Only thing getting me thru work today is thinking abt when I can start playing Arkham Origins on Xmas eve to try to hit Alfred’s “Merry Christmas” at midnight in real-time 🤔

Me n dad were talking abt the Superman trailer, abt how we both like the Lois casting, excitement for Krypto & some of the other heroes, but then when we shifted to supes he was like ‘I loved his look as Superman! He looks really cool! But as Clark… he just looks like a dork-‘

Me: oh like a nerd right? Like someone you would’ve shoved in a locker in the 80s?

Him, laughing: yea exactly

Me: like someone you wouldn’t expect to be Superman :)

Him: …okay you got me there :)

Thinking abt the complications arising from Rose & Cass each being envious of the relationship/perceived relationship they got to experience with the parent that raised them vs the one that later entered their lives. Might do a meta abt it later stay tuned

Ramble ramble ramble ramble ramble ramble under the cut, these are just like, initial thoughts i need outta my head bc i am going Mad™️ once again:

Like, for all intents and purposes, Lili was presented as a good, even great mom. Her death is ultimately (from my memory of reading it in '91 DS, so forgive any inaccuracies, or contradictions if it's retconned ig later down the line, from what i remember n52 fucked things up/iirc erased Lili??? anyways-) framed tragically as a mother's sacrifice & Slade's 'refusal to step up' as growth/understanding of his own grief (as he's failed two sons, how could he possibly hope to do right by this new daughter?)

Which is ultimately walked back ofc, but i'm not quite there yet in my backreading, i've GOTTEN THE IDEA THO ANYWAYS HEAR ME OUT

Meanwhile Cass' father (yes undoubtedly abusive) loved Cass just as much, and just as fiercely, believed in the potential he was drawing out. But ultimately failed to mold her into the Thing that he wanted her to be. And when she seeks out Shiva, at first not knowing of their connection & much later on with the suspicion... Shiva mocks her more often than not but still engages her, meets her where she is each time & provides a challenge to her & her worldview. And seeing that starting to unfold again in Cass' current run is tickling my brain bc-

Rose had a genuinely loving mother, but a father disinterested & later manipulating her for his own ends. Cass' father while loving in his own way, also using her to Prove his own theories, & a mother who's feelings towards cass were & continue to be complex.

The potential envy on Rose's end being in how Cass' parents engaged her on her level for the most part, even as fucked up as it may be. Cass' potential envy for the more clear-cut love that Rose's parents have displayed (& esp if we’re placing things specifically around bg2000, pre-OYL/bg08, bc those things would throw a lot of this out the window I think and well, okay confession now-

At work today a scene started forming in my head, mostly forcing this conversation out into the open & how Seeing Yourself In Another can provide clarify, yes, but sometimes You Don’t Like What You See In That Mirror.

I have this loose idea for this ficlet that I'm gonna try to flesh out as we get closer to/during winter break, not gonna say We're So Back yet, but like... we may be kinda back babes...

Anyways so y’all remember Bad Dad Club, right?

Headcanon that when Cassandra is out and about as Batgirl and she notices someone about to shoplift she swoops in, places a hand on their shoulder to stop them, then quickly slips in past the camera, steals the thingie they were eyeing up and then slips back out and just hands it to them before swinging off.

High school age = approximately 14–18. Bonus question for the tags: if you're not from the US, do you find most high school AUs to be too US-centric to be enjoyable/relatable?

"We need more complex female characters" you guys can't even handle barbara gordon being angry that she was shot

Beware the shadows you cast…you never know what lurks within its depths

Jinny Hex Bc I’ve been thinking about her a lot recently and what a solo comic of hers might entail. It’d be cool if it were like a western horror with magic obvi. Keli would guest star Bc they're besties for life and I personally cannot separate them. When will my cowboy daughter return from the war 😔
