    “I don’t- I don’t actually need the glasses. They’re part of the mild-mannered thing...” 

There she was. Sat on a railing, glass of peach tea in hand, looking out on a city that was surprisingly less shitty than she’d imagined it. A bit greener, a bit- a bit less spiteful and dedicated to locking her up in the tower and ruining her childhood... Uhm.

    “Auntie Pam suggested them. ‘Thicker the frame the better’... there was a lot more misandrist subtext, but that’s the gist of it.” A sip of her tea, she turned her head to look at her mo- at her host in this dimension. This was somehow more difficult than speaking to her actual mother. She should’ve gone to the batcave instead...

What has made you completely lose your chill?

Mind, most of these instances can be found in logs on Skype chats because I try to not go off on tumblr. It’s a public forum, after all, and I know my words are being seen by more than just my friends and I don’t want to offend anyone inadvertently. I get very frustrated over the various iterations of John’s portrayal in relatively recent media since Hellblazer has been kicked off Vertigo. I mean, to be fair, the last fifty issues of the Vertigo series were a mess too. Like I’m entirely convinced the reason why it was canceled was due to Peter Milligan’s atrocious treatment of him and other characters. Listen, this asshat brought Kit back for the sole purpose of having John tell her about how he had finally found the ability to love someone more than he’d ever loved her because they accepted the magic and messed up parts of his life which -- Is so messed up I can’t even express. But yeah, I’m not real happy with the way DC has used him, like in JLD and Injustice or the way he’s been written in the new Hellblazer series. It just feels like a fundamental misunderstand of his character and it just makes me feel like I’m going crazy. Like, it’s not that hard to do research? I feel like a lot of these writers are just working with a basic outline of his personality, which hardly captures the whole of his characterization. Because it’s very easy to just say “John is a con man magician that sometimes does terrible things to get the job done or serve his purpose”, but there’s so much more to him that’s really important than just that single sentence.

I hate seeing other role-players treat my partners like shit. It completely pisses me off when I see another mun act really poorly to them, but I rarely get involved because like...usually it’s just shitty RP etiquette or fandom drama. Like for example going off about shipping or their character in the tags, so you know, it’s not my business to go after the offending the party, but it’s still infuriating and you better believe we’re venting among each other on Skype. 

  what if this arc of batman ends with talia...

i can’t believe talia and selina are getting married

"Well, fancy seeing you again!"
