how much of his experiences with Caro does Johnny remember rn in SD? Is he getting them back at all?
Spoileryish stuff under the cut for his memories
TL;DR: Initially he remembered almost nothing about it. But now, he remembers that they were a cheerleader and they were friends and he had feelings for them. He remembers the supernatural things. He remembers Caros family was horrible and he wanted to help them, and that he couldnt. He doesnt remember finer details. kisses or hand holding or that they dated. he knows these things because hes been told but the memories arent his right now. but things are coming back.
Long story long RIGHT now at this moment in SD, it still vague for him but he is slowly getting things back. He remembers a cheerleader (he makes reference to a 'cute little cheerleader' in the Creaky chapter that Caro confirms was in fact them.) PTSD, Trauma and brain damage from both abuse and actually physically dying for a short period all contribute to Johnny having a lot of blank spots and fuzzy details in his memories of childhood/teenagehood. He remembers Caro was his neighbor after he puts together that Caro and Carrie are the same person (which takes a bit longer for him since they look and sound a little different these days and his memory of them is distorted, he has no pictures or anything to remind him. There is a scene in Mil-Liminal where Maddie shows him a yearbook photo and at least the part that he knows them QUITE WELL comes crashing back.) He does not remember they did have a chance to become 'official,' and actually dated, it happened so close to his major injuries/brush with death, but he does know it happened at this point, cuz Caro's told him. Things do come back to him, if he's reminded, for instance, Caro being trans now reminds him they told him about it once when they were kids, that it was something he knew about. Caro having their attack the night he hangs out with them reminds him they've ALWAYS experienced the supernatural. he falls into patterns with them that he did when he was younger, such as the way he sings to them or held them because of habit and familiarity even if he doesnt exactly remember. He's slowly putting the pieces back together as they are presented to him. i was asked while writing this reply if he has sense memory, and yes, caros scent, the feel of them, songs they liked together, if he ever gets into the Datsun again, all those things play into it. He does NOT remember the pendant Caro wears. Or that he gave it to them. Or that it was even his. When Caro speaks of him in the podcast, and he listens to it, he does not realize its him they are talking about. When they tell him it was about him, he actually still has a hard time believing that someone could speak about HIM in such a poetic and yearning way. Theres many things he remembers, and many things he knows because hes been told, but he does still have a hard time distinguishing which is which. I do want to note that there is inconsistencies in SD when it comes to these two, mostly because their relationship wasnt actually supposed to be canon, and Caro wasnt supposed to be in SD at all, its been a fun challenge to tie things back together with it, when i first started making the comic, I decided I'd leave room in my narratives for me to be creative and change up original concepts and even the way i draw if i wanted too as long as the Main Story was consistent, which helps keep things fun to create for me, especially for something ive been working on for 6 years! I'm actually touching on Johns memories in i think next months episode of SD, (it can be read early on Tapas's Early access with ink right now) so theres definitely more about it coming up <3

Yes hi hello, I'd love to hear ur thoughts on the al ghul children
Hi yes hello I'd love to talk about them
I am so weak to assassin children you have no idea so anyway
The Al Ghul Children. Are so freaking TRAGIC and I can never get over them
So you have the baby generation which is Mara and Damian and Athantasia; then the original generation, which is Dusan, Nyssa, and Talia.
Attie straight up doesn't exist in most media but in the game(?) where she does she's Damian baby sister who was kept a secret until he couldn't go back to being with the bats. I think about her all the time. What did she know about Damian growing up? Did she ever want to meet him? How many times did she sit in the middle of the night and wish for her brother to do something unforgivable so he could come back? Or was she glad he was gone? The league canonically pits their kids against each other, did she grow up resenting him? Or, even if she liked the idea of him, did she resent him anyway for being the child who went to Bruce? Did she take up Damian's place in the duels with Mara?
Athantasia isn't used nearly enough for her potential she is blorbo-shaped.
And then Damian! Itty bitty baby boy with a sword and issues. I think so much about how he's naturally soft but he can't be because of circumstance. How many quiet moments were lost to blood, how long did it take for him to learn what a genuine human connection felt like? What if he never did? I've been around humans I love since I was born, and I still sometimes feel absolutely disconnected from them. How much superiority is covering for insecurity? We've seen him make friends, Maps, Colin, Jon, as the three I actually care about, and he likes them. Did he make friends in the league? What happened to them? Or did he just, for lack of a better word, imprint, on other assassins?
In a complete other fandom I'm propagating biting as a love language and Damian has that vibe too.
and MARA
Holy fudge Mara also sends me; being constantly raised not only as a weapon, but being told you're the second best weapon and that maybe you can gain more prestige if you beat your cousin in a deadly duel, except even if you do win you know you will never get the recognition you're trying for because his mother is favored and your father isn't
Were she and Damian ever close, or as close as they could get? Did they plan how to lead the league when they weren't trying to take each others' eyes out, did she ever meet Attie, did she take her anger on Damian out on Attie, is the red streak something she does to hide a lazarus streak or is it natural from her dad? Can she see out of her other eye? Where did she see herself in the league before Damian deserted? Is she close to her teammates in the fist or are they just the prettiest canon fodder Ra's could send?
Is there a part of her that is as relieved to be hunting Damian down as it is angry, because at least fighting him is familiar?
The older three also make me Feel Things but not as much as the kiddos.
Nyssa apparently survived the holocaust? And then Ra's murdered her kids and then repeatedly killed her and dropped her into the pits for... something? I don't remember if I ever learned why that happened, but it did and it's so horrid? Drove her to insanity, surprise surprise. I recommend Misericordia and it's sequel on ao3 if you want to cry over Steph, Damian, Talia, and Nyssa. And then the Nyssa Al Ghul & Tim Drake Tag, if you're feeling adventurous. I don't even know the NAMES of Nyssa's kids and that makes me incredibly sad.
Would they have gotten along with the other three? Would they have taken them and ran? Or would they train them, keeping their bloodline strong, and just quietly know that these are their cousins and they're so proud?
And Talia gets rewritten every other writer but there are so many options when characterizing her and they're so much fun. But also everyone else deals with her so jumping to the next one. I think Talia is also the youngest? Don't quote me on that
Anyway last al ghul I think too much about is Dusan. I can't remember if he's the oldest or the middle child but despite being Ra's' male heir he straight up got sent away because he has albinism? And then he fought his way back into his father's ranks under an alias? He went so far for approval and he's still overlooked, and his kid is considered second rate, even though he's personally considered to be terrifying?
How long did it take him to come back? Why didn't he stay away? Does he ever regret it, now that he's back in the league?
i just. There are lots. and lots. of thoughts about them. And I'm sure there are more al ghuls hiding somewhere for me to lose my everloving mind over but I haven't met them yet
the inherent hate of someone who has everything you think you want battling with the inherent love for someone who has gone through the same horrors you have
#the al ghuls#nyssa al ghul#dusan al ghul#talia al ghul#damian wayne#mara al ghul#athantasia al ghul#jaymeow speaks#batman#ask box things#iveofficiallygonemad#rambles#one day I'll just write a longfic

What’s Crunchy’s credentials? Did he go to college?
Crunchy has a degree, most likely has a bachelor's in Criminology and Criminal Justice! He also was in the army and won some competitions in the college too. I believe he tries to keep appearing to everyone like a really hardworking guy who is good at his job, but not the best to not attract too much attention. Crunchy is also without flaws! He kinda lacks strength so he relies a lot on his cat agility and can go into berserk, losing all ability to think straight at the killings, especially if something goes wrong. But with all of that, I think in general in their world a lot of mistakes are overseen and forgotten and there are a lot of flaws in the system, not much oversight for these types of things and that's why he can commit crimes that he commits and justifies them as "clearing the city from scums". In the better world he would've probably already be caught since he really makes a lot of mistakes if he loses it. So yeah, he is really credible at the first glance, but it's not hard to be credible in the HTF universe anyway... Bonus: "The suspect appears to be male, carnivore and knowledgeable of our system and department. He never leaves evidence, covers all trails and tricks our department into thinking that he is one of us, but that's can't be true! No one in our department will do such things, so it must be a wannabe who gone wild with their vigilantism… Maybe someone who was rejected from joining our department! Am I right, Crunchy? *Affirmative mhm can be heard from afar*" - From the voice recorded report of special agent Dorks.

Do you have any opinions about Zoroark?
Zoroark is a really cool pokemon imo. Big fox creature who can do awesome illusions. They can also carry Zoruas in their manes and I think that's adorable. Kinda wish they kept the tail when they evolved though. Not sure why they lose it.

Forgive me if this is weird to say, but as someone who really struggles to get attached to his own ocs out if fear of seeming cringe (and trying really hard to break out of thar) I really admire how much you unabashedly love your characters and how much it shows in your art
hahaha its not weird to say at all, I actually also struggle with this. I get a lot of self embarrassment and feel cringe about the fact that i draw the same things all the time, i dunno if that helps to hear. Sometimes I even refrain from posting things for a few days, or i wont post them in places like patreon or my patreon server or something cuz i have this fear of 'Oh Not Again.'
I think what helps me is remembering that first and foremost, I created my ocs for ME. I draw them for me. everything I do, its for me, coping mechanisms, self therapy, working through issues, or just for fun and aesthetic. They are extensions of me, and loving them is basically learning to love me. I put the care i should have been giving myself all this time into them, and it weirdly helps with my own self love journey, cuz honestly I feel pretty cringe most of the time and like i dont belong in most spaces. My ocs ease that, its a way of putting my heart and thoughts on paper so to speak.
These days i tell myself if people get bored, or dont want to see characters, or think im cringey, they have the freedom to unfollow. The internet is a vast place. When people are jerks about it, which I'll be honest, has happened WAY less than my brain tells me it will, i ignore and move on. No one has to be here. Has it happened? Yeah once or twice maybe, but compared to the positive messages I get its really rare. it's more that i think the rejection hurts us more when we hear it, I combat this by keeping a document where I've copy pasted all the comments/tags/dms that made me feel good, that way i can read through it and remind myself most people that are here love what i do. i like to think thats why people followed me.
And you know what, its so hard to separate ourselves from what people think of us, so remember the good things, cuz its incredibly rewarding that theres people who DO wanna be here. That love them maybe just as much as me. That feeling is WAY Bigger than the cringe feeling. The fact that i CAN be obsessive and cringe and people are on this ride with me? Holy Shit like I cant even describe how good that feels.
Create first and foremost for you. Thats the win, right there. And if it so happens others want to walk that road with you, well you've already won by creating so thats just a really cool bonus. Remember the kind interactions you have with people.They mean so much more than the negative ones. Love your ocs cuz they are a part of you in some kinda way and you deserve that love and care too.
-RJ
#ask box things#i hesitate every time i post a new picture of Caro and John i really do#i over think it so much#im embarrassed but everytime ive expressed that people come in the comments like#why do you think we are here if not for them?#and i remember oh yeah true

Also while ur at it if u have any specific damian hc u wanna share 👀
This is so niche but aside from the kind of popular hc that Damian hates Tim bc he doesn't know how to show affection/awe/respect without murder being involved, which I do love, my secondary hc is just a rewrite of his titans team.
I looked at the canon one. And then I said 'mm screw you, no thanks'.
So in my head, Damian's Titans team has Superboy (Jon), Abuse (Colin), Princess Marvel (Darla), Jae and Irey West, Soulfire (Mari'ander), Lian Harper, and when I can swing it for an au Athantasia, as well. Spiritually Nobody/Maya Ducard is also there but in practice I don't feel comfortable writing her. :( I don't know enough about Maps to use her anywhere but if I did I'd shove her in somehow. Maybe as their Oracle Equivalent.
No one else uses this line up but in my heart they're there. I love them all to death. It's the team he deserves.
#Yes this team is just 'Damian's friends and heroes in his generation according to my mental timeline'#he deserves to have a team made of people he feels close to#everyone else got one#also less of a beatdown/superiority thing going on since half of them he cares about on their own#and the other half are violently golden retriever coded#thanks for the ask#ask box things#mar'i grayson#Lian Harper#athantasia al ghul#maya ducard#maps mizoguchi#darla dudley#jae west#irey west#colin wilkes#Jon Kent#damian wayne#jaymeow speaks#iveofficiallygonemad

7 with FirstPrince please! (And thanks for jumping on the Ficlet Friday wagon 💛🥹)
hey Taylor, I noodled on this one as I drove and when we got settled in at our hotel tonight, I needed to put my fingers to keyboard and it got a little away from me lolz
so number 7 was 'Say yes. You deserve it.' and you wanted firstprince so here goes :)
Alex sits in the living room of the brownstone, technically theirs, but he is still housing his stuff at the place he is renting. He has a few more months on his lease, and then he is moving in, rushing or anything else people may claim they were doing, be damned. He’s not sure how he didn’t notice this before, but as he sits there, just him and David, Henry gone at a meeting for the shelter, he sees it as plain as day. Somehow, other than pieces he knows June, or Bea, when she’s been over to visit, helped him pick out he has neglected to really decorate. He knows that he didn’t really go crazy with it when he was living in Kensington, but they’ve talked many times about all the things they would get for the place, even before Henry had moved in.
Alex assumed that Henry was getting all the things that he had said he wanted when they were talking about them. Earlier, when he had to grab the toy David had left in the office and refused to get on his own, he had noticed all the things that were in there for David and even the collection of little things Henry had mentioned he picked up for Alex, but missing were any things representing Henry. Other than, of course, the books he had brought with him and his laptop sitting on the desk, there was so little that showed anyone spent time in that office other than Alex and David.
When Henry walks in, back from his meeting and seemingly eager to spend time with Alex and David, he can’t help but blurt out the words, “Hen, why isn’t there anything here that shows you live here? Why does this place only look like David and I live here?”
Of course, Henry, not subject to Alex’s thoughts of the last few hours, looks at him confused. “What do you mean? I have clothes and books and most of the physical items I own here. Of course, it looks like I live here; that book right there on the table beside you is mine,” Henry says, gesturing to the book on the end table beside Alex.
“Yes, Hen, all of your stuff you came here with,” Alex gets up off the sofa, another item that was chosen by someone other than Henry, this time Alex, and walks to where Henry stands, hands clasped together, fingers clenched around each other. He takes Henry’s hands in his, and leads him to the sofa, sitting back down and pulling Henry down to sit with him. “Henry, I know you and I have talked about plenty of things we’d like to get for this place, and while I see plenty of the things I’ve mentioned, I see very few other than ones someone else either picked out while with you or just outright got for you. Why aren’t you getting the things that you want? Please tell me this isn’t some carryover from all those years living, or well, being trapped really, in a palace and not thinking that things can be the way you want them. You once told me you were allowed to feel things, and I know that took you quite some time to realize it was the truth in all situations, but do you realize you are allowed to want and to own things you like for yourself as well.”
“Of course, I know I can own things. I have more books than most of the people we know, and you’ve told me yourself what a clothes horse I am, which is still kind of ironic coming from you.” Henry grins, and Alex really wants to kiss those lips, but first, he needs Henry to know this thing.
“Yeah, but Hen, most of those things you came here with, tell me you know that you can get new things and it’s not something that will in any way reflect poorly on you. Sweetheart, I need you to know that you can have everything that you want.”
“Alex, I guess I didn’t realize I was doing that; I’m so used, I guess, to having to go through so many hoops just for the smallest things that I got used to not wanting things for myself, well until you that is.” Henry winks at Alex, and he truly wants to do dirty things to this man, but first, he needs to finish this without getting derailed; it’s important.
“Ok, I can see that being the case, and honestly I feel a bit like a shitty boyfriend, for not noticing this sooner, but we really must remedy this situation, let me help you get the things you want, and then maybe it will be something you can start doing for yourself, baby steps, as my therapist says. Henry, say yes. You deserve it. You deserve to have everything you want, and I want to help you get it.”
“I suppose we can do that. Although if I’m being honest,” Henry slides his hand up Alex’s thigh, “What I really want right now, is you,”
Alex smirks; he’s not over how blatantly horny Henry often is and honestly hopes that never stops, “Well, that can be arranged; you can have me, and then you let me help you order some non-me things that you want.” He tugs Henry to him, pulling him over him as he lies back on the sofa, and captures his lips with his own. They moan almost in sync, and Alex gets lost in the feelings that being with Henry invokes, swearing to make sure he stays more aware of the little things he’s somehow missed. First, though he has a boyfriend that he really wants to ravish him.
