karanguni: (BATMAN and NIGHTWING)

Oh Tim. Tim. Tim. Tim. (And a viral meme.)

Still in the midst of studying. Batman and family, they are my anti-drug. Spasming below cut. Fic and your usual she-bang will return, BUT NOT RIGHT NOW.

Because, right now? TIM DRAKE IS TOO BUSY KICKING JASON TODD IN THE CROTCH.





I don't doubt his taste:



(Bigger scan here.)

Because all three of them are very, um, capable Robins, I am sure. They have, all of them, worked long and hard to gain Bruce's, uh, approval. (Said approval is also probably why Jason shouldn't be kneeing Dick in the crotch.

Dick's name, it will never stop being funny.)

But I think Dick and Tim do doubt Jason's, y'know. Sanity. After he breaks into a secure facility just so that he can ambush Tim in order to let everyone with a Bat symbol on them know that he's feeling kind of unloved.

Um. Jason. You died. There's a memorial to you in the Batcave. Bruce uses you as an emotional grenade whenever the rest of the family tries anything stupid and/or foolish. Their angst about you? It is big. It is deadly. It eats small children for breakfast. What did you want Bruce to do? Beat the Joker up with a crowbar?

*pats Jason soothingly* Don't worry. We all know it's tough being the middle child. And, looking at who preceeded you (acrobat, sex on legs, blindly devoted and loyal and happy Nightwing) and who succeeded you (detective, insanely clever, critical and complementary), who could blame you?

You still totally deserved that kick in the balls, though. There's hope for you yet, Tim!

Ah, brotherly love.

Meanwhile, I will continue to be amazed at how no one in the superhero community has, uh, made fun of and/or noticed and/or called Bruce out on his somewhat unhealthy obsession with boys who look like that. I mean. Hot damn, the three of them could literally be brothers...

[edit] OH MY GOD. I just bought and read Robin: Year One and JESUS CHRIST my heart is BURNING IN MY CHEST. Bruce. Bruce was so different, but not in a bad way, just in that unimaginable way that has to do with grace, and the way the world robs you of it if you livein it too long, and too hard. AND DICK. JEsjfjflashflahlfJAJFALF I can't even BEGIN TO DESCRIBE asfjaljf oh my god. He went to a public middle school. Willingly. He loves Alfred/Alfie. With all his heart. He looks after Bruce. And uses Bruce's own standards as his own, without qualm and without complaint. And then he gets his face beaten in and his only answer to Bruce's RIDICULOUS WAY OF SHOWING HE CARES? Is an apology.

ALFJALHGALHFLAJFLJFA AL AJFLJFA.

God, I love this fandom. Maybe I should use some of my birthday moolah and buy myself more iconspace. *____* IF ONLY PEOPLE GAVE ME CASH IN INTERNET CREDITS.

Here, have a meme:

1. Answer the questions, using one name from your flist as an answer to each question.
2. Delete the questions, leaving the answers.
3. Give the questions to anyone who does the meme in turn.

Nay, it is not! *g* I can send you the questions, if you'd like!

Is Under the Hood good? I have no idea what's going on with Jason in current continuity -- I mean, fandom loves him to death, and that is always awesome because fandom loves the underdog, but IS HE STILL EVIL, FOR THE BAT-GIVEN VALUE OF EVIL?

Robin: Year One ajfslja smash smash I do so love Dick.

I haven't read Superman/Batman yet, but that sounds kind of TOTALLY ACCURATE.

Send questions plz!

Currently he's faffing about with Donna Troy in Countdown--not the good kind of faffing either. :P Not very clear on what it is exactly they're doing...should check out the copies I have at my bookstore. I just love Under the Hood cos that's where they bring him back, and he's really quite evil. Except when he gets all w00by says, "I just love to watch you work." Mind you, this is after he gives Daddy 3 seconds to get out of a building he's wired to blow. adjshdKJS'LKDJ'f

Most of Superman/Batman is kind of meh, especially Torment (wtfMarySue), but Absolute Power and Best Stories Ever Told and the last two issues are my very favourite.

I too, love Dick. :D Hey, it never gets old.

Crap, gotta go to work now XD Happy birthday again!

Questions, I have sent them!

HAHA OH GOD, JASON. I swear, that guy is both lovable and crazy. I kinda like to think the resurrection made him go a little whacko; that... sorta explains the huge ATTACKS ON FAMILY THEY MAKE ME SMILE. Mostly I love how the rest of them have to deal. 8D 8D

Yeah, definitely the Lazarus Pit homing in on the tendencies that were already there. What [livejournal.com profile] thete1 et al call "Joie-de-Hurt-You". Timmy seems to be dealing with it relatively well XD

Speaking of which, you read her Bruce-Tim-Jason fic, right? Did fanart for it. (http://pics.livejournal.com/pere_chan/pic/0003cbyt)
