Me: *choosing Luke's route* Aw, the teddy bear will be a nice chill route to do before I jump into Gil or Silvio's.
Me from the halfway mark through the end of Luke's route:

I need someone that believes in magic to get ahold of Batman again. He is an overly serious man that runs around in an admitted bat suit fighting a gimmick rouge gallery. And he is doing it because he sincerely believes in a better tomorrow and somewhere along the way we have lost the plot. Batman wasn’t created to punish the guilty that is actually completely antithetical to his beliefs he is not the fucking punisher.
Batman just like wonder woman and Superman primarily wants to save people! sure he doesn’t do it in a sunny way but that is still what drives him. Hell he even goes a step further and actually builds a case he’s not just waiting for criminals to commit the crime he is shutting down smuggling and trafficking rings foiling plots he is a detective! For Christs sake it’s what made him so unique and fun as a superhero.
Also His desire to save people is literally what compels him to adopt Dick, Jason, Stephanie. Cass because he wanted to give these kids a chance, to save them in ways 8year old him wasn’t. Someone who just wants to punish the guilty wouldn’t do that, And now they have turned him into a borderline physically and emotionally abusive absentee parent all in the name of making him an edge lord. Where is the heart! Where is the fucking heart in it all! Where are the kids and the bright colors and the zaniness. Let Batman and Gotham be FANTASTICAL! I’m tired of the greys and the browns.
I’m tired of “grounding a story” meaning sucking all the joy and color out if it. Also superhero stories don’t need to be grounded in your fucking abysmal reality they are literally superheroes they exist outside of reality, let them!
A story does not have to be joyless to have depth and it does not have to be nihilist to be compelling.
I am sick and I am tired of it. 😔

Because I am old I have Facebook, and sometimes some interesting memories pop up. Firstly this from 10 years ago
I’d booked to go to NYC in May 2014 with the aim of going to see a taping of The Daily Show, which did ultimately happen (and my icon is a photo from that day).
And secondly this from 9 years ago
And then tomorrow, he is returning. And I still can’t believe I’m typing that out. What a time to be alive

Anyone: *provides a critique*
Me: I'm now going to die from the sheer force of my own unnecessary embarrassment
