"Hey, Bruce - I don't really know how to say any of this, but it kinda seemed important to at least check in about those files. I guess I feel like it's mostly not my bussiness, but on the other hand, you have so much information about everything-- about us, about me, and I don't always know from day to day (night to night) what it is I'm doing here, let alone whether I'm meeting your expectations. I remember telling Dick that Batman needed a Robin, and I still think that's true. Not because you can't handle 99% of what we do alone, but because the mission is so dark, and it would be so easy to give up, to lose heart. And guess when I was talking to Dick that first time I thought it was obvious Batman doesn't need Robin to get things done, he needs Robin to make sure he gets them done the right way. But there's Robin and then there's Tim Drake. I'm kinda more like Dick in that I try to separate the two in my head too much... But the point is no matter what I'm wearing, I'm not like you, not even like Dick or Barbara or Batgirl or Jean Paul. I don't think I want to do this forever, I'm not always sure it's good for me. And if you're looking at us now as individuals, then you know that. I mean, here I am with a new mom, and closer to my dad than I've been in a long time. I'm just worried that I'm becoming less like you by the minute. And I don't see how that --how I-- could possibly do you any good."

Please if I can have a moment of your time,

I've been hearing talk of people binding fics into books for profit, I will make this clear Fandom is supposed to be fun. Its something people do for free. We do it to spread joy. If you print out fics for your PERSONAL enjoyment or make them into books for a PERSONAL collection (a friends or families personal collection as a gift) thats kosher in my head.

If you wanna steal people's work to make money, you're gonna discover real quick that A) fanfiction writers don't own the material and you're gonna get sued REAL quick, and B) people are not gonna share their stuff and there will be nothing for us to enjoy and for you to disrespect.

We as writers KNOW consequences can happen even if you don't intend to, it's why we saw the wave of I DO NOT OWN THE SOURCE MATERIAL OR CHARACTERS IM JUST PUTTING THEM INTO SITUATIONS THANKS because creators were worried these big companies would take them for everything they had for a silly little story that they never claimed to own. All it took was one person to get slammed. We Do Not Claim we just play. Thanks.

I don't think it's hit this fandom yet because it's not as popular as some of the others and because in my experience the DC x DP fandom is pretty chill, supportive and we love to encourage each other to create- no nastiness or pushiness that i've seen BUT

I do not condone that type of behavior and I will be keeping an eye on the situation, I would hate to have to take my stuff down so soon after finally getting the guts to post them for all of you to see and enjoy too so lets all continue to be good sports okay?

Tell your friends, spread the word in your circles, we stand together and united against monetizing the stuff we do for pleasure.

Hm, it’s almost like blaming drag queens, trans people, Lgbt people, BLM, Antifa and everything else is just a major distraction from white supremacy

Still desperately clawing my way out of an extreme bout of writer’s block, but wanted to pop in and drop a WIP Wednesday featuring the next chapter of Transference:

“No, the issue is that it would protect you!” Dooku hissed back. “And your hero complex prevents you from ever accepting assistance!”

Allowing a swell of righteous indignation to overtake the simmering satisfaction of knowing just how much his Grandmaster cared for him, Obi-Wan delivered his decisive blow. “On the contrary, you need to protect yourself first! You are the leader of this planet — of your people who depend on you — and that position carries with it the burden of command! You represent more than just one individual now, so act accordingly!

And a little more:

It should have felt foreign and strange — and it was most certainly awkward while his old friend took his sweet time figuring out what was happening — but once Dooku’s arms came up to embrace him back, nearly crushing Sifo-Dyas against the other man’s solid chest, everything tilted back to its proper axis.

😊 I just love putting Grandpa Dooku in uncomfy positions hehe (any tips to conquer the dastardly writers block are much appreciated)

"Dear Batman... Okay, I admit that always looked WEIRD on the Christmas card... but I have to tell you, sometimes it felt even WEIRDER to write "Dear Bruce"... Sometimes, I wonder what you call me in your head. When you think about me, I mean. If you think about me. Reading those FILES of yours... I guess it was the first time I was ever sure that you sometimes wonderer the same kind of THINGS. And I don't want you to WONDER about me. I want you to be SURE. Thing is I don't know how to reassure you in WORDS. I mean, there ARE no words. What AM I, Bruce? Your son? Your trainee? Your soldier? Your "sidekick"? Your ward? "Ward." I HATE that word. It stopped having any MEANING the minute I turned EIGHTEEN, and I was afraid I would, too. Stop having MEANING, I mean for YOU. So, in the absence of binding WORDS, I try to show you who I am in ACTION. And I find I can't stop MOVING. Sometimes it's because I feel like I have to keep UP with you, and sometimes it's because I feel I have to keep AHEAD of the others. You don't know what it's about EITHER, do you? All the PEOPLE around you?.. Sometimes I think they just GATHER of their own ACCORD... pulled by the same MAGNETISM and MISSION that keeps me in ORBIT, and I'm so grateful for them... so glad not to be ALONE out here... that I don't give it a second thought. But other times, Batman... Bruce... no, Batman, I think you deliberately CALLED them to your side... and I can't BELIEVE you'd have the GALL. You eventually HEARD ME OUT on the issue, but I don't think you ever really GOT how much it HURT me when you chose Azrael to stand IN for you instead of ME. The only thing I hate more than WEARING that cape and cowl and imagining a world without you IN it... is watching someone ELSE do it. I know you have your reasons for everything you do, and I know you don't always think... I BELIEVE that, I DO believe that, I'm not ever worried that you haven't thought things THROUGH, I'm sometimes worried that I don't factor into your thinking. Or that if I do, you're worrying that I can't take care of myself. It ocurred to me for the first time today, that maybe it's not about that. You're not an easy man to be close to, Bruce. As much as you may care about any of us, any of THIS, I know you'd trade it all in a heartbeat if you could have your parents back. And I have never really admitted this to anyone, but I don't think I would. Trade, I mean. And I don't think I'm ready to see your face if I TOLD you that. Which is why I'm never gonna send this letter. I miss my parents with my whole heart, Batman, I do. But I wouldn't trade this for the world. Love, Dick."

{Let’s Talk About Transference…!!}

Hi Doll!! It’s so good to hear from you again! I hope you are doing well. Thank you for sharing and being vulnerable. I really appreciate it. You are very brave, darling…♥️

Hey, it’s okay and completely valid to be attracted to your therapist. This is actually a very common phenomena. It’s called transference. Transference is the phenomena where the patient develops/transfers their feelings to/for their therapist.

Here’s an article on transference if you want some more information— What Is Transference?.

My advice on the matter?

Be honest with yourself. Feel, recognize, and process all of your feelings related to the matter. Don’t stuff it down. If you ignore it, then it will only come back to haunt you tenfold. If you feel safe enough and if you think it will help, tell the therapist in question and ask for their advice. But doing that depends on the scenario…

Thank you again for sharing, sweet anon! I appreciate it truly. I hope you get to a place of resolution on this matter soon. Don’t hesitate to reach out! Hope you have a lovely day/night!! 💞💞💞

Having some mildly incoherent thoughts about War Room 2 and the Gally trio this morning. May or may not make sense, spoilers below the cut:

When was the last time we saw Narvin “thinking with his hearts” instead of his head like he does in WR 2?

When he tried to wipe the Daleks from existence to save Romana.

Romana wasn’t there, just like she isn’t here now as Narvin is falling apart.

Narvin and Leela have managed without Romana before, but never for this long, and never like this. When things get bad, really bad, all Leela can do is stubbornly tell Narvin that there is hope, there is a reason to keep going, but she can’t explain why because she doesn’t know herself. She just knows there is hope. There has to be.

But that doesn’t work with Narvin’s analytical, rational mind. Normally, this is where Romana would step in and placate him with facts, numbers, figures. It’s what he understands. But Romana isn’t here. Leela can’t give him the facts he needs to believe in a better future. 

Romana, Leela, and Narvin can no longer function without each other. As the gap where Romana should be widens, everything is tipping out of balance. Leela, Leela is becoming the rational one, the one who must serve the system she hates and play by the rules that go against her deepest values.

Meanwhile, Narvin, Narvin’s rationality is dissolving as he loses his grip on everything and everyone he loves. (Besides, if he doesn’t have anyone to love, who is he? The guy we all hated way back in S1. And he physically can’t become him again. So what does he become if he loses everything?)
