i found u originally on tt then stumbled upon ur blog js now and OMGG i love rover 😭😭 how did he & bart meet im so curious
oh my god so uh!!! IT DIDD NOT GO WELL AT ALL. LMAOOOOAOOAOOOO
i figured preston introduced them and rover immediately sighed loudly bro
okay so rover moved to manchester alabama after the alex incident cuz kyle thinks it'd be great if the both of them have a fresh start somewhere else that's NOT LA!! mind u rover has some #issues (which is fair considering the major force incident) so his mental state is rattled and rlly fragile which tends to make him lashout at people. so he's not.. really that nice to bart, at this time he shared similar pov on how majority of manchester junior highs student body sees bart. someone who's careless and nonchalant. someone who doesn't gaf. bro assumed bart is neurotypical im shitting tears
( but it's meant to parallel wally and kyle's relationship but this time the lantern is the #hater )
doesn't help that people INSTANTLY loves bart. its the alabama air idfk. envy issues.. so he grew almost obsessively jealous of bart because he felt left out (even if it was mostly in his own head). combined with his abandonment and neglect issues, it turned into full-on resentment bro
its actually one side beef tbh. hey so bart actually wasn't careless at all. he cared. a lot. jst not in the way rover doesn't understand yet,,,,,
(early) imp1995 rover was insecure, anxious, self-projecting, terrified of being abandoned, jealous, distrustful of the new kid 'stealing' his friends, and constantly misreads bart’s personality. AAANDD bart’s adhd and blunt replies made him seem distant, which only worsened rover’s misunderstanding.
like bro hes such a prick as a kid. its okay tho. he got better as he healed, more mellowed out. BEING A GREEN LANTERN MADE HIM A BETTER PERSON going from selfish to selfless like wow
basically this is it lol 😿😿 anyway heres pulselantern lore summarized too cuz its rlly long i think we'd be here all day 😭😭😭😭😭
