"I Swear I Won't Hurt You Anymore", Nigga Ur Literally Choking Him.

does anybody else feel like the problem with current batman writers is that they're writing male power fantasies and they have no concept of who they're writing for? because idk anybody who wants to read about bruce being an abusive dad, it's depressing. it's sad. it's NOT batman. it's something completely different from the batman i remember. like they're not writing a hero, they're writing a narcissist with control issues who has wrapped himself in the cloak of being a good person. and i cant look at a man whose supposed to be a father and a mentor, reguarly choosing to abandon his kids, dump his responsibilities on the one kid who wants nothing more than to make his own choices, and beating "morals" into one....it's all wrong. you cant be a good person, a HERO, and consistently choose inflicting long lasting physical, mental, and emotional scars on people you call family.

ACESPEC ORIGINAL CHARACTERS EVENT FOR ACE WEEK 2023!

ACE WEEK is from 22nd to 28th October this year!! That's around the corner btw.

Back in the old Twitter days, I used to summon acespec creators to join me in a thread of their own acespec OCs with the goal of meeting more ace creators, their OCs, their projects and making friends! I thought it would be a great idea to bring the event to Tumblr this time... WITH NEW RULES!

So, during the ACE WEEK 2023, I want you to show the world your ACESPEC ORIGINAL CHARACTERS!

I want to see artwork of them, especially if it's made by you, and please add some cool info about them, it can be any silly detail, but I encourage you to talk about their asexuality and experiences, and it would be super interesting to know if your own asexuality affected the creation of the character. Tell us about their story, if they have any, and if they belong to a project you are working on. This will take place during the whole week, so no rush. I'll be reblogging pretty much everything with my side martaslavendergarden

RULES:

ABSOLUTE RESPECT. The asexual spectrum is full of different experiences, all valid. If I catch you trying to invalidate any creator or character, be sure I'll go John Wick. Also, I'm fucking tired of the invasion ace meme because I'm very punk and absolutely dislike any imperialist shit, so please, let's keep this event free of white supremacist shit. Thank you.

USE THE TAGS. Use the tags #acespecoc and #aceweek2023 so your post can be found!

LIKE AND REBLOG! This event's main goal is to find other acespec creators and not just make friends but also to create a cool community, so I encourage you to spread out your likes, cast reblogs and write some beautiful comments in the tags when reblogging.

Some questions you may have:

The identity of my OC is complex or tagless. SOUNDS COOL TO ME. Is their experience somewhere in the asexual spectrum? You can join the party and I encourage you to talk about it! I'm sure they'll be a super interesting character.

Marta, I have 500 acespec OCs. SAME. You can join all of the characters in one single post or make several of them and post them during the week, organise it yourself, no problemo.

Marta! I'm not an artist! But I have these cute picrews of my ace ocs. Can I participate in the event? ABSOLUTELY! Also, you can share the picrew you used just in case someone loves it and wants to make their OCs too.

Marta, I have this comic/book/whatever featuring my acespec OC. Can I unapologetically use this event to promote it? GO FOR IT.

Oh, Marta, I'm not acespec but I have this ace OC... Can I join the party anyway? THE MORE THE MERRIER! And I'm sure you'll learn a lot from other artists and their acespec OCs.

Marta, I have this ace headcannon of this particular character. Can I join the event? Not today, this event is only for YOUR ORIGINAL CHARACTERS created by yourself.

MARTA, I have this acespec OC I made in a videogame through character creation or whatever. Absolutely valid to me. Please provide a screenshot of your cutie and all their background story if you can.

I made this AI/NFTSHIT stuff. FUCK OFF.

Feel free to DM me if you have any doubts. Also, spread the word, I want to see many acespec OCs on Ace Week on this site!

Barbara: So where's this dog I keep hearing so much about?

Dick: Oh, he's right here.

Wally:

Jason: That's a grown-ass man.

Dick: Yeah he's a little old but hey, who said you can't teach old dogs new tricks. Ready? Watch this. Speak.

Wally: 'Sup bro.

Dick: Good boy!

Kory: Yeah he just spoke English. That's a grown— that's an actual human being.

Dick: Yeah, yeah I guess he kinda does have like that human-like personality.

Jason: 'Cause it's a fucking dude.

Kyle: I feel like we're drastically overlooking the fact that this is just a guy on all fours that you... keep in your house? Or...?

Dick: He's actually a rescue. Did I mention that?

Barbara: What does that even mean in this context?

Dick: It's a shame. I found him out wandering the streets all by himself one night so I took him in.

Wally: I was walking to class one day and he just grabbed me.

Barbara: Okay, what's your name, dude?

Dick: I call him Snowball.

Wally: It's actually Wally.

Roy: Okay so this is like some type of kink thing?

Wally: No he genuinely thinks I'm a dog.

Kory: Okay, even then, why are YOU going along with this?

Wally: Free rent, free food.

Kory: Still, dude, that can't be—

Wally: 401k matching, pension plan, dental coverage.

Roy: You get dental coverage?

Wally: Let me tell you, my canines have never looked so good.

Kyle:

Barbara:

Kory:

Jason:

Roy: Meow.

Dick: Daddy's little kitten.

Jason, leaving: Okay, fuck that.

Something about how Jason Todd’s core character trait is how he lost faith. He lost faith in Shiela, in Bruce, in the entire concept that someone else can care about him and actually have his best interests at heart.

Something about how Catholic priest Flashpoint Jason Todd is someone who has such intense faith, who trust so heavily in someone basically unprovable. Something about how without Bruce, without being Robin, it was his faith that was his core character trait.

Something about how being Robin and the life he was led into changed him in such a tragic and deep seeded way. I don’t know

This guide is only for dick, jason, tim, steph or damian. for everyone else youre on your own.

Now thank you all for your attention, please return next week on your lecture on how to differentiate between helena und cassie.

Edit: I update some slides here. <- made it worse

Arcane - Jinx vs Ekko fight

Do you think Batman ever put out a notice to the rogues like “hey guys it’s robin’s birthday tomorrow can you not do any crime so we can celebrate” and they were like. yeah ok

“The Batkids probably gave Dick so much shit when he first put on the Batsuit.” No. The Batkids all saw Dick in Bruce’s suit and all secretly felt nauseous about how wrong it looked. How wrong it felt.
