bat boys and the flu !

What I imagine

• Dick:

The King of Whining. He complains about his headache and body aches everywhere, but in reality, he never actually rests. Instead, he experiments with bizarre remedies to get rid of the flu quickly, creating absolute chaos. The worst part? His constant whining makes everyone underestimate how sick he really is—until he completely crashes and starts falling asleep in the weirdest places. Honestly, dealing with sick Dick is a disaster… if not for Tim’s spleen!

• Jason:

Strangely enough, he becomes surprisingly calm and obedient. He actually stays put, listens to instructions, and lets people take care of him. But then, the fever-induced nightmares start, and he begins unconsciously reaching out to hold people’s hands. Once he’s better, though? He yells in denial and absolute frustration. (“I held whose hand?! No. You’re all delusional!”) Sick Jason might just be the most embarrassing Jason—to himself.

• Tim:

Lives in complete denial. He ignores every symptom, insists he’s fine, and goes about his life as usual—until his entire system dramatically crashes. But the worst part? He’s the least cooperative patient ever. He genuinely believes he can handle himself, and everyone trying to help is just annoying. In the end, though, he has no choice but to give in as they force him to rest and take care of him.

• Damian:

Scoffs at everyone’s weak immune systems, taunting them for falling victim to “pathetic germs.” Drinks his milk proudly, sticks to his healthy habits, and acts superior. But in the end? The moment his temperature rises even slightly, he face-plants onto the floor. And just like that, he’s suddenly wrapped up in a blanket, reluctantly accepting the care he definitely didn’t need (or so he claims).

What you think?

If the Batboys had a stalker:

Dick: He would be completely clueless . His stalker would break a bone trying to keep up with his acrobatics, end up in the hospital, go through multiple surgeries, and curse Dick Grayson—the completely unaware idiot—for the existence of this nightmare.

Jason: He would catch on the second time and confront the stalker—by choking and “re-educating” them with a couple of broken ribs. After some desperate, tearful pleas for mercy, Jason would forgive them… only for the stalker to start following him again.

Tim: He would turn the tables and start stalking the stalker instead, driving them to the brink of madness with his unpredictability and mind games. He’d laugh mischievously, treating it all like a game. In the end, the stalker would repent on their own and devote themselves to a religious life.

Damian: He would actually engage in a debate with the stalker, explaining that, yes, a boy of his stature deserves to be followed, but the stalker’s current approach is completely unacceptable. He would then proceed to discipline them for their incompetence.

I can’t put it into a prompt, but—who would be the most protective of each other in the Batfamily?

Unexpectedly, I imagine Dick would be the most protective of Jason. Despite their bickering and differences, he can’t help but be gentle with him.

Jason, on the other hand, would be the most protective of Damian. In a way, he sees something of himself in him—growing up in violence. So, his annoying little brother should be able to stay annoying in peace.

Then there’s Tim—he would absolutely lose it if someone hurt Dick. He sees him as his first spark of passion for the Batfamily, the first thread that tied him to this life. His big brother. And if anyone dares to harm Dick, Tim would act with merciless brutality.

And Damian? He can’t stand anyone hurting Tim—except for himself. That replacement infuriates him, but at the same time, it fuels his desire to protect him from any harm.

They’re weird, illogical—but somehow, it makes perfect sense to me.

Yeah I knew that why I mentioned

( this doesn’t negate the role humans played in his suffering, but his pain was never truly about humans versus mutant)

In X-Men: First Class, it’s ironic that the man who killed Erik’s mother later became a mutant himself.

Of course, this doesn’t negate the role humans played in his suffering, but his pain was never truly about humans versus mutants.

Erik failed to see that his suffering was caused by a cruel individual, not by an entire group. Yet, rather than rejecting that cruelty, he longs to embody it—to become one of the powerful in a world that has wronged him.

‏"تأمّلت في النعم فوجدت أن من أعظم النعم التي قد لا يتفطن لها الكثير ، نعمة الانشغال بالنفس وعدم الانشغال بما عند الناس، نعمة إقالة العثرة و حبّ الستر عليهم ، نعمة تمنّي الخير لهم وكفّ الأذى عنهم .. وإنّ من أكبر الدلائل على صحة إيمان المرء أن يُحبّ لأخيه ما يُحب لنفسه."

Last post after rewatching x men apocalypse

I believe the trauma Charles endured in this movie is severely overlooked.

His first encounter with Erik happened through Cerebro, where he witnessed Erik’s desperate memories and the tragedy that befell him. Charles, as always, was ready to offer love and support, but Erik—broken and consumed by darkness—chose a different path. Given his nature and the betrayals he has faced, his reaction is understandable, though certainly not justified. After all, the very humans he seeks to destroy include his own mother, his wife, and his daughter.

Regardless, instead of turning to a friend, Erik decides to offer a sacrifice on a silver platter—or rather, on Charles’ metal wheelchair—to Apocalypse. He has no idea what the entity intends to do with Charles, but it’s clear that whatever it is, it will only bring him harm.

As for Erik’s betrayal, it wasn’t entirely surprising, but this time, it hit harder because of the circumstances.

Charles wasn’t just collateral damage in Erik’s plans—he was the sacrifice itself. Along with the psychological and physical violation he endured, this made his experience in the film one of the most brutal and impactful, yet it wasn’t given nearly as much focus as it deserved.

Yet despite all of this, Charles does not respond with anger or resentment. He still hopes Erik will see the goodness within himself (which he eventually does—but only after Charles loses his hair, of course! 🧍). But it’s all in vain.

‎‏For Charles, even when Erik betrays him, he doesn’t view it as outright treachery. Instead, he sees a broken person making destructive choices due to his pain. That’s why he never truly gives up on him. However, the problem with this level of understanding is that it makes Charles the biggest victim. He’s always the one who gets hurt because he refuses to set boundaries.

( in DOFP charles wasn’t himself)

Anyway!

Apocalypse attacks Charles in the one way he would hate the most—by forcing him to use his powers to manipulate others, stripping them of their free will. In mere seconds, we see just how powerful Charles truly is when Apocalypse compels him to disarm the world and send a global message of terror.

Losing control over himself was the worst thing that could happen to someone like Charles, who built his entire philosophy on free will and choice.

he was desperately resisting. And when he is finally rescued, it is Raven who falls into Apocalypse’s grasp.

Acopalyps calls out, Come Charles!

Tears fill his eyes—he was ready to surrender himself for Raven anyway, saying, He wants me. But the process reveals a terrifying truth: this was never about Charles as an individual. If Apocalypse controls him, he controls the entire world. We can see the tears in his eyes as he realizes this.

And so, Charles is forced to fight again within his own mind—only to lose.

And then, at long last, Uncle Erik decides to step in. (After Charles had already lost his hair, of course! 🧍)

I think people severely underestimate the trauma Charles went through in this film—the violation, the misuse of his power, the betrayal by a friend… I would mention the loss of his hair, but that seems to be the only part everyone actually cares about.( idont blame them though)

‏It feels like the everyone took Charles’ trauma for granted because he’s always expected to carry burdens without complaint. This is a recurring issue with leader-type or morally grounded characters—they’re expected to be strong, so their personal struggles are often overlooked .

It is frustration that the film / fanfics explores other characters’ trauma in depth that why my post was so long! To talk about it 🙂‍↔️🤍

And thank you.

The first time I watched this film, my attention was mainly focused on Erik and Peter. It’s strange how much one’s perspective shifts upon rewatching. (It’s still interesting, of course—just not nearly as much as Charles.)

I recently rewatched X-Men: First Class, Days of Future Past, and I must admit—I’ve completely fallen for this version of Charles.

He is an exceptional character. Despite his ability to read minds and his deep awareness of both the world’s cruelty and its beauty, he still chooses to be a better person.

My only criticism of Charles in the first film is his failure to encourage Raven to accept herself as she is. However, I can somewhat understand his perspective—he is fully aware of human nature and how difficult it is for people to accept what is different. It is not easy to force yourself into a world that fears you when you have the option to blend in instead.

Beyond that, his struggles, strengths, and vulnerabilities make him a truly remarkable character—one we can learn so much from. He sees goodness even in the darkest of minds, such as Erik’s. However, Erik’s past does not justify his present actions in any way. Anyone who believes otherwise, I would argue, has a flawed perception of morality.

Take, for instance, the scene where Shaw attacks the CIA facility. In the past, I saw it as just another moment in the film. But this time, I couldn’t help but feel for the soldiers who lost their lives protecting those children. In the end, the mutants only listened to the one who betrayed them—which, to some extent, is understandable. Mutants may possess great power, but those soldiers sacrificed everything to ensure the children’s safety.

This is why I understand Charles. I see his perspective—it reflects reality.

Humans harm one another, and it is not merely a conflict between humans and mutants. Mutants, too, inflict harm upon each other and are often responsible for their own suffering, regardless of the reasons. The real issue lies within an individual’s essence, not their nature, identity, or background. Charles understands this. A person is defined by their choices. And because he recognizes the potential for goodness even in the worst individuals, taking the path of violence is not an option he can easily embrace.

In Days of Future Past, Charles is broken. And rightfully so—after enduring such immense loss, he has every reason to struggle emotionally. He experiences deep depression, yet for some reason, his role as a teacher and protector is seen as an obligation rather than a virtue.

He, too, has his own battles to fight.

But in his darkest moments, he truly believed he could never return to the man he once was—because no one understood him or supported him in the same way he supported others.

And so, in the end, the only one who could guide him back was himself—his future self—through words that were both profound and deeply moving.

That, in essence, is what I wanted to express about Charles.

وهذه طبيعة الانسان ما دام يعود لربه تائباً من قلب صادق والافضل ألا يجاهر وباب التوبة مفتوح وربنا رحيم غفور تواب. .

This anime makes me feel so nostalgic. Watching it with a feeling of lump in my throat, chest tightness, nostalgia too

Even though I am someone who does not cry easily over anime, this anime makes me feel longing as well

Every time Frieren finds a trace of Himmel and a memory of Heiter, it makes me cry easily.

اعتقد ان الحياه صراع يومي، بين ان يغلبك الشيطان او تغلبه بينما ان يغلبك هواك او ان تغلبه . 

صراع معك ومع الشيطان ومع اتابعه من الانس ، ان تخرج بإقل الذنوب ان استطعت

 ، لان لا مفر من ان تذنب ان تجمع لك الحسناتتتطاير ان تذكر الله رغم انها مسأله سهله لا تفعل فيها الا استحضار قلبك ولسانك فتنسى . 

اكتسبت عقلية جديدة، عقليتي تخبرني ان ليس هناك ما يقال له بداية السنة ونهايتها واخر الاسبوع واوله الامر هو " ما تفعله الان " ماتفعله اليوم ليس بيدك مقادير الامور 

محاولة عدم الانجراف في الدقائق ، عدم الانجراف في الدنيا عدم الغرق في تتابعها الغريب وروتينها 

ان تعيش لاجل الله ثم الله  ان تحاول ان تثبت 

الامر صراع يومي بين اليمين والشمال 

اعني يا ربي على الانتصار على نفسي وشياطيني من الجن والانس كن لي جاراً  اللهم عليك توكلت وبك استعنت لا إله الا انت

اتوق الى من يصحبني في رحلتي ، كثرت اعداد الاصدقاء وقلت مسافات الارواح لم اعد اشعر الا بالوحدة مع البعض منهم ، كانوا عالمي يوماً لكنني كبرت وفهمت معنى ان تكون بالغاً ومعنى ان يختفي بريق الاصحاب ومعنى ان تختلف العقليات والاهتمامات
