Gang

it seems like the cop who pushed dex and the guy who got killed by his tooth are the same person

he had it coming i guess

dear professor i cant seem to lock in. its so over

i wish i could emanate my level of insanity through the screen i feel like i literally need to be sedated this still looks exactly straight out of a comic panel he IS bullseye and he IS crazy

THANK YOU COUNSELLOR

FUCK YOU

Full body chills, chest flushed, heart pounding, vision blurring, head buzzing; I am but a humble worm in soil arising with the rain to lay beneath your gaze, swathed in your light and bathing in your tears

sorry boss can't come in today i was on my way to work and then a gentle spring breeze kissed my cheek and reminded me it is a serious thing just to be alive on this fresh morning in this broken world

touch starved but for physical violence

#whatever is going on between these two

I’ve been thinking about it again and people on twt mentioning how built wilson bethel is and that his body looks like one of a swimmer made me think that well yes WHAT IF dex became a swimmer in a way that its a “clean” sport. swimming makes him relaxed/helps him clear his mind which if we’d be to keep his - in this reality - intrusive thoughts about murder and his stalking swimming could be a good metaphor for “cleansing” himself. it would also be a nice route for him to follow if he maybe wanted to pursue “being normal” this way distancing from the harmful talent of his

+ bonus points as this version would replace his usual smell of cleansing (?) bleach to the smell of the pool bleach does it make sense idk how to distinguish them matt would sense it

thinking about dexmatt olympics au and i dont know what sports would fit them the best..

obvious choices for dex would baseball/softball/archery but i think that biathlon would suit him better because he would soon realise that those sports are too boring for him whereas biathlon is more competitive and competitive skiing in combination with fast-paced shooting is more of a “fun” choice. OR he could be in athletics! in original lore he got tired of a singular discipline really fast, so maybe keeping it as versatile as possible is a good option for him - javelin, different types of running, jumping etc etc. (javelin and other throwing disciplines keep his “bullseye” shtick)

matt is a harder one to choose for because it’s kinds hard to determine what kind of sport in paralympics would realistically be a good choice AND fit him. there’s such discipline as blind football and it could work! however idk if its the best fit and maybeee going less real-world reliant is an option and he could participate in para archery or para shooting which I think would be a better fit for him (keep his supersonic hearing or something?). however martial arts work too (and i think it’s the best fit!) and it would be the best lore-wise option as well because maybe his dad got him into this discipline by training him some boxing, then stick could be a grumpy coach that helped him after dad’s death

fun fact - there has actually been a blind martial arts winner in para judo! her name is Theodora Paschalidou and she won 1st place in 2020 so, yeah, maybe matt can be a martial arts athlete! however there are not that many disciplines to choose from - judo and taekwondo. judo is more self-defence reliant and is grappling based, whilst taekwondo is more aggressive and relies on kicks to win. SO maybe matt could’ve started off with judo early in his career and then switched to taekwondo? is that a thing? by mastering more than one martial art he could also stay a martial arts master that he is originally

if anyone has any other suggestions I’m all ears😋😋
