I don’t think Jason has ever hated Tim

I recently revived my Jason Todd hyperfixation from its torpor and realized I had… Means and Ways of reading as many comics as I want for free, so I made the transition from Fanon Only to having read Lost Days, Under the Red Hood, Teen Titans #29 (where Jason fights and beats the tar out of Tim), Hush, Red Hood and the Outlaws (the majority of both runs), Red Robin: The Grail, Batman and Robin: Streets Run Red, Green Arrow #70 - #73 (where Jason kidnaps Mia), Battle for the Cowl, and a smattering of other bits and bobs, all within the last month.

I have come to the conclusion that the idea that Jason hated Tim before slowly learning to be okay with him is completely backwards.

Jason starts respecting Tim as a fellow combatant after basically their first meeting, and was sympathizing with him even before. Fandom talks a lot about how Jason repeatedly tried to kill Tim, but I think there’s a good argument to be made that actually Jason has never tried to kill Tim, and there’s a better argument that Jason has never tried to hurt Tim out of a dislike for him.

Tim is the one who feels viciously betrayed by Jason, hates his guts, and depending on if you blend in the New 52 either learns to begrudgingly like him or just stays hatin.

Obviously I need some proof here, since this goes completely against the grain of every relationship interpretation I’ve ever seen for them, so approximately seven miles of character analysis under the cut lmao

Thankie for staying with me this year. Here's to another year.

@langwrites I doodled Kei!! I hope you don’t mind!

[writer-and-artist27]

You’re two days early as of this reblog (9/22/24), but I’m still grateful nonetheless. 💚 Thank you, Lang. It’s good to see an Eevee, more so one I wanna hug. I love it. 💚🌸

[image description: a digital drawing of the Pokemon Eevee in a doglike "play bow" position. The text box above it reads, "Happy birthday to you! EEVEE would like to play!" end dscription.]

Happy birthday, @writer-and-artist27! Managed it a bit later than I thought I would, but I hope you like it!

Just some doodles of my favorite ninja

@cyb-by-lang

[treavellergirl]

1. Always post the rules. 2. Answer the questions given by the person who tagged you. 3. Write 11 questions on your own. 4. Tag 11 people.

Right, here we go, I got tagged by @tsume-yuki .

The Questions:

1. All time favourite song?

Oh that question is going to be the Death of me. I switch every single day, though I have songs that I can listen to over and over again, for a short period of time, and then I switch again. So no true all time favorite song I´m afraid. The list would include way to many to even try to type them all.

2. Biggest difference in your personality from ten years ago and how you are right now?

Oh hahaha, I type and send what I like now a lot more then I ever did then, I can assure you of that. I am also more in tune with a lot of things I straight up does not like, and can therefore avoid it - though I was a lot more rose tinted view 10 years ago, and that trust and optimism is both a relief and a sadness to have lost it. More World weary, and less trusting, essentially. Though it is weighted up in knowing more about myself instead.

3. What was your favourite toy growing up?

I always insited on 3 different types of rabbits to be with me at all times when travelling somewhere when I was small, that AND my personal pillow. Because that was my ultimate Comfort thing when going away to other places, because they were mine, and no one else could claim them from me.

4. What would you want your last meal ever to be?

..... A huge buffé with food from all over the World, so if it is the last meal, then it might as well be the food that kills me ^^.

5. What’s your favourite ice cream flavor?

Strawberry, though I am really fond of a flavor I don´t think is made anymore that was Mocha flavor, and it was the best I´ve ever had, and then it disappeared, so now it is Strawberry, though I tend to pick vanilla when buying - because it goes with everything, and when it comes to Strawberry I want as much strawberries in it as possible, which it often isn´t much of in it.

6. Cutest nickname you’ve ever been called?

Chikadee, no question about it. Because it honestly sound so cute, and bubbly and full of energy, “you can do it!” that it brightens the day everytime it comes up.

7. If you could pick a new first name, what would it be?

I honestly have no idea in terms of actual names though I would prefer something that means something. Whether it is something that has a personal deep meaning, or something that is a code of life, inspiration - something to uphold, well it would depend on how it fits.

8. Do you sleep with your sheets tucked in or out?

I am lucky if my nose sticks out at night so I can breath, I tuck myself in as much as possible. That and the fact that I hate when it is cold makes for a very miserable winter, because if I am cold I can not sleep at all. So to sleep I need to have a pair of socks on, and usually I just say that I hibernate at Winter, because you can almost never see me then unless neccesary. Drag me out of bed, quite literally sometimes, though I´ve become so much better at being like a normal human being at Winter during these last few years.

9. What personal trait has gotten you in the most trouble?

Just one? Oh. That one is hard. Hm, if by meaning of trouble, you mean fights or similar things the closest thing would be that I tend to bottle up my anger until it explodes, and the triggers was not always the same, so I never really knew what would finally cause the outbreak.

It does not help that when it finally ocurr, it got messy really fast.

Like “I have to get out of here or I will do something regrettable” while fuming like a tea kettle boiling over, with steam coming out of the ears kind of thing - and the ugly crying, the stamping of the feet in pure FRUSTRATION because HOW are you suppose to convey what piss you off so much when it HURTS so much, the throat pretty much clogged with anger, hurt, fury, dissapointment, all the whistles. And all the while trying to talk/scream over someone else to get your point across - I hate confrontations because of this shit.

Why must I rip my heart out to get the point across that some thing just plain is not acceptable and it hurts damn it?? 

< - - - - - That was my turbulent relationship for a number of years with one of my siblings. Joy. (Until we both lived in separate parts of the country, with our own spaces, and that it took that much to make us both settle and be okay with being around each other for more then 5 min at a time? I hated it.

Think of two territorial beings that has to coexist in a much to small space, where you walk around on tip-toes just to go for the throat when a line was crossed. Bam. A huge screaming fight. With stamping of feets and slammed doors.

At least we never really got to the point of physical fights. We so did not need to add that. Though our relationship is pretty much ok now, after so long of begrudgingly accepting that compromises is a way of life.

And just the fact that we´ve lived on our own at out own places, really made a huge difference. We are very much big on “mine, my things, my pets, my space, keep out unless invited” so you might imagine how that went when we had to share a room for most of our childhood, and then came the puberty and the hormones and own spaces, and what do we do with all this space? and whoa. What a mess. Though we are fine now ^^.

10. If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would it be and why?

Would it sound terribly weird if I wanted to dive into other peoples mindscapes and see how they build their stories and worldbuildings and throw ideas back and forth and just watch it snowball from there? Because that was the first thing that came to mind. So real places apparently takes second place in this ^^.

Think the mindreaders of the Naruto series, where they see things inside other peoples minds and can walk around and interact with it, with a sprinkle of Legilimency, though it would show itself in a different way. Like “you are in a room and have a screen that allows you to choose what to show (in a life like manner, like you were there” kind of different. Everything from ideas to thoughts, and build up from it.

So it would not affect the persons in a negitive way, but more like “hey I have this wacky idea, what do you think of this?” and throw out so many different things that it could make anyone dizzy. 

11. What’s the story behind your username? 

- Oh finally, a question that is easy to answer ^^.

A long time ago, when I was around 10-11, or even 12 years old, I had a free sample of a game called Traveller. (If my memory is correct, it could be wrong on the name of the game itself though) And that name really made me sit up and take notice, because here was a game that was EXACTLY what is sounded like, which struck a cord with me, because it essentially urged you to EXPLORE and TRAVEL and it was everything I wanted to do around then.

It did not matter if I travelled to a real place or an imaginary one, because the freedom of just up and leave everything behind at that point in my life? It was higly desirable.

And when it comes to travels, oh boy, I still hate packing for that. I am so bad at it, that there is no words for it, though it has seen some improvement by sheer trial and error through the years.

After the whole finding that game, testing it and later discarding it, AFTER I finally made my own username with inspiration from it, of course, I later down the line found my then ultimate treasure hoard of astrology books and just up and dived into them (and the fact that I still mix things up in that area is another matter entirely). Those huge thick books which I admantadly HAD to have with me practically everytime I was going away, which meant an entire bag full of books, every single time I was going to travel away. The packing was not fun, I can tell you that. I earned the nickname “the bag Lady” from my mother from this habit that continued for several years.

So long story short, the username comes from the inspiration of a game called Traveller, and to date it is the only game I truly remember from that period of time.

(... And I am unable to type short answers that does not spin off into their own universe too. Not exactly news, though it was some time ago that I had so much of it all at once staring right back at me like this ^^.)

So the new 11 Questions :

1. What would your ideal day be like?

2. You have to choose an animal for a pet, which one would you choose and why?

3. You have 5 min to think of which World you would choose to be inserted into, SI style, and say why you choose that particular World. Twist : You can choose where you end up, but you would have to stick around the first person that find you, for a year, after being found by the aforementioned person.

4. If you could choose one ability from any and all manga/anime, what would be your choice?

5. You have to select a theme Music for yourself, what would be your choice? (It could be a song, a specific genre and/or specific singer - or why not pick and choose from it all and make it truly personal? So a song, with a different singer and in another genre style which the song is performed).

6. Out of all protagonist just floating around in the manga/anime worlds, which one would you choose if you had to have one of them for a family in this World?

7. You have to pick a new profession, effective immediatly. What is your choice?

8. You loose one of your senses. Which one would it be?

9. You are offered a free move to another country, all expenses paid for. Where would you end up and why?

10. For a new Project, which one would you like to collaborate with? It could be about anything that falls into your interests.

11. Which language would you choose to learn if you had to learn a new one and the reason why?

In what chapter does Kei reveal to Minato she is a reincarnate? I keep trying to think out how Minato would react to this information for my own SI fic, and my silly brain keeps going

“Just use Kei’s I-am-Reincarnate as a baseboard, Langwrites writing is good enough to be a canon-compliant wiki for characterization reference material”.

(It really, really, really is that good, seriously.)

Kei confesses to Minato (and Kakashi) in chapter 96. They are, even through the remainder of the story as written, the only two characters besides Isobu who are read in on the situation. Further elaboration happens around chapter 101-102.

Glad you've enjoyed Kei's adventures!

A friendly dedication to @partialdignity, @lunarimpact, @avicebro, @hanatatami, @crescentialee, @magicallygrimmwiccan, @langwrites, @abalisk, and @windwardstar has to be said here, because after the last week since the previous fanfic update (back on 3/5/25 too, huh) on the story, been through the ringer mentally and physically. They all offered kind encouragement when I originally had none to give to myself. To be completely honest, when still stuck in a dark corner, I'm grateful.

And when struggling in real life with work enemies and my own personal demons, it felt nice to go back to a dream, even in writing.

Tag Game: WIP Wednesday

(I'm doing it on tuesday lol)

Rules:

Post up to five (5) filenames of your WIPs; not titles, file names.

Post a snippet from one of them. Snippet must be words you wrote in the last 7 days.

After you’ve posted, people can send you asks with one of your file names. You must then write 3 sentences in that file. If the filename is one you can't share from (for example, an event or gift fic), write 3 sentences on it anyway, and then 3 more on another to share.

WIP File Names: (I only have four, they're all MDZS)

JGY Mpreg Mabortion Fic: The Real Pro Life Choice

Trans MDZS - A Man in Time You'll Be

Who You Condemn

The Black Parade Oneshot

Snippet:

The first thing Wen Qing does is use the supplies Jin Guangyao brought to help the Wen. She has Wen Ning run some out to the settlement. She sees someone who walks in, unsteady on his feet and hand cradled to his chest. She undoes it, opens up the wound to clean it of infection before redoing it. Using the saline and sutures, antiseptic and antibiotics and bandages that Jin Guangyao brought for himself.

Once he leaves, bottle of pills in his hands, Wen Qing lets out a sigh and saying without turning to Jin Guangyao. “If he lives, you’ve saved at least one of us.” [there something happy there, satisfying. Like the work he’d done in the early months of the sunshot campaign, helping clean up the dead bodies. Like the volunteer work he’d done to pad out his college apps.]

[nyd-needs-cuddles]

Kei as a Lan???

Like, idk I think it’d be cool. In a watching-fire-burn-everything-down kinda cool.

She’d probably break sect rules w/o even knowing because come on, 3000 rules?

She got adopted by LQR after some Wen bastards burned down her village? (Idk I just like her scar okay?)

So... cousins to LWJ and LXC? Triplets?? Holy Trinity of GusuLan???

Messing around w/ talismans to make explosive tags and giving LQR grey hair? Why not.

Uh... when the other sects come, she gets lost (the place is big alright?) and inevitably gets flirted by WWX? and LWJ is low-key seething?? With JC just So Done(tm) of WWX???

Katana instead of the sabers. Or whatever you call the Lans’ swords are. Whooo, flying swords!

Has memories of Gekko Keisuke ‘cause I want me some BAMF!Lan!Kei

Lan Yue? As her name-name? Idk for her courtesy name. Gotta be two-three syllables tho

Can recognize WWX ‘cause sensor-skillz and LWJ’s mannerisms. Also, why the heck is his golden core missing? (Golden core reveal? YunmengJiang sibs angst??)

Probs won’t wear the same clothes as post-timeskip LWJ and LXC. Wears the same as the junior’s (the slitted kimono stuff w/ pants?) but with, idk, more designs? And longer??

Her headband is, uh, with clouds. Like LSZ despite not being a real Lan.

Has a pet turtle who remarkably acts similar to Isobu. Is seen usually on top of her head.

Gets mistaken as a boy, still. (LXC is inwardly cackling whenever this happens, don’t let his smile fool you)

Bad feeling with JGY, like with Teach in Ocean Stars Falling.

Damn, now I rlly wanna write this. Permission to proceed, @cyb-by-lang ?

[writer-and-artist27]

Little late night (10:39 pm) reblog to convince all the folk who followed me one way or another to start reading Lang's work.

Because Lang and her beta Os inspired me to start writing 6 years ago, and I'm glad to know them both as they're still writing now.

So everyone. Go have at it with great writing. :)

After a year, we are back!

(Kakashi is not having a great time.)
