#roy 2003

[geneticdriftwood]

roy’s whole pitch to dick at the start of outsiders is so fucking funny when you actually think about it. bc it’s like:

dick: I can’t be on a team again, I won’t lead friends and family into danger anymore!

roy: cool cool of course man, no problem! it’ll just be strangers and coworkers this time. no deep emotional bonds, I promise! ignore the fact that you’re one of the people I love most in the world and we’ve been family to each other for half our lives and I’m creating this team specifically to help and support you

dick: seems legit, I’m in

Game night. Somebody's a poor loser.

This is some weird mixture of modern UA mixed with brotherhood and 2003

It's very messy because I wanted to make something and be okay with it being messy

Teen Titans/Outsiders Secret Files (2003) — Roy leaving voicemails for Dick after Donna Troy’s death

Identity Crisis (2004) #7 — Dick leaving voicemails for Tim after Jack Drake’s death

#just um. thinking abt these again. and how they occur so close together. in canon within months by publishing within a year. and they’re soo #the stuff Roy says on the rest of the page is also good but the top part alone paired better with identity crisis so. #dick grayson #tim drake #bonds: I knew it was you #donna troy #jack drake #roy harper #heroesriseandfall #bat mental health #outsiders (2003) #identity crisis (2004)

#i could write several essays on their relationships #currently reading #outsiders 2003 #dick grayson #dc #dc comics #roy harper

[allovesthings]

Outsiders (2003) in a nutshell:

Dick: Donna is dead my entire life is sorta falling apart and I'm going to isolate myself and never be on a team again because of my grief.

Roy:

Also Roy: Here is our emotional support team that you will get attached to because you not getting attached to a team is kinda laughable.

Also: ✨ homoerotic subtext ✨

#outsiders (2003) #dickroy #dick grayson #roy harper #nightwing #arsenal #red arrow #dc comic #dc comics #some other things happened but imo Roy and Dick are just the best things about this run (just read the first 25 issues)

I am obsessed with the way Mustang just took over the role of Ed and Al’s dad. He took one look at those boys and went “oops guess im a father now” whether he was aware of it or not.

“It’s been awhile since we saw each other… why don’t we have a cup of tea?”

HE MISSES THEM AND WANTS TO HAVE TEA WITH EDWARD TO TALK ABOUT THINGS. THIS MAN IS LITERALLY A FATHER.

AND THE WAY HE JUST?? SETS UP MEETINGS WITH PEOPLE TO HELP ED??? (Yes, even though Tucker is a horrible person, he potentially had a lot of information that could’ve been very useful to Edward. And Mustang wasted absolutely no time in helping him.)

AND THE WAY HE SENDS HAVOC TO GO PICK THEM UP. HE LITERALLY PULLED THE “Sorry I’m busy and I can’t pick up my kids can you go get them for me”

#roy adopted the elrics the second he picked ed up by the shirt whether he knew it or not #and team mustang definitely adopted them the second the stepped foot into the office #if youre out here saying roy isnt a father figure to ed you’re lying to yourself #and havoc is definitely giving older brother #edward elric #alphonse elric #roy mustang #jean havoc #ed elric #al elric #colonel mustang #fma #fullmetal alchemist #fmab #fullmetal alchemist 2003 #fma edward #fma 03 #fma:b #fma 2003 #fma manga #fma manga panels #manga pics #manga

for me its roy’s “everyone I love will always leave me and i’ll never be worth staying for, but I can’t stop trying to hold on to them with everything I have” vs dick’s “I crave connection but I’m convinced I’m poisonous and that when people love me it gets them killed, so it’s unforgivably selfish of me to allow myself closeness”

there’s just something about a good superior-subordinate professional relationship built upon mutual hate...

#they are both children #edward elric #alphonse elric #roy mustang #fullmetal alchemist #also don't tag this romantically that shit is weird...... #this is a mutually despised relationship between superior and subordinate and it's hilarious #yeaaaa I'm still on this... sorry unwilling followers ily #my art has to be funny because the source material is fucking dark it doesn't need more angst #genuinely I subscribe to the idea that roy and ed care about eachother but I also subscribe to the idea that they'd rather die than say so #mutual respect is the closest they will get #alphonse is really becoming my fave ... like ed is my fave bc idk he has nice fashion and he's very sad but alphonse is just so !!!!!!! #fma 03 #fma 2003 #fmab #even tho that's not what I watch #you are still welcome here I guesssssss :-) #k bye #tw blood

Father, Daughter: Roy & Lian

“Go home, see Lian…if anyone knows who you really are, it’s your daughter.” — Grace Choi in Outsiders (2003) #33

Teen Titans/Outsiders Secret Files 2003

Image descriptions in alt text are also copied below.

A comic panel from Titans (1999) #30, showing a green-lit memory of Roy Harper smiling as he looks down at his baby Lian in his arms. Beyond him, Jade Nguyen looks at them warmly.

A comic page from Outsiders (2003) #45 showing Roy Harper as Arsenal with Lian in pink pajamas and a heavy-set man who was babysitting. Roy holds Lian up in the air with his arms and says, “And helloooo, little squeaker!” Lian says, “Daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy!!” Roy pulls her in to rest his forehead against hers, holding her wrist as she says, “Y’know what, y’know what--today Nicole and Zach and Ashley and me and Peter and me went to the ac-rarian.” Still smiling, Roy corrects, “Aquarium.” He sets Lian on the floor and they look over, smiling, at the babysitter. Lian continues, “And there were penguins!! Little penguins! Lots of Penguins! And we stayed with the penguins until Omar said we had to go because we had to go home--” Omar the babysitter says, “They were closing.” Lian turns to the TV and presses her hands against the blank screen, saying, “But we came home and watched March of the Penguins--” Omar holds up four fingers, grins at Roy, and says, “Four times, but I skipped past the bad parts.” Roy says, “Thank you.” Lian grabs Roy’s leg and hangs off it joyfully, saying, “And Omar said we could go back to the ac-rarium--” Roy corrects, “Aquarium,” but Lian doesn’t skip a beat before continuing, “on Saturday and you could come with us, and then I’m gonna sleep over Ashley’s!”

A comic panel from Titans (1999) #15 showing Lian sitting on Roy’s shoulders, smiling and waving with one hand to someone out of frame as Roy holds onto her feet to keep her steady. In the background is a cloudy blue sky and the rocky spires of Oljato-Monument Valley in northeastern Arizona.

A comic panel from Titans (1999) #25 showing Nightwing (Dick), Tempest (Garth), Flash (Wally), and Arsenal (Roy) sitting around a campfire at night. Other speech bubbles have been cut off, but Roy is saying, “Still don’t see why I couldn’t bring Lian. She loves camping.”

A comic panel from Titans (1999) #19 showing Lian and Roy in Titans Tower as Flash/Wally is rushing over. There’s a blanket fort and boxes next to Lian. Roy is standing with a cane and has a white cast all the way up to his left thigh. Lian points up at him with a smile as she says, “You may start the campfire, lieutenant.” Roy salutes, his hand touching the brim of his backwards red baseball cap, and says, “Sir, yes, sir!” Lian only reaches his waist in height. Wally is saying something as he rushes in but his speech bubbles have been blanked out.

Two comic panels from Justice League of America (2006) #11 in a realistic but sketchy art style, focused in on Roy’s face which has a few bleeding cuts and his face is scrunched in pain. He’s in his Red Arrow suit. He looks up to say, “Mari, I keep a picture of Lian taped…hhhh…taped inside my quiver. It’s taking everything within me to keep from pulling it out and saving goodbye. Dig. Please.” He closes his eyes and winces with strain.

A comic panel from Outsiders (2003) #19 showing Lian’s bed from above with golden evening light shining in. Roy as Arsenal is sitting on the bed with little Lian on his lap hugging his neck. His arms are wrapped around her, and his face is shadowed, looking haunted. Little movement lines indicate Roy and Lian may be shaking. Lian’s room is filled with shades of pink and brown, and her pillows are covered in several large stuffed animals of various species.

A cropped comic page from Justice League of America (2006) #11 showing two sketchy panels surrounded by black. Roy is in his Red Arrow suit, trapped under bent metal, his skin splattered with blood. He’s nearly lying on his stomach barely holding himself up. Roy’s narration box says, “But with a prayer,” and out loud he says, “Lord, please watch over Lian--” The next panel zooms in a little but his face is still unclear. His narration box says, “And as I lose myself to the darkness--” Out loud, he continues, “--please keep her safe--” then his narration box continues, “--as the wet ceiling presses its foot against my head--”

A comic panel from Outsiders (2003) #20 showing Roy and Lian laying on a brown coach with their eyes closed. Lian’s head is resting on Roy’s chest, while his hands gently hold her elbow and back. A yellow narration box says, “They could stay close to home.”

A comic panel from Teen Titans/Outsiders Secret Files 2003 showing Roy and Lian hugging. Roy is in his Arsenal suit and his face is blocked from sight by Lian’s hair. Lian says, “Daddy, I don’t understand. Donna was your heart and you love her and now she’s become a ghost or something. How will your heart be happy?” Roy says, “Because, etai yazi, you’re my heart. And I love you.”
