Curate, connect, and discover
Duke is my all-time favourite character, and he doesn't get enough love, so I'm going to share some random head cannons I have for our boy.
I love the idea of sensory seeking autistic Duke.
He is canonically a fan of a metal band and I can imagine after a log day of patrol and school him just listening to them full volume. Even with headphones his cousin, Jay, still have to bang on his door sometimes to turn the volume down.
His meta ability would let him visually stimming by causing the light in a room to flash repeatedly. This would also work with him manipulating shadows to make the area dark and light again.
Or he would use his Ghost Vision and pace around a room so the versions of him all burn into one. Duke would also do this during bat family dinners. With so many bats around running all over the manor to help with food or run from each other in importune game of tag. I image the overlapping visual would be immaculate.
Did I give his these head cannons as a form of projecting?
Mostly, yes, but it's my post so I can do what I want./lh
