people still don’t understand batman’s rogue gallery and what they represent to him. hollywood i will kill you. listen: each batman villain challenges a different aspect of his character and/or philosophy, and it is why grim dark batman was never meant to work

joker: chaos and order.

the foil to batman’s suppressed madness. bruce is discipline; none is above the code and justice. “you’re just one bad day away from being like me” WRONG!! bruce wayne has not had a good day since he was 10 years old. every good thing that happens to him is followed by 100 bad things. he is the universe’s punching bag. and yet he persists, does he not? does he not still believe in goodness in spite of it all? suck my dick joker he does not think of you AT ALL you are nuisance to him he wants to spend the one day off he has every year with his family and friends and you had to ruin it with ur lame jokes and terrorist attacks

riddler: obsession and intellect.

the foil to batman’s ego. bruce wayne is one of the smartest people in the world, by way of writer favouritism. wdym you outsmarted brainiac, a being of pure intelligence, just because ur the author’s favourite pretty princess? alright king whatever u say. but he never lets it rule him. his intelligence is a tool to of protection; it’s a shield, not a sword. he’d never raise it against the innocent. edward uses his intelligence to prove superiority, that he is better. he is batman without humility, and that is why he will always lose, because intelligence is nothing without wisdom

the penguin: wealth and corruption.

the foil to batman’s class. they’re both billionaires, Gothamite socialites. oswald embraces his privilege and uses it to oppress the poor. bruce wayne understands his privilege and uses it to pull others up. “you wear a mask too” yeah and it’s prettier than urs u ugly bitch. oswald’s socialite mask is a polished classy persona that disguises his inner evil. bruce’s socialite mask is just a himbo and remains true to his desire to help people

mr freeze: love and grief.

foil to batman’s ability to move on from the past. victor fries cannot let go of his wife and makes it everybody else’s problem. this is also the philosophy of grimdark batman, which is why it cannot apply to batman’s true character. bruce wayne is traumatized from his parents’ deaths, but it also inspired him to become the person who he wished had saved him in that alley. how many times has he looked into the eyes of a scared child on patrol and saw himself? he became the saviour for his 10 year old self left in that alleyway. he was able to heal; yes, his parents deaths has shaped him into the man he is, that’s literally what life does. healing doesn’t mean the grief will shrink, but your world grows bigger around it. he has a family again, built by his own hands

scarecrow: fear and power.

the foil to batman’s darkness. batman is iconic for instilling crippling terror into others by a mere look, psychics hate him because his mind is a screaming hellscape, he dresses like a bat because when he was a kid he fell into a hole filled with bats and he associates it with fear. jonathan uses fear to control the helpless, bruce instills fear in evil to protect the righteous. “you’re just as ruled by fear” WRONG!!! batman is ruled by love. it’s not fear that powers him when he drags his mangled, half-dead body off the streets at every dawn to go home for a costume change and immediately go to a charity gala for disadvantaged youths named after his street-rat son. it’s not fear that inspired him to keep lollipops in his utility belt for the children he saves. it’s not fear that makes him do the same old shit of throwing you fuckers into that useless max security prison twice a week after getting his shit rocked, knowing full well he’d have to do it again in a few days, instead of just killing you.

two-face: duality and justice.

the foil to batman’s divided self. harvey started off as a batman, a lawyer wanting to do good. his trauma split him, but bruce integrated it into himself. bruce wayne does not reject his pain, he lets it shape him and he asks himself: “ok that sucked. how do i make sure nobody else will experience that?” harvey dent is completely split, indecisive in his morality, good and evil depends on the flip of a coin. but batman? people say that bruce wayne is the mask and batman is his true self. dawg do u think his kids call him batman? that’s some shit he’d say in his 20s when he was figuring himself out but he’s a middle aged father now and his children would drag him to filth if he says his black-leather bat fursona is his “true self”. they are all him. brucie wayne isn’t completely his mask either, because it’s the persona he uses to fuck with rich people and you know full well he’d delights in that to the bottom of his heart

his rogue gallery is a mirror to each aspect of himself. everything high-brow reddit bros and zack snyder says about batman’s edgy true self is literally disproven by the people batman spends his life trying to save. he’s not on the edge of villaindom; he stares his inner evil that takes on the faces of broken people in the eyes every night and says “this isn’t the way forward”

wdym the autistic cat clock from date everything is voiced by eren fucking jaeger (his older self would be like. a feral evil cat who shits on ur bed)

[duckysprouts]

he got beautiful princess disorder 😍

in many ways. here is his idea of meeting reiner’s mom, who is expecting the nice girl with dark hair and green eyes that reiner blabbed about out of panic

she ended up hating him anyway because she found out “erin” is half-turkish lmao

[duckysprouts]

i love the way the fandom talks about jaime lannister because whether u love or hate him, everyone is just like: “stinky loser!” “bad cat!” “greasy old man!” but he’s literally one of the most beautiful and majestic characters in canon and most of the trashing done to his appearance is from his own perspective because he’s dysmorphic as hell. even covered in his own shit, the mother of the boy he crippled calls him beautiful. even on death’s door and with an infected amputated hand, the woman he’s tormented called him half corpse half god. he’s drenched in pretty privilege, the only actually ugly thing about him is his personality

i think this is also why brienne works so well for him, because she’s lived her whole life being judged for her own appearance, so of course she knows looks don’t mean shit. the only man she’s ever loved, she loved him for seeing her heart. brienne is basically a unit of measurement for jaime’s redemption, because the better he becomes as a person, the more she likes him.

[duckysprouts]

in celebration of jaime lannister getting me in trouble (in true lannister fashion, dragging down random people simply for existing within their vicinity), i’ve prepared a selection of art of me trashing his ass

[duckysprouts]

What if Reiner got with squishy Eren instead?

they would simply not do that i fear

[duckysprouts]

hey im new to your account and i was wondering what is spiky eren? like i know who eren is but whats spiky eren?

gestures towards convenient timeline map

[duckysprouts]

just ignore any proshipper/anti asks, at this point people just use it as an excuse to pick someone to harass/lecture about why one is better than the other one

yeah i think i stepped on a landmine lol, the anon who asked rlly hit me with a thousand year curse

people are explaining it to me and are kinda contradicting themselves, and some of u guys are pointing out why people might be thinking im either, so i’ll just say this:

i won’t ever draw underaged stuff. that is all.

i don’t actually ship cersei and jaime, sorry. but the idea of fucking ur twin because they look exactly like is SO absurd that i’m looking at it like a radagon and marika situation. i ship jaime with brienne and cersei with therapy

the spiky eren thing is like. yeah he’s toxic as hell but can we all acknowledge that he committed genocide in his past life so this is like a step up🥹 and also reiner is sorta into it because eren is obsessed with him unconditionally and he was raised on his mom’s very conditional love so it’s sorta refreshing

someone sent me like a pdf file of the lore and definitions and i just want to draw pictures 🫠

[duckysprouts]

okie thank u bby🫶

this is all jaime lannisters fault btw

Wait are you a proshipper?????

what is that

siblings of war: ares and athena

Brutality feasts on his offerings while his older sister Tactics stands watch

i like to imagine that because ares embodies the misery and bloodlust of warfare, he also embodies the aftermath. when his champions triumph, he becomes the tall, beautiful hero which history books portray winners as, but when his side fails he will physically take on the appearance of an emaciated child that gorges on the guts of war horses and human corpses (always sacrificed to him without fail, the battlefield is his altar)

athena, her father’s beloved daughter, always grew faster than her brother. she was the oldest, yes, but their ages became more evident as war tactics, strategy, and weaponry became more advanced. with each new scientific, methodical, or philosophical breakthrough jn the name of war she seemed to age, become more elegant and handsome, more cold and intelligent.

but brutality is an ageless song, and from the moment the first man raised his fist to strike down another until present day, violence for the sake of violence had never developed past instinctual bloodlust. ares’ adult form came to be unnaturally, after eons of his ritualistic feasting, his muscles and sinew and bones stretched and grew because of the blood he consumed.

athena’s marble temples spring up across the land, her offerings are hot wines, fat calves, olives and blue grapes, perfumes and spices and incenses served on silver platters by maiden hands. her brother’s face is covered in gore and his red eyes seem even more wicked on his skinny face. their father does not look at him because his gaze is honest and truthful. but the eyes of kings never have room for ugly things.

cersei just wanted herself all along and her male clone happened to be the closest thing she could get

[duckysprouts]

just thought about jaime lannister again. fuck. that rat monkey bastard. he is privileged, he’s richer than most bloodlines combined, he looks like a girl, he’s almost 40, he has mommy issues and daddy issues and sister issues and brother issues, his name means ‘i love’, he’s been unserious all his life, he used to be the best swordsman in the land, he is disabled, he is blond, he’s used to crossdress so that his twin sister can play with swords while he learned to sew, his fursona is a lion, he is greying, he’s in love with a girl he’s been bullying the entire time they’ve known each other, he wants to be topped by her, he used to fuck his sister, he’s washed up, he has body dysmorphia, he fought a bear, he’s the only reason his disabled brother is alive, he wants to save everyone, he can’t save anyone, he watched his children die, he killed his king, he kept his promises

[duckysprouts]

reiner is SO funny in seasons 1-3. bad decisions all around, outstandingly so. it’s almost like he’s a kid who has been without parental guidance since he was 12 and even then it was shitty
