"you ok?" (From dick, who probably spent a whole five minutes trying to get up to whatever nigh unclimbable perch she flew up to)

send “you okay?” to find my muse sitting alone on a roof at night. — not accepting

Shayera is snapped out of her thoughts at the sound of a small voice, and she looks down to find an all too familiar face peering back up at her, domino mask and all. How the kid had managed to climb almost three-fourths of the way up a radio tower was anyone’s guess. She shifts her weight slightly in order to keep her balance when the structure sways in the wind. “Fine,” she calls back with a smile. “Just people watching.” To most, from this height, those wandering the streets below are little more than specks on the ground. But to her keen vision? She can see them all clear as day.

Her wings flare slightly and the muscles in her legs coil, preparing to take off. She glances at Robin again and tilts her head. “Why don’t I fly you down before you fall? Batman wouldn’t be too happy with me if I let something like that happen.” They can talk better on a rooftop, anyway.

for ONCE, kon doesn’t dispute the use of the term “superboy” . he’s too focused on the other words . “i don’t want to join the circus.” it sounds fun, maybe, in another lifetime. but the thrill of the fight? saving people? the lights and the camera and the people shoving microphones in his face? kon isn’t giving that up. not on a stage THIS BIG. a stage as big as the fucking world .  “i’m superman. i have . . . a responsibility .“ kon is superman, literally, body and - well, clones probably don’t have a soul. he can’t just run off and desert lex and lexcorp and all his . . . well . .  . fans.

nightwing’s words make sense, almost, in a theoretical level. “that’s all easy for you to say.” but in practice they’re just words . kon has things he has to do, things he was MADE to be, and no amount of hedging will get him out of that . kon floats in front of nightwing’s for, arms crossed, thinking to himself . “i was made for this.”

one for lex & one for dick (daringyoungman) ?

fusion dance time babey ;; accepting !

i’m sorry i immediately started almost crying laughing at calling him ‘Tex’, stop me, that’s illegal. in reality, he probably goes by Alex Drake

incredibly intelligent, calculating, and inventive (he’s always got a scheme or a plan)

paranoid and prone to losing track of time and self-care when fixated on something

he’s so tired. so, so tired. have you met Conner? you’d be tired, too.

i’m also laughing at the idea of him not getting any work for Lex and Tim’s respective companies done bc they refuse to let the other see how things are going??? so Alex probably ends up out of the office more often than in it.

even if he doesn’t do really serious business things, he’s very good at schmoozing at events and generally just charming the pants off people.

has he mentioned Conner is exhausting

Alex probably lasts longer than anyone would expect, honestly, because of the things that Tim and Lex can agree on/have in common, but the refusal to trust or cooperate with each other ultimately means that he’s unstable.

okay but like. young Robin Dick and babey Tim, following him around taking pictures, fusing into Fledgeling to try and keep the tiny civilian safe

he’s just excited to be here??? having fun??? kickin butt???

maybe a little vain but that’s what happens when you fuse a fanboy with his idol

gets tossed around and bounces back in only that way that little kids can do

just like. in awe of Batman.

there’s definitely a quiet sadness to him that he doesn’t like showing which is part of why he’s so exuberant- doesn’t want to get caught slipping.

despite the good things, Dick and Tim fusing at this age is going to be hard to maintain and usually end up unstable- Tim’s hero worship means he doesn’t see himself on Dick’s level or able to contribute well to the fuse, which puts a lot of the strain on Dick and ends up unbalancing the whole thing.

validation sentence meme ; accepting ; @daringyoungman       “You’re smarter than you realize.” (daringyoungman)

“what makes you think I don’t know I’m smart?“ he should be more offended than he feels at the moment. but dick knows more than he lets on, and jason is sure that he either read the file, asked bruce or perhaps, was just as good as B was to read jason and his emotions. it didn’t took an expert to realize he was very reactive. “and yet, you don’t let me make your choices, man. or bruce back home. how can i be so smart and yet none of you trust me?“ it’s all a cycle. they want him to be the leader and yet, he never lead. the leader in everyone’s eyes was dick. back home, batman led. never robin.
