Why would Spanish betray me like this???
the way Bruce is his best friend because they play together, all of those cases they solve might as well be sudoku's in the morning, the blood tests n antidotes and learning how to disinfect a wound might as well be science experiments, sparring and exercise, Dick saw it all as playing not as work. And that's why he is a workaholic in his adulthood the line between work or play and downtime is so blurry for him. That's why his arc during v2 is so heartbreaking we're seeing the destruction of all his loved ones and of the way he plays too 😔✋🏼
Bruce is Clark’s “my senses/powers are going insane right now, please cover for me” person and no one in the Justice League has ever fully caught on because Bruce (as Batman) will just suddenly start picking a fight with Hal Jordan (who is always down to argue) and distract the entire League long enough for Clark to either leave or get a handle on whatever is bugging him.
Jason Todd is the meme lord of all the batkids and u can't convince me otherwise
Do you want me to take the day off to be with you 😭
At what point do the viewers start thinking Jess' videos are staged and what do the lanterns do about it
hello! excellent question
it's pretty early on, actually, as the audience becomes increasingly confused and suspicious of the fact that hal never knows what's going on.
this man is so horribly out of date with current affairs that he's genuinely shocked when jess tells him obama is no longer president and hasn't been in years. the theories come in from the viewers: confusion, brain damage, early onset dementia.
or maybe, just maybe, he's faking it.
part of the draw around hal is that he's very out of touch on internet things. this is thought to be because he's older but that's not quite it. hal just doesn't spend enough time on earth to ever bother to know what's going on and even though he's staying on earth a lot more these days, he's not the type to actively research the president.
there's other stuff too. it's entirely unbelievable that jess casually knows two green lanterns and everyone else there is a complete enigma and also really fucking weird. hal also seems a little too clueless at times while doing certain things and trends that are particularly connected to pop culture (he barely knows who taylor swift is, someone help him)
it gets to a point where jess is facing outright accusations of faking everything and things kinda do spiral. she doesn't tell hal (lord knows the pta meets do enough damage to this man's blood pressure already) but she does tell the others.
kyle suggests some kind of qna. jess vetoes that because hal probably wouldn't want to. jo says to maybe do some kind of challenge to distract? jess considers that but it's a fat maybe. simon kinda just grumbles that there's really nothing they can do because anything could be edited on the internet and they'd never have the trust of the masses. no one could ever get how weird hal is in person. jess's eyes light up.
the next dozen videos are all just to showcase how fucking odd this man is. he eats a spoonful of cinnamon with a straight face. hal even turns to jess and asks if she's got more (she doesn't give him any). he does the ice bucket challenge. hal barely flinches. the internet learns that hal jordan cannot do the worm but can toss jess and kyle into the air like a cheerleader effortlessly. his favourite movie is top gun and he doesn't know there's a sequel until jess tells him on camera (he then spends two minutes frantically googling before bolting out of the room to ask john if they have it on streaming). he can fly jets. he watched his dad burn to death (this garners a lot of alarm over the internet and gets zero follow up from jess). he dated a ceo. he has no clue what queer labels are but is 'auntie hal' just as much as he's 'uncle hal'. he's (allegedly) married to a man (no one knows to who and it's driving them nuts).
the point is, hal jordan is a wholeass enigma so who cares if he doesn't know who the damn president is?
the internet drop the entire thing pretty quickly. the lanterns become uber famous shortly afterwards and no one ever gets any answers ever. jess comes out on top as she always will.
MANY ARE THREATENING TO KILL THEMSELVES IF DICKROY LOSE. OTHERS ARE DISCUSSING WHICH MEN THEY WISH TO SEE IMPREGNATED. KING YAOI SEES ALL WITH HIS OMNISCIENT EYE, AND HE IS EXPERIENCING, FOR THE FIRST TIME, A MODICUM OF REGRET.
The book this is from is justice league: 5 minute stories.
The reason Clark is chasing Hal on a motorbike is because he's been whammied by Poison Ivy and whammied Clark isn't that smart (Hal just likes motorbikes I guess)
The book includes other highlights such as:
Lex's cheesy lines
Aquaman with a shark plushie
Clark and Bruce undercover
And a smiling, waving Hal
I was at the bookstore the other day and I found a book featuring Hal being chased by Clark on a motorcycle
I still hate writing fighting sequences but I think I'm getting better at them
Hope you don't mind me putting my two cents in but I don't think that torture is really something that cass would do. Because of her ability to physically read people she's pretty in tune with what kind of pain they are in (and why killing Faizul hit her so hard) I don't think that emotionally or morally she would be able to torture someone.
What do you think are Cass' views on torture?
Hmmm honestly I think she doesn’t like it. She more subscribed to the terrify the shit out of the criminal to get an answer but she’s endlessly compassionate I really don’t think she approves of torture in any circumstance. Also given her abusive childhood, she stays away from that kind of unnecessary violence.
I feel like- Outside of the whole hero aspect, Kon is one of those friends who are very close, very physical, but—in a somewhat brusque and annoying way LAKSDASK That kind of friend who, when he pats you on the back, accidentally break you like a stick.
Kon is like that, AND HE KNOWS IT- THAT ALIEN TANK KNOWS IT, AND HE KEEPS DOING IT BECAUSE HE'S LIKE A HUSKY MIXED WITH A ROTTWEILER.
