What I was trying to go for was to have Caine and Blue be like how they were in the opening scene of episode 8. Caine/Red is messy, a little bit all over the place while Blue is neat.
But with this neatness comes less of the messiness that made Caine more human-like, and so Blue is more of the āunfeeling machineā between the two. Because, Blue was never anything at all except for something Caine used in order to stabilize his power (<- this is just my take on Blue lol, see ramble here).
But Caine wants to believe that if he could be something more than just the Red dot, then Blue can also be something more than just the Blue dot. They were whole, together as one, once. Caine misses Blue in a way, and wants to believe Blue has the ability to see humanity like he did.
But itās not, and Caine at some point started to realize that this was more about him trying to reassure himself that he is more than just his purpose, that he can be someone. So he projects those feelings onto Blue.
Blue is just a Blue dot, but Caine still wished he couldāve seen how much the circus has grown. They made it together after all.
Like an actual recycling bin, there will come a time when the deleted file will be gone permanently. Maybe itās longer than normal because Blue is also a powerful AI, but itās only a matter of time.

I wish more people got this because some ālow-empathyā people are the most compassionate and sympathetic in the universe, and I hate it when thatās taken to meanĀ āunfeeling and probably hostileā when nothing could be further from the truth
Posts like this make me feel so much better. It always seems like society treat responses to others pain as though empathy is the most important kind. I am around 85% compassionate and this post helped me not feel like I am a monster because of that for once.
That is profound. I noticed this by accident when asked about adjectives by a Japanese student. She translated something from Japanese like āBrown big catā and I corrected her. When she asked me why, I bluescreened.
Iām kinda reading ābrown big catā as ābrown (big cat)ā, that is, a ābig catā - like a tiger or lion or other felid of similar size - that happens to be brown. āBig brown catā, on the other hand, sounds more like a brown cat thatās just a bit bigger than a regular housecat - like a bobcat or a maine coon cat or something like that.
yeah, if you put the adjectives out of order you wind up implying a compound noun, which is presumably why we have this rule; we stripped out so much inflection over the centuries word order now dictates a huge amount of our grammar
Just looked up why we do this and one of the first lines in this article is, āAdjectives are where the elves of language both cheat and illumine reality.ā so I know itās a good article.
Things this article has taught me:
This same order of adjectives more or less applies to languages around the world.Ā āItās possible that these elements of universal grammar clarify our thought in some way,ā says Barbara Partee, a professor emeritus of linguistics and philosophy at the University of Massachusetts-Amherst. Yet when the human race tacitly decided that shape words go before color words go before origin words, it left no record of its rationale.
One theory is that the more specific term always falls closer to the noun. But that doesnāt explain everything in adjective order.
Another theory is that as you get closer to the noun, you encounter adjectives that denote more innate properties. In general, nouns pick out the type of thing weāre talking about, and adjectives describe it,ā Partee told me. She observes that the modifiers most likely to sit right next to nouns are the ones most inclined to serve as nouns in different contexts: Rubber duck. Stone wall.
Rules are made to be broken. Switching up the order of adjectives allows you to redistribute emphasis. (If you wish to buy the black small purse, not the gray one, for instance, you can communicate your priorities by placing color before size).Ā Scrambling the order of adjectives also helps authors achieve a sense of spontaneity, of improvising as they go. Wolfe discovers such a rhythm, a feeling-his-way quality, when he discusses his childhood recollection of ābrown tired autumn earthā and a āflat moist plug of apple tobacco.ā
Brain scans have discovered that your brain has to work harder to read adjectives in theĀ āwrongā order.
TL;DR: No one knows why we do this adjective thing but itās pretty hardwired in.
Since itās never credited, this is from Mark Forsythās The Elements of Eloquence, and just one reason why I think itās required reading for anyone interested in prosecraft. Every page is this useful.

Soulmate AU where, upon the youngest Soulmate turning 18, all have a dream the next time they sleep about the most important moment of their Soulmateās life(or lives, if thereās more than one.)
For most people, this isnāt a huge issue. For the Batfam, itās a huge problem.
But when Jason dreams of a boy who walked into a dark hole in the wall, only to hit a hidden switch, die of electrocution, and wake up as a ghost moments later?
Guess who is still alive? (Itās me) My life went sideways and through two walls but Iāve got PART 7!
All of you get Tucker POV for the next several parts btw. He is also an inch away from killing several gods and the gods are both aware and terrified about that fact. Also a bit of Billy Batson POV as a treat. This is significantly longer then other parts btw so enjoy :).
(Iām reblogging/reposting this again with the hope it actually shows up on my blog this time because it was apparently invisible) also I have no idea where my other reblogs have gone in the reblog section but they still show up on my blog so Ź (~ā~)Ź
āāāāāāāāāāā
As the Champion of Magic, Billy Batson knows a lot.
He knows things that many beings wouldnāt even be able to fathom.
Things that only gods are supposed to know.
Things that even gods shouldnāt know.
He is constantly being fed information from the entities that invade his mind on their own agenda.
Billy is 13.
That last fact seems to be overlooked more then any other piece of information when beings interact with him.
Yes he knows world ending things, but what is truly important information when all you have is important information?
What information is necessary and what information is not?
What is common knowledge and what is uncommon knowledge?
The ācurse of knowledgeā is real and when you donāt have the life experience and maturity to even know when something isnāt as common as you thought it was, is it really his fault for not saying anything?
Billy has luckily only ever had to explain this once to the Justice League with the use of a minor example before they accepted that itās literally impossible for him to know what might be common knowledge and what is most definitely not.
However, John Constantine didnāt seem to understand like the rest of them did.
āSo, Iām going to explain this only one more time,ā Billy gritted out as he glared at his pseudo uncle over the kitchen counter in the House of Mysteries, āthe sky is blue. That is something you know. It is obvious. You can see it. If you think about it youāll probably even be able to tell me WHY it is blue because you most likely read or overheard the reason over the course of your life. Can you agree to what I just said?ā
Johnās eyebrows were furrowed and his lips were pursed but he nodded and remained silent to show his agreement.
āThe sky is blue. That is something that I know. It is obvious. I can see it.ā Billy stared at John, making sure he had constant eye contact in the pleading hope that this analogy finally drives the point heās been trying to make home. āNow pretend that every single creature, including yourself, was colour blind except for me and that I WAS NOT made aware that EVERYONE was COLOUR BLIND.ā
Johnās eyes widened and his lips parted in surprised understanding.
Billy breathed a quiet sigh of relief, āfinallyā.
āSo yeah, to me the sky is blue. It is so obvious and itās right there so why canāt you just check and see for yourself. Obviously everyone knows its blue because how could anyone NOT know itās blue?ā Billy shifted on his feet, shoulders relaxing down now that heās finally started to get through to John. āBut of course you and everyone else wouldnāt know itās blue because youāre colour blind. Why would you even ask what colour the sky is when you donāt even know what colour is? What even is blue? Why is it even important? Itās obvious to you that the sky has always been different shades of grey depending on the weather, and everyone except ME can see that. The sky is grey. Itās obvious. You can see it.ā
Billy looked down at his hands, they were normal at the moment. He was thankful for that since this would have been a harder conversation if they looked as blood covered as they usually did when he wasnāt feeling great.
āI donāt know if something is obvious or if it is something that has been shoved into my head by the universe.ā
āIs that why youā¦ā John trailed off but Billy could tell where his mind had gone.
āYep,ā Billy said, popping the āpā as he stared at the man across from him. āThat is why I said āthe only magical being every god like being in our dimension fears is that one ancient Pharaoh who rewrote the fabric of our dimensionās reality because he was pissed and grieving due to a stupid god killing a woman he loved as a way to get back at him for using magic they believed a puny little mortal shouldnāt have access toā in response to Dr Fates joke about being the scariest magic user the gods have to deal with.ā
John looked like heād seen one of his Exās and like heād also been punched in the gut. Pale with a minor trembling in his hands.
Not a bad reaction considering he just learned that a mortal human magic user fundamentally changed the very reality of their entire dimension. Something that was (and still is) considered impossible even if every powerful god like being teamed up to try and make it happen.
What the Pharaoh did was something that is unimaginable and/or conceivable to even most gods let alone a 87 year old British magic user.
āHow was I supposed to know that you and the other magic users didnāt know that Earth had such a powerful magic user?ā Billy groaned as he leaned against the counter. āHe literally did something thatās impossible. Most modern day magic is based on what The Pharaoh accomplished before he was 45 years of age. He is like the origin of human magic. Why wouldnāt you and everyone else who knows magic be aware of who Iām referring to?ā
John was frozen. Billy could see the trembling in his hands easier now. He was quite glad John had decided to sit down because heās pretty sure that John would have fallen over by now if he hadnāt.
āWhat didā¦ā John almost asked. It was clear he didnāt actually want to know and didnāt want to continue the conversation to the point that he would find out.
Unfortunately Billy knew him well enough to know that if he didnāt tell him, the information would eat at his mind until John figured it out himself. Probably in a more dangerous setting where he didnāt need another distraction.
āHe made it so he could recognize her soul on sight. He made it so that he could be there for her in her most important moment even if he wasnāt physically beside her.ā Billy made sure John was looking directly at him, the next part was why anyone would be considered stupid to not fear this man. The gods included. āNo distance, afterlives, gods or time itself will stand in his way and death would do nothing to detour him in his quest to be by her side. To try, is to invoke his fury.ā
John looked sick.
Then the horror struck.
āYou used present tense,ā John murmured as if he was terrified to say it out loud, āthe Pharaoh is still here on Earth.ā
Wide eyes almost begging Billy to tell him that what he just realized wasnāt true. Begging to tell him that the Pharaoh is dead or at least no longer anywhere near Earth.
Billy grimaced and took a deep breath. He nodded, āthe man who created the soulbonds, the one consistent fact every species who can love shares across every planet in the entirety of our dimension, still reincarnates on Earth to this very day.ā
āāāāāāāāāāāā
Tucker always knew, from the first day he saw Danny, that he was something special.
In what way he was special, Tucker couldnāt say.
But he knew.
To be honest there were many times that Tucker believed heād finally figured it out.
With each time, Tucker would learn that he was wrong and that there was probably something else that made Danny special.
At one point Tucker even thought it was romantic love.
That was the closest he felt to hitting the nail on the head but at the the same time, it felt further away then all his other guesses.
Tucker is straight. He couldnāt (and in truth, still canāt) see Danny in that way.
It might have been the case if Danny was a woman. Though even that felt wrong in a way he couldnāt describe.
It was love but It wasnāt romantic love.
Tucker did eventually figure it out though, at 14 and a half years of age during his most current lifetime.
You see, when Tucker had the lovely experience of what he has dubbed āthe Pharaoh incidentā, he didnāt just gain more memories to add to his growing list of nightmare material.
Tucker gained the memories of every lifetime he has lived from his time as a Pharaoh to his most current existence.
He has learned things he should not know and should never have known.
One of those little facts is the truth about soulbonds and about The Dream.
He rewrote the reality of his entire dimension.
He rewrote the history before him.
He rewrote the reality that was supposed to come after him.
Tucker did something that should be fundamentally impossible because he was grieving and pissed.
Life took away his other half after-all and Tucker did not agree.
She was not supposed to die before him. Tucker was supposed hold her hand and guide her to the life after death.
She was always tripping over her own feet since her head was always tilted towards the sky, to the stars.
Sheād get lost if he wasnāt there to hold her hand.
Sheād trip and fall and he wanted and needed to be there to catch her.
In no way would he ever ask her to look down.
She was meant for the sky and for some reason he still doesnāt understand, she let him anchor her to the hot sand beneath their feet.
She gave up the stars for HIM.
So a simple spell to know and be there for her after death, amplified by grief, spite, life-force, and the power of faith he had gathered as a Pharaoh ended up becoming more then just a simple spell.
It was so easy to know why Danny was special after the memories came back.
Danny may not be female in this reincarnation but Tucker will always recognize his little starlight. His sister brother in everything but blood.
Never in blood.
No matter the lifetime funny enough.
Danny was Tuckerās other half. The person he loves with so much of his being that he rewrote reality so that he could always find him.
He was right in that his love wasnāt romantic. Romantic love fell short to how he felt about his best friend. Partners can come and go but his starlight was always there in every reincarnation he lived through.
His sibling if you can call it that but more. A relationship so close that they felt like one person at times.
Tucker felt hallow without Danny.
Danny seemed to feel the same even if he hasnāt fully recognized it yet.
Where Danny goes Tucker will follow and where Tucker goes Danny will follow too.
Marrying one was accepting the other as part of a packaged deal.
Tucker was so excited to tell Danny who he was to him.
Tucker was so excited to erase all his fears about his 18th birthday.
He was so excited to crush him in a hug and say that he didnāt have to worry about the relationship being romantic. It was platonic.
He was dying to yell up to Danny as he floats in the breeze near the clouds that he was his sibling and best friend on a soul deep level.
That Danny can cry on his shoulder and fall asleep on him when he gets too stressed because heāll always be there for him.
That he neednāt worry about being accepted when he already holds so much of Tuckerās love and acceptance already.
He was so excited and then a fucking clock came and told him to wait or else.
He has waited.
His patience is wearing thin.
Clockwork better be prepared for the pain heāll bring if he finds out heās anything less then fully honest with what heād said. Honesty that includes NOT leaving out information.
Tucker watched, with a level of detachment most would never expect from him, as STACY (his latest modified PDA) notified him that his code successfully opened the doors and looped the cameras of Arkham Asylum.
Not all the doors of course.
In fact, some doors āmalfunctionedā and ātrappedā the poor guards in various locations around the facility.
If these locations just so happened to be out of a certain face-painted murders way, then thatās just an unfortunate coincidence.
He glanced at the camera connection he still had and sighed as the Joker made his way out the front door with a hop, skip and disappearance.
Danny got him.
Tucker flipped over to the code he had been running to track the movement of the other rouges he let out as they scattered into Gotham.
Now it was simply a matter of manipulating them into the path of the local vigilantes or police traps until they were all caught.
An endeavour that was easier then getting Cujo to sit, apparently.
Leaning back on the hotel bed, he settled in for the wait.
Unfortunately, that meant that he had time to think.
Thinking meant he was going to have to calm the fuck down before Danny got back and tasted his rage in the air.
Because it was rage that he feels when he allowed himself think.
Tucker swears to Ra that he will figure out a way to set Denwen himself on Clockwork if Jason hurts Danny or ends up being a shitty soulmate.
Consequences ignored and forgotten.
He focused on the small green tab that opened at the top of the page. A tab simply used for text with the words āSeven days ~ CWā typed out in the middle of it.
Good to know Clockwork is aware of how little patience Tucker holds for it right now and itās gratifying to realize he probably does manage to call upon Denwen and set him on Clockwork in some alternate future.
Alternate future because Clockwork isnāt stupid enough to allow a future like that to come to pass.
That knowledge made Tucker feel a little better.
He glanced at the clock in the corner of the room, watching as the seconds tick by.
Danny wonāt be back for at least another 6 hours.
Tucker has time.
The sand that always seems to follow him swirled in agitation.
Time.
He may not set a god killer on Clockwork but heās probably still going to break itsā face with his staff.
Multiple times.
A new green tab popped up:
āAll is as it should beā
Tucker glared at it.
Another tab popped up:
āThis is the best future for Dannyā
Tucker took a deep breath and sighed.
He was skeptical that that statement was in anyway true, but considering he didnāt have timeline viewing abilities heād have to take Clockworkās word for it.
For now.
Magic is amazing when paired with technology and learning he can invoke it in the first place has lead to a lot of changes in his role as Dannyās backup.
Even before he started getting his memories back.
Memories heās not supposed to have that gave him knowledge heās REALLY not supposed to have.
Regardless, it means that timeline viewing powers arenāt fully out of the realm of possibility.
Maybe he should just replace Clockwork if that becomes the case.
A green tab pops up, already open, in the middle of the screen.
āIf you take my position youād be unable to stay by Dannyās side for long periods of time ~CWā
āTsk,ā Tucker clicked his tongue in agitation as he closed down the tab.
A notification popped up on screen, Two Face and Scarecrow have been caught.
Since the only two rouges heād been nervous about getting away have been accounted for with only one death between them, he was counting it as a win. Especially since the death was a cop who had more dirt on him then the Condiment rouge.
He closed STACY and placed her off to the side, knowing and trusting her to alert him if his codes canāt adjust for a rouge or a surprise situation that comes up, unlikely as that would be.
He stared at the clock, only ten minutes had gone by.
Jason better be worth it or Tuckerās going to change his gender identity to A Fucking Major Problemā¢ļø.
Sure he can admit that his first impression of the dude is actually pretty good all things considered. Jason had pretty much seen Danny become a Halfa and went Iām going to burn down the government as an introduction gift.
Itās a damn good gift.
Itās a gift Danny deserved.
It was SUPPOSED to be Tuckerās gift.
It was supposed to be HIS gift to Danny.
Tucker glared at the ceiling before taking a deep breath and closing his eyes.
clicking Markās new video and him ending it with āI can finally escape the blood ocean and curl up into Ryan Goslingās armsā made me put my head into my hands.

Honestly, Tvyek is pretty miraculous. Itās permeable to water vapor but not to water, itās nearly impossible to tear, but can be easily cut. Itās cheap and made entirely without binding chemicals. In addition to being used for wristbands, itās used to wrap construction sites to keep out water during construction, for tear-resistant envelopes at Fed-Ex, coveralls for mechanics, and my wallet, actually.
Fun tip, though it looks like paper, Tyvek is plastic, and cannot be recycled with paper.
