its kinda funny that the chaotix are like the only characters who mention having to pay rent or buy food or whatever and theyll take any job that pays because theyre desperate for money but none of the other characters are struggling in this department at all even though most of them dont seem to have jobs. its like the concept of needing money to live exists for no one in the sonic universe EXCEPT for vector espio and charmy

“Blah blah blah Tim Drake is sleep deprived” we’ve all heard it, but this man is a highschool dropout who’s job is to sit at WE and look pretty (no he isn’t a CEO, idk where any of you took that from), making his only responsibility the Being A Vigilante bit. However, I present to you Duke Thomas and Damian Wayne are sleep deprived, bc hear me out they are the only ones who have stuff to do both at day AND night time.
Bruce is rich, he doesn’t have a real job, same goes for Tim, Jason doesn’t have any job at all, Cass doesn’t even have a birth certificate, Steph seemingly dropped out of uni, etc.
None of them do anything besides vigilantism, but Damian has school during the day and Robin at night, Duke has school at night and Signal during the day, those mfs do NOT have time to sleep.

rules of loki's conjuration magic
what can and can't he conjure up?
we know he can conjure fireworks, we see kid loki conjure up a sword, and loki summons that blanket him and sylvie cuddle under. but when it comes to conjuring the tickets for the train on lamentis, he couldn't do it.
my interpretation has always been "he can conjure stuff that he can picture" which SOUNDS pretty solid in theory- after all, a blanket and fireworks are pretty easy to imagine, and he never saw the tickets, so there's no way for him to know what they look like
but also that opens the door to the same problem that people encounter when trying to draw a duck from memory, which is that it turns out ducks are kinda hard to remember all the details of, and he would end up with a weird sort of duck creature but not quite an actual one
(although i used duck for this example just because it is the first thing that came to mind, conjuring up living things seems like it would be its own kind of power akin to wanda's children- we never see loki conjure anything living beyond duplication casting, which is its own separate thing, so i don't THINK he could conjure a duck, but just walk with my example here. you think you know what a Thing looks like until you realize you don't.)
does the ability to conjure something come from visualizing it? or using it beforehand? had he known that blanket and therefore it was easy to summon up? where is it coming from? are the fireworks actually an illusion but the blanket and sword were Very Real?
is there a consensus or is this another topic of highly academic debate in the loki world?

love this part of my life where the things that are difficult but challenging and good for me are things i can stop and skip and halfass, but the things that are difficult and painful and pointless are the things i have to live with no matter what
#school and home life are too much to handle so i skip school#because i cant kick my parents out#and appartments cost money#and i dont have a car to sleep in#i could maybe try to dig up my old childhood tent but that brings a whole host of logistic questions + im scared and it's difficult#anyway. it's fine. it's cool. i just have to hold on until i graduate high shcool and then ?????#find a way to live without my parents money OR scholarships#all for some nebulous end goal of having a job (the only field i'm interested in and good at offers two options:#to become an academic#or to become a freelancer#i do not have the fortitude to be an academic and being a freelancer is convoluted and pays like shit)#i might've spent 24h without my parents occasionally if i spent the night at a friend's place once or twice recently#but besides that the last time i've gone 48h without my parents was when the mental health center organised a week camp uhhhh...#two summers ago#incredibly good for my mental health as you can see#god i remember like... years ago. around 13yo maybe or 14. a guy. i dont know if he was a mental health professional or like social cases#but anyway he told me ''you're too afraid to be away from mommy and daddy'' and it made me want to rip his eyes out#several other people have implied or suggested that too over the years and it's just#am i too dependant on my parents? yes. will it be difficult to take my independance? yes.#does it means i don't both rationally recognize and feel that this is really fucking unhealthy and hindering for me#on top of being unpleasant?#FUCK NO#i want out my guy. there's just not many opportunities for an already mentally ill teenager#now that i'm eighteen i have to grapple with the logistical problems of the money needed and how to continue my education#and im sure a billion more if i start searching a little more seriously#perhaps i should kill myself that way i don't cost anyone any more money#broadcasting my misery#vent

notes: inspired yet again, by something that happened to me irl and perpetuated by @sipsteainanxiety​,  @namodawrites​  and other teahouse peeps. a sequel to this work. 
Tumblr media
"The fuck is that?" 
Were this your first encounter with the Great Explosion Murder God Dynamight, you might be scared. Admittedly, you might be the slightest bit nervous, but Katsuki Bakugou has shown up at your doorstep armed with his sharp tongue and sharper gaze enough times that you know that there's nothing to actually fear. The worst thing that Bakugou has ever done to you is call you an idiot and walk out of the room. 
You offer Bakugou your trademark sheepish smile. "It's miso soup."
"No shit," he spits, stepping past you into your apartment proper. " S'not what I'm talking about, idiot— what the hell are you drinkin' it from?"
You lift the cup to your lips and take a sip, watching as he kicks off his shoes. "A measuring cup?"
Bakugou hurls a disgusted look in your direction. After a moment, his eyebrows rise, a silent gesture for you to start explaining since you both know that your 500mL measuring cup is not intended to be a serving vessel for miso soup or soup of any kind.
"It was the first thing I grabbed," you say, following Bakugou into your kitchen. “Besides, I think most of my dishes need washing anyway.”
"Hah!?" His head whips around and you can see his eyes zero in on the dishes in the sink. "You really frickin' let it pile up this much?"
"I meant to do them all last night since I knew you were coming..." You decide to not tell Bakugou the reason why you didn’t actually do your dishes; he doesn't need to know that you got caught up in an impromptu marathon on your couch last night. 
Bakugou’s head jerks again, his narrowed gaze fixed on you and it feels almost as if you’ve gone transparent. It’s probably an intimidation technique, but you don’t let it faze you and just smile at him like you’ve done nothing wrong. You were going to wash them eventually.
"Hurry up an' get washing," he barks, pointing at the sink. "We ain't starting the lesson til those dishes are spotless!"
Despite Bakugou’s grousing there aren’t really that many dishes in the sink— a benefit of living alone. Washing them shouldn’t take too long. Maybe fifteen minutes at the very most.
You start washing and fully expect Bakugou to just watch you and comment on your poor dishwashing form, but instead he grabs a dish towel and begins hand drying things as you finish washing them. Personally, you think it’s just fine to let them air dry, but you suspect that Bakugou wants them not only spotless, but dried and put away in their proper places. 
With his help, the dish washing time is cut nearly in half and you start to put all the neatly dried dishes away in your cupboard.
“Hey.”
“Hm?” 
“Thought you said all your bowls and shit were dirty.”
You blink and look, and there are a few small bowls sitting there that weren’t in the group of dishes that you washed. “Oh, yeah… I didn’t use those because they’re not microwavable.” 
It’s true. The bowls in question are ornate and delicate. Honestly, you only really use them when your parents come to visit which isn’t very often. Maybe they would be better in storage… 
“...Microwavable?” Bakugou’s voice is calm. Almost oddly so. 
“Yes?”
His eyes slide over to the now empty measuring cup in your hand, the final dish you need to put away. You think he’s ready to live up to his namesake and blow up. Thinking about it, perhaps he would find some offense to instant miso soup, but it’s not like it’s the worst thing in the world right? He’s gotten mad at you for using kitchen shears as a knife and a measuring cup as a mug, but instant miso soup isn’t that strange. It’s normal! A convenience! 
Finally, Bakugou heaves the heaviest sigh you’ve ever seen, looking more like he’s swallowed an explosive rather than feeling relieved. “Alright, nerd, for today’s lesson, we’re learnin’ how to make miso soup— the proper way.”

let me psychoanalyze you, but also be nice.
you're unbelievably lonely.
maybe the teacher always sat next to you on the bus because it was the only open seat on field trips. maybe you were the fourth kid in the group project who was only there because they needed one more person. maybe you spent all of 7th grade lunch in the library. i think it's important to remember that it won't always be like that. it might take longer than expected but nobody is alone forever. sometimes it's hard to remember that just because you've felt unloved before, it doesn't mean you're unloved now.

i may have vaguely referenced it at some point but both linebeck and damien are frugal and stingy (moreso linebeck but that’s a given) and it means they’re pretty good at actually handling money but it also means they very much have fallen into the pitfall of both of them purposefully leaving their money at home while on a date with each other so the other person would have to pay and then realizing they don’t have any money to pay for the date with at all

my question is. who would win in a fight to the death between all of your ocs and why. the people (me) want to know
i HAVE to say minerva in any contest like this. i feel mages automatically have the advantage, let alone blood mages, let alone fucking arcane warrior battlemage blood mage high constitution warden freaks with all their spells in the primal school who are specifically designed to do as much damage as fast as possible and be as little reliant on the party as possible. nobody comes close. it is how it is
