I NEED a Nightwing/Deathstroke/Talia comic

For some reason Dick, Slade, and Talia are forced to work together, maybe they’re all going after the leader of some criminal organization (for Dick because the evil boss man has expanded to Blüdhaven, the boss could be a ex-shadows that’s why Talia after him, and Slade is there because the boss has a hit out on him) and to take him down they need to work together.

This could have so many angles.

One, this is a team-up between three of the most dangerous people on the planet, so you know those fight scenes would be FIRE.

Second, just think about the character dynamics. Slade and Talia being bitter exes that both pretending to be over each other. Dick and Slade need to have the dynamic that they had in early 2000’s Nightwing comics (simultaneously hating and respecting each other while being comfortable enough together to do things like Slade leaving messages in the fogged up mirror while Dick’s taking a shower and Dick not even being phased when he walks into his apartment to find Slade chilling on his couch reading the newspaper)

But the real drama would be between Dick and Talia. They have so much potential, to list just a few:

Damian, they could talk about how Talia regrets the things she did to him and how she really does love him. While Dick could confess that no matter how much he love the kid, he still kinda resents that he had to give up his life and identity to raise a kid that should never have been his responsibility.

Bruce, they could both confess how Bruce has let them down over and over again. Talia could tell Dick about how hurt she was when she realized that Bruce would never love her how she loved him and how jealous she was Dick because she knew that Bruce would always love Dick more. And Dick could tell Talia about despite all love for him Bruce has, that hasn’t stopped Bruce from hurting him over and over again. He could tell allude to Spiral and how Bruce kicked him out of the manor multiple times. He could tell Talia that even though he acts like he’s over it, like none of it bothers him anymore, he’s not. He just pretends he is to keep the peace in his family. They could bound over the lesson that they both learned the hard way, they might be able to trust Bruce with their lives but they will never be able to trust him with their hearts.

Fathers, obviously Dick would unload about Bruce here too, but Talia could make things interesting be talking about Ra’s. Maybe despite how loyal she is to him, she resents never even having a chance at a normal life or Talia might have even been jealous not just of that Bruce loved Dick more but of the type of love that it was, a type that she never really got with a father like Ra’s. And if anyone could understand and sympathize with her it would be Dick Grayson.

Third, there could even be an element of comedy with three very different people being forced together. Dick would obviously have problems with the other two’s morals so working together would be difficult. And Talia and Slade could easily but heads over how Talia is loyal to her cause while Slade is only loyal to whoever pays him the most. So there would be plenty of bickering.

Not to mention how great it would be to remind people that Dick when shit hits the fan, he is probably the scariest person in this little team up. Like I can just imagine a scene where maybe they find a part of the organization that’s trafficking children and Dick just snaps. Talia’s like: “Should we stop him?” and Slade just leans against the wall and is like: “Nah, let him get it out of his system”. Meanwhile there are screams of pain from below while Dick just beats the shit out of them.

And of course there would be a creeping sense of dread for what happens when the mission is over. Throughout the story the characters are all bonding with one another but in the end only one of them can get what they want. Dick wants to bring the guy to justice, Talia wants to bring the guy to the league, and Slade just wants to kill him. So there would be the constant pressure that before the end of the mission they will have to betray one another. No matter how much they may have bonded throughout working together or how much respect they’ve gained for each other.

I need this to be a comic.

So… it has come to my attention that with bidens stance on Israel… hordes of people have decided to just… not vote? Listen, I don’t agree with Biden on this issue, I don’t think that should be all that shocking. But PLEASE VOTE.

Republicans are actively planning the implementation of a literal dictatorship in the event that they win in 2025. It’s called project 2025, it’s a literal manifesto please look into it if you think I’m exaggerating. Republicans are planning what they will do WHEN they win… not if, WHEN.

I understand viscerally hating the idea of voting for Biden but the alternative is terrifying. Do not think for a second that most or even some republicans won’t be voting, at the very least trumps cult will be foaming at the mouth at the poles. This is serious. The only way a voting strike would work is if NO ONE voted and I guarantee you there are people that will vote and the effects will be disastrous.

No one expects you to agree with Biden, obviously he’s in the wrong on this one. It sucks that he’s even a candidate but do you know what sucks worse?

Dictatorship.

What’s worse than a rerun of Biden as president?

The backpedal of legal gay marriage

A nationwide abortion ban

Zero healthcare to trans people

The backpedal of legal interracial marriage

Anti sodomy laws

Jim Crow laws

Criminalization of mental health issues

Criminalization of unions

Literally so much more just look into it please.

Biden is not a good person. I understand that. But please think of the people who will be tortured and die under a project 2025 America.

Close enough, welcome back Hinata and Kageyama

i’ve been loving watching critical role recently if for no other reason than because i get to watch a decent portion of viewers actively falling for cult tactics lmao

a forbes article describes cult tactics as when cult leaders “censor dissenting viewpoints, promote a distorted narrative and use relentless repetition and peer pressure”

ludinus needing to monologue at everyone he meets. cherry picking what information to let people know (ie the orb). showing popular world leaders (gods?) at their absolute worst as a means to win over the vulnerable. creating dissent between cult prospects and the people who they’re close to outside the cult. doesn’t take no for an answer. repeating his points over and over, in whatever context he thinks will be most persuasive. targeting people who’ve lost everything. convincing people that they’re special

matt is a genius.

The unspeakable things I would let the Reynolds twins do to me… they can never be uttered out loud.

@thyrell Unfortunately I can’t reply on this account, so instead I’ll just make another post to clarify my point. All social media platforms are the same. The internet is greed disguised as brain rot. This is argument is the pot to the kettle. If you disagree with my counterpoint, you can just say that. I’m not trying to fight with anyone (much less yourself), I’m simply sharing it on my account and why I disagree with it.

Prompt:

Actor Au!

Where Batman and Co. are the most popular TV series and they’re currently filming Jason’s death.

Only Bruce goes so deep into acting he breaks down for real upon the part where he arrives at the warehouse and digs through the rubble for his child.

I think a lot about how Leo’s rescue could have easily ended in him losing a leg as the portal snaps shut on the Krang still clutching the limb, or, alternatively, only having Leo’s right arm make it out, still held dearly in his brother’s hand as the rest of Leo is left behind. (The latter hits even harder, as it directly parallels his future self in the worst of ways.)

I think a lot about how so many things could have gone wrong during the course of the movie with even a little bit of a change, but it really is harrowing how much of a coin-flip the entirety of the Prison Dimension rescue was.

If anyone has any videos of any enjotaire moments from the 2024 us tour could someone get them to me somehow? I literally will kiss you on the mouth thank you

[atopvisenyashill]

every time someone does “valyrian culture was more egalitarian than andal culture” discourse i point to the fact that jaehaerys invented the doctrine of exceptionalism and was an evil misogynistic menace to every woman he knew, how visenya was not the ruler of their house despite being older, and how the vale which is STEEPED in andal culture & chivalry & the seven regularly has their houses ruled by women in a way that almost no other region outside of dorne has ntm having the ONLY ruling lady of a paramount house INCLUDING VALYRIAN AND FIRST MEN HOUSES and also i start shrieking

It’s so frustrating how much of Piper fanart looks like it could be here

[criticalbeauregard]

i keep saying idgaf and i won’t post more about the episode but that’s a lie

can’t stop thinking about the topic of symbols this episode. ashton asks everyone to add some aspect of fcg to their clothing so they can all be reminded of them when they look at each other. they spend the evening making these symbols, acknowledging that what they carry on their person MATTERS. and then just as quickly, orym walks in with otohan’s blade on his back. and laudna is reminded of her death and the destruction otohan inflicted on them and will be every time she sees it. and then she’s told “it’s just a thing! it doesn’t mean anything! it’s just a sword!”

“It’s a symbol.”
