Happy belated birthday to the twin terrors, Red & Russ Way! I'm sure they had a lot of fun and shenanigans. XD (I did think of them on their actual birthday, November 11th, but it was when I was driving and then by the time I got home things were busy and I forgot.)

"Songbird!"
"Birdie!"
"Songbirdie!"
"What have you done??"
(An excerpt from much further ahead in Annaáuchiwee. The twins make me giggle.)

Hang on, hang on, lemme just...
Riser handed Songbird a beer and cracked his own. "You know," he began in complete non-sequitur, "I am fascinated by how dislocate seems to be a word used almost exclusively anatomically. Strictly used to refer to body parts out of place. You don't, for instance, say," he gestured vaguely with his can, "I dislocated my keys, even though that is a perfectly correct and coherent sentence."
Birdie snickered into his drink and Riser continued, "On the other hand, it would be really funny to say 'I mislocated my shoulder' to announce a devastating injury." He pointed to the other side of the room with a droll expression, miming clutching his collarbone around his can. "It went that way."
"Don't," Max grunted from the kitchen.
Cary, slumped on the couch, spoke without looking up from here he was scrolling on his phone. "It's because the dis- prefix in English carries a strong sense of undoing or reversal, whereas mis- means to do badly. So if my keys are misplaced that means I put them in the wrong spot, but if they are displaced it means someone else moved them from where they were supposed to be."
He turned his head briefly to cough into his shoulder, impervious to or merely unaware of the daggers being glared at the back of his head by his two immediately older brothers. "There's a lot of dis- words for body parts! Dislocate, dismember, disarticulate - if a corpse is disarticulated that means it's all jumbled up and torn apart. If it's misarticulated you put it together wrong in the first place. Maybe don't be putting bodies back together, though." He looked up at last with a vague sort of frown. "....a better minimal pair would have been disassembled (taken apart) vs misassembled (put together wrong), wouldn't it."
A momentary silence descended over the house following this exposition. Riser wore a look of flat distaste and took a long and pointed slurp of his beer. Birdie merely looked pained.
Ken, fidgeting with some doohickey of metal and wire, was the first to break the silence. "The existence of the word misadventure - that is, an unfortunate event happening to you, typically of your own doing - implies the existence of disadventure, that is, an unfortunate event of someone else's doing. And I'll be bringing this into my vocabulary for situations where other people's mistakes have become my problem." A deeply pointed look at the armchair where Red was sitting perched on the arm and Russ was dangling off the seat with his feet up on the back.
Russ tipped his head thoughtfully, a rather odd sight considering his current upside down position. "So if I make an unprofitable choice and have nobody to blame for it but myself, it's misadvantageous?" he queried generally.
Red answered obligingly. "I would say that misadvantageous is more something that is advantageous, just not for you. Someone would benefit, but you are not that someone."
"None of us benefit from the two of you," Riser said snarkily, crumpling his beer can up to wing it at the twins before taking to his heels to avoid their yelling retribution.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
All credit for quotes to everyone in this thread, obviously! 😅
fascinated by how "dislocate" seems to be a word used almost exclusively to refer to the misalignment of bodies, or parts of the body, from their proper place. it's distinctly anatomical. you don't say "i dislocated my keys" for instance, even though that's technically a correct and coherent sentence.

(Dick coming to collect Jason after he’s been “wrongfully” captured by the justice league while Batman is off world:)
Dick: Listen, Hood might be a criminal, but he’s one of Gotham’s. And he’s my brother.
JL: he killed 80 people in two days.
Dick: …he’s adopted?
Jason, glaring while bound to a chair: SO ARE YOU???
#cannot believe nobody has done this before??#or am I just not looking properly#one of my favourite genre of fics it is so funny lmao#anyhow dick and Jason are so Thor and Loki coded in a way (older brother believing his younger brother is dead but actually he’s not)#dc comics#batman#batfam#bruce wayne#dcu#batfamily#dc robin#jason todd#dick grayson#nightwing#red hood#incorrect dc quotes#incorrect justice league quotes#incorrect batman quotes#incorrect batfamily quotes#marvel#marvel quotes#thor and loki#dick and jason

the fact that alfred was the one to put up jason's memorial is so important to me
#alfred's military background and his sudden shove into parenthood are things i think about a lot#alfred using the term 'soldier' as something honourable. as something to take pride in.#alfred putting 'a good soldier' on jason's plaque to show his care#the voice in bruce's head referring to his children as his soldiers sounding suspiciously like alfred's#bruce initially refusing to acknowledge jason's existence after his death bc it's the only way he can keep going#& alfred saying 'i will not let you do this. if you will not acknowledge him in your daily life i will make you do so every night'#because alfred doesn't know how to acknowledge the absence of a child either#besides going about your life and praying hoping wishing that they return somehow safe and sound#but he knows how to honour fallen soldiers.#and he will help you in the only way that he can.#sorry i just have so many thoughts about this#(justice league 19)#alfred pennyworth#jason todd#red hood#bruce wayne#batman

does anyone have like an anti aesthetic. like something you look at and can recognize as a complete fashion/interior design/artistic movement and understand it but it makes you shudder seeing it. i am not talking like “its morally bad” “its poorly structured” like just sheerly devoid of joy for you actually invites a repulse response.
#also if it wasnt clear this isnt ‘its bad its lazy’ there is a level of like#completion consistancy i am thinking for with this#personally i really do not enjoy the like. vintage chic long red nails fur coats noir esque aesthetic HOWEVER 💥💥💥#i can recognize that it is put together it is Intentional#i feel like a lot of people are going to say minimalism on this so LET ME SAY 🫰☝️ i recognize that minimalism is Considered an aesthetic#but i *PERSONALLY* do not consider it an aesthetic i consider it the void of one#it is a lapse in aesthetic or personality in the same way a silence in a song is still technically a ‘beat’ but no music is played#however the importance of Space or Breath in design is more akin to a purposeful silence in music#because that silence matters in the same way rhythm and breath in design do#so i guess minimalism is more comparable to like. white noise. the sound of a fan#very little effort and there is a comfort in it i suppose but its not. A Design. okay#TO ME 🤫#if minimalism has one hater its me if minimalism has no haters im dead

Nothing will dispell the "the curtains were just blue" myth faster than writing something yourself, because the amount of pretentious symbolism i am putting in my silly little fanfics is ridiculous. I mean SO much with these words, literally every single one of them. This fic has twenty five typos and zero correct uses of punctuation but if there's curtains you bet your ass I put thought into what colour they were.
#writing#fic writing#like this is stuff i'm doing for fun with my perfectionism meter turned down as far as i can get it#and i am still thinking about it A LOT#talk to me about how in red string fic jgy perceives the memory block both as syrup and as mud but nmj thinks it feels like blood#it's just a thing in their heads that mentally feels kind of thick and sticky but they both made something different of it#it's about issues with cleanliness / lies as a way to craft an illusion of a better lopking world vs the constant violence nmj lives in

Jason: "Don't attack, it's me."
Dick, staring at the target through the scope: "Finally, what took you so long--" *turns and stares*
Jason, in Discowing suit: "Bike had problems. What?
Dick: "You know what."
Jason: "Come on, you don't like my Halloween costume? Literally had to fight Robin 3 for it."
Dick:
Jason, grinning: "Too soon?"
Dick: "Let's just get this over with, I can't even look at you right now."
Jason, muttering as he takes the scope from him: "Holy self-loathing Batman."
Dick: *shoves him off the roof*

Prompt:
Brucie Wayne gets into a mild accident in public (read-got hit by a car). And Batman would just walk it off (“it’s barely a bruise”), but Brucie obviously… can’t.
So he has to suffer the ordeal of having civilians call paramedics, getting fussed over, and having-
Having his dead son get into the back of the ambulance with him.
Oh- oh no. He must have hit his head worse than he thought. He thought he was past this…
#((Jason is the one who hit him with the car))#(((but it truly was an accident)))#((((and now his elaborate revenge plans got derailed because OMG I HIT MY DAD WITH A CAR))))#Brucie gets to blubber and cry about his son in a way Batman isn’t allowed to#meanwhile Jason: omg pls shut up PLS I’m BEGGING you just die already#Bruce: anything for you 🥹#Jason: …. hold on no I didn’t mean that B do NOT fall asleep on me right now#some more fake hallucinations#but nobody thinks it’s a hallucination except Bruce#also: Wayne Son Back From The Dead!? more on page two!#((Jason takes his revenge by trying to boot Tim from the family and realizing he’s not even part of it which—))#((is anybody taking care of that raccoon? well Jason is now))))#prompts#crack au#fanfiction#inspiration#jason todd#batfamily#dick grayson#bruce wayne#batfam#robin#tim drake#red hood#Batdad#Brucie wayne

Bruce being so smiley and happy around Robin! Jason shatters me so intimately. Soft as hell if this continues when Jason’s red hood, too.
“Robin,” Bruce calls him that out of habit and isn’t at all surprised when Jason swiftly punches his arm, only to rub the place a moment later, even if Bruce barely notices. “This is not the time for jokes.”
“ Three o’clock is always the time for jokes. You scheduled it.”
“Nightwing was turned into a rabbit. And you’re laughing.”
“Have you seen the guy’s Tik Toks? This is as dignified as he’ll ever be.”
Jason is very sure Dick can understand them, because he’s biting hard through his boots. Even harder when Bruce snorts and presses his lips in a white line.
Don’t get me wrong, thought, it’s vice versa.
“I think we’re gonna have to kill this guy, B.” Talking about a guy who cut the line in Batburger while Cass was trying to order.
Bruce, in his Batman voice, “fuck!”
Jason has one of those laughing fits where you get on the floor, breathless and limp. “This brings up memories.”
“ROBIN.”
#I know it in my heart Bruce and Jason have a special look where they make fun of people together#in a very mother daughter way. anyway I just want others to be freaked out by batman giggling quietly after red hood made the worst joke#in human history.#I love them#bruce wayne#dc#dc comics#jason todd#batdad#batman#text#batfamily

It's Talk Shop Tuesday again! *plonks myself down* This time I want to know about the twins. Russ and Red. Anything you want to tell me. Favorite things, best pranks, shenanigans, ways they're different or similar, all of the above or more, anything at all.
Oh boy. Today on characters I need to develop more...
So Russ is the older twin. Only by a few minutes but he doesn't let Red forget it. He is slightly more reserved and less talkative. Visually speaking, they are entirely identical, and yes they absolutely lean into this, intentionally giving off the impression of being two halves of the same person.
This is also not entirely inaccurate, as they are remarkably similar in manners and mannerisms and taste, as well as personality. They are also second only to Riser in wildness, but while they're not particularly... hm... soft-hearted, they don't have his actual taste for cruelty that Max keeps reined in. And they love their mama.
Thank you for the ask!
