“What’cha doing over there?” 

The young boy stares at her for a full minute before returning the binoculars onto his face. “Watching Batman. Do you like Batman too?” 

Marinette follows his sight, where Batman is beating up a group of thugs. “Ehh, he’s okay.” 

“Do you want to be Robin too?” Tim asks with wide eyes. 

She throws her head back and laughs out loud. “Me? A Robin? I’ll pass on that.” 

“But being Robin is cool.” Tim’s voice turns small. “He needs more Robins.” 

“He already had two.” 

Tim hums in contemplation, fishing out his camera and snapping multiple photos. She watches him carefully, marveling at the little innocence and curiosity he had. He doesn’t know he’ll be a corporate executive and vigilante in the future, Marinette muses. 

“You like investigating, huh?” Marinette ruffles his hair. Unlike Dick, Tim doesn’t recoil or react much. 

“Better than being stuck at home.” He pouts. “I can’t believe his identity was so obvious.”

Marinette giggles again. “You and me both.”

As for Damian, Marinette isn’t looking for a heartfelt reunion. No. If I visit a young Dami, he will try to kill me and that’s not really a fun conversation. Instead, she focuses on another goal: getting blackmail material. 

She jumps into the room in the League base, wrinkling her nose and finds a baby Damian sitting inside a crib. She snorts out a laugh, seeing that he already has his trademark grumpy look. With one tap on her flute, she captures image after image. 

“You’re so cute when you were a baby.” She gently reaches down to poke his cheek. “I’m getting these for Alfred ‘cause you don’t have baby photos.” 

Damian gurgles and clutches her finger around a tight fist. 

“Aww,” Marinette whispers. 

“Who’s there?” The door flings open, accompanying the feminine voice yelling in Arabic. Marinette doesn’t have a chance to slip away when she comes face to face with a woman. 

Talia’s expression immediately softens and she switches to English. “You did not tell me you’ll be dropping by.” 

Marinette mentally wipes off her cold sweat. “Sorry, mama.” 

“What are you doing with your brother?” 

The fox-rabbit heroine glides over to Talia to give her a tight hug. “Collecting pictures. Y’know, just to mess with him.” She smiles. “You never took baby pictures.” 

“No, I haven’t,” Talia sighs. “However, I do remember having a portrait of him painted. Do you want to see it?” 

Baby Damian suddenly coos, earning their attention. Talia scoops him up and hands him over to Marinette. Her fingers tremble slightly as she hefts her brother in her arms. Damian doesn’t shy away; he snuggles deep into her embrace. 

“Smile, Dami!” Marinette uses her flute to take a selfie of them both.

It's honestly crazy that discussion around testosterone HRT skews so much towards the beginning stages of it (to the point that you have dozens of guys thinking their transition is "failed" if they don't pass by like a year in lol) and what the initial changes of the first couple of months to years look like, like the classic laundry list of those early basic changes like bottom growth, voice drop, etc, when IMO literally none of that compares remotely to the depth and intensity of the long term total masculinization you start to experience like 3-5+ years in.

every year the time passes and i say "wow i can't handle the passage of time" and the time continues to pass and the cycle repeats

I have a question about this image of Xanathar's Thieves Guild.

Why does he have sexily lounging elf boys?

I ask because I cannot imagine a beholder being attracted to anything other than itself. Does he just understand Sexily Lounging Elf Boys to be a status symbol, and he wants anyone who visits to know he can afford Sexily Lounging Elf Boys?

Maybe I'm the asshole here for assuming. Maybe these boyfriends are master tacticians here to advise Xanathar, they happen to like wearing leather pants and no shirts and I should be less quick to reduce them to sex objects.

I don't care, I love it, this is all I can think of every time I see it:

[perlukafarinn]

seven years later i am still not over the fact that dean killed himself because cas was dead and cas never even found out

and to make it even worse, it happened the same episode cas came back to life. dean killing himself to join cas in death, not knowing that cas is actually alive? literally the plot of romeo and juliet aka the most famous love story of all time. and this was never fucking resolved

truly the show of all time (derogatory)
