When someone says they like Batman and you have to slowly find out if it’s “Batman is super cool and I like the few movies I saw” like or “here are all the robins and my top 16 or smth of all the kids” like
I would love to be able to drink regular coffee but it affects me pretty intensely (being so buzzed that I physically cant sleep for at least the next 24 hours) and it makes me feel pretty sick right away.
Usually I steer clear of all caffeinated coffee (tea and soft drinks are fine for some reason??? I think its the concentration) and drink decaf which I don't even like much anyway :(
Would I be able to use this as a prompt for a fic? I am having a vision and I think I'm seeing your vision
Klance as if "pining loser X cool guy" except both of them think the other is the cool one
straigbt up "under it" and by "it" well lets jusr say, my blankeys
Disclaimers: I cannot stress enough that I am not at all trying to tell you what to write, these are just some concepts / prompts. - My title does not mean that your more lovey-dovey scenes are unrealistic, I just couldn't think of how to title this - Some of these are scenes that have been used in my writing, so if by the off chance you are using any of these, please don’t copy the dialogue word for word. :}
ROMANTIC -
1) When both of them are cuddling / holding hands and one of them starts sweating.
★ “Ugh! I love you, but I don’t love all this sweat you produce!” “But it’s my love for you seeping out of my pores!” “I couldn't care less what it is. Off!” “Fine, your majesty.”
2) Each character hating their mother in law / partners mother
★ “Mom is asking to visit.” “And do what?” “I’m not sure, check up on everyone?” “She can check up her own ass for the stick I know she’s lost up there.”
★ “Well, your mother is no saint.” “She never claimed to be!” “Uh-huh, and when has mine?” “Circa-” “Okay! Truce?” “Truce.”
3) Character X bringing up a pet peeve they have with Character Y at a family gathering.
★ “Character Y does this one thing when they eat- they never scoop up their food with their fork, they’ll just attack it! Sometimes I can’t stand it.” “You never told me that bothered you?” “It didn’t bother me enough to mention it.” “Not until a family dinner?” “I didn’t mean anything negative by it-” **cue Character Y aggressively attacking their food with their fork** “Okay, I get it! We’ll talk later.”
4) Character X and Character Y bake with each other, except realistically.
★ “Character X, why are your arms wrapped around me?” “Because I love you.” “I love you too but I also love being able to actually mix the ingredients together.”
★ “Get the eggs!” “You told me to stop buying eggs because ‘inflation will kill us all’.” “I wasn’t wrong but, UGH-! I need eggs!” “Well I got them anyway, but still.”
★ “Stop touching things!” “How am I supposed to bake without touching anything?!” “You aren’t!”
5) Planning lies they'll tell in 5 years when people ask how they met.
★ "What if we say that we were playing bumper cars and I hit you so hard I fell into your car?" "Hmm.. how about we say that I was going to my best friends wedding and I was all down and glum, but a friend of mine told me to 'have some fun' and that maybe I'd meet someone special at the wedding, and that's when I saw you. You and a little yellow umbrella that I've seen in so many places before, and we just talked about our past together?" "I think that's been done before." "By who?" "One of the most popular rom-coms ever aired."
★ "We could say I saved you from-" "I'm gonna stop you right there." "Fine. What's your idea then, if you're so smart?" "We tell them we met in a psychiatric ward." "Wow. Exquisite thinking." "Just imagine the looks on their faces!"
PLATONIC / ROMANTIC -
6) Those moments where neither party can decide on something so they do nothing, only for them both to yell out what they want and it coincidentally be an agreement.
★ “What do you want for dinner?” “I’m not sure, what do you want?” “I dunno.” **cue them both lazing around, doing nothing for minutes** “Spaghetti.” “It’s like you can read my mind.”
7) Character X asking Character Y how their day went, and Character Y just breaks down in tears- not because their day was bad, but just because Character X asked.
★ “Hi, how was work?” **cue ‘ugly’ sobbing** “Oh no, was it really that bad?” “No- It just- It was just- sweet to- ask-”
8) Stuff that should be awkward really not being awkward at all.
★ “Did you just fart?” “Yeah.” “Okay, good.” “‘Good’?” “Good that it’s not a gas leak.” “Yeah, I had to force it out a little bit.” "So definitely not a leak." "Definitely not."
p.s. Your writing is captivating as always suga, and I am abidingly proud of you and your work. <3

Spoke to a gen z person the other night and apparently the young folks don't know about the very legal sites from which you can access public domain media (including Dracula, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, and other Victorian gothic horror stories)?
Like this young person didn't even know about goddamn Gutenberg which is a SHAME. I linked to it and they went "aw yiss time to do a theft" and I was like "I mean yo ho ho and all that, sure, but. you know gutenberg is entirely legal, right?"
Anyway I'm gonna put this in a few Choice Tags (sorry dracula fans I DID mention it though so it's fair game) and then put some Cool Links in a reblog so this post will still show UP in said tags lmao.
Bruce gets knocked over the head with a lead pipe and without even looking at eachother dick and Tim start circling around him making tweeting noises
Meanwhile bruce wishes the hit actually knocked him out so he didn’t have to witness his kids acting like this
Affirmation for writers, please!!
Likes do nothing!!
PREACH!
I love the platonic relationships between Dick and the other members of the batfam. Dick loves so thoughroghly and I love when its portrayed as swallowing him whole, his love drowns him.
His dynamic with Bruce, the anger, the trust and the love.
His dynamic with Jason, the guilt, the relief and the love he has for him
His dynamic with Tim, the pride, the trust and love.
His dynamic with Damian is by far one of my favourites as it has the guilt of 'replacing' Bruce as the father figure while he was stuck in the time stream, it has the unbridled pride in who Damian has turned into, it has the implicit trust that comes from working together as Batman and Robin. (I am ill for these two I love them so much)
His dynamic with Steph and the development of it when Bruce is in the timestream is also really precious to me, because that's his Batgirl.
The most common denominator is the love that he holds for them all, that is his family. He will be damned if he loses them again and he loves with his whole being.
I dont know enough about his relationship with Cass or Duke to properly talk about it yet :(
(I love Dick Grayson sosososo much)
it pains me whenever people seem to think all love is romantic love, or that romantic love automatically means the love for each other is greater. Platonic love that is so great- overwhelming until it fills every corner and crevice of your heart- makes me sick. whenever fic authors potray the insane amount of love that Dick holds for Damian- more so than he holds for the others- drives me crazy. The fact that Dick would do anything, kill and hurt and die and come back, just for Damian screws with me so badly simply because i know some will take them as romantic. But in reality, Dick literally just loves Damian so much. like thats his baby and you take it romantically :( they just make me so sad and miserable but they can cure me all at once
