Damian: "Red Hood has a pretty severe concussion. What do I do?"

Tim: "Extraction's still ten minutes out, just keep him talking."

Damian, urgently pressing the comm: "I don't want to talk to him, he's even more insufferable than usual."

Jason, lying on the ground, eyes closed: "That's funny Junior, because head trauma's the only thing that makes you bearable."

Damian, to Tim: "I'm leaving. It won't be the first time we've had a closed casket."

Tim, groaning disgustedly: "Robin--ugh, seriously, just stay there and keep him awake."

Damian, seething even more when he sees Jason's smirk: "Fine."

Jason, cracking open one eye: "Aww, are you concerned about me?"

Damian: "Shut up. The only thing I'm concerned about is our family's reputation after your public wipeout on that stupid motorcycle."

Jason:

Damian: "Are you still awake?" *kicks him* "Todd?"

Jason, grinning: "You said our family."

Damian, furious: "I didn't. You've lost more brain cells than you could afford."

Jason: "Wait 'till Tim hears, I think he'll want a group hug. Bruce is probably going to get emotionally constipated. Dickie would probably cry--"

Damian, panicking as he hears the Batmobile get closer: "Stop. Do not tell him--"

Jason: "You better erase every single fucking video of me crashing then."

Damian: "You have a deal."

What is love if not him? What is life without him? He is your sole lover and husband. You couldn't abandon him, not here.

Even when he was calling out to you to leave, to run and take cover. You didn't move. You kept pressure on his wound.

He wouldn't die. He couldn't die. You would change your religion for this man. You had ran away and eloped with him against your family's will. You weren't leaving him now.

Not when he was bleeding out in your arms. He was dying. You both knew that.

Your tears flowed as quick as his blood poured. No, he wouldn't die alone, and he wasn't going to be the only one to die.

In life and death.

The end for Ghost. The start for a pair of ghosts.

Why do people keep saying Snape should be over Lily by now?

I really don't get it. Especially when I think about myself. I lost two of my grandparents when I was 8/10 and even though I'm already in my 20s I'm still not over this loss and I don't think I will ever. Their deaths also does impact my life in some ways like (trying not to get too personal, but) it has negatively impacted my relationship with death, I can't talk about them because I don't know how to handle this grieve... There are nights when I just start crying because I miss them so much, even now writing this already makes me tear up.

Some people might now say “This is different, they were your family, and you were only a child.” but even though I would agree to some extent it's probably not in the way they mean it.

Let me explain with one of my two examples: My grandpa (who died when I was 10) and I were pretty close. From what I remember and have been told he was wonderful with us kids or like my mother once put it: when we were at my “other grandfathers” house we still usually hung around our parents but when we were at my grandpas house we literally forgot that our parents existed. Even though I don't have many memories of him left, I simply remember feeling happy when he was around.

But still, I think this relationship was less important to me than Sev's relationship to Lily was to him. You have to remember that he came from an abusive and neglectful home and probably didn't have any (real) friends before meeting Lily and also later in life. I on the other hand had a pretty loving family, and even the not so good relationships (like with my other grandfather) were still better than Sev's relationship with his father and probably mother too.

So of course it's different.

On the one side you have me, whose relationship with her grandfather is one of many loving ones (yes, it might be the strongest, but that doesn't really change anything).

On the other side you have this boy who has never really received/felt love before, and now he meets this girl, and she makes him feel love(d). I'm not going to argue about what kind of love either of them felt for the other, but I'm pretty sure Sev never gave or got more love to/from anyone ever.

And while loosing my grandparents at such a young age was definitely bad, I could imagine that losing them later in life would be just as bad, maybe even worse. Because having more time with them would obviously be amazing, but at the same time could also make loosing them even worse. So the age difference between me and Sev really doesn't make that much of a difference also considering Snily had a similar amount of time together before their “breakup”.

And this leads me to another difference between Sev and me. Two, actually.

First his friendship with Lilx ended and really not on good terms. Even though I think both are partly at fault here it was Sev calling her a mudblood that ultimately ended it. And he tried to apologize, but Lily didn't accept it. And no matter how you feel about her decision, I think if she had accepted, even if they still hadn't become (good) friends again, it would have made it easier for Sev. I think it would give him some peace of mind and the feeling of her still loving him to some extent.

While the last year of my grandpa's life was let's say complicated, and I didn't meet him as often as usual (a bit similar to Snily) I wouldn't say our relationship was strained especially when you compare it to Snily (I don't want to go into more detail and I also don't remember much of this time).

And the other difference is that Sev is at least partly at fault for Lily's death. Which obviously makes it harder for him to move on, even more so after they ended on a bad note.

I wasn't at fault for my grandpas death and also couldn't have saved him (funny thing is now I have knowledge that maybe could). Yes, the complicated situation of his last year might make his loss a bit harder, but not much.

To conclude, I totally do not understand why people don't understand why Sev can't get over Lily (and her death). Not only was she the only light in his life, the only thing that was ever good about his life, but it was also his fault that first he lost her and later she died.

kinda wild to me that one of the most compelling aspects of both Chuuya and Kunikida's characters to me, that I never really see talked about, is how they're heavily set on a doomed crash course towards complete and utter destruction, and how I am so, so worried for them both.....

Wtf did Dimitri mean "molecular instability". Was Claire's body dipping in and out of the blast? Did warm breezes feel like fire on her skin? Did the cold night air smell like smoke? Did the sunrise look like the flash of an explosion? Did she feel her body turning to ash, only to realize she was still alive?

I... I need to lie down.

Bruce Wayne's parents' deaths from Batman 1989 to the live actions that followed. Common recurring theme: they're leaving a movie/play via alley. Common repeating motifs include: the pearls (purity, loyalty, innocence), the gun, Martha usually holds/shields Bruce, and the fact that Thomas dies first, usually after moving in front of his wife and kid.

Batman (1989) - Starts off at a weird angle looking up at the Waynes (establishing their place in the city?), and above them are gold-yellow rays (lights) but they walk into the darkness. Everyone moves in a very stage-directed, telegraphed way, and the whole scene has a choral, atmospheric feel through lighting and sound. Something follows, seen in blurry shadowed figures. Bruce notices something wrong first, and his parents stop and turn due to him doing so. At first we don't see the killer, but one of his accomplices smiles and tears off Martha's necklace. Then Thomas reacts and the necklace breaks and popcorn goes tumbling down. Garbled, ominous dialogue. For this one, both popcorn and pearls go tumbling down, and we very clearly see the killer's face (grotesquely smiling by the way), and the camera lingers on him and his near-killing of Bruce too before he's interrupted. We see the killer, and then Bruce, and the killer talks to him. This is a night that didn't go as planned, for anyone.

Batman Begins (2005) - We're at the family's level, the alley is seedy from the start (dark and derelict), yet the Waynes are unbothered, their focus entirely on their son. We hear sounds, this is an actively unfolding scene and less of a memory. There's a focus on the family's interactions, but we see the killer this time too (but briefly). This is a much slower scene that builds up to the confrontation and then speeds up with the killings. Thomas is alive long enough to comfort his kid. Bruce silently cries over them, and now it gets choral and atmospheric. This one truly feels like a robbery gone wrong, just a twitchy guy ruining a night that had no indications of this happening at all.

Batman v Superman (2016) - We start from above and descend down through the camera to the Waynes, this is another darker lit scene. Similarly, the Waynes are carefree, however this scene relies more heavily on visuals and music. Interspersed with scenes of running, the gun comes into focus, Thomas goes. There's detail in focused sounds, like clenching of leather, clattering pearls, the bullet casing bouncing. Underwater, memory-esque feel to this one as Martha's pearls go, and we catch a glimpse of the killer. So far this is the one most personal to them, and less interested in the pearls, which are snapped deliberately. We catch a glimpse of the killer. It's the slow happening over seconds, and the location/setting makes it intimate and closed off, as it's a memory with a few defined details but much is lost. You get the feel that the why doesn't matter at all with this one (an important part of the movie as a whole).

Joker (2019) - In this one, the Waynes are fleeing the theatre (quite brightly lit), at odds with their burning city, and a clown sees them and follows. The Waynes enter a dark alley (momentarily separated from the chaos), this is the first in which they're forced into danger, and the clown names them before shooting Thomas. Martha's pearls are snapped after she's shot, and this becomes the most random, yet specific killing of the Waynes, with robbery barely even a motive. Bruce stands between the carnage, blood on his face.

Gotham (2014) - The camera pans up from the killer's perspective, slowly rising up from behind him to the happy, unaware family. They tense up when the killer draws a weapon. This one has the least music, emphasizing the dialogue between Thomas and the killer. There's the inclusion of a third person (our inclusion is most obvious in this one, the rest are vignettes or memories pretty clearly aside from Joker). The music slowly does emerge and it's entirely creepy/dreadful. This killer makes a vocal demand for the necklace. The pearls break while being handed over, they're not torn away. Lots of emphasis on Bruce. Thomas dies first, then Martha, and now the killer turns his weapon on Bruce, who's still standing amongst bounding pearls. He's in danger somehow most in this one. We see the killer's eyes intently before the robber runs past Bruce into the street. Bruce reacts, shaking his parents and bloodying his hands.
