#I don’t like winter

[heyyallitssatan]

Bruce and all of his kids, are full of scar tissue and mended bones

Every single one of them can count on two hands or less how many bones they haven’t broken, and they can count on even less how many joints they have dislocated, and don’t even get me started on sprains

Point is, the Batfam haven’t exactly taken a lot of care with their very fragile human bodies over the years of vigilantism

You know what makes old scars burn and old breaks ache, and what makes every sprained stretched muscle tight

The cold

So Bruce, and all of his kids legal and not, fucking hate winter, they hate the cold, because it makes everything tighter, every warm up take a little longer, everything hurt just a little more

Of course you wouldn’t know it, with Dick striking poses that would make professional contortionists cry, or Cass landing perfect flip kicks, or Steph and duke giving each other massages, or Damian doing yoga, or Jason hitting pads with Bruce, or even Tim running through a cardio workout that puts the JL to shame

They would never show that pain, that weakness, to anyone else, because some villains would target those potential pain points if they ever saw even a hint of them, but more than that, because they have to be strong, for their teams, for each other, for the entire world

So you may never know that Dick spent an hour stretching out his left shoulder this morning, the first dislocation he ever go on patrol

Or that Cass is practicing flip kicks because he knees are killing her but she needs to know that they won’t be a hindrance

Or that Steph and Duke are giving each other pre workout massages because they’re covered in knots that make moving hard

Or that Damian is doing yoga because it helps with the imagined cold and real pain from having metal in your spine

Or that Jason’s broken fists sting with each hit

Or that Bruce is wearing a back brace today because his broken spine was killing him this morning

Or that Tim is doing cardio because the cold makes breathing a little harder so he has to be prepared

You’ll never know how much pain they’re in, not in the field when they broke their ribs and are coughing up blood, certainly not when they’re training the pain of the cold away

Because that’s what they do, they keep training, until it doesn’t hurt, or until they know for a fact that it doesn’t matter if it does

The Bats hate the cold, but they’ll be damned if they ever let it stop them

It’s ironic… you know? Maine coons coats are designed for cold climates and foxes hunt perfectly fine in the snow… and I’m pretty sure raccoons just eat whatever they find, but still, it’s hard to accept that 2/3 of my theriotypes are made for winter and yet, I hate the cold outside. I wish I could hibernate.

Having raynaud’s phenomenon and living in a place with fairly cold winters is wild, being outside for like 10 minutes makes my fingers hate me and feel like they’re on fire 🔥 but the rest of me is fine so I have to choose between do I want to get this chore done or do I want to feel my fingers? XD

There are people out there who genuinely think that the Starks aren’t thematically linked to ice in a way that is meaningful and central to the story? What?? I mean, never mind that they’re characterized as exclusively living in a frozen land, it is said that a Stark who goes south of the Neck melts. It’s not like their ancestral sword is called Ice. It’s not like they rule a castle called Winterfell. It’s not like their house words are “Winter is coming”. It’s not like their banner is a direwolf (a creature that is now synonymous with the snowy north) running on what is described as either snow or an ice-white background. It’s not like they are consistently characterized with having icy or cold demeanors to the point of it being a house trait (e.g., Benjen, Ned, Jon). It’s not like they ruled thousands of years as Kings of Winter. It’s not like the Starks, the wolves, are said to be uniquely suited to surviving winter. It’s not like a big part of their house legacy and how they even came to be is the construction of a giant ice Wall. It’s not like a key historical event in the last couple centuries is the Pact of Ice (Stark) and Fire (Targaryen). Apparently none of that matters 🙄 It’s so disingenuous to claim that any house with First Men blood would take on the role of ice. No, that’s a special characteristic given to the STARKS, and their connection with ice and winter and snow has thematic relevance.
