Here is the link! What an amazing idea ❤️
I need a fanfic where fanon!Dick is the perception his brothers have of him, and Dick simply accepts those ideas of him, without trying to prove otherwise.
Tim admires Dick, yes, but he thinks he'd set a computer on fire if he tried to turn it on.
Dick, being the one who helped with almost the entire Watchtower system, who hacks into different Intelligence Services whenever he feels like it, and steals files from the catcomputer whenever he needs something and doesn't want to ask for it, without anyone knowing (not even Tim).
Jason, admitting that Dick is very socially intelligent, but horrible at other types of intelligence, especially math and literature.
Dick, who was a top student who graduated from high school early in advanced classes and only doesn't pursue further college degrees because he is too bored to go to class, plus, he won every math competition he entered and was considered a genius by Bruce, Alfred, and his teachers. (And he read all the books in the mansion since he was little, but he is more fond of classic literature than modern literature).
Damian, thinking Dick is too soft, that he works on hugs and doesn't know how to set boundaries because of how kind he is.
Dick, who can be even more brutal than Bruce when required, who actually prefers his personal space most of the time (he does like physical contact, but not as much as everyone thinks), and that he has not only hurt people because of how strong his words are when he is angry, but he has gotten into fist fights with people to defend his own boundaries.
(He's still the one who knows Dick best tho, yes, he is too nice for his own good sometimes, but he's not stupid either).
And Duke is sure Dick can't cook to save his life because he always sees him eating cereal or just simple food.
Dick knows how to cook perfectly, he just likes simple food more and cereal is mostly because it is his comfort food and his need for sugar to keep going.
Not to mention everyone thinks he's a playboy, heartbreaker and all that.
No, (actually Tim had more partners than him, lol), and Dick is quite a demisexual, romantic person, who feels sick whenever something ends in a one night stand, because he feels that those things should be done with someone he loves. Plus, he really doesn't even like people complimenting him on his looks; even though everyone thinks he enjoys the attention, which is why his brothers send him thirst trap type videos made by his fans (both Nightwing and Dick Grayson's).
Girls actually believe some of these things too, but not to the extent that boys do.
It can also play on the fact that other people rather think that Dick has anger issues and is completely violent, or thinking that he was Bruce's nightmare when he was a child.
Extra points if it has a mention that he's the one who's actually addicted to coffee and insomniac, lmao.
We talk about this far too passionately for me to not reblog this <3
I don't think we're paying half of the attention we should be to the inherent horror of the Isekai trope. God knows I love it, like a stupid amount but can you even imagine?
Typically, the character firsts dies, hit by a bus, some illness, murdered, and that's your starting point. You die, in some gruesome way you are ripped from your world and then thrusted into another. You stopped breathing, you ceased to exist, you died. You didn't though. Because you're alive. All of a sudden, it's like nothing happened. But it did, didn't it? Tell me, is a wound still a wound if there's no scar? Where do you put all your grief if there's no grave?
There's no time to focus on that though, because you're in a stranger body. That's body horror, babe. Your skin is fairer, your hair is curled, your legs are longer, every part of you is not your own. Your hair, the colour of your eyes, the damn figure of your body, you don't look like yourself. Your nose is too straight, your smile lines are gone, your cheeks are rosey. Your hands aren't worn in the right places, maybe not at all, where are your burn marks from the stove, your calluses from your work, the cheap, chipped nail polish. You can't walk on these legs, these aren't the legs that took your first step, they aren't the legs you scraped learning to ride a bike, these legs haven't carried you through your life.
And what of these people who know you? No, not you, the person you're living in. It's their name you must respond to, their memories you must bluff through, their fate you must live through. You must abandon all sense of self to survive, you can never be yourself again because you died, you never existed here, because you are someone else now. You have been pulled on stage without a script, how long until they realize? That you can only echo back what they've said? That their child doesn't know their parent anymore? Their childhood friend, their lover, their rival.
What about them? Did they die for you to take their place? Have they taken yours? What have they endured, what did they love, why did this happen, how are you suppose to carry on when you have you have no idea if they're safe? Every good thing that happens to you should have been theirs, every bad thing that happens to you they've had ten times over.
What about the complete loss of your original world, hm? Especially in a fantasy world. You will never stand in your childhood home again, never eat your regional dish again, never hear the popular songs on the radio. Everyone you have ever known is in a world divorced from the one you are trapped in. You will never see them again and they will never know why.
You are an imposter in every meaning of the word, you never wanted to be, and you can never stop, and no one will ever understand because you're the only real person in this world. You will always be alone, in your happiest ending, you will never escape the world you were dragged out of to be reborn.
This happens far too often ngl
He just loves his Mama
Saw this picture of a Puma cub looking at its mother and said “omg it’s so them.” So I decided to draw the cuties
did you know that every time you try to scold a sex-repulsed or sex-averse ace for existing with "aspec people can like sex!" your lifespan shortens by 5 whole months and your demise gets even more fire involved
I love The Offspring (it's one of my dad's fav bands so I was listening to it from the moment I was born) and I love Chuuya!
On this wavelength I think he would like a range of different genres but would be a casual rock listener.
(what I mean is he listens to Limp Bizkit, The Offspring, Linken Park, Disturbed... etc. while cooking/doing chores/existing.
But he would be more than happy to listen to some classical symphonies or the poppiest songs in the industry.)
IDK these are just my thoughts :)
i think chuuya would really like the offsping tbh (and crazy taxi)
