sometimes you will see a joke circulate within a fandom and at first it's all fun and games but then the slow and terrible realization starts to seep in that this will become in fact a widely-accepted way to read a specific situation between characters that were subject of said joke and there is nothing you can do about it but to watch the horrors unfold in real time

It's really easy to forget that Cass enjoys being Batgirl. Obviously she's a very tortured character and her stories almost always end in tragedy, but this is still fun for her. She likes the adventure and the thrills. She likes soaring across rooftops. She likes owning badguys. She likes saving people. If anything that's one of the things that most alienates her from the people around her. Barbara is constantly trying to get her to understand that there's a life for her outside of Batgirl where she can finally be happy, what she doesn't get is that for Cass, her life as Batgirl is what happiness looks like.

constantly thinking about the fact there was one time RTD had a good take on the Master and then he cut most of it presumably to spite me personally

thirddoctor

WILF: But you said, you were told he will knock four times and then you die. Well, that’s him, isn’t it? The Master. That noise in his head? The Master is going to kill you. DOCTOR: Yeah. WILF: Then kill him first. DOCTOR: And that’s how the Master started. It’s not like I’m an innocent. I’ve taken lives. I got worse. I got clever. Manipulated people into taking their own. Sometimes I think a Time Lord lives too long. I can’t. I just can’t.

See this scene from TEoT? It’s nice enough in the ep, but it’s longer in the script:

In this one scene RTD suddenly gets why the Master is evil. It’s not the drums or insanity or anything like that. It’s much simpler. The Master just began justifying their actions as, “I deserve to be able to do this.” (Which is how we all tend to justify doing things we know are wrong.) It comes down to pride and selfishness. And it illustrates the difference between the Master and the Doctor, because the Doctor knows if they start thinking that way they’ll end up on the same road as the Master. It sets up Ten’s moment of bitterness at the end when he has to sacrifice himself for Wilf and complains that it’s not fair and he deserves so much more, but ultimately rejects that path and does the right thing.

Why did you cut most of this Mr. Davies???

TRUE writers suddenly get writing urges at 1am mid-doomscroll and proceed to ramble out the most incoherent plot into a new doc and wake up and then just. stare at it.

There’s actually something so sickening about Clark crashing out when Dick takes over as Batman and wears the suit. Dude flipped out and lost it on his favorite Robin, the kid he and Bruce helped raise together. He screams in his face and fucking crashes out because he’s grieving Bruce and here is Batman standing right in front of him but it’s not him. And it should be easier to bear that transition because it’s Dick, but it isn’t.

also this reddit comment I found when looking for additional panels took me out at the knees:

I saw you’re still accepting prompts so maybe something with tims missing spleen and his family sitting with him? 🥺

Nonnie, I hope it’s okay that it’s only one of his siblings! Tim catches a bad cold and has trouble falling asleep. Dick keeps an eye out for a worsening fever.

Cassie after explaining to Kon that she and Tim dated while he was dead: -and we had both lost so many people, we'd both lost you, and it felt like we were the only ones who really got each other, and it's... it's Tim, and I just.... anyway, we're not together anymore. we weren't really in the right mental space to be together in the first place, and some stuff happened and... well, I mean, now that you're back and we're back together... I just wanted you to know.

Kon, internally screaming at the realization that he Cassie and Tim could all be dating TOGETHER and gripping his own thighs so tightly he's starting to draw blood as he tries to keep calm: mm-hm, mm-hm! cool cool cool so hypothetically speaking-
