#she's just not robin's type

[hawkinsincorrect]

Nancy, to Steve: Are you sure Robin's even gay? She barely looked at me.

[steddiealltheway]

Something that is canon in my mind that I forget to tell people:

The reason why Steve can’t get bitches in his Scoops Ahoy era is because there’s a rumor going around that he’s gay (probably because someone caught him hooking up with Eddie)

[gayshitanddadjokes]

Tim Drake: I have three relatives

Steph: ooh this one is gonna be good

Tim, counting on his fingers: Cass

Cass: *smiles*

Tim: Dick

Dick: score

Tim: and my stepmom Dana

Bruce: wait what

[grandwretch]

fully believe that if the party could discord chat, steve and eddie would have really dramatic fights in the group chat about idk steve flirting with jonathan (in the chat. nancy was there. they were joking) or something else stupid and then someone would ping robin and she would be like "they are curled up on the couch together with the straightest faces I've ever seen"

nancy’s type is being into dorks 🥺💖

[naturecalls111]

I think I love Sanji so extra much because he’d acknowledge my ‘girl-ness’ in a way that I feel like has not ever been acknowledged in a way I wanted it to be wails

The chivalry intended not with hopeful reciprocation but with admiration. WAILS.

nancy is so purple to me

Demanding more lisp

posts in which it is imperative that wade be read with a fruity obnoxious little gay lisp:

You know, I think that if you're Alabasta-era Crocodile's basement wife, Robin absolutely knows about you - it's not like he's keeping you secret from her (it's no use, really, she's too smart for her own good, plus it'd be too much work to keep you hidden from Ms. All Sunday and that man wants to relax here and there, alright?). It makes him a little more vulnerable, a bit more liable - but the most fucked up thing about it would be your and Robin's relationship.

You learn about her and immediately fear for your life - he's found someone new to play with and you're going to end up as gator chow, you're sure of it. For a man who likes the finer things in life, little old you has probably lost their appeal - and you know that he isn't the type to simply kick you to the curb. You jump at every little noise and worry yourself to tears until you learn that she's been in on whatever shady business he gets up to for months, that's she's by no means some sort of replacement. It's both relieving and terrifying because it just means that he's so removed from reality that he has no shame in letting other people know about you. That he thinks you'll never get out of this, that he thinks he has so much power that it doesn't matter if she knows about his dirty little secret or not. Even worse is that she just doesn't seem to care. After that initial fear wears off, you might think that she could be at least someone to talk to, someone to fraternize with a little (you're not delusional enough to think that she'd be able to get you of of this, much less that she'd want to) but those blue eyes always remain cold, her smile polite yet empty. You can't ever get close to her, no matter how hard you try - she pities you, a little, and humors you with her presence when it's appropriate but not much more than that. It's no surprise that her mere excistence will make you bitter; because while you're both bound to a terrifying man, she is free to walk the streets if she so wishes. It's like a pedigree housecat envying its free-roaming neighbor, fat and well-cared for, yet never able to taste the freedom the other has.

patrick butcher is bisexual I know this in my bones. it's canon. he just is. I don't make the rules.

[actualnymph]

Robin/Nancy is such a ?? ship like why would Robin date her best friends ex…

[thisbluespirit]

I'm currently watching the 1971 Sense & Sensibility on YT and having issues that only the approx. 2 other Poldark 1975 fans on here will understand.

I knew Robin Ellis was in it (he and Joanna David being the two main reasons I was so keen to see it). I'd just assumed he was Willoughby - it's 1971, the year he played Essex in Elizabeth R and if you want dashing, handsome but definitely trouble in the early 70s he's yr man.

AND THEN HE TURNED UP AS EDWARD FERRARS.

Who, I asked, curious, could be Willoughby, then?

... and then Clive Francis walked in and my brain exploded.

[strangerwheelerthings]

I know Hogwarts Houses are not the thing to do anymore, but I came across someone who called Nancy Wheeler a Slytherin, and my brain wouldn't rest until I figured out what she would actually be.

It's not that Slytherin wouldn't be a logical choice in some ways. Nancy certainly has a strong desire to prove herself and plenty of ambition. However, those things are not what drive her, what motivate her.

Nancy would think that she's a Ravenclaw. She highly values truth and knowledge, but it's a means to an end for her. It's not the end goal itself. Knowledge is important to her because of what it gives her, the power and ability to act, and to make a difference.

She is highly like Hermione in this way, but therein lies my reasoning for ultimately choosing Gryffindor. Nancy, for all her intelligence, can be the most reckless, dunderheaded ball of loyalty and courage in the world. She can be a straight-up battering ram when rules she usually respects get in her way. Her motivation ultimately ends up being centered on justice and protectiveness.

Her ambition comes from a desire to be someone who can make a difference in the world; who can be seen for who she actually is, but also just because she cares. She wants to help people, and she'll use any means she can think of to do so (legal or not, lol)

[wayfinderships]

Every once in a while I think about my old L.upin III s/i and the whole situation they had going on with him and man...

[the-lark-ascending69]

I saw a stedd1e post comparing Robin's little speech to Steve about how she's not thinking about Vickie or about love anymore because they're in the middle of the apocalypse, with Eddie's little speech to Steve about getting Nancy back. It was something along the lines of "stedd13 believing in love at the end of the world" or something like that, and I didn't want to say this in a reblog of that post or something because it's very off-topic and not stedd1e related, but all I could think about was...

It's so on brand for Robin as a lesbian to put aside her feelings for someone as soon as something more urgent comes, while her straight counterparts will continue to eyefuck even if they're in the cusp of death. It's so on brand for us lesbians to make our love less important, less urgente and relevant while our straight friends act like it's the most important thing in the world. Robin minimizes something important for her because there are lives at risk, and this is both a strength and a curse. Her straight friends don't seem able to realize there are more important matters than whether Nancy stays with Jonathan or goes to Steve, and that seems frivolous and stupid given the circumstances, but at the same time, there's an unfairness to it. They get to priorize their love. Robin just wants to survive.
