can you imagine the complete WHIPLASH the gods of olympus would have with post-toa apollo? apollo who's deconstructed the facade and tossed it aside? apollo who they thought they knew but are now faced with someone so strange and unfamiliar they question if they knew him at all? or did they once know him, all those years ago, but willingly forgot that part of him in favor of the front he put up? in favor of the fake because he made himself more palatable? less threatening? because remember, apollo was a beloved god, but also a silently scary god. gods quaked in his presence the first time he stepped onto olympus. why wouldn't they eagerly attach themselves to the seemingly harmless apollo, who surely is not at all dangerous anymore!
but do you see the dichotomy. the confusion. the panic, depending on which god it is?
the guilt, if it's someone close to him?
happy international ace day everyone
inho's stupid face everytime gihun gets mad at him is so funny to me
How is this so in character? 🤣 And Scott is so cute
okay this is how i think it plays out. if you could stop trying to get me with the giant hook to pull me off stage for just a minute. stiles stilinski meets The Winchesters and is like "i have GOT to make these old men cry in front of me". derek hale and castiel make miley cyrus blue eyes type of eye contact with each other, Autism Edition. peter hale swans into the room and Thing One and Thing Two (dean and sam) instinctively look behind themselves to make sure crowley isn't around. self preservation instincts. dean tells lydia that she reminds him of his friend charlie (they're both women with red hair) and she immediately diagnoses him with mommy issues and implies his dick doesn't work. scott has to crane his neck up to look sam in the eye and says "oh we don't kill people here :)" while stiles mouths "that's not true" over his shoulder. dean finds out about the time stiles got possessed and is like. Scoff. Only Once? Amateur. and stiles is like "dude why are you bragging about that". you get it.
Bruce truly hates magic with every pump and beat of his heart.
What kinda curse is Slang, anyway?
“This is the best day of my life.”
“Bro really thought he ate with that.” Bruce physically feels a full body shiver, charged with nausea and cringe. “This is level 10 cringe. Can’t have shit in Gotham.”
Dick is his earth bound angel, but he laughs like a demon at him, holding onto Jason for support, pledging his eternal loyalty to Zatana and her pettiness.

“Hey, old bat, hook me up with an adrenaline shot.”
What he wants to say is Jay, do not try and fight with 6 bullets in your stomach.
What comes out instead, through Bruce’s grit teeth and intense, fierce glaring, “Not you trying to go back to your corpse era. See how I only took 2 shots? Very demure. Very mindful.”
Jason passes out from blood loss, but mostly laughter.
—
“Chat, is this real?”
Stephanie barely bites back a full belly cackle. “I think he just asked us if we copied.”
“I wish I was Jason, 15.”
—
“This is not a slay environment. Killing is flop behavior.” He keeps his eyes shut and buries his face in his hands. Trying to convince Damian not to stab someone doesn’t seem to work.
Damian gives him a pat like he’s a pitiful cat. “I’ll only stab the non lethal areas.”
“God, I wish that were me.”
When TFW get pissed at each other, it’s not usually because one person made a wrong decision.
It’s because they didn’t all get to make the wrong decision

ITS ANOTHER LIST OF HAZBIN HOTEL FIC RECOMMENDATIONS! Specifically Alastor fics. I don't really read anything else. Also yet again, Platonic/ Non Ship fics. (All on AO3)
For the Hotels Sake by ThatMissedBullet

Alastor is actually being a good friend to Angel after a bad night.
Soft and Platonic Angel and Al. Very fluffy with angst.
When the Morningstar Take Action by Charlie_W_Hawthorn
One of my favorite Alastor Angst writers! I love all their fics.
So, this one is kinda an AU of if Lucifer was a bad person and had a really big grudge against Alastor. He's a real jerk throughout the whole thing.
Everyone gets protective of Al and I love it even if he doesn't. I 100% recommend. There's a sequel that's still updating too.

This is one about Al's Aroace-ness. Angel and Charlie ask if he and Rosie are dating. Spoiler Alert the answer is no.
Love, I'm Just A Sinner, I Can't Be A Savior by HellTeaAndBiscuits
This one is ANGSTY and has a lot of nonconsensual touching. Some of the gang learn about the deal Al made and how he's treated. BAD Lilith in this one.
Here's my first list:
episodes that i think every tv show should have:
timeloop
whodunit
musical
beach trip
random genre change (especially if it's to a noir detective thing)
one where they get randomly meta and fourth wall breaky but then never acknowledge it again
one where something happened but we as the audience don't actually get to see how it happened and only see it through the unreliable narrated flashbacks as recollected by the characters
That cursed cat Alastor thing going around is too good, it has me posting messy meme pseudoWIPs like I’m not a chronic perfectionist
Anyway, I’m desperate to know if cursed cat Alastor still owns Husk’s soul and if so, how he holds his cane? A close second was gonna be the microphone dangling from around his neck like a cowbell, but readable silhouettes won out
You have spent time creating each of your characters and yet you may realize that one of your characters seem suspiciously similar to another one of your creations. I have a few tips to help with this.
Hobbies/ Likes/ Preferences:
Maybe both of your characters speak indistinguishably, perhaps they both have the same backgrounds, or both have tempers. A little thing like giving them different favorite foods can go a long way.Â
You can put your characters in the same situation or similar ones and show the audience their different reactions. Maybe your characters seem the same but the farther you get to know them, the more you realize you were wrong. People can be the same way.
Backgrounds:
No one has the same past and life as another person (except maybe a sibling but there’s very little chance sisters and brothers are very alike). Parents are different, cultures are unalike, homes are contrasting.Â
Try giving your characters separate lives. Experiences shape personalities.Â
Make them hate each other:
As strange as it might seem, making the characters hate each other worked surprisingly well for me.Â
Maybe, over the simplest thing, they fight and argue. They might have a dark past, or there may be other causes. But arguments (even if its funny to read) distract from the similarities and cause the differences to be more prominent. Â
(And besides, it sets up a good enemies to friends subplot. But it might not work for every character. I do not advice on making to many enemy relationships.)Â
Contrast the physical appearances:
It’s just a thought, but maybe making the to people look distinctly different can divert readers attention to compare the two.Â
“If they look unalike, then they must be.”
Have them be bestest friends:
This is the opposite of another point I made but these are all suggestions, you do not have to follow any of them, but this may be something you want to try.
Just like opposites attract, people who have a lot in common also take interest in one another. Readers may think you made the pair similar on purpose. Like you were trying to have them have similar personalities.Â
(BUT do not have them exactly alike, this is just being lazy and should never happen. There are very few exceptions, and they all involve clones.)
Try again:
A very likely reason why your characters are similar is because you didn’t work on them enough. You may need to sit back down at your desk (or floor, that’s my favorite place) and try again.
Redo them completely if you must, or just add on to what you have. But if nothing that I or another person has suggested worked, then your not ready. Eventually your characters will become a perfect mess that they were destined for.Â
honestly when it comes to ladynoir i kinda eat up preconceived notions. like whenever Chat tells Ladybug a story about himself, her brain comes up with something oh-so-totally different than if she imagined it for Adrien.
like if he mentions his room? she would NEVER in a million years think of the grandiose room Adrien has in the Agreste house in the context of Chat Noir. her brain would likely come up with a dimly lit, smaller-to-average size room, probably a little messy, absolutely teeming with anime posters on the walls and a desk with a big monitor and a silly gamer chair with cat ears. just absolutely screaming personality.
and when Ladybug lets slip that she works for her parents? Chat Noir, who has been an employee of the Gabriel company for pretty much his entire cognizant life, would never have his go-to guess be his Lady being a baker’s daughter. No, his brain weirdly enough goes straight for her doing office-type work for her parents, even though she’s 14 and this makes literally no sense lol. (but he’s been extorted by his parents for his entire life so is that really shocking)
she’s always imagined he’d have siblings, but has never been able to decide if she thinks he’s the youngest or oldest
he’s always been fairly convinced she’s pretty athletic in her real life, and probably plays some sports competitively
I just love love love the idea of them being so absolutely flabbergasted when they find out bc they had all these ideas in their head they thought were on the right track and end up being beyond incorrect.
Marinette especially has her brain oh so totally shattered bc the mental image of “civilian chat noir” was so absolute in her head that when it comes out to be reserved, clean-cut Adrien she’s just like ?!?!?!?!? blue screen
