[ID in ALT] I've made posts before about Talia/Dick co-parenting Damian moments (will never happen but let me dream) and this came to me in a vision. Took me ages to finish for some reason 😭 and then even longer to post
#dc comics#dc#damian wayne#dick grayson#talia al ghul#batfamily#dc robin#nightwing#anyway. yes im a self-indulgent ''dick as damians secret third parent'' truther#like i DO think it's way more complex and nuanced than the schmoopy affectionate fan portrayal of it#they're brothers they're father and son they're partners they're the dynamic duo except only in past tense etc etc#but consider! I'm not immune to schmoopy affection in fanworks. it compells me despite itself#anyway it's technically not that crazy when it comes to dick and damian. they hug! often! at least they did#it's not as big a leap to these types of scenarios#also talia ''somewhat absent for complex reasons on both her and damians part but very loving and loved by her son'' al ghul#you will always be famous to me#son of the demon origin...bwahhh#anyway. someone made a comic kind of like this/like a post i made abt this topic#but way funnier bc dick and talia starting trying to beat each other up#so go look at that as well#anyway. it's been a somewhat difficult few weeks so I'm. desperately trying to take it easy#i got some reading with me (first vol of kevin smiths GA run that i found second hand and jaimes BB run vol 2!)#so we'll see how far i get through those. considering there's demons in my head telling me to re-read things (LET ME OUT!!!)#when i finish GA and BB i do plan on rereading robin 2021. as a treat to myself#it's a run I've really warmed up to as time went on#I'm keeping up w/ the current b&r run even though it is. admittedly very slow w/ some weird dialogue#i read it for the damian content more than anything. also nikas back so that's neat :]#idk I have a feeling that after absolute power shakes out we might get some more creative team switch ups#so if anyone at dc is interested in taking over the reigns on b&r...that could be very neat#mine

hot take on billford is that the secret third thing is obsession with being seen by someone for the first time in each of their lives
#like actually seen#its been sitting in me#pondering what the third thing felt like#and its like when you think you love something or someone because it completely takes up the space in your brain#and especially when that person or thing can awknowledge your feelings#and thats what they were for each other#on their first meeting they were already finishing eachothers sentences#and i feel like thats when the codependency sunk the first seed#a lonely man in love with knowledge and a lonely eldrich being that has the access to it all#like why would bill lie about the portal if not scared of losing ford#ford is the only dude to reach out to him#who see him as godsent and not a monster#something bill never knew he needed until it was too late#im ripping things apart with my teeth#take my phone away from me#the book of bill#billford#bill cipher#stanford pines#gravity falls#not platonic not romantic but a secret third thing

if the only time you bring up A Secret Third Thing is when someone has suggested generally celebrating or uplifting platonic/queerplatonic fictional relationships in spaces that ordinarily obsess about romantic ones to the exclusion of all else perhaps consider why you’re doing that and also stop.
#gav gab#im tired lmao#‘i think platonic relationships are worthy of celebration too’#‘BUT WHAT IF THE NATURE OF THE RELATIONSHIP DIDNT MATTER IT WAS JUST THE DEVOTION WHAT ABOUT A SECRET THIRD THING!!!’#cant help notice you never do this when romance is being discussed#:)#cant help notice you only bring this up when people want to be specific about enjoying SPECIFICALLY platonic or queerplatonic dynamics#wonder why that is :)#wonder what you actually mean is you want to change nothing about how you prioritize relationships#and also escape any kind of challenge to that#rather than just owning that you don’t fucking care about platonic or queerplatonic dynamics#which is whatever just please be straight up about it#let’s not do this wink wink theatre please#TO BE CLEAR this is not about any time anyone uses the phrase ever#please don’t come at me for that im not saying The Whole Phrase is inherently bad#just that ive noticed some patterns in when people use it and what brings it up

nothing (besides everyone ignoring Orym's deal) has made me angrier than watching Dorian keep up this facade. Dorian Storm has always been a type of mask he's worn. At first he called himself a liar because of it. The happy go lucky bard was a way of escaping for him. He was escaping Brontë so he created Dorian. He didn't believe he was Dorian. Until the Crown Keepers made Dorian real. And for a while, he really believed he was Dorian. That he has this new family and new life and he could be who he truly wanted to be.
And then his brother came back and made his problems Dorian's problems. Until he had to put Brontë back on. Because even if the Crown Keepers + Cyrus called him Dorian, he was Brontë. He had to be who his brother thought he was.
When Cyrus dies, the thread to Brontë had snapped. He was going to see Orym, back to the Bells Hells, back to Dorian Storm. But the foundation of Dorian had shattered. Dorian was created in order to run from his place in life, family, Cyrus. Now he was gone. The Crown Keepers had fallen apart. His friends fell through his fingers and he couldn't do anything to stop it. He was once ready to side with a betrayer god for these people and now they're in the wind.
So Dorian shows back up to Bells Hella and he's completely broken. The foundation of both of his lives has been thoroughly rocked. No brother. No Crown Keepers. The two things that forged Dorian Storm. He wears that mask so fucking well. Because he still wants to believe in it. He said it live on stage that he should "believe his own backstory". The one he made up. The one where he was a bard.
He wants to be Dorian so bad. He spends all his money on Orym, he spins the bottle so he can kiss his friends, he flirts, he blushes and giggles at compliments. Exactly how Dorian would, should.
But he wears the gold of the heir. He has a festering animosity inside his chest. He doesn't sleep. He's thinner than he was. He doesn't sleep. He sicks abominations after their creators. He talks to God's without an ounce of self preservation, daring them to strike him down. He does not acknowledge them as they taunt him.
The god of beauty and magic calls him beautiful and he does not smile.
#silver sending stones#cr spoilers#cr 3 e 107#dorian storm#got carried away in both the post and the tags again#this was supposed to be an add on from those tags yesterday#but i went off the fucking rails so hard im gonna have to make another post#and listen.#i know people are ✨ multifaceted ✨#but i think its interesting to peel apart the layers of dorian storm.#because i do think all of this is just dorian.#like the rest of us he would not be here if not for his family. his brother. the crown keepers. bells hella.#he is informed by the things that happened in the past. none of these identities could have happened on their own#but if we're looking at the arch as a whole#theres the bronte era. the dorian era. and then era where they got very muddy. and the era now.#i dont feel like he's suddenly a secret third person now#but you know how we all look at the past versions of ourselves and wonder how theyd feel about us now?#dorian just has names for them#and because there was a mixing of both his lives i think dorian is having a hard time reconciling into one#he tries very hard to be both himselves#the man contains multitudes for sure#and idk i just keep picturing him as a little bronte. and exu dorian is smiling and singing with him. he tells him all about their friends#and current dorian looking at them. afraid to approach. afraid theyll ask about their future. afraid to tell them.#but theyd probably figure it out. hes wearing gold after all.

i literally cannot stop thinking about wang baoxiang... the struggler of all time. love when the minister asks him if he has hobbies and hes like I Paint ♥️ and what he means is that hes obsessively making a poster to call some guy a cuck to destabilise the military power dynamics. girl thats not a hobby!! neither is Ending The World Because of Homophobia. he should be at the club 😭
#its 1 am ive spent the last 24 hours in a hwdtw reread induced frenzy#WHY IS HE LIKE THIS#worlds first gay heterosexual#not bi not queer but a secret third thing#need him to get forcibly integrated into zhumas functional lesbian marriage like a wet cat dropped on the doorstep#like sorry this guy is also here now#there is much wrong with him but im sure ma prefers him to having ouyang in her marriage#i am also deeply sad about him of course#but we cant think of that right now 👍😎#swbts#radiant emperor#hwdtw#he who drowned the world#hwdtw spoilers#wang baoxiang

small brain: the scene where jayce gets it on w mel and the scene where sky asks viktor out and he refuses are paralleled to show that jayce has decided to focus on politics (mel) and neglect his partnership with viktor, while viktor continues to focus on science and experimentation (as well as poiting out viktors growing isolation from those around him).
big brain: the scene where jayce gets it on w mel and the scene where sky asks viktor out and he refuses are paralleled to show that viktor is not interested in women and is gay. and in love with jayce.
#not a jayvik truther or a jayvik hater but a secret third thing (i think viktor absolutely was in love with jayce but it wasnt reciprocated)#jayce said ''youre like a brother to me viktor :)'' and it kickstarted viktors villain arc#arcane#jayvik#jayce talis#wait does viktor have a last name#i googled it and he doesnt seem to have one no. only topsiders get to have surnames and hes a zaunite so he doesnt!!!!!!#i love the details in this show!!!#ive been rewatching it+watching a lot of reactions and analysis on youtube and i cant stop noticing how scenes parallel each other#every scene is a fucking parallel to another one!!! every phrase!!!! im going insane!!! this show is so fucking good!!!!!#i forgot to tag viktor#viktor arcane#i phrased the post as a joke but i truly believe this is part of his character. like an important part that helps drive him over the edge#a bit#idk if its what all the writers and animators intended but its how i see it#im rlly fascinated w viktors character after finding out what hes like in the game im so excited to see what hes gonna be like in s2

me: been a while since i made some fluffy g/t ocs, i should do that
the little mouse who runs in circles in my brain and talks endlessly about g/t: oh no
me: you took the fluff and turned it into a fucked up enemies to devoted lovers dynamic, didn’t you
my little brain mouse: oh yes
#g/t#giant tiny#lately ive been thinking about devotion without love#like being sworn to serve or guard someone who you fucking HAAAAATE#but you both gotta deal with it bc thats whatever that situation is. its such a good character dynamic#now add size to that#does the devoted shrink? leaving them useless in the hands of their now giant charge?#or does the charge shrink? leaving the devoted to care even more tenderly for the person they hate but are still sworn to#or a secret third thing that im gonna do for my new ocs :)#i realized i dont share oc stuff like i need to i need to talk about my ocs more. share my art#so if these ocs become a Thing then expect to see more of me rambling abt them

thinking about pandora again
AUTISM GIRL!! with her big pale unsettling eyes and sallow cheeks and heart-shaped face and knobby knees. she’s like something that would crawl from a lake & drag you to your death in a fable… xeno was her favorite author, and fifteen years older than her, and she was a weirdo student who ran off to marry that old man (scandalous!)
if she had lived i think she would have been the ministry’s most unruly cursebreaker, and she would have quietly filled rosier manor with pilfered artifacts like the villain from an indiana jones movie, and she would have crowsfeet & pale yellow hair to her knees, and bill weasley would have WORSHIPPED her during his internship.
i hate the idea of her in cutesy tiktok clothes. i dislike the idea of her as fashionable? that’s another oddball child from Rosier House… she was brought up in ancient motheaten hand-me-downs from her grandmother & fraying cardigans & muddy nightgowns she dragged on the floor. she dresses like evan (soft fabrics, baggy silhouettes, for comfort) with her tangled hair limp in her face but she has a magpie impulse that he doesn’t— she collects bangles and bottle-caps and bird-skulls and beads to wear all at once…
i associate her with weather-based magic a lot? i think her magic has a lot of whims (works cited: blowing herself up). i see her accidental childhood-magic to have involved the grotesque (reanimating roadkill), yes, but more frequently bringing the outside weather indoors. if it’s storming outside, it rains in the twins’ room as well. pandora has trouble with boundaries (indoors/outdoors, alive/undead, herself/her brother) and blurs them. her magic smells like ozone & singed hair.
#a#i’ve been on a bartydora kick lately… in an unrequited ‘secret third thing’ sort of way#i think they both were half in-love with each other at different times growing up . something verging on a crush.#but it made their friendship … sunnier? brighter? idk how to describe it but it’s real to me#their relationship has everything to do with evan. so im fascinated by the extremely rare little slivers that diverge from him#rosier twins#<- i think my other pandora posts are here so i’m putting this one too
