#with no CONFLICTED FEELINGS???

[mikodrawnnarratives]

there WAS some build up for Honey's betrayal in Supernova. Was it in line with her character before Supernova? HELL NO. Last time her character was accurate imo was when her and Nova were reunited after Nova was imprisoned

and one of the things that makes honey's betrayal feel so weird is that.

this:

and this:

ARE THE SAME PERSON

i.

honey loved nova so much. you could TELL

and Marissa Meyer didn't do NEARLY ENOUGH to make this transition from this

to

It's not like its ENTIRELY out of character, it's mainly the way she's cruel that feels so out of nowhere. She acts so shocked that Nova grew to care for Adrian, when Nova getting closer with Adrian has been the goal the past two books. Did she really never think Nova's allegiances got mixed?

There are pieces that would have made Honey's betrayal feel deserved to me. A further emphasis in the other books that Honey believed everything Nova did with Adrian was an act at least.

The betrayal scene could have worked too if Honey hasn't been written in Supernova to sound so much like. Ingrid.

They just. Aren't the same until this book. If you read her scenes imagining its Ingrid its almost entirely like Ingrid came back.

Y'know what I think would have worked better for a betrayal scene if Honey HAD to betray Nova? Frame the scene with Honey still believing she loves Nova, still cares for her. That all Honey's bee stings are a small punishment and not the near death experience they are, Do a Mother Gothel with this bitch. She believes she knows whats best

But honestly I will always prefer Honey to have never betrayed Nova. Nova can't shoot Adrian. She can't pull the trigger. And the attention turns to Honey, who has to chose between Nova and Ace. At first, after plenty warnings from Honey, its an easy choice. But as Nova tenses, the bees awaiting to sting her

they.. don't

Honey hesitates. Stuck in the same position Nova finds herself in with Adrian. Honey can't hurt Nova. She cares too much for her. With all her affection in the past books, her relief with Nova being okay, its like Nova is one of her own. From what I recall, Honey's motivations are driven by her love of everything bees hornets wasps etc. She has a traumatic backstory connecting her to them and damage to them is damage to her. Nova has become part of her family in a strange way, and she can't bring herself to hurt her

Contrast it with Ingrid and show thats the difference

Then if you still REALLY want Honey to die, Ace kills her. He kills someone a part of his family and its another thing that instigates the reveal that Ace was the one to kill Nova's family, the one who sent the assassin. He doesn't take betrayal well and will snuff it out.

Why Duke Thomas Should Be A Dick Grayson Hater

Dick and Duke is such an underrated and underexplored relationship. Here is my pitch for why Duke should be a Dick Grayson hater.

1. The Rooftop Thing

Reason number one and the start of Duke's grudge should be the rooftop incident in Robin War. Dick, as part of his plan or whatever, leads Duke to a roof and abandons him to the cops.

LOOK AT DICK'S SMUG FACE. Tell me you wouldn't hold a grudge too if this was the FIRST major interaction you had with him?? Duke should use this against him at any possible opportunity.

2. ACAB

From We Are Robin #2. Once Duke finds out Dick used to be a cop, it's OVER for him.

3. Jason and Damian

Duke is quite close with Jason and Damian (in my head, particularly Damian - that's his LITTLE BROTHER). Anyway, these two are obsessed with Dick. You have Jason, with his miles-long brother issues that puts Dick on a pedestal, and you have Damian, who thinks Dick is the best person on Earth who can do no wrong. They would talk Duke's ears off about him. Duke would HATE IT.

4. Robin

This panel from Night of the Monster Men sums up quite nicely the difference in the way Dick and Duke approach vigilantism. Duke is the 'idealised' Robin, whose Robin-ing isn't contingent on Batman; Dick is more or less too tied up in Bruce. I think, because the Robin identity means a lot to Duke, having the original Robin be like this would irk Duke a LOT.

5. Tom Taylor

SPOILERS FOR CURRENT NIGHTWING RUN: in Nightwing #116, Dick gets framed for murder and Babs tells him to reveal he's Nightwing to clear him of suspicion. She says Bruce suggested it, and recounts everyone who agreed:

Hm. Is someone missing here? Oh yeah: DUKE. TT probably just forgot Duke, but where's the fun in that? Instead, if Duke is a Dick Grayson hater, you have the funniest scene imaginable. Everyone gathered in the Batcave, laying down their identities for Dick, and Duke is like 'I don't give a damn. He can rot in jail.' and peaces out.

BONUS points if he does this to get back at Dick for reason number 1.

6. Parallels

Duke's origin deliberately mirrors Bruce's, but that means it mirrors Dick's as well. Duke and Dick parallels go insane: they both had loving families, lost both parents at once, were in the foster system (varyingly for Dick but for the purposes of this post I'm gonna include it), were wards/not adopted by Bruce initially, have a huge reverence for family, have a thing about heights, view Robin as separate from Batman, forged their own identities, etc.

Tell me this page doesn't slap:

Anyway Duke would HATE this too. He'd be so annoyed that the person he has the most in common with is Dick, and that would fuel his Dick Grayson haterism.

Dick, on the other hand, has no hard feelings towards Duke. Duke would be glowering at him from the corner of the room and Dick would meet his gaze and be like 'ah Duke is so cute' and smile back. This would make Duke 10000x angrier.

Anyway that's my ideal Dick and Duke dynamic, feel free to add or modify or disagree with anything!!

Can we all accept that in any arranged marriage situantion Peeta, as a good person, would be the first to say 'we can gave an annulment if you want! We were forced into this and I won't make you stay with me because I know you didn't have a choice..." whenever they were free from the situation that demanded they be married.

And Katniss would instantly react like "You will get rid of me over my dead body."
