[After Alfred left his wealth to Dick]
Dick: You all get something, so fire away.
Tim: Dick, your friendship is gift enough for me.
Damian: Friendship is crap. I want a Ducati Monster 821.
Dick: Alright, Damian gets a motorcycle.
Jason: Oh cool, I want a fast sports car.
Dick: Come on, you can be honest.
Jason: I want old, expensive books. I'll send you a list.
Dick: There you go.

I think the idea of recency in media is relative to the medium. For a video game, ten years ago is ancient; for a TV show, ten years ago is a bit old; for a novel, ten years ago is piss-all – and at this point you may suspect you've spotted a pattern, whereby how old a particular piece of media needs to be to qualify as dated scales with the age of the medium, but not so: webcomics are younger than any of them, yet a webcomic from ten years ago is probably still on the same story arc.

"‘Are you injured, sir?’
I think he was swearing, but am not certain; however, he was pronouncing some formula which prevented him from replying to me directly."

"But I..." starts Obito.
"Zip it," Kakashi wills Obito's mouth to shut. "Now go."
I love how the fandom has gotten excited about Kakashi edo-tenseing Obito! ❤️
While everybody's discussing the possible sick angst of it (and a bit of fun, too), my brain has supplied some outright crack..... I'm incorrigible xD
Thank you @malifiquemakes @hairybeardtongue @cool-thymus and @badninken for the new brainrot 🤭

I find it so funny how adaptations and pop culture for Frankenstein feel the need to paint “Dr. Frankenstein” as either a batshit crazy old man or a hot mentally unstable guy in his 30s, when in reality Victor Frankenstein in the original novel is just a sickly gay autistic teenager, who does definitely not have a doctorate, written by a 17-year-old goth girl who created the genre of science fiction.
It’s just so funny to me how pop culture is just like, “yeah, Dr. Frankenstein, the ‘ooOoh my peers criticised my science but I’ll show them!’ And ‘it’s alive!’ guy.” when in reality Victor Frankenstein just shows up to class fully “uhm, achtually 🤓☝️” style, then proceeds to rant about his boyfriend best buddy and how hot and amazing he is for pages and pages and pages. What peers? His classmates who probably just know him as “oh, that one.”??? The man is a twink who dropped out of university and due to his avoidance of consequences (not his “whining”, bad character analysis, I see you) by the end he’s driven himself so far to his own demise that he’s just an absolute sopping wet cat of a man. Stop trying to age him up at the beginning or make him hotter or “more mature”, the public deserves to know this twink like we do. And please stop making the creature an inarticulate mess with literally no character to him whatsoever, give us our edgy “i just read this Bible fanfic and Satan is just like me fr” lad we know and love

Dream of the Endless
I started reading The Sandman over the holiday and I'm obsessed and needed to get this out of my head.
I took some artistic liberties with him but I feel that's fitting of his character since his appearance in the comic is so fluid and ever-changing.

I'd always kind of held out hope that Homestuck's popularity would help to revive interest in the epistolary novel as an art form, and while it did turn out to be very influential, practically none of what it's inspired has carried on its format. Right now I'm hoping the popularity of Dracula Daily might have the same effect!
