What's your favorite part of creating characters?
Fucking them up.
My collection grows
Happy holidays, everyone, and thanks to my family and friends for funding my autism!
Well, yea... she doesn't have any bones in her body... she's a puppet
ok but give me one good reason why you wouldn’t date Kermit the frog besides that he is a puppet and a frog
Me: *sees this post*
Internal diolouge: Well, it really depends on how you define a-
External diologue: no, no! It Alfred because fuck you
It's even funnier if you remember that Owen is Barts' half-brother. So not only would Tim br dating his parents murderers son, but he'd also be dating one of his best friends' brothers. XD
You know if Dick had a relationship Tony Zuccos kid:
and Bruce is having relationship with Joe Chills kid:
then if we’re following trends…:
This is why I write him as a murderer that's done with everyone.
You know... to balance it out.
I love (hate) that Bart Allen really could be the walking embodiment of "if I started murdering people there would be none of you left" and he HAS gone down paths where killing is an option and yet some fandom circles insists he's UwU "so sweet baby innocent doesn't know what blood is"
I like the idea of Bart being weirdly tall. Like, not Amazon or Kryptonian tall, just like a tall human while the rest of the speedster are average height or shorter.
I like to think he gets it from his mum :)
If Thad was to ever come back (and was characterised/written correctly), he should join the Outlaws to complete the set of Bat, Kryptonian, Speedster, and Amazon.
It would also be really funny to watch everyone else react to that (especially Bart and Tim)
Autism is developing entire species with full evolution paths, hierarchies, and unique customs for the world from just a single thought that you then expand on.
(I also spent approx 5 hours worldbuilding the other day)
ADHD is developing the plot for an entire book while zoned out and daydreaming and then getting so immersed in it that you spend the next week developing characters, their traits, places, development, twists and turns and just hoping the creativity holds up and you'll get to finish it.
(I spend approx 5 hours making character moodboards today)
I don't know if it's just me, but I always saw what Max was doing as teaching Bart to mask (in the way society teaches autistic people to mask).
While Wally wanted Bart to change, Max just wanted Bart to be able to fit in without criticism.
It's so interesting that Max on multiple occasions confronted Wally about his frustrations with Bart by saying matter of factly "This is who Bart is and this is his inherent nature" as a point of criticism on Wally's approach only to in his own home to try force him to change his very nature and persistently refused to try and understand him.
They make my mind spin like spinach in a salad spinner.
