ThePandaRedd mentioned that Tim Robin was not necessarily a good sidekick, BECAUSE his Robin was more on level with Batman as a partner than the other Robins ever were.

(He also goes into the dynamic of Batgirl. Highly recommend his stuff, it's neat 👍🏼)

Anyway, I'd like to expand on that thought, just a touch.

With Dick and Jason, Bruce definitely had an established mentor/father role. While Tim was the one pushing/parenting Bruce to get his shit together.

Yes, Batman still often took lead, but that's because he's Batman, and Tim was child.

But in terms of their relationship, their dynamic and the shared expectations with crime fighting were far closer to working partners than "leading hero and following sidekick."

With this perspective, the confrontation with Dick giving Damian Robin opens a new conversation.

Like when Dick said that he saw Tim more as an equal and not a sidekick, Tim didn't take it as a good enough reason. Because, for Tim, of course they would be equal partners. Batman and Tim's Robin were already equal partners, and they had BEEN working that way for a while.

Dick as Robin was a sidekick, and Jason was as well, so he assumed Tim was also a sidekick waiting to step out of Batman's shadow.

But Tim wasn't. He never expected to be Dick's "sidekick." He believed working side by side as a team with Dick was the obvious natural route.

So, when the decision was made to make Damian Robin, Tims perspective would veiw Dick's choice as him saying that he didn't want Tim specifically as a partner. That Dick is having an issue with him as a person and not about having an issue with the power dynamic.

The lovely Hornetstar from @ghostclangen! I tried to capture her large size and long fur~ This clan has covered so much story in such a short time and Hornet was there from the beginning. Diplomatic and determined, she brought Ghostclan far! I'll miss her ❤️

Okay one more post before I head to bed, but at least it's some good news this time

Basically Aypierre put out a tweet that said he's going to stream QSMP today, and that communications are in fact still happening between all the Admins and Quackity. He specifically said that "The communication and the lobby on the French side continues so that one way or another Pomme and the other eggs come back in the right conditions." (According to a translation I found on Twitter)

Antoine and Baghera have both said that they wouldn't come back without the same Admin as usual playing Pomme, and while I haven't personally seen anything from Aypierre about that, there's a pretty good chance he feels the same way. So his assurance that things are happening is a good sign. Let's at least be thankful for that for now

⛵️ Five Fandoms, Five Ships ⛵

Get to know the blogger, via five different ships from five different fandoms!

Thanks for the tag @underacalicosky !!

Putting it under the cut because this is LONG, sorry.

I love them your honor. Doesn't even have to be romantic, I just want to see them being obsessed about each other. I'm also a pretty big obianidala fan, hence why I added her too. (I'm a multishipper really. I have my otp but there's a lot of ships that I enjoy)

1. Obi-Wan Kenobi/Anakin Skywalker(/Padmé Amidala) (Star Wars)

When I first watched star wars (not that long ago, I only watched it because I wanted to see the sequels in theater lmao) I wasn't a big fan of the prequels so I mostly ignored them, but then a couple years ago I randomly rewatched them in the middle of the night and suddenly I was obsessed. I'm not even sure how I ended up on AO3 (did I go look for obikin? Did I stumble on it? Idk) but eventually I started reading Pining in Preschool, then realised that @palfriendpatine66 was on tumblr, I started interacting with more people around here, and now I'm (slowly) writing fics, and I'm having the time of my life here, so thanks Pal!

I don't think any if my past fandom brainrots reached my current level so I'm pretty sure I'm here for the long haul (at least it's not stopping anytime soon).

It's not super obvious here but I'm actually a huge Marvel fan (well, the MCU, I've never read a comic), and especially Captain America. Stucky is just, 🤌 so tasty (a lot of similarities with obikin actually imo). I'd like to talk to whoever thought "I'm with you 'til the end of the line" was a straight sentence to repeatedly say to your bro throughout an entire century though. Like?? I'm all for relationships that defy the boundaries of platonic and romantic, but still, that's kinda gay.

2. Steve Rogers/James "Bucky" Barnes(/Peggy Carter) (Marvel Cinematic Universe)

The first MCU movie I saw was actually captain america 2 (and not the first one lol) in theater, and I was instantly hooked, though since Endgame I've been less into it, since my fav is gone (and I have to agree with tumblr on that one: they're making too many movies and shows, I can't keep up 😩)

(And I'm still super salty about what they did to steve in canon, they should have killed him off instead of whatever the fuck that was, honestly)

I also added Peggy because she's great, and polyamory is so much better than love triangles or shipping wars. (I'm not polyamorous but I believe in their beliefs. I think it's because of the aromanticism)

Same as with obikin (and stucky too tbh) I don't really care how they love each other, I just care that they do. They're the most important person to each other, be it romantic, platonic, familial, idc.

3. John Watson/Sherlock Holmes (mostly BBC Sherlock, but from the RDJ movies and the books too)

I've obsessed over (non-existent) clues during the last season, and deluded myself into thinking they'd become canon, alas, it didn't happen.

I've translated a couple of fics in french for that ship, but I've never written for it (I thought about it tho), and I've read a lot. That's the fandom where I've read some of the best queerplatonic fics, and that's my favorite interpretation of the ship, especially sherlock being some flavor of aroace.

4. Aziraphale/Crowley (Good Omens)

I love them as a queerplatonic relationship, and I genuinely think that's what they are in canon, the haters can suck it, that's not queerbaiting even if they dont become a canon couple.

Okay, I'm starting to see a patern here. Am I really that predictable? You can just copy-past what I said above.

(I'm fully on board with them being a couple though)

Hey, a straight ship! With a woman not added as a second thought!

5. Elizabeth Bennet/Mr Darcy (Pride and Prejudice)

Not quite the same vibe as the others, but I've read sooo many fics and books (straight up published fics lol), I've watched a bunch of different adaptations (even the one with zombies)... The worst part is that I think I've only read the og book once, oops.

I actually inherited that fandom from the women in my family lmao. My mom, sister and sister-in-law are all obsessed with it, so I read it to see what all the fuss was about and, yeah, I get it.

And that's it! There are other fandoms I'm into, and other ships in those fandoms, but that's pretty much it (the main one that's missing is Dinluke, the others are mostly smaller ones).

I'm not super actively in those fandoms (apart from Star Wars obviously) but i come back to them now and then. Usually I re-watch it then binge-read a bunch of fics (while my main fandom stays in the main spot in my brain) then I let it go again until it comes back (while obikin still stays in the main spot).

Also Harry Potter used to be my main obsession but JKR kinda ruined that for me so I'm not really into it anymore (hence why I didn't list it even though I have written fics for it).

Anyway that was way too long, if you've read all of this then props to you!

I'm tagging: @cottonraincoat @fem-anakin-skywalker @kingdomvel @ineffable-snowman @arobiwan (and whoever else wants to do it because I'm nosy and I want to know stuff about people)
