Jason opens his mouth to retort when his phone starts ringing.

And not any kind of ringing, no. It’s the fucking Spooky-Scary-Skeletons song.

This is a goddamn nightmare. He should have stayed in bed.

He has exactly two options.

One, not pick up.

Which would be a good option, the best option, if it were anybody else. Because Jason knows the fucker isn’t above trying to ring up the manor itself if he feels slighted.

Two, pick up. And suffer the most awkward birthday congratulations since… well, last year.

Jason glares at each and every curious Bat watching him from the sofa as he excuses himself and heads into the hall, pressing the green button with a long suffering sigh.

“What?”

“It has come to my attention that you have not yet contacted my daughter for your name day well wishes.“

Jason thunks his head against the wall.

“I’m busy.”

“I am aware,” Ra’s says smoothly, and Jason just knows the bastard is stirring his sinfully expensive blend of tea with some golden spoon, “And yet this has not stopped you before.”

“Is there a point to this call?”

“Yes. Do make sure to call my daughter soon. She is being quite insufferable.”

Righteous indignation rises inside Jason like hot coals.

“She isn’t—“

“She has disposed of three potential tutors since this morning,” Ra’s cuts him off, and Jason’s mouth snaps shut, “Yes, I do consider this to be insufferable. And your brother has brought it to my attention that the likely cause of her irritability is your lack of communication.”

“I’m busy.” Jason repeats, but it sounds petulant even to his own ears, “Look, I’ll call her as soon as I get out of here, ok?”

“Make sure that you do. Finding instructors is a difficult enough task without my daughter culling half their numbers before they even stepped across the threshold.”

“Maybe mom wouldn’t have to dispose of them if they were skilled enough to evade her.”

“Oh, some of them were,” Ra’s says drily, “But it proved to be for naught when she decided the your brother’s pets hadn’t had enough sustenance for the day.”

…so, maybe Jason should have called.

hold on i need to get a thought and emotions out. so with Welcome Home, there seems to be a before and an after. obviously, we're in the after. the website is the after. and if it turns out that the story we see, the one where shit hits the fan and the show is practically erased, then... that already happened. whatever horrors we see, we'll know that there is no saving them. there is no happy ending - it happened, and it's tragic. the show is doomed to end and be scrubbed away. if any of the characters are revealed to be dead/gone by the website, then when/if we see them at an earlier point, we'll Know

and there's a special kind of dread and horror in that for us, the audience.

#im not articulating this the way i want to... #it's like going to see a tragic play. like romeo and juliet for instance. #we go into it knowing the end. they die. no matter what they die. every step they take leads to That End #every happy moment is undercut by the knowledge that it won't last #thinking about this makes me think that at some point learning more about the story/characters is gonna feel like digging up a grave #AGH I LOVE IT THOUGH I LOVE IT. IT HURTS SO MUCH BUT I LOVE IT #its a special feeling of dread/nostalgia/bittersweetness/resignation #and that is sensation in the chest that doesnt feel good but it also does somehow? it hurts but just enough to not be unbearable? #welcome home #welcome home speculation #welcome home puppet show #man i am so so so so scared for the puppets lmfao #i have some theories on the ways shit might go down. like little things. souring relationships and such #i also have a feeling that the story is really gonna hit home (ha) for me in Big Ways #like as soon as i saw clown say that it's kinda about 'when does a home become a house' and stuff #OOF. YIKES. WHEN DOES IT INDEED. i mean i know. ive lived it. im Living it. #this is gonna get unintentionally personal Real Fast in Several Fun And Festive Ways for me huh #i wonder if the story is gonna be uncovered linearly or not... #chewing on it chewing on it chewing on it #i can't wait to Understand the world/characters so that i can write fanfic. i want to so badly. i want to Explore #i want to hop into that grave and keep digging

Don’t think I ever posted these, but I colored a couple of those doodles I did of Adam awhile back. I think they look better with color and shading tbh

Just as a reminder, I am not supporting Alex Kister! I am, however, separating the art from the artist; and I will continue to appreciate the characters and draw/write about them, as I believe they are still fascinating and good characters.

I will probably be posting a lot of my old art in bursts here for a bit—mostly TMC, but probably stuff of other fandoms and OCs too. Kinda wanna get it all out there now, before the fandom, uh… probably… kinda dies. Oof…

I think I’ll probably start putting warnings on anything TMC related I may post in the future, sort of how the TribeTwelve community seems to do in regards to their similar situation. Feel free to block TMC tags if you don’t want to see it at all.

I’m also gonna just start posting art of other stuff in general, once I kinda catch up on all the art I’ve done already. For now gonna just… get this all out there, and then probably try to take a break from TMC for a little bit. Focus my attention on more than just a single interest, haha.

#mandela catalogue #tmc #adam murray #art #my art #I have a couple of OC stories that I’ll prolly start posting more of :] #and there will be a lotta Jonah and Adam doodles. #cuz. I literally have almost an entire notebook full of nothing but doodles and AUs of them oof- #tw body horror #also my apologies for the absolute shit camera quality #you will see it again. I’m bad at taking pics of my traditional art and it’s what I draw most.

I keep seeing criticisms of poor modern interpretations of Shadow as "Vegeta Shadow" and it's confusing because.... which Vegeta are y'all talking about here? You've seen DBZ or Super, right??

Vegeta was overly aggressive and a downright villain up until the Cell saga and partially the Buu Saga. His character arc led to becoming a family man, a friend and fellow protector of Earth. Shadow's initial concept was always meant to be the Vegeta to Sonic's Goku, it's in his original concept art sketch notes. Take Vegeta's arc as a whole and it fits Shadow's pretty neatly from antagonistic enemy -> aggressive rival -> well-adjusted, even friendly equal.

When Shadow's antagonistic with Sonic and co, it's usually because he's on a mission and perceives them as in his way, like his battle against Knuckles in Rivals.

But most of the times after 06, in Rivals, Generations, Forces, TSR, the TSR animations or Sonic Channel's short stories, he's often dismissive, maybe even abrasive, but not an ego-driven jerk. Sonic does agitate and annoy him, just not enough to the point he'll attack for that reason alone. He'd usually just prefer running off if he's ticked off enough. Unless there's a need to start a fight, he won't and is pretty composed otherwise. In fact, Shadow's good-natured enough that when Sonic's challenging him to a fun race or suggests they work together, he's willing to take him up on it without much arguing.

Are people mixing up their criticisms of Boom Shadow with Game Shadow? Because criticizing HIM for being a quarter-inch deep Pre-Cell Vegeta makes more sense but he's barely related to Game Shadow. Boom Shadow doesn't even HAVE a tragic backstory in the context of that series. He's just a brooding weirdo who lives alone in dank caves and has zero reason on why he's like that.

Anyway, I think calling poor portrayals "Vegeta Shadow" is a misnomer and missing the root of the problem. If they are trying to make him like Vegeta, seems they're only going off very early-Vegeta. It's most likely short-sighted writers only referencing SA2 to ShTH Shadow believing that's his entire character arc, ignoring Battle, 06 or anything else after that. :/

#shadow the hedgehog #sonic the hedgehog #text #ramble #Zoomer Sonic #It's one of the strangest complaints I see for Shadow because it doesn't add up in the games #Game Shadow is pretty decent all things considered #The guy even went to Sonic's birthday and hung out with the gang after Forces so he's not against hanging out entirely lol #Shadow can be a tough character to write for because he's got unique nuances that separate him from Vegeta #But it's not that hard to watch his whole story-line throughout the games and see what he's about #Also I guess it seems IDW Shadow took notes more from Boom than the games so I guess that's also where this came up #oof #Boomer Sonic

Still can’t wrap my head around how Izzy shooting Ed was supposed to symbolize him “breaking up with Blackbeard” and have them go through that whole thing at the beginning of the season, to have Izzy be the one who tells Ed to follow what makes him happy, and have Izzy’s whole arc be about who he is without Blackbeard just for the finale to turn around and say that Izzy had to die because he was half of Blackbeard and that Ed couldn’t fully let go of Blackbeard otherwise.

#by all accounts it doesn't make sense #Izzy stopped caring about Blackbeard when he stopped following Ed’s orders and started going with the crew #when he told Ed he wouldn’t kill him #he had his figurative death when he tried to shoot himself and Blackbeard had his literal death when the crew killed him #when he’s fucking doing his whole speech saying that piracy isn’t about glory or fame it’s about the community it’s about the crew #the fact that they said that they just didn’t know what else to do with Izzy’s arc so dying was the best conclusion is INSANE to me #like im so hung up on this #blackbeard WAS us #YEAH WAS #dont get me started on how izzy used his fk dying breath to take the blame for everything just protecting others til the very end uh #izzy hands #him telling ed that the crew loves him and then he just....leaves #bitch the crew LOVED YOU #the whole “blackbeard was us i needed him” does gut me a little bit tho ngl like oof can yall stop being tragic for 2secs 😔 #anywayyyyy sorry if im being rly negative i dont want to be truly im just upset #it’s like I understand what they were going for but when you put it next to everything that’s happened it’s like ….idk #“izzy keeps the story of Blackbeard alive by being alive!!” and ed doesnt ??? #hes literally the face of Blackbeard #so he gets to change and grow and become something else and live as that but izzy cant? #you cannot kill a whole by just getting rid of half #izzy was moving past Blackbeard i just what the fuck is UP #“its cause ed is the mc and izzy is just the side character there to be a device for his growth” #ok well then dont have that characters whole motivation be about actualizing himself as his own person for a whole season #ofmd critical #ofmd

Just finished my first playthrough of BG3. Romanced Lae'zel, but ending up turning into an Illithid because the idea of making Orpheus or Karlach do it didn't sit well with me (or my character).

I told Lae'zel to leave with Orpheus in the end (I heard she wouldn't stay with a ghaik anyway, which she's valid for, but also, it doesn't feel right to ask her to stay when I know how much her people mean to her). And like-

Her face before she flies off---

She looks so heartbroken and sad.

#emmodii rambles #baldur's gate 3 #baldur's gate series #lae'zel #spoilers #i don't regret my choices and i do love a good angsty story. but at the same time... OOF. #may you find a new source of joy in the astral realm my queen :'( #for anyone curious- i played a githyanki which i heard is the only race that can fly off with her or something? #but well. again- didn't quite fit my character to have someone else turn instead pfffft #ALSO HE'S A CLERIC OF ILMATER AND A REDEEMED DARK URGE. self-sacrifice is kiNDA TO BE EXPECTED HAHAHA. #anyway- do give romancing lae'zel a shot guys. she may be a hardass at first but it's really because she cares a lot #also slightly off-topic but as a dark urge gith... durge grew up in a city so like. wonder how out of place they woulda felt with the #other githyankis anyway. i think i read somewhere that a gith durge realises they don't really feel connected to creches and stuff #which is interesting and makes me curious about how exactly they were made. cuz they have the traits and knowledge of the race but didn't #grow up with them. i guess the easiest answer would be 'god magic shenanigans' but STILL. #trust me to overthink things hahaha XD #if anyone's curious what happened to my guy in the end--- we followed wyll and karlach to avernus hahaha #what are the devils gonna do? steal the soul we don't have?? TRY IT BITCH #of course i did reload multiple times to have my character kill himself. because that was another option that felt possible for his charact #...and also because i wanted to see how companions would react to it. krewfjewlkrjewklrjewl- although the narration for durge suicide #is also quite interesting! of course maybe that's just me being mentally ill eff (/lh) but having a kill that isn't going to murder daddy? #gives a redeemed durge some control and a final say at last. which is still sad but a nice way to tie up their death methinks #ANYWAY- time to go find a way to convert him into a full-on OC. elves and dwarves are one thing but giths are blatantly dnd so i'mma have #to figure that out for my own story lore and universe--- some kinda new species? humanify him? or convert to another existing general speci #hmm hmm hmmmmmmmmmm-

Maybe I'm just seeing more of this than usual since I'm in my biggest fandom in a long time but like. I feel like the kids today have very much forgotten that you're allowed to just...ship a thing. You're allowed to think the characters had interesting potential and just. Do the thing. You don't have to dissect eye movement and body language and where people are standing and stuff to prove it's canon- that stuff is chemistry, and it can be real and present without it being intentional. Doesn't make it any less real, but also doesn't make it some kind of conspiracy- there are movies from 70 years ago where actors had interesting chemistry that comes off homoerotic, but that certainly doesn't mean they were playing it that way on purpose. You don't have to wildly skew stuff actors say in interviews either, putting words in people's mouths is actually a little creepy.

I think we're at the point with queer representation and canon queer ships where we've had enough of it turn out to be real that we want it to always be real, and we feel like we have to prove it is real to feel valid in shipping it. I'm here to tell you that you don't have to do that.

I'm not saying those ships SHOULDN'T be canon, I'd love them to be. In some cases the story would be way better if they were. But you don't have to prove they were Canon All Along to be allowed to enjoy them. And if you hinge your enjoyment of a piece of media made by cishet people on the idea that the actors are going to confirm your ship was canon, or feel like you have to validate your ship by insisting it will become canon, I feel like you're just gonna end up disappointed.

#stranger things #steddie #byler #stranger things 4 #st4 #like. guys #when Joseph quinn was asked about steddie he made a joke and then was like idk man people can dream #I'm glad he's not a homophobe and is cool joking about it but that doesn't mean it's canon or that he's the captain of the steddie ship #WE are the captains and that is totally fine #and the byler kids i just. i worry about you guys #i fully support you guys but i also just honestly don't think you're gonna get what you want and are so convinced will happen #and i feel like this fandom is gonna get NASTY on both sides at that point #i just. oof #queer shipping #lgbtq+ #ok addendum I'm seeing this post being liked by mileven people who are being dicks to the byler people #and just so we're clear this is not for you either #the fact that your het ship is likely to be canon in a story written by straight people doesn't make it better and you are also being jerks #gonna put all you kids in time out like mama Steve

ofmd spoilers ahoy but

AHHHH

so glad they let Ed say that one line back at Stede, I literally had to pause it and roll around yelling

lol their awkwardness as they move so so so so torturously slowly back towards each other is so painfully familiar

oh my god the tension is so painfully well done that I am about to dive into their ao3 tag (and I've had about 0 interest in m/m fic for multiple years at this point) because I have, like, some equivalent to blue balls, fucking CHRIST

really enjoyed the mlm/wlw solidarity of Mary and Ed chatting and smoking weed

BAHAHAHA Anne and Mary's kinky relationship is so great, plus the degree to which they made fun of Ed and Stede

(as a 43-year-old woman thank you, THANK YOU, that they're not in their 20's)

unrelated to all the previous notes but I just want to be pleased that rather than the < .speaking Spanish. > bullshit they CAPTIONED THE GOD DAMNED SPANISH

if Ed and Stede don't bang soon I WILL PERSONALLY LOSE MY SHIT

#I don't even speak much Spanish that's not the point #our flag means death #ofmd spoilers #i've had some wine loolllll #(good lord my tolerance for weed has gotten higher but my tolerance for alcohol has nosedived #what can I say other than I definitely use one substance more than the other pfft) #anyway I met some lovely Spanish priests in Spain but considering the uhhhh time period and area of the world #oof #anyway true story st. james the greater was ALSO the patron saint of conquistadors #there was thankfully little of that on the camino #but it's weird to know that that priest would've ABSOLUTELY had some St James stuff on that ship 😬 #poor st. james he didn't ask for any of this
