What About ‘far Too Young To Die, Far Too Old To Live.’ For The Fic Ask Game?

What about ‘far too young to die, far too old to live.’ For the fic ask game?

Definitely Tim! A study of his non-aging and how so much has happened to him yet he's not allowed to pass his teen years. He's eighteen and hey, his little brother is fourteen now. Remember when he was six years younger than him? Tim was sixteen for, um, fifteen years? He thinks? He's seen countless of his loved ones die and move on and age and grow and he's eighteen. He's eighteen and he can't die, it won't let him die, they will not let him die, but they won't let him live either, and he's so so tired. He's so tired, but he's Robin! (He. He left Robin behind didn't he? Isn't Damian Robin? Why are there two Robins? Why did he go back?) Robin doesn't give up. Robin doesn't die, except when he did and she did and he did and he did and wow, Tim's the only one that hasn't died? Maybe he wants to die. Maybe he doesn't want to be Robin. Maybe he wants to be Nightwing or Batgirl or- or, maybe even Batman! (No. Not Batman. He's seen what happens when he's Batman.) But, please, he wants to live, but everyone keeps going back, regressing, forgetting what they've been through together, who they are, and Tim too, but suddenly they're back to normal and it's like nothing ever happened. And Tim's the only one that knows. He's too young to die. He's too old to live. He wants. He's stuck in a funny kind of limbo, isn't he?

...

He's so tired. He's so, so tired.

A comic strip on a brown paper background of the characters Narinder and Lamb. Lamb and Narinder are talking, there is no dialogue in the chat bubbles. Narinder is holding his scythe while Lambert is holding the crown as a dagger.

The diagloue bubbles appear sharper hinting at the arguement growing more tense. Narinder turns around with red eyes. the lamb is looking at him with irritation as the dagger forms back into the crown.

Narinder and the Lamb continue argueing. The Lamb appears to be backing up or positioned near one of Anura's trees.

The lamb is looking up at Narinder with an unamused expression while the crown's eye is looking to the side. Lambert's gaze moves off screen as they notice something.

A POV shot of a heratic aiming an arrow at the Lamb.

A heratic is aiming a bow at the camera/the Lamb.

Narinder's chained spear curse comes in from off-screen and spears the heratic through the face. Blood spews from the heratic as the spear comes out from the back of their head.

Narinder's back faces the viewer with his arm raised as the chain retracts back into his hand. Lambert is seen in his shadow still between him and the tree with a surprised look, and the crown is doodled to the side with the words 'damn i didn't even get to transform'

Narinder looms over the Lamb visibly irritated with the dialogue: "Pay Attention. We are not finished."

Lambert is cast in Narinder's shadow. They have a prominent blush with wide eyes and a long line mouth. Text is captioned next to them: 'I would pray 'lord help me' but he's right here and he's not helping'.

Lambert stares at Narinder for a moment, then smacks him in the face as he yelps and makes their escape.

Well. The threatening display worked to quiet Lambert, just not in the way that was intended.

nasa: we're going to shoot three rockets directly at the sun during the total eclipse. for study and research purposes.

me: oh cool

nasa: we have named the rockets apep. this stands for atmospheric perturbations [in the] eclipse path.

me: oh cool

nasa: apep is also the ancient egyptian deity of chaos and darkness, who ceaselessly seeks to extinguish the sun. we launch these rockets directly at the sun in the name of apep.

me: oh... cool?

Eldritch Nika!!! I’ve always been fascinated with this idea ever since reading those fics where Nika is a separate entity (that may or may not have a an agenda of his own) and slowly influences Luffy to being a facsimile of himself. The You are my Sunshine and At the Gallows… are my favorites of Luffy being… slightly off and uncanny due to Gear 5/Devil Fruit. And all those “Gear 5 at Marineford” fics where everyone is horrified at the reality bending he does (Time Moves Through You being my favorite) are fantastic and big inspiration.

Said it a year ago and I’ll say it again.

Pirate all your favorite shows, movies and games while you still have the chance.

Oh, and never stop supporting physical media.
