will forever mourn the fact we have not gotten (nor will we ever I suppose) baby hotchner in his first year of the bau. he's big tough intimidating suit man. but what about when he was (even more) insecure and trying hard to fit into the role of profiler and using his fancy little suits as his stupid shield and to make people take him extra seriously
I need rossi to call him son and tell him he did a good job but also hotch being wary about a new father figure in his life. but also hotch Needing advice from rossi or gideon and not knowing how to ask because he's been independent in his career / life for so long but he yearns to see rossi as his mentor because now he's part of a close-ish knit team now
hotch, pointing at rossi: you're my dad boogie woogie woogie
Clown and Branzy Both have this strange mindset of "my teammates dont really like me and they're just keeping me around because they need something from me" so when they team up in S3 its a very interesting situation where Both are trying to prove to each other that "I'm a vital part of this team. please dont leave me." (especially since Branzy betrays his old team and has no where else to go and Clown... really only temporarily had a team for the end fight? and then everyone split up and Left Him and hes been so Alone this season. he misses the MOB.)
Clown thinks people only stay with him for his pvp strength and reputation and Branzy thinks people only team with him out of pity and his redstone abilities.
eventually they realize they both actually care about each other and stick together from then on, even when they aren't officially on the same team :]

I see a lot of “Bruce accidentally uses his Batman Voice during a regular business meeting and freaks everyone out” but I haven’t seen much of this trope’s counterpart: “Batman acidentally zoning out durnig another JL meeting and when he’s asked a question responds with his Brucie persona and freaks everyone the FUCK out”
We failed as a society when everyone stopped wearing headphones.
listen I’ve seen people talking about intimidating pig techno in hermitcraft following grian around and simply being explained as ‘oh that’s tech’ but consider also the opposite: friendly chaotic winged grian following intimidating pig techno around the dsmp calling him ‘tech’ and only being explained as 'that’s grain’

Since Circe was a sorceress and could do magic & shit, and Reyna was at Circe's Island aswell, Reynard could've technically learnt magic there.
What if Reyna had learnt magic with Circe, but it was just very hard to control and very dangerous, so she can only do it with Hylla ( who was older at the time and so had better control of the magic)
Imagine Hylla visiting Camp Jupiter and forcing Reyna to use the magic she hasn't used in years, slowly building up in power .
Imagine Reyna just being tired of Legionarres and turning them into animals by accident, or when everyone is shouting in a senate meeting - silencing everyone without realising.
The Wayne manor is not a quiet place.
Someone Is always doing something, talking about anything, teasing, bantering, playfully slandering, so Bruce grew accustomed to noise. Its hard not to, with his nest of birds.
But this particular topic has him on mute;
"Why do YOU get him when he's old?"
" Oh my GOD, Jason, I'm LITERALLY the oldest. You ALWAYS have to get everything!"
Jason isn't at all interested in Dick's dramatics. He wraps all 6'4 inches around Bruce's leg like an affectionate leech. "You're the fucking meanest! You'll probably feed B those gross ass protein shakes and force him to watch re runs of Realest Housewives of Gotham!"
"YOU TRIED TO BLOW HIM UP!"
Cass is strong like a tsunami and silent as a snake, jumping on Bruce's back, beautiful eyes full of threat. " Dad stays. Mine."
Bruce pipes up, " I have a retirement plan--"
"Getting railed everyday at the Kent farm isn't a retirement!"
Tim gives Steph a look of disgust. "Gross."
Damian isn't above pulling out his swords. " If I don't get Baba, everyone is dying. Me included. "
"Damian. What did I say about threatening your siblings with murder?" Bruce asks expectantly.
" Oh, I'm not threatening, baba. I'm making a vow."
Alfred doesn't pry his attention from the chamomile tea he's preparing. " Master Bruce stays with me."
"...Alfred, I don't think you'll...You know, be around when Bruce retires--"
"Was that a contradiction?"
They all gulp. The argument is settled quickly, and Bruce spends the rest of his evening with head on Alfred's lap and his hand in Jason's hair, petting like a cat, and listening to RHOG on the TV.
He loves the noise.
Such a slut for Bruce calling his kids pet names regardless of where they are. He called a fully grown Dick his baby on TV. He called Jason sweetheart while they were Batman and Red Hood. He called Tim honey in a meeting. He called Cass princess at ballet practice. He called Damian habibi in front of the League. I mean, who’s gonna stop him? The media loves that shit, criminals and goons are too afraid of Batman and Red Hood to do anything, the executives value their jobs too much, the single mothers love a dilf and the League know better than to fuck with Bruce and Damian.
If you're a slut for that, I'm the whole damn whorehouse - ENDEARMENTS FOR FAMILY MEMBERS MY BELOVED,,, no no no because this feels me with warmth your mind is SOOOOOO HUGE
Omg Dick would be so flustered because you just KNOW the others tease him endlessly by ONLY referring to him as " baby" for a month straight. The titans too. He cannot escape it
I have a feeling that Jason and Damian would pull the " knock it off, Im too old for that!" card, but Bruce couldn't give two fucks bc he knows they secretly love it; especially damian who's so moved and touched by being called someone's 'love'
- him, not a monster but not a child; not darkness but not light. Bruce quickly shots that shit down and FIERCELY argues that Damian is love because he's strong.
Duke is pumpkin and stephanie is lovebug, he told me specifically- also the league can't say shit bc it's so adorable to witness. I bet they're happy to know there's a heart inside that suit
there are a lot of fics out there where sirius is super dramatic when finding out about jegulus and not enough fics where he is genuinely hurt that james lied to him
especially the ones where remus knows, lies to his face about it, AND thinks it’s funny? sirius almost never reacts appropriately enough for me
Reyna, Coach Hedge and Nico are the most underrated trio, don’t even talk to me
tiktok teen lgbts would not survive in the 80s and 90s when lesbians called gay guys fags lovingly and gay guys would call us dykes lovingly
