#yes I still want Robin

[audhd-nightwing]

things in DC canon i’ll literally never get over

1. dick finds out batman replaced him as robin (without asking him) from the NEWSPAPER and simultaneously finds out bruce adopted a new kid without telling him (to make things worse: bruce didn’t even adopt dick)

2. dick finds out jason died from the newspaper (AGAIN? REALLY BRUCE?) and bruce had the fucking funeral WITHOUT HIM while he was still in space

#i’m only like 80% sure these are fully canon btw #correct me if i'm wrong #dc comics #bruce wayne #dick grayson #jason todd #robin!jason #batman #batman comics #nightwing #batman and robin #ok yes ik there’s a reason bruce didn’t adopt dick #aka he didn’t want to replace dick’s father #but imagine being a teenager and your foster dad adopts a kid without even telling you #and then giving him YOUR name without asking #like no one would feel great about that #i will never forgive bruce for not telling dick jason died / having the funeral without him #though i do love some yummy angst #where hood!jason yells at dick for not even being at the funeral #and dicks like ‘i was still in fucking space!’ #like yes bruce was grieving but BRO thats ur other son come on

read Wayne family adventures and want a more accessible path into comics than a billion issues reading lists?

scared of what you heard about Bruce in comics?

curious as to what duke fans get all huffy about when a new wfa issue comes out?

introducing:

#wayne family adventures #bruce wayne #tim drake #jason todd #duke thomas #here are some more sales pitches: #this is a collected anthology of a lot of duke's appearances as the signal #like yes obv start with we are robin BUT if you want to get Right into the nice mentor&mentee relationship between bruce and duke and thenn #go back and read WAR i underdstand have a nice day #if you only have a little bit of reading time and you wanna understand duke a little better read this #it goes over his training and such with bruce #i think it literally has 4 or 5 issues and includes some of bruce and dukes brain genius thinking (read disasters) #i will make you care about duke thomas or die trying #but just.. please you cannot survive on wfa and fic alone #and bruce and duke's relationship is really nice and mostly healthy #which cannot be said for his relationship with Licherally any other bat #why are you still on tumblr go read it #bread talk

People always say bruce kidnapped jason immediately after meeting him but at least he only took him in after leaving him at the crime orphanage didn’t work out. With cass they had exactly one conversation consisting of them drawing in the dirt and throwing punches at each other while bruce projected his past experiences onto her and then he was welcoming her in like “i have complete confidence that she won’t kill anybody”

#batfam #i can not stress enough that I am not exaggerating. #Bruce genuinely left Jason at ‘Ma Gunn’s School for Boy’ and Ma Gunn tried to force Jason into goon hood #she was trying to get the boys to steal shit it was literally Oliver Twist #and Cass? first meeting was b guessing what Cass’ gestures meant #gestures such as ‘no speaking only fighting’ which b only could guess at because he also trained under Cain #then Cass drew a picture of 2face in the dirt with a stick and indicated she wanted to beat him up as well as her father #b told her not to. she did so anyways and it impressed batman and him and babs give her the batgirl suit #next issue Bruce is directing all his allies and Tim’s like hey who’s the assassin chick and Bruce is like don’t worry about it I trust her #jason todd #cassandra wayne #cassandra cain #I mean bruce DID take in a child he only met a day ago and invited him to be robin before telling him his name #so like yes it’s still a ridiculous and probably irresponsible thing to do #bones' bitching hours

who the hell is robin?

(the winter soldier robin au)

(this is a mini au featuring platonic stobin and ronance! for reference; robin is the winter soldier, steve is the captain, nancy is the black widow. @suwunnysideup is the reason this exists, we got to talking abt it and i couldn't stop thinking abt it.)

They’re in broad daylight. In downtown Hawkins. Steve pants, body aching after receiving a blow from the metal arm. Nancy runs alongside him as they stare at the mysterious figure in all of the smoke and rubble. As the smoke clears, Steve catches a glimpse of a blonde bob, a familiar blonde bob. Is that…? She’s alive!  A smile spreads like wildfire across his face. Nancy hangs back, squinting to see who it is. She grabs Steve’s arm, briefly holding him in place, “Steve,” she says, voice low, “I don’t think this is a good idea.”

Steve yanks his arm free of her grasp, ignoring her warning. He gets closer to the blonde fringe, coughing through the smoke. The blonde begins to turn, and the reflection of sunlight on the metal arm nearly blinds him. His smile drops, a hard lump forming in his throat. He tries hard to swallow past it, forcing himself to speak. “Robin?” he gasps, tears brimming in his eyes and a sickening, lurching feeling in his stomach.

The blonde turns around, and Steve hears Nancy utter a soft oh my god–like a prayer. It’s her. It’s Robin! She’s alive! Oh my god. 

Except she does not recognize them. Steve can see it in the way her eyes remain emotionless, dead. But, he thinks, and maybe he’s just a little too hopeful, he thinks that when he said her name, something registered in her eyes. It’s quickly replaced though, as her eyebrows furrow, fully facing him as she says, “Who the hell is Robin?” She draws the handgun from it’s holster and aims it straight at Steve. His best friend is gone. 

Maybe not, he thinks, maybe she’s still in there.  And it’s foolish and silly and full of hope, but he knows she’s in there. How does he know? She hesitated.

(Later, when Robin is sitting on the chair of the dreaded, but routine, memory wipe machine, sitting in silence as they routinely fix her arm, pieces of her (?) memory resurface. She looks to one of the Russian guards. “That man in the middle of town,” she starts, her own voice surprising her, “who...who was he?”

“You met him earlier, on a different mission.”

This does not convince Robin. No, she thinks. Her voice hoarse from disuse surprises her once again, “I knew him…”

The guards are angry. She can tell at the way they all tense when she says this. The head guard fills her in on what she’s done, what she can accomplish. But this does not satisfy her. It is an itch that she must scratch, a scab that she must pick at. Her voice is soft, but no longer hoarse, as if the return of her memory alone has made her stronger, somehow. “But I knew him…”

This is the final straw, and she briefly hears someone shout “Prep her!”  as the rubber mouthpiece is routinely slid in her mouth and someone pushes her shoulders back, ensuring she sits properly before they place the electromagnetic plates on her skull. She clenches her teeth, waiting for the inevitable, but all she can think about before they pull the switch is; I knew him. I knew him. Don’t forget. I knew him. I knew him. I know him. 

They pull the switch, and the cycle begins again.)

#stranger things #steve harrington #nancy wheeler #robin buckley #winter soldier robin au #ronance #platonic stobin #hope y'all enjoy the blurb that came with this! i spent like 30 mins on it lol. #my writing #moodboard #ronance moodboard #yes this sprung from the flayed robin winter soldier post from a few days ago #i couldnt get the angst of winter soldier robin out of my head #AGAIN THIS IS PLATONIC!!! STOBIN!!! I DON'T SHIP THEM #ronance as buckynat tho.... hehehehe #although i was thinking about doing a steddie one shot based on the winter soldier as well. hm #maybe i'm still thinking about it... we'll never know. #if anyone wants to talk abt THAT idea....lemme know bc i have Ideas

[bluemeetyellow]

also i get that no one wants to hear it right now but this totally does mean something lol. like down to the wardrobe choices... this very much means something.

#aka means something byler-y #im still gonna talk abt it just cuz i do still believe its written into the show #even tho yes as much as everyone i want my gay fantasy shit where we're allowed to hold hands #also that scene between vickie/robin made me hopeful not just for her but for will too lol #like litrlly vickie/robin while steve stands at a distance and watches... then this scene where its will/mike while el stands at a distance #n watches... but shes not watching them shes watching THIS which uh. also gives me hope she wont just be reduced to love interest #again.. cuz it seems like. again mike/el made up but not on a very Romantic note at all. it was just typical they all love each other thats #been the theme since s1! #n also made me think if theyre gonna go a route where will just gets a random boyfriend that they wouldve introduced him somehow #but nah... end with that scene on him n mike.. w the other couples.. #like between the oldest n second to oldest... yea. ok it means smth sorry LOL #i hate waiting man but. undeniable #st4 spoilers #silver cat speaks

Not sure if you were asked this but since 2k3 Don is your fav do ya have a least fav turtle in 2k3?

Ok, if I HAD to pick a least favorite, which is so unfair because I do love them all, and Robin please don't hate me cause you're so awesome, but it would probably have to be Raph.

Listen, I love Raph. He's dependable, and he loves his brothers more than anything, and he's incredibly sweet, he's always got his brothers backs, he's ready to go at the drop of his hat. He's truly awesome.

But, his anger issues, which I think, without getting too deep cause it's 6 am and I'm at work, are from a place where he feels he needs to protect his family, and he loves them dearly but maybe doesn't know how to express that except thru anger. And I think thats wheres there's a TINY disconnect between me and him. Cause I'm very much a Donnie who keeps a level head (except when it comes to a panicking fugetoid).

But, I love Raph, please dont get me wrong. He's really admirable. But if I HAD to pick a least favorite...

But look! Such a sweet boy! I still love him dearly!

#wren askbox #robin please dont hate me #i love all my sons #now if you wanted to talk about 2k12 thatd be a different story XD #but yes im still alive just struggling with body and life and sally rn #i really need her new meds to come in the mail today cause she is not feeling well

trying to teach the concept of money to a child who has the persona of robin hood is a lesson in futility

I actually hope Will's coming out scene and the confession take place at two different times because I really don't want a coming out scene for Will to end up being overshadowed

#a good coming out scene for Will is very important to me #and i think it'd be better to have him talk to someone about it who will show him its okay and that nothing changes because he's still Will #like the scene with Jonathan but bigger #even if it is with Mike i dont want a confession right after #i want Mike to comfort Will and then have him like sit on the idea of confessing #lets be honest Mike's brain would be on overdrive and his first priority is making sure Will is okay #also i would let Will to come out to either of his siblings or Robin #i would say Lucas but i really really need a scene of Mike and Lucas talking about it #like im pretty sure Lucas will take S1 Mike's place and then he'll just get it #he'll understand why Mike was always so protective and adamant on getting Will back #so he'll bring up or something and yes just yeah i need it #byler #byler tumblr #will byers #mike wheeler #byler season 4 #mike wheeler i know what you are

Stranger Things time travel concept where Steve Harrington wakes up on November 1st, 1984 friendless, newly single, and with a bunch of memories that haven’t happened yet.

#basically I want Steve to start hanging out with Robin and Eddie much earlier #while retaining his character development #also obviously this would be a fix it #but things still go to shit because Steve is kinda dumb and not omniscient and learned a large chunk of the plot second hand the first time #yes this is a Steddie set up #I just really want Eddie to live and be gay and have friends #and Steve doesn’t have to be as lonely in 84 #as a treat #stranger things #stranger things fix it #stranger things au #steddie #stranger things 4 #stranger things 2 #steve harrington #time travel au #stranger things time travel #eddie munson

does anyone have any Ideas for the name of a doctor who themed typing game. all i can come up with is TARDIS typer 😭😭

#this is for my computing project btw #which i have FINISHED!! WAHOO !! #well. #i've finished the programming part #i still need to do the write up but meh #but yeah ideally want a more interesting name than that if anyone has any funky puns or anything- #doctor who #computing a level #computer science #TARDIS #the game features a TARDIS + daleks and a weeping angel btw #just like a generic speed typing game sorta thing like zty.pe but way more basic #like the dalek moves towards the TARDIS and u have to type the word before it gets there #and weeping angel is a fun bonus bc ur supposed to look at the screen bc touch typing and yeah angels yk #anyway yes name suggestions would be much appreciated bc my creativity is not excellent atm #robin rambles :)

Lesbian Stephanie Brown...oh you're so real to me

#ramblings of a lunatic #on the one hand do i think her genuine romantic interest in Tim is a really important part of her early character??? #yes it contextualises a lot of her behaviour especially when you compare Tim to other men in her life who treat her far more poorly #ON THE OTHER HAND #do i think her strongest most fulfilling and most equal (and homoerotic) relationships are almost exclusively w women??? #yes #do i think steph is often a victim of her role as tims love interest meta-narratively?? YES very much so (thoughts still cooking tho- #-bc i have read a lot of her appearances in robin but not all of them and not in order) #do i think that it only hits so tragically bc she genuinely likes him and wants to belong in his world (for reasons beyond tim as well ofc) #so. you see it's very complicated #like in terms of being supported by textual canonical evidence she's bi and i love that reading a lot #this is just personal to me as a dyke steph brown enjoyer. i recognise it's not the most coherent interpretation thematically #(also either way I'd like to say. steph brown transmasc. not necessarily based on canon evidence just An Idea) #(and in my mind she's specifically the kind of transmasc lesbian that is transmasc in part bc of their relationship to their lesbianism) #(yknow?) #anyway

[worstsequence]

#historically rage filled day yes its steddie characterizations again yes i struggle with regulating my engage #ment with fandoms in a way thats healthy for me and am still bad at learnimg to scroll #yes i love the fandom yes its the only thing that brings me remotely any joy all these things are true #hate the double standards of the way people write steve vs the way they write eddie. #hate course correcting 'the party is too mean to steve' to Now theyre mean to eddie. #in ways that should definitely be hurting his feelings and yet its seen as cute and silly #steve and robin can be mean to him and its just their dynamic 🤪 #people can fill in empty spots in steves backstory with subtext but with eddie suddenly its all about canon #yes theres 18000 fics and the opposite is presumably out there. i just have never seen it #yes its probably the yaoification. the inability to not strip characters down to fit them into top bottom tropes. #if i read bottom eddie id probab;y find more of this. however i dont want to do that #hate steve meangirlisms cute and charming and everyones like oh steve but eddie has 1000 sins to repent for. #again -resumably a course correction of people writing steve as still having to repent for s1. which i agree is dumb and wrong #but its annoying when steve being judgy is seen as a likeable character trait but eddie does the same thing and suddenly he owes every #character an apology #hate that eddies insecurities are villainized but steves insecure suddenly its eddie and everyone elses job to fix him. #i just want better for both of them neither of them feel like themselves so often. which. again. is an mlm trope problem i think. #also yes steve is a main character and eddie is a dead side character. so more people are attatched to him and he has more stake like #in the narrative. #🕷.archive #eddie meta

there's something that I really love about characters who choose to do things that are inherently dangerous, because they're Good things and they love them and they know the risks, they know that those risks are a given, and anything could happen to any of them and they KNOW it.... but they're still shocked and shaken to their absolute core when it does. the line snaps and they knew it was always an option but they never thought it could truly become reality. they've weighed the risks and made their choices but they don't know what to do when those risks turn real.

#vagueblogging for robin #except this time it's mostly for kaylie and called-kept because this is brought on by a sudden influx of feelings about dick grayson #like yes i do know that his parents were murdered. but a fall like that is still a possibility ANYWAY in that profession #and maybe at that age (dick was 9 right?) he didn't quite Get It but like.... falling was always a risk #and i feel like that's just accepted as a given. but the given and the REALITY of it is completely different #same with vigilante stuff. like there's always the option for injury and loss and death. but they do it anyway #idk much about the whole thing where everyone thought bruce was dead but i feel like this applies there too #bc bruce is dick's dad basically for most of his life. and they KNOW that what they do is dangerous #but it's GOOD and WORTH IT and they bring hope and safety at risk of their own!!! #and then bruce is gone. and it's like.... dick must have known the risks and seen them so many times #but bruce??? batman??? dead (or presumed)?? not something that computes #for... any of them honestly but considering what happened to his parents I'm stuck on dickie bestie rn #idk just thinking about the inherent risks of acrobatics and acroBATics and the way they still don't seem quite real until they're TOO real #someone talk to me about this i feel like I'm going insane i just want to hug that circus boy 😭 #Lu rambles #this post is fairly nondescript and can apply to many many things but I'm gonna tag it for my own blog anyway #batfam #dick grayson #meta finding tag

[abyssembraced]

Okay, so! I have:

Changed the url of the blog (scale-tippers -> abyssembraced)

Changed the colour scheme of the blog (though it's still somewhat subject to change)

Updated the avatar to reflect the new colour scheme (though it's still temporary until I draw a nicer one)

Removed my old promo as my pinned post due to it being outdated (a temporary pinned post with links and stuff will be up in a sec; a new promo will come eventually, probably once I finish writing Rouxls' bio page)

Archived (dropped) Ryunosuke and Robin as muses for the time being.

#ooc #((plus side to making a poll about the url change and not just dming my mutuals directly:)) #((the anonymity and indirectness makes people less pressured to say 'yes' and thus will answer 'no' if they don't want me to change it!)) #((the down side to not talking to people directly:)) #((i do not know who i now need to apologize to for changing my url)) #((and the reason the blog colours are still subject to change are because everything is very ghost-centric right now)) #(( (oh btw tumblr stop trying to correct me on my spelling of ''colours'' i am Right) )) #((''abyssembraced'' is still a lot more fitting for ghost than it is for rouxls even though the new url was supposed to suit both muses)) #((but i chose to go for that name specifically instead of something like ''darkembraced'')) #((so i'm thinking i might change the blog's colours to be black/dark grey and blue/cyan to reference castle town)) #((so that rouxls feels more included given that he's Also a primary muse)) #((also i do still love ryuu and robin but i just. don't have the confidence to write them right now)) #((maybe they'll come back someday! but i'm not gonna promise anything and i wouldn't count on it unless i decide to replay their games)) #((but i don't really like dealing in absolutes so i'm calling them ''archived'' and not dropped)) #((their bios are still available on a separate ''archived muses'' page i just made that can be accessed from the regular muse list))
