read green arrow rebirth and now I'm thinking about the fucking Library that would be required to maintain any sort of Roy/Jason living arrangement
non fiction is literally everything from quantum mechanics to south china sea trade circa 1850, fiction is a horse we've beat to death ofc
they have to buy a house together because they have chronic "what if I need this again at some unspecified time" disease and can't let go of a single thing
#they're both such nerd#and book nerds at that#not me latching onto roy saying he reads engineering manuals and going āhes just like me frā#resident engineering shoves entire arsenal into their mouth#would they mostly just check things out from the public library? yes ofc#However having money when you aren't used to having money makes u make some Choices#and sometimes those choices are going hog wild in a B&N#well it was a local bookstore but neither here nor there#dc#jason todd#roy harper#redarse#jayroy#yeah i like them#such is life

Holiday Classics
Been thinking about Ford watching the 70s Animated Lord of the Rings Movies... (companion comic to this post!)
#the other two VHS tapes Fidd's is holding are Rankin-Bass' The Hobbit (1977) and Return of the King (1980)! The 70s animated pseudo-trilogy!#A lot of people pointed out on my other lotr 'crossover' post that Ford would have seen the 70s movies!#And i wont lie i entirely forgot they existed. But now i remember i have so many feelings on it okay. Ford my silly LOTR nerd#I dont think he would have seen Bashkis in theaters. far as I can tell it was a VERY limited (likely mostly CA) run in the middle of winter#but Rankin-Bass'? Aired on NBC & ABC. He absolutely woulda watched them or rented a VHS later. Which is why he's most excited by Bashki's#He's just such a nerd. I need him to nerd out. But also lowkey angst on how his single focus on bill/the portal lead#him to neglecting even the small things in life. Like knowing a VHS release of an adaptation of his favourite book series had come out#GF fanart#Gravity Falls#gravity falls comic#Fan art#fanart#fiddleford mcgucket#fiddleford hadron mcgucket#young fiddleford mcgucket#*holds two random VHS tapes in one hand to check Fidd's pose in the 2nd panel makes sense* Well thats mathamatically feasible!#young stanford pines#stanford pines#ford pines#Book of Bill#comic#artists on tumblr#my art#Grunkle ford#fiddauthor#cause Fidds is not talking about the movie there. Well okay he's talking about the portal but He COULD BE TALKING ABOUT- *I am dragged off*

Jason, edgelord since day one. Who also happens to read classic literature. Wearing leather even in medieval times because of course he is. Donāt ask me how he got those soles on his boots.
Still to come are yet more bats who canāt sit straight.

Everyone thinks that dick was the golden child when in reality it was Jason.
Clark: Bruce who was your favourite robin?
Dick: obviously itās me?
Tim: itās dick
Damian: I am superior robin, it will be me.
Bruce: itās Jason
Everyone: WHAT?!?!???
Bruce: why are you so surprised? He didnāt jump on too my chandeliers which I had to replace each week
*everyone looks at dick*
Bruce: he didnāt drop out of school
*everyone looks at tim*
Bruce: I didnāt have to stop him from killing everyone who annoyed him
*everyone looks at Damian*
Bruce: in fact, he enjoyed school and handed all his homework in on time, we would spend hours in the library reading his favourite classics. He even helped Alfred with most of the cooking, He was my little boy
Jason: stop spreading lies, I hate you go away
Bruce: my precious little boy

do skully have pokemon?
Pumpkaboo is the obvious one, but y'know, sometimes the obvious one is the right one! (we'll say SUPER SIZE Pumpkaboo, just for fun. big pumpkin for big skeleton boy.) and another person actually also suggested Greavard, which I somehow hadn't considered, but feels so perfect that I feel like I should have. dangit.
(they can also have little Nightmare Suit costumes :D)

Dear authors,
The phrase "crocodile tears" should be used to reference someone who is faking an emotion. It's not about the tears or crying themselves. Definitely not about a quantity of tears cried or sobs involved. (Fun fact: there's also a condition nicknamed "crocodile tears." It causes sufferers to shed tears after eating or drinking after recovering from damage to a facial nerve.)
Apparently, this phrase is derived from an Egyptian fable that said that crocodiles shed tears while eating their prey.
I've seen several authors use "crocodile tears" to describe the tears of a child or innocent person. Seemingly trying to convey the emotion is too large or impactful for such a person. If you need a new word, try describing someone as sobbing, wailing, or even blubbering. Or perhaps inconsolable, disconsolate, or heartbroken.
The distinction between real and false emotions is very important.
Earnestly,
An avid reader

Iāve seen multiple āBest Death Personificationā brackets on this website, and every time the Discworld fandom turns up en masse to vote for Discworld Death, and itās always deserved, and itās always funny. A horde of book nerds rising up in defence of their collective grandfather.
