MTMTE #21:  The Sound of Breaking Glass, a prose story- James Did, in Fact, Put That Baby in That Robot

It’s after the fight with Tyrest and his goons, but before Cyclonus stabs Tailgate with a sword for medical purposes. The portal has stopped working, Skids isn’t making any sense, and Rodimus is about to do one of the scariest things you can do as an adult person.

He’s going to make several business-related phone calls.

Perceptor trying to be funny is the oddest take I’ve seen in a bit. I was completely unaware that he had a sense of humor.

Rodimus is looking pretty rough from that nonsense he pulled in the space-crucifix, but he doesn’t want to bother Ratchet, since Tailgate’s still looking like he’s gonna bite it at this point. Besides he’s still got work to do- he fully intends on getting the space bridge back in working order.

The bridge, unfortunately, isn’t making it easy for him; thing’s falling apart and bursting into flames at random intervals.

Rodimus wants to make the last few days at least somewhat worthwhile, a sentiment that Minimus catches onto, and doesn’t seem to agree with. What would it mean, if they were able to say “well, Tailgate, half a religious order, and the concept of trust in the law are dead, but at least we got to finish off our road trip in record time!”? Food for thought, Minimus, I’ll give you that.

Brainstorm runs through the room like a maniac, over the metaphorical moon about something, as he interrupts the conversation. Once he’s gone, Minimus asks about his outer shell, I guess because he feels naked without it. As he collects his belongings, Rodimus brings up their earlier conversation, and reaffirms that he wants to make up for what’s happened. Minimus acknowledges his words, but doesn’t really offer anything in return.

Back over on the Lost Light, we get subjected to a title drop.

Rung is meeting Fort Max in the hollowed-out remains of Swerve’s, because his office is full of corpses. This is a sort-of continuation of their conversation in the brig, where Rung forgave Fort Max for being a big part of why he got shot. They have a brief discussion about where Max’s head is at, and whether or not he’s ready to get back into the workforce after the nightmare hellscape that was Garrus-9. Rung seems to think that the fact that Fort Max is considering his mental health in the first place is a good sign, and offers his services should he be needed.

Too bad they’re going to have to tele-con, since Fort Max is being sent off the ship for his new job.

Over at Rodimus’ office, Rodimus considers hiring Atomizer to redecorate his pad- even though they seem to have very similar tastes when it comes to paintjobs- because he just isn’t feeling the sick flames and hot pink interior anymore.

I see Rodimus is taking the “no fun allowed” route to personal growth. Wonder how long that’ll last.

He has a think about the last conversation he had with Drift before he threw him off the ship, the memory laced with “Overlord murdered a lot of people because of me” guilt. Drift hadn’t been thrilled about the prospect of Rodimus’ inquiry, and made that much known, then volunteered to be the scapegoat. Rodimus hated this idea, horrified by the idea of letting Drift take the fall for him, after all the work he’d put in to try and be liked by people after the whole “Deadlock” thing.

Then Drift revealed that he’s got another reason for not letting Rodimus get kicked off the ship.

Back at Swerve’s, the man himself has made an appearance, interrupting the meeting between Rung and Fort Max, and proceeding to make a fool of himself by way of slapstick. It’s okay though, because he’s too high on actually feeling good about himself for once in his miserable life to feel physical pain.

Rodimus more or less insinuated this exact idea back in issue #17, and it made him so upset he was about to close his bar completely down over it. Good to see our robot Pagliacci bouncing back so nicely.

Brainstorm enters the scene like a vengeful spirit, and I guess Rung and Fort Max just disappear into the aether as he has a little chat with Swerve. Turns out that someone went and took a peek inside the super-secret, possibly-sun-destroying briefcase Brainstorm keeps on his person at all times, and he wants to know who. It was probably a little easier to swing than usual, given that Brainstorm had given up the springs on the clasps of the thing to help break everyone out of moon jail, and he probably had to take at least a little time to recover from his soul halfway evaporating out of his eyes.

Swerve makes a joke, because he has a lot of trouble handling serious situations, then we get confirmation that Brainstorm kidnapped a fucking zygote from the moon.

Brainstorm has a baby inside him.

James, I’m begging you, we can’t keep doing this.

Later, Ratchet’s checking on Tailgate after his stabbing/stabbing repair/cybercrosis cure injection.

Swerve what the FUCK do you think you’re doing with that medical biowaste?

Minimus comes in, looking very silly, as he’s having a heck of a time putting the Magnus Armor back on.

Minimus would like some help getting dressed, and, because clothes for space robots seem to skew more towards body parts than anything else, he’s come to the best doctor on the Lost Light.

(Nobody tell First Aid I said that. I fear his wrath.)

Ratchet is surprisingly handy with the Armor, and it’s revealed that he’s known about Ultra Magnus actually being a completely different, much smaller guy, since the very start.

As in, when Tyrest first started pulling this nonsense.

He didn’t say anything to anyone because he didn’t see the point, then lets Minimus know that he’s his favorite, which gives him a much-needed ego-boost. Minimus wanders off to go put the rest of his clothes on, leaving Ratchet to pull a body out of the morgue that isn’t dead.

Later, on Luna 1, we get to see Rodimus get bummed out about the baby moon not flaring back up. It’s not for lack of trying- he’s crawling around on the ground, rubbing his face in the dirt, all while Getaway watches- but it doesn’t seem like the babies are coming back. Getaway thinks it’s weird that it just kinda turned off, but then again this wasn’t exactly a typical situation, now was it? He tries igniting the Hot Spot himself, planting the first seed of his primus apotheosis diagnosis years from now, then asks our dear captain what’s next on the agenda.

Rodimus, saddened by the loss of literally a billion lives, shakes out his pocket onto the ground.

Don’t worry, the Matrix was in there, so it was totally respectful of the dead. Fort Max rides up, playfully threatening to arrest Rodimus for littering, and we finally get to know what his new career path is.

Duly Appointed Enforcer of the Tyrest Accord.

Also, he brought a friend.

Red Alert, jumping right back into his work, has decided to stay with Fort Max on Luna 1, to chase bad guys and help the Circle of Light recover/prepare for attack. Then he tells Rodimus to turn his phone back on, because Perceptor’s been trying to call him for a while now.

Back at Tyrest’s sweet digs, Perceptor’s gotten the communications system working, and is ready to call Cybertron. Cybertron, who probably thinks they all died back in issue #1, despite Blaster’s best efforts in issue #13 and #15. Blaster did not help with this project, probably because he was busy getting his tiddy compartment fixed.

Perceptor dials, everyone wonders what Bumblebee’s been up to, they get their hopes up, and we get one hell of a reveal for anyone who hasn’t been following along with the sister series up to this point.

Ah, that’s right, I’ve got to do a lightning round for RID, don’t I?

In the Postscript of this prose story, we meet Outrigger, a member of the Circle of Light who will be established as a big honkin’ dork the more we learn about him. He’s just run into Red Alert’s office to tell him about Tyrest having moved. This is a very odd occurrence indeed, as Tyrest was shot in the spine, and should not be able to move. 

The two of them head over to where Tyrest is being held, only to find he’s disappeared from a locked room.

Well, shit.

cheerfullynihilistic said: THE SNYDER CUT

Anonymous said: You don’t seem to think Superman’s public rep will take another beating from the Snyder Cut coming out. Honestly I thought you’d be way more upset than you seemed on Twitter.

Anonymous said: So uhh, against all thoughts and logic the Snyder cut is being released? Maybe as a mini series? Thoughts?

Anonymous said: SNYDER CUT!

Bullies. Jocks. Guys angrily asking if we know who their father is. Assorted dudebro nerd-oppressors of America:

You have failed us. You have failed us so hard. What else do we even keep you around for if not to head this shit off at the pass? Shame on you.

Okay, so seriously: I’m actually gonna put most bitching and moaning under a cut, because I know firsthand there are as many as several non-slavering maniacs out there who dug Man of Steel and Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice and who are simply and entirely reasonably excited that they’re getting this movie after all. I don’t feel like throwing a wall of text at them shitting all over this, so I’ll lead off with I think some fairly even-handed commentary on the real-world circumstances here, rambling speculation regarding the production, and some cautious optimism about the actual movie/s. THEN I’ll get to what I imagine most of you are here to see.

So totally in a vacuum: this is a cool, good thing. I’m the notorious theatrical Justice League-liker, but at best it was a compromised product due to the original creator - who like it or not clearly had an incredibly ambitious personal vision for these characters and their world - suffering a horrific tragedy forcing him off the project, and leaving his final stamp on blockbuster culture and a world he’d devoted years of his life to a flop with his name on it when he couldn’t even truly call it his own anymore. At worst, said tragedy was taken advantage of by suits to ditch him in the home stretch so as to try and shove out something ostensibly more marketable. But now because of a...very loyal fanbase, the man’s getting the opportunity and resources to rise like a phoenix and see at least some of his vision through in a huge way. That’s pretty remarkable.

Not in a vacuum this is fucking horrifying. I’ve already seen folks poo-poohing the reflexive fears that this will ‘set a precedent’, and they were right enough that I deleted my initial tweet on the subject because I didn’t think I could express my own opinion with any nuance in the space of 280 characters. Yeah, nerd whining definitely shaped Rise of Skywalker (another movie I enjoyed in spite of the circumstances of its creation). Hell, Sonic the Hedgehog crunched its CGI team prior to unceremoniously firing them to redesign his model thanks to outcry. That’s already a market force, and just to be clear upfront, if we can’t agree the predominant mode of operation for #ReleaseTheSnyderCut has been a toxic nerd harassment campaign when they spammed posts memorializing deceased actors and chased Diane Nelson off Twitter, we’re not gonna be able to have this conversation. And director’s cuts are you may have noticed also already a thing. But this isn’t changing direction on a project that’s already going to exist no matter what, this is turning back 3 years later on a commercial flop and dumping tens of millions of dollars into it, explicitly in response to that harassment campaign. It’s not *actually* going back and, say, remaking The Last Jedi, but by god to the naked eye it’s gonna be as good as for plenty of fanboys, and probably to some shortsighted execs as well. This is a new thing, and in this context it is a very, very bad one. Hopefully one that won’t amount to anything.

As for the movie itself: what the hell is this thing going to end up being? I assume with this sort of cashola being pumped into it we’re not getting any slapdash greenscreen or storyboarded sequences, but four hours? Is it really just going to be an expanded and revised version of what we saw in theaters, or is this including content that would have been in the originally planned Justice Leagues 2 and 3? My understanding is that those were already compressed into a single Justice League 2 before plans collapsed altogether, were they maybe filming side-by-side and this’ll be the whole shebang? If not is Snyder going to hedge his bets and end this on a clean note, or keep it ending on a cliffhanger in hopes HBO will throw another $250 million his way to keep going? Does DC want to keep going? Would they give into fan pressure on releasing after all what was widely publicized as the first film of a duology or trilogy with dangling threads if they weren’t going to be at least watching the numbers to see the feasibility of returning to this in a bigger way? Not that I think WB execs would piss into Snyder’s mouth if he were dying of thirst at this point if he simply asked to be able to do Justice League 2, but if he floated that if they instead just give him a liiiiiiiitle more money he can finally deliver unto them their very own Avengers - one that they can work on even during quarantine since it’s mostly just VFX work left - and hey if it works out he’s got a sequel or two cued up and ready to go? Maybe they look at their scattered plans and say the hell with it and end up giving this a theatrical release and sequel with Snyder holding the reigns again if this ends up a killer app; stranger things have happened, if not many, and somehow this is already happening in the first place after all. Alternatively, if this succeeds, could they go “thanks and good on ya, totally do another, but it’s gonna be an HBO exclusive so you’re only getting a hundred million, figure it out”? Would Ben Affleck return? How much reshooting will he be willing to commit to even for this? And most importantly, since this is potentially going to be serialized as six ‘episodes’, will We Got This Covered count this as another ‘win’ since their bullshit rumor mill algorithm spit out “Justice League HBO TV show” recently?

As for the project itself: I ain’t subscribing to HBOMax for this bad boy, but once it becomes more widely available I can’t claim I won’t probably watch it. It’s basically a new movie about the Justice League, and if there’s anything I WOULD wanna see Zack Snyder do in the DCU, it’s the movie finally moving past pseudo-realism (aside from some of those dopey costumes) and leaning all the way into godlike superbeings bludgeoning each other through continents. I absolutely wanna see his aesthetic take on the Green Lantern Corps, and New Genesis, and time travel, and all the other weird promises of where his movies were going to go climaxing in a ridiculous super-war across all spacetime. It’s the same reason J.G. Jones was an exciting choice for Final Crisis before he had to leave, seeing a guy known for his work in an ultra-real grungy superhero style starting there and building up to seeing his version of absolutely wild cosmic spectacle. And no, to respond to one of the initial asks, I’m not worried about the impact on Superman. Everyone seems to have accepted this is its own distinct thing whether they like it or not, I think him getting to complete his ‘arc’ will quiet down many of the folks who like to yell at every other version as retro nonsense since now they’ll be able to be smug about having had the best take rather than pining for a lost finale, and I’m not interested in further Superman movies at the moment anyway with Superman & Lois in the pipe (which I was originally paranoid would be endangered by this when rumors first started floating, but if it’s been brewing since November then if they wanted to strike that down to ‘make room’ according to their Byzantine ever-shifting rules, they would have by now). Far as I’m concerned, as long as the other DC movies get to keep doing what they’re doing during and past this - even Pattinson in his corner, however that works - then totally let Snyder work out all his Wagnerian superhero bullshit for another flick or two. If nothing else, maybe we’ll learn what the hell that diagram up there is supposed to mean. And a plea I want to clarify upfront is wholeheartedly sincere: we’re already down the rabbit hole, so let Snyder to literally whatever he wants with his non-theatrically released Justice League. Zero input or veto power from outside parties. If he wants Flash to hang dong or Superman to say fuck or Batman to learn he’s Steppenwolf’s secret dad or Cyborg to learn he needs to eat babies to fuel his machine parts, let him go for it. Whole point is this is now his thing for people who want his thing.

Okay, beneath the cut the filter comes off, so go ahead if that’s your jam.

Hahahahahahaha this is gonna be such a fuckin’ shitshow you guys, Jesus Christ.

They’re giving the dude who did BvS and wants to make an Ayn Rand adaptation someday $30 million to take another crack at this monstrosity! 30 goddamn million smackaroos for four fucking hours of by many accounts roughly the same basic movie, except now presumably with what little coherency, fun, and clean character work the theatrical cut managed to pull off excised in return for weighty staring, ponderous pseudo-philosophical musings, hackneyed symbolism, aimless mythology teasing, and Steppenwolf I understand being decapitated by Wonder Woman at the end rather than taken back to Apokolips. I didn’t even spoiler mark that shit because don’t you dare pretend you care about the fate of Steppenwolf. I won’t have it.

I used to wonder if I was indeed missing the forest for the trees with these movies, that I was so inflexible in my personal image of these characters - even though I appreciate plenty of alternate takes on them and even some stories that bend or break what I consider their ‘rules’, just not these - that I was incapable of grasping or appreciating these films on their own merits as works of art using those archetypes in wildly different ways; even I could see there were good moments and interesting ideas on display despite seemingly failing to come together. No matter how much I personally deconstructed how and why it wasn’t working, I couldn’t do it to my own satisfaction to the point of stamping out that niggling little worry with how many folks whose opinions I respect love ‘em. Until I finally remembered that the Cadmus arc of Justice League Unlimited is totally the same basic story as BvS, centrally driven by an even worse take on Superman, and that’s still one of the best superhero stories of all time. These just stink by any merits, and while I think Justice League absolutely has the potential to be the most *entertaining* of the bunch, it’s not going to magically become *good* in the eleventh hour. Not to lift up Joss Whedon of all people as some kind of savior, I’m on the record that my love for Justice League as-is is some kind of inexplicable alchemical accident, but I promise that there is not going to be one single addition to this movie that’s going to make up for the removal of “Just save one person”.

Also I’m already not looking forward to dudes tweeting “whoa, he’s splitting it up into a serialized narrative, reflective of the sequential nature of the characters’ primitive native pictorial medium! Or mayhap in ode to the pulp film adventure serials which inspired those in turn! Even the Justice League children’s cartoon for dumb babies, which was itself...made up of episodes! That’s three references in the structure of the thing alone! The man’s operating on an entirely different level!” “God, isn’t it amazing how much better he understands the source material than you”, they shall say, about a man who I understand just very confidently referred to Doomsday in his livestream as having destroyed Krypton in the comics. Again, don’t you say they won’t, just the other day I saw folks tweeting they just realized that since Jor-El wears armor over his bodysuit that technically means Superman’s whole costume is underwear which means Snyder’s totally honoring that without putting him in ugly dumb red panties so checkmate, dorks.

(Okay, in fairness, I know Snyder was saying that’s his take on what happened to the moon in the past of the movies and maybe I only misheard that he thought that also happened in the comics, and it’s trivial information anyway. Still sucks though, that seeming out-of-nowhere Jax-Ur shoutout was like the one thing I liked about that otherwise interminable Krypton sequence. And why is there a second Doomsday? You did Death of Superman already!)

And further SPOILER thoughts below on the reported plots of 2 and 3:

It’s also an amazing, perfect sort of narrative synchronicity that the hypocrisy of Man of Steel in presenting Superman as a savior would (will?) be matched by the movies also rejecting that promise long-term. In there, Jor-El’s musings on the capacity of every living thing being capable of good, the closest the film has to a singular moral statement, are proven wrong when Zod has to be put down like a mad dog, and rather than the one who’ll bring us into the sun, Kal-El’s presence draws ruin from beyond the stars to our world. And again in BvS with Doomsday. And again in Justice League 1-3, where in spite of claims by Snydercutters that it’s okay for Superman to be a really lousy take on Superman because it’s totally supposed to take several movies after putting on the costume and calling himself Superman, including his own death and resurrection, for him to really, like, become Superman, man, he remains a liability to the end. His death lures in Steppenwolf, the Kryponian matrix in his genes is Darkseid’s goal, he becomes the villain of the first act of Justice League 3 - possibly of his own free will depending on which version you’ve heard about - and at the final showdown, it’s Batman who sacrifices himself to stop Darkseid and save the world and inspire the rise of superheroism, because Batman, you see, rules, whereas Superman, stay with me here, drools. A letdown given BvS was just about the one major story of the last 30 years to unambiguously conclude Superman is better than Batman, but not a shocker. None of what I understand goes down in these - iconography from the likes of Fourth World, Crisis on Infinite Earths, Death and Return of Superman, Rock of Ages, Final Crisis, and Injustice reused but stripped of all context and thematic weight that gives it meaning (even Injustice is built on the premise of having a ‘good’ Superman to contrast the dictator); Lois being the ‘key’ because of her connections to two men, one she married and one she bears; time travel that even by the very generous suspension of disbelief applied to it in a genre like this operates by two obviously completely different sets of rules in its only two uses, and is then used to write the entire second movie of the trilogy out of continuity in the first act of the third, making one and a half of these movies pointless - is shocking. It’s just more empty notions and unfulfilled promises offered up to a fanbase staking everything on the idea that all the tampering, all the wild swings, all the meandering, it’s all building UP to something, not possibly just a dude who doesn’t understand these characters but wanting to look very clever with them before building up to one more rad punch-up. So yes, make these movies. Let what can be gleaned from them as worthwhile be revealed, leave the rest of it up for examination to be judged as it deserves and let it, finally. Finally. Be done.

Fanfic roundup, 2019!

In summary, WOW this was a busy fanfic writing year for me. According to AO3, I published 439,972 words this year (whaaaaaat). About 20k of that is from a years-crossing WIP, so the full word count isn’t accurate, but I feel like after I passed 300k mark, the 20,000 words stopped mattering as much (and I still don’t know how this happened).

Proposing Is A Great First Date (2191 words) James Potter/Sirius Black: On the one hand, it seemed like a mistake to propose to Sirius when they weren't even dating.

I'm interested in those kid/cartoon and anime witch shows you mentioned. (unless it's actually W.I.T.C.H which I've watched a thousand times)

It wasn’t gonna be W.I.T.C.H at all! I actually don’t recall that one, lol.

I am basically gonna stick to anime for this list, jsyk, it got way too long… There are a few specifically about witches, while some are just about magic in general. (It’s a sparse genre man.) These are ones I have personally watched, were recommended to watch, or have at the very least heard of.

FALL OUT BOY - YOUNG AND MENACE [3.38] The latter, not the former.

Katherine St Asaph: "Are you sure about this chipmunked Imagine Dragons thing?" "Let's just do it and be legends, man." [4]

Claire Biddles: I love Fall Out Boy more than some members of my family, and, with the same forgiving loyalty that I would extend to a beloved blood relation, I'm willing to see the goodness in pretty much anything they do. I loved their much-maligned 2015 record American Beauty/American Psycho, choosing to see its over-production as ambitious rather than overblown. I couldn't even say the subsequent (terribly-titled!) remix album Make America Psycho Again was that bad; just really, really unnecessary. They tried! So, in the spirit of compassion and understanding, what is good about "Young and Menace"? A bunch of stuff: The intro suggests a reassessment of past decadence, both musically and lyrically. Patrick Stump's vocals are as delicious as they've ever been. That "Oops!... I Did It Again" reference (though only my second favourite of recent times) is perfectly executed... but it just all builds up to a big nothing. This is a group who can write a fucking chorus, and when they don't, they can make a repeated hook feel anthemic like nobody else. The lack of something to grasp on to is what makes "Young and Menace" so disappointing. Isn't the whole point of this brand of emo to have something to shout about at the top of your lungs? The migraine-inducing nonsense that sits in the black hole where the chorus should be is really hard to forgive. I want to love it, I really really do, but I can't even physically listen to a large portion of it -- not to sound like an Auntie but it's just noise. Here's hoping the second single's a massive banger. [4]

Iain Mew: My favourite moment in 2017 pop so far is Sơn Tùng visually and audibly bending time and space in the electronic cacophony at the end of "Lạc Trôi," the most elegant successor to dubstep wubs. I wasn't expecting a well-known Western group to make a single centred on a harsher version of a similar approach, but Fall Out Boy are a band unafraid of throwing all sorts in. It's never worked so well for me as this before, though -- not only are the drops full-on joy in excess, but they turn the build and release around it into a delightful tease, ultra-seriousness flirting with silliness in the way of all the best songs of their contemporaries. [9]

Joshua Copperman: Switched on Pop has been mentioned on the Singles Jukebox before, but their episode on this song is well worth a listen. They call the... thing that happens about a minute in the logical extreme of the 'pop-drop,' and at least on a thematic level, it gives the song a decent amount of context. In Switched on Pop's view, "Young and Menace" is supposed to be something of a musical shitpost, parodying the chopped vocals and intense breakdowns of other EDM songs by first subverting the huge chorus Fall Out Boy is known for, then by making the drop section go for much longer than it needs to. Hell, even the quiet-loud dynamics are pushed to the extreme self-consciously when Patrick screams the titular line, to the point where I had to fiddle with the volume while listening. Even though it's sort of brilliant from the shitpost angle, "Young and Menace" nonetheless makes for a puzzling, incredibly uncomfortable listen. They know what they're going for, and they reach it, regardless of whether or not anyone wants to listen. [5]

Maxwell Cavaseno: I resent some of y'all for continuing to encourage Patrick Stump because at this point it's clear he's one of the most delusional maniacs in pop music. A man who refuses to learn how to properly sing, STILL constantly mistaking shrieking for passion, as initially proven by that gargantuanly vacuous Soul Punk dalliance. What was once arguably a decent pop rock band is now like the karmic opposite of Thom Yorke holding his band hostage on Kid A. Here we do not have a challenge to support someone's neurotic phobias but instead the continued enabling of a brat's tantrums. The lyrics of this band have become appalling, the use of FUCKING DUBSTEP BREAKS in 2017 would be laughed out the door by anyone else, and yet again their po-faced po-mo gestures of pop-worship read more and more of a band who are aware of how utterly unable they are of getting anyone excited. Fall Out Boy aren't there, they're just using the name because nobody gives a shit about Patrick and so many people in music are too afraid to commit themselves to something new. It's an exercise in cowardice and mental hermitage. [2]

Edward Okulicz: The drop smeared all over this, blanking out all art, all melody, all cleverness, all that is good about Fall Out Boy is an artistic choice, much like a painter vomiting all over a canvass and selling it anyway. I'm not giving partial credit for past masterpieces; this is plain awful. [2]

Thomas Inskeep: Rock band takes hard left turn and embraces vocoders, electronic textures and dubstep drops: Maroon 5? Linkin Park? No, this time it's FOB, but really, it doesn't matter who it is, because it's all the same shit. [0]

Katie Gill: Fall Out Boy's sound is all over the goddamn place. Their loud, obnoxious pop-rock stylings have settled into something that's a bit closer to an Imagine Dragons alternative. Their lyrics are also over the goddamn place. The cocky pretension that infiltrates all of their lyrics comes off as downright annoying here: nothing can save the pretentious smugness of "I think God is gonna have to kill me twice." Finally, that drop is all over the goddamn place. I don't know who decided that the thing this song needed was a drop that uses every single vocal manipulation section in Garageband, but can we please fire them? [1]

Deadpool vs Joker part one

Gotham city is a dark and very gothic seeming place filled with crime and villains. A place where “ Hi there! It’s me dead pool. Your probably wondering why I’m in Gotham. You see, I stumbled across some magic while in Dr. Strange’s abode and was tinkering with it and wound up traveling from my beloved universe to this one where the live action movies are terrible and the video games and and animated movies are great.” “ Ok Mr. Wilson who are you talking to?” a Gotham city detecive asked. “No one you would understand my rotund civil servant.” “All you super hero and villain types are all crazy I’m writting on your chart that I recommend you be sent to arkham asap.” A knock came at the door of the dimly lit interogating room. A man poked his head in. He was white haired very tired looking with a mustache as white as his hair and hadnt shaved the rest of his face in a few days. “Sergeant I’ll take over from here.” The larger detective seemed flustered as he walked out. The older man walked in he was taller and well built. “My name is James Gordon I’m the comissioner of the GCPD. Would you mind telling me how you came to Gotham?” “ It all started when me and my dog toto were living in this bronze colored world with my aunt and uncle. And I was a hopeful young girl who had issues with a mean old lady who hated me and my dog. One day she tried to take my dog and a horrible tornado came through and picked up our house my dog, the mean old lady and me and…” He dropped his fist onto the metal table showing he had reached his limit. “Why don’t we cut the crap alright. I don’t know how you got here but either way you solicited your mercenary skills to the falcones and succesfully killed Boss Maroni. Now I’m willing to look the other way on both these facts if you are willing to cooperate with my offer. We have a masked vigilante in Gotham known as the Batman. He’s disappeared as of late and we suspect it’s because he’s hurt. But that’s not the main problem right around the time you showed up in Gotham a high profile criminal escaped from Arkham asylum. He is highly unstable with multiple personality dissorder so much even that with some of his personalities not only does his personality change but so does his appearance. He calls himself the joker. Now here’s where you come in. From the short period of time that I’ve known you you’re the only person who is as crazy or crazier than him. ” “I’ll do it not cuz of what you have on me but because if he is as crazy as you say he is it’ll be loads of fun trying to get this Joker guy. Now one question do I need to bring him in alive?“  Commissioner Gordon sat thinking for a moment. ” At this time I don’t care what you do or how you do it. This man’s a menace and has hurt countless people.“ Another knock came at the door "Who is it?” Asked commisioner Gordon. A well dressed man in his mid 30’s being pushed in a wheel chair  by an older gentleman who was in a very fine suit with gray hair and also had a tired look about him but not as tired as the commissioner. The older gentleman’s demeanor suggests a military background. “Sorry James I hope I’m not interrupting something too important.”“ Your fine Bruce I’m almost finished with this. Why don’t you and Alfred wait in the hall and we can catch up in a minute. Actually why are you in wheel chair?” Bruce chuckles “I had a bad skiing accident over in Europe I’ll be in this for the next couple of months.” “Ahem! Yeah hey! Hi. Dead Pool over here remember main character and such?” “Hmmm? Oh yeah Bruce this guy calls himself Dead Pool he was the mercenary that killed Maroni.” Bruce’s facial expressions tried to convey surprise like he had no idea what was going on but Dead Pool could tell other wise. “ Really ? Being out of the country I hadn’t heard much about it. I did hear that the Joker escaped. There was a story about it on the radio while we were on our way over here.” Gordon looks the direction of Dead Pool. “I think we have that situation well under control.” “I see the use of a masked vigilante can prove to be useful” “Okay my silence limiter had just run out you know your talking to Batman right? I mean cmon I bet this guy hasnt been on vacation since he was like fifteen. I bet some bad guy broke his back or something. Was it that super muscle freak who’s missing? Yeah I read the papers I know what” “shut up will yah!!!!” Shouted Gordon. He looks back at Bruce and Alfred. “ Sorry this guy is crazy but I think it will help take down the Joker. And with the Batman missing the extra help finding the Joker can’t hurt right?"  Sitting there thoughtfully Bruce replied "Hmmm no I wouldn’t think it could hurt but is the goal to catch the joker and send him back to Arkham?” “Ha! Catch yeah that’s what I do pointy ears.” “Enough! I’m sick of your mouth one more word out of you and I’ll send you to Arkham. Geez your on crazy son of a.” “Um Jim I’m sure you have evertrying well at hand but if there’s anything I can do to help.” “Actually I could use some more ammunition and maybe some new guns. Oh! A driver I need a ride places can I borrow your butler?!” “Master Bruce if I may this might prove to be an ingenious idea that would provide Dead Pool with a certain inconspicuousness that could help with this mission . I’m sure that he wouldn’t put me in harms way.” “Ha! I mean yeah sure no harm will come to Alfred.”

“Welcome to the munitions wing of Wayne enterprise’s Deadpool.” said Bruce. The munitions wing had several rooms that branches off the main room but it had almost a garage type feeling to the main room it was wide open with a concrete floor. And a few long steel tables throughout.  On one of the tables was a wide array of guns. Pistols, machine guns and high powered rifles. “Oh boy! It’s just like Christmas!” exclaimed Deadpool. “I’ll just take these and some of these.” he said sweeping pistols and machine guns into a duffle bag. “It’s like Batman is my Santa Claus who knew?!” Bruce chuckled. “Come on do you really think that a billionaire in his mid thirties would run around in a suit of black spandex fighting crime. Isn’t that what the police are for?” “Aww so cute you trying to act like your not Batman. Also once this is over I would like to get home to my own universe where our movies rule the box office and our top hero is from the same planet we live on. Here is the magic ritual I used to get here but it won’t work to get me home. Any idea on how I could?” “Hmmm I’ll do some studying on this and get back with you.” Bruce said taking the information from Dead pool. “Sir! Sir!” an employee came in wearing a white Wayne enterprise coat. Presumably a scientist. “You have to come see what’s on the tv.”

“City hall has been attacked and the mayor has been taken hostage as well as several others employed by the city of Gotham.” a female news anchor on the tv said. She was dark haired and appeared to be of German decent. “ Hmmm I bet she smells nice.” said Deadpool. Everyone turned and looked his direction “What?” “Wait I’m getting information now.” The anchor waa listening to someone talking to get through her earpiece. “ The captor has a hold of a news camera and has requested….” suddenly the screen switched to a different camera. It was inside city hall, what appeared to be the mayors office it was dark. Too hard to tell what was going on but you could tell the camera wasn’t focused on anyone. “Ha ha ha ha!” the camera turned to show the joker in the mayors chair as the room got brighter. The Joker was wearing a deep purple suit with with a white shirt and green tie. His hair was slicked back and green. A face white as snow but not from makeup. Lips blood red with scarring around the mouth that looked like he was permanently smiling. But he was smiling as well. “Citizens of Gotham! Your new mayor is ready to make his initial speech.” “Dang I should’ve made some food I never watch good dramatic tv without food. Can we pause this so I can raid the vending machine? Oh I saw one of those frozen vending machines they have chimichangas! I have to have chimichangas!” Dead pool exclaimed. Again everyone turned and looked his direction. “What?” “First I an decreeing that all inmates from Arkham be released immediately. Secondly I am now hiring more city employees. If  no one applies. Well then they will be drafted. Like my new scretary.” The camera turns away from the Joker to a woman sitting on a couch. She was middle aged and had blonde hair. The most notable feature was her bizarre smile. “Joker must have used some sort of Neuro toxin on her. If can get in there and stop Joker we can get to her and whoever else and develop an antidote.” said Wayne. “If my demands aren’t met in 30 minutes. Well then I will blow up city hall with everyone in it.” The camera went through the door in the hallway showing the building lined with explosives. Joker laughed maniacally “Deadpool can you disarm those once your inside?” Bruce asked. “Yeah I would think so. Just incase though we may want there to be some sort of evacuation plan. Alfred I’d say it’s time to go.” They started to head for the door. “To the Wayne mobile.” Deadpool said in a Batman voice.

Our hero and his ride……“Shhhh lemme take over for a while said Deadpool.” “I’m sorry sir did you just shush and then refer to yourself in the third person?” Alfred questioned. “Eh kinda you wouldn’t understand it…..you know it’s a crazy thing.” “Hmmm I see well you and Joker should be well matched then.” “In a deep sounding narrator our hero contiued to tell his own story while he new found companion continued to drive the very fancy limo belonging to Batman….err I mean Bruce Wayne sorry I forget you guys don’t like to give out your "secret identities” Dead pool said notably.“ "My and I thought the Joker was strange.” “The sleek black ultra fancy limo pulled up  outside the ghastly city hall and our hero grabbed his bag of goodies to kill er I mean  to capture the evil Joker. Dead pool said in his deep narrator voice again. Switching back to normal voice now. Thanks Alfred and you know what story teller guy why don’t you take the story telling back for a bit I’m gonna be busy for a tad.”
