Anyone ever think about how Terry is essentially a failsafe.
He is the worst case scenario. He is the embodiment of the and? At the end of both happy endings and tragedies. He would not exist as Batman if not only Bruce, but the entirety of the batfamily hadn't failed. He would not exist as Batman if Bruce didn't find the last dredge of hope inside him and dragged himself out of the pit he created.
Terry isn't in most universes as Batman because most don't need him. Most have one of the bat kids step up as Batman and the head of the company. He is irrelevant in most. But in at least one, things go wrong, and begins a chain reaction that ends with Terry's father dead on the floor, and a Gotham empty of anyone to turn to, so Terry has to do it his damn self.
While I think Terry does genuinely want to be Batman, I think something else drives his stalwart position. He grew up in a Gotham without heroes, and where the main company decided to suck the city down with it. Everytime anybody ask him to give up the cowl, they are asking for a lot more then just him not wearing the suit. Who else is there? We love Barabara but there must be enough of a conception about her police force that Terry doesn't even considering going to them out of fear of corruption. Who else is there? Nobody. And I don't think he wants to risk that again.
It must be lonely, to be an entire city's last and final chance. To be the universe's attempt at damage control.

wanna bug Toji soooo bad while he’s on the phone. his ass doesn’t have a job so it’s not like he’s discussing important business, but he likes to make it look that way. phone tucked between his shoulder and ear as he uses one hand to rub circles on your exposed thigh, the other flipping through the tv channels. he’s speaking in a low tone, his eyebrows mused together in agitation as he calls the guy on the other line a barrage of insulting names.
and you’re just a simple person—the man looks hot as fuck like that and you just have to bother him. so you do, despite the side eye he gives you when you swing your leg over, foot in the air, right in his face. he swats you away gently before going back to his phone call, bites at your toes when you still try to wiggle them in his face.
"If you think you can lowball me like that, then you're stupider than I thought." Toji grunts to the other man on the phone, distracted once more. a little peeved that his attention isn't on you much anymore, you do what any little conniving imp would do.
you sit on his lap. backwards, facing the TV, looking over your shoulder at him with such an evil little grin that it makes his eyes squint to you in warning. but you've never listened much, especially when you know you'll be rewarded so plentifully in the end.
so you rock your hips, just slightly the first few times. your legs sat on either side of him, hands resting in the space between his legs on the bed, leaning your weight back on his hips that you sit against. instantly, you can feel the swell of him beneath his sweats, feel the thickness that you love to fill you up start to twitch when you circle your hips, grinding them oh so slowly against his covered cock.
when you look over your shoulder again, Toji only stares, the slightest lilt of his lip turning up at the corners. he tries to act unbothered, one arm bent back to rest his head against, the other holding the phone to his ear. but you can see through him, and feel just how bothered he really is.
so you up the ante; start to lift and drop your hips slow, slow, slow at first before the pace begins to build. you lean forward on your elbows, pull your underwear up until the curve of your ass is exposed, gasping from the friction, from the feeling of his cock rubbing so sweetly at your slit through the thin cotton.
you look over your shoulder once more, grinning, biting at your lip as you grind against him, close to completion. he can see it all in your eyes.
"Gonna call you back later. Got some important shit to take care of right now." Toji hangs up without preamble, gaze distant as he focuses on the ever growing spot of your arousal that starts to leak onto his own sweats.
but you're a little minx, with the way you scramble from his grasp before he can catch you, laughing when he snags your ankle to drag you back down. he's suddenly kneeling over you, grin sharp and ferocious, the straining of his cock through his sweats hanging so intimidatingly low, that if you lift your hips just a little, his tip would kiss your clit in the sweetest kiss.
"And where do you think you're going, you little brat?" Toji growls, dropping down to nip at the base of your neck, licking over your pulse point.
"Not letting me off the hook that easy, huh?" you tease, hands splayed beside your head in surrender, just wanting a little bit of the chase before the devouring. and by the look in his eyes, you know you'll only be bones by morning.
"Not in a million years." he promises right before the inevitable pounce.

Yo got any of your own bootheng/henghill hcs to share with the class? 👀
WAH- HELLO YES I DO???? WHDBNE
BUT BEFORE ANYTHING
(these headcanons are all purely platonic cause I genuinely prefer to think of them like that ngl :))
N E WAYS BOOTHILL AND DAN HENG HCS:
Yes I know I made a whole art about how boothill carries dh whenever he could but like lemme emphasize that this is only a Boothill Privilege™
Dh showing him something in his book: "so you see bla bla bla-"
Boothill who couldn't be bothered to kneel to Dan Heng's level: *scoops him up*
Dan heng:....
Dan Heng: you know you could hold the book if you want
Boothill: nah
Dan Heng: ...fine
On the other hand Dan Heng would absolutely deck any other person who tries to carry him in anyway shape or form (caelus he is looking at you)
Alright listen Boothill used to be a dad and Dan Heng grew up in the shackling prison with no contact whatsoever so what I am saying is boothill found out Dan Heng likes dad jokes and uses that knowledge WHENEVER
*boothill and Dan Heng investigating something and boothill sees stairs*
Boothill: Ya know.... I never trust stairs....
Dan Heng: ....what?
Boothill: ....cause they're always up to something
Dan Heng:
Dan Heng: *snort*-
It makes boothill always proud whenever he can pull one if these
Boothill actually knows a lot about machines and stuff (cause... Y'know) and sometimes yaps about them to Dan Heng
Dan Heng actually took interest in this sunject and records whatever boothil says if it wasn't already recorded in the data bank
(Dan Heng fell asleep once hile boothill was talking about them but only because he was too sleep deprived and hasn't slept in days and boothill is nice company)
(boothill wasn't mad, in fact he was quite pleased the guy finally slept he looked dead on his feet)
After boothill leaves Dan Heng sometimes even goes to welt to ask him about stuff he doesn't understand concerning machines and welt happily explains them which causes some bonding moments cause found family stuff is my JAM u-u
Boothill knows how to play a lot of instruments (guitar/ harmonica/ ukulele/ etc-) (i don't know most instruments forgive me 😔)
He taught Dan Heng how to play ukulele at some point
Whenever boothill visits he just grabs Dan Heng and leaves and no one is phased at this point
*boothill visiting the express and tb greets him*
Tb: are you gonna stay here for a while?
Boothill: I'd love yo, mate but I gotta get something real quick from the express and then maybe I'll stay for a whole
Boothill: *gets into the parlor car*
Boothill: *gets into the archives and rumages a bit*
Boothill: *gets out of the archives with Dan Heng on his shoulders like a sack of potatoes* Well, I'll be right back!
Tb, hemiko and welt who got used to this: sure!
Pompom, also used to this: BRING HIM BEFORE DINNER!
March, who still DIDN'T get used to this: .....
March doesn't get payed enough for this
Dan Heng actually doesn't KNOW a lot of swear words (he knows the basics lol) so sometimes boothill says a swear that doesn't fit into what Dan heng knows so he goes the data bank to look up for what boothill meant
Hemiko found out about this one day and she gave boothill A Discussion™ about how to not use so much colorful language around the others
Boothill shudders everytime he remembers said Discussion™
Aight I think that's actually all I have for now teehee~

so void and i were talking about essences where the s-tier is a villainous character and of course the conversation turned to dragon hunter, and while talking about his manipulation and how he plays both sides of the conflict in the essence, i found this line:
which is. REALLY fucking interesting. the use of "chimera" in reference to him is such a clever fucking inclusion, given that he has chimerism in canon; i don't even know if it's on purpose or not. dragon hunter i fucking love you

WHAT IF LUKE HAD POKEMON [i also made teams for others like the Professor, Randall, Emmy, etc! I hope i can show those teams eventually lol]
His starter is an oshawott and the first pokemon he encountered and caught is a shiny dreepy but he doesn't know it's a shiny and LITERALLY A PSEUDO LEGENDARY [bc it'd be funny!]
He met and helped a wimpod and it eventually joined the team. It's pokedex entries says it sometimes will pick up coins which i think would be helpful for finding hint coins mdfvkdfmv
both the Professor and Emmy have dog pokemon and Luke wanted to have a dog pokemon too! He eventually meets a growlithe who is the most uncooperative fella for the longest time vdfmkmkl
That's his team so far >:] the other pokemon i may introduce eventually but they are met way later on...like sometime around new world of steam
