Sometimes I think that the truths of teenagers out in the same institutions together are suppressed. Suppressed truths are a byproduct of self preservation. Why reveal your true authentic self when your attachment figures would turn on you at the slightest sign of vulnerability and ostracise you for views you believe represent you? And this is why I feel that sometimes high school can be the…

So, you and white haired boys, huh?

“what do you wanna be when you grow up??”

dead ❤️

like i see people say stuff like “rei is a deconstruction of the idea of like the perfect girl in a male gaze-y way” and and i'm ready to agree until they go “it’s because she’s creepy and weird and bad!” like no. rei's a deconstruction of misogynistic ideas of womanhood because they’re ideals forced upon her that damage her, not because she’s in any way “creepy”. like, the fact she’s a fourteen year old girl who was basically used as a substitute wife by her father bc she looked like his own dead wife is not something that is meant to make rei look bad like holy shit.

like both rei and asuka are very obviously like. showing fantasised and misogynistic ideas of an idealised woman don’t work irl yeah. shinji's misogynistic view of them is wrong. but that’s not because rei and asuka are bad people it’s because like. “fourteen year old who's flirty and seductive” and “fourteen year old who's a quiet obedient object” are major signs of abuse and trauma and anyone actually acting in those ways at that age clearly isn’t normal. asuka is desperate for attention in any way she can get it, even unhealthy and dangerous ways. rei is at the very least I has a weird pseudo-incestous enmeshment filled abusive relationship with her father, even if she's not actively being sexually abused. asuka is seeking support, rei is a grooming victim. these are not things that are flaws in their character the entire point of subverting the expectations is to show how those expectations are unhealthy to rei and asuka like. god.

headcanon that as sophie ages, she gets more and more off-put by how she still looks twenty at some age past 40. the only wrinkles she has are smile lines and a barely-there crease between her eyebrows that never leaves. no gray hairs. it doesn’t feel like there’s any physical evidence of how much stress aged her too fast.

(maybe she dyes more grays into her hair to feel better about her reflection, the more time passes by. maybe, on bad days, she contours wrinkles into her skin with makeup. maybe the bad days get more frequent as she ages outside the human lifespan. maybe.)

Tim never becoming robin but his parents still dying and him taking over Drake industries as a teenager which turns out to be actually very successful somehow and then uses that exclusively to fuck up lex luthors evil plans

“Oh, did you want that weapons contact? Turns out I made a deal with those guys last week, better luck next time!”

“Lex! You wanted to hire that tech specialist? I just set him up with a great job working on a project overseas, oh I can't quite remember where he's located now! Looks like it'll be a while until you can get in touch with him!”

“The company I just bought was producing an important machine piece for you? Unfortunately we had to discontinue that item due to some errors, you know how quality control can be.”

“Guess what! I just bought the rights to a very important type of laser technology and I'm suing everyone who uses it without permission! Just business, you understand!”

And of course lex tries to kill him but he keeps being saved just in time by various superheros (he probably has someone's personal cell number or an alarm he wired to go to oracle & the watchtower) 

Just civilian Tim doing mental warfare with lex and heros being like "stop antagonizing supervillains!!!!!" And Tim being like "what? I can't hear you over the sound of lex coming to kill me again because I outbid him for his security chief"

I need him to be happy actually

how many times do we gotta go over it man. thought crime isn't real. it's okay to feel whatever you're feeling. don't let anyone make you feel guilty for having some reflex reaction to stimuli in a way that is out of your control. the question isn't what you think or how you feel, but what you do. do you act upon those thoughts? do you harm others bc of your feelings? that's where you draw the line. keep it in your brain. vent it out in some personal way like a journal or a password locked blog. it's okay i promise

everyday I think about him (Ippolit Terentyev)

Leo, all alone in the prison dimension, finally let himself have the luxury of crying with the assumption that he’d never see his family again.

And then he’s saved, and what does he immediately do?

He reverts back to jokes.

I think about that a lot.

Everyone knows how Leo has an obsession with being the best at something, right? And in the episode where they go into the Maze of Death for pizza Leo refuses to use his mystic powers just to get his face in the wall of champions, almost costing them their lifes (there was fire. Fire. And the walls were closing? You cannot tell me that they weren't going to die. Unless no one was meant to die and someone stopped the maze when they got too close to losing their lifes? I don't know.)

In that episode, Leo says “y'know, it would really help me if you guys said I was your champion”, to what the guys replied with “just open it!” (the portal), clearly refusing to do that. So, I had the thought (yeah what a surprise. Thinking. Haha) of Leo doing something reaally big. Maybe saving their lifes in a different way than he usually does? Perhaps it could be him tricking Big Mama to stop her from killing them.

Well, the point is, Leo did something really great, so the fam says “only for this occasion. We'll only say it once. We won't repeat it”. Leo's like “uhh sure? Okay go ahead”, and then they say something like “Leo, to thank you for saving us and blah blah blah. Anyways, we wanted to let you know that you're our champion” or something like that.

And Leo's like oh my God? Did they really just say that?? And he goes silent. Staring at them. He asks “are you serious? Is this genuine?” and Donnie affirms that it is, and if Donnie says it's true then it must be true because Donnie wouldn't joke about that, so Leo feels great, because his brothers actually called him their champion! And he's! So! Happy!! Because let's be honest. This is a boy with clear abandonment issues who seeks praise. He shows this in a different way than Donnie, but it's still true, so to hear them all seriously saying that is truly amazing for him.

The others are worried, because Leo isn't saying anything? He's not bragging or being annoying. He was silent, to the point where if he wasn't in front of them then they wouldn't even notice he was even there!

Then Leo starts crying. And everyone else is surprised because wow that is not how I expected this to go. And, of course, they're all worried, because Leo never cries for something that isn't a sad movie or comic.

So now we have a sobbing Leo and three panicking brothers who don't know what to do.

i'm going thru another horror phase and it's... kind of making me want to write something todolf-adjacent maybe but more in a horror vein. like i know tod isn't all that, he's sexy dramatic toxic grim reaper boyfriend etc but ! idk i want to explore the idea that death is actually something scary as well as just something that's seductive to rudolf. either that or something about the horror of actually being in that deep depressive suicidal state.
