rottmnt tickle head cannons? What is your favorite tickle trope for Rise? (As in who is your favorite Lee/ler scenario)
🐢Rottmnt Tkl Headcanons♡
~Oooooh my Rise hcs! Sorry I've been so dead recently, school is kicking my ass this semester (⊙⁠﹏⁠⊙). I'll do character hcs first, and the trope thing at the end. Much longer than my others for sure. I need to do more for these skrunkles tbh. Slight Rise spoilers if you squint. Sorry this took 8,000 years, and thank you for requesting!~

💥Raph🧸
Tumblr media
General:
We can all agree that this big ol’ teddy bear loves tickles, right?
Be it a fluffy comfort or destroying a bratty brother, Big Raphie is up for it.
Taking this into account, he feels like a switch.
Might admit he likes it around the right person, though his brothers have known for years.
He has to really trust someone to tell them.
Doesn't wanna seem like he's unfit to protect his brothers. As you can probably guess, he gets lovingly ejected from that mindset when people find out.
Lee:
If he gets a lee mood, he tries to hide it and fails miserably.
Big boy will have the dopiest grin around his playful brothers, which he does a horrible job at hiding.
Can't seem to focus on his advice-giving or training. It doesn't take long for his brothers to notice.
Worst spot is his underarms. You get him there and he'll give every dog near a NYC sewer grate a headache.
Melt spots are his palms and beneath his chin. Gentle scratches on either surface melt him into a happy, giggly puddle.
Likes being tickled by anyone really close to him. He's just gotta be in the right mood for it. April kills him most often.
Amazing thing to do to him is gentle melt-spot attention to help him relax. Toss in some reassurances and praise while you're at it. He'll be in a blissful daze for hours.
Ler:
Mostly a revenge-ler, but he can also randomly get ler moods.
He loves the Tickle Monster persona, always uses it on his brothers when they're being shitheads.
A softer ler, though he isn't afraid to wreck someone if they refuse to quit (or ask).
When he's being nice, soft scribbles, flurries of pokes, and side squeezes.
“Cootchie-coo, ya cutie!”
When he's not-so-nice, you get one or two giant, inescapable tickle-claws attacking you, big squeezes and occasionally neck nibbles if he's feeling evil.
Mikey, Leo and April get it most often, though each for different reasons.
Mikey straight up asks, and big bro is more than happy to provide. Boy loves a willing lee.
Leo’s always a shit, and some Raphie tickles work wonders on taking him down a peg.
April either offers to let him tickle her as a stress/mood reliever or engages a tickle fight.
He gives the best aftercare ever (⁠*⁠˘⁠︶⁠˘⁠*⁠)⁠。⁠♡. Cuddles, back rubs, maybe a nap in his cozy lap if you're comfortable with it. Potential hot chocolate if you're patient.
🗡️Leo✨
Tumblr media
General:
Sassy man gives off ler-leaning switch.
Always in the mood to lovingly murder his brothers’ lungs, but occasionally likes to forget his name.
This playful goof definitely likes tickling, though he refuses to admit it. He needs to protect his coolness, afterall.
Lee:
When the lee mood hits, everyone in the house is immediately notified. Not directly, of course, but it's pretty obvious that something's up.
WAY more one-liners and flippy jokes than normal. Awkward finger guns at the end of jokes, little prods and pokes for no reason, just general annoyance.
In his mind, he'll either annoy them into wrecking him, or they'll pick up on it and help. Either way, he gets tickled.
If anyone tickles him, it's usually either Raph or Mikey. Raph gets tired of his shit the quickest, and Mikey is good at reading people.
Worst spots are his thighs and feet. Get him there, and there's no way he'll be able to even think about sassing anyone through his laughter.
Melt spots are his forearms. After a long day of patrolling the city and being awesome, some light traces there will make him a very happy turtle.
Ler:
Okay but the SASS
He's such a teasy bastard of a ler. Will tease and coo at his lee until they're a flustered, blushy mess. Then he'll call ‘em cute one more time, just because he can.
He frequently gets ler moods, but those are way easier to take care of than their opposite.
Most of the time, his lee will be Mikey or Donnie. His bubbly brother is almost always in the mood for a good tickle “fight,” and Donnie needs to relax sometimes.
Has a bit of a rough style, but does get softer moods sometimes.
During regular moods, he loves to dig into sides and bellies, attack death spots and blow raspberries to hear a lee squeal.
On softer occasions, he'll gently skitter his fingers along death spots, switching places whenever the giggling gets too loud. Maybe some tickly kisses if you're lucky
His aftercare typically consists of cuddling during a Jupiter Jim movie, snacks, and gentle praises. Makes sure his victims are smiling, even when his fingers aren't wiggling.
🎨Mikey☀️
Tumblr media
General:
Sunshine boy loves tickling, both as a bonding activity and a coping method.
He's a lee-leaning switch for sure. Ready to get his ass handed to him, but open to helping out his brothers’ lee moods or cheering someone up.
Has magical “can say the t-word at any time” powers. You know he abuses the absolute heck out of said powers, too.
Lee:
Lee moods are no rare thing for this boyo.
Gets them very frequently, though he's actually able to ask for help when he needs it.
Either accidentally or on purpose, he's able to fluster his ler. He'll ask for more, one specific spot, tell them that they're doing an awesome job, ect.
When he gets super stressed, some cheer-up/calm-down tickles are much appreciated (⁠ ⁠ꈍ⁠ᴗ⁠ꈍ⁠)
A massive squirmer, he can't help it. Make sure to pin or hold him, or you might get an elbow to the nose (accidentally, of course; he'd never stop apologizing).
Worst spots are his knees and neck. Either spot gets him screeching, though he isn't likely to try and stop you.
Melt spot is his palms. With his mildly-terrifying mystic magic, some feather-light touches can be reassuring. Just make sure to ask first.
Everyone kinda rotates through wrecking him, though Raph and Donnie kinda dominate the field.
Either because they catch on/get annoyed the quickest or something else, he's usually found with them.
Ler:
Surprisingly formidable ler
Don't let his cinnamon-roll vibe fool you: this man can and will wreck your shit.
Tweaks his style a bit for each person. Super observant and tailors how and what he does to each lee.
Compliment-teases are his specialty. He'll have you blushing in 5 seconds flat.
“Aww, I love your blush! It's so bright and cute, just like you!”
“This squishy belly is just so ticklish, isn't it? Here I thought it was just adorable!”
“Was that a snort? No, don't hide it! Those are the best!”
His ler moods are a bit rarer, but they are absolutely something to fear (or enjoy while they last (⁠◡⁠ ⁠ω⁠ ⁠◡⁠)).
Super sweet aftercare. You can't escape cuddling (unless you can't handle the touch, he'll understand). Usually some hand-baked treats as well, depending on what he has hidden from his brothers.
General:
🛠️Donnie👾
Tumblr media
He's a ler-leaning switch, but that's mainly because he's not always open for being touched.
He gets lee moods, but they're rarer. People have to ask before they try anything.
Even with ler moods, not always open to get somebody.
Communication with this boy is key.
Lee:
It takes a good combination of good day + not overstimulated + in a touchy mood, but he does get lee moods.
Tries to hide and ignore them, but it never works out. Either Shelldon finds him and helps, or one of his brothers stumbles across the mood.
If he’s super overwhelmed with a project and okay with touch, some light tickles are perfect for bringing him back to Earth.
Little hand flaps and kicks when you get him. Happy stims galore! (˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶)
Worst spot is his soft shell, though armpits are a close second. Loud, bright and occasionally hysterical reactions.
Melt spots are his belly plastron and tops of his thighs. Gentle traces and scratches on either spot leave him a stimmy, giggly puddle.
Most of the time, it’ll be Leo who tickles him. It’s usually for help calming down, though April isn’t far behind.
Will never admit it, but he does enjoy both sides of tickling.
Ler:
You know this mans uses his shell attachments to wreck people.
Those metal claws? Yeah, good luck- =͟͟͞͞(꒪ᗜ꒪‧̣̥̇)
Very dramatic commentary on his lee’s reactions. His inner theater kid loves to shine. Either that, or complete monotone. There’s no in-between, and he’s never offered an explanation.
“Oh my, you’re laughing rather hard, my dear gigglebug!”
“Judging by this raucous laughter, I’d say this is your worst spot.”
“Oh, it tickles? Really badly? How unfortunate for you…”
Has absolutely made tickle-specific gadgets and I will die on this hill.
Remember the feather staff feature from the Shredder episode? He didn’t just have that for no reason.
Usually wrecks Mikey and/or Leo. They’re both very talented at provoking him, either on purpose or by accident.
His aftercare depends on his mood. If he’s cool with touch, he’ll cuddle and watch a movie with you. If not, you’ll usually get some pats from his claw and snuggles from Shelldon (yes lil’ dude is fine gimme a break)
📹April⚾
Tumblr media
General:
Hmmmm toughie, but I’d say ler-leaning switch. Not all that ticklish, but willing to help if one of her brothers is in a bad ler mood.
She just kinda prefers to do the tickling most of the time, unless it’s for her bros.
Extremely confident, bears the magic power of saying the t-word whenever she pleases. You know she puts it to good use, too.
Being the sister of the family, she’s gotta put her bros in their places. Why not use tickling?
Lee:
While it’s not often, she’ll let Big Raphie tickle her if he needs to.
Sometimes that boy just needs someone to reassure him that he’s not hurting them while giggling their brains out.
She’s pretty good at sitting still, amazing poker face. Could easily dominate in the Arms Up game.
As I said before, not super ticklish. Serves her well in tickle fights (˵ ¬ᴗ¬˵)
Only her ribs really get her laughing, but other than that it’s bubbly, pitchy giggles.
Doesn’t really have a melt spot, though if she had to choose a favorite, it’d be her belly.
Ler:
VERY very teasy. Easily-flustered lees be warned (˘ ˘ ˘)
Loves seeing her lee blush and sputter, finds it endlessly adorable.
“What? Oh, it tickles? Good, thought I might’ve been going too easy on ya!”
“Oooo, someone’s blushin’! How cute~”
“Wonder what would happen if I went for your worst spot… Only one way to find out!”
Giggles along with her lee. They’re adorable—how could she not?
As big sis, it’s her job to keep her brothers in line. Why not use tickling?
Frequently gives Raph calm-down/confidence-boosting tickles. Boy’s too stressed, in her opinion.
After him, it’s helping Donnie relax or pry him away from a project. Leo also needs to be taken down a peg every once in a while.
Super snuggly aftercare. Back rubs, praises and even some teases for the road, if ya catch my drift~
🔥Cassandra🏒
Tumblr media
General:
I’m feeling ler on this one. She doesn’t seem like she’d enjoy being tickled too much, though she definitely doesn’t mind wrecking others.
Before the Hamato fam stepped in, she didn’t really have much experience in the tickly field.
Maybe one of her foot-face mentors, but other than that, nada.
That absolutely changes when she joins the bros.
Ler:
Ready to vanquish any “enemy” lee mood to help her friends out.
Rougher style normally, though she can be convinced to dial it back. You wanna forget your name? She’s your gal.
Takes her role sorta seriously, though she can be playful. Just depends on her mood.
If she does tease, it’s more observational than anything.
She just kinda says flustering stuff without meaning to.
“Well, no duh it tickles. That’s the whole point!”
“Not there? You asked me to tickle you, but scold me the moment I get somewhere? I don’t think so!”
Attacks everyone pretty evenly, but she does have a preference for April and Raph. They’re the most fun to take down, in her opinion.
Cass respects boundaries, of course. You genuinely want her to stop and she’ll be off you in seconds.
Doesn’t grasp the concept of aftercare quite yet. Once you can breathe, she’ll start asking for feedback.
“How was that? Did it really tickle? Details, giggler, details!”
If specifically requested, though, she does give a mean back-rub and/or massage. If your back or neck is ticklish, though, you’re gonna have a whole new problem~ ( ˉ͈̀꒳ˉ͈́ )
💮Splinter🐀
Tumblr media
General:
Splints has ler energy, ya know?
Like April, not super ticklish. He isn’t the biggest fan of being tickled, but if it’s with very specific people, he’ll tolerate it.
Doesn’t interact tickle-wise very often, but he does have his moments.
Is very aware that his children love it and tries to connect with them in that way sometimes.
Ler:
With his ninja skills and small size, he can take down even the brattiest of lees in seconds.
You see his tail? Yeah, absolutely uses it to help wreck his victims.
Very playful, goofy ler. Laughs along with his lee, makes little comments on their reactions.
“Oh my, little one. I never would have thought you’d be so sensitive!”
“Heheh, what a cute laugh! You really should let me hear it more often!”
When he notices any of his kids are down in the dumps, he sneaks in a few pokes and scritches with his tail.
If that doesn’t work, they get the full-Splints treatment. Reassuring teases, rougher tickles and his undivided attention.
He’ll bug Draxum when he feels like it, which is more funny than anything.
Reducing the broody goat-man to a giggling, cursing mess is therapeutic for him ( ͡º ꒳ ͡º)
His aftercare is light and sweet. Head pats, reassurances, and a small cookie break for a nice close.
🌱Baron Draxum🐐
Tumblr media
General:
Before the turtles, had little to no idea what tickling was about.
Sure, he knew that people laughed when it happened, but he couldn’t tell what was so great about it. It was just touch and laughter - no big deal.
Once the teetles got ahold of him, though? Yeah, that view changed pretty quick.
Turns out he’s a switch. Likes “destroying his nuisances” with the harmless technique, but doesn’t mind it being used on him.
Will never admit the latter, though.
Lee:
A LOT more ticklish than one would imagine. Like a few squeezes will leave him giggling and blushing like there’s no tomorrow.
He’s pretty good at hiding his lee moods, though they definitely aren’t repressible. Draxy feels them, but can keep others in the dark.
If anyone’s gonna notice, it’ll be Lou (Splinter). He knows the man the best, thanks to Mikey’s whole “fatherly-bonding” push.
Splints will help, though he’ll tease the shit out of the Baron the entire time.
While he’ll never tell the rat man, he enjoys the silly exchanges.
Worst spots are his hips and shoulder blades. Either place will have him stuck in a snorty, rumbling bout of hysterics.
Melt spots are his palms. He adores gentle traces there, lets him know somebody cares.
Ler:
Absolutely uses his mystic powers to help him.
Those vines? Yeah, restraints and tickle tools for days
Very smug ler, likes to tease his lees until they’re flustered messes. It’s done out of love, though, so can you blame him?
“This must be torturous, huh? The vines holding you still, my fingers on your worst spots… However, I don’t think I’ve heard you say stop…”
Usually tickles the teens if they’re annoying him, but also goes after Lou every so often.
He knows there’ll be repercussions, but life’s no fun without a little risk.
Huginn and Muninn are next in line. Surprising no one, they’re and attention whores. Draxy makes sure they get their fills.
Not the best with aftercare, but he tries. Back rubs and light praises while you catch your breath. Maybe some of his “confectionary wonders” if you’re brave enough.
*✧⁠◍Favorite Trope & Lee/Ler Pairing◍✧⁠*
Okay, so there’s no way I can pick a single favorite pairing. I love them all too much! I can, however, name my top 3.
lee!Raph, ler!April is definitely up there. I adore the big-siblings energy in their fics, and they just bond so well!
Pretty much anything with lee!Donnie in it. I love seeing the smarty-pants get got ( •̀ ᵕ •́ )
lee!Draxum and ler!Splinter. Okay, hear me out, but I love redemption arcs and enemies to friends/lovers/co-parents or whatever you wanna call what they have going on. They’re fun and I like fun.
For my favorite trope, I’m gonna have to go with cheer-up tickles, or more specifically, some stop-stressing-tf-out tickles. It’s always so fun to read how people would cheer up the boys, as well as write some super duper, totally not self-indulgent fics like that for myself. Maybe one day they’ll see the light, but don't count on it lol (¬////¬)

Okay, But Who Do You Main in Mario Kart?
Fandom: DC
Ship: JayRoy, Birdflash
Summary: Dick just wants to play Coin Runners, and Jason knows not to fight when Dick has that look on his face. Based on my belief that I could guess who someone mains in Mario Kart based on their personality, and this incredibly clever and big-brain anon. (ps, Dick would totally main Cat Peach)
“I fucking hate Coin Runners,” Jason sighs, watching his older brother choose the next game for them to play, “can we just do another race, dickhead?”
“No,” Dick whines, “I love Coin Runners and we haven’t even played once.”
“Yeah,” Jason groans, “because it sucks.” He looks towards Roy in hopes that he’ll choose a side, but is just met with an apathetic expression. 
“I’m staying out of this,” Roy shrugs, “but your team kind of sucks at mini games, Dick. Why don’t we go back to the races?”
“Hey!” Wally gasps, sending a scandalized look in Roy’s direction, “half of our team sucks, that’s an important distinction.” 
Dick’s jaw drops, pausing his character selection to gape at his boyfriend. “It’s not my fault you decided to take the opportunity to try out new characters!”
“Well it was either choose a new character and have an excuse for losing, or have to admit that my boyfriend absolutely sucks at Mario Kart!” Wally exclaims, gesturing vaguely towards the screen. 
Just as they fall into a rhythm of back-and-forth bickering, the front door opens down the hall, the chattering of Steph, Mia, Cass, and Donna floating through the foyer. Quick, quiet footsteps dash towards the living room, and Steph pokes her head in, looking warily towards the couch. “We brought Dunkin.”
“Fuck yes,” Jason exclaims, rising from the couch to grab a coffee, Roy trailing behind. 
Wally and Dick stay on the couch, customizing their cars as they wait for Roy and Jason, that is, until Donna’s head is suddenly popping into the room, “doughnuts too!” They’re in the kitchen, quite literally, in the blink of an eye, raiding the box of doughnuts while Mia, Cass, and Jason talk about what they’ve been reading. Mia is only interested in talking about Tennessee Williams, ‘going through a phase’ as Roy describes it, and Cass divulges that she’s been in a reading slump. Jason could only suggest Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, the only book he’s read in the last two weeks, courtesy of a special request from Lian. 
Dick and Wally get wrapped up talking to Donna about some off-world issue that Diana, Clark, and Hal had been tending to, and whether Dick should bring back the discowing costume. The opinion is a hard, resounding no, but Dick still argues for giving it a new life, now that they’re in a 70s resurgence. By the time Wally and Dick return to the living room, Jason and Roy have already resettled, Cass and Mia also now in the room, sitting on one of the far couches while contemplating joining the game. 
When Dick finally sits on the couch, he notices that the game has been changed; Coin Runners was ended prematurely, and Jason and Roy are in the character selection for a 200cc race. They have already chosen their characters, Wario and Dry Bones, and are waiting for Dick and Wally to select their own. Dick glares Jason’s way, ignoring the impatience on his younger brother’s face.
“Just choose Cat Peach so we can play already,” Jason chides, jokingly grabbing for Dick’s controller on the coffee table. Dick intercepts him, attempting to shoo him away by poking him in the ribs. Jason shies away with a grunt, quickly recoiling out of reach. When he’s upright and no longer as vulnerable, he locks eyes with Dick, eyes squinted. 
Dick grins back, mischievous and lightly malicious, quite Chesire cat. Jason knows exactly what the look means, and before Dick can even move a finger he’s catapulting himself over the back of the couch, making a mad dash down the hall. “Oh fuck no.”
Dick makes chase, giggling maniacally and frantically as he follows Jason’s loud footsteps out of the living room. 
“Leave me the fuck alone!” Jason yells as he’s backed into a corner, seriously considering whether it’s worth it to scale the wall next to the stairs to get to the second floor. He decides that it is, throwing himself as high as he can get, hoping to grab onto the railing. He falls back down with a thud when Dick grabs him around the ankle, tackling him to the ground. “Fucking ow, dickhead.”
“This is all on you, Jaybird. We could’ve just played Coin Runners,” Dick teases, trying to grab Jason’s wrists as Jason bucks wildly. “Hey, Wally?” Dick calls down the hall, back towards the living room. 
“Yeah, babe?” Wally responds.
“I need your help!”
Wally is next to him before he even finishes the sentence, grinning down at Jason and Dick grappling. Jason grunts when Dick manages to gain the upperhand for a moment, stradling Jason, and Dick is quick to tell Wally to grab Jason’s hands. 
“Fuck, no, West, I will kill you,” Jason threatens with a glare. He considers, for a fraction of a second, calling Roy, but that would be admitting defeat. He continues to fight until Wally shoots a slowly vibrating finger towards Jason’s ribs, Jason squealing and tensing enough for Wally to scoop both wrists into his hands. “You’re so dead, you’re not living to see tomorrow, West.”
Wally pales, but plays it cool, “you know, I’m not too worried. You don’t look all too threatening right now.”
“I promise, it will be slow and-” Jason clamps his mouth shut, biting hard on his bottom lip. Dick had brought his hands up to dig into Jason’s sides, going from slow, teasing circles to spidering in with his fingertips, switching at random intervals. 
“C’mon, Jaybird, I know you wanna giggle. I see the smile peeking out,” Dick teases with that disgustingly endeared voice he does when he’s pulling the Big Brother card. 
Just as Jason gets used to Dick’s maddening pattern, Dick reaches a hand back and squeezes Jason’s hip, and Jason snorts loud enough to be heard all the way down the hall, the dam finally breaking. 
“You forget,” Dick grins, “I am your older brother, I know exactly how to get you to break.”
“Fuc- fuhuhucking- no,” Jason cackles, throwing his head back with another snort when Dick continues to squeeze. He makes a show of pulling at his arms, but Wally can tell its nowhere close to Jason’s full strength, something Dick knows all too well. 
When he’s satisfied with how many snorts he’s produced from Jason, and satisfied with Jason’s embarrassment about his uncontrollable snorting, Dick’s fingers move to Jason’s stomach, pinching the skin on both sides of his belly button. Jason squeals, bucking up and down as he starts to giggle, uncontrollably. Jason would have taken this to his grave if it weren’t for Dick, if it weren’t for his older brother analytically conjuring the most embarrassing reactions he can from him. 
“You know, if I didn’t value my life, I would say that this is almost cute,” Wally chirps, and Jason squeals out a string of curses and threats. Wally thinks he can make out something about time travel, and something about Barry and space, but it’s not as scary when Jason is red in the face, giggling uncontrollably as his older brother tickles his tummy. 
When Jason feels his shirt move up, seeing the evil glint in Dick’s eyes, he absolutely screams, bucking as hard as he can, desperately squirming to get away from his brother’s rapidly descending face. “Dihihick, no! Yohou’re so dead! I sw-” Jason cuts himself off with a screech, trying to melt into the floor to get his stomach away from Dick’s lips. Dick just laughs along, giving him a few more before relenting. 
“I’m not done just yet,” Dick teases, “one more spot, Jaybird.” Dick looks up from his brother for a minute and notices Roy leaning against the wall, trying to hide his endeared grin at the state his boyfriend is in on the ground. Dick starts to rub soft, ticklish circles under Jason’s belly button, grinning when his brother starts to giggle again. “Oh look, we even have an audience.”
Jason hadn’t realized his eyes had been screwed shut, but he opens them quickly, looking up at Roy, mortified. “Dihihick, you’re going to die.”
“Well, yeah, we all are,” Dick says in a sing-song tone, “but you first.” With that, his fingers dart up to Jason’s armpits, and his younger brother shrieks, trying to jacknife away from too all-too-knowing fingers. “Good to know this is still your worst spot!” 
Jason tries to dispute it, tries to continue to threaten his brother, but it all tickles so much, and his body feels like a live wire. Something about Dick tickling him always made it so much worse, it made everything tickle so much more, and he always felt completely helpless up against Dick’s Big Brother Skills™ and Big Brother Tactics™. 
Wally suddenly lets go of Jason’s hands, and Jason manages to wrestle Dick away from him, rolling onto his stomach and giggling into his arms. 
“You broke my boyfriend, Dickie,” Roy says, jokingly upset. 
“Nah, he’s just fine,” Dick waves off with a grin, “he’ll sit there and giggle for a few minutes, and blush for the rest of the day, but he’ll survive.” 
Jason groans, something so incredibly embarrassing about how Dick cannot only precisely predict Jason’s reactions, but also the aftermath of his attacks. He tries to sit up, but just continues to giggle, proving Dick’s point as he brings his hands up to cover his face. 
Dick ruffles Jason’s hair, standing next to Wally, “hurry up, we’re playing Coin Runners.”
Jason just groans, flipping him off as Dick and Wally walk back towards the living room. Roy moves closer to Jason, kneeling down so he can see his face. He puts a single finger under his chin and leans in, placing a kiss just on the corner of Jason’s mouth. “That was really cute.”
Jason’s blush grows hotter, glaring at Roy. “Don’t think you’re safe, West is the top of my hit-list, but you’re not too far down.”

Lee!Casey SR. hours
lee!Cassandra ler!Raph
Casey had been lounging around the lair for a while, she tried her best to connect with everyone but seemed to overwhelm people and she herself got overwhelmed with these new emotions, sights and just things she didn't generally understand like hugs from Mikey or humour from Leo or just social cues in general.She eventually went be alone, there was no one near the train tracks so she just sat behind one of the train cars, hugging her knees to her chest. After a while she heard heavy footsteps nearing her, she looked up and saw Raphael peering over her.
"Hey Casey, what are you doing back here" asked Raph which prompted Casey to panic.
"Uhh, Im just..CHECKING FOR BUGS!"she exclaimed but Raph bought none of it.
"Casey-" he said in a worried tone but was then cut off by Casey.
"NOTHING MAKES SENSE"yelled Cassandra.
Raph was a little taken a back and then raised his finger as he was about to speak.
"I DON'T GET ALL OF THIS TOGETGERNESS OR YOU ALL' KINDNESS OR ANY OF THE STUPID LITTLE THINGS THE BLUE ONE SAYS, I'M TRYING TO FIT IN HERE BUT I JUST FEEL SO OVERWHELMED BY THESE TRIVIAL NEW THINGS" yelled Cassandra.Cassandra then sighed and put her head in her knees.
Raphael scratched his head "Raph doesn't fully understans how to deal with that, I mean, you shouldn't feel ashamed of not fitting in"said Raph.
"I guess, but I still wish I could take it all in better somehow, I'm still getting used to the fact that you all think I'm even good enough to be here, especially April, She really has faith in me" said Casey.Raph nodded and put a hand on her shoulder. A light bulb popped in his head.
"LIGHT BULB" yelled Raph.
"Huh-" muttered Cassandra before she pulled into Raph's lap.
"HEY!WHAT THE HEEHEHEHELL"shrieked Casey.
"You seemed stressed, Raph knows how to deal with stress."Raph said digging his fingers in Cassandra'a sides.
"*SNORT* STAHAHAHAHAP" shrieked Cassandra
Cassandra had only been tickled once before, she attacked by April and Sunita on a "Girls Night"TM. There she learned what it was, that one of her death spots was her sides and even learned that she may or may not enjoy it. She would never admit that though.
She pushed and kicked in Raph's grasp but the alligator snapping turtle kept a good grip as he scribbled, squeezed ans prodded. All she could do at this point it let herself laugh.Raph snickered, he could sense she was having fun. She then accidentally kicked Raph in face.
"OW! YOU'RE GETTING IT NOW" yelled Raph as he blew raspberries in her sides.
Cassandra squealed and threw her head back.She eventually patted Raph on the shoulder signifying she was ready for him to stop now, and which he did.
"That was adorable"said Leo and Mikey who had apparently came to see what the ruckus was all about
"SHUT UP" barked Casey.
"Oh but it really was" said April, coming from behind Leo.
Cassandra blushed deeper at April's remark.
Leo, Mikey and April walked off, April winking as she walked away.
"WHATEVER" yelled back Casey, she then looked at Raph and worded "Thank you".
"Any time" said Raph.

The lack of lee Donna Beneviento rn is fucking illegal
▪︎ She's super ticklish everywhere, but her sides, hips, back, neck, and waist are the worst by far
▪︎ The poor thing couldn't say the t-word even if her life depended on it, even more so if she's in a lee mood
▪︎ Both Angie and the Dimitrescu sisters take every chance they can get to tease her about it
▪︎ Very insecure about her laugh (despite the fact that it could melt icebergs considering how adorable it is) and will 100% either bury her face into her ler's chest or a pillow or will cover her mouth with her hands in an attempt to muffle it
▪︎ Bela, Cas and Daniella all have a tendency to lift up Donna's veil and gently coo at her and whisper teasing phrases and compliments in her ears
▪︎ Will absolutely melt into a puddle when her worst spots are covered in tickly kisses

☁︎⋆ ⸻ era uma vez… uma pessoa comum, de um lugar sem graça nenhuma! há, sim, estou falando de você cassandra santiago. você veio de dallas, estados unidos e costumava ser analista de sistemas por lá antes de ser enviado para o mundo das histórias. se eu fosse você, teria vergonha de contar isso por aí, porque enquanto você estava andando de skate, tem gente aqui que estava salvando princesas das garras malignas de uma bruxa má! tem gente aqui que estava montando em dragões. tá vendo só? você pode até ser corajosa, mas você não deixa de ser uma baita de uma ressentida… se, infelizmente, você tiver que ficar por aqui para estragar tudo, e acabar assumindo mesmo o papel de chapeleira na história wonderland… bom, eu desejo boa sorte. porque você vai precisar!

☁︎ HEADCANONS
☁︎⋆ ⸻ nascida em dallas, descendente de uma família de imigrantes, precisou entender desde pequena a dar valor nas pequenas coisas. sua mãe faleceu quando ela tinha apenas 12 anos, deixando a responsabilidade de sua criação para sua irmã mais velha, valentina.
☁︎⋆ ⸻ cassie nem sempre foi um garota fácil de lidar, em sua concepção infantil, não conseguia assimilar o fato de não poder ter uma família feliz, não aceitava que dentre tantas pessoas no mundo ela precisasse passar dificuldades. eventualmente a maturidade clareou as ideias para cassie, mesmo que ainda fosse geniosa. fato que acabou tornando sua convivência com a irmã nem tão agradável assim.
☁︎⋆ ⸻ cassandra sempre gostou de assistir tv, aquele era um luxo que conseguiram ter e era sua maior distração junto com o skate. veio inclusive dos filmes de ficção científica o gosto por computadores, já que não podia ter um em casa. talvez por exigirem tanto de cassie, responsabilidades lhe desagradam fortemente, embora as cobranças de valentina sobre ter notas boas acabaram servindo para algo quando passou na universidade e estudou tecnologia da informação.
☁︎⋆ ⸻ as circunstâncias fizeram cassie se tornar uma mulher de espírito livre. assim como a irmã, que viaja a trabalho, também não passa muito tempo em casa. quando não está trabalhando, gosta de hobbies como andar de skate com amigos, visitar bibliotecas, ler os mais variados tipos de livros, respeitando o próprio orçamento é claro.
☁︎⋆ ⸻ naquela tarde de folga, foi conferir as encomendas como um dia qualquer quando se surpreendeu ao encontrar o livro. não se recordava de nenhum amigo que pudesse lhe presentear com um livro como aquele, logo achou que a irmã valentina estaria tentando uma reconciliação. o pensamento a fez repudiar o presente, e ainda magoada, deixou o livro esquecido em sua prateleira de colecionáveis. uma luz excessiva tarde da noite a levou acreditar que valentina estaria arrependida e havia retornado da viagem. não poderia estar mais errada, pois quando seguiu a trajetória da luz, notou que vinha do livro. tomada por uma curiosidade arrebatadora, se aproximou trajada de seus pijamas, mas mal teve tempo para tocar no livro antes de ser abduzida pelo objeto e levada ao mundo das histórias.
☁︎ PERDIDA
☁︎⋆ ⸻ quando caiu no mundo das histórias de merlin, cassie achou que estava sonhando, seus pijamas não a deixavam pensar diferente. contudo, quanto mais tempo passava naquele lugar, mais percebia que não estava sonhando, nem que tinha fumado maconha estragada. aceitou enfim que estava acordada e consciente. ficou extasiada por estar no mesmo lugar que todos aqueles personagens de livros que já tinha lido, e sim, ainda comete a gafe de chamá-los de personagens.

Tickletober Prompt: Ticklish Kiss + Nibbles/Bites + Arms Up
((Ler!Hugo and Lee!Varian! SFW only!))
Hugo adored Varian’s freckles and scars. They made his boyfriend absolutely beautiful and unique. So naturally, he loved smothering every inch of Varian’s body with kisses. The only thing that made it even better was that Varian was so, ridiculously ticklish and kisses in certain spots sent the younger boy into fits of giggles. It was honestly one of Hugo’s favorite pastimes, being able to turn his adorable boyfriend into a puddle of giggles and squeals. He decided he’d have to do that again as soon as possible.
˗ˏˋ꒰𖦹。🧪⋆°✰꒱ ˎˊ˗
The happy couple was cuddling in bed and Varian had been telling him about the scars on his stomach and ribs from when he’d been held hostage and attacked by Cassandra. Hugo listened willingly, knowing it wasn’t always easy for Varian to talk about traumatic events in his past.
“I just think they aren’t all that pretty.” Varian said, shrugging. Hugo gaped at him.
“Nonsense! I’m sure they are gorgeous!” Varian snorted and lifted his shirt to show Hugo.
“You sure about that, hun?” Gazing at the expanse of tan, freckled skin Hugo ran his fingers across the long, jagged scars that crisscrossed Varian’s tummy.
“You are so fucking beautiful, Freckles.” Hugo murmured before taking notice of Varian’s quivering tummy at the light touches. He smirked at the boy.
“Ticklish, goggles?” Varian bopped him lightly on the head.
“Y-you know I am, doofus!” The alchemist replied, choking back giggles. Hugo smirked, getting an idea.
“Say your scars are pretty, Varian.”
“No, why should I?” Hugo grinned and planted a kiss on one of the scars, just to the left of Varian’s bellybutton making him squeak and flinch.
“Because I’m not gonna stop kissing your tummy until you do.”
Before Varian had a chance to protest (though he wouldn’t have meant it anyway) Hugo had pinned his arms above his head and began smooching every inch of his twitching belly. He instantly burst into giggles and squeaks.
“H-Huhuhuhugooooo, dohohohon’t!” The smaller male giggled, halfheartedly wriggling around. Hugo paused briefly and grinned slyly at him.
“What’s the magic words, Bluebird?”
“F-fuhuhuhuck ohohoff!” Hugo gasped and feigned offense.
“Such profanity! I think I should punish you for using such foul language.” With that, Hugo switched from kisses to nibbles and raspberries, which turned Varian’s adorable giggles to full blown belly laughter.
“NOHOHOHOHO WAHAHAHAHAIT IHIHIHIHI’M SOHOHORY!”
Hugo grinned.
“That’s sweet, but not the words I wanna hear.” Teased Hugo, absolutely delighting in Varian shrieks of beautiful laughter.
Switching back to the kisses, he continued making his boyfriend giggle and squirm.
“Go on, say it.” Hugo sang, sneakily blowing a quick raspberry on Varian’s bellybutton making him squeal and buck wildly.
“Huhuhugohoho!”
“Yes, dearest? You know I could do this all day, and I bet you would enjoy it.” Hugo smirked watching Varian’s face turn red at the teasing.
“Plehehehehease!”
“Please what? Go back to nibbling this adorable tum of yours? Sure thing!” Varian cackled brightly as Hugo began nibbling his tummy again.
“Nohohohohot th-thahahahahahat!” Giggled the alchemist trying to tug his arms free.
“Not that? Raspberries it is then!” Chirped Hugo, releasing an endless stream of raspberries on Varian’s tummy, covering every inch of it with ticklish vibrations.
Varian howled, tossing his head back and letting the laughter come.
“HUHUHUHUHUGOOOOOO! STOOOHAHAHAHAHAP!” Shrieked Varian, wriggling like a worm on a hook. Hugo grinned.
“Didn’t hear you say anything!” The blonde teased switching sporadically between kisses, nibbles, and raspberry attacks, always keeping Varian guessing as to what ticklish onslaught would come next.
“OHOHOHOHOKAHAHAY OKAHAHAHAY! I’LL SAYHAYAHAY IHIHIT!” Varian cackled out when Hugo blew a particularly evil set of raspberries directly onto his bellybutton. Hugo grinned up at him and stopped the raspberries but began softly smooching again, keeping his boyfriend giggling enough not to have second thoughts.
“Well, let’s hear it. Don’t make me start nibbling again.” He warned between kisses, planting one just above his navel.
“Hehehe, m-mhyhyhyhy scars ahahahare p-prehehehetty.” Varian giggled out.
“Yes. They. Are.” Hugo confirmed kissing a scar to punctuate each word, Varian squeaking and giggling all the while. Then just for good measure and because it was fun, he startled Varian with one last giant raspberry making him shriek out loudly.
Chuckling, Hugo released Varian’s wrists and pressed a kiss to his still giggling lips.
“No more of that self-deprivation talk, or else.” Hugo warned, playfully wiggling his fingers at Varian who curled up and wrapped his arms around his stomach.
“Nohoho, no more please.” Begged the small alchemist, making Hugo chuckle fondly and give him a sweet forehead kiss.
“Hey now, I’m not that mean, am I?” He asked, jokingly, laughing when Varian flashed him a soft pout.
“You’re a bully, Hugo.”
“Oh, changed your mind about round two?”
“Don’t you dare!”
Giggling, Hugo pulled Varian into his arms and kissed the pout away. Varian smiled and leaned his head on Hugo’s shoulder.
“I love you, doofus.”
“I love you too, Bluebird.”
˗ˏˋ꒰𖦹。🧪⋆°✰꒱ ˎˊ˗
A/N: Hi again! Wow, look at me post 2 TickleTober drabbles in a week! Impressive! As I said before, I love Varigo and I will go down with this ship! No one ever writes tkl content for them, so I have taken it upon myself to write the content I wanna see! I know is said I’d write for other fandoms, but this ship has me in a chokehold! Hopefully soon I can show off my other fandoms, but as of right now, it’s all the Varigo!

Leitura 73 de 2023

Manual prático da Wicca
Cassandra Eason
⭐️⭐️⭐️
“Manual prático da Wicca” é exatamente o que o título propõe: um manual para colocar em prática os rituais e cerimônias da Wicca.
Lendo esse livro eu pude ver o quão próximos dos rituais reais da Wicca são os rituais descritos na série de livros House of Night, que foi um dos principais motivos que me deixou curiosa para saber mais sobre a Wicca e ler esse livro sobre.
Mas o manual conta com explicações bem superficiais quanto ao simbolismo por trás dos rituais e foca apenas na execução deles.
Se você não conhece a filosofia por trás da Wicca esse livro não vai te trazer nenhum conhecimento quanto a isso, mas se você já conhecer e se identificar com a Wicca esse livro é ideal para te ajudar a colocar em prática a Wicca no seu dia a dia.

We haven't seen much of this instance for these two, but how do we feel about ler!Cassandra and lee!Casey?
I mean, I have somewhat thought about them as they’re mother and son, but because I didn’t get to see the two of them interact I guess I don’t really gravitate towards their dynamic…
That being said, I would assume in the future Cassandra would be the type of mom who is a a complete badass but Casey is the only person who makes her soft, especially his laugh because as we’ve established Casey’s laugh is precious :)
I probably wouldn’t write for them but they would be an interesting and cute duo :)

☾ ⋆・゚:⋆・゚❝ “[she] had the look of one who had DRUNK the cup of life and ( found ) a dead b e e t l e at the bottom.” ❞
andrew ryan aprovou seu registro, então seja bem-vinda CASSANDRA MCCLINTOCK! com apenas TRINTA E UM ANOS DE IDADE você já é uma conhecida ENÓLOGA fazendo seu nome em rapture, ou não. apesar de ter deixado a vida na superfície para trás, toda vez que você se olha no espelho lembra-se dela por parecer muito com JODIE COMER. mas tudo bem! nada vai mudar porque a vida embaixo é muito melhor. assim disseram...
PERFIL apelidos cass, cassie, sandy (exclusivamente usado pelo seu pai). pronomes ela/dela. nascimento 6 de julho, câncer. cidade natal cambridge, inglaterra. orientação sexual bissexual, mas shh. família jane l. mcclintock (mãe, falecida), earl a. mcclintock (pai, falecido), charles e. mcclintock (irmão mais novo, falecido).
personalidade isfp. traços dedicada, reservada, generosa, inconstante, determinada, leal, perfeccionista. hábitos dedilhar superfícies, mastigar canetas, assoviar. habilidades enofilia, violino, caligrafia, alemão (fluente), francês (intermediário), ler rápido, esgrima. o vinho, livros de mistério, chapéus, filmes, música clássica, festas, a cor azul, bares, gatos, frutos do mar, espadas, café, fumar charuto. x copos vazios, gente que fala pelos cotovelos, fofoca, sua reflexão no espelho, sobremesas muito doces.
HEADCANONS
a) há trinta anos cassandra dava os seus primeiros passos no quintal da casa de seus pais no subúrbio de cambridge, esmagando uvas com os pés. a adolescência ela passou debaixo da sombra de qualquer uma das centenas de árvores que compõem a vinícola mcclintock, quase sempre com um livro nas mãos. aos dezesseis anos passou a acompanhar o pai em reuniões de negócios e ganhou até mesmo uma plaquinha dourada com o seu nome gravado para pendurar na porta de seu próprio escritório — escritório este que ocupou oficial e ativamente até a recente decisão de se mudar, de onde ela passou a agir como vice-diretora de operações a partir da maioridade. cassandra sempre colocou as necessidades da família antes das suas, dedicando-se inteiramente a manter o estilo de vida proporcionado pela comercialização de vinhos com o seu sobrenome no rótulo. 
b) a decisão de deixar o casarão onde nasceu e cresceu na inglaterra para iniciar uma vida nova em rapture partiu da necessidade de se afastar do caos que tinha se tornado o país antes, durante, e depois da guerra; do caos que tirara a vida de seu pai e de seu irmão mais novo. em grande parte, porém, a decisão também partiu da oportunidade de expandir o império mcclintock para além de fronteiras terrestres; de realizar o sonho de seu pai de dominação mundial: “até no novo mundo eles brindarão com vinhos mcclintock!“ o convite da mudança partiu do próprio andrew ryan, com quem ela passou a sustentar um caso logo após se instalar na cidade. 
c) tudo começou com uma bituca de cigarro indevidamente descartada e aí boom! uma tragédia. o incêndio levou uma usina de preparação inteira, e mais a metade esquerda do rosto de cassandra ao tentar resgatar o maior número de documentos possível lá de dentro. se a sua motivação era manter o estilo de vida garantida pelos negócios da família, cassandra perdeu na noite da explosão a sua vontade de viver; ela não tinha uma família para cuidar, muito menos qualquer evento da alta sociedade para ir sem que tivesse que mostrar seu rosto desfigurado. o hábito da bebida veio como consequência da solidão; com receio de ser identificada pelos outros habitantes da sua classe social em rapture, ela passou a frequentar locais mais obscuros onde podia afogar as suas mágoas sem preocupação.  
PERSONALIDADE
cassandra não é nem de perto e nem de longe a mais amigável das pessoas. depois do acidente, especialmente, ela faz questão de manter distância dos outros com medo de ser rejeitada, ou pior, de sujar o nome da sua família, da sua marca. recentemente, só mesmo a bebida tem sido capaz de trazer à superfície suas melhores qualidades, embora não da melhor forma; cassandra é leal e justa, por isso mais do que frequentemente acaba se envolvendo em brigas de bar para defender alguém ou alguma coisa. tornou-se uma pessoa tão amarga quanto as cervejas que entorna toda noite, mas seus amigos de mesa dirão que ela é uma mulher descontraída e leve depois que esquece dos problemas da vida. depois do vinho, seu melhor amigo é um violino que ela insiste em tocar para ninguém. sóbria, ela arrasta por aí uma nuvem de melancolia sobre a cabeça, olhando para o futuro e esperando encontrar traços do seu passado na superfície antes da guerra.

"vamos, menina, relaxe que vou ler o seu futuro.” didi disse dramaticamente enquanto colocava as mãos nas laterais do rosto de uma semideusa. após tomar a bebida que a deixou com aparência mais velha a dibaransi estava fingindo ser uma fantasma que possuía visões do futuro. além de já ter arrancado incríveis informações, também havia até conseguido alguns dracmas. genial. após dizer suas previsões falsas para a garota, recebeu a quantia pedida e acenou para ela quando foi embora. “dizem que todos os dias um trouxa e um esperto saem de casa.” retrucou para cassandra, que notou que observava a cena. “e em algum momento eles acabam se cruzando.” o riso de didi mostrava o quanto se divertia naquilo tudo, mostrando para a ruiva o quanto já havia faturado na noite.

Os dois tipos de leitores
"Este livro almeja não apenas leitores, mas todos aqueles que desejam se tornar leitores. Foi escrito especialmente para leitores de livros. No entanto, o público-alvo não são as pessoas que desejam apenas ler, mas as pessoas que desejam crescer intelectualmente enquanto leem." (Grifos meus)
Não é segredo para ninguém que o meio literário sempre foi cheio de picuinhas. Foi uma verdade no passado e permanece sendo uma verdade ainda hoje, porém me parece que com a proliferação e a acessibilidade dos livros, sobretudo com o advento das redes sociais, as picuinhas têm sido cada vez mais fúteis e de argumentos vazios.
A internet lotou de fiscais de leitura que impõem regras de acordo com a própria vontade e conveniência, ignorando completamente o fato de que há dois tipos de leitores conforme dito no parágrafo de epígrafe, escrito pelo professor Adler em seu livro Como Ler Livros.
Existem os leitores que apenas leem, ou seja, aqueles que veem livros como uma forma de lazer, sem buscar nada mais do que o próprio divertimento, e existem os leitores que leem para evoluir intelectualmente.
Todavia, cabe deixar bem entendido que um não é mais importante que o outro, embora me pareça que esses ditos fiscais literários esquecem disso, ignorando completamente o fato de que não é todo mundo que tem vocação para a intelectualidade, assim como não é todo mundo que quer ser um intelectual. E está tudo bem alguém não ter vocação para a intelectualidade e está tudo bem alguém não querer ser um intelectual.
Uma sociedade não pode e nunca pôde ser composta exclusivamente de filósofos e pensadores. Precisa haver o açougueiro, o marceneiro, o ferreiro, o artesão, etc. Todos eles têm a sua importância e validade na sociedade tanto quanto o intelectual. Cada qual com a sua arte e função.
O que eu penso que incomoda muita gente, confesso que é algo que me incomoda um pouco também quando vejo isso por aí, é quando cada um dos lados — o leitor que lê e o leitor intelectual — excede limites do objetivo pessoal com a leitura e menosprezam, subestimam ou superestimam outras formas de utilizar um livro.
Exemplos que eu já vi acontecerem e que me irritou:
Um dia, vi uma pessoa que lê por prazer pegar um livro clássico para experimentar essa forma de leitura, o que é ótimo, já que experimentar coisas novas pode te fazer descobrir uma vocação desconhecida, mas acontece que essa pessoa leu o clássico da mesma maneira que leu os livros da Colleen Hoover e depois fez uma crítica superficial e pedante desse clássico, porque não soube que leu da maneira errada um livro que precisa de um outro tipo de leitura. De quebra, talvez sem querer, desdenhou tanto da capacidade do autor em escrever em primeiro lugar, como dos diversos intelectuais que estudaram aquele clássico, que por mais que o leitor não acredite, exige muito mais cabedal para uma compreensão completa da obra.
Ainda sobre aqueles que leem por entretenimento, também já vi gente que acha que seus quatrocentos livros lidos que se alternam entre Stephen King, Sarah J. Maas, Cassandra Clare, Colleen Hoover, etc. se equiparam com livros como Dostoiévski, Stendhal, Tolstói, entre outros.
Não tem problema gostar dos primeiros e sua lista de leitura ser composta majoritariamente por eles, mas também não é possível equipará-los com o segundo grupo, afinal, clássicos são clássicos por um motivo e é essa falácia que me incomoda e acredito que é o que incomoda outros intelectuais também.  
Por outro lado, também sinto uma revolta com os intelectuais que  desvalidam as outras formas leituras e diferentes tipos de livros, como se todos os livros devessem ser escritos com o fim exclusivo da intelectualidade, como me irrita também aqueles que querem exigir um tipo de leitura mais apurada quando o propósito do leitor não é o de crescer intelectualmente. Foi o que comentei parágrafos acima, não é todo mundo que quer ser um intelectual.
Valendo-me de analogia para deixar o meu ponto ainda mais claro, vamos pensar em patinadores.
Existem dois tipos de patinadores, aquelas pessoas, principalmente as crianças, que compram um patins para brincar no parque aos finais de semana. Correm para lá e pra cá, apostando corrida e buscando a emoção na velocidade das rodinhas. Mas também existem aquelas pessoas que são patinadores atletas, aqueles que treinam em pistas profissionais aplicando técnicas superiores para dominar o controle da roda e evoluem habilidades para competirem com outros que desempenham o mesmo esforço.
Apresentado esses dois tipos de patinadores, eu pergunto: faz sentido um patinador amador se igualar a um atleta que treina há anos só porque patina por diversão? Ou um atleta exigir a habilidade e técnica daqueles que apenas gostam de utilizar o patins para brincar de vez em quando? É justo eliminar um objetivo da patinação em favor do outro?
Toda a situação parece ridícula quando falamos de patins, não é? Mas na leitura é a mesma coisa.
Apenas o objetivo da leitura — ou qualquer outra atividade — é que vai traçar o limite se o que está fazendo é suficiente ou não, se está certo ou errado, se é melhor ou pior.
Em outras palavras, quem quer ler por prazer, aceite o seu tipo de leitura, aceitando que há livros que fornecem mais que o entretenimento, ainda que não compreenda ou não enxergue, enquanto livros de entretenimento dificilmente conseguem substância maior que isso; já quem quer ler para crescer intelectualmente aceite que não é todo mundo que tem o mesmo objetivo que você para exigir isso deles e que nem sempre você será o público de destino, então limite-se igualmente ao seu propósito e deixe os outros lerem o que querem em paz.
Vou me despedir de vocês aqui, que a postagem já ficou muito longa. Sinta-se à vontade para comentarem sobre o assunto se quiserem. Até a próxima!

— Eu não. Creio que eu tenha sido muito protegida.
— Todos fomos, durante um tempo - falou Tessa. — O estado natural dos Caçadores de Sombras é a batalha. Quando está sempre em curso, não há tempo para se parar e se pensar que não é uma condição ideal para a felicidade. Caçadores de Sombras não são feitos para a calmaria, mas tivemos tempo para isso durante a última década ou mais. Talvez tenhamos começado a achar que somos invencíveis.
- As pessoas só são invencíveis em livros - afirmou Cordelia.
- Acho que você vai descobrir que na maioria das vezes, nem lá - disse Tessa. - Mas pelo menos sempre podemos pegar um livro e ler de novo. Histórias oferecem milhares de recomeços.
Era verdade, pensou Cordelia. Ela lera a história de Lava e Mainun mil vezes e toda vez o início era uma empolgação, embora ela conhecesse - e temesse - o fim.
(Corrente de Ferro - Cassandra Clare)
