#sorry. sore spot

first bit of this fucks but then ?? what “implication that he’ll be okay” bitch he’s gonna kill himself

[stillwaterinc]

i have nowhere to put my batman thoughts so they’re going here

jason comes back as the red hood, planning to take out his little replacement or at least hurt him bad enough that he drops the suit and lets robin die but suddenly, a month before his plan is to start, robin disappears. and so does the joker.

what? jason looks, he scours security cameras and internet forums, even weasels his was into the gcpd’s files and…

nothing. there’s nothing.

no bodies reported, joker’s not in arkham or black gate or any other prison, he hasn’t finally been given the death penalty he just. disappeared.

he can’t find anything on robin either, or tim drake, for months until he stumbles upon a nearly perfect patient file in some hospital records.

nearly. it’d be perfect to anyone else but jason, even years later, can recognize bruce and barbara’s finger prints all over it. it’s a cover. a cover for what though? he reads through the file, tim drake’s file, presumably and finds… well.

someone clearly tortured the kid, and with the meds he was being prescribed it got to him. it would’ve gotten to anyone.

jason shudders reading the initial injury report. electric burns, lots of them, are what catches his eye the most but there’s all kinds of stuff. what catches his eye the most though is the lacerations that had to be stitched either side of the kid’s mouth. shit.

he doesn’t get the full picture, not yet, but pieces are starting to come together. the joker has been missing for a while, just a little longer than jason’s replacement has been in the hospital for some violent injuries.

the joker is missing.

tim drake is in the hospital.

something happened, clearly. the joker did something to tim, something awful, something bad enough that the joker disappeared and the kid’s been in the hospital for weeks.

bruce didn’t make it in time, only this time robin wasn’t dead, he’d been broken.

someone had gotten to robin, to tim drake, before jason could, had gotten to him so badly that even after he was released he wasn’t robin anymore.

not because he didn’t want to be, a few bugs here and there in the manor let him know that much, but because bruce wouldn’t let him.

it comes out, in one of these arguments, that time killed the joker. shot him dead. and jason almost wants to congratulate the kid for it, or wants to strangle bruce and ask him how the hell he let robin, who’s just a kid, tim, who’s just a fucking kid, get anywhere near a position where he had the means and desire to fatally shoot the joker.

because that’s it, isn’t it? the reason jason’s like this, doing this, is because of the joker. jason knows how to use guns because of the joker. he’ll never go to college like a normal kid because of the joker. and now tim.

tim wants to be robin, asks for it, begs bruce to let him back out in the suit and jason nearly finds himself agreeing with bruce. the joker’s gone sure but what if someone else tries the same thing? what if someone tries worse? being in the suit’s already gotten tim this much pain, why risk more?

it hits jason, one night, that he stopped being angry at tim a while ago. a long while. he can’t be angry at bruce either, because the joker is dead. there’s no one to enact vengeance for his death on anymore.

anyways most of my posts are about incest please don’t follow me for batman content

the fact that ive seen at least two people apply the "your voice is so attractive can you tell me to kms" thing to isafrin is so funny because if siffrin asked isabeau to degrade them even for sexy reasons he would scream and cry and throw up but if siffrin asked loop theyd be like sure stardust I can call you a useless naive waste of space whenever ^_^

why wont you answer my asks?

i'm sorry, but i can't possibly answer every single ask that comes my way. this is my inbox right now.

every ask i answer is inevitably followed by 3-5 more. i always try to answer the ones that don't require much brain power from me, but there are lots of them that do ask a lot of me, whether that be in terms of writing, brainstorming headcanons, scenarios, checking canon, etc etc.

if i had all the time in the world, i would love to devote serious time to each ask, but the reality is i have a full time life outside of this blog, i'm a mom, and no one pays me to be here. i do this for fun. the moment it starts feeling like an obligation is when i stop answering any asks at all.

at the start of the year i managed to shave my inbox down from 500+ to 150, and i've been trying to keep up, but realistically the only way i can do that is by closing my inbox, which i did do for a time. but i didn't like doing it. my inbox isn't just a place for people to get headcanons and fics from me, it's where i get to connect and chat and get music recs and all sorts of fun things.

i understand being disappointed in not getting an answer. i really do. i feel super guilty all the time for the backlog. but if it's a topic or an idea you really want to get into the fandom bloodstream, make a post about it. tag it. engage and contribute to the fandom at large and start a conversation! the cozy corner is so lovely, i promise.

i don't think you meant malice here, but it IS extremely discouraging and entitled. i'm doing my best.

love wips in which i continue to mentally damage the main character further than they already were in canon

hi can i ask how hostel is xenophobic?

hi. okay, deep breath, Estelle.

before I answer the question, you should know that yes, I've seen this movie several times - but those viewings were all years ago, so I might be misremembering certain plot points. however, my overall impressions were not favourable.

the thing about some Westerners and especially some Americans is that they tend to have this concept of Eastern Europe in their heads as some kind of behind-the-times lawless wasteland where anything could happen to them. now, obviously, the truth is a lot more nuanced, not nearly as dire, and this attitude completely ignores the rich cultural and artistic heritage of the region. the fact that an American guy chose to make a movie about a bunch of American dudes getting tortured for fun in a desolate Eastern European setting already leaves a bad taste in my mouth. and the portrayal of that setting is just! not very positive at all! not with the run-down buildings, not with the major Eastern European characters being totally in on the torture ring scheme, and not with the roaming gangs of feral street children (which veers into very unfortunate anti-Romani territory as well).

but okay, let's say you don't trust my years-old memories on the xenophobic subtext of this movie. in that case, here's a very telling segment from the movie's Wikipedia page.

I don't know, man. seems to me that a bunch of people who were represented by Eli Roth in this movie were very offended by what a caricature he made of them. if your reaction to criticism like that is to start some weird whataboutism on a completely different movie made in a completely different region, and to be like "well, most people here don't even know your country exists, so clearly I'm ahead of the game", well... I just think it's time to reexamine some things. maybe if Eli really wanted to make a movie about ignorant Americans, he shouldn't have gone out of his way to portray that ignorance as entirely justified.

thank you for coming to my TED talk.

WAIT ARE YOU A NINJAGO FAN

I keep up with it! I've written a few fics for it too, though they were all from a while ago so they aren't the best. I used to be more active in the fandom actually, but there were some jerks and I kinda drifted away. Still watch the show though :)
