Trying To Sing Along P.R.O.T.E.C.T.T.R.A.N.S.K.I.D.S By Cheap Dirty Horse But My Spelling Is So Bad I

no (well meaning family member), I’m not fine, no there wasn’t a specific thing that set me off, no it’s not about you, no there is nothing you can do to help, please leave me alone with my dark room, weighted blanket, fidget and music. hope this clarifies!

You are a very cool person to interact with (I’m running out of things to say oml my brain is freezing I have my first gcse tomorrow excuse that lack of people skills 😂)

Hello I have a desire to talk to a normal person for a bit because literally most of my friends and myself go to a private school and it’s like fuck you mean lunch is lamb falafel or roast gamon? What? And like the more I look at my life I go what the fuck guys? (Also most of their only knowledge of the current situation comes through heavily conservative parents and I would not trust them not to vote tory) so like ??? What do I do ?? Because they do the subjects I want to do for a level there for sixth form but I could also go be among normal people at the college in town at the cost of English lit a level and a mean asf chem a level teacher and I’m getting very off topic so hello can we interact please lol?

Mate

Lets go get some bloody chips, then we can go graffiti shit and fuckin' put arson to the govern's. Then you can tag with me and my mates

(IM SORRY YOU GET FUCKIN LAMB??? -mod)

tfw when you were raised so neurotypical the only times u let yourself actually feel to a full extent is a) around friends who would never tell my family b) out in the forest alone and c) in a dream

so like… tamlin

no, this isn’t me talking about how he was done so mfing dirty and i would defend him, BUT

He plays FIDDLE

not violin

like there’s a difference between a posh traditional ballroom music (no hate to violinists) and the inherent community that comes with folk music (the fiddle is a folk instrument) and like it’s not a big thing

but

tamlin was the son of a high lord he hated

he’d do the more ‘common’ instrument out of spite, out of defiance, out of something to separate himself from them and pull himself closer to the common people who he likely preferred being around

because folk music is something to dance to! It encourages community, it would be done at taverns and town squares, in festivals for people who wouldn’t hear ballroom music, much less attend fancy balls or soirées for violin music

and there’s something there

something something being taught a more common style of music by maybe a more common person (because folk is an incredibly oral and aural tradition, more passed down than written down) in defiance to a high lord and high society who gave him an instrument that they want used for ‘proper’ and fancy music

another Gothamite Headcannon because why not?

they are always looking out for each other. And I mean always. (Unless you’re shit, then you will be collectively rejected and, in their words, ‘hung out for the bats’ (in other words: no one will help you now, just hope it’s Batman and not Red Hood))

however this intense (and warranted) protection leads to misunderstandings between Gotham and other cities. A few examples follow:

Gotham thoughts: they brought a knife to our date? They must want me to know they’re ready to protect me! I mean I can protect myself but it’s super sweet!

anyone else: why do they have a knife?! Should I be worried?!

and continuing that with a gas mask (they want to make sure I have an updated one for when I need it!/are they planning a gas attack or in league with someone bad?!) and so many other stuff is the reason the Gotham residents, heard wearing but sweethearts have such a bad rep. That and the people who have been ‘hung out for the bats’

being gender fluid is very fun today, like yes I’m in a cropt halter top and tight trousers, yes I’m wearing makeup, yes I’m feeling he/they, like I get it all rn

These are the opinions that make me go ‘and I would love to say ‘I will not elaborate but unfortunately I have adhd and am incapable of shutting the fuck up, so listen’ just because ash and yut lung had a similar situation does not make them similar! Yut lung is a type of antithesis for ash and the fact that he spent the whole time in the show fighting for an identity outside his brothers only to be reduced in fandom to a ‘worse ash’ is tragic in this essay I will-

"yut lung is just ash without an eiji" you are insufferable and wrong

I will always defend Ao3 for this don’t anyone give me ‘but they’re just not as good’ yes they are and I will die on this hill

(Note: fanfic can be as good as professional fiction but it does not have to be! If you want to write then write, it’s good enough for the archive :D)

reblog if you’ve read fanfictions that are more professional, better written than some actual novels. I’m trying to see something

ok so I just watched across the spider verse (ik I’m late) but I had a fanfic idea pop into my head after it finished. Yk that scene where miles-1610 says ‘you don’t have to be the prowler’ and aaron-42 says ‘I’m not’ and we cut to a shot of miles-42? It sprung up from that. In dc (yes this is turning into a slight crossover) there’s a gang called the red hoods and I remember laughing at one point because Jason Todd as a child said he’d never be a red hood (in rhato- pre rebirth I think) so like imagine a scene where a Jason Todd from another world (in the place of miles-1610) is talking to a Willis Todd and saying like ‘you don’t have to be a red hood’ and we have a shot of the red hood/jason todd like does someone see my vision?

Also if i said Hobie is Percy?'I'm not a hero because calling yourself a hero makes you self-mythologizing',blue aesthetic,punk,the cool oldest experienced member of the mcs,gender swag,his whole attitude?????

YES! Ok you’re an objectively cool person, like this comparison isn’t one I see often but I love it and after watching atsv with the characters still running around my brain, I thought of this! Man did not give up godhood to have no one know he’s anti-establishment (and punk) and all the points I could make here!
