Plot Twist, Your Title Was Incorrectly Translated From The Latin By An Unpaid Intern Too Busy Stressing

I made a new ship.

Nim Pianna and Arla Fett. Started a fic (You’re Safe) with that pairing on ao3… and I think it’s a completely new tag, I came up with the ship months ago while reading How a Romance Novel Saved the Galaxy by Ariana Deralte (ArianaDeralte), but… yeah. Thoughts?

So Jason is defo Lians emergency contact if Roy isnt available

And I'd like to think that the school administration just assumes they're together and just arent married yet

And Lian will do nothing to fight these rumors if anything she encourages them

Arla Fett is rescued from a Death Watch transport by a tiny Padawan Kenobi and adopts him on the spot, unilaterally deciding that she will be accompanying her boi on all missions in order to loom ominously behind him during negotiations and eliminate any perceived threats to his safety (and happiness) with prejudice

she ignores Qui-Gon Jinn's existence entirely

I love me a pseudo-historical arranged marriage au but it always nudges my suspension of disbelief when the author has to dance around the implicit expectation that an arranged marriage should lead to children, which a cis gay couple can't provide.

I know for a lot of people that's irrelevant to what they want from an Arranged Marriage plot, but personally I like playing in the weird and uncomfortable implications.

So, I've been thinking about how you would justify an obviously barren marriage in That Kind of fantasy world, and I thought it'd be interesting if gay marriage in Ye Old Fantasy Land was a form of soft disinheritance/abdication.

Like, "Oh, God, I don't want to be in this position of power please just find me a boy to marry", or, "I know you should inherit after you father passes but as your stepmother/legal guardian I think it'd make more sense if my kids got everything, so maybe consider lesbianism?", or "Look, we both know neither of our families has enough money to support that many grandkids, so let's just pair some spares and save both our treasuries the trouble".

Obviously this brings in some very different dynamics that I know not everyone would be pinged by, but I just think it'd be neat.

i came up rough housing with a bunch of my cousins, all of whom were either older or bigger than i. my roommate has nicknamed me 'stabby duckling'. i am known in my dorm as that weird recluse who will threaten oddly specific violence on behalf of anyone who shows me a scrap of care and affection, and knows more about body disposal than any of them. (not a very high bar, tbf.)

you know what they say about stopped watches and occasional accuracy.

Your are the monarch of a historical/fantasy kingdom, who perished many years ago and your name is only written down in recorded history, know only to future generations.

Out of the 130 options in the picker wheel here (all are gender neutral),

And yes: there is a 'no epithet' option in there.

I got The Oathtaker.

My friend’s little brother (non-verbal) used to hide people’s shoes if he liked the person, because it meant they had to stay longer. The more difficult it was to find your shoes, the more he liked you.

One day my cousin came over, and she was a bitch. When it was time to leave, my friend’s brother handed her shoes directly to her and she went on and on about how he must have a crush on her because he only “helped” her.

the :) AO3 gives you after telling you you’ve already left kudos on a particular fic is my archenemy because what do you mean :) ? what do you mean I’ve already left kudos here? have you read my favorite author’s work? look me in the eyes and tell me one kudos is enough. I’d give them a thousand kudos and my kidney plus my firstborn. what do you mean I can only give them one kudos??????

the thing I find charming about the jedi apprentice books is the absolute dedication to giving obi wan a taster of literally every other character's personal trauma.

oh you were a child slave? yeah that happened to him. you had to kill someone you cared about to protect innocent lives? yeah he did that at like 13. you were forced to lead children into battle as a child yourself? obi wan did that. you had to live on the run from all factions of a planet torn by civil war? that happened to obi wan like three times.

also as an adult he never once mentions any of this. icon behaviour.

Reblog to hug prev poster (they need a hug)

Bruce learning all his children's favourite meals and being able to cook them to near perfection

Bruce learning all the native languages of his children, occasionally speaking to them in their mother tongue when it's just the two of them

Bruce herding all of them out of a gala at the slightest inclination one of them want to leave

Bruce and Robin or Batgirl stopping for ice cream at one of the 24 hour kiosks after patrol

Bruce giving every homeless person cash and a WE card, calling one of his agents whenever he spots a child living on the streets

Batman being a regular at a few spots, staring menacingly at the underpaid worker while waiting for his order, before stuffing the tip jar

Bruce making sure none of his bad publicity rubs off on his children and standing up for them no matter the situation

Soft Bruce Wayne...
