What’s Your Favorite Type Of Pizza? I Love Vesuvio Pizza, Especially When It’s Kinda Sloppy/greasy,

That awkward moment when you’re going to bed and you accidentally take your adhd medication instead of your melatonin.

-Sometimes when Cass is trying to speak, her mind will inexplicably go blank as if all the words she knows have disappeared from her brain. Every time this happens she’ll subconsciously start blinking really aggressively like she’s trying to do a hard reset on her brain while she’s trying to form a semi cohesive sentence. Dick has pretty long eyelashes and a few of them grow in weird directions in such a way that they’re tangling together and whenever he can feel it he starts blinking like that.

some of the habits different robins didnt realize came from Dick:

-Jason has kept the same stretching routine this whole time, even Dick has changed his, but Jason does the one that dick used to do in preparation for his circus act.

-When Tim taps his feet while writing out a report, he always taps out the same rhythm, the same one Dick used to do when he had to sit for long periods of time.

-Everytime Steph ties up her hair she uses a blue hair tie, they were the only ones around in the batcave when she needed one and then it became tradition for her. Dick used blue ones when he had longer hair because its his favorite color.

-Damian always rolls his right shoulder when hes standing around, he doesn't know why he does it or even notices that he does it. Dick injured his right shoulder years ago and it always needs to be stretched out or it gets stiff.

To add on to the part about Peetas name: not only he named after bread but he was also on fire with Katniss twice (being baked twice would burn bread) and he gave her the burnt bread when she was starving.

Peeta is literally the burnt bread.

Suzanne Collins is one of the few contemporary writers who realizes the importance of names in her stories and the significance they bear. They add so many layers to the story, additional meanings that otherwise would not have existed.

The original trilogy:

Katniss: named after a plant of which you can eat the roots. Her father taught her where to find it and told her that “as long as you can find yourself, you’ll survive” (quote may be a little bit off, but it’s from one of the early chapters in THG). Additionally, the leaves are in the shape of an arrowhead, referencing her skills with the bow which her father also taught her how to use.

Peeta: literally bread lmao. But bread is one of the basic nutritions humans need, a little bit goes a long way to keep you alive. Peeta’s presence in Katniss’s life also kept her alive, literally and figuratively—the burned bread he threw her in the flashback and their complicated relationship.

Primrose: a plant with medicinal purposes, even more significant in light of her work as a medic in Mockingjay.

Gale: literally means “strong wind” and considering that in every encounter with Katniss he’s caused some reaction, he pulls her into directions she maybe initially doesn’t want to go in. Additionally, his name also represents his determination and steadfastness in his beliefs.

TBOSAS

Lucy Gray: named after William Wordsworth’s poem “Lucy Gray” which is about the titular character of the poem who got lost during a blizzard. She literally got lost in snow. Rachel Zegler sang this poem in two parts on the original soundtrack of the movie. When Snow asked who the girl in the song is, Lucy answers that she’s a mystery, just like her.

Snow: aside from the obvious snow references, I think his name is most significant in relation to Lucy and the poem. The only one who knows what caused her disappearance is Snow. He is the reason that Lucy is gone. But her traces in the snow are still visible. He will always remember her because the memory of Lucy has manifested itself in every part of his life.

Coriolanus: named after the Roman general (and also the titular character of Shakespeare’s play), Coriolanus wanted to attack Rome and become its ruler. He was scorned and celebrated by the people, only to be later exiled from the city by them. In TBOSAS, Coriolanus is the star pupil at the Capitol’s academy but sent into exile to the districts after he won the Games with Lucy through cheating.

Volumnia: Coriolanus mother who played a part in his ascent to power. In TBOSAS, she almost serves like a mentor to Coriolanus, teaching him how to think in terms of power.

(Edit) Sejanus: a roman soldier who was betrayed by the roman emperor Tiberius, just like the future president betrayed him.

(Edit) Plinth: got this info from here, but it was too good not to include here. A plinth is a base for a statue or vase to stand on. After Sejanus’s death, all of the Plinth fortune was given to Snow for being such a good to friend him. It was this money that skyrocketed the Snow family from poverty to filthy rich. The Plinth money was the foundation upon which Snow built his power.

There are so many other names that have historical (mostly Roman and Greek) connotations—Plutarch, Seneca, Cinna—but also regular names like Trinket and Beetee bear meanings that represent the character beautifully.

Names are important. For any lover of literature or (aspiring) writers, please look closely at them. They can shape your story into something unique.

Feel free to correct me if I’ve said something wrong. I know there are many names missing, but I can only add so many examples ✊🏻😔

I have two small ones:

The first one is a tiny gash that sits between the bottom of my nose and the corner of my mouth but it doesn’t touch either of them. I got it as a baby from rolling off of my older sister’s bed and smashing a plastic box with my face.

The second one is from being bitten by a tick (and it wasn’t even one of the fun ones that give you diseases!)

i think its funny how facial scars are seen as like a major character plot point where they reveal that someone tried to kill their dad or something when i know a ton of ppl (including myself) who have facial scars bc they rlly arent uncommon and all of them are like. from tripping and falling as a toddler

Same lol

This could be fun. I scored 11. How about you?

They would definitely do this.

I was at Costco yesterday and I walked by a man chanting under his breath to himself very intensely, "I'm not a homewrecker. I'm not a homewrecker. I'M NOT A HOMEWRECKER."

It felt like too unique of an experience for me not to steddify it immediately.

Anyways, Eddie sees Steve and Robin at the grocery store and assumes they're together because they're sharing a cart and bickering over their household groceries like a married couple, but he still finds Steve so attractive.

Steve catches him staring and throws him a flirty wink and a cute little finger wiggle back.

Which causes Eddie to sprint away, verbally reminding himself that he cannot hit on taken men, much to Steve and Robin’s great amusement.

What if there is a world where Jack and Janet swapped, and who got the coma, etc.?

I mostly thought of this cuz I had an amusing thought at work that goes something like this: Ra's: "Your father must have quite the man, Timothy. With just how perfectly you turned out. " Tim: "No, I got it from my mother. And if you know what's best for you, stay away from her. " ---Time Skip--- Janet walks into Wayne Manor: "Timothy, what have I told you about letting your stuff lie about in its improper place?" Tim: "Not, too, Mother. I'm sorry for being so thoughtless." Janet hands Tim a suspicious jar: "I'll be merciful this time; your surgery is booked for tomorrow, so make sure to get your affairs in order." Janet turns to Damien and hands him a card. "This is out of courtesy, child. Make sure not to repeat the mistake. Either of you." She eyes Jason and Damien. "And Mr. Grayson, your thin ice too, for the attempted hospitalization of my Timomothy." And with that, she walks back out. Bruce hesitantly asks: "Tim... Why did Janet hand Damien a sorry for your loss card?" Tim: "Well, since I now have my spleen in the jar, Bruce, I'm pretty sure Ra's is dead."

If Stucky during CA:TWS was a song it would be Järnspöken by kent.

And here’s a comprehensive list of why I think so:

1. Järnspöken literally translates to The Iron Ghost(s) which works because Bucky has a metal arm and Steve thinks he’s dead (Bucky is the iron ghost).

2. The whole song has a theme of coming back to the place you used to call home, only to find that it’s changed while you were gone.

3. Some of the lyrics literally translate to:

“I don’t remember why, but maybe that’s the reason why I remember it so clearly.

Your big eyes, your brown hands, your sharp knees.”

4. Some other lyrics translate to:

“Someone’s laying in the grass with frosted over clothes, so still and white.

And the blue lights are blinking, imagine what you could do with a small knife.

And I don’t know why but I always return to this place.

It must’ve been something we did, something we said here that changed my life.”

5. The last two lyrics translate to:

Was it you I saw, like a shadow from my dreams?

Was it you I saw, you I swore to never forget?

Was it you I saw, like a ghost out of dead dreams?

Was it you I saw, did I finally manage to forget?”

If Loki had any kind of pet he would definitely make them some little golden horns. Just imagine him shaping some tinfoil and spray painting it gold to put on his pet cat, or someone else's cat like Bucky's to mess with him.
