From a discussion on Discord: Batman is into BDSM, but he can't turn off being Batman, much to Selina's aggravation. He can slip out of any shibari, he's got countermeasures for sensory deprivation, he can somehow shut off his pain receptors if she whips him, it's just exhausting.

Almost every reason someone submits for why the Joker can be a threat to non-Batman heroes could also be applied to Jar Jar Binks if we just have the courage.

Jar Jar is pretty much exactly what tends to trip up Thrawn in canon.

He's a massive outlier for his culture/species and has a mix of cowardice and good intentions that along with his clumsiness means there's no predicting what he'll do or what will result.

I think Jar Jar could beat Thrawn because there are some things cold order simply cannot contain or plan for.

Weiss and Roman forging a bond, to Ruby's horror, over their mutual appreciation of the finer things and being able to identify the difference between the authentic article and a knockoff.

[SMUT] A new update for Monstergirls of the Kingdom, where a new TotK character gets to experience me playing fast and loose with the fusion mechanic, but... hey, it's porn. We can play around with things!

YANG: Oh wow, this is totally about me and Blake! If we were dudes!

logging on to AO3

Ruby and Yang see what's generally going on between Pyrrha and Jaune, but in a way warped by their personalities
Weiss can't imagine what you're implying, "what's going on" Preposterous!
Blake sees Ren offering Jaune a pen in class and her eyebrows start waggling and her imagination starts going...

Neo fights Weiss to trade a few blows and then holds up a sign saying "Mid" and ditches as a sputtering Weiss absolutely loses her mind over the insult. Swears bloody vengeance and will spare no expense in trying to destroy her. Only for Neo to call her mid again.

My contribution: Nora gets weepy at slasher films because they're a genre about a guy who gets so close to achieving his goals, only to see it all fall apart at the last minute. One day, Jason will get his win. She believes in him!

A pissed off Blake declares that it's false advertising to call a movie "the slashening" and not have any implied or overt M/M content

Made me realize that the partner ships (Bumblebee, White Rose, Arkos, Renora) are all mostly along snob/slob lines. But it could be a fruitful line to pair by horror movies Ren and Pyrrha really enjoying Nosferatu while Yang and Ruby have sister time with The Slashening 4: In Space

I'm now picturing Taiyang giving a Dwight Schrute-esque breakdown of how he would have countered the Chainsaw Maniac and treating it like a teachable lesson for Yang if she ever finds herself under attack by Surprise Chainsaws

Yang and Blake was the contrast I was actually thinking of, with Yang into super lowbrow blood and tits horror and Blake into "the greatest horror is the emptiness of indifference/capitalism" and their relationship gets tested on movie night.

I could see Ruby being really into splatter stuff, especially stuff with fancy practical effects. Could be a cute White Rose fic of Ruby getting her girlfriend to indulge in her less-formal side and enjoy a movie where a guy gets his head pulled off by The Creature

Wanna get some headcanons and gut opinions. Team JNPR and Team RWBY watching horror movies—who can't stand them, what kind of horror movies might they watch, and would the teams be able to watch a movie together without tearing into each other?

This is absolutely delightful and a testimony to fanfic's ability to just go "Eh, why _not_ mash two things together?" and see it work out.

Post a new fic on FFN and immediately getting the AI spam messages is a good reminder that, no matte what happens economically, AI is a naturally fit for spamming and even if the bubble "bursts" the tech will have a permanent backstop in spam marketing—it's not going away.

all i got is this

Been a while since I posted a SFW fic, but never too late to post a new one! "Unbreakable Armor, Unstoppable Hammer," a story about Nora and Pyrrha's friendship, Pyrrha's angst, and Nora solving problems through blunt force and violence.

SonaTech is basically the German Engineering of Remnant: meticulous precision, high quality, but, like Pyrrha, is about specializing in a focused point of truly exceptional quality when what the world really needs is factories that crank out 6,000 tons of bullets, the hell if 2% of them don't fire.

Something in my fics is that I like giving Pyrrha sponsorships and licensing deals. My go-to sponsor is SonaTech, a company that sells dust ammunition, but I'm trying to think of other things Team Nikos might pick up—for instance, when she's older, I definitely see athletic wear and a fragrance.

Every time I get an email from Paypal about POS fees, I know it means "Point of Sale," but I invariably read it as, "Hey, dirtbag! Wanna save some money on the fees we charge for being a piece of shit?"

I'm just a poor old man in rags begging for scraps, who would certainly only be a minor amusement if you let me try and string the great bow nobody else has the strength to string...

When fields of grain reach the peak of their ripeness, golden, amber waves that ripple across the well-tended lands of farmers, great landowners and freeholders both, the call for laborers is heard across the land. Men of strong backs and gleaming scythes, paid for their labor in the gleaning of their harvest, descend upon the fields, a singular force that severs the once-proud stalks, sending leaf and seed both tumbling to the ground, the tumbling weight of the seed bringing joy to farmer as it fell from its height. So too did Pyrrha descend upon her enemies, blade flashing in great sweeps that sent all scattering before her. Her flashing blade became a spear point, deadly in its precision, to harrow her foes in their flight.

Sadly, it's not that good and really doesn't help the fic, but here's the excerpt in question

Shield of Achilles - Wikipedia

Homer spent 130 lines of Book 18 detailing what was on the Shield of Achilles
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shield_...

I take criticism like a fisherman, venturing into the wine-dark sea, casting his net full of hope for, his family's prosperity ever in his mind, only to find himself ensnared to a whale, a great sea-monster whose strength tears the net and dashes his hopes.

So did Sokal hear your words.

I'm intending to post a fic this week, but editing is proving difficult in that I have a bit that is objectively bad, does not work for the pacing or tone of the story, and will not connect with any of my readers. However, it does connect with me and I am an enormous child, so... it'll take a minute

Gonna make a Ruby RP account and have her challenge other RP accounts to Rock Paper Scissors. She has no interest in discussing anything else, this is her current fixation.
