#looks like literal torture

[mikakuna]

i see this jason todd who actually looks his very young age (instead of the 30yr old man that comics like to portray)

and feel my heart breaking just imagining bruce beating him up, almost killing him, mind-breaking him, and just overall being a total piece of shit father towards him.

a huge chunk of the reason why people don't view bruce's actions towards jason as abusive or wrong is because jason doesn't look his age. he's drawn to be this 35yr old father of three who looks even older than dick (and way too on par with bruce) that people see their fights as one between batman and any of his regular rogues. when they fight, it just looks like batman is fighting a man his age and not an actual young person. it doesn't look like batman is fighting his son who's barely even drinking age (and who def wasn't drinking age in utrh). their fights are portrayed in a way that eliminates the very real power struggle between them.

this applies to jason's entire character as well. a lot of people don't sympathize with how he died or his actions as robin or his fights with the other bats because he doesn't look his age. he always looks older and scarier than everyone else. tim has many sympathizers from the titans tower incident because jason just looked like a grown man fighting a 12yr old (even tho i disagree, tim was built and like 17 lmfao).

anyways, i just wish comics would actually draw jason to look his age, which literally ranges from 19 to early twenties. he's young- so young, and it's so annoying to see him drawn and written as someone older than even bruce.

#the way everyone in jason's robin run saw him as this adult despite him being 12-15 #like what the fuck #just because a child has experienced more than the average adult doesn't make him any less of a child #it's like the typical groomer thought process #if jason was shown younger in arkham knigjt for example there'd be less people calling him whiny #they showed 15yr old jason's torture scenes like he was a 25 yr old #he should've been shown as the small child he was #it would've put more perspective into how cruel and fucked it was of the rogues to torture a literal child #and then bruce almost killing him in rhato... #now imagine if jason looked his age there #honestly this all just feeds into the idea that jason feels too small for his big body #imagine being this tiny kid growing up and then dying and coming back to life as this tank #arghhhhh!!!!! #jason todd #red hood #batman #jason peter todd #bruce wayne #jason todd deserves better

i need ghoap frantically making out against a door finally taking the leap on their feelings. need ghost grinding against soap, expecting to find him just as hard as him, only to feel nothing

and in all his wisdom and experience, he concludes soap was tortured and never told him

he’s trying to think of a delicate way to say he understands, that he’s been through it and it doesn’t change anything about how he feels (and who the fuck touched him so he can hunt them down and rend them limb from limb)

meanwhile trans!soap’s just trying to find the best angle to grind his cunt on ghost’s thigh

just it never even entering ghost’s head bc he’s never known a trans person but he has met plenty of people who’ve been tortured - himself included - so of course that’s his logical leap

soap takes off his shirt and he sees his top surgery scars and ghost asks if he wants him to kill the one who did it and soap just hums like, “actually, man did pretty good, they healed real well,” and ghost’s just teary-eyes with awe at how well he’s coping, “looking on the bright side, that’s my johnny.”

imagine he thinks johnny was fully castrated but sees he’s determined to still have a sex life with him so he buys packers and straps to help him bc hell yeah healing and soap’s just like, “holy shit i’ve never had such a thoughtful partner before, such a sweet man, lt.”

#he a little confused but he got the spirit #its so good bc it can be super angsty of ghost really dreading whats been done to his sergeant and trying to make it right #or just go full crack treated seriously and have fun with it #i love just completely oblivious ghost #in any military context hes the smartest guy in the room #he always knows the play and has more experience than anyone #but stick him in the normal world? man is Lost #ghost just thinks hes had some kind of reconstruction surgery after being tortured and accepts thats what johnny looks like #bc hes never seen a pussy before #it takes years for soap to actually come out to him bc he just never thought to #hes seen him naked theyve literally slept together what else is there for him to say #then he shows him like a family album or something and ghosts just like ‘why arent you in any of these i only see girls’ #and he just goes ‘hang on a second’ #soap gets one of his sporadic periods one night and panics a little thinking it would weird ghost out or remind him that hes not cis #but ghost just thinks its a normal part of such a thorough reconstruction that hed bleed sometimes #and doesnt question it when soap grabs a pad out of his drawer bc ‘thats such a good way of handling the discharge my johnnys so smart’ #just really supportive ghost for the wrong reasons #coming out of my cage and ive been doing just fine.txt #we’re a team. ghost team #soapghost #ghostsoap #simon ghost riley #ghost cod #john soap mactavish #soap cod

sorry i’m a megumi apologist because i, too, would lay on the floor crying and throwing up if i was just forced to watch my own hands tear apart my sister and the man who raised me

#me when jjk wasn’t just a silly shonen and it was actually psychological torture #i said megumi apologist as if he’s a war criminal #he’s not he’s just a boy i fear #the jokes about him throwing after everyone just died to save him are funny though IM SORRY TJEYRE FUNNY #sorry this whole arc has been insane everytime they showed megumi laying on the floor crying i had to close my phone #IM NOT WATCHING THIS LOOK #like oh you’ve become what you’ve hated but like…very literally and also against your will #megumi fushiguro #itafushi #everything about jjk is infused with itafushi essential oils #that is. insane. Excuse me #megumi #jjk #jujutsu kaisen #jjk 251

I don't think this means anything, but along with the album cover colours getting darker with each successive variant that others have pointed out, one thing that jumped out at me is how the cover photos are more revealing of her with each one as well.

The first one her face is hidden 1989-style, the second one her face is partially obstructed by her arm and hair, the third one she's facing the camera in side profile (also notably no longer in bed).

It's probably just because all the photos are going to be brilliant because Beth Garrabant is incredible and they're just pretty to look at and they wanted to give contrast to each one, but it does kinda feel like she's stepping out of the metaphorical dark with each version.

Like, she's gone from being curled in bed to contemplating getting up to stepping outside but still covered in (his*?) shirt to...

idk I love cover art can you tell (and I love how Taylor tells stories with hers)

#*i don't think it's literally joe's shirt lmao #but it does look like an oversized man's shirt at first glance #so you know the metaphorical Him etc #the tortured poets department #photography #this might be the first album i buy more than one variant of but I'm trying to hold myself back lol #but as an amateur photograher... I am so transfixed by the artwork for this album #taylor swift

"You're a kid whos mom was obsessed with a cult, and when you were just 12, she sacrificed you. You end in hell and expected to be tortured for eternity, but turns out the demon wanted a child of his own"

by WRITING PROMPTs

Maybe Bruce?

Aweee now, just imagine!

These cultists? Totally an accident that they for the ritual right. Jason doesn’t die so much as he just seem to kind of vanish into smoke and—

wtf.

Ok.

There’s- there’s a whole child.

Right at Bruce feet. All of a sudden.

A human child.

In hell.

And look, they couldn’t have chosen a worse demon to send a sacrifice to because Bruce? He’s a protector of children.

Because there’s something that so many story and demonology books get wrong.

Hell is for the bad people to be punished for all eternity.

And Bruce? And all the other demons populating hell? Well, they exist solely for one reason:

To punish sinners for the crimes they committed in life.

It’s a jail. Bruce and his fellow demons are the jailers. They don’t guard the doors of hell because they don’t want anybody to get in, they’re guarding them so nobody gets out.

But children, children have no business being in this place of torture and agony. Not ever. There’s a whole ass system in place to keep the good souls from accidentally wandering where they shouldn’t be.

So Bruce sees this tiny, starved child crying and screaming and— fuck. This is a Dick situation, isn’t it? He needs to go to earth. Again. And drag some people down to damnation all early and piss off death again. But you know what? Tough shit. They want a demon? They’re gonna get one.

(Jason is soon introduced to another strange human after he mysteriously pops back up on earth. His name is Richard “Dick” Grayson, and his teeth are too sharp and his pupils look almost reptilian in the right light, but he takes Jason to a big ass house with a real strange butler and lots of food.

Jason thinks he’s seen the weird Brucie guy who introduces himself as Dick’s dad somewhere before… but Jason is cool with not looking a gift horse in the mouth. After all, what are the chances he’ll fall into another cult’s hands so soon after the last?)

#this went in a totally different direction than intended #but we need some demon lore diversity and I’m always here for more #Bruce has a part time gig on earth to make life better for kids and the innocents #he’s got a lot of minions #Bruce is a king of hell #one of— seven maybe #anyway the cultists also mysteriously vanished #Bruce didn’t intend to actually adopt jason #but he’s weak to the kid’s spitfire nature #like that could literally be his offspring #dick’s a half demon #he takes one look at jason and goes ‘ew #at first #and then within ten minutes he’s like ‘b can you point me to the cultists I wanna brush up on my torture skills pls’ #bruce with tears in his eyes: my babies #jason todd #batfamily #dick grayson #batfam #bruce wayne #robin #prompts #brainstorming #ghost talks

the only thing that could have improved SVSSS is if shen jiu was in the background providing scathing hateful commentary the entire time. i want to see him and shen yuan eat each other alive <3

#svsss #shen yuan #shen jiu #shang qinghua #og shang qinghua #pippart #im so interested in the tragedy of sj's whole thing #like there's the obvious bit #with a guy who gets replaced by someone else and its obvious that the new guy isn't the old guy #but no one really cares to look past their initial misgivings about the situation and just accept it #both bc of false rumors about the old guy but also bc he's just. really too wounded to connect with other people in any meaningful capacity #but im also just soooo interested with what shen yuan does with shen jiu's life #because its literally objectively better #he doesn't get tortured to death #he has friends. his disciples love him. his martial siblings rely on him. his reputation is improved on all accounts. he finds love. #he's more sociable and he trusts other people more and other people trust him in turn #but in order to get this result you have to completely divorce the old goods from the new #its a similar reason as to why im so interested in kris's whole thing in deltarune #is this something sj could have gotten on his own if someone had reached out to him first? #was sj ever in a place where he could have accepted a hand reached out towards him? #or was he always doomed to be his own downfall? #anyways. i am very normal about the media i consume. #obsessed with the stranger vibes of svsss SO much #hello fellow tma enjoyers that podcast permanently changed how i evaluate characters #hello tumblr exclusives you get the benefit of seeing my deranged thoughts in the tags #bc im too shy to just tweet this out

TUVOKTOBER Day 2: Lunch Break [Interrupted]

#tuvoktober #bea art tag #1000% directly inspired by that post about how Tuvok should eat tupperwear salad like a teacher #It's so true!! He literally WAS a teacher !!! #he's listening to monks chanting - his favorite music bc he's a gd freak #It's SO his favorite that Neelix knows about it. I really wanna know how he knows. #Probably 'he just asked him' but funnier: They went on an away mission and he had monk chanting playing the whole time #Neelix: (internal) This is fucking hell on earth (positive spin) At least I know his favorite music! #Everyone whose been in an older relative's car as they blast choir music (the car is always SO hot) understands #it's torture but also it's kind of comforting??? it always makes me want to got to sleep #Tuvok seems like he eats salad without dressing (maybe a light drizzle of like lemon or vinegar on top) and looks down on people #who do otherwise <3 annooooying <3 #Janeway: (early in their knowing each other) Can I join you~? I'm also having a salad! #<- did this specifically to try & bond with him #Tuvok: -gazes pointedly at how much dressing she put on it- I could hardly tell.

[waterdeepthroat]

I am actually having so many thoughts about bg3 characters when it comes to body image bc themes of bodily autonomy are just so present in this game

#like. astarion and halsin are the obvious ones for this bc astarion doesn’t even know what he looks like and halsin is halsin #but the others?? karlach literally having her body taken apart and put back together by zariel?? wyll forcibly being changed by mizora?? #the very common headcanon that gale’s abs are an illusion?? shadowheart’s overall trans vibes? lae’zel whose body has been seen as a weapon #jaheira and her whole anti-ageing scroll can be taken in a different direction too. hell even minthara’s torture by orin #the emperor and what it means to have been a man and now something Else? i could even see it with the selûnites bc of their circumstances #there’s just SO SO MUCH to explore here and I’m gonna do it as soon as my computer finishes its download #bg3 #ALSO. raphael. bc haarlep is an idealised version of himself lbr. and my last tav (denandras) definitely has some complex feelings about it

[donnatroyyyy]

Can I be honest with everyone a second? I honestly think that every instance used to justify calling Dick Grayson the “angry robin” is him being justifiably mad at something that would make anyone who was put in the situation mad.

#like people really be like “oh look nightwing got angry and killed the guy that murdered his brother. paralyzed his ex. and made him think #that he murdered and tortured his other brother. also the guy who’s been torturing and playing with him and his father figure for over a #decade and has killed countless people. but nightwing killed him out of anger he must have anger issues.’’ #like wtf?? #you read all of that and instead of reading someone finally killing someone who’s put him and his family and the WHOLE WORLD through such #misery and abuse and grief for literal laughs #you read someone with anger isssues killing a bad guy cuz he got mad #also while we’re on the topic of this whole thing #Bruce revived joker FOR Dick. Bruce probably wanted to let that motherfucker die more than anything but he didn’t want joker’s death on #Nightwing’s conscious. he saved the person he wanted dead most for his son. #dc comics #comics #batfam #robin #batman #nightwing #dick grayson

[pocketgalaxies]

oh also still still STILL thinking about "people hate me because of you. and i'm a victim." just bc it's so simple and heartbreaking and unfair

#like. what do you do when you go back to your own torture chamber and you're attacked for being the torturer. #how do you DEAL with that. without losing your mind #obviously i'm extrapolating i doubt that was her Literal Torture Chamber but you get what i mean #and ofc w gwen. when this hatred that doesn't even belong to you is so strong and present within your own chest #that this girl can't even look at you anymore #text #nova shh #critical role #cr3 #laudna cr #angst tag #delilah briarwood #hi natalie reading this! i'm trying to put some stuff in the delilah tag but it's 11pm this is all i got rn

People who think Palestinians wanting equal rights to live on their own land equates to wanting to genocide Jewish people are actually telling on themselves

#‘millions of Jewish people will be killed’ your Jewish majority state is going to have deaths if constantly engaging in warfare and genocide #if it wasn’t happening because of that then maybe it’s because your Jewish majority state professionally harasses civilians #instead of any form of oppositional military force while invading their land #the arrogance #‘millions of Jewish people would be displaced’ have you not heard of negotiating #have you not seen millions of Palestinians been displaced from their literal homes #this is not to mention the amount of refugees in the surrounding countries due to wars already #if you think a lack of Jewish supremacy in the area is tantamount to ‘killing millions of Jews’ idk what to tell you #Palestinians want to not die and Zionists are out here saying that means they want to kill everyone #and then they will accuse you of not knowing what Zionism is or what genocide is or what apartheid is or what oppression looks like #they will accuse you of not knowing what the word indigenous means #clownery #Palestine #if you pretend being in support of Palestine is about hating Jewish people instead of trying to resolve ongoing genocide by a colonial state #then you’ve lost legitimacy #there is enough antisemitism out there that you don’t have to conflate a struggle against oppression with it to prove it exists #the same way you don’t need to prove who is endorsing to commit genocide when people deny that is what’s happening #the same way you don’t need to prove which side wants peace in the region and which side continues torturing children even without a war

if supernatural was any good, they would have had mary and lucifer sleep together in the apocalypse world. this would have solved zero problems with the show, but it would have created a hundred more interesting ones than they already had.

#they could have done this. for me. #it should have gone really well too. for mary and lucifer i mean. #because that would be 1000x worse for everyone else involved. if mary enjoyed herself and bonded with him. #doesn’t even have to be much of a bond but like. just enough that when sam and dean are there. it’s so incredibly uncomfortable. #sam like :) this is the second time my mother has slept with someone complicit in torturing me. i feel normal about this and its not #messing me up so bad im going to scream. this is fine. #dean would freak the fuck out about it though. openly and loudly. it’s *lucifer*. #which. of course. trying to tell mary that she’s not allowed to do what she’s already decided she’s doing because dean doesn’t want her to. #yeah. im sure that’ll go well. #lucifer doesn’t even have to do anything to drive a wedge between them besides sit there look pretty and eat mary out until she screams. #easiest job in the world #and most importantly: it would have been hot. literally just let someone walk in on mary pinning the devil himself to the floor. #why not give me this one thing huh

Another Grant headcanon:

I think he wrote love notes when in relationships, and he went all out with like making the paper scented and stuff. But like he had no good perfume so he ended up using his horrible body spray. So like the lucky boyfriend would like find a paper reeking of the body spray like every once in a while.

Also I think he was someone who fell deep into romance because having a crush and feeling butterflies in his stomach was better than numbness. So he would pursue every crush even if he knew it would not end well because of the thrill of it. I think this sucked but I think he atleast felt like this is a normal way for life to suck.

#honestly I was thinking he continued the note thing with marco in college maybe? #and now marco likes the smell of the body spray even if grant found better perfumes cuz nostalgia #i think i am in my own la dee da world after this episode #where I think if willy takes a break from torturing the parents they should form a circle and become bffs #they should form a circle #toast to rebecca #and then just talk shit idk #i think they would be very funny as a group after they are done grieving #like cassandra would be like how could I have dated such a loser #he literally kidnapped like four of my exs ex friends and put collars on them when we were dating #and they would be like no its not your fault he is that manipulative #and then one of them would talk about their ex to comfort her #and then somwhow it would come out that willy is like the age of their grandparents #and cassandra would be like why did this senior citizen get me so bad #he told me to make him a sandwich and I #a multimillionaire made him a sndwich #this will probably never happen in canon #dndads #grant wilson #dungeons and daddies #the tags are their own seperate post at this point #dndads s2 #looking back on this(tags) #all the spouses knew willy as a nice guy who saved them #rebecca was the only one who suspected him so thats why he killed her #they must be feeling so duped getting tortured except for marco who saw him kill a man #cassandra has been feeling duped since heaven #this is killing me all of them are having conversations in my head now the comedy and the pain is killing me mostly the comedy #marco li wilson #grant li wilson
