BUT THEN IN THEIR MISREPRESENTATION POLICY THEY SAY YOU CAN'T COLLECT MONEY TO A BANK ACCOUNT THAT'S NOT IN YOUR BUSINESS OR LEGAL NAME. BUT MY LEGAL NAME INCLUDES DICK, WHICH YOU CONSIDER OFFENSIVE.

legends of the dark knight (1989) #125

- guy who has used his body for elite performance from a very very young age, which necessitates his being simultaneously very aware of exactly what his body is doing at any given time and also blithely ignoring all of its pain/danger signals

- guy who used this performance training to do violence to others, also from a very young age, meaning that he has to be very aware of not just his own body but other people's. specifically nonlethal violence adds a whole other layer because it is actually very hard to intentionally not kill someone.

- guy who is also extremely used to being Looked At, in a performance way and in a sexual way, and uses both of those as tools in his arsenal in the field. AND has both aspects used against him interpersonally

- guy who is just constantly having his autonomy undermined, once again both in the field and interpersonally. he is getting whammied like every other issue in NTT and I don't even mean the assault parts

all of these are the SAME GUY. i don't think I could design a character more likely to have a deeply fucked relationship with inhabiting a physical form if I tried! constant humming background awareness of his beautiful body and exactly what it is capable of and all of its limitations and of that body's effect on other people. perpetual knowledge that none of that will matter if the circumstances break bad enough. he will continue to try anyway.
