I Feel Like People Forgot That Redemption Arc Doesn't Mean Making The Fans Forgive The Character.

Dead Boy Detectives's fanarts artists- where are all the fanarts of Charles wearing a skirt?

So many people are baffled by Alastor using the slang word tea.

I just want to mention this slang comes from African American Vernacular English, specifically originated from LGBTQ+ culture, black drag queens to be specific.

He's an African American queer person using a slang started by the African American queer community.

you're awesome ❤️❤️❤️ love you

🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵 awwwww! Thanks, I needed that <3🩵

Love you, corpse <3. Best cannibalistic corpse I know.

New fic posting!

Fandom: Dead Boy Detectives (TV show)

Pairing: Charles Rowland/Edwin Payne

Characters: Charles Rowland, Edwin Payne, briefly mentioned Crystal Palace.

Other tags: domestic fluff, cuddling & snuggling, boys in love, tooth rotting fluff, established relationship, talking about their relationship and more.

Description:

They adapt into their new relationship astonishingly fast.

They kiss- quite a lot, and hold hands, taking any excuse they can to be close to each other- grossing Crystal out from their lovesick behaviour sometimes, grinning and chuckling when she rolls her eyes in dismay at their open affectionate behaviour.

They are in love, completely and utterly besotted with each other. And while all this is absolutely wonderful, a question wouldn’t leave Edwin’s mind- what are they?

Edwin has questions about their relationship, he wants to find an official word with Charles call their new recent romantic relationship to make the romance part of their relationship official. Charles just seems keen on kissing his partner.

Perhaps they have also always simply been everything always all at once altogether anyway. So can one word truly fit?

I'm slowly starting to publish stuff more and more and I'm proud of me.

Wanna get on top of this now and say:

Remember in the Heartstopper fandom how the young actors got pressured and harassed to come out?

Let's all learn a lesson from that and absolutely NOT do that to the Dead Boy Detectives cast (or any other going forward).

I have mentioned in my previous post how everyone related to the biological bat family is Jewish, but I need to talk a moment about Damian Wayne's aunts.

Because this boy has 5 Jewish aunts. And not just from Bruce's side.

Let's review them, alright?

1. One of the most famous out of them, Kate Kane aka Batwoman. The Jewish icon and Bruce's cousin. (Once removed or-something still counts!)

2. Beth Kane or Red Alice, Kate's twin. She's his aunt as well, the same as Kate.

3. Bette Kane, aka flamebird, another cousin of Bruce. Also shares the same Jewish blood.

Just wait, now is the more interesting part I've been waiting for:

4. Nyssa Raatco. (Very different from the Arrowverse version).

Talia's older sister. Daughter of Ra's Al Ghul and her Jewish mom. A badass Jewish Arab assassin, and one of my favorite Jewish aunts of Damian.

And the last one might be more controversial, because I know she's *technically* not family but still

Harey Quinn is the 5 Jewish aunt of Damian I'LL DIE DEFENDING IT.

My source?

AUNTIE QUINN!?!!

DC fans don't get mad at me I know Harley is not batfamily I just think she's an aunt figure to Damian. She's not part of the whole batfam, she's his aunt exclusively. She's Damian's fifth Jewish aunt fight me.

Yap I'll see myself out 🚪←🏃

Hey, DC-

You made such a big deal out of creating your first trans masc superhero.

Give him more than f%cking 3 comic appearances.

My personal headcanon for how Crystal was able to go through airplanes security but didn't know her full name even though she needs her ID and such for this stuff-

Guys. Come on. She 100% had multiple fake IDs, are you kidding me?

In the show we see her going to a bar in the first episode, where David catches her again when she's hiding at the bathroom, and we know she's not a legal adult.

Crystal is 100% the kind of girl that had a bunch of fake IDs. Be for real.

She probably didn't have her real one on her. David must've left it behind and used just the fake ones to get into places.

She probably hypnotized people in the airport with her powers to not look deep into them and let her go pass security. (Not my original headcanon but I've seen it somewhere and I agree with it).

She probably had some cash on her too at the start, for the flights and one week's rent (she tells Jenny she has rent on her when she comes in, and "you're the only room in town I can maybe afford". So she might've had some cash in the beginning (she got some clothes too, didn't she?) but it has probably ran out during the show).

The real question is why the hell did they need 3 plane flights *and* a ferry?? Maybe it was for a comical punch. But that's still a bit weird. And such a waste.

Maybe the fact she didn't have all of her identification papers is what made them have to take a more complicated route.

This hold up for sure made Edwin get pissed too. He probably bitched about it to Charles the whole way.

Purity culture has a way of getting into fandom spaces with a strength that's genuinely concerning. Especially in these times we're living, where our very own existences are being threatened by powerful people creating laws based on conservativism and puritanism.

I find it ironic (and very telling) that we're so ready to clutch our pearls when it comes to sexual content, but not anything else.

Dead Boy Detectives fandom, I'm talking to you.

Why are we so scandalized by the mere mention of sex? By people writing or creating sexually explicit art? Why do we think that younger fans of the show are not ready to hear simple words describing sexual activities in a neutral way, or discuss sensitive subjects such as sex related activities?

When I see people being censored or criticized under this "protect the children" rhetoric, I ask myself:

How were these the same fans who watched an entire show which main themes are hate crimes, queer subjects, violence and death, and that also heavily presents sexual assault, family annihilation, colorful and frequent curse words and many more real life, serious elements?

If you are a fan of this show and you were able to understand and connect with even a portion of its canonical content, then I'd assume that you're ready to have a conversation about it, or watch others talk about it. And yet I continue to see people wanting to keep others from conversations that are not any more explicit or sexual or serious in nature than what we see in the show.

Do not lie to yourselves, are we really concerned about other people's safety? Or are we performing some form of shallow wanna-be activism?

Are we celebrating a (cancelled) queer show, or deciding that some queer experiences are more appropriate than others?

See the way our fandom trends reflect what's happening in our very real lives. Do not protect the fake values of conservatism, they want all of us just as equally silent (or dead).

This is my official request for Dead Boy Detectives prompts!

Preferably about Edwin and Charles. Especially more about Charles but not necessarily.

I just finished my fanfic and I'm desperate for new ideas, I want to keep writing about them.

Comments, ask box, and dm, are all open.

Any prompt would be appreciated🫶
