i hate writing historical fic because every five sentences you’re googling random shit like “when did billiards become popular in america” & i’ll have you know it was the 1820s

fun fact my pals the word ‘okay’ or ‘O.K.’ (the abbreviation for the old timey spelling of ‘all correct’) was popularized in 1840 by Van Buren’s US presidential election slogan and seeing it in historical fiction before then feels like a little glitch in the matrix, but seeing it in an Old Timey Fantasy setting sends me down the rabbit hole of how a fantasy world language would be brutal to translate, and language in general is a trip, and nothing means anything, probably 

I just want to add a correction: O.K. was not an abbreviation for an “old-timey” spelling of “all correct”; it is in fact an abbreviation for an INTENTIONAL MISSPELLING of “all correct.” There was a short-lived period in the 1800s where it became amusing and trendy to flagrantly misspell conversational phrases and then abbreviate them, and “O.K.” is the only one to survive to the present day.

O.K. is an ancient MEME.

Anonymous asked: But what if Han had actually been raised in the Temple, ie, Anakin never went postal, so when the council decides it's time for Anaking to take on another padawan they give him Han

suzukiblu:

Then the Council has made a stupid-ass decision, but they’re the ones who’ll be paying for the property damage so I guess they have the right to. >> 

“Uh no I’m leaving the Order, the war’s over, I’m not–” Anakin attempts, except suddenly there is a cranky and untenable nine year-old in his apartment and Anakin realizes that at some point he has been tagged as the Problem Padawan Whisperer, oh no. 

Welp, time to do the logical thing and make sure the Council regrets ever letting them meet each other, then. 

“Hey, kid, what are your feelings on pod-racing?” 

Initiate Solo has NEVER perked up so much at something a master said.

Reasons to be happy today:

• The Waynes, being a noble and ancient house, do have a family motto– it’s dignified and Latin, and it’s on the family crest– but the current generation has decided that the family motto is actually “talk shit, get hit” and frankly, Bruce doesn’t know how to handle that
• “Could somebody please remind Tim of the family motto” “Talk shit, get hit, Timothy” why are his kids like this?? Translating it into Latin doesn’t make it legitimate, but nice try
  
• Tim and Damian have one of those “It has been __ days since our last incident” dry erase boards hanging in kitchen. They have never hit double digits, and they are not ashamed. 
• You know those people that spoil the movie halfway through because they figured out what’s going to happen? Bruce. And because he does that, all of his kids try to beat him to the punch. The Detective Clan has been permanently disinvited from all superhero movie nights. (Especially Dick. He’s the worst offender.)
• Since Duke is entering the batfamily– and living in the Manor– with very little knowledge of the existing members, odds are most of his information about the other kids will come from Damian. Please. Imagine that trainwreck.
