i think it’s interesting how natalia’s written as basically pretty suicidal, she essential has almost no regard for her own life especially after feeling like she has no control and way to stop the death of the night. the comics don’t do so, but it would be interesting to explore it as a bit of a response to loss, she has lost a lot in a very short amount of time - her father (who was her only family left essentially) and her “normal” when she became sensitive to light. i’m sure she has always loved the night as an astronomer, but her obsession with the night must only have increased drastically when she lost all ability to go out in the day, and i don’t think she completely HATES the day, it is never stated and she has once brought jason out to walk in the park, a choice of activity that was perhaps something she enjoyed before it became that much harder for her to do.
that is, until jason comes in to rescue her, and she suddenly has a change of heart and wants to live, even coming to regret her earlier action and thinking “she was a fool to welcome the first blow”
at the end, after nocturna has floated off on her hot air balloon and they are trying to escape the storm, jason yells at batman “don’t give up” and the he’s “gotta fight” because “jla and the outsideres need you” and “the world may need you”. do you think jason is yelling those things at bruce because he just saw nocturna essentially give up and let anton kill her and he just can’t lose another parental figure, especially if they just choose to give up their lives too (i don’t know if the writers thought that much about it, but i certainly did)
