Harley & Ivy

This is why I love them!

Harley is an abuse survivor of course she’d wreck this dude!!!

Can I just say how much I love the implications here?
Harley and Ivy are known public figures. People know who they are, and recognize them. And this kid knows that, despite being violent criminals, they’re safe enough to go to for protection.
Ivy is dead certain that the Batfamily will be okay with them intervening to protect a kid. That has some intersting implications - either she knows damn well where the lines lie and that this is overriding enough to get her a pass, or (more likely, given the first bit) this has come up before.

one of my favorite tropes is villains acting heroically not because the other villain is a threat to them or because it benefits them, but because they have standards

Little-known downsides of immortality:

Tearing your favourite article of clothing and discovering that it’s irreplaceable because the technique of its manufacture has been lost

Realising you’ve thought of the perfect comeback to someone who’s been dead for three hundred years

Not being able to eat your favourite dish anymore because the source of some critical ingredient has gone extinct

Having strong opinions about sports that are no longer played

Getting a song from the 13th Century stuck in your head and being unable to get it out because you don’t remember how it ends and you’re the only person on Earth who knows it

Having that perfect pun you’ve been waiting forever for a chance to use stop working due to linguistic drift

If I had picked a post of mine from 2016 to go viral it would not have been “a brief and uncited socioeconomic history of canned food in midcentury America”. 

“That’s the thing, Sam; you never know precisely when fame is going to saunter over and start making out with you. And, even better, you probably will have even less understanding of why.”

“How did you get in here? Aren’t you supposed to be on location somewhere? Oh my God.”

“They understand that this is important to me. I need to make sure that everyone has a brush with the uncomfortable gaze of celebrity.”

“Well, you do have a very disquieting gaze, especially since I’m still in my kitchen.”

“Good. Nice owl.”

This feels like the most amazing comeuppance I’ve ever had. :D

I put so horrifyingly much thought into this.  Like, this is why I didn’t start before today.  So…

Nate, warlock.  May or may not have originally been the same person as Sterling.  Like, there may be some Jekyll and Hyde bullshit in their past, possibly due to–

Maggie, mad scientist.  From her heart and from her hands, why does no one understand her intentions?

Sophie, werewolf.  Cons can be planned around the full moon.  Broadway shows cannot.

Hardison, vampire.  Ask him about blood plasma.

Eliot, several reanimated corpses having a very good hair day.

Parker, ghost.  Still fond of money, tight spaces, and fire.  Because Parker.

Most mad scientists in movies are actually just mad engineers

It’s always “I’ll use this gigantic laser to blow up the moon”, and never “I’ll test the effect this gigantic laser has on the moon, my hypothesis is that it will blow up”

“I’m going to test the effects of deadly neurotoxin on the island of Manhattan. The control group will be Long Island, which I will not release deadly neurotoxin upon.”

I ship Joan Watson and Amy Santiago and no one can stop me.

Amy following Joan around like a little gay puppy. Over-excitedly complimenting her outfits. Making soft meeping sounds of aroused distress whenever Joan deduces something. Begging Joan to mentor her, mentor her hard.

#hobbit and I agree#jake would be so into it#literally incapacitated with delight#sherlock would be encouraging#joan would be intrigued#amy would be ADORABLE#jake meanwhile would be trying to be sherlock’s new best friend#to sherlock’s infinite horror#of course joan would point out it’s strange that sherlock finds jake so irritating#given how much they have in common wrt lifestyle and hygiene habits#offending sherlock thoroughly#there is a DIFFERENCE watson#between being moderately eccentric and nontraditional in one’s methods#and being an immature slovenly MANCHILD#right and which one are you again?

In which Elle Woods is smarter than Sam Winchester.

If we are going with the premise that Elle will be better than Sam at anything she puts her mind to because she is just that awesome, can you imagine how awesome at hunting, or at least research for hunting, she would be?

Just the thought of Sam’s pout upon meeting her makes me giggle.

I want this crossover at least 90% more than all the other crossovers.

We shall call it Supernaturally Blonde.

YES.

SHE’D SHOW UP TO A HUNT IN PINK KITTY HEELS AND RECITE THE LATIN FOR AN EXORCISM PERFECTLY AND HAVE A BEJEWLED SHOTGUN AND DEAN WOULD HAVE AN ANEURYSM

Supernaturally Blonde. Yes. I want it. Elle killing demons with a perky attitude.

as long as she doesn’t sleep with him

we all know what happens to the girls Sam sleeps with

my contribution :D

Headcanon that McGonagall is offended on a personal level that Umbridge loves cats. 

This literally got 600 more notes just while I was at dinner what the fuck

How has nobody thought about this before tbh

Ok but imagine McGonagall in cat form prowling around the castle, in strategically chosen places so that Umbridge will come across her. 

Umbridge takes the cat back to her office and feeds it a little saucer of milk. The cat starts coming back to Umbridge’s office around the same time every night, until eventually Umbridge gets into a little routine of setting out a saucer of milk for the cat before bed. McGonagall now has all the best secrets on Umbridge, all of the results of the evaluations, and most importantly, is in a perfect position to spy on the ministry for the Order of the Phoenix. 

All because Umbridge is obsessed with cats.

The mental image McGonagall lapping up that milk while full of burning hatred for Umbridge amuses me in ways I can hardly describe.

The only map that matters

True facts, I had a Distant Aunt who lived in Rough & Ready, California. It’s a quirky little town whose major claim to fame is that it once seceded from the Union for a year to avoid paying federal mining taxes.
