𝐓𝐖𝐎  -  𝐅𝐀𝐂𝐄  ;      ‘  y’were  dreamin’.’  The  familiar  look  in  their  eyes  lacks  HARVEY’s  soft  watery  gaze  ,  voice  too  hoarse.  ‘  go  back  to  sleep.’  Far  be  it  from  TWO-FACE  to  hesitate  in  anything  but  a  hand  comes  to  run  through  her  hair  briefly  before  he  pulls  away  .   ﹐   @halfdent.
Tumblr media
             Had  they  been  awake  ,  they  would  have  seen  the  𝐒𝐈𝐆𝐍𝐒  that  they  were  safe.   They  would  have  seen  the  signs  of  𝐇𝐎𝐌𝐄  surrounding  them.   But  instead  ,  stuck  in  their  own  nightmares  …  They  weren't  in  Gotham.   They  weren't  with  them.   Trapped  in  their  head  ,  all  they  could  see  was  that  base.
❛❛  Keep  going  Anya!  Again!  ❜❜
             Sharp  commands  rung  through  the  room  ,  echoing  like  it  was  coming  from  someone  𝐔𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐑𝐖𝐀𝐓𝐄𝐑.   When  eyes  shifted  to  focus  on  the  other  asset  in  the  center  of  the  ring  with  her  …  It  wasn't  just  another  asset.   It  was  𝐉𝐀𝐌𝐈𝐄.
             A  scenario  they  had  been  forced  into  time  &  time  again.   Project  Legacy  couldn't  𝐓𝐎𝐋𝐄𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐄  decent.   Defection  couldn't  be  tolerated.   A  lesson  needed  to  be  taught.   One  that  would  work  for  Anya  at  least  for  a  very  long  time.   Twin  eyes  looked  up  from  a  battered  face.   Blood  covering  any  other  features  that  might  reveal  the  identity  of  the  child  cowering  at  her  feet.
             Hands  𝐐𝐔𝐈𝐕𝐄𝐑.   Shaking  at  their  sides  until  they  chance  to  look  away  from  their  brother  ,  the  other  half  of  them  ,  &  instead  looking  to  bloody  hands  ,  only  for  them  to  turn  into  a  fist.   It's  hard  to  see.   Hard  to  𝐀𝐂𝐂𝐄𝐏𝐓  even  though  they  know  how  this  plays  out.   They  know  how  this  ends.   They've  been  here  before  …  Many  times.   Hesitation  kicks  in  …  Her  head  shaking  at  him  when  he  begs  her  to  do  as  they  ask.   Tears  that  had  been  held  in  her  heterochromatic  hues  since  they  started  this.
❛❛  I  said  NOW  Asset.   Attack!  ❜❜
             There's  a  stabbing  feeling  in  their  head.   Like  a  𝐍𝐄𝐄𝐃𝐋𝐄  being  driven  into  their  temple.   It  hurts  ,  enough  to  knock  their  focus  from  the  defiance  ,  head  shaking  with  the  sharp  headache  now  clouding  their  senses.   It  didn't  matter  now.   Gone  were  the  days  where  a  Soldier  would  come  to  rescue  the  lost  children.   The  Soldier  was  gone  ,  it  was  all  over.   That  switch  𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐊𝐒  though.   Doing  exactly  as  intended  ,  blocking  everything  except  the  main  directive.   Attack  the  other  asset.   Angry  eyes  stalking  toward  the  badly  beaten  teen  …  Before  eyes  open.
             Eyes  open  ,  &  the  room  they  had  just  been  in  was  𝐆𝐎𝐍𝐄.   The  cold  ,  gym  like  room  traded  for  the  space  she  called  home  now.   It  wasn't  the  building  that  made  it  home  …  It  was  them.   Cold  didn't  feel  cold  when  they  were  with  them.   Not  like  it  used  to.   It's  not  the  𝐅𝐈𝐑𝐒𝐓  nightmare  they've  had  since  meeting  Harvey.   He  was  always  there.   Ready  to  𝐇𝐎𝐋𝐃  &  𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐓.   Ready  to  protect  against  the  demons  of  their  past  coming  back  to  remind  them  of  their  wrong  doings.
             Except  this  time  …  It's  not  Harvey.   In  the  dark  ,  it  could  be  hard  to  tell.   Often  times  they  have  to  rely  on  𝐂𝐋𝐔𝐄𝐒  ,  little  tells  at  who  has  the  driver's  seat  in  any  given  moment.   Sounds  are  the  main  clue  though.   Micro  expressions  being  something  you  have  to  read  just  to  know  who  you're  talking  to.   Harvey's  called  her  an  enigma  before  …  But  he  &  Two  bring  a  whole  new  meaning  to  the  word.   It's  beautiful.   That  𝐆𝐑𝐎𝐖𝐋  ,  small  &  soft  ,  but  present  …  Tells  them  all  they  need  to  know  who  it  is.
Tumblr media
             Shoulder's  tense.   Waiting  for  some  sort  of  comment  that  will  𝐔𝐍𝐃𝐎𝐔𝐁𝐓𝐄𝐃𝐋𝐘  pull  Harvey  to  come  to  their  defense.   Something  about  being  𝐍𝐈𝐂𝐄𝐑  ,  but  instead  there  are  few  words  ,  as  gentle  as  they've  ever  felt  the  alter  ,  combing  a  hand  through  disheveled  brown  locks.   A  hand  reaches  up  ,  feeling  his  hand  𝐑𝐄𝐓𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐆.   Not  yet  ,  she  still  needs  that.   A  weathered  hand  grabs  for  his  ,  a  bit  of  insistence  in  the  pressure  used  to  squeeze  his  ,  but  all  she  can  do  is  shake  her  head  while  tears  attempt  to  fall  unseen  under  cover  of  darkness.    ❛❛  𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝𝐧'𝐭  𝐜𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐞  𝐦𝐲  𝐞𝐲𝐞𝐬  𝐢𝐟  𝐈  𝐖𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐃  𝐭𝐨.  ❜❜    No  surprise  there.   If  he  had  a  peak  into  her  mind  he'd  understand.    ❛❛  𝐈'𝐦  𝐬𝐨𝐫𝐫𝐲  𝐈  𝐰𝐨𝐤𝐞  𝐲𝐨𝐮.  ❜❜

The real reason everyone makes fun of Dicks Discowing outfit is because he's the only one that can somehow pull it off
Every superhero and vigilante has has a costume like that at some point, something daring or a bit ridiculous that in hindsight that they just couldn't make work for whatever reason. Nightwing? The pretty motherfucker not only made it work, he slayed in that outfit. It looks ridiculous by itself on display in the batcave but not when Nightwing puts it on
The only reason Dick doesn't know this is because all his siblings have collectively gaslit him into thinking that it's his worst costume to date.

we need to keep emphasizing the dread of being hunted in Batman movies/media. the sound of the batmobile’s engine screaming in The Batman (2022) made my entire theater freeze in their seats. Batman Begins had the dock scene where Batman comes out of nowhere to answer a terrified goon’s “Where are you??” with a simple whispered “Here.” BVS had the wall-busting scene AND the part in the basement where Batman was perched up on the wall hiding from sight like his namesake.
they’re all one-off moments but should truly be extended a little bit. remind the audience how terrifying it is to be the focus of the Bat’s attention. the horrifying inevitability of being hunted down by him, knowing there is no escape. but not being able to see or even hear him unless he wants you to.

             This  woman  seemed  ,  𝐔𝐍𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐆𝐄𝐃  at  best.   But  someone  who  could  really  focus  when  she  needed  to.   That  was  where  they  were  going  to  focus  their  attention  on.   That  was  what  was  going  to  make  them  ultimately  agree  on  the  temporary  team  up  to  get  the  𝐅𝐔𝐂𝐊  out  of  there.   The  idea  of  any  friendships  forming  was  never  something  on  their  mind.   It  was  always  just  …  easier  ,  to  be  the  loner.
             As  insane  as  this  woman  was  ,  the  plan  𝐖𝐀𝐒𝐍'𝐓.   The  plan  ,  if  everything  went  off  the  way  they  wanted  …  Might  actually  work.   The  catch  was  going  to  be  making  sure  that  the  plan  worked.   All  it  would  take  is  one  of  the  other  inmates  throwing  a  wrench  in  the  plan  ,  or  one  of  the  guards  or  orderlies  catching  on.   They  needed  to  be  clever  about  this  ,  &  also  make  sure  they  waited  for  the  𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐅𝐄𝐂𝐓  moment  to  act.   Part  of  the  hard  part  of  breaking  out  of  any  institution  was  the  waiting  game.
Tumblr media
             Eyes  shifted  over  to  where  the  orderlies  tasked  with  watchin  them  were  stationed.   One  of  them  looking  𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐈𝐑  way  ,  causing  Anya  to  make  sure  to  take  detailed  account  of  his  face.   If  he  didn't  go  &  blab  about  it  to  his  superiors  …  He  was  probably  going  to  be  one  who  was  dumb  enough  to  come  between  them  ,  &  their  freedom.
             ❛❛  𝐃𝐞𝐚𝐥.  ❜❜     They  𝐓𝐇𝐎𝐔𝐆𝐇𝐓  about  reaching  to  shake  Harley's  hand.   But  thought  better  after  catching  that  look  from  the  man  across  the  room.   Shaking  her  hand  would  tell  them  some  sort  of  𝐃𝐄𝐀𝐋  took  place.   That  would  only  raise  more  suspicion.    ❛❛  𝐖𝐞  𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝  𝐰𝐚𝐢𝐭  𝐟𝐨𝐫  𝐭𝐡𝐞  𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭  𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞  𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡  …  𝐒𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠  𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐬  𝐦𝐞  𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲'𝐫𝐞  𝐠𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐚  𝐛𝐞  𝐰𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠  𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐫𝐚  𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐝  𝐭𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭.  ❜❜

Harley let out a low, wicked laugh, eyes flicking over the room with a sparkle of excitement. “Oh, babe, you better believe it’s gonna be a madhouse! The minute security drops, it’ll be every loon for themselves, runnin' wild through Arkham like kids on a sugar high! Absolute chaos—just how I like it!”
She shrugged with a playful smirk. “Good luck to 'em all, yeah. ‘Course, it means we’ll have to dodge a few folks who think they can jump on our tail, but that’s where my special lil’ stash comes in.” She gave a sly wink, tapping her hip where her hidden tools would come into play. “A couple smoke bombs, maybe a few other tricks up my sleeve... you know, just to clear our path in the commotion.”
Harley grinned wider, her voice dropping conspiratorially. “So when the lights go out and all hell breaks loose, we slip through the mess while the guards are chasin' everyone else. Let the others keep ‘em busy while we take the straight shot out. Pure an’ simple! You get that arm back, I get the last laugh, and by the time they realize, we’re long gone.”
She reached across the table, offering a gloved hand to Anya, her eyes gleaming. “So, partner—ya ready to shake on it?”

Tim doesn't think the new kid knows how. . . . sad he looks.
His long hair is limp and he's always brushing it over his eyes like it's a nervous tic. On the rare occasion they're visible, the blue color is entirely too watery and dark circles too pronounced to ignore. They're guaranteed to make you feel like you're watching a SPCA commercial complete with the "in the arms of an angel" soundtrack. It's even more unfair when Steph says the new kid gives him a run for his money.
"I don't look like that."
Steph scoffs, "Yes, you do. Just more unhinged than pathetic wet cat."
Tim decides either the new kid needs to get better or he needs to give up coffee and one of those things is not happening.
i.e. Danny is on the run from his parents and the GIW after his friends and sister were caught in the crossfire. After being on the run for a couple years, he decides it's safe enough to stop in Gotham to finish his schooling (under a fake name). He didn't count on being forcefully absorbed into a new friend group (something he very much tries to resist). It doesn't help that Gotham's rancid ectoplasm makes his temper flare when they get too pushy.

𝙲𝙰𝚂𝙿𝙸𝙰𝙽  said.      ❛  can  we  talk  about  this?  please?  ❜
Was  there  really  𝐌𝐔𝐂𝐇  to  discuss?   Sure  it  wasn't  the  path  most  would  hope  for  ,  but  most  hadn't  been  failed  by  the  whole  𝐅𝐔𝐂𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆  world  before  they  even  reached  their  thirties.   In  all  honesty  ,  everyone  was  lucky  Anya  hadn't  decided  to  go  𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐏𝐋𝐄𝐓𝐄𝐋𝐘  𝐏𝐎𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐋.   What  was  a  little  chaos  here  and  there  when  they  got  bored?   This  wasn't  even  their  usual  MO  either.   Trading  in  acts  of  chaos  for  one  secret  city?   Pretty  good  trade  off.

Because while the truncheon may be used in lieu of conversation, words will always retain their power. Words offer the means to meaning, and for those who will listen, the enunciation of truth.
