#Something about Rorschach just screams loneliness and Kirk feels it HARD living on his own now

🕯️ Mainly Man-Bat but also curious what Kirk would think of passing by a certain homeless redhead holding an ominous sign?
Send me 🕯️ to hear my character's inner thoughts about your character.
Tumblr media
Creature with a face like stormclouds. It is no human but walks amongst the many preying upon those who foolishly believe themselves to be predators. Those humans soon learn better, at least those who do manage to survive, their blood spilling in the wake of the Rorschach's fury. They think hiding behind thick walls will make it go away but we know better, that it will simply find other ways to catch them instead because it is a true predator, not cowering prey like they are. Normally competition would not be tolerated but Rorschach is a presence we will accept. We understand each other. We are the same, solo hunters in a city full of prey.

In another time, another life perhaps, Kirk could see himself in the homeless man's shoes. It didn't take much for one's life to turn upside down, to get into things that might have been better off being left alone but it's hard not to feel some sort of sympathy towards the older man. People brushed past him quickly as though he did not exist, keeping their distance but to those who cared to look closer, it was plain to see life had not been kind to the redhead. Had he always lived in Gotham? Kirk was unsure. He often visited the park, during the day even to feed the birds when his research was getting too much to handle and saw many people but never exactly talked to anybody; Gotham was a big city after all and wasn't always the friendliest either. The man didn't look so friendly either, but it was foolish to judge him soley from appearance. Plenty of people looked just fine, incredibly handsome or beautiful only to commit the most heinous acts whenever the sun went down. He should know, he read the paper everyday, with something terrible going on or having been prevented by Batman. Perhaps he should go over and say hello, to talk to the mysterious redhead and find out what he meant with his sign. He might have been just as lonely as Kirk felt, having one less person in his life nowadays.
