Hua Cheng essentially cockblocking himself for possibly all of eternity will literally never not be the funniest thing MXTX ever wrote.
Xie Lian was pretty much completely in love with him the second he saw those lanterns (and completely oblivious about it) and then we get the wonderful first kiss underwater moment and Xie Lian is basically drawing hearts around Hua Cheng every time he sees him. While like quietly dying cause he literally has no idea what to do with it. Like at this point he doesnāt even really understand that he is head over heels totally gone for this man.
Until Hua Cheng is like I have a beloved I just havenāt won them over yet. Which he thinks is perfectly reasonable because his self esteem is the worst and he doesnāt understand how he could have won Xie Lian over yet. (Heās only on step 22 of his Marrying Dianxia 3000 step Master Plan ((that he debates throwing out on a regular basis because he doesnāt deserve to even dream about wanting Xie Lian)). So course heās like yeah I have this wonderful noble beautiful beloved I just havenāt won them over yet wink wink nudge nudge.
But Xie Lian is like oh of course obviously I donāt deserve nice things and fuck I actually wanted him so badly Iām actually in love with him and now I will resign myself to never being happy for his sake. (Their combined self esteem is truly a so low itās a hole in the ground which is hilarious because they think the other person is to good for them and unattainable forever because they literally have the same neurosis.) So he starts boxing up his feelings forever constantly wanting Hua Cheng and feeling guilty about it and literally dying inside because he wants Hua Cheng like heās never wanted anyone.
Like essentially books 3 and 5 only happen because Hua Cheng has now cursed them both by saying he has a beloved because Xie Lian believes he isnāt wanted and therefore any nice thing Hua Cheng does is just him being nice and not Hua Cheng pulling out steps 23-34 of his plan thinking he still hasnāt won Xie Lian over. (He has he so has but he shot himself in the foot so badly itās painful to read).
Like thank the Gods Hua Cheng is so unhinged and created the cave of 10000 Gods cause Xie Lian would literally be at his own wedding to Hua Cheng still convinced he wanted someone else and this was in fact a thing they were doing to solve a case together otherwise.
Like he needed something that unhinged to put 2 and 2 together otherwise he never would have caught on heās Hua Chengās beloved. Meanwhile Hua cheng is like š„ŗ heās going to think Iām a weirdo now and Iām only on step 50 of the plan š„ŗ like the two of them wouldnāt have been fucking nasty 2 books ago if he just kept his mouth shut and didnāt cockblock himself so violently.
#I hate them I love them they are both so stupid#hualian#tgcf#tian guan ci fu#hua cheng#xie lian#heavens official blessing#heaven official's blessing#hualian meta#tgcf meta#actually donāt know why Iām tagging this as meta Iām just bullying them but you get it#zee rambles#writing them and wanting to die#zees 2am text posts

The manga industry, especially JUMP, needs to hurry up and do away with weekly scheduling for mangaka. There needs to better regulations put into place for their health and safety because this is pitiful. Two weeks - monthly updates shouldāve already been the standard for the manga industry at this point. These money grabbers will only continue to put the lives of these artists at stake for the sake of capitalism unless some serious changes are implemented.
#itās just???#at the end of the day all these people want to do is draw and write their stories and share them with the world#why is death from stress the end game for so many of them#this should not be part of the package when finally deciding that this is what you want to do with your life#rambling#I still never got over miuraās passing man#and Togashi is still here but heās been suffering from the consequences of overwork#itās just⦠all so bleak#fans just need to learn to be patient if these changes are ever made and to be respectful#your fav series is not gonna die just because you canāt get it right now#Iām glad that gege does this now like he takes a break every 2-3 chapters and thatās good#this should be normalized

Sunrise, Parabellum.
[First]Ā PrevĀ <ā-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#'Good morning. Prepare for war'.#At a glance it may seem like my interest in crossing over Disco Elysium and MDZS is based on the surface parallels.#Protagonists with a bad reputation who find themselves waking up in an unknown location?#The alcoholism? The murder mystery? The stoic and yet deeply patient companion?#Easily tied together. A crossover that writes itself.#But that is not what inspires me to draw parellels between these two stories.#It is about the places at the edge of the world riddled with bomb craters and bullet holes - to serve as a reminder of a lost war.#It is about a dream that was worth fighting for being crushed by larger powers who feared losing that power.#They wanted to build something beautiful and hopeful. It almost was. They lined them up in front of the firing line.#Nearly all the dreamers are gone. Yet the dream lives. Small and patient. It was a worthy dream to live and die for.#And it will wait; thousands of nights and thousands of sunrises.#The bombs may rain down at night but there will always be a sunrise tomorrow. You lived. Keep fighting.#Light your match and set the message ablaze: Un jour je serai de retour prĆØs de toi.#For the dead and departed who believed in it. For those we loved and lost. For the future we hoped for.#One day; I will return to your side.#Anyways. I am once again begging you to play Disco Elysium. Especially if youāre a MDZS fan.#They are stories that have something to say about the value of small kindnesses in big sacrifices.#And about hope at the very end of the world.#(EDIT: I thought this flopped hard but I scheduled it way too far in advance. Oops! Midnight Parabellum it is!)

Family Dinners - dpxdc
"Holy shit, you're Bruce Wayne!" Danny gaped, jabbing a finger at the man sitting at the head of the table.
The bustling dining room goes silent as everyone turns to look at him.
"Danny, who did you think was going to be here?" Tim asks, disbelief plain in his voice and Danny feels his face flush red.
"Sorry, I, uh, I guess I just never put it together. Tim Drake-Wayne. Wayne Manor. It, uh, makes sense now." He laughs sheepishly and scrubs at his neck before slumping back down into his chair.
"Well," Tim says with an indulgent sigh, "at least I know you're not just friends with me for my connections."
"Yeah, I'm really sorry, I just never thought about it, I guess."
Danny sinks lower as everyone around him laughs. Come to dinner, he said, the food is the best, he said, ignore the family, he said. Danny really wishes he'd listened to Tim and just ignored themāalmost as much as he's regretting accepting the offer in the first placeābut... he's having dinner with Batman.
Ancients, that's so weird!
The last time he saw Batman was in the future and, suffice it to say, it was not going well. There hadn't really been time for family dinners there.
Wait. Family dinners?
He peers around the table, openly gawking at everyone as it all clicks into place.
"Everything alright, Danny? Now realising who everyone else is?" Tim asks with a roll of his eyes.
"Uh... something like that..." Danny mumbles as everyone laughs again.
From further down the table, the smallest Wayne scoffs and clicks his tongue.
"I thought you said he was smart, Drake?"
"So, you all do it, too, then?" he asks, ignoring the jibe. Danny's only a little bit jealous as he thinks of how much easier they must have it, how much easier it'd be if his family had been on his side, too. "You all work together?"
"Nah," Dick says from across the table with a brilliant grin. "Tim's the only one that works with Bruce, we all have different jobs. I'm a police officer in Bludhaven."
"Disgusting." Danny blurts out without thinkingābecause seriously, what kind of self-respecting vigilante would also be a police officer?ābefore clapping a hand over his mouth. "Sorry."
The whole table laughs again, the loudest being the blonde girl a few spaces down from Dick. Look, Danny wasn't really paying attention to names when they were all paraded in front of him. Dick only gets remembered because his name is a joke.
Come on, Danny, recover!
"That's, uh, not what I meant, though."
"Oh?" Dick asks, cocking his head slightly to the side. Is it Danny's imagination or does his smile tense slightly?
"Yeah, I mean like, you know, in costume. It must make it so much easier to have everyone together like this."
"Costume? What do you mean?"
Yeah, Danny's not imagining it, everyone tenses up at that. It's really only now that he's realising that this probably isn't how he should bring up that he knows about their... night time activities. In fact, he probably shouldn't be bringing it up at all.
"Uuhhh..." Danny looks wildly around the table as he continues making his stupid noise. Think, think, think! There must be a way out of this!
"Danny?" Tim asks, looking concerned.
"Oh, Ancients, this isn't how I wanted it to go at all," he mutters, slipping even further into his chair. He's almost on the floor now and he so, so wishes it could just swallow him up.
His real first meeting with Batman was meant to be cool! He had planned to be Phantom, maybe save them from a tight spot, prove his worth as a mysterious and powerful ally as thanks for the help Batman gave him in the future.
"Danny, what are you talking about?" Tim starts tugging on his sleeve in an attempt to pull him back up from his pit of despair.
Eventually, Danny relents and sits up straighter, hiding his face in his hands and whining all the while.
"I'm sorry, I just didn't expect him to be here and it threw me off so now I look stupid and it's so embarrassing!" he wails, flailing his arms wide. "Why wouldn't you warn me that Batman was your adopted dad, Tim? Couldn't you have let me know?"
"I'm sorry, what? Danny are you alright? There's no way Bruce can be Batman, look at him!"
"Yeah," the blonde girl laughs from the bottom of the table, "look at him! That's a wet noodle of a man! Batman can actually do things, B is incapable of pretty much everything."
"Thank you, Stephanie," Bruce sighs, massaging his forehead.
It's... Those are the first words Danny's heard Batman say since everything went down and it's enough to knock him out of his embarrassment.
It's really good to hear his voice again. Especially now, when it's strong and healthy and full of personalityāeven if that personality is little more than a tired father right nowāfar better than how it had been, at the end.
Danny sits up, back straight, and grins. He's got this. He remembers it perfectly. Some people count sheep to fall asleep, Danny repeats his mantra to be certain that he'll never forget it.
"Gamma alpha upsilon tau iota mu epsilon, 42, 63, 28, 1 colon 65 dash 9."
Once again, the whole table falls into silence.
"Holy shit..." breathes the other D name (Duke? Danny's pretty sure he's Signal) from opposite Stephanie. "Isn't that...?"
"The time travelling code." The littlest Wayne says stiffly. "We have met in the future?"
"That's not just the time travelling code, Dami." Dick says, looking between Danny and Bruce. "That's the family time travelling code."
Danny's grin freezes in place.
"I'm sorry, what?"
"1 colon 65 dash 9." Dick explains, still flicking between him and Bruce. "It means you've been adopted into the family and we should all treat you as such, no questions asked."
"Tell you what, I'm about to ask a question." Danny says, dumbstruck. "You just told me it was a code to identify time travellers, not anything about being adopted! What the hell, B?"
Bruce looks about as shellshocked as Danny feels.
"We must have been close," he says finally, after opening and closing his mouth like a fish out of water a few times.
"No! Not that close!" Danny reels back, taking a deep breath ready to refute it all, but... "Well, I mean, you found me when I first got stuck, and you helped me get better despite being... And then we fought together against the, uh, bad guy, before he, um, he... before you couldn't."
An uncomfortable beat passes while they all pick up on what Danny tried so hard not to say.
"So, you're not from the future, then, you travelled there and came back?" Tim asks, breaking the tension and leaning forward with a glint in his eye.
"Yeah, it was a whole end of the world thing, but don't worry about it," Danny says with a hand wave, "It's all kosher now, won't ever happen."
"What did happen?"
"Seriously, don't worry about it, we cool."
"How long in the future was it?"
"About ten years? You were pretty spry for an old man, B," Danny laughs, wishing they'd get off the topic of what happened and get back to the adoption bit.
Everyone shares degrees of a cautious smile as they relax out of the shock, and Dickāwhose grin is the biggestāsays, "No wonder you got the family code, you're already riffing on him like one of us. How long were you there for?"
"A week, before I managed to get back to my present and stop him then."
"A week? Jeez, B, that has to set some kind of record, seriously."
"Oh!" Danny says, sitting bolt upright and blinking in surprise before pointing at Dick and bouncing in his seat. "You're Nightwing!"
"What?"
"That's exactly what Nightwing said when Batman told me the code! Makes so much more sense now."
Dick laughs and claps his hands, delighted.
"You were not formally adopted?" The grumpy small oneāDami?āasks, his face pinched.
"I didn't even know I was informally adopted."
"And your parents? Are they alive or dead?"
"Damian, stopā"
"They were dead in the future, but they're alive now." Danny says, looking down. He fiddles with the tablecloth, twisting the fabric around his fingers as he fights down the pang of sadness that he always feels when he thinks of them now. He forces a bright smile on his face and hopes it doesnāt look too strained. "I just, uh, can't talk to them much, anymore."
"Damian," Dick warns, "1 colon 65 dash 9. Treat them as family, no questions asked."
"This is Damian treating him as family, the little turd has no manners." Tim scoffs, rolling his eyes, but he gently bumps shoulders with Danny to knock him out of his funk. Danny can't help but send him a watery smile.
"I have the most exemplary manners, Drake, unlike some people." Damian spits, crossing his arms with a pout. "I was merely ascertaining his status to see how he could possibly fit into the family."
"I know this is all a bit sudden, Danny," Bruce smiles, ignoring Damian and reaching out to lay a warm hand on his arm, "for all of us. But if I felt strongly enough to give you that code after spending a week with you in the future, then you are more than welcome in this family, if you so choose it. I think I can speak for all of us when I say we'd like to get to know you a bit more."
"I know a threat when I hear it, Bruce." Danny snorts. "But, yeah, I get it. I'm sorry this is all so weird, it really wasn't how I wanted to find you again, but... I'm glad I did."
"So are we, Danny." Dick says, with a warm smile. "And formally or not, 1 colon 65 dash 9 means you're family. Welcome to the fun house! No take backs or refunds, sorry. You're stuck with us."

do you think Ʃowyn ever opened up to faramir about grima and how terrible he was not just to thƩoden and Ʃomer, but also to herself? about how icky and uncomfortable grima made her feel? about how he made her feel unsafe in her own home? or is it just my poor farawyn heart that yearns for a hurt/comfort farawyn fic which is beating strongly in my chest?
#farawyn#me when i think of fics i want to read but am too lazy to write them myself#lord of the rings#lotr#faramir#eowyn#faramir x eowyn#i need to see faramir be angry for her#to see him wish he could have killed grima himself!#not in a saviour āiāll do it because you canātā way#but in a āi love you more than life itself and i would die to protect youā way

It's interesting when you unpack why Damian left the Teen Titans. Sure, Tim came back so Damian wasn't really needed anymore, and Damian had that realization, but it wasn't just that. Damian tried to be himself, and it was too much for the Teen Titans to handle. Damian tried to be a bit less like himself (or so he claimed), and it was still too much for the Teen Titans to handle. And when I say "too much to handle" I really mean they didn't have that much tolerance for Damian's behavior or attitude.
Damian wanted to go back to Gotham to work with Dick again because he considered Dick his friend, and because of this, he didn't see himself needing to make friends with the Teen Titans. And from the previous point, we can also take the implication that Damian wanted to be with Dick again because he felt like he could be himself around Dick without the contempt (that's not to say that Damian never annoyed Dick or made him mad, because he definitely did, and Dick and Damian both had trouble getting along with each other in the beginning, but they got used to each other and started having more fun together).
Damian also thought the Teen Titans were annoying "like children." At least, that's what he said to Dick. And since Damian isn't your typical kid, and he doesn't perceive himself to be like other kids his age, I think maybe he felt more comfortable working with someone older like Dick, and he'd obviously be more comfortable working with someone who had more trust and faith in him.
#i really want to relate this to the nightwing must die arc#all the words are jumbled up in my brain though#i keep writing tags about it and deleting all of them#fml okay let me just grab a panel i want to use to try to convey the hundreds of words i want to write on the topic#Dick Grayson#Damian Wayne#Teen Titans (Vol. 3) 92

nothing would be funnier than the bats universe-hopping and finding all these different versions of jason, and shoving in their jason's face that these alternate jasons would not agree with his fatal treatment of criminals (because some of them look straight up happy and have great relationships with bruce + the others).
but then to everybody's surprise, each jason has their own variation of their jason's methods. they literally all have similar opinions, even the ones who didn't die at the joker's hands. some were robin and some were never robin, some were adopted by bruce and others weren't, some lived worse lives than their jason and others lived much better lives-- but they all became their own version of red hood either way.
and jason is just absolutely having the best time looking at the bats' disappointed faces
#by red hood i don't mean that they're all lethal#what they all share in common is that they believe the justice system is fully corrupted and they don't think it works#so murder of repeat offenders or individuals who show no remorse is no big deal to them#it's like ok. life goes on. now how else can i help my fellow victims heal#they might not outright want these people to die but also they wouldn't care if they did or didn't#they care more about the victims and how these people can get help#jason todd#red hood#batman#second robin#dc#(( writing š ))

Tubbo: The life systemā In DND, when a character hits 0 health, they have to do something called a "saving throw," it's a death saving throw. If they roll under 10, they fail that death saving throw, and if you fail 3 death saving throws, your character is dead.
Tubbo: How I'm treating saving throws in the Realm SMP is basically, if you die, it's equal to you failing a death saving throw. [...] If you lose all 3 of your lives, you will be banned off the server for 24 hours, and when you come back, your stats will be reset to 0, you are a new character*, you are dead.
Tubbo: Players on the server are able to attach this to lore, if let's say they're doing a lore character, that character's dead, they can come back with a new one for things like roleplay and lore.** And storytelling! [...] I'm mainly leaving [lore] completely open-ended for the players of the server to tell the stories they want to make. I just want to make the ultimate sandbox for them, and plan events and activities that they can use to develop their own original characters, is kind of my plan.
Tubbo discussed Realm's life system earlier today during stream before Realm SMP opened!
* Not in the literal sense.
** Tubbo isn't saying players HAVE to make new characters when they die 3 times in one day. Tubbo reiterates that he wants Realms to be a sandbox for players to tell the stories they want to make.
#Tubbo#The Realm SMP#December 5 2024#Sorry for the ugly yellow notes in the middle but I don't trust people (note: Twitter users)#Fully expecting people to assume Tubbo wants players to make new characters every time they die. Which is not what he said.#So writing it out for them in giant yellow text because good god nobody in this community has reading OR listening comprehension#Sorry for being a bit snippy in the tags here#I'm just annoyed by people being stupid and whipping other people into a frenzy by spreading misinfo

every december I abruptly remember the same fic concept I've had for literal years where Johnny 13 hosts an absolute garbage Christmas Truce party. Like just the worst party ever. It was supposed to be a potluck but there's no food aside from chip dip Danny brought and ghost weed. Everyone is bored out of their minds.
Except Danny saw on the invitation (which was written on a crumpled receipt from Johnny's pocket, purely because Kitty insisted on at least that, and thrown at him mid fight) that he can 'invite whoever'.
So he'd invited Clockwork.
And as soon as Clockwork arrives everyone loses their minds because uhhhh?? hey THE LITERAL GOD OF TIME is here???
#Danny Phantom#and every year I don't write it in time for christmas lmao#anyway shout out to Johnny's absolute dogshit truce party that gets crashed by god#kitty wanted to see him fail and instead she meets god#and she doesn't even get any ghost weed before it...#clockwork of course knew this was going to be a disaster#but Danny invited him!#how could he say no?#also the observants show up at one point#and bc it's the truce cw convinces them to stay!#so god and government show up to Johnny's truce party#with nothing but chip dip and ghost weed#from invitations written on random garbage#and johnny wonders if he can die twice#currently talking

hating on game of thrones in current year is a bit cringe like girl move on etc. However my complaints are more specific than the average person so I can at least feel like I'm bringing something new to the table. Instead of writing the one bilionth 'they butchered dany we were robbed' post I'm instead going on coke rants about how they character assasinated jaime by making him unfunny and how they didn't give my favorite irrelevant minor characters enough emotional depth and actually now that I'm saying it out loud that sounds worse
#.txt#got#omg I didn't share my show myrcella coke rant on here did I...#tldr her reaction to the incest is stupid+nobody cares about her death on either an emotional or political level which is also stupid#ok cersei cares but she's also super resigned about it and doesnt blame jaime at all even tho she should bc 'I knew she would die'#girl did they lobotomize you what the hell. my beautiful princess with a disorder speak to me š I know you're in there š#people got kinda mad at me for the incest thing btw like 'omg you dont understand grrm at all you're so lame' ??? huh???#I just think she would realistically be less happy about being an incest baby is all. my bad I guess that makes me a puriteen š#also going back to the nobody cares about her thing the fact that tommen is like. completely unaffected pisses me off so bad#I get it neither of them are main characters but like. does that mean they have to not react like people#also like yeah tommen is not a main character but he does have quite a bit of screen time it'd be nice if he was written well#AND both of them are the kids of 2 mcs come on man make me gaf. I mean do gaf but not bc the writing is good. theyre just my canon ocs#getting dangerously close to 'they BUTCHERED baelon targaryen my prince would never' territory with tommen and myrcella lol#the difference is I kinda dgaf about them being book accurate I just want them 2 be well written š#like the reason I get mad at characters not being book accurate is bc the show version is usually worse/less interesting#all the love to my beautiful children ofc but it's not like they have that much going on in the books#so whatever do what you want with them. but do it well

Random thought/question: what would your Tavs/Durge and their significant others like... legit fight about? Not bicker, not argue, but actually get mad and say things they don't mean and have to cool off and talk about it later when calmer heads prevail and they're able to apologize without it sounding forced?
this is such a great question that i needed a whole 24 hours to think about it akdhdjhd
i think gale and cyra probably have small things blow out of proportion (because honestly. kids and work and Tired) and then a Lot of stuff they haven't talked about comes up and it ends with 'how the fuck did forgetting to change the bedsheets turn into This'
i actually feel like dorian and astarion are pretty good 90% of the time but sometimes one of them is in a bad place and is like 'i actually really need to be left alone with this thing right now and i don't want to talk about it' and maybe they're not always great at taking the hint
ashe and halsin have never had a fight ever
#ramble#bg3#i feel like when you smoke a lot of weed and have a lot of polyamorous sex you're mostly chill#for legal reasons that's a joke#i really wanted to say 'none of them ever fight they're great at communicating' but that's just not how people are skfdjdfj#i need to write some delicious angst now whoops#idk what it is but having a horrible argument with someone you really really love is the most heartbreaking thing ever#the gale and cyra one is a self callout bc i'm known to hyperfocus and get stressed/hangry/etc and say/think things i don't mean#bc all the negatives are amplified#eg. i had such a bad commute recently that i would've 100% told a stranger to fuck off and die if anything else went wrong#which is not something i would EVER do unless a lot of things piled up#i do have one (1) thing written for the worst one of these fights gale/cyra ever had but that's for another time

Damn, Light legit thought people would find it ok to set up an explosive trap in your drawer just cuz you didn't want people reading your diaryā
#like... that's even more suspicious than having a notebook titled ādeath noteā with the names of criminals#you do realize that's more suspicious right?#no one would bat an eye if you showed them your death note and said āheyā I write the names of everyone I wish was dead to copeā#you could even add fake pages with the names of people in your day to day lifeā like an annoying teacherā so they don't die#therefore making the claim that's just a stupid notebook with a list of names you want dead seem valid#and the rules? eh just say it's creative writing. maybe even say it's inspired on Kira it's not loke they need to know when you got the note#idiot#death note#light yagami#yagami light

Stephanie: Hey Cass, I heard a story about how you became the leader of the League of Assassins and killed a lot of people.
Cass (eyes downcast, slowly putting her phone down): You cut right to the chase with that.
Stephanie: Yeah, but donāt worry Iām not judging. We all have dark pasts. I just want to hear about it cause I'm curious. What started it? How did you get your wake-up call? What happened in between or afterwards.
Cass: Youāve heard of Slade Wilson, right?
Stephanie: That goof? Yeah. Did he attack you during all of this?
Cass (starting the story): I wanted a father figure, and Bruce was missingā¦
After an hour of hearing the depressing story of brainwashing that her best friend (and future girlfriend) had been subjected to, Stephanie stormed down the halls. She was searching for some special people, knowing immediately where they'd be: the Batcave.
Cass chased after her, pleading for her to calm down.
Cass: Stephanie, hold on, we've buried the hatchet years ago.
Stephanie had already tuned her out, stomping down the stairs to the Batcave, striding past Jason, Tim, Damian, Kate, and Bruce until she found Dick.
Stephanie (enraged): HEY, NIGHTWING!
At first, Dick turned around, a smile brightening his face at the sight of her, but that smile vanished in an instant when she delivered a stinging slap to his cheek.
Dick (eyes wide, shocked): OW!
Stephanie: You⦠You! Penis! You absolute penis! How dare you mistreat Cass while she was going through all that? I knew you were too nice; something had to be buried in that chiseled jawline!
Barbara: Chiseled? Steph, it's more chipped-
Dick (over his shoulder to Barbara): You stay out of this, ex. Stephanie, whatā
Stephanie lightly swiped her hand across Dick's face. It didn't have the same impact; it still wasn't something he liked receiving, but Stephanie was feeling fiery at the moment.
Dick (brows furrowed, annoyed): Quit it!
Stephanie: I'm not done giving you what for! You absolute penis, I get you were distrusting of newbies, I remember you were a bit of a penis to me, but Cass! Cass was going through true... shizz and and you .. you are a penis!
Dick (cupping his sore cheek): Stop calling me a penis!
Stephanie: Stop being one!
Dick: Bruce, you can step in at any time!
Bruce (pretending to talk to Kate): Um, I'm talking to my cousin about something.
Kate (lying to keep watching the spectacle): Just a meeting. You can handle this on your own.
Stephanie (blocking Bruce by standing in his direction): Nah, donāt look at him for help. Youāre being called out for being a jerk to Cass! You couldāve made her turn to the dark side again, or, goodness, take her anger out on you! Would you feel good about that, tubby?
Dick (hugging himself, hurt): Tubby? These insults are so specific and mean! Donāt call me a penis again!
Jason (doubled over laughing): I feel bad for laughing, but this is priceless.
Bruce: I shouldnāt be laughing either, but at least it wasnāt me. Whatās happening here?
Cass (hurriedly explaining as she fidgeted her hands): Steph wanted to know about the time I went insane like Jason and became the leader of the assassins. I mentioned my issues with Dick, but we made amends. I sort of didn't hold back on the tension and arguments we had. Sheā
Stephanie: Is pissed at this eejit!
Stephanie flicked Dick on the forehead making him wince.
Kate: Should we step in?
Bruce: Nah.
Kate nodded in agreement.
Damian (surprised): Did you just call him an idiot with an Irish inflection? You are mad.
Dick (taking accountability): I⦠she⦠this is so old! I admitted I was a jerk back then, but I'm not anymore. And stop assaulting me!
Huffing angrily, Stephanie lowered her hand as Dick instinctively took a step back.
Stephanie: You know what? Dick, I get that you didnāt want her to kill her deadbeat dad or Slade. We donāt kill, well, except Jason, but Iām starting to understand him more!
Jason nodded, continuing to read.
Stephanie: But how you treated Cass during most of her redemption journey... such a penis move!
Dick: I wasnāt⦠she killed⦠And Barbara snapped at her sometimes! Why the hell wonāt you slap her?
Barbara (having silently watched the spectacle): I apologized and she likes me more. Plus I taught her how to read and write more so there.
Dick: I apologized too!
Stephanie: After Alfred stepped in! Youā
Dick: You know calling me a penis cause you can't say the word dick hurts my feelings!
Stephanie (stomping): That's why I'm saying it!
Dick: Alfred is usually the voice of reason, I'm obviously going to agree with him. It's a good thing he did step in or I would've won a fight against Cass.
Cass walked over, stepping between them and lightly pushing Stephanie away with a warm smile.
Cass: Dick, first humble yourself. I would've won that fight. Second, Stephie, I admire you defending me, but Dick and I have made amends. We replaced it with sibling bickering, and Iām not completely innocent. I did throw him out a window, which was wrong⦠even if I still think he deserved it a tiny bit.
Dick (raising his eyebrow): Thatās the closest youāre going to admit it was wrong?
Cass: Yep.
Dick (nodding sadly accepting this: Iāll take it.
Stephanie sighed, stepping away from Dick and thinking silently.
Stephanie: Jason, can Rose stab her father for Cass?
Bruce: Excuse me for interjecting, but do you mean to kill or just maim?
Kate (chuckling): Thatās legitimately a good question.
Stephanie: I want so badly for her to kill him or for you to kill him. But respecting my code and Cassās wishes, can she just stab him to hurt him?
Jason: She might actually have a better method. Iāll get back to you on that.
Jason pulled out his phone and texted Rose. He walked away to handle this in private.
Kate (to Bruce): Aren't you glad he found someone for him?
Bruce: Shut up.
Stephanie (to Cass): Itās a start⦠right?
Cass: He wonāt die? Itās not me plunging the knife, but Iād rather not have phantom blood on my hands.
Stephanie (placing a hand on Cassās shoulder): I can make sure Rose lets him live afterward. Bruce, if you try to stop this, I'm sending my ma after you with a heel in her hand.
Bruce: Just make sure he lives. Thatās all I ask.
Stephanie: Got you, B-Man. You can fire me again if I go against my future girlfriendās rule.
Kate laughed more and walked upstairs to excuse herself, with Bruce following her for a drink after that show.
Dick: Right... I'm not sure how I feel about thisā
Stephanie (pointing at the man): Dick, Iām not too happy with you, so your opinion means diddly squat!
Barbara (laughing, but also reasoning with Stephanie): Steph, you have to understand that we were all going through hell back then. You were there, and Dick could be a bit of a⦠penis.
Dick groaned as he rummaged for ice in the fridge underneath Bruceās deck. Jason could be heard laughing at the insult, joined by Damian's snickers. Even Barbara couldn't hold back on laughing although she felt a little sympathy to Dick.
Tim mostly remained silent, deciding it was wiser to stay neutral and embrace his role as Switzerland rather than take a side.
Stephanie: I get that, and now that Iāve delivered the slap of righteous divine retribution to him, Iām cool with him. Unless he angers her again, then Iām kicking him in the penis while wearing a pointed heel.
Barbara (siding with her surrogate daughter Cass): That's a fair trade off.
Tim: Oh wow. Um, I'm going to step in front of him.
Tim walked up in front of Dick, positioning himself as a buffer. Dick appreciated the gesture, grateful for the support in the heat of the moment.
Damian (enjoying the chaos): Thatās very funny to think about.
Stephanie (to Tim and Damian): As for you two⦠Tim, Cass actually had a lot of nice things and wild adventures to say about you. Youāre cool with me too. Damian⦠eh, not anything scandalous.
Damian (satisfied): Alright, thatās great to hear.
Tim (hand on his chest): Cass, thank you.
Cass: It was just me being honest and venting. I tried to make it unbiased.
Dick: Didnāt work! She slapped me! Ow, by the way!
Stephanie (indifferent, crossing her arms): Sorry or whatever.
Cass: Iām sorry as well. When I spoke of our feuding, it wasnāt to paint you as a villain. I only wanted to give accurate details and I got my payback when I replaced your human shampoo with dog flea and tick shampoo.
Stephanie (surprised): You what?
Dick (shouting with a triumphant tone): I knew it!
Barbara (chuckling): Thatās why your hair smelled like oatmeal for a month.
Dick: Jokes on her... that was great for my hair and I used the rest for Hayley! And yes, that is a flex for me. Cass, I forgive you. Stephanie, I choose to forgive you for now. To make it up to you both, Iāll take us all out for dinner.
Stephanie: You should probably have that wallet with you, then, cause weāre going to Applebee's.
Dick: At least it's not Ruth Chris. Iām going to rest for the next hour. Barbaraā¦
Dick lightly slapped Barbara on the back of the head and then ran off. Barbara laughed, relieving any tension.
