give me a batman comic where their trauma actually affects them.
bruce gets to be affected by trauma. his parents haunting his narrative and him making it everyone’s problem. his decline after jason died. his hatred of guns. damian does, too. his hallucinations of alfred. the inner turmoil he goes through almost everytime he sees talia.
but it’s literally only them except for a select few comics. with everyone else, everything is forgotten when the next run starts.
give me a dick grayson who is so terrified of loss from losing so many people that he worries himself sick everytime any of his siblings don’t answer a phone call.
give me a jason todd who can’t stand to be in small spaces due to waking up in a coffin and digging himself out of his own grave.
give me a stephanie brown who still thinks about her child everytime she sees a baby.
give me a tim drake who has to force himself not to flinch everytime there’s an explosion because of how many people he killed in the league of assassin bombings.
give me a cassandra cain that reverts back to silence when she gets hit with fear gas.
give me a duke thomas that spends every spare second he has researching potential cures for his parents.
like?? give me a comic where they’re human.
I'm goanna be so honest, I've been feeling weird these past few weeks. I'm regressing more, I'm falling into these periods of weird grief and sadness, but I've also had these high points where I'm genuinely happy. It's so weird to not be floating all the time, but it just makes the times when I am noticeably more intense. I know it has something to do with me gaining freedom and it's over all a good thing! I know I have support to help me through my inevitable spiral from being let out of such a constantly traumatic space, but at the same time it's really uncomfortable. I end up being at one extreme or the other right when it's inconvenient and I can't really fix it? Like I'm losing some of my masks. I dunno, transitions are hard
i love fur, i love leather, i love wool, i love long lasting materials without plastic in them that will decompose and go back into the ecosystem after serving me well for several decades.

You know that feeling that you're living in a nightmare?
ALSO the fact that tim drake canonically watches bruce get stabbed, spies on the titans tower, knows all of the titans schedules, spies on dick’s apartment with kori, breaks into dick’s old apartment, follows him to the circus, has kept newspaper clippings of batman and robin since he was able to read, knows what art bruce wayne collects, had dreams about being saved by batman and robin and y’all REDUCE his stalker tendencies to just he followed them and took pictures….. no. no, we need him crazier.
Bruce knows he can’t scold his children on gala etiquette because he himself had none.
Baby Bruce was a kid who imitated an innocent baby rabbit in looks only. He’ll sit nice and quiet between his parents, watching everyone with his autistic eyes, and suddenly be like.
“Uncle Philip dwinks a lot. Daddy doesn’t wike any of you. “ He gives Carmine Falcone a Look. “Especially you. He says you give him tummy ache.”
Then he goes back to being cute and eating his dessert. Alfred chews back a laugh.
I remember a time when dick cheney was considered by many to be the most evil man in the world, maybe with the exception of henry kissinger. Between his role in the invasion of Iraq and the unsubstantiated "weapons of mass destruction" claim, the creation of the patriot act and the expansion of government surveillance power, and the controversy over Halliburton (of which he was the previous CEO of) generating billions of dollars of revenue during the war on terrorism... Idk man I'm just saying I wouldn't be excited about this guy endorsing my candidate. To say the least.
im a fucking sucker for the “character gets so badly injured that they can’t think clearly and start calling for help in a distressingly vulnerable way.” characters who start using nicknames for their friends they haven’t used since they were kids. characters who start begging for their brother they haven’t seen in years to be there. characters who would usually use their parents’ names or call them mother/father/etc crying out mama when they go down. u understand.
