Yeah, people like to think that (adult) Jason’s snarky, cutting, and unapologetic post crisis characterization and the (mostly) “watered down”, docile personality he’s had from N52/rebirth onwards are irreconcilable, and that the shift was just an editorial decision with the intent of marketing him as a “likeable” hero.
While that last part might be true, have they considered that textually it makes perfect sense that being consistently in contact with an abuser just does that to a person. Wears them down until they feel like nothing but a husk, without any discernible direction or opinions of their own. If it isn’t completely burnt out yet, they (consciously or unconsciously) suppress that part of themselves that thinks independently either for self-preservation or to keep the peace. Considering anyone, even “mentally strong” people could fall victim to mental abuse, it’s actually pretty realistic imo.

The key five are incredibly misunderstood by D&D, so very misunderstood. Think about it.
They turned:
- Bran into some weird mindless, one-note zombie,
- Tyrion became witless and made foolish choices that he never would have,
- Daenerys somehow became mad (even though her whole thing is *not* ending up like her father), in which she killed thousands of innocents for no fucking reason (even though she's all about PROTECTING THE INNOCENT, so, uh ????????)
- Jon went all I dUn wAn iT (even though his book version is incredibly ambitious to the point where he *dreamt of being a conqueror like his hero, The Young Dragon*) but the most understood seems to be Arya.
They had no fucking idea of what to do with her, and it showed. It showed so fucking much.

Hawks: Damn, the power went out.
Twice: Don’t worry, I got this.
Twice: [shakes rapidly and starts to light up]
Hawks: What-
Twice: I swallowed a glow stick!
Hawks, on the verge of tears: WHY WOULD YOU-

"You know there's a special kind of pain that comes in having the people who choose to love as their kin turn around and start trying to kill you. Even though they know you are more powerful, even though they know that you cannot be killed, even though they know you could kill them too easily ... it's weird having the people you love decide to risk their lives just to end yours it's scary... even knowing that no one is in real danger seeing the shakey determination in their eyes- well I know they certainly think they are."

Okay okay so. Thinking.
I've mapped out how I want to pay off my credit cards, which means I'll only be getting new stuff pretty sporadically, which means I need to appreciate the zero cost things in my life, like:
- the 2.5 foot tall stack of unread books I have
- the violin I might finally actually pick up again
- the 500+ drawing prompts I've been hoarding
- the list of anime I still need to watch
- the 3000+ songs in my watch later playlist
- the stickers I've been neglecting to cut
- yarn??? I have a lot of yarn
- all the pink fabric leftover from moth cosplay
- the candles and incense I also already have
In short, time to actually use the stuff that I have 😭

taking meetings with the wizard cloak on not for vibes of a wizardly and fickle nature but just because it is cold at my desk. i also have a candelabra lit by my side but once again nothing untoward it is simply to provide warmth in the cruel winter chill
