Idk about you, but it’s very important to me that Cassandra Cain has a scratchy and sore sounding voice paired with an accent that is completely unique.
Like, that girl was homeless and wandering the US for around 9 years! Pairing that with the fact she didn’t use her voice often/at all for the first 17 years of her life then of course her voice will sound weird from the disuse!
TIL The Double Empathy Problem theory suggests social difficulties experienced by autistic people when interacting with non-autistic people are due to reciprocal differences, not an inherent deficiency, most autistic people are able to display good social reciprocity with most other autistic people

Cassandra managed to have both mummy issues and daddy issues, with two separate sets of parents, every issue completely unique and different from the others...
She's really the best
Barda: When will Ted himself…finally show up to the talk? Guy: The final boss. J'onn: You guys know TEDtalks stands for technology, entertainment, and design talks, right? Barda: I will not let Ted hide behind these lies any longer!
And then on the other side of the spectrum it’s just artists finding increasingly unique ways to hide the hands in drawings
nobody warns you that writing makes you obsessed with hands. what are they doing? are they trembling? are they clenched? are they—
Billy, whose parents died from being crushed by rocks in a buried tomb, watching as the wizard is killed by a massive rock falling onto him: oh…
i don’t wanna write a whole fic but i am enjoying repeatedly imagining a scenario where bruce is badly injured and Dick is trying to dote on him, feed him meds, make sure he’s hydrated, keeping an eye on him so he doesn’t run off to go batmanning but bruce is sneaky so Dick comes up with the brilliant idea to handcuff himself to bruce
You don’t know how desperately I need the Justice League to pull up to the Rock of Eternity cause they need the help of the all powerful and all knowing Champion of Magic, only to see a kid playing with toy cars making “vroom!” noises and to face the realisation that this is the person who can control all magic in the world
He’s shy
Can we talk about how Cass refers to herself as "manipulative" in Batgirl #5? Like, it struck me as so weird for a second because in my mind it didn't fit how David had trained her. She was a weapon, not an infiltrator... until I remembered how she killed Faizul.
It wasn't just with her superior skills, David dressed her up as a cute and harmless little girl to get close to her target and Cass is putting that act of manipulation on herself.
One day he just drops out of the sky fast asleep during the Justice League fighting a threat and later that day they have to send out a public statement that “Captain Marvel is not dead, one of his patrons just will sometimes pull his blessing from Marvel so he will sleep”
Billy is not happy about his lack-of-sleep being leaked to the public cause now Fawcett heroes and civilians regularly check in to make sure he’s sleeping.
Thinking about a scenario where, for whatever reason, Atlas has to pull his blessing from Captain Marvel for a little bit and Cap doesn’t know about it until it happens.
Like, he’s at a Justice League meeting, and suddenly he’s so tired and he just falls asleep on the spot.
So the JL hear a giant thud and look over so see Captain Marvel gone limp face down on the table.
And he looks dead. It doesn’t help that he doesn’t need to breathe in his marvel form so he isn’t breathing.
Cue the freak out.
She/HerAutistic, queer, and (according to all the unfinished fics in my docs) an aspiring fanfic author!
