The young thousands. As it has been on repeat for weeks for me and if I don't talk about it soon I may very well explode.

It's tempting to say my favorite line is And the dull pain that you live with isn't getting any duller, since that's probably the most often talked-about line of the song and certainly the most relatable. But I think my favorite lines are actually The things that you've got coming will do things that you're afraid to / There is someone waiting out there with a mouthful of surprises. Those lines paint a really stark picture of someone unwilling to tell the truth, who is going to get the truth told on them instead. I think they say a lot with a little. This whole song is like that, saying a lot in relatively few words; it packs a lot of information into a short little song. I don't know if every line is particularly insightful (like, There must be diamonds somewhere in a place that stinks this bad? Idk man, must there be?) but they do tell you a lot about the main character's mental state, or possibly the narrator's mentality and way of evaluating the world. It's notable that the protagonist of the song is referred to as "you" here, not "I". This is a song about somebody else, and the narrator's perspective really colors their perception of this unnamed "you" character. The relationship between the two characters is an important thing to consider when doing a close reading of this song, because I don't think the narrator is meant to be objective or omniscient here. It's a song about somebody's opinion of someone else they know well, ultimately, and I find that intriguing.

Problems Elrond was expecting in Aman:

Trying to make a new home after leaving Rivendell behind

Dealing with Valinorean elves who are very weird about him being part human and part Maia

Avoiding being crowned again (this one isn't just a Valinor problem)

Trying to stop Bilbo from causing problems

Trying to stop Galadriel from causing problems

People attempting to drag him into the clusterfuck that is Valinorean politics

Having to grow a bunch of his herbs himself because the plants aren't native to Valinor

Problems Elrond was not expecting in Aman:

A sudden abundance of doting parents, grandparents, and other ancestors

(He's gotten very used to being the person who takes care of everyone else)

(Look it's not his fault he's forgotten how to react to parental affection normally)

(It's been a really long time...)

#silmarillion #silm headcanons #valinor #elrond #elrond peredhel #look he's had a rough time in Middle Earth #none of Elrond's grandparents/other ancestors were around by the time he was born #He'd lost two sets of parents by young adulthood #The weight of the world on his shoulders for thousands of years #let him have lots of family in Valinor #as a treat #he deserves so much

Prompt 88

  In a world where every human starts with blood that’s a very bright red, only darkening by one taking another’s life, Tim is very careful. Apparently even using explosions in warehouses and wherever else the league of assassins had set up counted as killing, to his slight horror. He couldn’t let his team know of course, even if they joked about joining him if he turned villain. 

  It was one thing to joke, but if they saw his blood, pitch black and dark enough to nearly swallow the light around it? He really doesn’t want to see the horror or disgust. He isn’t going to let anyone know if he can help it. 

  So it’s a really shitty situation when one of the henchmen of one of the rogues decides to break his nose and about fifty-something people are suddenly very aware of his very high kill count. He has a choice here. And he isn’t entirely sure if he wants to deal with the consequences of either of them. 

#prompts #batman au #dc #dcu #batman #red robin #tim drake #Tim has a kill count in the thousands and really does Not want other people to know #Less because he's sorry and more because the *scandal* that it would bring #He doesn't want to be a problem to the Waynes :( #If/When the batfam find out they are Concerned #Someone bundle this child up in a blanket #Kon does not know the issue is while the rest of the Young Justice team are gaping #Wtf did you *do* Robin?! What happened that caused that?! #young justice

Man, I want shapeshifter cap SO BAD.

I want to see a Billy that really leans into the wonder of the world, the million paths a child could take in their life.

I want to see a Billy that wants to try everything, at least once.

A Billy that looks at all the people who spit at him, deride him, pity him, dismiss him, ignore him, because he has no future, no prospects, a child in the gutter and say no. I'm going to grow up to be whoever I want to be.

And a captain marvel that says you're going to be amazing.

Billy taking the premise of captain marvels form - his ideal self, a blank slate for Billy to paint his bright colours, the person he wants to be deep inside - and dialling that freedom up to eleven.

A dancer, a dinosaur, a train conductor, a tiger, an ice cream maker, a butterfly, an astronaut, a shark, a college student, a Tamaranean, a mouse, a scuba diver, an elephant, a doctor, a moose, a race car driver, a dog.

A child wanting to see the world.

If you want to find captain marvel, well first you've got to try his comm, probably a couple times.

Then you've got to go to fawcett, hope he's there and not saving the yetis from a salamander invasion in a different dimension.

You've got to ask around, because it often goes by word of mouth here, no matter what technology you bring. Don't worry, it'll spread very quickly, but if you're in a hurry you can find his commemorative statue and leave an offering. No one knows if it really works, but it's a good way to pass the time and feel productive.

Soon, a face will peel out of the crowd. It's always familiar, but it's never the same one.

Wait for the flash of lightning in a cloudless sky.

And then you will find captain marvel.

#dc comics #captain marvel #dc captain marvel #billy batson #I really want to see tawny introducing Billy to the wonders of a highly malleable form #He's a kid! He's dreaming and imagining! He's got a thousand lives ahead of him! #Also just the image of the jl hunting down cap for smth and coming to a dance studio #And seeing this person who does not have caps body but is indubitably cap look up in surprise #Like he's a young man just out of teenage hood with a slim and lithe dancers build. Red male leotard with the lightning bolt on #Billy at this point is like 11 but as long as they never connect his human form to all these other immortal ones he's not too bothered #Billy getting into many places with the power of free trials/scholarships/sheer 'look like you belong there' energy #I think he'd have fun being a train conductor #Bringing his friends and trusted people with him sometimes for cover stories (like uncle dudley) #Heck I think he brought Shazam along on a couple adventures in the earliest comics lmao #But tawny is there 40% of the time being the adult (tiger) supervision #Not that he really needs to be. Billy is responsible and mature! Just... A trouble magnet lol #But someone has to show this kid the tricks of the shape-shifting trade! #shazam

Kingsley is in the front on the left, right leg sticking forward and right hand sticking up while their left is sticking forward; Cole is behind them, in a similar pose but with right leg folded in and both hands in a "z" shape in front; Clementine is in the same pose as Cole; and Perrine is also in a similar fashion with their right hand raised up while their left is held palm facing forwards. The background is tan, while the lineart ranges from dark orange to brown from the top to the bottom. END ID ]

have elijah haters ever stopped to consider that he’s a single mom who works two jobs? who loves her kids and never stops?

#the originals #elijah mikaelson #like yeah sometimes he can be a bit unfair with his siblings #but that’s bc he’s took on the role of surrogate father at a very young age and has put on himself to make tough decisions #he judges them harshly bc he wants them ALL to be better #and yeah sometimes he’s being a hypocrite but yknow what? #deep down he’s aware of that and he fucking hates himself #he’s a mess!! #let him be messy!! #you try to raise the first ever vampires for a thousand years!! #you’d probably fail at it too

#young actress and actors are cornering the guzhuang market #that's why the industry is becoming more and more competitive #when it comes to guzhuang idol dramas/guouju古偶剧 with fantasy elements(like xianxia dramas) #cnetizens are bored with the same old faces #media has found that young actress and actors (20-27 years old) especially new pretty faces are more appealing to viewers #cnetizens can actually be mean to actress and actors (over 33 years old) cast as lead characters in guzhuang idol dramas #reasons is that lead characters are usually portrayed as teenagers or really young people #and the audience find it very weird to have middle-aged people cast such characters #especially scripts are usually adapted based on fictions #so fans of the novels would be furious about such casting #besides cnetizens want to see normal aging faces #but these shows always use excessive filters and PS #causing the midle-aged faces to be fake and weird #i once saw really mean comments on douyin for xianxia dramas casting middle-aged actress getting over one hundred thousand likes #actress and actors in zhengju正剧 guzhuang dramas or luodi落地 guzhuang dramas are not affected by this #like telling a realistic down-to-earth story or story inspired by real history or related to folks #and there is no fantasy or xianxia elements #china #fashion #chinese fashion #guzhuang #cdramas

independent of what happens with trump's criminal trial, i do not see how biden wins after this, especially if he leans into republican demands to use force against students. save for the Squad, there are precious few statements of democratic support for their key demographic. you notice quite the opposite: the spreading of malicious lies and republican bait incites attacks on students, faculty, and hundreds of other protesters, as protests have spread from core groups to much larger segments of the student body
