Little Zuko and little Azula love Lu Ten. They love Lu Ten so much, they successfully smuggled themselves into Lu Ten's baggage when Lu Ten left to go fight.

Lu Ten, meanwhile, finds out that his little cousins snuck along for the ride way too late.

He knows they're gonna lose the fight.

He isn't about to let a couple of little kids die like that, murdered by Ba Sing Se soldiers too hyped up by war.

He may have been prepared to put his own life on the line, but he's not sacrificing Zuko or Azula's. But he also knows that if he flees the field with them, then Ozai will absolutely use that as an excuse to "punish" his own children.

Lu Ten does not want to know what that punishment entails. He is, in fact, more terrified by whatever it may be than the literal war raging outside his tent.

So.

So.

He swallows his pride for his country, his love for his father, and his dreams of being a successful general.

He grabs the kids, fakes his death, and runs.

#atla au #atla #lu ten #azula #zuko #zuko and azula raised by a stressed and trying lu ten #iroh still grieves #but during his journeys he realizes that lu ten probably isn't dead #but he steers clear of where he thinks lu ten went because he doesn't want to lead ozai to him #he has the order watch over them from afar #ozai still had his father killed #but his meeting was interrupted by ursa instead #so he challenged her to agni kai #and scarred her #and ursa is the one banished from the fire nation in search of the avatar #iroh went along with her #but she intends to help the avatar destroy the fire nation #since it is the one that took her son and daughter #story prompt

You are a ghost and an echo from a place you cannot go back to

#silver the hedgehog #shadow the hedgehog #sonic #sth #purp doot #i don't want him to ever feel like he belongs. i want him to keep time traveling in the search of his home #but his home was destroyed without his knowledge #so he idles forever and ever and meets people who haunt him back

Kirk saying this at the beginning of The Search for Spock doesn't mean a lot considering the fact that in TOS he puts his life in danger a considerable amount of times to save other people.

BUT !!! The fact that he ends up risking/losing three things that he considers more valuable than his own life -his son, his career and the Enterprise- and he still thinks it's worth it because Spock is back... INSANE! It's true love, baby!

#if he hadn't tried the cost would've been his soul #as in spock is his soul #i don't think he would've stolen and destroyed the enterprise for anyone else #i don't know what else to say... they were in love #spirk #tos spirk #james t kirk #spock #star trek tos #star trek iii #star trek iii: the search for spock

It is WILD to me that GMMTV is fielding OffGun AND TayNew in the same quarter

That Last Twilight is airing AS WELL

That they optioned 3 JBLs

That The Sign is up there licking kicking ass and taking names (and Saint is behind it!)

That there's a high heat omegaverse BL staring Pavel

That there are 20 BLs airing right now and none of them Korean.

With 5 VAMPIRE BLs announced for next year

Thailand legit looked at 2023 and thought "yeah but we could make it worse better weirder"

#HOW DID WE GET HERE? #this is definitely the most surreal timeline #we live in interesting times #while tumblr is still talking about playboyy as if it even ranks or should be part of the conversation #also tumblr has entirely destroyed the gif searching system so that I'm probably never sharing another gif again #but that's a different 2023 story #thai bl #vampire bl #all the bl #offgun #taynew #pit babe the series #pit babe #pavel phoom #last twilight #cooking crush #cherry magic

Phantom, the sentient Helmet

Danny wasn't running away. He no longer had a reason to run, or to really care about his injuries (he wondered if his experience at Amity had left him numb to physical injuries, but when your father shoots you 5 times a week you start to get used to it).

The truth was that Danny was a little envious of his clone. Ellie had no responsibilities and she could travel wherever she wanted; Because of his obsession, or his mentality, Danny could never be free, he always had to stick with someone to protect. He needed to protect. It just couldn't be Amity the one he protected anymore.

Then he left his hometown. He hugged his friends and said goodbye before looking for a new "purpose", preferably one that didn't hate him. And he arrived in Gotham, with an aggressive spirit that screamed that he wanted to be protected as much as he was protecting.

It was obvious that "Red Hood" didn't know the ghostly ways, so Danny debated how to help him until he noticed his helmet, and the halfa did the only thing he could think of: he possessed it.

When Jason woke up, his helmet had developed an A.I. that he was sure it didn't have before. When he tried to restart it, the A.I. moved to his motorcycle, and well, it wasn't hard to find out that it wasn't an A.I. at all, but "Phantom" refused to leave. Jason sighed and left it like that.

At the end, Phantom turned out to be very helpful, always with reliable information, and sometimes, he didn't even behave like the A.I he was supposed to be, sometimes he was just a very tired guy, spouting vaguely worrying comments. And giving life advice to Jason, ignoring everything he was doing, like killing people (bad ones), Phantom didn't really care. Once, Phantom said that he was right, that what he was doing was right.

The first time he found out what Phantom really was was because some people cornered him, and were about to shoot him before something jumped out of his helmet. Something gigantic and vaguely threatening, but Jason felt safe. When the shadows disappeared and all that was left was a boy of his own age, clearly tired, Jason wondered if it was too late to ask him to stay out of the helmet.

#dpxdc #Danny give up on Amity #he loves his city #but he can't do it anymore #he destroyed the portal #and left #Danny wanted to be free but his obsession is protection #Danny needs to protect #just not Amity #so he searched until he found Jason #Jason seemed lost and Danny wanted to help #he overshadowed his helmet and pretended to be an A.I #Jason clearly noticed #dp x dc #dc x dp #Jason let him stay #when he finally met Danny out of the Helmet he wondered if he was his friend #Jason want Danny to stay out of the Helmet #he seems tired

The parallel of Simon forgetting Betty as a result of going mad and Betty going mad as a result of not being able to forget Simon and yet both of their insanity manifests in an inherent obsession with the other will continue to make me lie awake at night

#simon as the ice king still desperately searches for his princess to the point of being obsessed with the one who resembles betty the most #he can't even remember that bonnie is his daughter's ex because she's smart and she's kind and she's logic-driven and that's so familiar to #betty as magic woman has her devotion to simon turned up to the point where she doesn't seem to care about anyone other than him #she'll destroy the world if it means that simon will be okay and safe and with her again #our clues that the relationship was always gonna be doomed were there right from the start weren't they #simon petrikov #betty grof #petrigrof #adventure time #fionna and cake #adventure time fionna and cake

Kate, 24

“I am wearing a top my friend Quinn made. My puffer is from Search & Destroy, I got it years ago from the $20 rack. My boots are Uniform. The black leather bag was my grandmother's; she gave it to me a few months ago. I feel stylistically inspired by Eastern Asian femme icons: Anya Phillips, Bai Ling, Yoko Ono, and many more. My friends and constant discovery of identity inspire my style daily. My style philosophy is the goal of just feeling good. Clothing is a second skin, a costume, a way to express. Getting dressed can be a ritual of self-care.”

Loki and Mobius going on a mission together but having to split for strategic reasons and Loki giving their daggers to Mobius who has nothing to defend himself (Loki's got his magic anyway and maybe Mobius has trained a bit with Loki who insisted he did it "just in case") and it's also a symbol that a little part of Loki stays with Mobius until they get reunited again.

...Then later Loki spots the bad guy they were here to catch and as they get closer they realise the bad guy is holding Loki's very dagger and that they are smeared with blood. Mobius is nowhere to be found.

#in my head this potentially has a happy ending with Loki destroying the bad guy in a fit of rage and fear before picking up the daggers #and starting to search for Mobius who they finally find wounded (he wouldn't have left the other guy take the daggers otherwise) but alive! #lokius #angst #on daggers

Inktober 2023 Day 11: Wander. I was really worried about how this one would turn out before I pulled out red pen. But I just really want a good fic of Hua Cheng searching for Xie Lian over the years. Talking to buskers, He Xuan, Yin Yu, maybe coming across the coffin he'd been sealed in, talking to the two General Hua sympathizers... just imagine 800 years of searching...

#inktober 2023 #pen sketches #hualian #hua cheng #xie lian #tgcf spoilers #tgcf fanart #one of those widely known spoilers i feel like #but regardless its better to tag #i thought about drawing hua cheng destroying the 33 gods #but i wanted this to be specifically searching for xl #i just wanted to draw the near misses #through all of xl's wanderings

Yo what if post cannon Shen Qingqiu gets hit by some sort of mind control that orders him to kill the one he loves most.

And it Bingge. Obviously it’s Luo Binghe. And everyone is frantically looking for the cure or interrogating the perpetrator but no one worried that he’ll be able to actually harm his husband the heavenly demon.

But no one knows that SQQ has more knowledge of heavenly demons than perhaps even his husband, due to having read PIDW from another Luo Binghe’s perspective, lunch tea with his Author-Shidi, and an embarrassing two days spent interrogating his father in law so he can avoid anything that can actually hurt his husband.

No one knows that the protagonist halo is gone with the completion of the story.

Luo Binghe is forced to watch his beloved kill him. When given the choice to harm SQQ in defense or allow himself to die there is no choice. He dies slowly and in pain as his husband watches coldly.

SQQ’s scream is one that will echo in the minds of his sect mates for the rest of their lives

#svsss #shen qingqiu #luo binghe #if I were to continue this I’m not sure if I’d have sqq half deranged #searching frantically for a way to bring his husband back #(binghe can’t die that’s not how the story goes where’s his happy ending system this isn’t real) #and essentially becoming a mirror of binghe in the five year timeskip #having binghe stay dead #sqq eventually destroys himself #and they meet in their next lives as wwx (sqq) and lwj (LBH) #and WWX remember after nearly dying in the burial mounds #and isn’t sure if LWJ remembers or not but surely he must HATE him either way #LWJ doesn’t remember until after WWX’s death #so it goes like mdzs cannon until after the 13 years timeskip #where everyone is shocked at the stoic LWJ running up to (not) Mo Xuanyu and sobbing apologies #all the rest of the PL are still on their mountains cuz they can’t ascend without all of them #it is heavily implied that they are on baoshan sanren’s mountain til they can find SQQ’s soul #mdzs

ok so

there's a million things to talk about in Blitzo's calendar

like the fact that he's still taking riding lessons ?? (i mean good for him!), his use of emojis, his drawing style (that isn't even just one style but, i suspect, just him trying his best at any point and that's it, we all should aspire to that tbh), him trying (failing?) to have specific "fuck days", who wrote (and/or who crossed out ?) "I ❤ Moxxie" on the right because that seems sus in every way, that tree (??), and of course, his dedication to having The Talk with Loona (by which i mean he procrastinated it for more than a week which is insanely relatable)

[i'd also talk about his full moon drawing but i'm already planning another post that will touch upon that so i'm leaving it out here]

but there is one thing in particular i am very curious about

and that is that "horse" (i assume it's supposed to be one bc 90% of all that he draws are dicks or horses (add guns and you'd have Blitzo in a nutshell but i digress)) in the bottom left corner

like....... is that supposed to be Stolas????

i mean. long neck? check. top hat? check. creepy mouth beak mouth? check. stars above him?? check.

like. like. fellas is it gay romantic hopeless casually transactional to draw your transactional fuckbuddy as something that's (to you) sacred / godly / perfect in every way??? like hello -

#sorry this post has definitely been made i know i'm super late to this fandom but FUCK IT. that drawing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i'm????? #stolitz #helluva boss #i'm so ready to let this show destroy me in the best way #Stolas' love for Blitzo is utterly obvious and only becoming more so and i love it to heaven and back but #searching for all the LITTLE CLUES how Blitzo feels (no matter how much he denies it - to himself most of all)??? #aaaaaaaaAAAHH I CANNOT STOP!!!

Crystal Warnings

Threats to Earth are not news to the Justice League. Neither is the fact that a threat is "too powerful" for them, what is new is that the U.S. government wants to provide them with help, since when have they ever wanted that?

It is a novelty that does not sit very well with Bruce, because he feels that there is something wrong with the situation. They had faced thousands of dangers but it is only now that they are offering something? Definitely suspicious.

However Clark's curiosity was only outweighed by Barry's desperation to find a solution so he agreed to listen to what the "GIW" had to say.

Apparently their current threat was very much connected to them, which Bruce was not surprised by, what did surprise him was that the threat was less of a threat and more of a warning of sorts. As usual, people had played with things they shouldn't, causing catastrophic results.

The organization that contacted them had some sort of crystal, they flatly refused to say where it came from but explained that it was very important to beings from another dimension, and they were trying to contain the threat but found it impossible.

What Bruce got out of that conversation was that the organization had greatly disturbed a civilization full of unknown beings for the sheer joy of it. And that their current enemy was nothing more than a being desperate to retrieve whatever the crystal was.

Clark, of course, asked them for the crystal, to which they seemed very reluctant but in the end agreed. And Bruce set about contacting Diana, because he was sure they needed a diplomatic intervention rather than an actual battle.

It became clear that the crystal was extremely important when the giant eldritch menace transformed into a desperate teenage girl the moment the crystal appeared in her field of vision. That was even more evident when hundreds of portals began to form around the place, different creatures scowled at the humans.

Bruce vowed never to place his trust in organizations outside the League and its allies again. He swore doubly so when the crystal stopped being a crystal and transformed into a groggy, sleepy teenager mid-conversation.

There really was a hell of paperwork ahead. But at least the world was saved from human stupidity, again.
