I wasn't going to post this, but then I remembered; what the heck. This is my blog. I rule these lands. Have my closeted lesbian Mrs. Dowd (whom I've named Beatrice) propaganda that I have been spouting for months. I made fanart once. I can radicalize this.
Mrs. Dowd, sitting on the couch: “I have been up since four in the morning going through articles and forums.”
Bernard, in a Pikachu onesie and having just woken up: “Oh.... That's nice. How did you get into my apartment?”
Mrs. Dowd, waving a hand: “Irrelevant. The doorman was incredibly weak-willed and I made a copy of your house keys the last time you came over. So, this pansexuality thing, it means you are romantically inclined towards whomever?”
Bernard: “Essentially? In simplest terms, I guess. Why?”
Mrs. Dowd: “In that case, it's just.... I don't get it.”
Bernard, stiffening: “Mom, I know yo–”
Mrs. Dowd: “Of all people; Timothy Drake? If you are attracted to women, and others, you wouldn't choose them instead? There are so many better options Bernard, I simply cannot fathom what you see in him that you cannot in others. I don't understand why you would ever choose a man over a woman if given the option.”
Bernard: ....🏳️🌈🧐
Somewhere, Nina Dowd sneezes.
