‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎MOST OF THE WORLD had a very specific idea of ' oh this kid's parents died ? we have to offer condolences ! meaningless words that won't do shit ! of course ! ' and it had been ... infuriating when he was a kid. every single time, it made him scoff and snark off something cruel.

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎it was worse for big bow's death. he never could remember his biological mother's face, and roy harper sr. was a distant memory at best. big bow had been his truest father, had taught him to shoot in the first place and gave him a real home with love.

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎but oliver -- oliver made three fathers he'd had and lost.

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎the man who kicked him out at his lowest moment to run off with his best friend. the man who didn't know how to be a father but desperately wanted to try in all the wrong ways. the man he never got to fix shit with. and now he definitely never would.

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎hearing the batman say those same words ... roy knew it was different. they were all just a bunch of orphans anyway, right ? but when it's bruce wayne looking at him like that ... calling him son.

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ it shouldn't make his throat tighten as much as it does, and yet. ‎“ think there's a record on how many parents someone can lose ? ” the joke comes out strangled, his best attempt to not drown.

➔ you could have died , what were you thinking?

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎THE TRUTH WAS THAT roy hadn't been thinking. at all. maybe he'd had one thought, briefly, about how much he missed lian. or another about how jade or ollie or dinah would feel if he did die --

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎but he hadn't really taken the time to consider the idea that he should avoid dying at most costs.

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎worse ; guilt was quick to catch up with him when he came to realize that he hadn't even put bucky on the list of people who'd probably give a fuck if he finally kicked the bucket.

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎it combined horribly with the adrenaline and blood loss, stomach doing flips. a hand covered the deep slash on arm, taking deep breaths. he needed to be back in therapy. he needed back real soon.

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎any mission with the avengers, bigger world-ending shit ? even now that it was over, it left him rattled. “ i - ... i wasn't. ” it's admitted with a lump in his throat, looking at bucky with a pained expression.

𝕯𝖊𝖘𝖕𝖎𝖙𝖊 𝖜𝖍𝖆𝖙 𝖒𝖆𝖓𝐲 𝖙𝖍𝖔𝖚𝖌𝖍𝖙 𝖔𝖋 𝖍𝖊𝖗, she did not kill for the sake of killing. Each life taken, each plunge of her blade was made with thought and purpose. She had felt the cold sting of her blade once before. She'd felt the terrifying nothingness of death. The torment was saved for those that deserved it. Those that were listed in her contracts. All vile, all deserving of death which she would gladly give.

Amber eyes continue stare back at him, he would not scare easily. Unfortunate for the assassin.

She lets the silence that falls between them sit a little longer. There was no need to play games here at all. ❝ I've consistently left traces behind, knowing you were trailing me. Distant, but not too far. Tell me what you want and maybe I will let you live. ❞

[arrowmade]

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ANYONE ELSE WOULD BE terrified, and rightfully so. roy, however, had played this stupid game his whole damn life. if elektra wanted him dead, it would've already happened.

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎“ i need info. a lead on something pretty personal. ” no reason to feed her any more nonsense, not when she was directly asking. “ i was told you'd be my best bet on something actually solid. ”

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎he gestured at a random point behind him, “ but like i said, personal. got a safehouse nearby ? ”

i love it when i see panels like this, because i just think of all the comics that are like. "this is roy, hes such a ladykiller [wink wonk]" and then u look at him and hes just the most pathetic man ive ever seen. hes entranced by donna's piercing blue eyes <3

❝ i had a feeling you’d show up. it’s sort of our thing. like it’s fate or something. ❞

❝ thought you knew by now, roy, when you call, i'll be there. ❞

though he may have failed at times, dick had resolved himself to always be there for roy should he need him. no matter how many times they have argued and butted heads, @arrowmade was one of his closest friends, and that would never change. if their fate was to meet each other over and over again, then dick could hardly complain.

❝ when you send me a message like that, how could i not see what all the fuss was about ? ❞ he lands silently next to the archer, peering out into the star city cityscape but not immediately seeing whatever roy was looking at. no doubt a stakeout of some kind. he sinks back into the shadows slightly, only the blue of his costume and domino mask standing out in the shade. ❝ y'know, it's not like you to call for backup. unless it's something serious. ❞

[arrowmade]

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ROY WAS PRETTY WELL known for never requesting backup. even if he did actually need it, he just -- didn't. most things would sort themselves out in those cases, but tonight ...

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎he needed dick. “ careful, boy wonder. sounds like a power i could easily abuse. what if i desperately need a pizza delivery on a sunday night ? ” entirely teasing, but the archer's eyes were focused ahead.

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ the redhead handed over binoculars, ‎“ straight ahead. ”

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ a run down building that he was pretty sure used to be an old italian restaurant, slightly off from the main roads with plenty of surrounding space. five vans were waiting outside.

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ boxes were being moved from the building to the vans. roy sighed, cracking his neck. “ an old friend of mine's in all those boxes. wanna take a guess ? ” billions worth in heroin alone, in his city.

[arrowmade]

➔ you didn't have to be so reckless just to prove a fucking point.

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎HE KINDA DID THOUGH, didn't he ? the boy wonder was nothing if not pointlessly reckless, it was a taste of his own medicine. maybe it might actually get the message through that thick skull.

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎roy rolled his eyes, lungs wheezing softly as he tried to shift. he'd hit the ground hard, but it wasn't something he couldn't recover from. “ i sure fuckin' did, grayson. a healthy reminder that whatever you're feeling right now is what you always put me through. ”

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ it was, however, doubly bad this time. because dick would have to explain to lian that her dad was hurt. she was only 3, but she understood enough to show concern and understand tone.

Get out of here with that. You're not a burden. Don't ever say that again.

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎IT HAD COME OUT as a joke. it was supposed to be one, but donna was always too good at seeing right through him. the tinge of bitter, hidden under an insane amount of forced wit.

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎he wanted it to be a joke, to just let it be laughed off and forgotten about. donna knew him so much better than that. it stunned him for a moment, mouth opening to say something before closing again.

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎letting that be a joke when he was sweating out some of the worst withdrawals of his life was -- yeah. she got him there. “ ... pretty sure it's all i'm good for right now, beautiful. ”

You sure you're old enough for this ride?

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ROY RAISED AN EYEBROW, arms crossed. “ that so sincerely sounds like a challenge. what, ya got a bad hip ? ”

[castlle]

"No, I helped you." Frank replied, bluntly. He looks down on him, seeing the slight sign of a tremble. He knows adrenaline fades fast when you're not in the heat of the moment anymore and now fighting off the exhaustion before it fully takes you is a chore.

"You need to take a minute. You're gonna crash hard later and feel like shit right after. Just breathe for a sec. You don't need to grab everything right away. These assholes will wait for you." He nods towards the rest of the SHIELD agents scattered everywhere now.

He hadn't meant to jump in, but when you see someone getting swarmed, you don't really think, you just do so he did. He goes for a smoke, lighting it with a flick of his lighter. A small cherry glowed at the end of the cigarette. "What a shitty day." He muttered, exhaling smoke.

[arrowmade]

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎IT'S MORE THAN HE'D been expecting. just breathe for a sec wasn't in the vocabulary of most people in this line of work, but frank was very obviously speaking from experience.

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎roy took a shaky breath, chuckling in disbelief. shitty day was right, almost an understatement. he adjusted his quiver and tried not to stare at the cigarette. one tricky habit that never fully left him alone.

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎the smell is a comfort, at least. “ you're tellin' me. ” ‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎he couldn't look at the blood. the last time he'd seen that much ... no parent should have to bury their child. it's an odd moment to remind himself that at least he got to. frank -- did he ... ?

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎clearing his throat, roy rolled his wrist to shake out any pain. “ thanks for steppin' in when ya did. i'm, uh. i'm roy. ” technically agent harper was what he knew he should've said, but luckily no one there was above him in rank enough to call him on it.

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎🏳️‍🌈 : roy never came out as bi he just -- started dating whoever. he was never afraid anyone on the team would judge him cause they're all a lil' queer, even if roy had that figured out before anyone else did

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎🏳️‍🌈 : whenever he gets the opportunity to help someone else talk through their feelings to help figure out their identity, he's over the moon. he really does enjoy being in a position where he's been out for so long anyone else can look at him as the first person they consider for talkin' things through with and has always been a fantastic listener

‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎🏳️‍🌈 : he went to pride maybe twice before he realized it's not really his scene. it was more fun when he was younger but he's now usually too busy or distracted to even remember when pride month rolls around to begin with. titans drag him out to have fun when --
