I'm so tired of encountering antis in this godforsaken fandom. Even for people who aren't antis, their presence is horrifically normalized and tolerated. These people are radfems, queerphobes and racists who pose as socially aware conscientious moral purists; their ideology literally stemmed from exclusionists and racist white gays. I'm losing patience with people who tolerate them as well. You can't stay neutral in the face of poisoned wells; it makes you part of the problem.

#I want to feel sympathy because of a lot of them are freaked out kids #but at what point does the harm you do outweigh the grace you do for being young #also it isnt rocket science to understand that this isnt kind or fair or decent #if you really cared about marginalized people and social responsibility #you'd focus on harm reduction #and ethics #rather than this punitive carceral logic #all of these cultists - antis radfems exclusionists and commies - they're not concerned with human beings #weaponized ideology and social clout is what they're after #it's already bad enough to be a person of colour in a fandom #worse to be from the Global South in fandom #but this?? this is the most hostile unsafe environment I have ever encountered in the 20 years Ive been in fandom #i really miss livejournal #i miss when comics were queer rather than overrun by middle class white gay kids #fandom wankery #anti bullshit #dcu #batfamily #purity culture #spite waffle

Hey hey how about Weapon’s dreams? Do they have nightmares?

Weapon will never admit to such things. They are malfunctions that would require correction, most likely from the medical staff.

The medical staff is To Be Avoided.

(What they won't tell anyone: they remember the screams of everyone they ever used their powers on. They don't know if its better or worse when they know the face that goes with the voice. After a mission, they will have multiple days where all they dream of is the sound of screams and the smell of smoke. They do their best to ignore such things, and have learned to wake silently and appear to still be sleeping.)

Honestly Joke saying his ideal type is someone kind literally broke my heart into a million pieces and I'll tell you why... it's not because he thinks Jack is kind. It's because he thinks Jack as kind and that never changed. It's because he clung to that kindness all those years. It's because he idealizes kindness to the point where it shaped him. It's because Joke himself is his ideal type; he is kind and forgives and forgives and forgives because he wants to be forgiven so bad. Because he knows shame and guilt. When he was a kid every mistake was unforgivable, he was unforgivable so he believed it. Joke saying his ideal type is someone kind pains me because he cannot see kindness in himself. He is blind to the way he let Tattoo go without a second thought or the way he want to help others so desperately. He only sees those good intentions in Jack, because Jack doesn't have that fucked up-ness in him. In the mirror Joke only sees a thief, a lost cause.
