Conner Kent layout from Action Comics #1051

[suzukiblu]

Congrats it's a metaweapon!

“I’m leaving,” Match says. He’ll figure out the cell issue. They put the lab’s layout in his uploads; he’ll just find a guard in the containment wing to identify the specific cell he’s been assigned to. Or is going to be assigned to; whichever. “Stop inconveniencing the directors and let the guards scrap you.” 

“I am absolutely not gonna do that,” Superboy says, shooting him a glare. “And you’re not gonna do that.” 

“You are in no way capable of actually stopping me,” Match retorts dubiously, because again, he’s the upgrade, and Superboy is the obsolete model. Superboy just scowls mulishly.

[incorrectbatfam]

Can Bruce read his gremlins a bedtime story?

Once upon a time—

Ugh, no. Go back and try again.

Jason, let the man read.

Not when it sounds like that. It's Sleeping Beauty. A fucking five-year-old can do it.

Alright, starting over. Once upon a time, there lived a princess in a castle.

Where else would she live?

I get what you're saying. Where was I? Right. When she was born—

Can we go back for a second? What kind of castle are we talking about?

Not again.

A good story has detail, Cass. Now give me the layout. Is it more mid-century or a little earlier? What fortifications do they have? Do the floor plans allow for guards to covertly sneak around? Are they prioritizing enemy intimidation or civilian—

Mid-to-late-century, reinforced walls with hidden cannons and watchtowers, they have underground tunnels, and civilian trust because their only enemy is Maleficent. As I was saying—

What's their contingency plan?

Tim!

The story is the contingency plan, you wet sack of hamburger meat.

Wow, spoiler alert.

Someone called?

I thought you went home?

And miss this trainwreck? As if. Too bad Tumblr doesn't have more colors because Duke would love this.

Huh?

It's a fourth wall thing. Don't worry, I've been working on my impression of him.

Let's see it.

Please don't.

"My name is Duke. I cry at Lord of the Rings."

In his defense, Frodo and Sam have a beautiful friendship.

Back to the story. When she was born, her parents threw a grand jubilee where all the kingdom and its fairies was invited. The fairies all arrived with presents—

You think they would have a baby shower before the baby is born, right? What, the first few days they're just going without diapers?

This was the Middle Ages. They believed in leeching the humors out for a common cold.

Also, you can throw showers after the kid arrives. Our own dad did it.

At least you weren't the guinea pig. Try explaining to a bunch of important rich people who brought gifts that actually, there is no baby, it's me and I don't need diapers or footie pajamas.

Says the guy wearing a Kid Flash onesie.

Says the one in a Superboy shirt and conspiracy theory pants. Pick a side.

I have two hands and I'm not ashamed.

Okay, there's a lot to unpack there—

Jason married Roy!

What?!?

It's for tax benefits. Not all of us can own a multi-billion-dollar corporation.

Your name's on the will.

Yeah but I'm never gonna get it 'cause Bruce isn't gonna die long enough for me to use it.

What do you mean?

He's talking about the retcons. You should ask Duke, he can see into other dimensions.

Ooh.

Ahem, I believe Father was telling us a story. I speed-read it so I know they all die at the end, but I'd like to hear your delivery.

Damian, you're reading this morning's obituaries.

Same thing.

Truelove'skissbrokethespellandtheylivedhappilyeveraftertheend. Terrible job everyone, now lights out.

Aqualad: most underrated Young Justice story

Just wanted to kind of layout how interesting his story was as I feel of the OG team his reserved personality makes him not stand out over the rest and some only thought he was interesting when playing the bad guy in season 2

Aqualad a young adopted kid training to be the next Aquaman with his best friend, and is in love with a girl. But he takes the opportunity to be Aquaman’s sidekick which takes him away from his best friend and crush

Only for him to come back in some months just to find that his best friend got with his crush…

And he has to essentially still save the day and be the hero, come to terms that he lost her due to his “job” while not being upset at them the arguably two closest people in his life

Like this is in any other medium is a movie in itself

Add through season 1 he’s the leader of a bunch of interesting personalities and was like the calm big brother of the team

Then in the time skip, his crush joins the team meaning he can finally spend the quality time with his crush he had to sacrifice before, and it’s a bit unclear if they ever got together during this time but on the mission she dies on your watch…

Not much time later you find out that your mentor/King’s enemy is your biological father so dealing with all these emotions is again it’s own movie itself

Not even going to go into the whole double agent thing in season 2 that people already like

But then one of your best friends Wally dies and you’re thrusted back into the job as your other best friend grieves his own way leaving mostly on your own

Then in season 3 he does it he becomes Aquaman he’s another leader of the Justice league everything is going seemingly fine

But does fall too deep with the secrets again…

And between seasons 3&4 he finds a new love

But all this time his first issue keeps coming back of balancing work and life which is how he lost Tula before and how he perceives to have lost Superboy until later revealed he’s fine

Idk I think Kaldur has the sneakily best story through the show in total

Characters like Nightwing adjust with each season more to fit that season's story than something overarching, and Miss Martian will always have her identity problems and so on but I feel the others weren’t as detailed as Kaldur I feel

I’m just saying you could easily make an amazing movie animated or real life about Kaldur the secret son of a villain learning under a hero and on the way has to juggle the problem of hero and villain and work and life and love or duty

You would literally just need to adjust his hero name tbh as I don’t think general audience will wanna watch a movie called Aqualad tbf

Like Garth got the Tempest alternative when he’s not Aqualad either swap that as Garth is still kinda seen more as Aqualad due to comic history and teen titans or just give him a new name as a character like Tim Drake will probably always be Robin primarily but he still has a couple of alternate names he can go by

Random but I kinda of like Tide, from Tidal Wave or Rising Tides or a play on his comic counterpart Jackson Hyde

And for visuals Kaldur has the Atlantean magic that Aquaman doesn't have so he can water bend for a more interesting power set as Aquaman is basically just super strong with no aquatic life around

Plus can generate electricity has weapons etc. giving him a mix of Queen Mera and someone like Robin

Idk I just feel that this version of Aqualad you could make its own version of the story just about him and be well received by a majority

LoSH Appreciation Week Day 1 - Shore Leave

For my Interlac zine A Tale of Two Proties #81, June 2019, I used the layout of the cover to Superboy #206, but reimagined the backup story "Welcome Home, Daughter -- Now Die" as the lead cover story. At that time I was doing black and white zine covers, hence the lack of color.

In my mind, the actual story not only involves Princess Projectra taking some leave to visit her parents on Orando, but also has that nightmare sensibility like the Star Trek episode Shore Leave. A bit of a stretch perhaps, but I'll take it. A pleasant visit home to a medieval planet of castles and knights interrupted by the threat of death, and the dreaded Morgu. What's not to like?

YJ bedroom comparisons Part 2: the girls! (Part 1 is here.)

Cassie

As far as I know, she only has one room over the course of her pre-2003 appearances. There's no indication that she and her mom ever move. But the look and layout of her room begins as inconsistent across various artists, and even when a settled design emerges, it continues to change depending on the artist.

The earliest approach to Cassie's room, as drawn by her creator, shows a very small space with lavender walls. There is a bed with a teal and black checkered bedspread and built-in bookshelves, an armoire (in addition to the closet), a desk and chair, and a laundry basket.

The clutter is a mixture of her childhood possession and current interests. She has multiple teddy bears and a Superman plush, board games, books, and a record player and records. There's a glimpse of a computer keyboard on desk, and lots of posters and art and paper on the walls and doors, especially posters of heroes like Wonder Woman and the Flash. The floor is littered with scattered laundry and hangers. This is the bedroom of a typical girl with a normal childhood and a lot of admiration for superheroes, which is accurate.

(Wonder Woman 1987 #113)

Two other early views of her room are inconsistent with this and don't show much. One is painted blue-grey and the other orange. The first gives glimpses of posters and photos; the other shows shelves full of books and boxes (including one helpfully labeled "BOX"), a dresser, and a Little Nemo poster.

(Wonder Woman 1987 #139 and 147)

The next version is yet again completely different but will win out as the prototype of her room's "official" look. It has lavender walls (maybe Cassie was experimenting with painting her room and decided to go back to the earlier color?) and a slanted roof. The bed has pink sheets and a blue bedspread and shelves built into the headboard, and there is a round nightstand with shelves, a desk and chair, and a blue rug.

She's a little older now, and her possessions are starting to reflect more teenage interests alongside her childhood stuff. She has multiple plush toys (including Pikachu, a hippo, and a turtle), books, a wind-up toy, what looks like a VR headset (?), a phone, papers and a pencil, a boombox and a few CDs, schoolbooks, a mug, a bag, scattered clothes and shoes, a computer keyboard on the desk, and an absolute shrine of Superboy posters and photos, plus a poster of a girl band called Spice World (no celebrities were harmed etc.) The "No Dou[bt]" sticker on her headboard might be a reference to the "No Fear" logo, which was everywhere in the late 90s/early 2000s.

(Wonder Woman 1987 #153)

Cassie's room as portrayed in YJ 1998 is clearly intended to be the same as the room above but with some modifications. The roof no longer slants, the walls are pink, and there is pink carpet instead of a hardwood floor. The furniture is the same, although the bedspread is now pink and she has a Flash throw pillow, and there are additions of a bookshelf, a dresser, and a blue plastic blow-up chair (very late 90s/early 2000s! I think one of my sisters had something like it).

Her décor is aggressively Teenage Girl of the Turn of the Millennium. There are posters that directly reference or parody bands and TV shows of that era (Frontstreet Boys, Spice Girls, Wendy the Werewolf Stalker, Dalton's Creek), something that might be anime ("Ja[...] Warrior"), and superheroes (Flash, Green Lantern, Superboy--only one now and it's behind the door rather than prominently displayed).

Cassie is just as messy as the boys! Items visible include a jar of gumballs, books (including one with "MST3K" on the spine), a pen, a snow globe, a framed photo of her and Cissie, a lamp, comics (Flash and others), a figurine (Pokemon?), an alarm clock, a candle(?), a soda can and chip bag, scattered clothes, a boombox and CDs, a phone, a magazine called Mega Teen, multiple plush toys (including a blue Pikachu, some kind of antennaed alien, and Superman), a duffle bag, a basketball, action figures, a TV, a piggy bank, a framed photo of Diana, a trash can, a bulletin board, a computer at her desk, and sticky notes nearby reminding her to call Cissie and tape MST3K and read certain pages for science.

(Young Justice 1998 #16)

(Young Justice 1998 #19)

A different artist during the Sins of Youth arc depicts the same room but with colors changed yet again: lavender walls and blue carpet with a brown bedspread. There are many of the same items as above but with additions including a horse poster, Titanic posters, potted plants, an astronaut action figure (Buzz Lightyear?), and even more plush toys including a tiger and a cat and a rabbit.

Here, an aged-up Cassie laments how stereotypically youthful her room is, and it's an accurate assessment (although nothing for her to be ashamed of--she is a teenage girl, why shouldn't her room reflect that?). Out of all her team, she has led the most normal, stable life, with a complete childhood, and her room attests to this.

(Sins of Youth: Wonder Girls #1)

Cissie

The earliest room we see for her is her dorm room at the Saint Elias School for Girls, where she lives for the entirety of the YJ 1998 run. At this point, Cissie is still using the frilly costume that her mother provided her, and her room similarly is aggressively girly, especially for a dorm. It has pink walls with a floral border and pink bedding. There's also a desk and bookcase.

Cissie's belongings reflect her archery career and her connections to superheroes. On her wall are a poster of Superman, photos, and a bulletin board. A Batman plush and three teddy bears are her only concessions to childish interests. There's also a lamp, a framed photo of Bonnie King as Miss Arrowette, first-place ribbons and trophies, and books (including such titles as C. E. Letters, Broken Arrow, Shaft, The Life and Works of Ethan Van Sciver, Works (or Words?) of Crybaby, a photo album, Kaniuga: Missing Link, Advanced Archery, JHR's Genius, Kupp's Darkseid, The Biography of Oliver Queen, Robin Hood, William Tell, and Views of L.A. Some of these are references to the names of this issue's writer, penciler/inker, colorist, letterer, and editors!).

(Impulse #41)

Cissie's dorm in YJ 1998 appears to be the same room (now specified as 118), judging by the placement of the furniture and poster, but it is now completely redecorated in a more neutral style that more realistically reflects a dorm room. The walls and bedspread are now blue-gray, and there is crown molding instead of a border. The desk has been moved to the other end of the room. New additions include an alien plush (in place of her earlier stuffed toys), a dresser with mirror, and a computer.

(Young Justice 1998 #20)

By #27, she is rooming with Traya Sutton (Red Tornado's adopted daughter, and they're in Room 356, but we don't get a good look at it until later.

This dorm room has light blue walls and bedspreads, two beds with nightstands and bookshelves, a desk, shelves of boxes, and a window with a window seat between the beds.

Cissie has a bulletin board with something about MST3K pinned to it (a mutual interest with Cassie), a box of filed fan mail, an alarm clock, books, framed photos (an unidentified boy, and her with Cassie), a plush toy, an archery trophy, a 2000 Olympic archery poster, and a Wendy the Werewolf Stalker poster after she guest-stars on that show.

Unlike the other kids, she is tidy in her habits (probably a necessity while living in a dorm where there would be regular room inspections), and her possessions are more overtly grown-up, especially when compared to the much younger Traya's things. Her "fun" items are minimal, she doesn't seem to have many fandoms, and most of her things have to do with her accomplishments.

(Young Justice 1998 #30)

(Young Justice 1998 #33)

Greta

She presumably lives at the YJ headquarters, but if she has a room or any kind of personal space there, we never see it, because no one ever hangs out there.

We do see two of her past living spaces in flashbacks. First, her cell at the DEO. It has light green walls and minimal furnishings: a brown rug, a bed with white bedding, and a table with two chairs (why two? she's in there alone). The DEO has given her a paper and crayons (it looks like she's drawn a tree), a book, and a couple of dolls and their hairbrush, probably in order for them to study how she interacts with these items. There is no décor and no apparent other possessions, and worst of all, the room is windowless with a glass ceiling. She has no privacy at all and cannot leave this room (until she figures out how to escape).

(Young Justice: The Secret #1)

(Impulse #56)

A far cry from Greta's childhood bedroom, which we see as it was when she was very young. It has pink walls and carpet, a bed with a blue bedspread with a pattern of yellow ducks and pink and white striped sheets, and a dresser. She has Barbies and their clothes and accessories with a dollhouse and car, action figures, a hairbrush, a ball, something that looks like an easel, a drawing she made of a rainbow and birds, another doll and a plush toy, a pink and white shoe under the bed, a lamp, a frog clock, and a copy of Alice in Wonderland. Very typical possessions for a little girl. She's the only one of the YJ girls who is seen to have owned dolls (her Barbies even briefly transform into her YJ friends during this flashback).

(Young Justice 1998 #42)

Anita

We get a very brief glimpse of her bedroom at home. Blue walls and carpet, white bed, nightstand, and desk. She has posters of Wendy the Werewolf Stalker (like almost all the other girls!) and someone called "Crisq[...]", a lamp, a glass of water, a small box/container, a plush toy (Martian Manhunter?), a book, a pen, paper, and scattered clothing. Not overly revealing of her interests, but a general impression of a typical teenage girl's room.

(Young Justice 1998 #35)

OK so thoughts.

Re-read Reign of the Supermen, and finished up the Death and Return of Superman Omni, which was in my reading order continuous with all post crisis comics - read all the post 1986 comics before it and had good context now.

The actual death of superman was underwhelming. explained here. according to trivia, the writers and artists wanted to do something where they were like 4 panels per page the 3rd issue before his death, 3 panels the 2nd issue, 2 panels per page the issue before his death, and 1 panel per page, so all splash pages, the issue of his death. Which I can respect wanting to experiment with panel format, but I think if they were doing 1 panel per page the layout of the panels should've been much more creative. can sketch out what i was imaging later.

but anyway the death of fight scenes were the ONLY underwhelming parts. I generally liked everything else and the post-death issues kicked so much ass I felt myself legitimately getting sad. the newstime comic format was creative and great from a worldbuilding perspective. and lois's reaction to superman's death ;_; I think Louise Simonson is one of my favorite Lois writers.

Hank Henshaw's motive felt kind of "eh" to me. Like. He was the guy orchestrating everything but the reason why was very ¯_(ツ)_/¯. Like if you've seen the movie, his rhetoric is similar - he wants to bismirch superman's good name to get revenge on him now that he's dead because he blames superman for his discorporate state and the death of his wife... but in the comics he was 1 of the fantastic 4 expy characters who were exposed to massive radiation and slowly dying, his wife was saved by superman and then she went to a mental hospital b/c its the only thing DC knows to do with female civilian characters who aren't dating superheroes, and she was alive last we saw her? unless they kill her in a side issue. and henshaw voluntarily leaves earth to explore the cosmos in superman's birthing chamber ship.

Eradicator was another character who previously showed up in the run and then later reappeared in Reign of the Supermen. He started out as a weapon created 200,000 years ago on krypton to kill cloning-protestors and then wound up being acquired by superman during the exile in space plotline as an artefact of kryptonian culture that gave him a fancy unbreakable cape, then it was revealed the eradicator was slowly brainwashing him and then wants to terraform earth into new krypton or something and he tosses it into the sun where it reforms and comes back in the guise of a supervillain taht gets beat up and disappears seemingly to death until superman dies and then it reappears as the eradicator that more people are familiar with and helps save superman.

superboy and steel are both new to this plotline so they don't have quite so much pre reign of supermen baggage :P

[ivysangel]

I might do multiples of these bc I have a lot to say lol: yj superboy?? I respect you and your opinion so much…..

Also Edward scissorhands without hair or scissorhands should not have made me laugh as hard as it did😭

HI!!! sorry i didn't respond to this sooner bae. yj superboy was my first young justice crush like goooooooood god he's so fine. him and m'gann were the grumpy bf x sunshine gf to a T. and enemies to lovers on the lowkey AND exes to lovers at one point like they were doing it all. but back to the conversation at hand, smash smash smash.

spent like an hour on this layout bc finding bratz promo pics is actually kinda hard??? but i was HELL bent on having a rock angelz theme bc (and i've talked about this before) it is genuinely my roman empire. obviously none of you guys know me outside of tumblr so ur just gonna have to trust me on this one but i am known amongst my friends for being a 2000s media/fashion doll/pop culture fiend, and bratz movies are like the pinnacle of it for me. plus deep reds are my fave colors, legit the only lipstick shade i wore for like 2 years.

"Honolulu is the capital, babe. I've been wanting to return since I came back. Hawaii took me in and accepted me when nowhere else would. It's a beautiful state and I wanted to take you at some point anyway. I know you'll have a lot of questions, I'll do my best to answer them when we get there." Kon had answered as their lips parted, getting up shortly after Timothy to wriggle into boxer shorts, black torn jeans and a black t-shirt, lacing up his usual combat boots and grabbing his usual jacket to shrug after his shoulders. He packed his lighter and cigarettes into the bag Timothy began packing, as well as a change of boxers. He'd excused himself to the bathroom to take care of the last reminder of the night before, relieving himself shortly after doing so.

When they were both ready, Kon pulled the backpack on before placing his shades on Timothy and then picking him up princess-style. As he flew up into the air, he took the journey slow; tucking his boyfriend carefully against his chest, TK shielding him from the wind, as he soared forward, reaching Honolulu within forty-five minutes of having left. Predictably, Timothy had been lulled to sleep, so as Kon landed on the balcony of his old place in Honolulu telekinetically unlocking the balcony door, and kissing Tim's forehead as he carried him inside. The apartment itself was cramped with a studio layout not unlike Tim's; the kitchen was in front of the bathroom closet, next to the front door, the bed area tucked neatly behind a bookcase, no space for a living area. Kon had never needed one. Spread on the walls were clippings of photographs from the local newspaper, starring Superboy during his earliest adventures. Next to the refrigerator was an old pin-up calendar from 2017; starring topless women. On the kitchen island was an ashtray; still full from when he'd last been here. A series of hand-drawn graffiti marked the walls; mostly song lyrics, the old-school 'S' that seemed to exist almost unilaterally throughout the zeitgeist, some band posters and some old polaroids starring himself, a bubbly white blonde, and a darker-skinned woman with black hair of native island descent. An assortment of old clothes lay around the floor, along with magazines and pornagraphic dvds. Realising Tim was still asleep, Kon laughed fondly and poked him mentally - 'Wake up sleepy, we're here.' "Sorry 'bout the mess. Kinda left here in a hurry." He sat Tim gently down on one of the kitchen counter stools. He didn't even want to think about what the state of the fridge was like. "I might have some old coffee. Or I can go run to get some fresh. But if you wanna talk about any of this, I'd rather we did this here than y'know, at the cemetary." He took off the backpack and leaned against the counter, fingers already fidgeting for a cigarette as he felt nervous. He didn't usually like to smoke when Tim was around - knowing it was bad for human lungs - but just once couldn't do much harm right?

Timothy did just that, all too willing to give in to the void of sleep soon. “You should try to get some sleep too.” his hand shifted, finding that rib cage to pull him even closer, uncaring if their breaths brushed against each other’s skin. It did not take long with the steady breaths for him to fall asleep. 

Regrettably, his sleep was not as peaceful as he had hoped. Nightmares of the cloning process lingered, still working on filtering themselves out but they were not as traumatic, just a repeat of the failures, the frustration, the screaming underground where no one could hear him. Then it faded and something in his brain nudged him back to being conscious. His eyes were slow to open, and when they did, they quickly reclosed as he listened to the sounds around him. Birds were chirping and arguing outside with each other, their voices a stark contrast to the chaos in his mind. His eyes fought to stay open before a finger reached up to wipe out the ‘sand’ of the night from their corners to take away the blur, a small act that brought a momentary sense of clarity. 

They found Kon-El smiling and handing his phone back. “Mornin’” his husky tenor grumbled, wanting more but also not wanting to return after the nightmare lingered. A soft laugh fell from those lips as his words were given back to him. “Yes I did. What a great view to wake up to.” that smile remained as his phone was checked, no missed calls or new messages so it was lowered to the bed face down. The familiar sight of his boyfriend and the peaceful morning outside brought a sense of relief and comfort, a stark contrast to the turmoil of his dreams. 

Until a disoriented idea came.

“What?” That name was lodged into his mind as a groomer to Kon-El so his face twisted into an expression that was less than happy that he wanted to visit her. At current he was still hunting down the other. Before he could say anything to that, Kon-El’s finger was on his face. Then it was removed after a long ramble, cursing Timothy’s head to spin a little. He had just woken up and was barely functioning without coffee to help so this was a lot. 

With the reminder that Kon-El may not have even been asleep yet and had all night to ponder this along, a sigh escaped Timothy’s mouth. “Shit, Kon. That is a lot for you to have been sitting here thinking about alone. I feel like I am missing a lot of information but will attempt to piece it together that you want to go to Hawaii for the whole weekend due to Honolulu?” The phone was pulled back up so he could check his schedule, unaware Kon-El had done so already. Clear. 

Leaning forward as the phone lowered, his lips found Kon-El’s for a gentle, lingered closed-mouth kiss so the man knew he was not saying no. “I’ll come with you. I don’t understand right now, I just woke up and need to process a bit, but I can support you if you need to do this.” Then he was moving to sit up, phone left on the table as he slid from bed, hand to his front covering up the partial hard-on from needing to take a piss while his walk was stiff, those joints attempting to move after being idle and from patrolling the night before. When he got to his dresser for a pair of boxer briefs, he walked normally as muscles adjusted.

The bathroom door was left open as he relieved himself, washed his hands and brushed teeth for the morning. Once he was done, he went to the closest to grab a large backpack, a few outfits, and some healthcare supplies. Their suits were in shreds still on the comforter so he texted Lucius quickly, asking him if he could remake a new suit and possibly an extra over the weekend or week. That meant no patrolling unless he wanted to use his old robin, but it was not ideal. Kon-El moved past him to use the restroom too, leaving Timothy to collect any other items they might need before getting dressed. 

Texts to his family were sent to let them know he would be out of town for the weekend on a vacation, which caused a lot of texts flooding in from those surprised and asking if he was serious. They were ignored as he grabbed his charger and shoved it into the bag. Within an hour he was ready, the backpack placed on Kon-El when he asked for it so Timothy could lock up the apartment. Both made sure no one was around and were out of view before Kon-El grabbed him and went to the air.

"Oh, I see," Tim observes non-committally, trying to figure out if he can move up that six-month timeline somehow. There's got to be some corner he can cut or something he can cheat, if he just–

"Do you wanna hang out for a little while before you leave the island?" Superboy asks hopefully. Tim stares blankly at him for a moment. What kind of question is that? Most people would be upset to find out they'd only have a little while to hang out with a newly-discovered soulmate, but Superboy's asking like he expects him to want to just . . . what, swap cell phone numbers and then go on about their normal plans?

First of all: no. Second of all, Superboy doesn't know it, but this is the damn plan, so still no.

"That sounds cool, yeah," Tim says, applying Smiling Normal Civilian Face #5, which is a little softer. Superboy brightens, inexplicably turning red again. Tim has the even more inexplicable urge to pat his face about it.

This is definitely not a platonic soulmark, no.

Okay, so Tim's . . . gay, he guesses? Bi? Pan? Just–some sexual orientation that includes telekinetic alien hybrids that are at least male-presenting, anyway. That or Superboy is a trans girl and just not out yet, which he supposes is an equally logical option.

. . . probably Tim being at least a little bit gay is likelier, though, because Superboy really is a look in that torn-up skin-tight costume he's barely wearing right now. Though Tim could also be bi and Superboy could be trans; it's not like either of those possibilities precludes the other. Actually, that combination of queer identities would probably work out pretty well, right?

At least, he assumes it would. Tim has admittedly not looked into that kind of thing too much, what with assuming it wasn't ever going to be directly relevant to his life. He infiltrated a GSA-style support group for a month and a half once for Robin-business and that's all he's really got to go on. His cover had been "kid with a newly-out older brother who was seeking basic information", just to minimize any concern about him dropping off the face of the earth after the necessary recon in the center was done, so he hadn't had to know anything even then, really.

Apparently he should've been paying less attention to the layout and staff and more to the actual conversation.

Go figure.
