I used to be so smart. I was so clever and I was so capable of engaging in discussions and spinning ideas out with people and considering concepts and comprehending hypotheticals I was so SMART I was so GOOD AT WORDS I could put words together for hours and I didn't run out of them. I didn't know more things but I could think... I could think. I had space inside for so many thoughts and concepts. I was so clever

people on this hellsite will talk about trans men and OUR experiences, but then tell us to shut up when we correct them. they want to talk about us but never want to actually listen to us.
"support trans people!" until a trans man says you're spreading harmful rhetoric and stereotypes about us, then we're over sensitive, whiny, and hysteric. i wonder where we've heard that one before?

Just. The hundreds of tiny quirks Bruce picked up from training with the League of Assassins. Moving soundlessly, controlling his body down to the millimeter. Perfect calm in the middle of a firefight.
Jason has those same quirks. Damian has some but not all. All three of them share such a unique common experience and yet we rarely see them mention it.

can you imagine being thirteen and having the world at your fingertips. everyone loves you - why shouldn’t they? you’re the epitome of a good girl, the ideal, the popular cheerleader type who gets The Guy. you giggle and you flirt with the football players and you have sleepovers with your friends (who don’t really feel like your friends but you’re all popular so you have to like each other, right?). you do your makeup and you bat your eyelashes and everything is perfect.
and then you start growing horns. you start looking like the devil - and you might as well be, the way everyone turns on you, starts looking at you as if you’re a freak, a monster. and, well, if everyone’s going to treat you as such, you might as well play the part, right?
so you rebel against your parents (if they’re not lying about that, too). you go out and you buy a bass guitar and you pluck at the strings until your fingers bleed. it’s better than listening to the arguments downstairs. you transform into people you’re not to pretend you could really be someone instead of the shell you are now. you flirt with guys twice your age to pretend you still have it in you, even if it feels hollow. you grin and you bear it but it’s hollow, in the end.
if you can’t be perfection anymore, why bother being anything?
(and then you meet the most wonderful people in your life. and they accept you as you are and don’t ask you to change. but you find yourself changing anyway, because they make you feel like you can be something. like maybe it’s worth it again. and you finally get The Girl. and maybe life isn’t perfection anymore, but maybe perfection is overrated, anyway.)

Thinking about boys who get sluttier when they're intoxicated. When you refuse their advances at first they whine "Awww, you're no funnnn 🥺🥺🥺" and spread their legs apart while leaning back on the couch, shifting his hips just enough that it draws attention to the bulge in his pants.

Listen. I hope we get a hug more than a kiss in season 3
Like. I want both don’t get me wrong, but, if I had to choose one I’d pick the hug. Maybe it’s just the ace in me, but there’s something that hits just a little bit about them holding onto each other with all they have. After all that time kept apart there is something about the image of one holding the other so tight like he’s afraid to let go. There’s just. Something that hits more than a kiss about that. I really hope they hug

also. arthur morgan is dog coded because he has known love and has known this love to spread it and to save and to be loyal and helpful and that is what eventually kills him. being a good man. being a good dog. self-sacrificial and guilty because he's bitten and he needs to make up for the blood spilled. his place is to fight against his nature. to be gentler. to learn how to use his teeth a different way than what was destined of him.
john marston is wolfdog coded. a dog in everything but mind. he is not loyal. he is skittish and he runs from authority. he knows to bite the hand that feeds when it deserves it. but he wants to love. he wants to sit by the fireplace and have fingers running through his fur. but he is half wild and half teeth. as is his nature. and he runs. but he comes back. he always comes back. a wolfdog is all teeth and vigor. but he can be soft too. but nature is nature. and he knows how to bite best.
dutch van der linde is a wolf. he cannot fight his nature. and though a part of him longs for it. knows it. what that love might feel like. the contentment. he cannot fight nature. he is all teeth. a product of nature and geared for it. snapping at everything and everyone. a wolf will tear off its leg in a trap if pressed. a wolf knows it cannot love the same way a dog might. it is too rough for that. too violent. cannot and will not be caged. the hand is soft but the hand is foreign and unknown. cannot be trusted. a wild animal will not fight it's nature. it can be taken out of the wild. but the wild cannot be taken out of it.
