For the unpopular opinion meme: My enjoyment of ace!Cass headcanons depend on the user, because Cass being ace is a headcanon that makes sense given what we see in the text, but some parts of fandom make me uncomfortable with how quick they are to label every asian/autistic character ace and with Cass especially how it plays into her fanon version of sweet and kind and naive.
(No pressure to answer this if you don't want to I just saw the meme and thought of the first unpopular opinion in my head lmao)
i haven't really thought about it before but i don't really think of cass as ace. maybe i need to reread some of batgirl (2000) but it felt to me that cass took issue with being objectified but wasn't opposed to exploring her sexuality. and i find the angle of her taking issue with being objectified in that context more interesting because she's also dealt with being objectified in a different sense with how she was raised to be a human weapon. also maybe the reason she hasn't had much chemistry with guys is because she's a lesbian.
Disco Elysium is way out in the lead so far, but that's just the boring old regular votes. We still have to hand out the Bonus Votes!
Yes, just like in Mario Party, here comes Toad and Koopa Troopa to invalidate all your hard work with a bunch of arbitrary bullshit!
First off, we'd like to thank each of the projects that didn't get any votes for participating, but unfortunately you can't get Bonus Votes if you didn't get any regular votes. Better luck next time!
As for our remaining projects, you're in for a special, honey-sweet treat, because we've invited our good friend Queen Bee to present her very own specialty: the Buzzy Bonus Votes! These votes are for the projects that have the most 'buzz' about them!
The first Buzzy Bonus Vote is the 'Reply Buzz' vote! It goes to the project that generated the most buzz in the poll's replies!
With a total of one reply, the Reply Buzz bonus vote goes to Cass Cain, courtesy of fellow comic book drama aficionado, Lobac! Thanks, Lobac!
...
The second Buzzy Bonus Vote is the 'Reblog Buzz' vote! It goes to the project that generated he most buzz in the poll's reblogs!
With a total of one reblog, the Reblog Buzz bonus vote goes to Hollow Knight, courtesy of fellow project idea accumulator, Red! Thanks, Red!
...
The final Buzzy Bonus Vote is the 'Dash Buzz' vote! It goes to the project with the subject that most recently organically appeared on Sception's dashboard!
With a most recent Dash appearance of 7 minutes ago, the Dash Buzz bonus vote goes to Cassandra Cain, courtesy of fellow Cass fan, aingeal98! Thanks Aingeal!
Now, zome of you might be thinking the Dash Buzz bonuz vote iz a bit unfair, zinze Zzeption followz the 'Cazzandra Cain' tag, and doezn't follow any tagz for the other project ideaz in thiz poll. But poztz wouldn't be showing up on hiz dash 'organically' if he had zkewed the resultz by following extra tagz juzt for the poll, right? Bezidez, Mario Par..., um, This Poll iz just a game! It'z not worth getting upzet about it! We're juzt having zome fun here!
...
So with the Buzzy Bonus Votes all distributed our final vote total comes to OH NO, IT'S BOWSER!!!!
Grawr! Yes, it's me, Bowser! King of the Koopas! If there's one thing I hate as an absolute monarch, it's extreme inequality! And in my opinion the results of this poll were way too extremely in-equal! So now it's time for some Bowser Brand Bonus Equality!
In the name of Bonus Equality, I'm going to give One Vote from the project that got the most votes to EACH of the other projects that got any votes at all! So that's Minus Four votes from Disco Elysium, and Plus One vote to each other Project that's still in the running! Now THOSE results are looking WAY more equal!
YOU'RE WELCOME!
...
Oh, wow. That Bowser sure does know a thing or two about fairness and equality. So, after Queen Bee's Buzzy Bonus Votes AND Bowser's Bonus Equality, the final results of the poll are as follows:
Cassandra Cain: 8 votes
Morrowind: 2 votes
Hollow Knight: 7 votes
Sekiro: 5 votes
Disco Elysium: 6 votes
Wow! What a close poll!
But we have our winner, fair and square. Sception's next blogging project is going to be reviving and continuing the long sidelined Cassandra Cain Re-read!
...
If you voted for one of the other projects, though, don't worry! I don't stick to anything for too long, so I'm sure the other projects here, particularly Disco Elysium and Hollow Knight, will get their turn sooner rather than later! Though Hollow Knight might get superseded by its sequel if Silksong is released before I get to it.
And while I may have (intentionally) obfuscated this up front, the real goal of this poll wasn't to see which project generated the most interest among my followers - as I've said in the past, I'm more than happy performing for an audience of only one. Rather, what I really wanted was to see which projects generated no interest at all. Thanks to this poll, I can put four potential projects to bed before I even started them, significantly reducing my overall backlog. I can also safely play those games on my own time without feeling any pressure to make a whole thing about it.
4. What introduced you to the DC universe? Was it a show, comic or movie?
oooooh boy. So I grew up watching the teen titans on tv but I was like a little kid then and so I don't think I really understood comics were a thing. I got into flash comics because of the CW Flash show idk I was just like "hmmmm let's find out about this Barry Allen fellow..." but I didn't get into batfam comics until after I watched the Young Justice cartoon (I know, I know the crowd is booing and hissing at me) because I was just sooooo fascinated by Robin. So then I started reading a bunch of Dick Grayson stuff like Robin Year One and his Nightwing runs. And THEN I found out he had a Batman and Robin run AS Batman. And thus I was introduced to Damian Wayne my son 😭 and the rest is history tbh.
6. Favorite cannon ship?
Definitely Tim Drake/Bernard Dowd 💀 Before them I would have said Dickory even though they're not together anymore.
