these new panels we got are exciting!! they basically mean they can contact each other whenever they want🤭 babs got arrested and richard looks down in the dumps as you can see... i was starting to come to terms with richard and babs gonna ending up together but she is gone now?? ngl im fine w it tho, i'd love to see kory in this comic as a dickkory shipper🤭
Wasn’t Dick cheating retconned? Istg I remember that not being canon anymore.
the editors literally tried to retcon the whole thing by making it seem like they were just drifting apart and losing passion naturally, completely erasing how dick was actually devastated and hated himself for what happened with Mirage. and then, while dick was still in that phase of not being able to forgive himself, he cheated with barbara right before their wedding day which is the absolute biggest fiasco ever 😡 formatting it like that is just wild...so yeah, calling it a retcon is technically accurate in terms of how DC tried to alter the narrative, but the cheating incident itself remains the actual, core reason behind their breakup 🩷🙏
can we PLEASE talk about how that one panel (new titans #33) is literally being taken out of context because i’m losing my mind hereeee. like read between the lines guys, for ONCE dick is actually innocent here?? 😭he doesn't randomly dislike kory or "lose feelings" out of nowhere -based on the story- (And he didn't cheat on babs either don’t worry🙏) it’s the literal illusion messing with his head, making him think he has feelings for Donna, which naturally makes him act distant toward kory. and of course, it leaves kory feeling like she’s in a completely one-sided relationship when that couldn't be further from the truth. and even their actual breakup happened because nightwing cheated, YES, but people always conveniently forget that he was literally UNDER AN ILLUSION THEN TOO. dickkory is rooted so profoundly deep, it's insane. the only time his mind actually wandered for real was with barbara. and don't even get me started on babs because DC literally retconned her whole history just to force them together 😡 she was never meant to be his peer, they just aged her down and rewrote the timeline to make it fit.
dickkory didn’t end because dick’s feelings for kory faded. it ended because he messed up, panicked, and hated himself for it. this panel making it look like he has zero feelings for her is literally a fake moment caused by a hallucination. it’s not real honestly i can’t even blame the writers here. the writers actually love dickkory and wanted them married. they always try to protect kory and write her with the respect she deserves, but the "EDITORS" keep blocking them and forcing these narrative shifts. the editorial interference is doing them so dirty 😭
hiiii! Could I request a Leo fic where some characters from HOO are hanging out in the night at CHB and reader and Leo aren't dating (yet) but reader gets instinctively closer to Leo cause he's a human fireplace and he warms reader up? (GN reader) Thanks! Loveee the way you write for Leo btw
Aaaa, thank you!!! Leo is honestly just my favourite person to write for, I've missed writing for him, so it means a lot to me that you like how I write him :), hope I did your idea justice, sorry for the late reply and that the ending kind of sucks, I'll maybe redo it later if I'm not tired, and thank you so much for requesting!

A hushed whisper and laugh was what could be heard, as a group of halfblood teens raced quietly to the docks, you being one of them. It was the beginning of the end when it came to summer, nights starting to catch a chill and a nip to them, a chill that one could easily forget. One being you, the only person there who forgot to bring a jacket. A shiver crossed your body as you sat with your friends by the docks, your drink quivering in your hands.
“Jeez, it's freezing.” You say through guarded teeth, the rest chuckle and urge, ‘It’s fine, you’ll be fine.’ You just groan and huddle closer to yourself. Piper exclaims that you're being dramatic, Percy comments on your early exchange, when you claimed you had no need for a jacket. You roll your eyes, trying to form some kind of protest, but the buzzing minds of the group have turned to another topic, leaving you to sourly gaze around. As you scan the area again until you spot Leo, crossing over to you with that grin on his face, the one you like to hope he keeps for you, because at this point it gives you too many butterflies in your stomach for it not to be. His brown curls slightly dishevelled from the wind, he’d slipped on a simple hoodie, some skate thing he’d got last time the two of you had gone into town, a drink of his own in his hand. You can’t help but think about how handsome he looks, and how he’s still wearing the bracelet you made him during some random arts and crafts seminar. He plops next to you, already spurring out words as his attention focuses instantly on you.
“How’s it cooking? Good looking?” He grins, his voice has a crackle to it as his usual flirting splurged in his opening overused lines. You’d heard this one before, and you would roll your eyes, but you're freezing, so you just nod back. That doesn’t stop the warmth in your cheeks from forming, if you could call it warmth at this point. You hate how he can say stupid lines like that, ones he uses regularly on you, and still make your heart flutter.
“No jacket today? You'll catch a cold.” He pouts playfully.
“I’m fine.” You retort, ego already bruised from the earlier jabs. He gives you a curious look, which you return with a shrug. “Seriously, don’t worry.”
He looks like he wants to say something, but nods instead. His attention, though never fully drifting from you, turns to the conversation of the rest of your friends. Though his eyes glance back often as his hands fidget with the strings of his hoodie. So you're again left sitting there, feeling like you're crazy for your shivers. You do notice, however, the heat radiating off of Leo. You assumed it, him being a son of Hephaestus and all, but it hadn’t registered in your brain just how warm he was until you could practically feel it radiating off of him despite the space between the two of you, the one you were now eager to cross, brain itching at the idea of doing it, of just biting the bullet and curling up to the boy. Your nervousness says no, that's too brash, unfair to him… but you're so cold… the debate settled in your mind as you leaned on his arm slightly. You felt his body stiffen with the sudden pressure, but he looked over and relaxed, a small smile on his face.
“I knew you were cold.”He grins, and you shoot him a glare in response.
“Shut up.”
His smile widened, taking the bold move of lightly wrapping his arm around you to pull you closer. His hoodie is plush; it cushions you in. “One benefit of being a child of a fire god, I suppose.” He mumbles playfully, heart beating faster as you offer no reply except for a head buried on his shoulder. Sighing at the warmth finally being provided to you. You can't even stop thinking about the situation, for you know if you did, your heart would beat so fast it'd fall out. The others pretend not to notice, because, well, at this point, they feel like they’ve waited forever for at least one of you two to make the move. All so tired of watching the two of you stumble and grin at each other, flirting then not flirting, then touching and not touching, exhausting really. So they take this as a sign, the group migrates, you and Leo along with it, but they make sure to slowly fall further and further behind you two as you walk, Leo’s arm still around you.
He’s talking about nonsense now, well, not nonsense to him, definitely nonsense to you. But the way his eyes light up as he explains some mechanical achievement he’s done, pulling you closer subconsciously with every gust of wind that blows your direction, made it all worth it to just stand and listen. His eyes would meet yours, brown and twinkling with something. You hadn’t noticed when he fell silent, or when you two stopped walking. Only that you were now alone on the freezing beach, the group having run off, and were staring at each other.
“Are you still cold?” Leo asked, quiet and soft. You nodded, soft eyes mirroring his. He stepped forward a little, taking his other arm and wrapping it around you, pulling you close. You swayed with the wind, tucked into Leo’s arms. His arms around you, one hand on the back of your neck to keep your face sheltered. He hummed into your hair.
“(Name)...?”
You pull back, meeting his eyes.
“Leo.”
He smiles softly, concealing a nervousness in the corner of his lips.
“Can I kiss you?”
Your breath hitched, eyes widening, you couldn't even form words.
“You want to?” You managed to stutter out, he nodded.
“Well… Yeah. ‘Thought I made that obvious.” He chuckled shyly.
“I thought you were just like that with everyone.” You admit, smiling sheepishly, he shakes his head.
“So… how about it?”
You laugh at his reintegration of the topic, not stopping to reply as your lips connect to his in a sweet, soft, long-awaited kiss that has your stomach fluttering and your heart lifting. Pulling away with twin flushed cheeks, you both smile.“ Okay, I may be a little less cold now.” You grin, he smirks.
“Oh, so you won’t be needing my warmth now, huh?” He says, sliding his arms off of you before he's stopped by your grabbing, holding his arms in place on your shoulders.
“Don’t you dare!”
