Bruce Wayne Becoming Nightwing Reminds Me Of Those Mums That Are Like 'im Sooo Skinny, I Can Fit Into

I finally got caught up with the new nightwing

big fan of media thats too homopobic to admit gay people exist yet nontheless operates with a homoerotic subtext so insane that none of the characters’ motivations make sense unless they carnally desire each other

HELLO THIS IS INSANE??? THEY KNOW

Something really personal but here’s the way I ship them.

*after BOTFA, everyone survived AU*

Sorry I’m just, really bad at writing conversations🤦‍♀️. Some of the scripts I borrowed directly from BOTFA. Everything is good up until this point and yes they’re still BFFs and giving me old-married-couple vibe already.

PERSONALLY, I think even as a couple, neither Thorin or Bilbo is the type that is willing to give up their own way of living to live with the other (at least not right now).

Thorin had been forced out of Erebor at a young age and just recovered his long-lost home. There’s a LONG way ahead restoring Erebor and bringing back his people. He will stumble, he will have doubts, he will question himself things like Am I really ready and Will I be a good king… But he won’t turn away, because he is Thorin son of Durin.

For Bilbo, the journey did change him, still he remains a hobbit at heart and values home above gold and glory. He misses the peaceful life and comfort he used to have though he knows it’ll never be the same, because HE is not the same hobbit anymore. He helped the dwarves taking back Erebor, now he longs for his own home.

(All of these are mere personal interpretations😇)

So since Thorin will not live in Shire and Bilbo won’t live in Erebor for their entire life, the most-likely situations I’d imagine are these…

There will be a point where Fili can somewhat take on the responsibilities of ruling Erebor. Thorin might have some kingly vacation (specifically, working on legislations, approving orders and proclamations at night and travel among the day) and visit Shire sometime.

I realized not a lot of ppl talk about the aging problem, so I tried to talk about it🧌. Hobbits have lifespans similar to Men but Dwarves’ are usually 3 times longer if I recall correctly.

Thank you for reading!

This guy?? Again???

Is Clint so “I don’t know why I bite” coded because the closest thing to an apology he ever got out of his older brother was Barney letting Clint hit him under the guise of teaching Clint how to fight, so one of the first things he learned how to do was hurt the people he cares about?

Hmmm I think there were a lot of events in Clint’s life that have lead him to have this “bite first” reaction I think.

First with his alcoholic father. Clint really tried to make his father like him. He tried to be on his best behavior, did all his chores perfect, but his father still took his anger out on him. For a little kid who is maybe like 8-9 years old that’s very confusing.

Barney also lived in that household and I try to remember that he is just as much of a victim as Clint was. So Barney’s reaction to Clint’s fight with his father and his fear of watching Clint get more hurt might have lead him to teach Clint with his fists. It felt more like a fear reaction from Barney like “oh god my father is going to kill my little brother he needs to know how to use his hands. He’s figured out that dad is a piece of shit. It’s clicked and I need to keep him safe somehow”

But multiple trusted adult figures have betrayed and really hurt Clint so I think it’s just sort of built as a defense mechanism. He doesn’t really trust anyone with authority because of this. The Swordsman and Trick Shot like solidified this process for him I think. Later retcons had him shown in foster homes that weren’t great either so I think those probably proved young Clint right as well.

So I don’t think Barney started it really. I think his father started it by beating on his own loved ones and that’s what the boys saw. Clearly they grew and knew this was bad and not normal but I think it puts them on edge and so instead of trusting a hand that reaches out they bite it because they think it’s there to hit them or hurt them considering that’s all they’ve really known.
