I feel like Leon’s wife’s father invited him out to go fishing on his boat once or something, and it was honestly awkward most of the time.
They’d just be sitting in silence for a couple minutes, waiting for something to appear in the water. Leon would just start whistling to pass the time, trying to make it less awkward in any way.
It’s not because Leon didn’t like his wife’s father—it’s because that man scared him shitless. He was afraid if he even said one thing wrong or did one thing wrong, that man would come for his throat.
Leon would just catch his fish and do whatever that man told him, always ending in “sir” as soon as he finished talking. His wife would make fun of him for how scared he was of her father, but he couldn’t help it. Even if they had three kids and were happily married, he still didn’t wanna get on the guys bad side.
- Anon! 🎀
Oh his wife would bully tf out of him relentlessly. No holding back either. She's adamant her father loves him but he's not so sure.
Until one instance during a camping trip with the family and the grandparents tagged along. Gramps was adamant on teaching Violet to fish but she'd much rather stay and play with Cecilia back at their camp. (They're still younger here probably 9 and 5?) So Leon and the General end up fishing by themselves. It's incredibly awkward but at least there's some beers in the cooler to nurse while they fish.
After a few beers the General starts loosening up. Not eating breakfast because he spent most of the morning digging up worms for bait while everyone else ate. And now their spending the afternoon fishing. After a while, a few trout caught from the lake Leon starts reeling in something pretty big. It's fighting back pretty hard so he's talking Leon through the reeling as he grabs the net to scoop the fish up so the line doesn't break.
Leon ends up reeling in this massive fish. Enough to feed a few people. The General is smiling, smiling.... And patting him on the back. He puts a hand on Leon's shoulder and through tipsy slurs says:
"Leon, I'm proud to have you as my son."
Leon's in shock for a moment. He's been with his wife for years now and this is the first comment that's remotely anything like a compliment from this man with the exception of being called "not completely useless" countless times.
Not long after they go to shore, docking up and tying the boat up as they're cracking jokes all the way back to camp. But like some switch the second his father-in-law sees you, his daughter, he's back to his ways.
"Wow, look at you two! Lotta fish you got. Who caught the big guy?"
"The boy. He's not completely useless after all."
And we're back... Leon sighs, walking over and giving you a kiss hello as you tell him good job. Your father walks into the RV with the fish for his wife to clean.
"He said he was proud to have me as a son..." Leon immediately whispers to you. You smirk kissing his cheek.
"I told you he liked you. He just needs to be drunk to say it."

KEYFRAME TUTORIAL FOR THOSE WITH A WORKING KNOWLEDGE OF PHOTOSHOP AND GIFMAKING
This is my gif with the coloring I want it to have eventually (including the manipulated color). I changed the yellows and reds in the scene to be purple. I want the majority of the gif to be purple and cyan, but do not want it to be on her skin.
Tumblr media
First add a layer mask to the adjustments that are creating the color you want to remove. I used several layers to create the purple coloring, so I grouped them together and added the layer mask to the group instead of having to do them individually. In this case, I erased anywhere the purple was on her skin.
Tumblr media
She is walking away in this scene, so this layer mask alone is not enough. This is where keyframes come in.
In the timeline window, scroll to the layer that your layer mask is on (or in my case, group). On the far left side, each of the layers should have an arrow which toggles a drop down menu. Click it and it will list options for Opacity, Layer Mask Position, and Layer Mask Enable. Make sure the current time indicator (small blue arrow and red vertical line in the timeline window) is positioned at 00:00:00 and then select the clock icon next to Layer Mask Position. It should place a small yellow diamond at the same place as the indicator. Each successive move of the mask will place a grey diamond at the timestamp that you move it.
Tumblr media
CMD+click on the layer mask in the Layers window so that the area of the mask becomes outlined with a dotted line in the main workspace. Click the chain icon next to the layer mask in the Layers window to unlock the mask's movement.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The next steps are the most tedious. You have to manually move the layer mask every few frames to a new position that follows the movement of the gif. I usually zoom the timeline in so that each second is broken into six sections and pick a new layer mask position at approximately each section. If there is more rapid movement in the gif, you may have to pick new positions at more frequent intervals and vice versa.
Tumblr media
After the initial layer mask is set at the 00:00:00 point in the timeline, select the next interval that you want the layer mask to move to. Do this by moving the time indicator to your chosen point. Now with the move tool, click within the layer mask and drag it to where it needs to be to keep coverage on your desired area. The longer/more frames in the gif, the more keyframe points you will have to select. This gif was about 2.5 seconds long and I used 14 different points.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
These are just a few of the keyframes I made on this gif. You can see here that the original area that I erased in the layer mask doesn't quite cover all of her skin throughout the movement. I just erase a bit more until I'm satisfied with the coverage.
Once you have mapped all the points out, deselect the mask area and click the blank space where the chain icon was to make it reappear and return the mask to a locked position.
Scrub through the gif to make sure that the mask covers everything you want and also that the keyframes make it move smoothly. Shorter intervals and minor position changes between keyframes usually keeps choppiness (this normally presents as the mask noticeably jumping to a new position) to a minimum. You should not be able to notice the mask's movement except in the way it removes color from specific areas as intended.
Export and save the gif as normal.
This is my finished result:

#so I have officially been to a club/bar now#tag talk#it was a country bar which was actually cool cause they played like. actual old country none of the post-9/11 shit#except everything else about it was ugh awful. music too loud drinks FUCKING EXPENSIVE holy shit stay home and drink instead pleaseeee#it was a work thing but none of my coworkers I'm friends with actually knew what they were doing so while I wasn't actual awkward they were#and the thing about social interaction is that if no one knows what they're doing it's not very fun#I grabbed someone and started a pool game because the table was open and both of us were absolute garbage at the game#but I was laughing about it and they were like... apologetic about being bad?? d#I did have the classic experience though where your friends disappear and you end up alone because you don't know where they went#all in all an interesting experience but not one I'm eager to repeat.#I did get invited to someone's Christmas Eve Party though which is cool and they gave me their number to make sure I have the info#so probably worth going just for that I think. got their phone number so we can communicate so that's like. successful social connection.#we're already friendly at work but easier to talk to someone when you're both not busy on the opposite side of the store with customers#anyway. who tf out going to clubs. awful environment.#I was like.. twenty percent of the way to being comfortable going out and dancing but hard to just swallow your hesitation#and a) alcohol as liquid courage is hmm not ideal and b) it was expensive anyway#oh well. it'll take more time to come out of my shell and I'd literally never been to a bar/club before in my life.#so I'll have some patience with myself and not be annoyed with how I could have done better or been more confident.#literally totally new environment. also... country music was nice but not a group of people I could really be comfortable around yaknow?#Lotta old white straight couples dancing the country two-step so I didn't really feel like I fit in.#anyway. interesting experience. neat to have. if I ever have a reason to go to a bar again I'll know more about what to expect#also... no one carded me. no one asked for ID? aren't they supposed to#oh wait. comment about the yodeling cause it was actual old country but they didn't do the voice register changes for it#I was like WAIT ARE THEY GONNA YODEL FOR REAL??? but then he didn't he just jumped intervals without shifting voice.#was a little disappointing but maybe a lot to expect from a random stage show at a bar.#wait wait I'm also proud of myself because the bartender asked open or closed and my mind scrambled for half a second to figure it out#but then I realized it meant open tab or closed tab like ordering more drinks and then paying at the end and so obviously closed#cause I ain't buying more than the one drink holy fuck it was so expensive also they mix them way stronger than I like#I like my drink weak ass and pathetic. alcohol is like spice I like a little to taste but not a lot. complimentary not overpowering#I drank it and then remembered I never ate lunch so I was like fuck and immediately went and ate something (work party so free food)

A Special Announcement~ | Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V Tag Force Special Re-Translation Project!
I've been itching to get around to posting about this for a few months now, but wanted to wait until I'd worked on enough for it, but also had the idea to create an announcement trailer to go with it for added good measure--after recording and editing clips for a couple weeks and leveling the audio last night, heremst we are! (For some clips, I forgot to turn off the PPSSPP emulator's DevMenu option so that shows up in the top-left, buuut I didn't feel like re-recording those, lmao.)
Details worth reading below the cut here, but tl;dr work has been in progress for over a year in between things, work will continue to be in progress for a while, and the release will happen when everything's ready, but stay tuned, fun's getting started etc etc~
So, I'm sure most of us are familiar with the as-yet-unlocalized-by-Konami TFSP, the seventh and last entry in the Tag Force series on the PSP that came out early in ARC-V's run (featuring the first five series which was a cool first), as well as the current translations out there originally worked on by the guys at XenoTranslations (omarrrio and ScrewTheRules/ClickClaxer01 at GBATemp handling the card and story/etc translations, respectively) and how there are... some issues with what's out there. Everything from the DM story mode being loaded with YGOTAS references (no shade to YGOTAS and much respect to LK/Martin for his ongoing work on it still making me laugh sometimes, ofc) to the off-the-cuff edginess of 2014-2015-era internet culture and the problematic (in some cases, derogatory) language that permeated it--though to its credit, some parts do have some level of translation attempted, but taken as a whole, it can definitely turn people off from giving the game a try and seeing what it brings to the table (which is still a good amount despite the corners Konami cut here/there compared to prior TF games).
I actually did attempt a translation of my own back in 2015 (if you've been following me for a long time, you might remember it lol), tackling the GX story text starting with Judai's heart events, but eventually put it on the backburner as I focused more on my GX subbing work and beginning to finalize everything (which I'm still doing). Sometime in 2022, a friend over on NeoArkCradle (the "anonymous YGO fan" in the opening screen) was poring over the story text and patching it up the best he could to remove the references and inaccuracies with more coherent work, and after a while of seeing what he was working with in the Discord, I was a bit blown away by just how inaccurate much of it was--so alongside him, and using the better tools available since then (including some really awesome work from both nzxth2 [who did a proper re-translation of 5D's TF6 not too long ago and was kind enough to release his tools for it] and our coding helper Xan1242 who we eventually reached out to for some help), I decided to *cracks knuckles* get involved and help give everything a more accurate and professional translation, much like I do with my GX subs, working directly off the Japanese text and files. I've been taking cracks at everything in between the GX episodes I've been finalizing going back to at least last January (and I'd used my little hiatus after finalizing GX Season 2's subs to really get at some other stuff throughout the game), starting with re-translating DM's story text but also properly translating other aspects of the game, from the character names (using the original Japanese names, including those of the TF-exclusive characters, partly since Konami made a whole mess of them in English TF1-5), in-duel dialogue, pack descriptions, and more to images with Japanese text (such as localizing the in-duel cut-in onomatopoeia as you see in the video above, or other little images throughout) using some Photoshop skills I've picked up. And it's been a joint effort, as said NAC friend and I have been bouncing off how we'd like to see this go between us to stay on the same page and all, while also checking with other translators there for second/third opinions as needed.
Our plan is to release two versions of a translation--one which uses the OCG [translated] card names in Story Mode, in-duel, and other text but not in the game's card system (mainly to deal with story-relevant notes like Osiris vs Slifer with the Gods or things like not-Utopia Hope being symbolic between Yuma and Astral, akin to how I do my GX subs), and one which uses the TCG card names in everything (like how the official subs go about it). While we're mostly working with the Japanese game files due to how the Xeno team went about decoding everything, we'll be using the card-system-related files from the fixed ISO provided by FLSGaming which fixed some issues that had been present there. And Xan has helped us with a plugin that will be used to apply our translations to the system files that were hard to edit otherwise (things like the character and recipe names, as well as the pack names pulled from for the Card Description screen), but more on how that'll work once this is ready for release, lol. At some point, I'd like to also look at HDifying textures and things, but that's definitely a bonus-level thing for after the main work here is done.
SO.
Currently, Story-Mode-wise, I've gone through everything up to Yusei's events--so Dark Yugi/Kaiba/Jounouchi/Ishizu/Mai in DM, Judai/Manjoume/Asuka/Misawa/Ryou in GX, and Yusei in 5D's have been fully retranslated, though I took initial cracks at Yuma and Yuya's events to get content for this video lol (I've also been intentionally holding off on as much ZEXAL as I can until I've properly watched the whole show so I have context). I haven't tackled overworld text yet, though (like pre-duel or the tournament-related text, which is all in the same file as all the story text). I've also been handling the in-duel dialogue as I go through the character stories, so also just up to Yusei, though I did take initial cracks at Aki's, Yuma and Shark's, and Yuya and Yuzu's for the video.
Other things tackled that were sprinkled into the video, along with some other notes:
Pack names and descriptions have been retranslated, though the descriptions may see minor edits closer to release for a little variety between worlds given the different characters at the shop. Character recipe names were also retranslated, with Yugipedia's translations for them used as an occasional second opinion, though ones based on pack names had to be abbreviated in spots.
Menu text, from the Options to Help screens and stuff in between, has been retranslated, as have in-duel text strings (so, you'll see a full "Activate Effect" instead of "Activate" or "Switch to Attack/Defense Position" instead of "Switch to ATK/DEF Position", etc--also fixed the "BATTELE PHASE" graphic typo, and NAC friend created a new translation for the "Turn Change" graphic for accuracy since ENG TF1-5 made that into "Next Player's Turn").
Database stuff, such as the Sound Test, Tutorials, Duel Missions, etc., have been retranslated closer to the Japanese text; originally I retranslated the Tutorial text via hex editor, with compromises done on quite a bit of it due to the space limits, but as Xan recently updated a text extractor tool of theirs to more cleanly pull out and reinsert that text, I've been going through and fleshing out those translations more (on my commutes to/from work mostly, to be productive lol).
As mentioned, I've been localizing/translating Japanese-text images throughout the game as I come across them, like with the in-duel onomatopoeia that come up during cut-ins or images in the shop/duel/etc screens using Japanese text, to make sure the game is fully translated.
The series logos, used during the title sequence and in the Series Select screens, were updated with translated fan edits shared on Deviantart (which we'll credit in the final release) for DM and GX, while the 5D's-ARC-V logos were edited to enlarge the "Yu-Gi-Oh!" text on them that was pretty hard to see originally.
The game's original opening sequence starts on an anti-piracy message before going into the Konami logo and then a "From Yu-Gi-Oh!..." screen before the opening animation for each series logo--the original team decided to use the first image to vent their frustration at Konami for not localizing this game, and while that's valid (to some extent), we thought we'd use the opportunity to dedicate this project to Kazuki Takahashi for inspiring our love for YGO and the place it's had in our hearts for all these years.
We'll be updating the names of cards that had TCG releases after the original patch was worked on/updated by FLSG to those corresponding names.
Xan has been working on many UI fixes for us to apply with this, among them 3-line dialogue box text as is used in the ENG TF1-5 games--once implemented for TFSP, I'll be going over everything to make full use of that extra space where needed, so things might not look as they do in the video by then.
Character bios will be worked on after I've done the story stuff, though I've taken initial cracks at it for Yuma and Yuya's bios for the video, along with translating the location/affiliation names ("Domino High School," "Satellite," etc).
Currently no release date is planned, as I'm working on this between my GX-finalizing work and actual IRL work, though we'll see how later this year looks as more work gets done--but as noted in the video, all things being equal, it will be released when everything is ready. I'll try to post regular updates or rambles now that this announcement's been made, lol, but do try not to constantly check in on a release date. 🙏🏽
All that said, I think that covers just about everything I wanted to put out there with this, lol. It's been fun to work on this so far and getting to see what I've re-translated in-game is definitely neat; looking forward to us being able to release everything when ready.
Stay tuned for more; the fun's just getting started!

"averagegirlie" is just "xxoxobree", formerly known as "breeandhermunches" on a burner. newsflash, your "fav" miles writer isn't who you think she is!
ik a lot of us must be VERY confused so let me help you out. @/averagegirlie and @/xxoxobree are the same mfkn person! why did bree make this account? i assume that it's so she could fend for herself and keep the "unbothered" act up on her main page. that's why she deletes all her reblogs after arguing w someone then comes over to this account to start bsing. not to mention she can say extremely problematic things with no repercussions, because she doesn't have a following on that page + it's not tied to her.. at least it wasn't before! bree's a very messy liar. i peeped the truth so lemme share it w y'all.
bree if you're seeing this, go take a couple shots before you read. you should've kept it cute but you didn't, so let's get nasty mf.
i have receipts! let's start right here cz i find this the funniest:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
nobody but her spells "internet" like that... this is one of the many examples of the two accounts talking alike, even though bree said she wouldn't refer to "yao" as a friend when the whole rashad thing was going down. yesterday, i reminded yao of that. she said "i like bree, so what" but she deleted that and changed it to "when are y'all gonna catch on to the fact that we talk?" mhm.. bree's a lil confused, but next!
Tumblr media
y'all see "yao's" tag? telling alexa to play some bs... then y'all see bree?? NEXT!
Tumblr media
go look on miss average's page. she only comes online to defend and ride the hell out of bree's dick. remember ts w amani? why are you going so hard for someone who says they dk you like that LMFAO. not to mention, when the rashad shit was happening, bree said "this my girl and she never been wrong" but then she turns around and says "i wouldn't say we're friends" WHICH ONE IS IT MISS MUNCH??! 😭🤣🤣 next!
Tumblr media
why we praising tf out of bree's oc? ts was ai bro. we got a self supafan. next...
Tumblr media
look at this smart anon, putting tg the pieces and shit. "ash and dalia fight your battles every time" is literally.. a lie. what battles are we referring to? talia's never in drama as much as you're implying. and ima ride for my friends anyway, tf? but my entire blog will never be centered around ONE human being. it ain't that serious ever. "yao" and bree need hobbies cz writing obv ain't doing it for her. next.
Tumblr media
bree has also said she's messy lol. she likes drama. hm!
Tumblr media
look at how she came on her white horse when bree was battling the great war w anons over miles morales smut (which i don't fw, js to be clear.) who summoned her? BREE LMFAIOFHDGFKJAS... NEXT!!!
Tumblr media
here's miss xxoxo munches being ableist, much like her alter ego. bro went silent and blocked lia after this. now let's get into miss average again.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
look at this bs. ion even gotta say much.. this girl is black & not chinese!! y'all should know why this is weird. here's the "evidence" she gave me btw:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
here's me proving her wrong! she tried! next.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
y'all see the way they're tagging their posts w their usernames? mhm.. ik you do.
Tumblr media
HMMM....
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
these are both bree. i don't mean to bring up maye again, but i have to for context. what happened wasn't js "drama"... the things she said to dalia were racist + that post she was lyin' about lia in. she also liked the post.. dead giveaway you silly bitch! 🥱 nd she was also instigating in honey's inbox. i know her typing style and her emoji colors lol. it's common sense atp. it's not hard to tell when an anon is bree. and from what i'm seeing not even maye is fw her.. LMFAISAIDHSAY GIRL YOU'RE DONE! 😭 feel free to go thru their accs, you'll see ts too. she's funny asf for this, i'll give her that and that only. i've never laughed so much in under 24 hours. 💓
in conclusion, bree is messy, bored, insecure, ableist & miserable! she thought nobody would ever find out but here we are today. she fronts not gaf but then switches to this acc to let off some serious steam... as miss freeman once said: "Alexa, play yikes!"
but bless bree 💗 maybe if you change now, you'll still be able to collect your tokens like dalia says.

Coming out of my shell to say that I'm petitioning to be Leon's annoying little sister
Some platonic sibling hcs under the cut!!
Warnings: Platonic! Au, a little bit of sibling violence and A LOT of sibling banter, mentions of ptsd, drinking and alcoholism and events in RE2 and RE4
Tumblr media
It's always I want him to rail me! I want his babies! And I can respect that I can I can but...have you ever considered being his annoying little baby sibling that adopts him as your new family member 😇
Like yeah nah bro I wanna annoy him and tease him for having no rizz AT ALL and just all around annoy tf outta him 😤
Like he's an orphan but not AnYmOrE, scooping this traumatised boy up and making him WISH he never met you but also is weirdly protective you who "adopted" him as their "sibling", and now won't stop saying "point and laugh!" out loud everytime he does smth stupid in the middle of the office when hes back from a mission.
Like, please he just needs an annoying little sibling in his life, I know I can't fix him but by God can I be the annoying little sister he so desperately needs in his life
Like....I KNOW his heels have never known the wrath of MY FEET clipping his shoes up when he's walking too slow but he NEEDS to 😭😭😭 I need to post this and find my PEOPLE
Also I feel like being a sibling vibe you'd have tagged along as a civilian in RE2, also not knowing what the fuck was going on but hey, you're in this fucked up shit together now ig. 🤷‍♀️ And you have some family/friends out of state so after the event you take him to chill at a beach or smth w your family/friends bc you're both well deserving of a fucking break while this ptsd hits the both of you
n everyone talks about how fucking awkward he was w Sherry in game but ayo hes REALLY feeling it now...
Like you're joking when you're like "it's like you've never been to one of these Leon 🤨"
N he just looks at you like "Yeah I haven't 😐"
AND YOU KAHSJEVDHEKEHEJE
"You're like 😶....bro....you have now been absorbed.....as my older brother"
And he's like 🧐🧐🧐 at first bc what??? How do I interact w these ppl??? Why me???? but ofc they love him, he's RE2 Leon and although he's super fucking traumatised and still awkward asf he just wants to make a good impression on his friends' close ones
Also he's like sitting there like damn,,,,,I wish I had that 😔
So you're like wELP noW yoU dO 🤪
And of course they're super grateful to him bc he saved you so they treat him nicely but he kinda gets that a lot so he's just like 🧍
So after you tell them hes now your older brother you've deemed it so 🤗 they just start to treat him like that and he just, doesn't know what to do??? Do I salute them, (y/n)???
Do it make him salute them for at least three weeks until you tell him absolutely no one does that and he was stupid for ever believing you 😈
Tbh I feel like this would work for the first couple of times until he mentions it at work in passing n everyone's like 🤨,,,,so then the next time he sees you he just has that pissed off older sibling face and he's coming for you so you better have ran like you did in Raccoon City kahsjehs 🏃‍♀️💨
But yeah after a while you guys stay in touch, he's training and drowning his pain with alcohol and you're trying to get him into more healthier ways of dealing w his pain as well as laughing at him kshsjdhsjs
your just sort of there to support him even when he's pushing you away bc no idiot I will not leave you alone when you're training I will watch and I will LAUGH when you fall. But I will also cheer you on when you win and give you my favourite hello kitty bandaid if you ever get hurt 🥰
And he's super grateful?? Bc your like this stable sort of annoying person who's there for him no matter what.
Like he knows he can come to yours to crash if he's had one too many drinks to holds his hair when he's puking his guts out hungover.
Yes you are there in the morning to laugh and yell at him for being stupid but he also saw the glass of water you left on the couch next to the ibuprofen and chuck bucket for him. And the little blankets and they you always seem to have waiting on him when he arrives
Yes you will be there to do it all over again if he comes walking to your place after he's drunk again.
And Yes, you will also be there to show him all the dumb photos you took of him drunk on your Kodak once they get developed and cackle in his face 😈
He like actually learns to take a load off with you and relax a little bc you have a bond and you weren't just saying that when you took his ass on holiday, you really meant you'd be there for him and it means a lot to him bc he's never really had that stability in his life before 😔
Also bc the trauma bonding you just get him ✨️ like you can both relate to the horrors you saw and what you unknowingly found out about Umbrella.
Like maybe you work w him in the field or just as an archivist or smth but you're helping him w this cause too, dealing w the same or similar shit he's been dragged into so ofc you guys form a bond w each other.
And so by the time RE4 rolls around imagine you're like talking him through his mission on the radio n he's soo serious around Ashley and Luis so you can't help it you burst out laughing bc he's so stiff, and he's like THIS is a LIFE and DEATH siTuAtiOn now do your fUcKiNg jOb SeNd me tHe coOrDiNatEs
And you're like okay okay grumpy pants 😈 I'll give you the coordinates but you have to say pwetty pwease w a cherry on top for me 🥰
If it were anyone else he'd turn the radio off and find it himself but bc he does care for you, and you're like the only stable platonic thing he's had in ages he's like cursing and swearing until he FINALLY caves in and does it
So you give him the coordinates and just as he's about to go back to almost dying your like "I got that recorded fyi" and he's just 😤😤😤 at Luis for no real reason other than his 'little shit of an adopted sibling' kwhsjshdhd
But also imagine randomly calling him constantly bc you're really worried for him bc this time your not there with him and it scares you
And he's like, I'm not dying here bc who else is gonna put up w your shithead behaviour??? n you're just like, 'aww Leon!! 🥺🥺'
So hes like 'yeah so stfu and let me do my mission 😤' but you swear you can hear the smile in his voice through the radio
OR if you're there, with him it's even MORE chaos kshdjdhdjdn
Like imagine Luis flirting w you n him being all protective older brother on you, n you're just like 🙄 siblings amirite, btw Leon that's a prime example of how to properly rizz someone up you loser 😇 n your not running from ganados this time your running from him (again) 🏃‍♀️💨
If you engage in sibling violence he's like, you haven't hit me once this whole mission n you're like, I'm giving you a vacation since we're running for our godamned lives out here n hes thinking like 🥺 my shins have never know rest like this before since I met you 🥺
but he just gives you a little smirk 'heh' or some one liner and that's it he did it to himself his shins indeed do NOT know rest 💀
Being teased by him more and more as he matures but dw, you're always there to annoy him back 😇 and run tf away when he gives that older sibling look like he's about to wreck your shit for ever thinking of crossing him lajsjsjsbs

Interview from Classic Rock Magazine #309
Tumblr media
What stands out in your memories of 2022?
TF: Going back to touring was a fantastic feeling! In the beginning it felt almost unreal; still with a bit of restriction, which was kind of unintuitive, but the last tour we did, in August/September, was as good as normal. We released the record when we said we would, we managed to back it up with seventy shows. We cancelled one show in total. That's a good result.
Impera has dark, historically rooted themes, but it's also music that makes the listener feel so many things - joy, aggression, excitement, sorrow... After such a turbulent couple of years there's something cathartic about that.
I am very happy about how the record came out, and that it seems to be well-received among our fans. That's a tremendous feeling. I feel like I managed to do a lot of things I set out to do. We're gonna continue next year, we still have a lot of things to do. But right now we're just recharging a little.
Kaisarion has been a hit live. For a song about the brutal murder of a female Roman philosopher, it really gets the party going.
Yeah, I'm still surprised that with a song that does what it does - and was so well received and opened up the shows - there's never been talk about turning it into a single. Which I don't understand. But at the end of the day it's a label decision, and people around that decide which ones will, quote-unquote, 'work best'. And I've realised that I'm not really capable of choosing. I remember Mary On A Cross was a B-side.
It's weird how that happens with some songs.
Yeah, I must say I feel very optimistic with regards to how that song is taking a life on its own. Even though it was technically a B-side on a fun additional thing [2019's Seven Inches Of Satanic Panic] - it was not our main single from a new album we have always played it ever since it came out, on every show. Maybe a few exceptions, but I've always pushed that song as something that I felt very good about.
On that subject, you're viral on TikTok now. What is it about that platform that appeals?
I hardly knew what it was until two months ago! I have two almost fourteen-year-old kids, so of course I'd heard the phenomenon mentioned. It's an insanely big thing among kids and teenagers. What happens is they create these short snippets, funny, sad or emotional clips, to which they often tag some sort of music or sound. And if you are a creator of sound or music, you might be tagged on to a clip that might go 'viral'. That way you hit a lot more people that you might never entertain, you know, aiming your guns at. So it's a bit of a crap-shoot as well. We are not a big mainstream act, so obviously there's going to be a mixed bag of reactions. Because people in general are kind of strange to a lot of these aesthetics of rock, and especially the darker aspects of it.
It has brought the band more attention.
But if all that attention is a good or a bad thing, we do not know yet. There have been people who might have come on to the track, and as soon as they see what the band is about - or what they perceive the band to be about - there's backlash, because it's like: "Oh my, God fearing hater!" "I don't like it!" "This is communist bullshit!" So there are two sides of the coin. But it's a great bonus if we can get new people, especially kids, into liking rock music or other things, or if it makes them feel in any way better-informed, if you will.
Do you think TikTok will be a bigger deal for musicians in the future?
I don't know. I think when you're a musician, and you're making records, you need to have a certain strategic mind. But your job at the end of the day is making records and playing live. That is the heart of the matter. If you sit around waiting for a viral thing to happen, you can wait a long fucking time.
Back in May, the identities of the Nameless Ghouls were confirmed on social media. How do you feel about them not being strictly nameless any more?
Well, they haven't really been for quite some time. So for me it was not an overnight sensation. As long as it doesn't in any way interfere with what we are doing, there's no desire that I have for people not to feel proud or happy about what they're doing.
You've lamented not being able to play more guitar. If you could be the guitarist for a day in any band, which would it be?
Good question. There's several bands. I would have loved to be what Mick Taylor was in 1969, coming into the Rolling Stones at their best era - but I would have stayed around! That would have been a great experience. Very fun music to play. Definitely within the limits of what I can play really well. I spent a lot of time as a kid learning how to play guitar. Otherwise I would love to play in the Red Hot Chilli Peppers; I love what John Frusciante does. Def Leppard might be a good fit too. Joe Elliott spoke very highly of Impera when it came out. That would have also been really cool. Also a fantastic band. In an alternative reality, in an alternative life, I would have wanted to do a lot of other things. But I did hear that [Joe said those things], and it was very heartwarming, of course. A very big honour.

Hoi!
1. how did you discover your f/o’s content?
4. who was your first favorite character when you initially got into your f/o’s source content? was it your f/o from the very beginning?
6. if your f/o is from a series, which episode/movie/game/book of their source content is your favorite?
for the meta asks, for whoever you'd like to answer for.
-@redwingedwolves
Hi hi!! Thank you so much for the ask!! I'll answer these for Charlie, Simon and Sir Pentious!!
Tumblr media
1. How did you discover your F/O’s content?
I had heard about Charlie's game when it was in early development!! I really wanted to get back into the community because it was one of the most fun fandoms I had been in in the last couple of years, so I got the game! And when I tell you that I fell for him, I mean like falling down five flights of stairs, I fell fast and I fell HARD.
With Simon it's not as interesting, I was in the fandom since the start of the show! When I was almost done rewatching adventure time, Fionna and Cake was announced and it made me even more interested in the series and its lore! He was one of my first controversial crushes because I really liked him as Ice King back in the day, and the "safe" side did what it did best (bullied tf out of me because of it)
I literally watched Hazbin Hotel because of Sir Pentious! I saw some of my mutuals posting about the series and him specifically, I liked his design (especially because I have a soft spot for nagas and lamias) and yeah, it felt like he was specifically crafted for my tastes!
4. Who was your first favorite character when you initially got into your F/O’s source content? Was it your F/O from the very beginning?
Charlie was and still is my favorite character from ADSM! I also like Cameron, but I want to wait and learn more about the other characters before I make a heavier judgement on them!
Also, I completely forget that there are more routes in the game other than Charlie's... I just can't say no to him!!
Simon started off as Ice King and he was one of my favorites, but I really thought I'd be way more interested in Finn or Marceline (they're still F/Os of mine, but not on the same level as Simon), and having my crush on him get so much worse as I learned more about him was genuinely mesmerizing.
I'm glad Fionna & Cake gave me the chance to experience that feeling all over again
Sir Pentious was my favorite character before I even got into the show itself, so I wasn't even surprised when I immediately shoved him into the F/O list once I finished watching it XD
6. If your F/O is from a series, which episode/movie/game/book of their source content is your favorite?
Anything involving Charlie makes me super happy, I lose count of how many times a day I refresh the tags for ADSM to see if there's new content of him, plus I'm always trying to come up with interesting questions about him for the creator's CC!!
For Simon, it's three different episodes!
As Ice King it's Princess Monsters Wife! I've watched it many, many times! Seeing him being so domestic and sweet gives me a clear view of his relationship with Ocean Princess!
As corrupted Simon it's Simon And Marcy, one of my favorite episodes of Adventure Time in general! Watching him slowly lose himself to the crown's magic is genuinely heartbreaking, especially as a disabled neurodiverse person
As Simon himself, it's Simon Petrikov. All episodes of F&C explore different aspects of mental illness and trauma, but having him trying to convince people that he's not what he used to be, how he used to act, while everyone is just upset about him being too much of a downer is excellent writing and it made me re-live many moments through my own healing journey
For Sir Pentious it's definitely Radio Killed The Video Star. Pentious is not a character that's liked by the creator, so moments where he's not in active distress are rare to say the least, but It Starts With Sorry is one of my favorite scenes of his, seeing Charlie being so genuinely kind to him, when she's the third most powerful being in all of hell makes me smile

20 Questions for Fic Writers
ty for the tag @tracingpatternswrites 💕 this was a lot of fun
1. How many works do you have on ao3?
76
2. What’s your total Ao3 word count?
786,190 (400k of which was in 2022? what a year)
3. What fandoms do you write for?
star wars (original trilogy + the mandalorian mostly), hp (marauders) and good omens. I have some glee fics from ~2013 but we don't talk about those
4. What are your top five fics by kudoss?
A grave mistake my most beloved <3 red lips and rosy cheeks right back where we started from brush the sky (wild considering it's for such a rare pair but i did start writing it 10 years ago) help me hold onto you (i had no idea this had got so popular! i love this fic so much i'm so pleased)
5. Do you respond to comments?
i am absolutely horrendous at responding to comments. my ao3 inbox is at 544 unread i'm so sorry
6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
oh hands down never doubt that it was real which was full of all my tragic comphet feelings before i realised i could just fix canon instead
7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
hmm well excluding fluffy oneshots it would probably be red lips and rosy cheeks which is tooth rottingly sweet
8. Do you get hate on fics?
i got a LOT of angry comments on a grave mistake. there were people who were really really mad bc they took one character's side or were outraged at infidelity which was wild to me because that is literally what the fic is about it says right there in the summary + tags. i also had someone get angry at me for using the tag comphet for an m/m fic because it was originally a term coined for lesbians. people were wild on that fic i've also got a couple of really vicious comments/anons about me'usharim bc it's set in israel. truly, the audacity to write a jewish story set in a jewish country
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
i've written most kinds of smut in terms of gender/emotional context/relationship dynamic, but i've never done anything kink-related and probably never will
10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?
no i do not but i have a tenth or fourteenth doctor/good omens au circulating in my mind at all times
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
word for word? no
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
no but i'd love if someone did! i'm very slowly working on translating charm work into french honestly bc i wanted to see if i could
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
yes! it's so much fun! i wrote architects anonymous with @sliebman10 as part of the hp 2022 mixed up writers fest where we took it in turns to write a chapter without planning the plot together. then @impishtubist and i thought it would be fun to bring our own chaos to that idea and figures of delight (drawn after you) was born
14. What’s your all time favorite ship?
hanleia <3
15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
what's life without a little risk which i want to finish soo much but i have no idea where i'm going with it. my writing style has changed so much, my characterisation of remus is fundamentally different, and i've written so much of what would happen next in other stories. i kinda just want to find a way to wrap it up at this point
16. What are your writing strengths?
hmmm... I think realism in terms of depicting emotions and relationships. I've been told I'm really good at writing intense smut which isn't something I ever thought would be a strength 😂 but I'll take it. also making story settings really immersive, especially when the setting is central to the plot like red lips and rosy cheeks or right back where we started from. i have a lot of fun with that
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
slipping into gratuitously flowery language or emotional intensity. a grave mistake was soooo intense and it really changed my writing style so now i have to constantly remind myself that sometimes i need to chill tf out
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?
i do this all the time! red lips and rosy cheeks had french, italian, hebrew and arabic and it was soooo much fun. i also write quite a of mando'a into mandalorian fics. i think it adds a lot to the story and i love reading fics with multiple languages dropped in
19. First fandom you wrote for?
doctor who (which is not on ao3 thank god)
20. Favourite fic you’ve written?
a grave mistake and it always will be ❤️
no pressure tags for @strugglequill @lynxindisguise @squintclover @kleyamarki 😘

Very Quick TFCon 2023 Recap!
This past weekend I attended TCCon 2023 in Toronto! This is the first convention I've attended since the start of the pandemic (aside from a couple of very local ones) and it was so good. I love being among my people, the geeks. :) Spouse also attended with me; he is only a TF fan by osmosis (seeing how enthusiastic I am about stuff makes him happy about it too), but he enjoys the vibe of sci-fi and adjacent cons. He also claims to have had a good time.
Before we left, I was concerned about a few things: catching Covid again, boarding the cat, dealing with the disaster that flying in Canada has become lately, etc. We masked up anytime we were in con space, and I remain hopeful that our recent infections acted like a booster against catching it again. If we make it to this Sunday without coming down with it, I'll consider it a success.
Before I have to go to work tomorrow, I wanted to get my thoughts down about how the con went: the amazing, the good, and the disappointing.
The Amazing
Friends. Being able to catch up with (and in some cases meet!) other TF fans who I've chatted with online over the years is always amazing. I honestly don't want to start naming names because then I'll forget someone and feel bad. There is something special about being able to put a face to an online name.
If you were there and I missed you, I am so sorry. I tried, I honestly did. But I am an incredibly awkwardly shy potato in person, and I could only shove myself out of my introvert shell so much to message people and say "LET'S MEET NOW." Sometimes I depend on other people to say "PIPER! LET'S MEET NOW" because otherwise I dither and dither until the weekend is over and the chance is gone. :(
Thank you to everyone who put up with me; I love you guys. <3
The Pros. I steeled myself and went to the three pros who I wanted to talk to: Alex Milne, James Roberts, and Jack Lawrence. Alex was selling copies of Hot Motor Oil (omg book number two is INSANE and I cackled over it repeatedly), so while he was sketching in my copy I was able to thank him for the commission he did for me a while back. He said some very nice things about my choice! but it's important for me to thank people in person for the commissions they do for me. :3 Same thing with Jack; I got a commission from him just a little while ago, and I LOVE it. He was also very nice, even though I was only at his table to thank him and not buy anything. >.> (Next time I need to bring larger print protectors; his prints were GORGEOUS but there was no way I'd be able to get them home safely.)
And I bought some scripts from James; I've been dying to read the annotated ones because I am interested in writing my own scripts, and I wanted to see how he put his together and the thoughts behind them. I was able to tell him about how it was fanfic that led me to MTMTE which led me back into the TF fandom after a 25+ year absence, and he was really happy to hear that. (And commented about how the message that fanfic can bring in new fans needs to get back to the IP holders...)
The Costumes. Briefly, AMAZING costumes this year. I got some good pictures of some of them, but the creativity out there is fantastic.
The Good.
The Loot. I got a decent amount of stuff this year, and thanks to Spouse tagging along I was able to bring back a bit more than usual. And some of the stuff was for him, so he got something out of it too. :3
Tumblr media
Non-TF Meetups. By happenstance, a coworker of mine lives in the area, as does some WoW guildies that Spouse knows. We'd never met any of these people in person, so we made time for that and I'm happy we did. Also, not having to go downtown? Priceless. XD
Cat Boarding. We boarded our new cat while we were away, and it went well! She is very adaptable, and I'm glad that they liked her. This was sort of a test run for longer vacations, and now I feel comfortable leaving her there for longer periods of time.
The Disappointing
The Pros I Didn't Meet. See: awkward potato. I did want to say hello Frank Todaro (he has a very good moustache by the way) and tell him in person how much I enjoyed his work on WFC (as Starscream and Rattrap - but Starscream specifically was great), but there was always someone at his table when I went by, and I'm an awkward potato, and I (?) didn't really want an autograph but felt bad just going and talking to him without buying something like I did to Jack, so I didn't talk to him. And David Kaye ALWAYS had a huge lineup so that was totally out.
No Toyhax? I was hoping that Toyhax would be there so I could buy some decals for the car (ones I ALMOST bought in 2019 but didn't, and I've regretted it ever since.) But they were not at the con. (I also kind of wanted some other sticker sets.) I've checked their website and I think the car decals in 2019 were being sold by someone just sharing their table but I can't remember who, so - blah. Too bad.
Travel Shenanigans. It all worked out in the end, but our trip to Toronto was a little... interesting thanks to some computer glitches with the airline. It added stress to me that I didn't need. 
Writing. Hahhahahaaa! No writing was done over the weekend. Zero words written. I was either too busy, or too tired. :/
Health Issues. I won't get into it much here, but attending the convention made me realize that I am still suffering some effects from the Covid infection I had at the end of May. I have a doctor's appointment in a few weeks so I can let her know about it, but we'll see if there's anything they can actually do. -.-;
And that was TFCon 2023! I hope I can attend again next year; this really was a great experience.

i was tagged by @trampledundercas to talk about 8 shows to get to know me, thank you for the tag!
i’ll be talking about the shows in the chronological order in which i started to watch them, to make it easier for myself lmao.
1. buffy the vampire slayer: listen. if there is just one show. one piece of media on this earth, that you need to know about in order to understand me, it’s buffy. this show came out when i was a kid, and i watched it even though i hardly grasped what it was about back then. all i knew was that david boreanaz was hella hot and also buffy + angel forevah. obviously, as i grew up, my opinions changed, and they continue to evolve even now. (for example: season 2 was my favorite season for the longest time, but the last couple of years, season 5 sneaked up on me and is now my favorite season). every time i rewatch it, i get something new out of the experience. the way i talk, my humor, my taste in media and ships, my very being has been influenced by this show. i know in my heart that this will always be my favorite show.
2. dawson’s creek: listen. i can’t really explain this one, except for the fact that it definitely solidified my love for the friends to lovers trope, and the enemies to friends to lovers trope. it is just *chefs kiss* and yes i also watched this way too young but ehh i survived. 
3. the o.c.: i was old enough to browse the internet when this show came out, thus i finally stumbled upon livejournal, and by extension, fanfiction. this was the first show i ever read fanfic for, and also m/m fanfic that i wasn’t looking for but that definitely rewired my brain for good. so. yeah. ever since, i have been permanently online. so there is that! plus - and this is a big factor too - it literally shaped my music taste to this day. next to the national, my favorite artists/bands are death cab and rachael yamagata, who i was introduced to by the o.c.
4. the office u.s.: next to the o.c., the office u.s. was a show i read a LOT of fanfic for at a formative time in life. jim/pam was my jam (hah. the ones who know, know). again: friends to lovers.... cannot get enough of it. i will say this though: once they get together, unfortunately the show did lose it’s spark for me. but alas. season 1-3 will always have a special place in my heart.
5. how i met your mother: i have a very complicated relationship with this show. a love/hate relationship, if you will. those who are familiar with it, undoubtedly know why. but this WAS a great show imo, at least when it went with the flow. again, the enemies to friends to lovers of it all.... yeah. that plus nonlinear storytelling? hellooo. sign me tf up. 
6. the wire: this show was just so good. SO GOOD. it was like watching a novel come to life. it definitely changed the way i look at tv, and made me appreciate long form storytelling.
7. breaking bad: this is purely a case of excellent television. it didn’t change me as a person, perse, but i cannot picture my life withouth this experience. i binged the first 3 seasons when i was sick, in the hiatus before season 4, and watched the last two seasons live. my friends and i had a watch party for the series finale, we baked a cake and made fake blue crystal meth, it was a whole thing lmao. good times indeed. 
8. supernatural. need i say more?
this was a lot of fun ngl. i’ll tag @regardingjenmish @clarkenting @blanketforcas @thosewildcharms but, no pressure, feel free to ignore lmao

Some people don't understand context.
All members of 1D were close on another level of closeness you don't see in any other group but that's bc they spend 90% of 5 years together. They spent more time with the rest of 1D then their families but context shows you L&H interactions/what they did was different between them then any other duo.
~
Example One Dirty Clothes Sharing:
During early 1D years one of the boys would wear a t-shirt or jacket owned by another 1D member bc they all shared a tour bus and were usually in a rush so they just grabbed whatever clean shirt or jacket they found. Also in some early 1D concerts the boys would swap outfits but it didn't meant anything past a joke or I'm in a rush when it came to any 1D duo [besides L&H] sharing clothes. Here's young N&H wearing the same jacket not a big deal.
Tumblr media
BUT what is a big deal is Louis wearing H unwashed just worn yesterday tshirt. H wore a black tshirt tucked into his belt/jeans during rehearsals than later Louis is wearing the same shirt at the concert with a belt line showing it hasn't been washed since H wore it. That's a thing certain couples do where one wears their SO sweatshirt or t-shirt after them bc they like how it smellstreminds them of their SO.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Example Two Unnecessary Clothes Sharing:
During early 1D tours one boy would wear another boys shirt in a rush BUT that was during a time 1D was on tour and only happened during their early years where all were around the same size. With L&H they shared clothes all. the. time. throughout all of 1D when H was much bigger & at times where it was inconvenient or even unnecessary to wear the others clothes. Like Louis wearing H Chelsea boots that were multiple sizes to big or Louis wearing H jeans that were almost falling off of him. What does he gain from this ??? It's very inconvenient ???
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Example Three After 1D Clothes Sharing:
Unlike other 1D duos L&H were sharing clothes long after 1D was over ie. the infamous umbro shirt or all the runway/model outfits they would split. If they didn't regularly see each other, weren't doing 1D tours anymore & didn't live together why were L&H still doing this? Shows you with L&H sharing clothes/outfits means something more.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Example Four Romantic Moments:
No other boys got close during interviews or concerts in a sexual or romantic way like L&H did. There are so many instances where H almost risked it all and was contemplating kissing Louis or just had no shame at all staring straight at Louis and his mouth. Umm I don't see any other two doing that.
Tumblr media
Example Five Flirting:
We always had the boys acting close during a concert BUT with L&H you had Louis being obvious on stage by looking down at THAT area, then giving H THAT look while thrusting his body towards him. Who tf else was doing shit like that ??? He was bery clearly flirting with H. And of course you had L&H during interviews being in their own little world chatting/flirting away so much so they would miss the fact someone asked them a question. Why is Louis giving H THAT look here and why does H get so flustered over it ??? Use your brain...
Tumblr media
Example Six Jealousy:
Most seem to just ignore when they post a moment of Z, Li or Ni getting close to one half of larry the other was off to the side giving them a look of if you don’t stop touching my man we are going to have a problem. The death glares to Z, the slapping to Li or "DO ME A FAVOR 😡" and my personal fav the "I'm getting jealous over here" line. Every other duo ship "moments" involving half of larry completely cut out the part where the OTHER half of larry is unhappy with what's happening even if it's just them laughing with each other. Like damn chill we know he's yours you don't need to act this way. 😭😭😭
Just type in "jealous louis" on the gif tag you will see all those "Z&H / N&H / Li&H moments" where louis is off to the side making some side remarks like this one where he clearly doesn't like their closeness.
Tumblr media
Example Seven Mario Kart:
Someone tried to tell me all members did/said questionable things with eachother so this interview is not a big deal. I promise you no other duo or any two "just guy friends" did anything close to what L&H did in the Mario Kart interview. L&H really just casually talked about how they are vers and based on who is tired that day and who has the energy is how they decide who tops and who bottoms. I'M SORRY WHAT ?!?! That is not normal and something two "just guy friends" would EVER say. No other duo made "casual hints" about their sex life with eachother and no one would make a joke like that.
~
So always remember context matters to everything any 1D duo did. What L&H did wasn't the same as any other 1D duo it just gets over shadowed as "two close friends" bc 1D was just THAT friend group bc they had no one else to rely on or really had anyone else to see that they genuinely liked to be around but it was anything but "just two close friends."

Conner didn't know what he was doing. Why was he here, standing outside of Jason Todd's apartment? What compelled him to do this? Why was there a ring in his back pocket? Why was he knocking on the door?
Roy opened it after a few seconds. "Conner Kent? This is uh, random."
Conner shrugged sheepishly. "Yeah, sorry. Is Jason here?"
He nodded. "Yeah, he is. You wanna come in? He's kinda in the middle of something."
"I would appreciate that. Thank you."
Roy opened the door, allowing for Conner to come in. "Welcome to our little apartment. Sorry for the mess."
"Who was at the door?" Jason called from the living room.
Roy chuckled. "Uhm, Superboy. He wants to talk to you Jaybird." He looked over at the living room.
Conner did the same. He watched Jason set down the hairbrush he had in his hand, standing up from his spot on the floor. "How's your daughter been?"
"Good. Jay was doing her hair. Lian loved it when he braids it. She's been doing really well in school, she's the best in math-" Roy stopped himself. He was getting carried away talking about his daughter. A common occurrence whenever anyone asks about her.
Jason walked into the kitchen with a sigh. "Clone boy. Pleasure to see you. Why are you here?" He lent against the counter, an annoyed look at his face.
Conner looked at him nervously before setting a small box. He set it down in front of him. "I wanna propose to your brother."
He looked down at the box then back up at Conner a few times. "Wait... What? You're gonna... Propose to Timothy?"
The son of Superman nodded. "Look at it. I think he'll like it."
He took the box, opening it up. A small gold ring with pearls along it, a small diamond topping it all off was revealed. "Gold. The replacement loves gold."
"I know. I think he'll like it. I just don't know if it's the right time." He nodded slowly.
Jason glared at him. "Don't say that." Conner looked at him confused.
"Don't say what? I think he will like it." He grabbed the box from Jason, turning it over in his hand.
"Don't say it's not the right time," Jason looked back at Roy. He smiled at the scene of him playing with Lian. "In our fields, you never know when you'll kick it." He looked back at Conner, a serious expression over his face. "So if you don't take this chance now, you may never get the chance again."
Conner looked back down at the box. "You're right," he looked up at Jason. "I have to ask you something."
"What is it?"
"Can I marry him?"
Jason's eyes went wide. "Wait, are you like asking my permission?"
He nodded. "I was gonna ask all of you. Decided to come to you first."
"Oh." Was all Jason said.
"So may I?"
He stared at Conner for a minute, almost like he was considering it. "Of course. The replacement deserves to be happy."

I love the idea that Roy and Jason got married for like tax reasons and because married couples can't testify against each other. But I also love the idea that Roy proposed with a ring pop.
Roy, on one knee with a blue raspberry ring pop: Jaybird, I know we aren't dating. But will you make me the happiest potential criminal in the world, and be my husband? Will you marry me?
Jason, very confused and very annoyed: What- Uh sure?
Roy, getting teary eyed: Oh I love you Jaybird!

Conner: You know I'm half kryptonian, right?
Tim, wrapping up with bleeding arm: Yes, I'm aware.
Conner, annoyed: Then why the fuck do you insist on jumping in front of me?
Tim: People were shooting at you.
Conner:
Tim:
Tim, realizing his mistake: PEOPLE WERE SHOOTING AT YOU!
