Seeing all those posts and fanfics where the batkids, especially Dick, calls Clark "uncle Clark", made me think.

If Dick calls Clark "uncle Clark", he probably started doing it BEFORE he ever referred to Bruce as his father. After all, another uncle doesn't erase any existing one, but accepting Bruce as his father was erasing John Grayson in Dick's mind, for multiple years. It makes sense for Dick's confused feelings about his situation to call Clark "uncle" before calling Bruce "dad".

So, I present you: Bruce being envious of Clark because Dick refers to him with a family's title but Bruce is just "B".

And in the same continuity: Dick being envious of Jason calling Bruce "dad" so easily.

For Dick, it feels as if the word is stuck in his throat. He can say it to joke around with others ("let's steal dad's car" he tells Jason), but to Bruce's face? He's afraid the world would end.

Nico and Percy's dynamic through the series is eternally funny to me, because it's just. like.

Percy's having a constant mental struggle between his fatal flaw of loyalty with a promise he made to Bianca to protect Nico, versus his Big 3 kid desire to maim other Big 3 kids / Poseidon descendant urge to totally maim Nico specifically. He hates Nico so so much. He thinks Nico's annoying and weird at best, and creepy/sketchy when he's older. The only positive thoughts Percy has towards Nico are "He's Bianca's brother and Bianca was my friend and I owe her/He's Hazel's brother and Hazel is my friend and would kill me if I was mean to him," "He's a powerful asset and useful ally (if questionable)," and "He's kinda pathetic and I feel maybe a little bad about it." Percy has multiple occasions throughout the series where he strongly considers - and on one occasionally actually goes through with - throttling Nico.

Meanwhile, Nico is following around Percy like a lost puppy. He explicitly can never bring himself to even dislike anything about Percy no matter how hard he tries. He has a whole bit in BoO where he's mentally going "UGH he's so stupid BUT IT'S ENDEARING HOW DARE HE." He's totally smitten. He's making deals with his dad for Percy. He's making convoluted plans to help Percy stand a chance against Kronos. During the entirety of BoTL it's like he's playing tsundere - "I'm helping NOT PERCY SPECIFICALLY with this quest! Me helping Percy would be SILLY because I DEFINITELY HATE HIM." Then he proceeds to show up to Percy's birthday party to basically ask him on a weird date and spend the entire next book scrambling around trying to help him or protect him or impress him. And Percy could not give less of a shit.

Just. That dynamic is so funny to me. Percy is the founder of the Nico Protection Club in that he's the one they're all protecting Nico from and meanwhile Nico is throwing himself at Percy to the point where the literal god of gay love calls him out on it.

At forty-five years old, there’s one day out of the entire calendar year that Eddie dreads like none other.

It’s not his birthday, surprising as that is, and it’s not tax day either (though only because Steve, the angel that he is, elected to take charge of their insane finances ages ago so Eddie doesn't even think about it).

No, it's parent-teacher conference day at his children's school.

Eddie wants to have a strong word with whoever's idea it was to have every meeting take place in a single day. Maybe that shit works for the freaks with only one kid, but he and Steve have three hellraisers in the elementary school, so for them it usually goes like this:

Kid 1: Please help us figure out why she is inciting riots on the playground

Kid 2: Your child is taking up class time getting into complex moral debates with the teacher’s aid

Kid 3: She's a pleasure to have in class — that being said, does she ever talk?

– all within the span of 45 minutes.

Kind of whiplash-y, in Eddie's opinion.

Steve is totally in his element for that shit though. He’s good at distinguishing between when their kid is the problem (which is……..often) and when it’s a reflection of something bigger, and when that's the case, he gets to tap into the snarky, mean-girl side of him that doesn’t come out all that often anymore..

Steve, to Hazel's teacher: I don’t know what to tell you. Hazel makes all kinds of noise at home. We’ll talk to her, but maybe this also warrants a conversation about what’s going on in the classroom that’s making her feel like she can’t when she’s here.

It's sexy as all hell in Eddie’s opinion, or so he attempts to communicate to his husband the literal second they're out of the school when he tries to shove him bodily into the backseat of their car without extracting his hands from Steve’s back pockets.

Steve, managing to push Eddie off him for half a second: Dude – no fucking chance are we having car sex in the parking lot of our daughters’ elementary school. You’re crazy.

Eddie: *pauses to think about the layout of their town*

Eddie: Bet there’s no one in the lot for the cemetery.

Steve: No.

Steve: We can’t get cursed today. I’ve got shit to do.

Eddie: What about the hiking trails?

Steve:

Steve: Yeah, okay.

Hey, do any of my followers have experience with absconding from their parents' house to a safe place as soon as they're able? Do you have any advice on how to do that? Do you have any advice on what the person they're going to live with should do?

we're all so distracted by the norm-scary parallels we're blinded to the reality that link is the one turning into early-season scary right under our noses

I am really tired of a situation rn.

Trans fem Jaybin asking Bruce if she can visit Willis in prison because she wants to know what he would have named her if she was born a girl and that's how she finds out that Willis was murdered and despite knowing from day one Bruce just... didn't tell her.

my dad bought me a copy of good omens before the tv show came out bc he thinks it's such a phenomenal book and I read it and agreed and then like 1/4 of the way in I (queer teenage girl) asked him (50 year old straight man) "crowley and aziraphale.. is that like... a thing?" and he goes "oh idk i never really thought so why" and I was like "just really getting that vibe also he calls him love like... a couple times" and this man said "yeah but they're british." so anyways happy yeah but they're british to that season two finale stay strong out there my soldiers

it is wild having a family member who is the epitome of “i know a guy” and it ends up being someone who made the song to an animatic i drew in 2020 of my emo furry oc killing her whole family

I think Robby should have been the type of kid that calls adults by their first name

Yknow for all my love of solas and solavellan and blah blah blah, a lot of my solas posts are more so crack posting and jokes so I figured for once I’d make a serious one. Finally become one with my fellow egg lovers yknow? (Cut because I don’t wanna put giant walltext on yalls timeline)

So I know a lot of us here like thinking of solas and their Lavellan having a kid or two. A lot of us like the idea of Dad Solas! But have any of us considered STEPDAD Solas? Hear me out hear me out.

Solas being more hesitant to talk with the kid(s) but not being able to say no to telling them a story or teaching them a few spells when asked (if the child is a mage)

Having a small stack of paintings on his table made by the child because “I wanted to paint like you do hahren!” Even if they’re just handprints or a poorly painted picture of him.

Catching the child helping sera with pranks and the child failing to barter their way out of it:

Child: …

Solas: …

Child: If I sneak you one of those small cakes from the kitchen will you promise to not tell mom?

Solas: No.

—————————

Having to wear a friendship bracelet because the child made one for everyone and who could say no to that face!

A kid having a crush on someone and asking Solas if it’s actually possible to grow flowers with magic

Every now and then teaching the kid(s) simple elvhen phrases

Feeling a small sense of pride when a mage child does a difficult spell (for the child’s level) correctly. Then the child accidentally setting something on fire because they got so exited…

Helping them with homework when their mother is out on a mission (bc you KNOW Josie would get the kid(s) a tutor)

The kid picking up on the vibes between solas and Lavellan very quickly. “I’m not calling him dad”

The confusion when they learn solas ran off and having it slowly turn into disappointment over time

The disappointment turning to anger when they learn of his true identity

Years later, somehow winding up at the lighthouse and finding the stack of paintings and the friendship bracelet

Sitting in the middle of a room, looking at old momentos he kept from both them and their mother…
