"The money is only important because it's important to other people-- a sign of respect via perceived 'worth.' But it means nothing compared to my name."
On the off chance you made your way to this dark little corner of the internet on accident, I'm Deathstroke, mercenary for hire. My loyalty follows my word, and my word follows money. I'll solve any problem for the right price.
I don't know what you'd want with me, but under the mask, I'm Slade Wilson. Divorced father of three living and one deceased, former U.S Army Lieutenant Colonel, currently a for-hire super soldier. You can try to stop me--it won't work.
"I didn't actually expect it to kill him. But I'll be damned if I try something complicated when a bullet to the skull will do the trick."

Mun Info
Hiiii! I'm Jay, I use he/him pronouns, and I'm 18! I think Slade is. A neat little atrocity. I know the DC fandom can have a problem with seeing everything in black and white, but I love characterizations of Slade where he operates more in a grey zone. He's definitely not a good person, but he still has a code. Even if no one can really figure out what it is. Little disclaimer THIS SLADE IS NOT A PEDO. He's manipulative yes, he's a pretty trashy dad, but he is not. A. Predator. I'm going to hit Marv Wolfman for constantly acting out his weird interests in his writing. I post in purple, Slade as Deathstroke posts in orange, and Slade as himself posts in plain text.

Shipping
Shipping is allowed, but if people get weird with it I'm going to disallow it. No Sladick, nothing like that, please and thank you. If you want to do a ship, the mun must be 18 or older, and the character MUST be within Slade's age range.
I don't really have any ships that I like for Slade, but if you know of any, please come to me with them!

Headcanons/Details
-Once again, I would like to reiterate, THIS SLADE IS NOT A PEDO. If you don't like me playing him just don't interact with this blog.
-When he's not on a job, it's not really worth overworking his brain, so Slade has terrible depth perception usually.
-Slade is a crappy dad, and he doesn't really know how to be any better (partly due to the fact that he refuses to accept the idea that he's ever been a victim, so he can't see when his children are victims), but he does love his kids. He's just really, really bad at showing it.
-He likes to pretend he's calm cool and collected but he's actually very easily ragebaited.

A brief clarification for those who continue confusing verbosity with pretension:
Using precise language is not an affectation merely because you personally require a running start to clear three syllables.
Words possess specific meanings. Those meanings allow us to communicate complex ideas without reducing every conversation to grunts, threats, and vague hand gestures. Humanity developed an entire lexicon, and I see no compelling reason to abandon it simply because some of you regard opening a dictionary as an act of intellectual surrender.
βYou only use big words to sound smart.β No. I use the correct words because I am smart. You interpret that as performance because your own intelligence apparently requires one.
Furthermore, brevity is not inherently indicative of depth. Sometimes a concise statement is elegant. Sometimes it is merely the complete extent of what its speaker was capable of producing. Silence may be mysterious. It may also be empty. The distinction becomes obvious the moment the person begins talking.
So, please: continue insisting that your inability to follow a sentence is actually evidence of my poor communication. It is an extraordinarily efficient method of identifying the weakest participant in any conversation. And should six syllables constitute a personal attack, the dictionary is not your enemy. It is an intervention.
Wonderful, I was beginning to worry the sustained cognitive exertion had killed you.
βFuck you too, Nygma.β Four whole words. A subject, a verb, an object, and even the correct application of a comma by implication. Slade, this is extraordinary. We should commemorate the occasion. Iβll have a plaque made.
Do you know what I admire most? The progression. First, you dismissed my speech as βbabbling.β Then, when confronted with an argument, you reduced your response to βblah blah blah.β Now youβve abandoned pretense entirely and arrived at profanity.
Itβs practically evolutionary. In reverse.
Keep going. Iβm fascinated to discover what lies beneath language. Perhaps your next response will be an open-mouthed snarl. After that, you can throw a rock at me. Eventually, weβll strip away enough higher brain function to observe you communicating exclusively through territorial urination.

By the almighty, Nygma, will you quit your incessant jabberinβ? I swear you never stop talkinβ
@sword-for-hire
Slade, the fact that you experience coherent speech as βincessant jabberingβ says considerably more about the intellectual conditions inside that helmet than it does about me.
Some of us communicate through complete sentences rather than tactical grunting, gunfire, and prolonged displays of masculine disapproval.
Maybe some of us donβt need to babble like an overeager thesaurus tβseem smart. We show it. Or did you forget that Batmanβs solved every riddle your βgeniusβ mind has ever come up with?
The inevitable invocation of Batman, because apparently even Deathstroke requires another manβs accomplishments to make his arguments for him.
Yes, Slade, he solves them. Eventually. After hours of investigation, several incorrect assumptions, extensive property damage, and the devoted assistance of an entire network of masked adolescents. That is not evidence that my riddles lack sophistication. It is evidence that they require Gothamβs most obsessive detective, unlimited resources, and the combined labor of a small vigilante municipality to unravel.
Besides, the objective of a riddle is to be solved. An unsolvable puzzle is not genius; it is defective construction. The achievement lies in making the answer attainable while ensuring the journey toward it is sufficiently difficult, elegant, and humiliating.
You might understand the distinction if your own problem-solving methodology extended beyond identifying a target and inserting ammunition into it.
But by all means, continue βshowingβ your intelligence.
I donβt know what possesses you to talk like youβre givinβ a speech at the White House all the time, but I do know youβre a goddamn pain in my ass, Nygma.
The only reason I donβt got any triumphs over you tβlist is βcause I donβt find merit in bragginβ about beatinβ a defenseless twig. Itβd be dishonorable.
Oh, Slade, how touching. Youβve mistaken my preference for intellectual confrontation over blunt-force trauma for an inability to defend myself. I assure you, the distinction becomes considerably clearer once the floor beneath you begins asking riddles.
Men like you invoke honor whenever winning would be unimpressive and losing would be humiliating.
As for my manner of speaking, I apologize. I understand sustained thought can sound like a formal address when your usual conversations consist of coordinates, ammunition counts, and monosyllabic threats.
Still, youβve finally said something interesting.
You believe Iβm harmless. Hold on to that belief, Slade. It may be the only advantage I ever give you.
Against me, you are defenseless, Nygma. You think I donβt use brains, but theyβre my greatest weapon. Or did you forget I can use 90% of my brain? Where your poor little average human self can only use 10%. Sure, itβs an impressive ten. But still only ten.
Weβve never competed precisely because itβd be dishonorable. As much as Iβd love tβput a bullet between your eyes, doinβ it for free when your greatest weapon is a tongue twisterβd look pretty bad. Iβm a mercenary, Nygma, my reputationβs important.
βAs for my manner of speakinββ, Jesus, how hard is it to just say βthe way I talkβ? Usinβ pretty words and makinβ me scroll through a college thesis donβt prove nothinβ but your proficiency with a thesaurus.
