I do not like having jingly keychains, but I like that my father does. His chain has the car keys, a Swiss army knife, a longer Swiss Army knife, a small metal Captain America shield, and a few other trinkets that he wears in his belt loop with one of those big clips (the metal ones for rock climbing- carabiners).
Anyway my dad has been wearing that specific set of trinkets for my entire life. It is not loud but because of the trinkets it makes a very specific jingle.
So when my brother and I got lost at a Disney park during one of your extended family vacations (25 people is a lot and very easy to be overlooked), we tracked down the rest of our family by walking around the general area in a circle to hear down the different streets until we heard it. All the way from the opposite end of the street and around a corner.
We got back to them fast enough that nobody knew of our little crisis and all because of my Dad’s obnoxious key chain.
having a little jingly keychain is all fun and games, until you’re walking around somewhere that’s dead quiet…..like oh i’m sorry i just my trinkets are jangling around……n suddenly your the court jester and everyone is pointing and laughing at you for your noisey fucking keychain…..bobo the clowncore
Scenario: Marinette is kidnapped for some reason or another and is taken to the business the kidnappers use as a front; that just so happens to be a restaurant:
Kidnapper: you’re out numbered and there is nothing you can do about it!
Marinette, no miraculous and armed with only a meat tenderizer and egg beater: I’m about to prove this bitch wrong.
"The baker girl".
This is how people like Chloé or Gabriel have been referring to Marinette in a mean and mocking way throughout the seasons, as if this was something she should be ashamed of.
The fact that her Lucky Charm turned out to be a baker's peel and she used it to beat the crap out of Monarch is so symbolic and powerful.
keeping this as a reminder whenever i feel like my writing isn’t good enough
Ladybug: (vaulting behind a crate while an explosion occurs) Okay time for plan G.
Red Hood: Don’t you mean plan B?
Ladybug: We are well past plan B, we skipped over plan C due to Nightwing getting knocked unconscious.
Red Robin: What about plan D?
Ladybug: Plan D was that desperate disguise attempt half an hour ago where Robin and I make out as a distraction.
Robin: (still sitting stunned in the corner muttering) She kissed me? She- she actually kissed…
Ladybug: And I’m not doing plan E, because that involves a level of property damage that I’m not okay with.
Red Hood: (readies an explosive) I’m prepared to make that sacrifice!
This will be going in age and highlighting what I feel is sort of the core source of tension between Bruce and his various ‘kids’, it’s not exhaustive, but it covers the biggest glowing red spot I feel, now, from oldest to youngest!
Dick: Dick is the favorite, but this basically just means he gets picked for the toughest battles, is held tot he most insanely high standard and is otherwise the one Bruce leans on the most and that is a crushing weight.
Cassandra: Cass is the one he projects onto, this means they get along, but also means he’s constantly undermining her physical and mental health & making her life worse because its what he does to himself and won’t let her be her own person.
Jason: Jason, be he alive, dead or ressurected is probably the one Bruce is most comfortable loving, but understands the absolute least, no matter his state he does not know what Jason needs, was, or will do at any given moment.
Stephanie: Steph isn’t his kid but he made her Robin; I’d say he is very fond of her, but that he ultimately resents her more than any of the others, because she reminds him of Jason, because she won’t yield and that this motivates his abuse of her.
Timothy: Tim is the one he identifies with most, not projects onto, not the favorite, but the one who he looks at and goes, “Oh its me”, likely cos of their similar class, which causes him to try and make Tim more like him at Tim’s expense.
Duke: Duke is tricky cos I don’t know of any major fallout between them, but based on what I’ve read I would say he puts perhaps the most pressure on Duke, he ‘sees great things in him’ and so piles on the expectations till the breaking point.
Damian: This was hard for the source of it is simple, I honestly feel Damien is the one he is the least invested or connected with. He’ll acknowledge Damien as his son, but he won’t put any real effort into the relationship unless its impacting him.
Dick being zen and jason being jason:
Batman, dividing everyone up for patrol- Jason, you're with Steph, Damian, you're coming with me, Dick, you're with Cass. Tim, are you fine going solo?
Tim- Yup
Jason- Oh, come on! Why does he get to go solo?
Batman- Your brother gets to go solo because he doesn't have a kill count.
Jason- Oh, he SO does
Tim, whispering- It doesn't count if he doesn't find the bodies
“Hey, it’s okay. You’re safe now.”

Jason: Have you ever thought about what it'd be like to look God in the face and call them a bitch?
Plagg, sitting up from where he was laying: Marinette says it to me every day.
Marinette: It's true. Plagg, you're a bitch.
Jason: Pft.
Jango: I mean, if I went around sayin’ I was Mand’alor just because some aruetii had lobbed a beskad at me they’d put me away!
Satine: Shut up! Will you shut up!
Jango: Ah, now we see the violence inherent in the system.
Satine: Shut up!
Jango: Oh! Come and see the violence inherent in the system! HELP! HELP! I’m being repressed!
Several years later…
Jango: -and that was how I lost my Mandalorian citizenship.
Boba: wtf dad.
