Rq who is nika? Had some art tagged daminika cross my dash and I am Intrigued
Nika alias Flatline, a character created by writer Joshua Williamson and artist Gleb Melnikov, was introduced in Robin(2021) run—where Damian Wayne as the fifth Robin running off home attended the Death tournament on Lazarus Island.
Nika is the first opponent Damian faces on the island and she proceeds to take his first life with her signature move— ripping his heart out with her bare hand (no one actually dies, people would have three lives during the tournament on the island).
She is a Russian metahuman girl and a martial arts fighter, with the power to absorb the skills of people who had died in her hands.
Flatline(+Damian) arts from Gleb Melnikov's Twitter(X)
Here's the reading guide/list of her! Made by @/ redhoodtwt on Twitter(X)
Reading order↓ (text ver.)— Mainly appears in Robin(2021), Lazarus planet: Next evolution, and Batman and Robin(2023), with some mentions and cameos in other/different issues
Rebirth- Robin(2021)#1-8, Robin(2021)Annual#1, Robin(2021)#9~11, Deathstroke Ink.#7, Robin(2021)#12

Another Flatline summary and reading list made by @/ batquinz on Twitter(X)

Quick tip for anyone who is new to comics or who is not new to comics, but hasn't put enough effort into reading them yet:
You can NOT be a Cassandra's fan if you haven't read Batgirl (2000) & Batgirl (2009)
You can NOT be a Jason's fan if you haven't read "Batman: Under the Hood" & "Red Hood: Lost Days"
You can NOT be a Damian's fan if you haven't read "Robin: Son of Batman" & "Batman & Robin (2011)"
Not only are all 6 of these books really great reads on their own right that can be enjoyed by all readers, but they also define these 3 characters and reading all of them them is essential for understanding them, so if you haven't already, go read them!
#can you tell that DC released another of their 'essential' reading lists that had not actual essential books in them?#they didn't include any Batgirl books aside from the Burnside one#and they even called it genre defining lol#RHATO is included but not LD#Robin 2021 is included but not R:SoB#and the current Nightwing run by TT is included even though its still on-going (and bad)#cassandra cain#jason todd#Damian Wayne

i never did make an announcement that i am making a weekly kanej authors fic rec... so here it is lol
alternatively, i do have the actual list of fics that is currently being curated, but due to the size (we're talking up to 700-900 fics... don't look at me like that I read a lot lol) this was the better alternative. thank you coven for talking me out of that path. i hope you enjoy :)
#random#will i make the list available?#maybe when i'm done?#like it's stupid long because apparently i've read a lot since 2021 lol#i'm also vetting the fics so i'm like like suggesting anything i havent read at least more than two times#anyways :3

im a sub girl through and through but when im unwell enough about a series, i later do a rewatch in dub and levi's voice in dub is terrible for my wellbeing
#every time he speaks i need to be left in a room w padded walls and my arms restrained#i would BEG for him to read my grocery list#lol the rewatch was months ago but i just wanted to speak my truth now#because after completing the manga in 2021 i was kinda lazy to watch the anime again#so welp here we are#honourable mention to pieck in dub#SHE GOT ME SO DOWN BAD I COSPLAYED AS HER FOR A CON#chitchatting ᵔᴗᵔ

The ‘rules’ for my daily October drawings:
Not inktober, for many reasons, but I miss the vibes of a challenge like this, so we’re trying again using various lists and some personal rules.
- I have four lists I’ve seen to pick prompts from, and I have to use at least two of the four for that day’s piece
- I need to practice one of two styles — either my current painting style, or a comics/manga/anime type style, both are digital.
- These are meant to be relatively quick. If it takes longer than 3 hours, something has gone wrong.
- I can work on them in advance if I have inspiration/motivation/time, so that if I have off days I don’t fall behind.
- No repeat words throughout the month even if they’re on more than one list.
As a note, most will probably be ttrpg OCs, though I might use stuff like Warhammer or Apex if it works with the prompts hsgdjdg who knows what I’ll be fixating on on any given day
Also I’ll still be doing other art too, I just really wanna give this a try
#damn I just saw that one of the lists I picked is from 2021 apparently I can’t read#I wanted to pick only 2024 lists#oh well I’m already using it for day 1 hsgdjdg#it’s a neat list so I’m keeping it

Sometimes I think about how even when I'm trying not to be, I am entirely made of the people I love. I recently reconnected with a close friend I hadn't seen in about three years. Apparently they're into watching video essays now. I'm more of a gaming YouTube person, but to each their own, I've always known this friend to be a touch more academic than me anyway. Fair enough. We find other things to talk about.
It is two months later. My watch later list is entirely filled with video essays. Three years is not enough time to forget how to love somebody. I'm glad of that.
#voidrambles#how to explain. it's like#i don't know when to hug or how hard and direct complements make me uneasy and i just#affection in the way most people know it does not come naturally to me#i do it because it's detectable to other people and it's what they do for me and it makes them happy which makes me happy#which makes me sound quite disingenuous? i think that's the word. with my love#but#the games i play most are ones i saw one friend get very very excited about and i loved them before i even started playing them#i haven't thought twice about deep sea creatures since maybe middle school but i do now,all the time,and bugs too#i get excited when i see one because another of my friends would#in 2021 i made this one specific vanilla milk drink in the microwave dozens of times even though I don't like sweet vanilla that much#it tasted so good to me for the time i was close with the person i got the recipe from#i get excited when i see yellow flowers. yellow is not one of my favourite colours#I write because of all the things I've read and loved I keep a list of books friends speak highly of#I cook my pasta with oil even though it makes the pot harder to wash and i don't know if there's a difference to the taste#because i can't tell it apart from the warmth of someone else's proudly given tip joining my own routine#i don't know how else to say this#I'm running out of examples not because there are no more but because i can't tell them apart from things i am on my own#that used to upset me but i don't think it does anymore#this post stops here. it's late and i have a video essay to watch#i love you

in 2020 and 2021 i came up with Top Ten lists for my favorite kpop songs of the year, and i wrote reviews of each of them, just talking about how they really defined the year for me, what they meant to me and stuff. i didnt do it last year, and i might this year, but tbh i might literally just write about Ditto. it's my number 1 song and i have so, so, so, so much to say about it. i've been preparing for this for 365 days lol. i have things i could say about the other 9 songs that i have picked out, but i might just write about Ditto only
#i have as much to say about Ditto as i did about First in 2021. maybe more. actually definitely more#way more. Ditto is better than First#which may not sound like much of a statement to you reading this lol but for me? that's huge#2023 list

my sister and i managed to finish our months' long endeavour to rank all 103 openings in our anime/donghua playlist, here are my top 30
#i just love making lists and rankings 🫶🏾🫶🏾#although this is more of tier list i guess#values were assigned up to 10 based on opening music + video + subjective vibes associated#very predictable if you talked even once about anime ops with me but it gets more interesting further down i guess#spyair is the clear winner they make very good cheesy anime ops 🫶🏾#surprising might be free op 1 unless you are my spotify wrapped 2021 i just love that whole op#this year the zom 100 op 2nd vers by kana boon was so entertaining to me the song the visuals it's so fun#number 1 easily digimon op 1 in german it was THAT anime op in my age range so many can still sing it word for word 🫶🏾#very self indulgent post if you are still reading this ilu mwahhh

Using this to justify my irrational hold-requesting
#ive done very well in Short Books June!#knocked 4 books off the TBR and read 2 manga#working on book 5#next month is going to be Fuck the TBR List July i guess. which may or may not be a bad thing#i just kinda feel like i want to reread all the books i read in spring of 2021?#like you couldn't pay me to go back in time to then but i did read a bunch of bangers in a row and i want to reread all of em now lol#also i just discovered bookoutlet has some of them...and my birthday is coming up...#anyway reminding myself that i can always send books back unread if too many come out at once 😌 libraries are the best

Sometime I just wanna take every manga on my list and just reread it
#a bit of an oversemplification#but there are literally certain mangas I read in 2021 on which I'm sure I'd have a wildly different opinion on#or a similar but more well formed opinion#so seeing this “offending mangas” in my list just kinda iffs me#like I know I'd think different things but until I find time to reread I have to look at whathever 2021 me thought

tagged by @totchipanda thank you sooo much (pls enjoy the last lila update!)
top 3 ships: tenrose, kanej, diego and lila... as of now, but these have been pretty consistent for a while now.
first ever ship: jason and kimberly, mmpr :D i said what i said.
last song: ocean avenue by yellowcard... don’t judge me this song still holds up... kind of.
currently reading: i’m currrently inbetween a “few” books. (1) the roommate by rosie danan (almost done); (2) angels’ blood by nalini singh (i actually dnf this book originally and i’m retrying it again... it looks like i might not finish again); (3) a great and terrible beauty by libba bray (reread, trying to figure out why i liked it so much when i first read it; almost done); (4) book of just (#3 bohemian gospel trilogy) by dana chamblee carpenter (just kind of started); and (5) ross poldark by winston graham (it’s fine but also a little dull, I wanted to read it before i started the show but I also acknowledge that it’s very slow for me)... i start and stop books a lot. i do tend to give books a lot of chances to get better if it takes me awhile to get into which is why my reading pile is always so high. i also read a lot of fanfics when i don’t want to get invested in new characters/situations, aside from a few familiar characters... it sometimes helps. i have these moments where i need new characters! and then I get disappointed by the new characters lol i’m the problem.
last movie: i don’t watch a lot of movies these days BUT i did watch how the grinch stole christmas for xmas with my fam
currently consuming: candy that my next door neighbor brought me, she does this for holiday season
currently watching: rewatched iwtv and it is very multi-layer and excellent commentary on race and racism... and religious zealots. but also gay vampires and my murder daughter, claudia. i also watch a lot of yt essayist/reaction/recap idk what they’re called these days lol
currently craving: to have an utterly boring next year lol like that’s it that’s the bar. i don’t want quiet per se but something very close to that.
tagging (no pressure): @willsilvertongue @enidsinclaiir @petersthree @kendalroys @marvinetta
#random#myra irl#tagged by...#i feel like i need to defend why i start and stop so many books lol#but also my brain this year was in a really bad headspace and ergo why i tried different things#the only constant was kanej fics#which if you've been following me for awhile will realize that i can be critical to a point#it's because these are the stories i have been mostly consuming so i tend to notice patterns and themes of each writer#and i didn't do it intentionally either lol i just did it because i wasn't reading anything else#my goal for 2023 is literally the same as my goal for 2021 which was to finish a large chunk of my reading list#also i hope i haven't been only critical but also kind to fic writers i know how hard you all work :)

New Ryomina fic, Lizz!!
THREE WEEKS LATE TO THIS ASK BUT THANK U ANON!! honestly when i got this inbox i was like. tearing up. im like. "oh my god. people still think of me when they see ryomina. thank you so much. that means a lot to me. im so glad people want to share the joy of ryomina with me."
i assume that this is probably about "i alone await you," since the ask came around that time (two people possibly notifying me about this! crazy! this is positive. do not take that the wrong way), and i want to say that i've read it and am going to be insufferable about it for the forseeable future.
and if it is not about that fic than oops. give me clown makeup. i will happily put that on (my true form is that of a clown). i hope to read some more ryominas, it's been awhile since i've sat down to read the tag and. god. did you know? im so normal about them. anyways, thank you anon! 💛💙
#lizzy askbox#I STILL REMEMBER BEING LIKE 'OH MY GOD TWO PEOPLE WANTED TO LET ME KNOW ABOUT THIS FIC'#AND GOING. 'OMG. I LOVE YOU PEOPLE.'#AND THEN I PROCEED TO TAKE AWHILE TO READ IT BC LIFE IS BUSY.#BUT GOD. THANK U ANON. sorry for all the caps. i just get excited very easily#unrelated but related. does anyone remember when i had like. ao3 bookmarks.#i say 'had' as if they all disappeared (they didn't) but. mm. i'd def love 2 go looking at fic again#there's definitely a lot of good stuff out there that i haven't seen just bc they might not be in tags that i frequent#but god!! i am so excited to read again!!!#i've mostly been preoccupied with reading nonfiction from the library but lately ive been wanting a fic itch#so maybe one of these days i will compile a list of fics i like. as a throwback to 2021. but also 2 celebrate these wonderful authors#thank you again for thinking of me whenever it comes to ryomina the english language is not enough for me to say how much i like these two#and it continues to bring me joy seeing people posting about them and falling in love with them and appreciating their dynamic#because what is fandom if not to celebrate the things that you love with other people and cry collectively? anyway. im normal (lie)
