It's Just So Absolutely Crazy How Close Max And Daniel Got Despite The Things That Happened When They

So apparently iker and Sergio always kiss each other before every match for luck.

unfortunately, i do have oldest daughter syndrome and my only goal in life is to move far, far away

The other day I was reading Hymiskviða (the story of Thor fetching a cauldron and fishing up Jörmungandr), and there was a kenning for "boat" in it that translates to "floating-goat" and that's when I realized the phrase "whatever floats your goat" is probably not new.

I think the Glance thesis is that Lance is a dog raised by cats and George is a cat raised by dogs

Oh gosh, is it another installment of that one lil' crack AU where Lex and Clark have a baby together, unfortunately(?) for them? Nawww couldn't be. 💚

my kid is turning out just like me. well-played, karma. well-played. “Why are you like this?” Lex asks in exasperation as Superman stares intently at Experiment Thirteen through his office window. Lex didn't open it for him, so he's just floating out there with his nose and hands pressed to the glass. It is extremely irritating. He could just break the damn thing, for fuck’s sake. It’d be less annoying than the smudges he’s leaving. The window washers won’t be here ‘til Thursday. Apparently stalking is fine for sanctimonious alien boy scouts, but property damage is a bridge too far.

I wonder if my parents realize that they've already lost me. That my smiles are fake and my eyes are constantly searching for escape routes. That I'm just biding my time until I can be free of them. I wonder if they know that I was never theirs to keep.

“Sorry I'm late.”

Bruce, sighing dreamily: I miss times when little Jason wanted to be like me. He was so cute.

Dick, frowning: Man, be fr, you were his dad, yes, but not the role model. Me, from the other side? Yep, yep.

Bruce, murmuring under his breath: I find it hard to believe that any teenager would want to be more like a guy who wore the Discowing suit.

Dick, gasping: What did you say?!

Jason, sitting between them on the coach: It was Alfred.

Bruce and Dick: What.

Jason: I said, my role model was Alfred.

Bruce: But-

Jason: He taught me how to shoot. And gave me his recipe book. And I was desperate to get his sympathy, so I cleaned all the manor myself. I mean. You two were fine, but you were ridiculous — I never wanted to be like you when I grew up.

Dick: Ouch.

Alfred, smiling: The last time I rested well was when Master Jason was Robin. Needless to say, I definitely approve his attempts to make me proud.
