      Oh it feels weird to be called lady by someone who looks so young and probably is as young as they look. It definitely makes Natasha’s insides squirm because it makes her feel old even though she’s only 25. She fights back a smug smirk as she arches a brow. His reply makes it clear she’s made her point which is even more amusing when he changes the topic.

  “Only if I know I’ll win.”

— ❛ Here’s one thing you won’t win at,                                             FIGHTING. ❜

And maybe he’s slightly annoyed; because when he decides to whip his fists out, and especially against a girl, it means business. His whole, short life, he’s been taught that violence does help, and even though KILLING is out of the question ( or else Batman’s going to leave him out of missions once more ), a beating never fails to solve problems.

— ❛ But I wouldn’t want to hurt you, so we don’t need to prove that point. ❜

There was one thing-- ONE thing that ticked him off more than being shunned by villains. Damian was well aware of his intellect, and more times than not, he couldn’t resist rubbing it in people’s faces. It wasn’t that he wanted to, but sometimes it was the only way of shutting people up. And so, when NORMAL beings insinuated he was less intelligent than a pile of shit, storms roared and buildings collapsed.

[ ^that’s what people use as an excuse when they’re picking a faceclaim or when they’re whitewashing lmao. They use the ‘not all x people look like x!’ 

Of course, not all arabic people are tan, but they’re not WHITE either. Those who speak arabic and have whiter skin are middle-easterners (and then again, not all have whiter skin, but you get the gist), there is a difference.

Being pale =/= being white. I’m an arab, and my country has both extremely dark to extremely pale, but the skin is kind of yellow-ish, brown, pale. Not ‘white’ pale. So yes, not all arabs are tan, but they’re definitely not white.

It’s like when they used Jake Gyllenhaal in Prince of Persia. Like...if you’re not gonna be accurate anyway, why not just use a poc? Or in Exodus with Joel Edgerton. Or all of the Bible (Jesus, Moses,) movies with all of the white actors.

It’s almost as if...being darker was considered bad. They refused Idris Elba for 007 just because he looked too ‘street’. Idris is like the most elegant man I’ve ever seen wtf.

Then people tell me they’re trying not to follow the stereotype that most ‘non-whites’ are dark, but what’s wrong with that stereotype? 

As for the green eyes...It was more specifically for Damian’s case. Because as I mentioned, all robins got the Wayne blue eyes. But to be honest with you, I’ve seen more arabs with blue & green eyes than anyone else (I, myself, have green eyes).

[ Well, it’s hard to bee 100% accurate with faceclaims because technically, Damian is 1/4 Arabic, 1/4 Chinese and 1/2 Scottish. Personally, I picked Hansol as fc because he has this bratty, arrogant-but-cute look, and that’s how I see Damian, but other than that I’m probably as ethnically wrong as the other roleplayers lol. Of course, it would be cool to see a more arabic looking Damian, because he is tan and has green eyes, so there’s that.

No, he definitely did not like Halloween. He found it STUPID and dressing up was DUMB, and the candy wasn’t even WORTH the miles he’d need to walk.

LIKE and not only will I read through your muse(s)’s about page & rules page, but I’ll reply to one of your open starters or send you a meme if the former’s not available :-)

How FIGHTS boiled his blood. He was very literally created to assassinate, and as much as he pushed his instincts aside, they’d arise in one shot whenever someone threatened him. His fists were shaking in thrill, and nothing could stop him-- the hammer of justice is unisex, as his father would ( most probably ) say.

“I really like the hash brow–” before Yumi can finish her company mandated recommendation, she was cut off by the kid’s rude interjection. Granted, Yumi did have a rambling habit, but they have really been pushing this all day breakfast thing, and she was only doing her job. “Excuse me?” she asked, forcing a smile as she locked her cold, dead eyes with his. She’s not paid enough for this.

— ❛ I said please. ❜ The corner of his lips turned into a small smile, a cute one, because when he tries he actually can look cute, but he was more amused by the fact that she couldn’t do anything to him. Perhaps because she couldn’t quite reach him, though that’s another story. 

It had been a long day, tending to his father’s needs as he was going through his post-wasn’t-able-to-save-someone depression. Damian had to be reminded countless times that being a hero also meant buying food for your father; it wasn’t about kicking people’s asses all the time.
