AI Is Really Showing It's Racism.

I recently saw a post that said Charles doesn’t have anger issues, just trauma, and something about it rubbed me the wrong way. The point they were making was valid-ish, how anger isn’t the core part of his character and his anger comes from how messed up his childhood is, but the way they said it painted anger as this evil and vile thing, which is incredibly harmful to people who do struggle with it.

No, Charles’ trauma is not his core, but it does make up a large part of how he interacts with life (death). Anyone who has been through a lot of trauma will tell you that it colours every aspect of your life, and it takes time to work through it. Charles’ anger is not a bad thing, he should be allowed to be angry to let out everything he keeps inside, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t struggle with that anger.

He grew up in a violent household, that affects someone. He has a complicated relationship with anger, and that means he pushes it down until he snaps. That’s an anger issue. That doesn’t mean he’s a bad person, he’s probably the kindest person in the show (besides maybe Niko).

Anyway, I mean no hate to the person whose post I saw, I just felt the need to address it. Our society treats anger as if it is an evil trait (see Edwin’s reaction. That was extreme, he says. That’s how people view anger, and it’s wrong), and to see Charles struggle with his anger issues but ultimately be such a good person is very gratifying for those of us that also struggle in similar ways. Maybe someone smarter than me can put it better, but I needed to get this out.

Charles Rowland has anger issues, and that’s okay

At this point I just refuse to believe Charles is not inlove with Edwin.

Like besides the fact he looks at him like he's the sun and stars and everything in the universe and all of that; it's so in character for Charles to fall for the first boy that ever showed him kindness. The first person that was ever nice to him, made him feel safe, cared for him as he died. After the way they met?? Of course Charles will bloody fall for Edwin, how couldn't he?

That's so in character of him.

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.

If someone knows what comics this panels are from please let me know I'm searching for this comics

The last panel is of Talia Al Ghul, it looks like a fun story.

If anyone has any other Talia recs I would love to get some as well!

I downloaded most of these from Pinterest/ TikTok or places I don't remember so I have no idea where they are from.

If someone knows where any of these are from please tell me I would be very grateful thank you.

Sorry for my bad English, English is not my native language.

FUCK YEAH I AGREE WITH YOU!

SHILOH WAS SO FRICKING GOOD.

It made me laugh, it made me cry, it's the best cops piece of media I ever saw/read.

SHILOH IS FRICKING AWESOME AND THAT CLIFFHANGER WAS FRICKING ILLEGAL. I'm going crazy because of it.

I need Shiloh to continue so bad!

okay i feel like i have to explain myself to all the nevermore lovers out there that I ABSOLUTELY ADORE NEVERMORE i just have a very very VERY strong emotional attachment to shiloh and its my absolute favourite

This is a low shot, but can someone beta my dead boy detectives fic? (Painland fic, it was supposed to be focused on Charles but I also drifted a bit with Edwin's pov on him)

My beta coincidentally can't right now for reason I'm very much amused by, I just really want to post the fic sometimes during tomorrow (the day starts soon in my country) *on my birthday*(!!!!) so I want to finish it fast.

It's not finished right now but it's mostly done and I will love to get some advices, I'll finish it first thing tomorrow probably if I can.

Edit: it's just with 3,951 words now, after I'll finish though it will probably be a few hundreds passed 5,000 so there is that too. It's not an extremely long fic, it's a relatively short one really.

Edit 2/ Update: posted a snippet!

you're awesome ❤️❤️❤️ love you

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

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

Dear Netflix,

I need at least 5 more seasons of Dead Boy Detectives. If you do that bullshit of cancelling a perfect show after 1 or 2 or even 3 seasons, I will become physically ill and cannot be held responsible for my actions.

Thank you.

If Charles and Edwin weren't ghosts what other supernatural creatures do you think they'd be

I think Charles would either be a werewolf or a vampire and I think Edwin would be a siren because he managed to seduce four men without even trying

Sorry for taking time to respond, I debated on answering that.

Using this ask to answer this question myself.

I personally don't agree. Edwin is more than his sexuality for me. Personally it feels reductive to me just perceived his character all about his sexuality like that, George said so himself Edwin's journey was so much more than just sexual awakening they were careful writing Edwin they wanted to show it's so much more than just the sexual part.

I personally think it would way funnier if he will be just some random fantasy creature with accidental powers of attraction, and he has no idea how that's happening. Or just like in the show randomly attracting creatures without any actual reason and has no idea how this shit keeps happening to him everyone are sure he's a siren or that he has seductive powers but he's just some random guy.

Regarding to what he would be, I want to call him a fairy for funsies but as a serious answer I would say he would be an elf. Not sure if they have elves but they have fairies and all sort of other fantasy magical creatures so far so why not.

Regarding to Charles, sorry I'm a bit uncomfortable with your answer as well. I feel like making the poc character a creature known for animalistic feral behaviour is stereotypical and harmful to brown people. Jayden is part black, making the black character/actor of the group the animalistic creature makes me feel uneasy, it's a bit problematic. Especially that it's European folklore, if anything animalistic he would be something from Indian or Jamaican folklore.

And I don't feel like those creatures are a good choice for him anyway. Werewolves and vampires are often known for being feral and intense and hard to control, but I don't feel like it's Charles. To me it feels like saying Charles is just his strong emotions and intense behaviour that are directly caused by his trauma. He was obviously at his darkest point when he beat the Night Nurse (and he justifiedly did so), but that's not necessarily his true self. He's so much more than just his trauma and I don't want to reduce him to behaviour that happened at his lowest point.

Charles doesn't have anger issues or intense behaviour, he's just traumatized kid and he let's his emotions out.

I know, in society that teaches boys to repress any emotional vulnerability it's a real shocker. But Charles is really just a sweet broken boy in my eyes. He's a very gentle and loving person.

Even though wolves are protective, they're still very possessive and known for being feral, rough, aggressive. I don't feel like it's Charles he's not that wild.

Honestly, I don't know what he would be. A fairy possibly? A nephilim (descendant of angels or something angelic whatsoever)? Maybe a dream? Like one of the dreams from Dream of the Endless realm. And then going rouge with Edwin. Maybe also an elf? He could be a lot of stuff.

Anyway yeah, sorry about that, I just had a lot of thoughts about that subject I wanted to express.

Of course anyone can have any opinion they want, unless it's directly harmful there's no right and wrong in holding opinions, I just explained why personally I feel a bit uncomfortable agreeing with those choices and I hc other stuff instead myself. It's all just personal opinions, how I perceive the characters myself since you sent me that ask probably asking for my opinion. Hope that helps!

Edit: damn I didn't notice how long it turned out sorry about that.

I do love to think about all three versions of the dbda meeting but one thing I find extra funny is the concept of them fighting, like physically

with Charles: comic Charles would not last three seconds I’m sorry, if he wasn’t dead he’d die, we didn’t see much of doom patrol Charles but he seems pretty proficient with weapons so I’m guessing he and Netflix Charles would be evenly matched

with Crystal: honestly depends on the day, doom patrol Crystal could wack them with a shovel, Netflix Crystal could beat them with her bare hands and one of comic Crystal first actions is to burn down her school with a Molotov cocktail and chase a demon with knives, id give it to any of them tbh

but Edwin??? I’m sorry it goes to the twelve year old without question, the others are getting bodied, not even accounting the lightning spell that scrappy little shit would rugby tackle them to the ground and start beating, Charles would have to pull him off, maybe even two Charles’
