[syerra-637]

Hi Hello :3

I’m the person who requested the recent Yan Rook fic, I’ll go by Arrow Anon if you’re okay with more requests from me!!

Can I request Yan Octatrio headcanons with an S/O who’s a hermit crab mer? That idea lives around in my head

I hope you’re doing well :3c

Thanks for this request Arrow anon and sorry for the time it took me to respond 😅.I've already planned something for this, but just to be sure, when you said a s/o hermit crab mer, do you mean something like this:

Does Redson in Inverted AU still use fire and magic?

I’m asking since in canon he could teleport with his flames and was able to use some sort of spell to bring everyone to the Celestial Realm.

I just think,,,, it’s cool. It’d be cool too if he could use a little plant magic instead.

(From the Arrow-Anon🏹)

I’d say that Red Son is still capable of using his fire but has kind of suppressed it and tries to compensate with his own self taught plant magic. Like I kind of imagine that on a level, Red Son is kind of afraid of the destruction that his fire can cause, so he uses it as little as possible. I suppose character development for him in this AU would be him accepting his fire and realizing it is his own to control.

Green arrow, getting into a fight with batman because he insulted bruce

“No, I want to hear you say it again,” Ollie said, leaning over the conference table and past Dinah to jab a finger in Batman’s face. “Insult him again, I dare you.”

Batman, for his part, looked entirely unperturbed by Ollie’s chest puffing. “I said, Bruce Wayne isn’t exactly known for being intelligent. That’s common knowledge, Green—”

“Do you know what he’s been through?” Ollie exploded, “Do you know how fucked up his childhood was? It’s a miracle he’s functioning as an adult. I knew him in school — do you know what he was? Sad. And you have the nerve to sit in your stupid little angst suit and lecture me about Bruce Wayne?”

Dinah swallowed, giving up on holding Ollie back. She glanced at Batman out of the corner of her eye, prepared to size up an opponent, but the other man’s posture was still relaxed.

He seemed…taken aback, if such a thing was possible for the Batman.

“I…apologize,” Batman said quietly. “I hadn’t realized the extent of your feelings toward him.”

“Pick on someone your own size next time,” Ollie grumbled, as close to an apology as he would get. “Bruce does so much for Gotham. More than you’ll ever do. So yeah, if he’s a little air-headed sometimes — that’s fine with me.”

With that, Ollie turned on his heel, exiting the conference room with a huff. Batman stared after him for a long moment, steeped in stillness.

“He cares about his friends,” Dinah offered, breaking the awkward silence. Batman gave her an odd look, jaw tensing.

“I know.”

“Now you do,” Dinah said, putting enough emphasis on the first word for him to look up at her, acknowledging the hint. “I’d better go check on him.”

>Ahahaha, no fucking way. Okay, she didn't exactly say that, instead trying to more innocently decline the offer of someone who had almost made her explode previously. Sadly though, she would have to keep reading off the instructions either way. Literally, A3 was listed as "Keep reading this, PM". Lets see, fill giant container of choice with water, and then pour in powder from green lid canisters. A4: No, dumping it in the ocean won't work. The powder would just get diluted and do jack shit.

"Hey, suit yourself." She said, waving a finger out of her sight. Nothing. But when PM looked around for no particular reason, She *did* find a mysteriously normal sized slice of pie. Or maybe she didn't.

"Oh! I have all that stuff." After dubiously doing stuff that may or may not have happened, Roxy got up, and procured just those very items. The fact that it was a watertower was a bit on the nose, but hey, the legs were crimped and she needed a drinking glass at SOME point.

[willthespy]

I feel like Nico would learn to use a bow and arrow to feel closer to Bianca, he knows she’s never coming back but he loves her all the same.

WHY… WHY WOUKD YOU DO THIS!!??!

[r-aindr0p]

the existence of a mini rollo implies that there are mini rooks somewhere in nbc

Oh the horror....

These guys would be jus like bed bugs omg. Hiding in every crack of your room, observing you, waiting to get you the second you turn your back.

You can get rid of fire lotuses. You'll never get rid of the mini Rooks...

[bonsiii-art]

Random question, what are your thoughts on Caramel Arrow Cookie? I personally love my boba queen-

I think she's pretty badass from what I remember, going through the Cacao Kingdom story myself when I still played! And while drawing this, my appreciation for her design grew tenfold! o(*￣︶￣*)o

What do you think of Nightwing/Robins relationship with each of the Titans through the years? Specifically Roy, Donna, and Wally.

With Donna and Wally it’s so fluffy! With Roy however I feel like they are either partners in crime or hitting each other where it hurts

You're so right anon. With Donna and Wally things are pretty much perfect but with Roy, Dick's relationship is back and forth but it's not because they don't like each other. It's because they like each other too much.

Donna

Donna is EVERYTHING to Dick Grayson. She's his sister, best friend, other half. Hardcore ride or die. He literally walked her down the aisle the day of her wedding.

Tales of the Teen Titans Issue #50

She also said she would follow him all the way down to hell and she damn sure means it.

Justice League of America (2006) Issue #50

These two aren't going anywhere but to each other.

Wally

World's Finest: Teen Titans Issue #5

Wally just loves Dick a lot. Like if he could Wally would just live with Dick forever and the two of them would just be happy for that.

You've probably read my other posts about Wally already but I'll collate them here just because it's a long time and it's a nice refresher.

Dick and Wally's friendship post

Dick as Wally's lightning rod post

How Dick and Wally in a relationship would go post

Roy

Like I said. It's not a problem but Roy's relationship with Dick is based on the fact that he loves Dick too much. He thinks Dick is the best thing in the world to ever exist. All the Titans think that but Roy wants to BE Dick. If you look at it, Roy's relationship with Dick is a parallel to Jason's relationship with Dick and Donna, Wally, and Garth's relationship with Dick matches exactly with Tim's relationship with Dick.

Jason thinks the world of Dick Grayson and tried his best to live up to him. He tried to fill in Dick's shoes which is exactly what Roy does.

Teen Titans (1996) Issue #13

He loves Dick to an extreme that he wants to emulate but finds himself struggling because he doesn't believe he achieves that. So, he acts out in order to recieve attention from Dick and Ollie and so on. He gets aggressive with the people he loves because he wants them to look at him. He wants to keep them looking at him. Which is the reason for the back and forth between best friend and angry friend moods he has going on with Dick. It's born out of respect and love and need for acknowledgement from the person who he considers is the greatest to have ever existed.

The reason I bring up Jason and Tim is because it's the clearest way to explain Dick's relationships with the Titans. The Titans and Dick's brothers hold him in the highest esteem - they just react to him differently. Wally,Donna, Garth, and Tim love Dick and think of him as the peak of perfection. So, Wally and Tim especially celebrate it by using him as an inspiration to be greater. In similar ways, Jason and Roy love Dick and think he's the peak of perfection and want to be him. They use him as inspiration but at the same time they feel the need to compete with him to prove their worth. Where Wally and Tim have just accepted that Dick is the best and can't be achieved by anyone, Jason and Roy actually do try to be like him. However you know what they say about Icarus - don't fly too close to the sun. Meaning, don't be too overly ambitious and greedy. I don't think there's anything wrong with what Jason and Roy do but the impact of what they're trying to achieve has negative consequences on their mental health.

They love him, want to be him, but personally feel they're falling short of him which brings in the mood swings. The rest of the Titans and Tim have a fluffier relationship because they don't even bother. They've just accepted that Dick is the best and go about on their day. So in summary, Roy's relationship with Dick is fraught with tension because of insecurities as a result of hero-worship. But truth be told, Roy loves Dick just as equally as Wally, Donna, and Garth. He simply shows his love a different way to him than they do because they're all their own individual people.

In terms of Dick viewing Roy, Dick is Roy's hardcore friend. He's a real one. When Roy was struggling with drugs, Dick single handedly dragged him into Rehab because he was there for him. Because for Dick, it makes him happy seeing Roy happy and successful.

The New Titans (1988) Issue #101

Titans (2008) Issue #23

And Roy literally holds down Dick when he freaks out and chases after Kori after she gets possessed at their wedding. The friendship they have is not the smoothest friendship but it's a real one. They need each other because when they're each at their worst the other other one comes in slaps the other around, gives a twisted love confession in the form of threats, and then they get better.

New Titans (1988) Issue #101

Dick is stubborn as hell but Roy is willing to put in the dirty work to pull him out. Same goes for Dick with Roy.

Outsiders is probably the best explanation of their dynamic. Roy put together the Outsiders because he didn't want Dick constantly depressed WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT WALLY DID WHEN HE PUT TOGETHER THE TITANS IN TITANS (1999). But it comes off differently because Roy is more aggressive in the way he shows love. If Roy needs anything, Dick's there for him immediately.

Action Comics (1938) Issue #631

THIS. This scene is them.

They're a flipping hot mess that love each other. In other words, Roy and Dick's friendship is what you get when you put two egoists in a room together and tell them that they're going to die only for them to start beating each other up because they're each screaming that they love the other more and neither refuses to let the other one go first. Kinda like the song Style. They fall apart and then they fall back together for an eternity.

Would you ever consider drawing some Arrows? I'd love to see Connor Hawke in your style

I don't tend to draw the Arrows alot bc I really struggle to draw them I don't know what it is about them specially but I never quiet like how they turn out

[necrotic-nephilim]

you mentioned the arrows stealing tim from the bats and i just had the hilarious idea of that + jaytim

poor oliver would lose his mind bc he goes and saves tim from the bats and then tim brings one of them home

put it back tim you don't know where that's been

i'm CRYING this is so funny. it's even funnier given what Jason did to Mia. like of all the morally questionable mob bosses Tim could've dragged home, he had to pick *that one*? Oliver is trying to be supportive of Tim and give Tim more agency than Bruce gave him, bc Oliver worked *hard* to steal this one and he's not going to lose all of the progress he made. and it does seem like Tim's doing *somewhat* of a decent job of making Jason less murdery. and Jason agrees to the rule he'll keep out of the Star City scene, but Gotham's still his fair game. and honestly, that makes Oliver like him just a *little bit* because if he's going to make Bruce's life more difficult, maybe Jason is alright.

it also does *not* help that when Oliver goes to Roy for support bc Roy agrees that Jason is untrustworthy as hell. but Roy is *also* the guy who had a daughter with Chesire, so the best he can do is give Oliver a shrug.

also think it's fun if Tim is sort of tense, expecting Oliver to put his foot down and tell Tim no. like he's not used to a vigilante parental figure who's actually good at the parent part, so it's weird having this level of freedom, esp when he knows Oliver does disapprove. but Oliver lets Tim figure out hs own love life and make his own mistakes, even if he's ranting to Dinah about Jason until two in the morning. it doesn't help that Jason makes no move to try to get along with Oliver. he's just a shit to be a shit. at this point Tim is pretty sure Jason enjoys driving Oliver up a wall more than he enjoys dating Tim. who's to say if it's true.

it’s the annoying underwear anon again. the other thing that had me biting my pillow about this exact fic is the fact that he slid the underwear down reader’s legs himself ???? he didn’t say “hey, give me your underwear” no, he literally said fuck that, i’ll do it myself. i don’t think you understand what this is doing to me.

he's a man who knows what he wants and he's gonna get it!! oh, the softdom!spencer of it all. he will do it himself.

"annoying underwear anon" has me cackling btw. (you could never annoy me)

[strange-lace]

Do think there’s a timeline out there where Sun Wukong and Mayor could’ve been a couple in the (somewhat) canonverse?

(From the Arrow-Anon🏹)

(P.S., I’m asking because your Inverted AU made me ship this crackship/rarepair.)

It would still kind of be AU territory but honestly, you got me thinking about this! Also WELCOME TO CRACKSHIP HELL ARROW ANON, I AM YOUR CAPTAIN AND THERE’S NO LEAVING

My first immediate thought was like a canon divergence where Mayor just kind of goes off the deep end post the s3 special and tries to take revenge by directly attacking SWK in his home. But considering he doesn’t have much of his powers again, it goes horribly, but it’s so pathetic that SWK decides to keep him under house arrest of sorts. Mayor just goes through a domestication arc because he slowly develops a sense of self outside of LBD and eventually, feelings develop but it would be a slow burn, which I don’t have the patience to write tbh

[frownyalfred]

I need a comprehensive list of who in the JL fucked Batman. And! Who fucked Bruce Wayne.

Because the idea of, for example, Ollie realizing that he and Dinah had a threesome with Batman has infinite comedy potential.

Oliver: Bruce Wayne, threesome with Dinah and on his own a few times

Dinah: also Bruce Wayne, Batman one time on the Watchtower

Hal: Batman (very tense rare fwb situation)

John Constantine: both, more times than Bruce wants to ever admit

Zatanna: also both (good friends as both)

Clark: wants to make a move on both; too embarrassed to make a move on either

Diana: Batman, post-mission bonding 😏

Arthur: Batman, one time, they don’t talk about it. always felt weirdly attracted to Bruce Wayne for some reason

>Oh good, Roxy chose same day shipping basically. It'd be a few hours before she'd get here, only being delayed by the notification of just who she was delivering this stuff to. Still, Roxy would receive a notification that her package had arrived. The Plump Mailwoman (clad in her official uniform this time around) looking rather uneased infront of the giantess's home.

Roxy's home was more of a bunker, a massive metal sheet blocking a stairway to what would look like a sprawling underground city to a person small as the Packed Mistress. Yet as it was lifted out of the way, Roxy walked up as far as needed to see her, now standing at a roughly face level with the mailwoman.

"Hey~. You got my stuff?"

Do you have any recommendations for movies about theatre/working in theatre?

as a rule most films about theatre suck; i think this happens for a variety of reasons but the main ones for me are as follows:

capturing the ephemerality and nuance of an art form that is live and unedited in a medium that generally speaking does not recreate the closeness and specific energy of theatrical performance is really really difficult

so many films about theatre turn into bad parodies of stereotypes of what it's like to work in theatre and/or just get shit so terribly wrong about what the process is actually like that it turns me off

however! there are a few really incredible films about theatre and those whom we might call theatre people that i think capture both the triumphs and difficulties of theatre as an art form and/or career path in a way that is cinematically and dramatically interesting and engaging:

opening night (john cassavetes, 1977)

all that jazz (bob fosse, 1979)

the producers (both the mel brooks OG from 1968 and the 2005 adaptation of the musical directed by susan stroman)

to be or not to be (ernst lubitsch, 1942)

high school musical (kenny ortega, 2006)

waiting for guffman (christopher guest, 1996)

marat/sade (peter brook, 1967)

asteroid city (wes anderson, 2023)

floating weeds (yasujirō ozu, 1959)

the dresser (peter yates, 1983)
