“Has no morals” and then it’s abt tim drake: the king of acting holier than thou

sorry i HAD to find this post again because look at him being a hardass to Steph over taking a single soda from an already trashed store. Please.

This is how the first Avengers went, right?

yeah we shared our deepest darkest most shameful secrets with one another, and i fell to my knees screaming when he died, and i tried to clone him a hundred times after giving up on cloning the rest of my myriad dead loved ones including my girlfriend and parents, and i changed the incredibly meaningful colours of my uniform to match the colours he wore instead, and when i was dying all i thought of was the possibility of seeing and being with him again, and we meant and mean more to one another than anything, but we're just friends

Actually insane about this

In his mini comic, Roy doesn't want to be like Oliver and doesn't have aspirations to be the next Green Arrow either. But he still wanted to be worthy of it, he wanted to be considered and acknowledged. He wanted to be his own man, equal to GA. He needed Ollie to look at him and say he trusts him, sees him and respects him. To acknowledge Roy is making an effort to be a better man. We, as readers, know Roy wasn't ready yet, maybe Ollie knew it too. Hell maybe Roy knew it as well, but to know something in theory doesn't mean you can't be disappointed and hurt. Here he got a clear message: Oliver didn't consider him worthy.

In JLA '06 Roy is finally his equal, he's Red Arrow and he's in JLA amongst gods and people he looked up to his whole life, he's been in superhero business longer than some of them and he knows it. He doesn't question why he's been invited and not Ollie, because he knows he's worthy of it.

he answers a question about his physical wellbeing, but he doesn't say "I'm good", he says "I'm perfect". And he knows it. He's confident and doesn't doubt his abilities or his position in the league. He called himself Red Arrow because he's an equal to Green Arrow. It's a family business and he's no longer being left behind.

82 YEARS AGO - BATMAN DEBUTED FOR THE FIRST TIME Eighty-two years ago on March 30, 1939, Detective Comics #27 hit newsstands, introducing the Caped Crusader for the very first time in a featured story called “The Case of the Chemical Syndicate.”

“And for all that fierce exterior, I’ve never met anyone who cared as deeply about his fellow man as Bruce Wayne.”  - Amanda Waller, Justice League Unlimited, Season 2 Episode 13 (2005)

this. this is what batman is supposed to be

five more minutes, mom

“Why do you care? You owe me nothing. This is not love. You have known me less than a month.”

She could have hit him, and it would have been less disorienting. He was at a loss for words as she crossed the room and sat at her vanity, brushing her hair like the brush had wronged her. He drifted into the room and sat on her bed.

“I said nothing about love,” he finally managed.

Bruce: “You’re right, I haven’t known you very long. It doesn’t matter.”

Natasha: “How can it not?”

Bruce: “Because I know you.”

i love battinson because i fully believe that he would not need to be convinced to make dick robin. dick says "i'm joining you" and bruce thinks "this kid is a freak in the exact same way as me. somebody get him a costume right fucking now."

"I have depression." - character who has been through extensive therapy.

"I feel dead inside all the time and nothing helps!" - character who does like, regular introspective thinking and is aware of the concept of mental health.

"Leave me the fuck alone I'll be fine once I get over my stupid shit." - repressed character.

"It's fine I'm just having an Empty Time. What? Yeah, empty times, you know, when everything is like bzzzzzz in your brain and you don't shower for two weeks. Why, what do you call it?" - ooooughhh now we're talkin
