✯ Kin Stuff + More About Me ✯
source: dc comics (mostly pre-flashpoint with some post- stuff in there)
differences: i technically have two canons, one im permashifted as and the other i shift into fairly often but not all the time, altho i wont get into the latter on main. the former is about 50/50 canon lenient/divergent, with a few major differences and several minor ones. some of these may make me seem different to how i am in canon but i’m still me regardless! here are a few i’m willing to share:
✧ eventually went under the alias Red Kite
✧ unlabelled. lowkey romance repulsed? possibly aro? shrug
✧ on that note, only dated steph for about a week before we split (amicably), never dated anyone else.
✧ super close friends/kinda relationship anarchy vibes with kon + bart, possibly best described as a queerplatonic relationship but we never labelled it that
✧ yes i relate to a lot of popular fanon, yes i know its not accurate to canon, im probably more upset about it than you are DONT LOOK AT ME /silly
sourcemates/doubles: welcome to interact! i’m not specifically seeking out sourcemates rn but i like making friends!!
keep in mind i might not have a ton of memories around people outside the batfam (and ofc not doubles), so conversation re: that may be a bit harder. members of the rogue gallery can interact, but i may feel a bit uncomfortable at first, sorry </3
sourcemate interaction boundaries:
→ source/memory talk is welcome, i love talking about my memories!
→ despite that, i will not talk about my trauma/bad memories unless we've been friends (in THIS life) for a while. don't expect me to traumadump on you and please don't do so in return (unless its like, lighthearted and jokey)
→ light affection/canon nicknames relating to my alias/es (like rob, redbird, etc) are ok, but please don’t jump straight into acting like we know each other, even if we were close in canon. let’s get to know each other in this life!
other stuff/more about me:
✧ loved and still love photography. unfortunately my phone camera sucks and i don't have a proper one :(
✧ i really like reading comics, esp about me (is that egotistical? lmao). unfortunately i am a bit of a slow reader tho
✧ my favourite music artists are boygenius, lucy dacus, the army the navy, mitski, quadeca, the cocteau twins, and sea power (in the disco elysium OST).
✧ i am physically disabled, have adhd, autism and bipolar disorder, and get brain fog.
✧ my sleep schedule is pretty irreparably wrecked lol

i do not “delete sentences” when they start “hindering the plot” i COPY PASTE THEM into a SEPARATE DOC made just for keeping all my USELESS LINES that i will also NEVER USE so therefore i should JUST DELETE THEM but i DONT because id FEEL BAD if i did
Did an art style study and imitation of my friend @spiritinquestion 's art style, and drew Bart in their style. : >
(ID: Two drawings of Bart Allen, one is a half body drawing of Bart in his civilian clothing, holding his dog Dox in his arms, the other drawing is an excited chibi drawing of Bart in his Impulse hero outfit, he grins with his arms raised -ID End)
Tell me more about aroace Kon as a concept. Please. That idea brings joy into my soul –impulsebrainrot
I absolutely love reading Kon's character as a person that is dealing with an immense amount of a comphet partly due to the time he was made in, and also due to the Cadmus information plugged into his head that did not leave him with much individuality to start with.
When Kon was first "born" he navigated the world under various expectations and understandings that Cadmus plugged into him. He was Superman, a BOY, and boys acted a very specific way to women. He was performing a role that was assigned to him without really thinking if that was something he actually 1.) wanted and 2.) if that was even him.
Kon of course in canon does get time to parse out who he is, what he wants (and what he doesn't want) and makes a name for himself as Superboy, then Kon El and later Conner Kent as he deconstructs his life.
It's not unbelievable I think that this person who had so much of their life predetermined to sit down and think about what their truths are.
Was Kon actually attracted to the various females around him, or was he just performing in a way he thought he was supposed to? Cassie of course is an attracted girl, he admires her, likes her, she's a friend so naturally the logical conclusion would be he would want to be with her romantically and sexually. Right? That's how things go. Insert Skater Boy lyrics and the whole shebang.
So maybe Kon sits down and really thinks about it after he comes back to life, about why things don't feel right, about who he is, what he wants and he comes to the conclusion that he never really was sexually attracted to any of the girls he flirted with. And as for romance, that too was a performance because being romantic is what was expected if you thought you were attracted to a person.
Of course, Kon loves. He loves loves loves his friends and has so much love to give but not like that. He is free and he is truly himself for the first time.
If this upsets you I would ask yourself 1.) Why and 2.) Do you NEED to come into my inbox to argue with me about a headcanon that is in the vast minority?
incapable of feeling negative emotions (other than irritation but thats a different conversation) rn and yet STILL somehow nervous to talk to new people wtf is my life
i first saw impules from yj s2, he was one of my favorites when i was a kid! so now i've been reading his solo comics- i really relate to his character
Thinking about the whole "there is no platonic explanation for this" thing and how it doesn't account for intense platonic situationships and anyways I think we should start saying "there is no casual explanation for this" bc really what we're talking about is the way the characters in question are Obsessed with each other
there's two characters. they have been described as perfect natural foils. one of them has mentioned failing multiple classes throughout his solo run. he has skipped class to sleep, and is known for sneaking out at every opportunity, going so far as to training a dog to not bark at him to alert the headmaster. he participates in dangerous activities such as train jumping blind folded for fun. on the other side of the spectrum, you have someone that pays attention in class, down to knowing which raised hands are right vs left after they've gone down. he is rarely late, to the point that when he is, his teacher comments how unusual this is. in his solo run, he has repeatedly worked on school assignments and is seen participating in school events. he is close with several faculty members.
one is tim drake and the other is bart allen. do you know which is which?
