#oh! and one from talia to dinah saying 'fucked once'

[franollie]

Stephanie to the Batfam is like a longtime family friend that's so intertwined with each of their lives for so long she's not NOT family.Y'know?She met them through dating a male Batkid but ended marrying a female Batkid after years of best friendship with her and she's basically the youngest Batkid's reluctant babysitter that got stuck with him but after some light tustles he sees her as a big sister and she sees him as a little brother and she knows the eldest Batkid well enough to be on good positive terms with them and call eachother friends even if they don't talk nearly as much due to the massive generational difference and she's buds with the middle child on common ground(Duke)and i know you don't like Jason and Stephanie much less like i do so i'll put him in 'weird older Batkid she finds annoying but tolerates because this ain't her relatives' and she's even close to the other big Batfam family friend(Babs)and bonded with the baby of the bunch's middle schooler romance ahh girlfriend(Maps).Bruce ain't Stephanie's dad but she's not NOT Batfam,y'know?????Idk i'm just spitting since it resonates with me as somebody with multiple non-blood family members i grew up with and i am that too others too and a Stephie kinnie so i wanted to share

im at the point where im so far removed from batfanon batfam that i forget that this isn't the generally accepted/agreed upon batfam

it all revolves around cass to me so yeah. steph's 100% part of the batfam

Arrow - S8 E3 - Leap of Faith

Come on now, I'm not even a trained martial artist/assassin or whatever you want to call Oliver or Thea; and even I could tell who was who in this fight. I'd give almost anything to find out that the "league business" Nyssa had to deal with was a bowling league. Fuck you writers, if you honestly think I'm going to accept that Mia would say "frak" instead of fuck.  We've had no indication that she's nearly as nerdy as her mom; and even then, nerds only say that to be cute.

I am fine with them using William as bait.  Anyone here actually have a problem with that?  They only downside is, he makes it out of the trap. As Diggle and Lyla recount their relationship history of getting married, then divorced, then re-married and having JJ, I half expected them to mention how JJ was once Sara, before Barry fucked with the timeline. Which in relative perspective means that at least some percentage of the horrible future we're seeing is Barry's fault.  Fucking Barry. Anyone else still bitter about this whole "Ra's al-Ghul" being a title passed down to different individuals? Did they have to remind us of that bullshit? (Sigh) and they still can't pronounce his name right.

"So the looters just happened to leave behind the one thing we're looking for?" Hey, that's my line. Thea knows there's a difference between being able to read Arabic; and speak Russian, right?  Still, it's impressive; and I sort of wish we'd have gotten to follow her journey the last year or two, but then I remember who the writers are and realize it would have sucked donkey balls.... Come on Ollie, Bruce would have memorize the constellations. Fuck, Oliver, Bruce probably wouldn't have let Talia get the drop on him either..... ....I mean...maybe... he does tend to have a blind spot for certain women; and Talia is one of them, sometimes.... Oh, hey, I've seen this movie; there's a treasure hidden under Mount Rushmoore. Or is it that episode of Deep Space Nine where Worf searches for the lost sword of Kahless? It just occurred to me, what are these lighting sources hanging from the ceiling in these catacombs?  They can't be flame based, the way they're enclosed.  Is there electricity down there? "Hey, they (Connor and his mom) are going to be okay"  Judging by the flashbacks, no, they won't; or at least Connor's parents won't, if Diggle and presumably Lyla end up raising him as their son. I mean, what did you expect would happen when you push someone over during a sword fight, then just stand there? I can't say I'm terribly sad about Zoe dying like that.  I barely remembered who she was when she popped up in the first or second episode; and I couldn't even remember her name.  Her death might have been a little more poignant if Renee had been there instead of Mia. I was just about to mention the fact that we hadn't seen Dinah or Renee the entire episode or the last.  I guess that's what I get for acknowledging their existence.... Can't say I'm surprised the....I don't even know what to call the team from the future....The F Troop?... I'm not surprised they ended up in the past; it had petty much been spoiled through various promotional photos and stuff posted on social media, not to mention the whole proposed

I had kind of started to wonder when and how that would happen; and it's interesting to see them pull the trigger on that sooner rather than later, but this seemed super random and tacked on, especially considering where they were in their future story.  It's almost like a producer came into the writers' room and said, "Oh, hey, so we need to William, Connor and Mia in the present day so they can interact with the main cast." "Okay, when did you want to do that; during one of the Crisis episodes?"  "How about episode 3?" "I'm writing episode 3 right now; Oliver's on the other side of the planet; the characters in the future are in the middle of this whole thing.... I can't just abruptly stop the story and have everyone inexplicably show up int he same place." "Why not?" "Good point.  Let's grab some lunch."
