When Steph and Cass get married they don’t take the last name Brown (Daddy Issues™️) or Cain (Daddy Issues Prime™️) or even Wayne (Steph absolutely REFUSES to become a Wayne nosirree), but a secret fourth thing (Gordan).

#BARBRA GORDON IS CASS’ MAMA AND TO AN EXTEND STEPH’S TOO OKAY #yes Steph still has Crystal but yall can NOT tell me she didnt lowkey look up to Babs as a secondary mom figure #the only one who is in on the jig is Kate bc shes officating the whole thing bc DUH and the way she fucken WHEEZZEEDDD when Steph explained #the way Kate would stand at the podium and anounce with such a smug grin #looking DIRECTLY at Bruce #‘I pronounce you…. MRS STEPHANIE AND MRS CASSANDRA GORDAN!’ #the sheer fucken UPROARRRR #Steph LAUNCHES herself into Cass’ arms and kisses her senselessly as her now wife effortlessly carries her in a bridal carry #babs takes a second to process before instantly losing her NIND bc oh these crazy kids did NOT no no shes not crying #(she is. she so is. her date Dinah is handing her a hankerchief) #the batbros minus dami are hollering and cheering bc YEAHHHH STICK TO THE MANNNN #dami himself is dismissive and muttering about how could anyone throw away the wayne name like this #(on the inside he actually thinks this is pretty funny and must admit Barbra’s last name is a worthy rival to the Wayne name) #Bruce. Bruce is stunned. shell shocked. this girldad just lost his fav kid his princess #Jim is just having a damn good time bro is clapping Bruce on the back and having a good laugh over it all #also does this mean he has two honorary grandkids? no? well suck it bruce theyre my grandkids now #the other gothmanites who were invited like the birds of pret or the gotham city sirens are also all clowning on Brucie Boy #dc #stephcass #cassandra cain #stephanie brown #batfam

actually i do have something to say about this chapter and it's quite critical of it but also i'm tired tonight and i've been talking about it long and hard on discord already and putting it all together in a coherent post feels like too much of a task tonight. all i'm gonna say is that part 2 was very obviously going in a certain direction from the start, and i loved that direction, and to an extent it is still going in that direction but now very obviously missing a huge chunk of what stirred it in that direction. and i'm hesitant to simply say it's fujimoto that's dropped the ball on this (though it might the idealization, who's to say) because from the actual shape of the writing + slump in paneling/art + recent bitter interview by fujimoto + japanese audience is apparently vocally not a fan of asa + my own cursed knowledge of shounen jump and shueisha editors and how they react to a fall in sales = i think the lack of focus on asa has really hurt the themes of part 2 when she was an integral part of it + i think this wasn't entirely fujimoto's doing and it's very likely because she is apparently strongly disliked in japan and there's good reason to believe that fujimoto was told to not focus on her nearly as much bc sales slump and people complain as soon as she shows up. which sucks. becaue what made part 2 work as well as it did was the synergy and parallel between the two protagonists' paths, and the absence of asa's path in the past few months (both in universe and by real time in the comic) feels like a genuine writing and thematic and emotional hole in the comic that to me shows that she WAS supposed to be there. fujimoto had fully intended to write her in there bc there's a hole in the shape of her where she is very obviously supposed to fit. it isn't simply a question of "author forgets his female character" it's a question of "this crucial part of the manga is missing and the author is painfully aware of it and bitter about it too"

#eli talks #csm #this is still not coherent i'll make a more coherent version at one point. #anyhow this still worked for me even during the denji megafocus #bc it felt like the boomerang was gonna return and asa was gonna be back in her place #and we were gonna see the counterbalance to denji's focus #her own rise to fame and emotions during this and growth with yoru #her absorption into the church and its horrors; the love bombing and adulation she finally got #the emotions about chainsaw man as a character and growing more reliant on yoru #the bitter and dramatic fall and its immediate aftermath; reacting to losing her arm #instead we get a character who until now had been an intensely emotion-driven and passive character IMMEDIATELY thrust into action #and given v little insight into her thoughts and interiority #something is missing! #it's not like fujimoto had nothing planned for her. she was written so intently and well #and suddenly it's like she dropped out of existence #and suddenly the paneling got worse and the art got worse and the hiatuses worse #and we get an interview from fjmt where he talks bitterly about commercial expectations interfering with artistic intentions #and how he wishes he didn't have to draw aymore #a guy who talked about how he was obsessed with drawing! #idk maybe it's idealization but i feel like it's not hard to put two and two together here

what is the best attack in bleach and why is it la muerte

#chad yasutora #king shit #iconic #if anyone tries to fight with me i will block you #nothing is cooler than punching someone so hard a skull appears in the wall behind them. nothing. #ngl i think the karakura kids busting up these hollows is my fave fight of the tybw anime #remember when little p didn't like chad when she first met him because she didn't like his cheekbones? #anyway she's been a chad stan for about 140 episodes now #but last night (the debut of la muerte) she rated him a '30 out of 10' #'10 for the right arm. 10 for the left arm. 10 for being CHAD' #she also insists he has never lost a fight ever and will shush you if you try to argue with her (i would never) #imagine being nine years old and having such correct anime opinions #she was not happy about nnoitra showing up at the end we are not talking about nnoitra #ichigo 🤝my daughter 🤝chad could never lose

Me, feeling that single Daredevil gif along with screenshots of Matt and Frank revive my energy again and feeling my mood lift like when i saw the Sexy Born Again Coat:

oh

is this what a sad tiger feels like when a frozen meat puzzle ball is put in the enclosure

enrichment

#i feel like this is like an aspca ad and it's a sad pasta #'for 1 new daredevil: born again related gif or pic a day #you can provide this pasta with the enrichment she needs' #cut to me face planted pathetically on my desk before an empty docs screen #'help. call kevin feige now. show pasta a gif.' #cut to someone lifting my head and pushing the bloody Matt gif into my face #'pasta writers are very special animals that need proper care. and with that care-' #cut to me frothing and chewing drywall and screaming matt's name. cut again to me frantically typing. #'-she can return to her natural state.' #arms of the angels plays. i write for 6 hours and lose consciousness. #my natural state is achieved

atm i'm sick over charlie hauling al into a hug after he's helped her figure out the answer to something monumental, and luci can see the easy implicit trusting way she leans into him

#and like. we know he could never lose her; charlie loves w all her heart and then some #but for one terrible second he WONDERS #bc he wasn't there. #and he loves charlie ofc‚ it goes without saying‚ but he /wasn't there/ #and now she's sinking into the arms of an overlord w a smile on her face like it's all she ever wanted #truth be told i'm also sick abt how in the process of isolating charlie from her family she becomes his soft spot #& he ends up personally offended over luci's absence on her behalf #yes folks i am STILL plagued by the-bridge-scene-from-arcane-but-charlastor #that poem by Ellen bass: and life will never be the same. even when you get her back. hell leaves it's mark. #LIKE. I WISH CHARLIE'S HEARTACHE W HER DAD HAD MORE ROOM TO BREATHE #i wish a LOT more shit had room to breathe #charlastor

[celestialulu]

i will remember the agonising 2 weeks after this shit dropped as a cliff-hanger like it was stressful

#LIKE THE ARTS AND STUFF OF HER LOSING HER GUILD MARK ARM OH IT WAS TWISTEDDDD #everyone thinking she was gonna die... like come on now #i dont know if im in the lesser majority of people who lowkey wanted this to have some sort of lasting effects #though i dont trust them to write it well so maybe its better if it didnt #plus i believe something like this would work more in the ignia arc bc we all know how thats gonna go for nalu development lets be real #fairy tail #fairy tail 100 years quest #lucy heartfilia

me: anne’s not gonna die, this is a disney channel show

the hardest thing:

#from the promos #i thought she was just gonna be severely injured or lose an arm #but i was wrong #i’m glad her memories are in a clone now #still losing my mind over the fact that she actually died #like the real Anne #i did not expect that #amphibia #the hardest thing #amphibia the hardest thing #the hardest thing amphibia #Anne #boonchuy #Anne boonchuy #amphibia spoilers #amphibia spoiler #spoiler #spoilers

rereading one of us is back has me angry about how disjointed the oouin trio is all over again. like you’re telling me that phoebe was found drugged and in a shed after an argument and maeve and knox had no reaction ??? phoebe is maeve’s best friend (and one of TWO friends she made on her own in remission). not to mention knox is in LOVE with phoebe. they know her better than anyone in the bayview crew and we got NATE’s pov of all people when the crew was searching for her?

#give me maeve freaking the FUCK out because yeah phoebe can’t lose anyone else but maeve sure as heck can’t either #and knox is trying hard to stay calm bc maeve phoebe and knox are a trio they’re a package deal and one member is missing and one is sobbin #in her boyfriends arms so ofc he’s left to be calm #but he can’t because it’s PHOEBE and he didn’t go after her and he should have and now she’s gone #and you’re telling me that they didn’t have a very somber cookie baking sesh in knox’s kitchen before going to visit phoebe? #and phoebes being SO kind about how they had an argument because it doesn’t matter she’s just happy to be okay but it DOES matter and #maeve and knox say as much because she’s their FRIEND and friends don’t hurt each other the way they hurt phoebe #so instead they just sit on the floor in phoebe’s room with a tupperware of truly shitty cookies between them bc maeve and knox cant bake #(that’s phoebes role in the trio) and they just sit closely so their knees touch and you know what? that’s okay for now #because they love each other — they’re each others HOME for heavens sake — and they’re just happy to be home #give me THAT karen #maeve rojas #knox myers #phoebe lawton #the oouin trio

important addition to my hc posting: seras constantly has the Autism Arms (like the trex ones) and integra's resting pose is standing complete straight and still in like,, a really uncanny way. she is posed like a roblox character and she cannot change this

#even after seras loses an arm she keeps doing it and it just looks like she's doing a gay limp wrist #and on to integra #like one time arthur made some passing comment about her needing to fix her posture #and now shes stuck like this #hellsing

"lol they should make Steph spoiler again she's basically not even a Batgirl" look I'm not too jazzed about the current state of Batgirl lore either rn but if I have to suffer through another decade of terrible babsgirl content PLEASE AT LEAST LET ME HAVE BATGIRL STEPH, IF ONLY IN NAME

#ramblings of a lunatic #dc comics #stephanie brown #ideally we'd have no babsgirls and Steph and Cass co-existing as two different types of batgirls both together and separate #since even beyond personality the types of heroes they were- how they fought what they fought their thinking their approach etc- #-was all very different from each other #and in calling back to their respective eras as Batgirl we'd get a steph who feels more like batgirl and less like n52 spoiler #but unfortunately dc hates me and insists on shoving babs into a role better occupied by steph and cass #leaving neither girl to really be able to flourish as batgirl #< this was inspired by me seeing ppl. not quite gloating. that's mean. but they were celebrating- #-about some steph concept art (NEW STUFF WITH STEPH WOO) being labeled ''batgirl/spoiler'' #like i don't think it's a reflection of story progression (bc it wouldn't be progression. it'd be regression. batgirl was forward for steph) #i think it's a reflection of the fact that editorial feels bullied and strong armed by fans into acknowledging steph (and cass) as batgirls #sips juice. anyway #i lowkey think it'd be cool to have steph and cass be batgirls in different cities. cass already had bludhaven let steph take a stab at it #if we're insistent on keeping babs in bludhaven then let her oracle for steph ala bg 2009 #it'd be neat! we could finally explore the tensions and parallels between dick and steph! #and you wouldn't have to remove steph from gotham either considering dicks there constantly too #you lose lich rally nothing and gain so much #but really I'm happy we get anything with steph considering she's only been getting cameos for nearly a year now #steph nation winning despite it all

#horizon forbidden west #hfw #zo #loved the foggy mountains in the background here :D #but she had the weird stripy light all over her arm! #i tried to reduce the effect without losing her skin texture #idk if it's just bc i'm taking a ton of pics but i swear i notice the weird light more now than earlier #i don't always notice it in-game #(i certainly don't remember noticing it here) #but sometimes it's super obvious #pls fix guerrilla #hfw npcs

What is it about PB that makes me have so many thoughts about her that are so hard to articulate... all the PB analysis I see is about her morality and stuff which is cool (except when people are WRONG. Hah.) but also I wanna see more analysis of her relationships and stuff. Like, to friends to family to her citizens to marcy (marcy is her own category). Because that's the part I like thinking about the most but I can't put those thinks into words so I want someone else to do it for me. It's bedtime-o-clock I might be a little incoherent

#the entire gum family storyline is WILD and im a little bit insane about it I think #kid PB tried to make herself a family and then they betrayed her and then she learned to control people (the candy citizens) and keep #everyone at arms length so she couldnt get hurt again. and those experience informed the way she interacted with other people for literally #hundreds of years!!!!! ahhh!!!!! #and then marcy comes along and bonnie falls in love but the responsiblities of her kingdom just keep piling up #and she pushes marcy away because the love/fulfilment from her kingdom is safe and dependable but loving marcy is scary. she might get hurt #honorable mention to shoko & finn too because I love shoko and post-S6 PB&Finn friendship so dearly #idk im kind of losing steam now. i should sleep #but if ur following me youve probably watched the show so. you know what im gettjng at. PB character development and all that. learning not #to control people so much #and getting better and letting people in #very sweet #i love PB #getting better at***

#this is really a show about coming of age in a vicious and unfamiliar world more than a show about werewolves #think about it. scott is sixteen and to him losing his first love is as incomprehensible and unfathomable as the supernatural. #and we're constantly reminded of how being sixteen and in love goes -- 'you're not in love you're sixteen and a child' etc. #these three characters make for such a good parallel to one another in how they werewolf + seeking guidance #especially + sudden change of worldview/stakes when confronted with sudden and unexpected loss and grieving #of course derek loses paige and becomes cold and jaded (see: literally becomes cold w/ blue eyes) #scott loses allison and commits harder to saving all of his friends even though one of them (or someone possessing him) killed her #liam is stopped from killing because of hayden's death #here are three werewolves who were sixteen and held their first love's dead body in their arms #and each of them took a different path. do you close yourself off? refuse to? do you change completely because of it? #and ofc it's teen wolf so everything always comes in threes #I have a lot of issues with the writing but the use of death (barring 6b) is not one of them. they really went hard on meaningful death. #also consider: lori holding brett's hand so he doesn't die alone and theo responding to tracy kissing him by killing her as she does #teen wolf writers went is anyone going to bastardize the original narrative to ponder new ideas about it and didn't wait for an answer #also women's deaths are always about love/for a man (thanks hollywood) but goddamn if they don't kill their women wisely #and the thing is they are all running. they're running from death and what does it get them? it gets them here. #derek wants to turn paige so she'll live forever. scott wants allison to live happily even with someone else. liam wants to save hayden. #none of them consider that cheating death will catch up to them until they run right into its arms #and all three die because of getting involved with the supernatural. all of them would presumably not have died otherwise. #coming of age into a world that takes and hurts and destroys and where you are now old enough for people around you to die. #this is not a show about werewolves. #teen wolf #twedit #teenwolfedit #my edit #derek hale #paige krasikeva #scott mccall #allison argent #liam dunbar

Ok soooo I am doing a little Olivia Cooke filmography rewatch (bc she’s mother). And thoroughbreds, the most recent rewatch, is one the reasons why I was so excited to watch hotd. Her performance in it is amazing… and it gave me an idea 🫠

I’m thinking Aemond and oc/reader have been friends for awhile. They are both seen as outcast (Aemond bc of his eye and his overall quiet disposition and reader/oc gets criticized for being… off lol). Let’s say reader/oc’s dad sits on the small council. She’s being around the greens for a minute so she knows the inner dynamics of the family (plus the dynamics between team green and team black). She has seen how viserys treats all of them. One night she’s just like “why don’t we just speed up the inevitable and kill the bastard”.

Let me know if that’s something y’all would like bc I think it could be fun to write

#I know I said I wanted to do the rhaena Helaena oc thing… and I still do! #but this idea is CALLING to meeee #I love the idea of Alicent being the one who pushes her kids to be friends with the new girl around their age #years ago when reader and her family first arrived at court… let’s say right after Aemond losing his eye #and now she’s like ‘oh… I think I pushed my son in the arms are a girl who isn’t… normal’ #she doesn’t have the heart to intervene bc 1. reader’s father is a major player and 2. her son is down bad 😭 #reader/oc is an highborn girlie and has all the things that should make her likable #pretty/well read/from a great family… but also extremely cunning and cold #whenever asked about her weird behavior Aemond is just like ‘she’s amazing.. an misunderstood angel..the Mother and the Maiden in the flesh’ #reader would not be full on she has no emotions and a possible disorder like Amanda but she’s not… well adjusted #aemond targaryen x reader #aemond x reader
