*This post is about the new Superman movie so if you haven’t watched it yet beware of spoilers*

I just saw the new Superman movie, tell me why my reaction to Lex being able to access the Fortress of Solitude was “Damn, Lex already pregnant with Conner” rather than “Oh Lex has Clark’s DNA with him via vial or something.”

I’ve decided to watch Invincible today! I basically know nothing about it so what are some insane things in Invincible taken out of context that I won’t get?

Damian being told his whole life his dad is Batman is so important to his and Dick’s relationship because *his* Batman isn’t Bruce, it’s Dick. And Robin being a title that Dick’s mom gave him and Damian being the first person Dick actually gave the title to is just as important.

Bad Harry Potter Headcanon #22

The only room not touched during the Order’s stay in 12 Grimmauld Place was Regulus’ room. Sirius didn’t care about the rest of the house and the memories of his parents and childhood attached to it being destroyed but he couldn’t stand the memory of his baby brother being destroyed, the baby brother he abandoned and still loved. In the same way parents whose kids died use their child’s room as memorials of them, untouched and unchanged by time, Sirius and what he can infer, Walburga did the same with Regulus’ room. Maybe, he thought, he is just a bit like his mother. They had many things in common that Sirius refused to acknowledge but he couldn’t help but admit they did share their love for Regulus. Regulus was both their baby.

Bad Harry Potter Headcanon #21

✨Graves Edition✨

Sirius’ gave should be empty with his body going into the veil and all but it isn’t. Inside of his coffin is the Slytherin Locket and Regulus’s note. Harry put it in there for him so he could have closure about his brother’s death; that somehow the message would reach Sirius before he shunned Regulus in the afterlife (both being stubborn and poor communicators, also Regulus def wouldn’t admit to anyone what he did even in the afterlife). That even though Sirius didn’t know in life why Regulus died or that Regulus died trying to do the right thing (kill Voldemort), he would know in death what Regulus did and maybe with that knowledge, it could possibly encourage them to heal their relationship in the afterlife. Maybe then they could have the relationship they so desperately yearned to have with each other. It only took dying.

Regulus’ grave isn’t as empty as it should be either. In it lays a photo. A photo of Sirius and him before either of them went to Hogwarts. It’s the last photo ever taken of Regulus smiling and laughing because when Sirius went away (first Hogwarts, then when he left for good) he stopped.

Sirius and Remus are buried next to James in the Potter plot of Godric’s Hollow rather than their own family plots. Sirius feeling more at home and family with the Potter’s than his own. Remus loved his family but he’d rather spend eternity with his brothers that he didn’t have enough time with instead; the ones he’s been mourning longer than he knew them for. Also Harry insisted, “They’re brothers! They would’ve wanted this!” and “I own the plot now! I give myself permission to do this!” and “No, Sirius would not want to be buried with his family. Are you out of your mind????”

Sirius, Remus, and James have matching head stones. All of them have the classic stuff of name, birthdate, death date, ‘loving son, brother…’ but their headstones also include their Marauders’ name and ‘Mischief Managed’ (it was added to James’ when Harry was designing the other two’s).

Thank you for reading my thoughts‼️❤️

There is no way that Supers are built like that in the eyes of Kryptonians. As humans to get stronger we need to work out, working out causes micro-tears in muscles that heal stronger that causes us to bulk up. But Supers are aliens, they are specifically aliens that are much stronger than humans naturally without working out, the Supers living on Earth have never encountered something that would be super difficult to lift that often meaning their muscles never experienced physical strain often enough to cause the micro-tears that lead to bulk. Meaning that Supers shouldn’t be built like that, they have never worked out a day in their lives, so if they were to meet a Kryptonian that did work out it would be comparing a babies bulk to a body builder’s. Is this a long winded way to say that I think that the Supers are actually as strong as an average Kryptonian and actually don’t have super strength comparatively to their alien race? Yes it is.

Quick Fire Bat Headcanons

Bruce had a hyper-fixation on bats growing up and that’s why he’s Batman

Damian’s first pet was a Robin gifted to him by Ra’s as some form of irony from him

Jason vaguely remembers his time at LoA, but it’s all very hazy and the only clear thing he remembers is Damian’s laughter

Jason was assigned as Damian protector and caretaker at his time at the LoA

Damian was super upset at Jason for not acknowledge their time together before realizing Jason doesn’t remember

Bernard did find Dana Drake incredibly attractive, but he was mostly using her as a cover for him writing “Bernard Drake” in his notebooks

Bernard had a crush on Tim during high school

Tim saw Bernard writing “Bernard Drake” in his notebooks once and after Bernard told him it was for Dana, Tim told him “You know she’s only a Drake because she’s married to my dad right?”

Bernard was sent to a catholic boarding school after the Darla incident

Bernard figured out Tim was Robin during his time at his catholic boarding school

Bernard is more interested in Tim Drake than Robin even if he’s a fanboy, he’ll always be more of a Tim stan.

Dick purposely eats weird things to freak out his family, he’s actually a very good cook

Much like cooking Dick is a great singer, but purposely sings badly to bother the family

Duke teaches Damian about pop culture and they are actually super close

Everyone, but Duke, got a bit freaked out when Damian put his pop culture lessons to used, Duke was very proud

Bruce and Damian have Martha Wayne’s smile

While people argue that Damian looks the most like Bruce or Talia, all Alfred sees is Martha

Damian becomes a veterinary surgeon taking after one of his better grandfathers but adding his own twist

Damian gives the best advice out of the family but is the last person everyone goes to for advice

All the Bats have built an immunity to motion sickness

Ahh, some good old angst, Jon has been avoiding Damian in canon and you can’t convince me otherwise. Damian, to Jon, represents a stage in his life that he will never be able to live, Damian represents Jon’s lost innocence in a way. Jon has been avoiding Damian because continuing to be friend with him would be the last nail in the coffin of all the things he has lost. Jon has to stand bye as Damian goes to his first day of high school, prom, graduation knowing that if he didn’t go with his grandfather that he could be living out these moment with him. Damian represents a life he will never be able to live, and he can’t face that, not yet at least.

[friendlyneighborhoodplebeian]

I think it’s really funny that people say Damian has no friend when he has more friend than Jon. Jon has Damian and Kathy, Damian on the other hand has Jon, Colin, Maya, Suren, Nika, and probably a few more I’m missing. Jon may be more sociable than Damian, but Damian can make more friends than Jon.

[jonathan-samuel-smith]

No but I've been SAYING this omg. I made a list of all the friends Damian made.

it goes ravi, goliath, dick, rose wilson, colin, supergirl and blue beetle (though not close friends), stephanie, jason and tim, maya, mia/maps, duke thomas, suren, Jon, then the Titans. (From his introduction to the start of super sons, in order of when he made the connections).

Jon has Kathy, Damian, and George in metropolis academy (though she doesn't know he's superboy). He's bullied and lonely. He's mad that one of his only friends only spends time with him because of who their dad's are. Doesn't matter if Damian would actually still hang with him because he doesn't think he would.

And I could really dig into a character study here but I'll refrain.

[friendlyneighborhoodplebeian]

I didn’t include Ravi, Goliath, Dick, Stephanie, Jason, Tim, and Duke into the list because they’re more family than friends. And for Rose, Kara, Jaime, and the Titans I was unsure if they are close enough to Damian to be considered friend, they just feel very distant from him. And I straight up forgot about Maps 😅.

But I agree that people straight up forget that Jon doesn’t have a a lot of friends and is considered weird by the people at his school. And I think that’s why Damian and Jon’s friendship is so important, not Damian, but for Jon. Damian is one of his only friends and the only one that knows everything about him and that’s so important. Their friendship because of that is fundamentally different then the rest of Jon’s. Jon doesn’t have to hide anything and doesn’t fear being found out about by Damian he can exist in his full capacity unapologetically aside from having reeling his power so he doesn’t hurt Damian.

That leads me into my thought about Jay, and I know many of us don’t like to think about Jon being aged up, but his relationship with Jay does add something that I don’t think anyone really thinks off. Jon is afraid of himself to some degree or at least his powers. He feel comfortable with Jay because he can’t hurt Jay, which clearly shows that Jon has had this fear of hurting people, of hurting the people he loves this whole entire time. And that add something, quite a bit of something to his character, that I in all honesty can’t fully analyze right because I just haven’t given it enough thought. But this could have totally been added into Jon’s story without him being aged up. And him not being aged up, but this concept still existing would have added so much to Jon and Damian’s relationship, it would have been so juice, and so good. Like can you imagine the angst and the subsequent fluff, it would’ve been amazing.

I kinda just went off on you, but you gave me so many thoughts, and I would love to read your character study on Jon.

[friendlyneighborhoodplebeian]

Damian shouldn’t be a hero. Or at least not in the future when he’s all grown up. His whole story is that he’s this godlike being that’s learning to be human, which is in contrast with the rest of his family; humans become so much more and becoming godlike. While the rest of the Batfam abandons and leaves behind civilian life Damian is reaching out for it. They look for extraordinary, but he’s finally finding ordinary. And while I like him becoming Nightwing, becoming his own hero, or taking over the LoA and turning it around to be something more morally light, him not being any of those things brings me so much joy. Because I don’t think any of those things would make him truly happy and I think he deserves a happy ending. His whole story is him becoming a “real boy” and him not stepping away from the hero life feels like a betrayal of that.

[friendlyneighborhoodplebeian]

Harvey and Bruce deserve to be childhood best friends. Because we get scenes like them first meeting at a park and Harvey being the only one to come up to Bruce to play and saying “You’re weird, want to be best friends?” Or Bruce noticing the bruises left on Harvey by his dad. Or Bruce helping Harvey with with his mental illnesses before he was diagnosed, Or during Martha and Thomas’s funeral Harvey comforting Bruce as Bruce sobs in his arm because it finally became real. Or Bruce comforting Harvey when he is finally diagnosed and helping him adjust. Or their goodbye when Bruce leaves the city to train to become Batman. Or their reunion when Bruce comes back and Harvey it the first face he sees when he get off the plane. The betrayal and sadness of Harvey becoming Two Face would hit so hard and have so many more layers if they basically spent their whole live together.

[friendlyneighborhoodplebeian]

Who’s Batman’s best friend? Is it Superman, maybe Wonder Woman. All possible answers, but do you know who Bruce Wayne’s best friend is? Clark Kent maybe, or Diana Prince. No. It’s Harvey Dent. Harvey Dent is Bruce Wayne’s best friend and that affects Batman. Batman doesn’t try to save Two Face because he cares, he tries to to save Harvey because Bruce cares. Every time Batman tries to save Harvey it’s not Batman, it’s Bruce peaking out from where he’s hidden. Batman want Two Face brought to justice, Bruce wants Harvey to be saved.

I need an au were Damian and Kon’s relationships with their parents mirror each other. We have the villainous parent that engineered your existence (Talia and Lex) and the distant, not-knowing-how-to-reach-out super-parent (Bruce and Clark). And when Damian and Kon first meet they both already have these preconceived notions with each other and instantly take a disliking to the other, but while hanging out with at each other’s houses with Jon and Tim, respectively, they realize how much they have in common and they learn to help and understand each other.
