Not to Eric Border post on main but GOD I am thinking about Eric Border.

Eric/Batman (or Eric/Bruce too, really) is such a fascinating ship to me because there are just so many layers of complication going on.

Just the fact that Joker would be so torn about the whole thing - sort of pleased to have Batman’s attention but ultimately so heartbroken and jealous that it’s for someone so *mundane*, so *boring*, and of the course the fact that he can’t recognise him underneath the disguise is a new kind of melancholy.

To me Joker is just this sort of two dimensional creature that doesn’t seem to really exist when Batman doesn’t see him (he seems to vanish and live a normal life any time Batman isn’t Batman) so Eric Border is so fascinating because it’s him actively making *himself* into something flat and lifeless. And the fact that it’s his reaction to having his heart broken at the end of DoTF?

Idk man, this is totally incoherent but it’s SO fascinating to me.
