dick + being batman

#dick grayson #batman #webweaving #dcu #bruce wayne #web weaving #dc comics #this was becoming too long but I have so many thoughts on the dickbats era it makes me feral #imagine loving ur father so much u give up ur name ur team ur identity to take care of his name and son #dick & bruce: you'll never recover from that kind of devotion #thinking about that outsiders panel where roy reads dick to filth by saying his biggest fear is being batman #wish we could've gotten roy reacting to dick in the cape instead of the weird titans for hire BS we got

One thing that was very interesting to me in this episode is the way Eddie was just... not joking about Buck's love interests.

That stuck out.

Usually when Eddie talks to Buck about his love interests, it's with an edge of fond exasperation, teasing laced around his gently delivered truths, but there was none of that this episode. Buck told Eddie he went to see Natalia and it was like something switched. Eddie's entire affect changed when Buck started talking about Natalia. He went from being loose and easy (as loose and easy as one can get when standing at a grave) to being... not combative, necessarily, but visibly actively not wanting to engage in conversation about her either, and it's not...

It's not even jealousy!! We joke a lot about Eddie and jealousy, but it wasn't that at all. It was a fatigue that comes with silence, that comes with holding your tongue, that comes with keeping secrets. Especially when Buck said that he feels like Natalia sees him. That look Eddie gave him immediately after? That was pure hurt. That was him saying I see you too, I've always seen you. But he can't say that. He can't say that, because to say that would be to say so many other things about the way he sees Buck, and to say so many other things would mean to have to unstick his tongue from the roof of his mouth about the ONE thing he's been holding onto ever since he was shot.

I don't know. I don't know, but I think Eddie taking Buck on a date and I think about how Eddie left his son—his heart—in Buck's care so they could bake cookies together (which becomes profoundly more significant in an episode where Christopher was talking about baking smores with his mom), and I think about Kenny saying Ryan has been doing some very nuanced work in the back half of this season, I'm like

Oh. Oh. I see it, thank you. Loud and clear.

#Before 5B I was like 'Eddie's pining era Eddie's pining era WHEN?'#but babes we are right in the thick of it. It's in his eyes. It's in his smile. It's in the way he looks Buck #in the way he treats him. In the way he creates space for his confusion for his fatigue for his grief.#In the way he shows quiet support and a stern shoulder to lean upon #In the way he doesn't burden Buck with his own feelings (even though that's mostly selfish on his part because #no part of Eddie will ever be a burden on Buck but Eddie doesn't know that yet)#It's just. Eddie's feelings for Buck are literally in *everything* he says and everything he does #It bleeds from him just like his blood did on that street.#If everything about Buck/Eddie's lives have been shrouded by the shooting since it happened #everything about their lives has *also* been shrouded by Eddie's enormous and unflinching love for him #and he keeps holding his breath and swallowing it down and putting off the moment where he pulls back the lid #and it all spills out and before he knows it... before he knows it #it's going to be too late. And instead of his blood staining the street it's going to be Buck's and he's going to tell him #but he won't hear him because Eddie was too slow too fucking slow #(did we all peep the watch on his wrist? Yeah. Time is running out Eddie. Time is running out and it is not going to #wait for fear to release its hold on you. Buck's not going to cheat death again. Don't waste time babe)#Anyways. Yeah. YEAH. Yeah....... whew. This episode was a Lot #jack.txt #tv: 911 #911: 06 x 15 #911 spoilers

There seems to be a not so secret anymore ingredient to producing the best movie of the year

(Besides handling the theme of a multiverse in a absolutely mindboggling, entertaining, mastermindlike way)

#across the spiderverse #spiderman #spiderman across the spiderverse #just walked out of this movie and holy shit #everything everywhere all at once #i thought my cinematic experience of that one couldn‘t be topped #both movies are up to par to be not just all-time favorites but also making me fall in love with cinema again #martin scorsese would be proud #not that he‘s dead #but after his comment on cinema in a marvel era #I too had given up hope #but with eeaao and the spider-verse saga I can confidently walk into cinemas and have no fear of disappointment #man incredible #I could talk forever about this movie #miles morales

'I flirted with the idea that instead of being trans that I was just a cross-dresser (a quirk, I thought, that could be quietly folded into an otherwise average life) and that my dysphoria was sexual in nature, and sexual only. And if my feelings were only sexual, then, I wondered, perhaps I wasn’t actually trans.

I had read about a book called The Man Who Would Be Queen, by a Northwestern University professor who believed that transwomen who were attracted to women were really confused fetishists, they wanted to be women to satisfy an autogynephilia. And though I first read about this book in the context of its debunkment and disparagement, I thought about the electricity of slipping on those tights, zipping up those boots, and a stream of guilt followed. Maybe this professor was right, and maybe I was only a fetishist. Not trans, just a misguided boy.

About a year later, on the Internet, I come across a transwoman who added a unique message to the crowd refuting this professor. Oh, I wish I remember who this woman was, and I wish even more that I could do better than paraphrase her, but I remember her saying something like this: “Well, of course I feel sexy putting on women’s clothing and having a woman’s body. If you feel comfortable in your body for the first time, won’t that probably mean it’ll be the first time you feel comfortable, too, with delighting in your body as a sexual thing?”'

-Casey Plett, Consciousness

#this quote always moves me almost to tears when i remember it #i'm not a trans woman and i don't share the author's specific experiences with transition #but it really moves me that she frame transition as joyfully giving yourself permission to approach your body #not as something that has to be disciplined and deprived and made small in all these various ways #but as a means for experiencing pleasure and joy and delight and for insisting that our feelings and desires are worth #valuing and exploring and treasuring #i always used to think of prioritizing those things for myself as selfish and irresponsible #but who does it harm to want to experience pleasure in your own body?#it's such a beautifully simple and powerful switch to have flip in your head #and equally why are we forced to deny our own pleasure in transition and anything else related to our bodies in the name of moral rectitude #this is why i get so confused and pissed off when other trans people are fatphobic for example #like why are you so invested in politics of shame and disgust that never had any purpose other than #violently disciplining people as if they've violated moral codes by existing in a body #to say nothing of white people being racist in gay and trans communities #like again this system of violence is foundational to homophobia and transphobia #so why are you acting like it has nothing to do with you #even if you are unmoved by the urgency of other people's suffering which btw you should be moved by #what do you hope to gain by acting a collaborator and handmaiden to those systems #Casey Plett #she really is one of my favorite authors i wish more non-canadians read her #this quote is from a series of columns she did ont transition and every single one is a banger #i love when she talks about the people-pleasing elements of dysphoria and transition denial #she's so sharp about noting how many of us deny our own dysphoria on the grounds that others like and validate our bodies #that's how i always felt during my cis conventionally feminine era #it pleased other people so much and also that reception felt so hollow and joyless to me because i hated it #i get less of that positive feedback but that feels so unimportant next to the joy and pleasure i get to experience #said with the understanding that i'm very privileged in being able to prioritize those things without fear. but it was a switch flip #personal nonsense

Thinking about Tim and Hawk's lack of mouth-to-mouth intimacy so far.

I need Tim with a boyfriend who:

hugs him

kisses him

holds his hand

and makes him squirm too, but in a fully consenting way

#but i know the era and what wasn't really permitted in public for safety 🥺#but tim spent more time with hawk's foot in his mouth rather than hawk's tongue #and it's probably a choice because of hawk's own fear of being intimate in that kind of way #but did you see tim's little drunk face when they're kissing in that scene at the bar #aaaahhhhh and he asks for more #i need him to be loved #he needs to feel things 😫#fellow travelers #ramble in the tags #ft spoilers #1x01 #hawk x tim #tim x hawk #tim laughlin #hawkins fuller #also hawk made out with tim's armpit but not his face #things that keep me up at night #gay ships #lgbtq+

Evan - Guys don’t panic but I think that over there is a spider.

Dorcas (turns around in her chair) - Wait let me see the little eight-legged cutie.

Barty - AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA WHERE, WHERE!

Regulus - DO NOT LET IT COME NEAR ME!

Evan - Calm down it's just a spider. Is the great Regulus Black and Barty his noble assistant going to let themselves get all scared over a spider?

Barty - Wait, why am I the ASSISTANT?

Regulus - Because it isn’t going to be me! I am far too fabulously smart for that.

Barty - Ohhh right, because you are from the great smart noble incest house. I forgot.

Regulus - (offended) WELL yo-

Evan - I think there is a fair way to figure out who is assistant

Dorcas - Go on

Evan - Whoever touches the spider for the longest period of time is not the assistant.

Dorcas - Seems fair to me, but I am pretty they are both too scared to attempt something like that ;)

Barty and Reg in unison - wE CouLD

Dorcas - Then do it.

Barty (PIcks up the spider for 3 seconds) - Beat that Reg

Regulus (Gulps and picks up the spider) - Alright

Regulus the moment the spiders on his hand (Starts shaking his hand to get it off) - GET OFF ME YOU LITTLE EIGHT LEGGED MONSTER!

Regulus (manages to keep the spider for eight seconds before launching the spider into a desk and killing it)

(Pandora comes through the door)

Pandora - Bumble here are the treats without nargles. Bumbles where are you????

Dorcas - Who’s Bumbles?

Pandora - The spider.

Evan - ……………………..

Dorcas - …………………………

Barty - ……………………….

The Marauders - ………………………

The golden snitch - …………………..

Everyone in the whole world - …………………………

The universe - ………………..

Barty - It was Regulus! I had nothing to do with it!!!

Regulus - LIES! I AM PERFECTLY INNOCENT

Pandora - I believe you

Barty - wait WHAT

Regulus - AND BECAUSE I AM SO INNOCENT, I WILL JUST LEAVE THROUGH THIS DOOR RIGHT HERE! NO OTHER REASON OTHER THAN INNOCENCE!

(Regulus leaves through the door)

Pandora - So0ooo0 does anyone know where Bumbles the spider is?

Everyone- Nope /( ..)\

Pandora - Alright then, I’ll just ask Reg :)

#slytherin skittles #regulus black #jegulus #marauders era #pandora lestrange #barty crouch jr #evan rosier #dorcas meadowes #dorcas loves spiders #Both barty and reg are terrified of them #Pandora thinks they make good friends #Everyone fears our queen Pandora #Evan loves chaos #poor reggies #THEY ARE MY BABIES!

kevin lomax trying to impress secretary!reader with expensive jewelry and clothes but reader isnt into flashy stuff which frustrates Kevin to no end because no girl has ever rejected him or his gifts

maybe he even sees reader talking to a guy who he deems as beneath him and wants to “prove” to the reader that he is the right fit for her

he’d be pouring the reader and say sun like “baby i can provide in more ways than one”

kevin lomax brainrot hours hitting hard tonight CAUSE YEAHHH

secretary!reader comes to work every day and kevin's always ready with a gift at her desk— pearl necklaces, fancy earrings, even designer clothes. the smirk on kevin's face fades when he watches how you feign interest in any of his gifts.

"i think you'd look stunning with these wrapped around your neck," kevin resists the urge to let one of his pet names for you slip out his mouth.

"uh.. thank you, mr. lomax—" he's confused at the sudden formality, but he keeps his gaze on your doe eyes. leaning against his desk, he towers over you as you sit at the chair across from him, holding the box in your delicate hands. "— but this is too much, i can't accept this."

of course the gifts don't stop, because kevin thinks you're just playing coy— but slowly he begins to realise that maybe you might be the only woman in manhattan who doesn't don on expensive clothing and priceless jewels. you were humble, and shy little thing, and that only made him more keen on you.

so much so that he nearly popped a vein in his neck when he saw you chatting with one of the other lesser-impressive lawyers on the floor. he eyed you carefully as you giggle, covering your beautiful smile with your hand, unfortunately enjoying that company of this other man. kevin's a jealous man, who's not afraid to walk right up to your desk, interrupting your delightful conversation.

"you have more important things to do, don't you think?" kevin suddenly appears next to your colleague, raising a brow as he takes a sip from his coffee cup. your colleague swallows awkwardly, letting out a quiet 'yes, sir' before scurrying away.

"that wasn't nice," you furrow your brows, "he was just being friendly."

"oh ms. [l/n], i can be very friendly if you'd just let me."

#love letters.#ceo!kevin lomax era i fear.#he's so .. need him carnally #kevin lomax x reader #kevin lomax imagine #keanu reeves x reader

please please lets talk about how barry and hunter percieve thawne and his relationship with barry. like im sure barry had no idea of thawnes crush on him (along with what even was his motivation in general before rs) like up until 'the only time' confession and him calling thawne pathetic for that is his live reaction to this realization under the influence of negative speed force. and we KNOW he knows at the very least after that because of these mfs!!!

they are fear constructs and they are based on barrys fears!!! THEY ACT EVEN FUCKING GAYER AND CREEPIER THAN THE ORIGINAL ONE!!!

and barry oh poor sweet barry. he had no idea that this!

was thawne meaning time with barry and barry alone! and barry didnt fucking see that! barry related to these words because they reminded him of his parents and naturally he supports The 25th Century Flash! AND THAWNE HEARS THAT 'I UNDERSTAND' AND THINKS THAT BARRY UNDERSTOOD EXACTLY WHAT HE MEANT!! THAT BARRY FEELS THE VERY SAME FOR HIM!!! JUST LIKE HE IMAGINED ALL THESE YEARS!!! AND NEVER QUESTIONS THAT CONCLUSION!!! AND LATER CALLS BARRY A LIAR FOR THAT!!! FOR NEVER FEELING THE SAME DESIRE TO SPEND TIME TOGETHER WHICH BARRY NEVER ACTUALLY IMPLIED!!!!

and what about hunter? oh he saw the events of running scared alright. and more, he has an unlimited access to the info about thawne, both personal experience and flash museum archives. he relates to him, he finds fucking comfort in him and his story. he is just like me fr! thawne is his poor little meow meow too and hunter takes it so much more serious than i do due to percieving him as Tragedy Personified!

in fact thawnes death in running scared fucks him up so badly he gives up his ideals and beliefs about flashes in favor of 'they are unfixable and deserve only to suffer'. besides, hes a profiler, he studied psychiatry. like, that guy should understand thawnes character deeply, right?

..............

hunter. hunter my sweet summer child i dont know how to tell you. this is SO not the reason thawne kept it.

he is the BIGGEST (and the only) fan thawne ever had. he knows about him SO MUCH and yet he straight up cannot figure out the most obvious thing about him because he PROJECTS HIS OWN ISSUES AND BELIEFS ABOUT FLASHES ONTO HIM AND REFUSES TO THINK FURTHER. yall im fucking crying. no comments.

THE CLOSET IS GLASS AND NO ONE FUCKING SEES THROUGH AND I AM PERFECTLY NORMAL ABOUT IT!!!!!!

#eobard thawne #professor zoom #reverse flash #the flash #barry allen #hunter zolomon #zoom #eobarry ig?#please excuse my exclamation marks im on a lot of caffeine rn and this is the most hilarious thing ever and i will never get over it #i love that mess of an era and i hate none of it was actually intended by writers. like EVERY speedster is on a whole different level here #like. williamson sincerely believes both thawne and zolomon are Tragic Characters and that he wrote them accordingly #and i may also be wrong (tho i cant see any other explanation to the every second is a gift and barry=liar origin) but yknow.#never as wrong as hunter 💀💀#sorry my brother in reverse flash brainrot your projections dont slay like mine do :(#also if he gets resurrected hes gonna be in SO MUCH TROUBLE FOR STEALING THAT RING AND SUIT AFTER THAWNES DEATH #LIKE DUDE. HOW DO YOU CARE AND KNOW SO MUCH ABOUT HIM INCLUDING THE FACT HE NEVER DIES PERMANENTLY AND EVER THINK THIS IS A GOOD IDEA #3rd day of pride month going well #also yeah. in relation to my previous post and due to those fear constructs im afraid you could say barry is _canonically_ homophobic.

my verdict on the day of the doctor novelization is that the plot is still so stupid to me but at least i can live my life knowing moffat can write ten marginally correctly but he only keeps it in a novelization where nobody is going to see it. (my personal highlights under the cut)

him. aroace

this is a really good take on the ten and river dynamic, they're acquaintances and ten purposefully keeps it that way. the "time can be rewritten maybe her horrible death that happened in front of me can be prevented if i stay away from her" really goes well with how he's left after the events of journey's end

"he had to stop thinking before it tore him apart!" is THE most ten narration i've seen in my life. i need to eat rocks

this part just makes me really really sad. the dissociation between the tone and what's actually happening (him getting tortured. for months). how he's so clearly not acknowledging what's happening to him (he won't describe the screaming as his own). how he latches onto the only other presence there and focuses on charming her and making her laugh??? this also makes the hinting at a romance between ten and elizabeth that moffat does, extremely fucking upsetting because you can see how ten is just so fucking lonely and on instinct attaching himself to anyone who has any amount of regular presence to him. even if. well. you know. the torture.

like this. see. i need to be shot

you will hear from my lawyers steven.

[coughs up blood]

the "over and over". i need to be put in a blender

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

#i say marginally. it's not perfect. but he manages to get ten's general vibe down well and wow i didnt know u had it in u dude #manic and melodramatic. talking himself hoarse. pacing everywhere. repeating what he's saying over and over #simultaneously fearing and embracing death. full of so much love and anger and grief. like yeah .. thats my boy... he is here..#but the queen elizabeth marriage plotline is still. Annoying ! (i can see v clearly that moffat is trying to do like #a madame de pompadour 2.0 re: queen elizabeth in the novelization and it's like. steven he's aroace we've established this)#and i still. dont like what this overall story is trying to accomplish! but this is the fault of the episode the novelization cant fix that #but besides the expected gripes i have it was much more enjoyable to read than watching the actual episode #the structure of it was fun and does a lot in making use of the written medium that u couldnt do in tv live action #dr who #10 era #11 era #aspec doc tag #also realizing all my highlights are a singular aroace ten moment followed by ten being the saddest wettest beast you'll ever see. lord
