BETWEEN US AND animals is a namelessness. We flail around generically — camelopardalis is what the Romans came up with or "giraffe" ( it looked to them like a camel crossed with a leopard ) or get the category wrong — a musk Ox isn't an ox at all but more closely cognate with the goat — and when choosing to name individual animals we pretend they are objects (Spot) or virtues (Beauty) or just other selves (Bob).
— Anne Carson, "Between Us And"

Time passes time does not pass. Time all but passes. Time usually passes. Time passing and gazing. Time has no gaze. Time as perseverance. Time as hunger. Time in a natural way. Time when you were six the day a mountain. Mountain time. Time I don’t remember. Time for a dog in an alley caught in the beam of your flashlight. Time not a video. Time as paper folded to look like a mountain. Time smeared under the eyes of the miners as they rattle down into the mine. Time if you are bankrupt. Time if you are Prometheus. Time if you are all the little tubes on the roots of a gorse plant sucking greenish black moistures up into new scribbled continents. Time it takes for the postal clerk to apply her lipstick at the back of the post office before the supervisor returns. Time it takes for a cow to tip over. Time in jail. Time as overcoats in a closet. Time for a herd of turkeys skidding and surprised on ice. All the time that has soaked into the walls here. Time between the little clicks. Time compared to the wild fantastic silence of the stars. Time for the man at the bus stop standing on one leg to tie his shoe. Time taking Night by the hand and trotting off down the road. Time passes oh boy. Time got the jump on me yes it did.

To feel anything deranges you. To be seen feeling anything strips you naked.

I understand the appeal of writer!Jason Todd while he’s the Redhood but I don’t think YOU understand the appeal of writer!Jason while he’s a pre-teen Robin. That young man writes a field report like it’s a mystery novel, and like what is Bruce even supposed to say “Hey, chum… while the pacing of the report was very intriguing, I need you to be LESS detailed about the color of the suspects ‘emerald green orbs.’” No, he won’t!! because Jason may be a bit annoying but it’s a vast improvement from Dick “What happens with the titans is between me, god, and the emergency room on 34th ave.” Grayson who used to just write “fixed it :)” on cases he completed.
#Tim might’ve been uploading Adopted By The Waynes fanfic to wattpad at 12 but#but Jason was writing Finding Out Your Krptonian fanfic on the batcomputer at 13#AND THAN HE SHOWED IT TO BRUCE?!!?!#HE SHARED IT IRL HE DID NOT HAVE WATTPAD HE HAD GOOGLE DOCS AND A DREAM#dcu#batman#batfam#batfamily#bruce wayne#batkids#jason todd#i really do jsut say shit sorry#red hood#dick grayson#nightwing#taxes talks too much

“I’m actually really into writing. I—”
“Can I read something you wrote?”

#alternative caption was gonna be about writing a new chapter/fic#and my face when someone asks if they can read it before it’s published#but currently it’s just three disparate sections in a google doc with unhinged comments everywhere#and highlights and red text#anyway#fanfic#fic#fanfiction#reaction photo#Ben affleck I understand you
