It terrifies Bruce, a little, that the first time Batman and Robin pull up to a mauling victim, Robin is acutely calm.

The girl is young, and Batman and Robin were made known to the scene pretty quickly as Batman scares off the dog with a taser.

Despite being the adult, he balks a little at how well Dick handles the toddler in front of him.

Later on, when the girl is seen by paramedics and the mother is finally calmed after being assured that the only physical damage present would be some scarring on her left leg, Bruce takes Dick out for ice cream for being so brave.

Then again, Dick was the one to threaten death upon his parents' murder at the ripe age of 9.

But the incident is filed away, deep in the archives of the BatComputer.

Dick is much older, and has seen much more, but he's still calm when one of his brothers is half-torn apart by a shark on an impulsive surfing trip with their hero friends.

Everyone is panicking because as much as they'd loathe to admit, seeing something that gory is so completely different than being in costume (because being in costume means they're at the very least prepared).

But Dick is calm, and his first aid more immaculate than ever.

When someone asks him about it, how he can stay so calm, he's suddenly 7 again.

He's 7 again and watching his Uncle-not-really-uncle getting mauled by one of the sick tigers. He's watching as his father rushes to help and calms the crowd down.

When he asks his father why he was not scared, he receives this.

"I was terrified for my friend, but panic makes your hands shake, makes you slow. He did not need my fear, he needed me."

Dick tells them that.

updates from the stan o' war

[inkskinned]

the tradwife movement is the same as it has always been - back in the kitchen, back to breeding - it just has better branding.

when i was younger, i hated pink. i was not like other girls. this is now something i'm embarrassed of - this was not me being a "girl's girl."

but it was expressing something many of us felt at the time: i literally wasn't what girlhood was supposed to be. this is a hard thing to explain, but you know when you're not performing girlhood correctly. it isn't as easy as "i liked x when girls liked y" - because there were other girls that liked x, too - but i never figured out exactly the correct way to like x, or to be interested in y.

now there is the divine feminine. this is the same rhetoric it has always been: women are biologically driven to like pink and ribbons and submitting to our husbands.

the problem is that the patriarchy found a better PR team. because yes, actually, i want every woman to have the choice to be a homemaker. i also want her taken seriously for her legitimate home-making labor. i want her to be recognized as also having a job, just unpaid. i want men to have this opportunity, too.

but it is no longer "i made this choice and I love it." instead it is a sixteen-paragraph rant about how selfish it is that my generation isn't having kids. instead it's long videos about how if you feed your children processed foods, you're going to kill them. instead it is "this is what womanhood is supposed to be. i feel bad for any other choices you're making."

the shame spiral is just prettier. it is large houses devoid of personality. it is the implication: if you don't have this, you aren't happy. the solid, everlasting assurance: women are actually supposed to be submitting. this is the default. this is the natural state of things. all other attempts inflict suffering.

but you can no longer say i'm not like other girls. you can no longer reject this image completely. you cannot find it revolting, even if you know that the underbelly is toxic and festering. sure, it is the same repackaged patriarchy. but the internet does not have shades of grey. you should support and reward other women! your disgust is actually internalized misogyny. not because you are seeing a vision of yourself the way they're trying to train you to be. not because you feel her ghost pass within an inch of your earlobe. not because your father will eventually ask you - why can't you be like her?

because they figured out how to make it beautiful: women will sell other women on this idea, and we will find the singular loophole in feminism. sure, she's shaming you in most of her videos. sure, she implies that a different life is obscene. but she just wants you to be happy! you'd be happier if you were listening!

and the whole time you're sitting there thinking: i'd actually just be happier if i had that kind of money.

Was looking at refs and since Viktor has two different leg braces I was wondering, do we think he wears them simultaneously?? The refs don't perfectly line up perspective-wise so it's hard to tell but parts of the one he wears during the Hexcore scenes look like they could maybe line up with the brace that he wears over his clothes, but also some parts really don't and look like they'd be super uncomfy. Also HOW does he take these on and off. Experts weigh in

I love the idea of rumi being a little unsettling. A little weird even before her demonic side got enhanced. I think she deserves it, as a little treat. Saw a fic describe her as spooky but cute and YES. THAT'S EXACTLY HER VIBE.

I love the idea of her being a creepy kid tm and scaring the living shit of Celine and then later, Zoey and Mira.

Of course she tries to control those quirks the best she can (bc the moment Celine notices them, she trains her to not exhibit) but she still slips sometimes (specially with her girls)

Here's a list of some ideas

Her appearing behind them randomly and no one noticing because she's so fucking quiet?? Like what the fuck how do you just not make one single sound while walking girl???

She has that very very intense stare (you know. The creepy child stare tm) when she's really focused on something (like a predator hunting a prey) that gives the girls chills when they're her focus.

related to the last one but she blinks less than the average person. Sometimes it will be like some good minutes and she won't blink at all.

Her fangs were always a little more noticeable then normal even before her demon side got stronger. She's always got those vampire-ish fangs (+ the combo of her having a creepy stare + a creepy little smile with her fangs. 🤌 *Mwah* chef kiss)

You know how animals eyes reflect in the dark? Her eyes do that too. Rumi appearing randomly at Celine's room at night and her eyes glowing a little: I threw up 😥 and Celine trying to come back to the land of the living after being scared shitless. And then, at the tower everytime the girls went to the bathroom or the kitchen, they would get jumpscared by rumi's eyes while she got a snack or something in the middle of the night and the next day when they try to talk with her about it she would be like: HAHAHA WHAAAAA- noooo, pfft- you're definitely just very sleep deprived, girl. And the girls would be like: y'know what you're right (bc they're truly are always sleep deprived and tired as fuck bc of their two jobs so *shrugs* "just my mind playing tricks I guess")

High pain tolerance!! Self sacrificial tendencies and low self esteem go brrrr.

^ Added to that: very quick healing. "How did that deep ass cut got healed so quick? It's been only 3 days!??" "Guess I am just honmoon's favorite!"

Very strong. Ridiculously strong. The girls always admired her for this but never suspected it deeply bc they're like "nah, she's just this strong bc she's been training since she was a child under Celine's VERY intense training program hahaha, that's our leader 😻"

[egophiliac]

So.... what are your thoughts on Ace's UM, if you haven't been asked this already?

sneaky magic for the sneakiest boy

no but really, I think it fits him really well! I had thought his UM would probably involve something kinda sleight-of-handy or pickpockety! and I looooved that it made such a nice loop-around back to episode 1. ❤️ I was. kind of half-expecting him to just run out and punch Riddle in the nose again. but instead this time 'twas he who offed the queen's head! it was great! and he did it while stone-cold terrified out of his mind! because Ace is the only remotely normal or well-adjusted person at NRC and therefore the only one who is like "we're going to literally die, this is super effed up". but he did it anyway!!!! I AM SO PROUD

Okay but like…. What if instead of using mirrors they had to stuff this whole cast of people into a bus/van

It’d be a little funny
