richard siken, you are jeff // stranger things 04x08

What if instead of finishing all my WIPS that I’m hoping to have out by the end of the year I started writing another Drabble about the fallout of a collapsing relationship and infidelity. Hm. What if 🤔 💭 ✍️

clingy

so in wave!verse im assuming (from the vague cass and damian mentions) that everyone gets involved in batfam shenanigans one way or another, but since the age order seems to be intact, what do you imagine dick is up to in this universe? is he living his best circus life? was he unceremoniously blasted to another dimension? does he simply not exist?

Unceremoniously blasted to another dimension....can you imagine. What other dimension would that even be. How mean could you possibly get.

jklsjdf so Cass was always in this verse for me as StephCass endgame, and I came really close to having the epilogue be told from a modern day Duke's POV (2023 We Are Robin reporting for duty o7). I decided on Damian after realizing how incredibly funny it would be. He probably makes a ~2006 debut, and either he ruins Jason's life or Jason ruins his life. Those were all designed individually. I liked the idea of having the story focus around the "Outsider Robins" (Jason, Steph, and Damian), and put the spotlight on the characters who are just a little less palatable. And for the more straight laced characters to have their opportunity to go bugfuck. So a) it would be mean not to fit Dick in, and b) this is an opportunity to go really weird with Dick.

We Are Robin is a comics plotline/event/thing that's really good, it's about Duke leading an army of random teenagers to all take up the mantle of Robin and lead organized action against the forces of evil/grown-ups/gentrification. I think Dick is a natural born leader, is very frustrated from being barred from his superhero dreams (he is nine), and needs to garner as much attention and cause as much trouble as physically possible. One thing leads to another.

So: Dick does exist. I don't think he becomes Robin (he is nine, and by the time he's old enough he's already mobilized an army of Robins and the whole thing seems a little moot). I do think he starts the #WeAreRobin hashtag and increases Gotham teen delinquency/activism rates by 500%. I do think Dick is both an openly Rich Kids of Instagram influencer and a stealth #Robin influencer who organizes masses of delinquent children around Gotham to take up arms and fight for their homeland. He picks up a truly impressive and increasingly improbable graffiti habit, conducts stealth warfare against the ruling class (hypocritically), and annoys the Riddler to death. He is intensely likable and uses this power exclusively for evil. He gets kidnapped a truly impressive number of times and makes everybody regret it. Damian is, somehow, always put in charge of babysitting him. Damian would have assumed that it would be easier to prevent a nine year old from conducting civil disobedience and some light domestic terrorism. He would be wrong. Dick protests that he only held the mayor hostage a little. Bruce is terrified of Dick. Damian wonders why he is the only one who doesn't scare Bruce.

It's all in the hands baby

My lonely, touch starved ass seeing these scenes:

Ep5 Ep6 Ep7 Ep8

thinking about kyuubi!hitoya

It would be so fun to be completely alone at the St. Louis City Museum. That is the most backrooms level place I've ever been to and it's AWESOME.

I looked up on youtube some y3 cutscenes because i couldnt remember if daigo called mine mine-san or just mine and bro. I completely forgot how deep mine's voice actually is. My brain stopped working for a sec

i finished it 😐

what if I said I liked stancy?

Getting 48 kudos on my fic with 400 hits is like. Is my writing that bad? I'm gonna kill myself ‼️🧍🏻‍♂️

My friend invited me out to go with her to a library and I’m not sure what I thought would happen but I spent a shit ton on food she didn’t even wanna share (and told me after the fact) and now shes doing homework in silence next to me

I was taking care of my granny before I left to hang out with this heifer and now she’s not even talking to me

woahwoahwoahwoahWOAH

can we talk about how unfair it is that my actions have consequences and how even MORE unfair it is that i have to deal with them????

feel like i need to do something drastic to make the doctor believe me that i'm not coping
