ABC… please give me this one thing. I swear to every deity that I will never ask for anything again.

HC/rant that maybe someone already said, but I'm procrastinating, so anyways.

You know what? Batman's build is kinda a plot hole, specially on that one comic that he is straight up a fuckin gorilla (and you could argue that gorillas are flexible, and you're right, but this is supposed to be a human).

It's impossible that he's buff as Superman.

Yeah, his training is super hard: LOTS of cardio, agility and resistance, and it does have heavy lifting here and there, yes. But almost all of his training is in various martial arts, box from Alfred, stealth, fencing and other ninja/assassin skills.

¿Have you ever seen the bodies of professionals in these sports?

The meatiest of them could be boxers, but they're more like fit than "I'm a walking house that it's about to rip this shirt just with my titties".

The only way to get this massive is by taking supplements, but that will be mostly for aesthetic, and someone as freaking paranoid as he is, will never cause muscles that beefy will only get in his way in everything all the fucking time and, contrary to popular believe, don't really give so much extra strength nor stamina.

Besides, a fit muscle body is easy to pass as "I'm a rich douch bag that really likes the gym/do sports" than a "I'm a walking fucking truck".

"¿But what about his genetics?" I'll give you that he's tall, and has good genes, but that body builder wet dream it's simply not natural.

"¿But how can Clark have that musculature then, if he barely works out?" He's not human. He's a freaking alien power up by the sun. For all we know, this is what a Kryptonian skinny nerd looks like. And we're not body shaming him.

"¿So we just say goodbye to Clark pretending to be Batman? ¿Is that what you want, you monster?" Naw, I just said that this is actually a new chance to better his cover, because Batman and Bruce Wayne don't even have the same body type ¿Who would believe such nonsense?

It's kinda stupid say is his own body, BUT, considering he is (allegedly) a normal human regularly fighting against metas and gods.

And his suit has been said to contain anti-impact technology with a bellows system and other things built in, plus the various technology he keeps in there. Could make sense that all the extra muscle is just his armor.

And Clark impersonating Batman is just using almost simple fabric against his Apollonian body and they have nearly the same silhouette.

This way, Dick taking the mantle and Bruce going as Nightwing and nobody noticing a thing is so much less weird. Because their physical appearance isn't that far off from each other.

But we have to say goodbye to Clark pretending to be Bruce, tough, sorry about that.

The love I have for this Thurvishar guy is too much to handle.

I cannot say how much i fucking love these books. I read them when I was still pretty clueless about queer things, still thinking i was “straight”, and i found many things fascinating about the worldbuilding and the characters. And now, years later, I’ll be laying in my bed trying to sleep and then suddenly I’m throwing my covers back like “YOU MEAN THAT WAS T4T????????” “Wait was that ASEXUAL REPRESENTATION OR AM I HALLUCINATING???????????”

I’d like to go back in time and hold little me’s head like “baby. You’re a faggot. There’s a reason you like this book and it ain’t just the dragons”

Oh and also! How could i forget! The third book in the series was literally the first book I ever read in English, bc it hadn’t been translated into my native language yet, and i was NOT GOING TO WAIT YEARS TO READ IT TF???? Literally i went

“Have I read a book in english before?”

“No.”

“How long is this one?”

“…640 pages.”

“……….Fuck it we ball.”

Man i gotta reread them it’s been too long.

Okay I said I'd make a more expansive post about this so here it is.

If you like high fantasy, check out A Chorus of Dragons by Jenn Lyons.

It's got

magic

dragons

demons

gods that aren't gods

a main character throuple

platonic marriage

distinct characters of various ages

just general diversity

the most incomprehensible family trees

sassy footnotes

and more!

There are five books and the worldbuilding is so neatly woven into the story so as not to overwhelm the reader. I was learning neat facts about the world even in the last book.

The overarching plot is a bit complicated to explain, but it's basically "Ancient mage with an ego has secret plans centuries in the making and must be stopped, but in the meantime there are demons wrecking havoc, terrible shitheads vying for political power, shapeshifters with dubious morals, revenge schemes, slavery, a god of annihilation that has slowly been consuming the sun, and so much family drama."

The five books are:

The Ruin of Kings (aka will someone please tell Kihrin what's going on)

The Name of All Things (aka the adventures of Janel and Qown, a horsegirl and her emotional support atheist priest)

The Memory of Souls (aka Oh My God)

The House of Always (aka Group Therapy tries to stop the apocolapyse)

The Discord of Gods (aka wtf is even going on--OH)

So in conclusion:

great characters, great pacing, great worldbuilding, great antagonists

Matt: *does stupid shit*

Foggy:

redrew a mattfoggy scene bc of the daredevil brainrot wdym born again's day after tomorrow (my friend said this looked like a meme so. made it one)

That makes you so valid actually

So I started watching Daredevil

I'm on episode 9 of season 1

and I'm loving it it's an amazing show

I love how Charlie Cox plays Matt

Also did I start watching it because of Team Red fics and because Charlie Cox is hot?

Yes. Yes I did

do any of you guys ever think abt how ´i’m afraid i’m never gonna feel normal again’ from eddie means like. he’s afraid he’s never gonna stop hurting, but what that really means is like he doesn’t know how how to cope with all the things he’s been repressing, and normal for him IS repressing those things so he’s afraid that the rest of his life is just going to be awful because he can’t even fathom a life where he isn’t repressing those things and actually copes with them healthily?

bc i do. and i also think abt the fact that for Buck, that sentiment is nearly exactly the same but also completely different. bc for buck, it means i’m afraid i’ve never been normal. i’m afraid that this is permanent and that no one else thinks like i do…

like ugh im not explaining it but Eddie thinks normal IS repression and doesn't know how to live without it, and Buck thinks he's never been normal

Peter Parker is so adoptable. “Oh you mean adaptable-“ NO.

First up we got the classic irondad/spiderson dynamic. ICONIC. Can have you punching wholes in the walls with the amount of FEELS and FLUFF and, of course, ANGST. 10/10, great way to get started. BUT. We’ve barely even scratched the surface.

My other personal favourite: Matt Murdock AKA Daredevil adopts Peter. Bonus points if it’s after No Way Home, the emotional hurt/comfort potential is IMMENSE. I just. I love that shit. I eat it up every time. GIMME!!!

Next up, one I did not think would work, but it ABSOLUTELY DOES: Bucky Barnes adopts Peter. Currently reading a fic called Anatomy In Reverse by pansley on ao3, and lemme tell ya im OBSESSED. I did not think there was potential there, BUT BOY WAS I WRONG. (Lovely fic, would 100% recommend it btw)

Oh and did you think Peters adoptableness only reached until the confinements of the MCU? THINK AGAIN. Cuz the Batfam is NOT ABOVE ADDING SPIDERS TO THE BATS AND BIRDS!! You think Batman has an adoption problem, you’ve clearly never seen the amount of fics of Nightwing adopting Peter. (I guess it runs in the family. Also, Dark Matter anyone??)

And these are just the ones I’ve come across! It’s like if you feel like writing parent-child dynamics in the mcu - or even outside of it, jesus! - you just get yourself a ready-to-adopt Peter Parker, maybe kill of some more of his parental figures i guess, and boom! You got yourself an adoptee!

I hate them

LENA BOSKO IS A LESBIAN‼️‼️

canon is irrelevant lena bosko is a lesbian

Okay but Kaz as a batman villain DO YOU SEE THE VISION??!!?!?!!

Batman VS Everyone

If Batman gets prep time, so does everyone else

I haven't actually been following interviews and promos much for 8b, but it seems that buddie shippers everywhere is convinced it's going canon.

Is this serious, or is it just the usual clownery?

And if y'all seriously think that... Why? Based on interviews, the thing that they have very demonstrably just straight up lied in, previously?

EDIT: it has come to my attention through a not-at-all helpful (and frankly, rude) anon that I am not allowed to ask this because I like Tommy as well as buddie. I apologize for asking a 100% genuine question about what has got people so convinced this time around.

As a frequent commenter, i have to say that you have absolutely NOTHING to worry about! Personally, I love getting replies to my comments as well, it doesn’t even matter when. If you reply immediately though, i won’t even see it for hours at the LEAST, but often for days, because i just dont check my email that often. If i get a comment hours, days, or even weeks later, i just light up remembering the fic i left it on, my feelings about it, plus because a love connecting with people through fics! And to be honest, the best kind if comment is when i dont get a raply for MONTHS or even YEARS before i do, because then its like looking back on a fond memory like „Oh yeah, oh my god! That’s what i was obsessed with at the time, and thats the fic i fucking loved, holy shit!“ It’s like seeing an old friend again. I honestly like it more than getting immediate replies.

So, in conclusion: don’t worry anon, we fucking love late replies <3

I love, love, love getting comments and asks on my platforms about/on my stories! The emails/notifs never fail to bring a smile to my face! But, sometimes, I'm not in the headspace to read what other people think, y'know? Like, I'm always happy to read and respond to people as soon as I can, but sometimes I'm feeling super insecure about something and it translates over into the way I read comments because my stories are still a part of me, and I don't particularly like hearing what people have to say about me when I'm not too sure how I feel about myself. It makes me feel bad whenever I leave comments or asks unanswered for hours or days at a time before I'm in the right headspace to actually read/answer them

That’s 100% a-okay!

I do the same thing! I’ve have asks in my ask box from months ago that I just haven’t had the mental space to answer- and that’s okay!

Guys, i think we just won? Was that… a win? For the queer community? Guys… guys we just won.

fuck yeah !!!!!!!!!

Trying to figure out if my social anxiety is a result of my depression or if my depression is a result of my social anxiety

I want to make a formal apology to everyone. I've previously claimed in jest that Batman and Superman have been weird about each other for 50 years. This was blatantly untrue and wild misinformation. They've actually been weird about each other for over 70 years.

started reading superbat fanfiction bcus i saw a concept edit that was beautiful but my only knowledge of dc superheros is the lego batman movie

before you write: THINK!

is it Tender?

is it Homoerotic?

is it Implicitly homosexual?

is it Noticeably repressed?

is it Kind of gay?

never ever ever gets old

I think we just vibin‘ rn. The trauma begins in march next <3

WHY IS 9-1-1 ABC TRENDING

WHAT HAPPENED

SOMEONE TELL ME PLEASE

how do you do, fellow Creatives™

sometimes you need dialogue tags and don't want to use the same four

I think Eddie feels the most comfortable and at home with his abuela because growing up, she was probably the only person in his family who allowed him to be a child while everyone else expected him to be the man of the house. She let him be her little Eddito… 🥺🙃

[gif made by the talented @housewifebuck 🤍]

Learning a language and slang at the same time is crazy bc i‘ll use a phrase and be like „is this a slang term and acceptable in casual conversation, a rare but correct phrase, or absolute bullshit that makes me look like an idiot“

thinking again about how everyone, even the rest of the characters and buck himself, fundamentally misunderstanding who Buck 1.0 was and his motivations. because yes, he was a flirt who slept around a LOT but never in any of his interactions with these women does he display fuckboy or playboy behavior. everyone has this idea that he was this man whore running around breaking women's hearts left and right because he didn't respect them and only wanted sex. and they believed this so hard that Buck believed it.

except that first scene we get with Buck stealing the firetruck to sleep w the first girl, he's the one who gets rejected when he tries to make it anything deeper. and it right out the gate tells the audience that this is someone so stupidly desperate for affection that he's looking for it in all the wrong places and actively sabotaging his career to make it happen because he doesn't know how else to find it. because no one else has ever wanted that with him.

and idk so much of the fandom has (imo) accurately clocked the sex as a form of self harm as well - a new way of using his body to get attention because his parents aren't around to care when he throws himself into oncoming traffic anymore

and I just get really in my feelings about it because no one in his life GETS it. eddie comes closest but he's missing so much key context and I just want so badly for the show to circle back to this in some way but I know they'll never do it right

He's getting dragged out, kicking and clawing at the closet!

840 frames of eddie diaz

okay but eddie's version of boston. somewhere in 8b eddie goes to stay with his parents for a week to look at houses and start really repairing things with chris and it's His Episode. there's the occasional call with buck or bobby and a little scene of hen and chim asking how he's doing when buck has to end their call at the station. but it's just an eddie deep dive.

Wtf it moved +25 SPACES?? WTF????
