaging. Tim has picked up your terrible habit of constantly working in front of a screen-it’s going to strain his eyes. He’s always inside too, so you need to make him go outside more. I’m not always here, I have an entire city to run, the titans need me, I'm mentoring hundreds of heroes, the Justice League calls on me to help them, and I need to keep up with my social life. The people in Bludhaven where I teach and work also call me if I’m gone for a day-the point is-I can’t always be playing second parent here in Gotham.
Bruce: ……hmrgh
Dick: Damian always looks up to you
Bruce: *side eyes*
Dick: He does! See you don’t even realize it! He wants to make you proud and Jason gets mad when you don’t make time for him because he cares too. Stephanie doesn’t have a dad she can turn to and it would mean the world to her if you took her out to an amusement park or something. When was the last time you spent time with her.
Bruce: ….hmrgh
Dick: And-
1 hour later
Dick: -that’s why you need to stop working, go to them right now, and bond with them.
Bruce:
Dick:
Bruce: ……...hmrgh
Dick: I’m waiting.
Bruce: *dragging himself off the batcave chair and begrudgingly trudging upstairs under Dick’s watchful eye*
Bruce: *listening to the sounds of his kids in the living room and pumping himself up* Better relationships mean better teamwork. Better relationships mean better teamwork. Better relationships mean better teamwork. And Dick. Do it for him.
Bruce: *entering* *clearing his throat* Children. We will be going-
*The living room is in utter chaos. The cushions are strewn and ripped with stuffing coating the couches and floor which for some reason is stained yellow, the flower vase is shattered and so is the table it was sitting on, there’s string confetti on the chandelier, there’s spray paint and neon goo across the walls and in Tim’s hair, Jason has deep claw marks down his face as he wrestles with Damian who’s sporting massive bruise on his cheek and trying his hardest to bite him, Stephanie is dunking Tim’s face in a tub of soda which splashed everywhere while he’s ripping out Jason’s hair and also trying to kick Damian with his foot, the tv has massive spiderwebs and looping on tellatubies like a broken record machine, Titus is spitting out a feather while a random goose runs around honking while Alfred the cat chases after it at full speed, knocking down decades old paintings.*
Bruce:
Bruce:
Bruce:
Bruce: *rolling up his sleeves and stomping forward to join the fight* HMRGH.

“We don’t read and write poetry because it’s cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race and the human race is filled with passion. Medicine, law, business, engineering—these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life, but poetry, beauty, romance, love—these are what we stay alive for.” ― N.H. Kleinbaum, Dead Poets Society

Colonizers write about flowers. I tell you about children throwing rocks at Israeli tanks seconds before becoming daisies. I want to be like those poets who care about the moon. Palestinians don’t see the moon from jail cells and prisons. It’s so beautiful, the moon. They’re so beautiful, the flowers.
— Noor Hindi, from “Fuck Your Lecture on Craft, My People Are Dying,” DEAR GOD. DEAR BONES. DEAR YELLOW.

Try night revision if you had a really bad day
Tumblr media
I remember reading in a deleted @rosellesworkshop post that she used to affirm that regardless of everything she kept all her thoughts on check at the end of the day.
Sorry if I'm misremembering, but the post has been deleted, so i can't fact check it
I think that this is a wonderful idea, to use revision at the end of the day, specially if you had a bad day of focusing too much on the things happening in the 3d and you feel frustrated by it.
Tumblr media
“Night after night you should assume the feeling of being, having and witnessing that which you seek to be, possess, and see manifested. Never got to sleep feeling discouraged or dissatisfied. Never sleep in the consciousness of failure".— Neville Goddard
Neville always talks about the importance of going to bed with the wish fulfillment, not matter what happened during the day, not matter how much we "sinned" aka living in a state that we do not desire, to always go back to the state of wish fulfillment before going to sleep.
“Your subconscious, whose natural state is sleep, sees you as you believe yourself to be, and whether it be good, bad or indifferent, the subconscious will faithfully embody your beliefs.”— Neville Goddard
Tumblr media
"No matter what, today i kept all my thoughts on check"
Affirm that , but most importantly, you have to go to sleep knowing that not matter what you did during the day, you did everything right and nothing can ruin it.
Whatever you want it's already yours, just feel the feeling of already having it, already living it.
Forget what happened during the day, how does it feel to live you dream life? How do you feel now that you already have all the things you always wanted? Feel those feelings before going to sleep.

Y/n: I don't need to go to bed. I'm not tired, I'll be fine.
Arlecchino : But, darling, I'll be so lonely without you. Come curl up in my arms so I can feel whole again.
Y/n: O-oh. Well. Are you trying to seduce me into healthy sleeping patterns??
Arlecchino : Is it working?

All wishes, all aspirations, all hopes, all fears, all doubts, all determinations grow stronger and stronger precisely in proportion as they get themselves expressed in words, forms, colours, and action.

The bg3 origin characters are all attractive in their own way, but Gale specifically targets the part of my brain that is unrelentingly attracted to any reasonably competent university lecturer.
