The Lost Titans in Canon: Rose and Eddie

Hello, friends! Are you ready to get your heart broken?

Rose and Eddie both joined the Titans during the 2006 One Year Later gap (when every DC book jumped one year ahead after Infinite Crisis) and first appeared on the team in #34 of the 2003 Teen Titans series. They're already buddies, at least enough to...hang out in the kitchen together, not facing each other and throwing oranges on the floor? This art is baffling:

What mind-bogglingly prudish teenager instituted that swear jar, let alone decided that "damn" was enough to qualify?

We later learn that Rose vouched for Eddie to get him on the team, apparently two seconds after having met him. Rose herself was on the team because Dick asked Tim to give her a chance.

Eddie is already protective of Rose, like when Cassie, uh...punches Rose hard enough to give her a nosebleed for the crime of being annoying.

Guys, you should...you should probably quit this team. I know it's just your first issue, but yikes.

Their second issue features a drunk Rose climbing into Tim's bed and trying to seduce him, and then Cassie showing up and everyone attacking everyone else, and then Marvin hitting on Cassie (I'm glad you're dead, Marvin), and it's pretty much just trash all around.

But it also features this moment:

Eddie has never recovered and NEITHER HAVE I.

Rose then confesses that she's afraid that the Titans will kick her off the team, since Tim doesn't really want her or Eddie around, just his real friends. (I could write a thesis on how Rose is afraid of being kicked out so she deliberately tries to provoke them into kicking her out, but this isn't the time.)

She hides it better, but Rose has never recovered from this, either.

Then Eddie gets hurt and Rose pulls they "Stay with me!" trope:

It has only been two issues! They're obsessed with each other!

But Rose warns him off:

Eddie continues to be ride or die for Rose, defending her when she's accused (falsely) of being a traitor to the team, and protecting her when his own dystopian future self shows up and tries to kill her. Also, Jaime joins the team and Eddie is wildly jealous of how much Rose seems to like him:

Rose 100% knows Eddie's right there and is doing this to make him jealous, btw. This is extremely explicit in the issue. She doesn't actually care about Jaime one way or the other (and Jaime tells her very clearly that he has a girlfriend).

Meet Rose Wilson! She has absolutely no idea how to cope with liking a sweet boy who is nice to her, so she spends an entire issue trying to make him jealous and making fun of him in a way that's genuinely mean! Oh, honey, no.

Between Rose blowing hot and cold, Tim and Cassie being just incredibly nasty to Eddie all the time for no reason, and the trauma of, you know, having sold his soul to the devil and being functionally orphaned and all, Eddie makes a very bad decision. He invites a bunch of civilian teens to Titans Tower, where they promptly run amuck. The Titans are furious, and Eddie is left feeling completely friendless and about an inch from being kicked off the team completely.

That's when he's approached by the Terror Titans, a team of teenage edgelords led by the Clock King, who DC was trying to make into a cool scary villain by having him *checks notes* fuck teenage girls and constantly murder people on-page as gorily as possible. This whole storyline is trying so, so hard to be cool and edgy but it's just incredibly tiresome.

Anyway Eddie recognizes that actually all these people suck, and refuses to join them and betray the Titans. So they kidnap him and Clock King proceeds to torture him.

Meanwhile, the Terror Titans attack Titans Tower. The only people there are Wendy and Marvin, who are non-combatants, and Rose. Rose defeats every member of the Terror Titans, gets Wendy and Marvin to safety, and then, beat to hell, walks back into Titans Tower to fight the Terror Titans again. Why?

THEY'VE GOT EDDIE.

Rose drags herself back into the Tower, hurt and bleeding, to beat Eddie's location out of the Terror Titans. It's such a good gender reversal of this trope, where the damsel in distress is an eldritch horror and the grizzled warrior coming to his rescue is a teenage girl. The execution of every single bit of this story is absolutely awful and unreadably stupid, but the idea in there is so good! Theoretically!

The Terror Titans manage to escape Rose's wrath, but Rose follows them to where Eddie is being kept: an underground cage fighting ring for captured teenage metas. The Teen Titans also realize what's happening and show up to rescue Eddie as well.

Rose saves Cassie's life and defeats Clock King, but Cassie is still like "Rose is crazy and dangerous and shouldn't be on the team" and Tim's like "Hm maybe you're right"...and Rose overhears.

Meanwhile, Eddie learns that Rose went apeshit when he was kidnapped, and is thrilled because maybe this means he has a chance! He shows up with flowers...

...and Rose is already gone. She's quit the team.

Rose is gone for about ten issues (she temporarily joins the Terror Titans, which is as unbearably stupid as you might imagine), and during that time, Eddie loses his powers and becomes just a regular guy. And then Rose makes her glorious return:

AND EDDIE LITERALLY SWOONS.

But Rose is not okay. She's becoming addicted to huffing adrenaline to enhance her precognitive abilities [insert eyeroll here]. Eddie, of course, is the one who notices:

I love that first panel in the last row. They've moved past the point where Rose can pretend she doesn't care about Eddie and Eddie can't tell the difference. The intimacy of that line (and that touch) - he knows her, and he's telling her so. UGH MY HEART.

Rose gets into another fight with Cassie, and it convinces her that she doesn't belong on the Titans. And, she argues, neither does Eddie, who has no powers and no training.

AND THEN THIS PAGE HAPPENS AND I HAVE NEVER RECOVERED:

Rose leaves. Eddie stays. And in the very next storyline, he dies. YOU SHOULD HAVE GONE WITH HER, EDDIE!

I'm not going to recount Eddie's death because I've done that already, but during this time, Rose had a backup solo feature in the Teen Titans book, and it included her hallucinating conversations with various characters. The last hallucination is of Eddie:

The next page is his last line: "...but that doesn't mean you'll never get another chance someday..." She doesn't know he's already dead. I WEEP. I WEEP ETERNALLY.

And that's pretty much the end of the canon Rose/Eddie story. Rose returned to the Titans in the next issue, but there's no scene of her learning or acknowledging Eddie's death - iirc she never mentions him again, which honestly I feel like is pretty in character. Her grief is private.

The comics Rose and Eddie appear in together are objectively awful. But somehow there's still a really compelling and heartbreaking little almost-romance in there, and now that Eddie's back in canon, I'd love to see someone at DC remember this couple, because they are so, so good together. (And imo much more interesting that Jason and Rose, who are functionally the same person and work better as two halves of the Eddie Bloomberg Defense Squad.)

Anyway if you also think they're neat, I wrote a sequel to The Lost Titans about them! You should read it: Five Couches Eddie (Tried to) Crash on After He Was Rescued from Hell (and One Time He Went Home).

Hey! What do you think about friendship between Roy Harper and Jason Todd? I'm not a big comics nerd, but recently started diving deeper into the dc fandom and reading more comics, I really enjoyed their friendship, but I read a post somewhere another day saying that their friendship doesn't really make sense because they didn't really interact before rhato and have a significant age gap... and even had a fight or something? Just was wondering if you could recommend comics that give more info on their relationship? And what's you personal opinion?

Hello friend! Thanks for the ask.

I have to warn that I have some pretty strong but kind of ignorant feelings about this (I don't know much about Roy harper pre n52)

So comic wise- yes, they're friendship was very random. Pre n52, my very limited knowledge of Roy is that he was a justice league member, did drugs, had a baby with Cheshire named Lian, and was a member of the og teen titans with Dick as Speedy. Jason was robin and then redhood, but the redhood who was definitely more antihero and not basically a batfam member like he is now. Then out of nowhere in RHATO, jason is talking about how Roy is the best friend he could ask for with absolutely no context whatsoever. The Outsiders #46 is the only pre-n52 panel with the two of them together:

In terms of age gap, I'm pretty sure jason and Roy have about the same age gap as jason and dick. But the age gap is something that should bother anyone. I am 20, but most of my friends from work and school are in their mid 20s and even 30s. We get along great and age hasn't been something that has ever impacted our friendship. In terms of a fight, I don't know much about that. They had a falling out at the end of redhood/arsenal, but they seemed fine in RHATO rebirth.

For recommendations, all their comics together are pretty shit tbh. But All RHATO new 52 has them together, but it sucks ass. Redhood/arsenal should be skipped. RHATO rebirth annual 2 is probably the best you're gonna get next to the webtoon.

Okay, my personal opinion, I HATE Roy and jason. I can't stand Roy Harper from what I've seen. And even what I've seen pre-n52, he's kind of a dick.

In New 52, I know his character was stripped from him to make jason look good and that's a whole other discussion, but, he's a fucking idiot. He's selfish, impulsive, and he started listening to Jason's phone. And he was even worse in redhood/arsenal, SO SELFISH and so controlling and he would make decisions, including pimping jason out as a rent-a-hero and spending all their money, without any discussion but couldn't understand why he would be upset about that. He's just an asshole. I have no idea why he and jason would be friends at all. I despise JayRoy. Its so toxic.

Anyway, thanks for the ask!

I talk about them too much so many melinoe and hypnos posts or just hypnos anything will be under #meltonin… NOT FUCKING ROMANTIC, they’re family.

Anyway, I think the gods who are aiding Mel are like very supportive and helpful in her crusade against the titans but most of them are incredibly confused the moment she starts insisting on helping Hypnos with the same level of objective importance as defeating chronos.

Like some just nod and try to wish her back to the task at hand but a lot of the Olympians and other gods period are like ? “That sucks I guess but one meesly god isn’t more important then your family, princess.”

And Mel just looks at them so lost like ? “He is my family.”

#hades melinoe #the funnies #hades hypnos #melatonin 💤🐠 #she’s a weird fish to me and he’s a weird sheep they’re so real #do not tag as ship #I will kill u die

Tony has always been adamant that he needs to treat me like a goddess, and that, apparently, entails taking me to fancy restaurants at least once a week. That, and buying me accessories and clothes worth more than my entire hometown, all on a whim. I’ve tried to get him to stop, telling him that I don’t need the actual sapphire necklace Rose wore on the Titanic. Luckily, he’s starting to let up, slowly. In his own way. He’s still buying me presents for seemingly no reason, but they’re actually a reasonable price, now.

Usually, anyway. He insisted on taking me to a fancy restaurant that just opened in an area I never would have expected a Fancy Restaurant to be. He also insisted on buying me an evening gown specifically for the restaurant. I initially asked him why I couldn’t just wear any of the dozens of elegant evening gowns he’s gotten me thus far, and his response was just that this one “needed to be special.”

Now I can see why he specifically chose a dress with double leg slits that each reach up to practically my waist. I can also see, now, why he told me not to bother wearing panties underneath.

Tony’s sitting diagonally behind and beside me, his right arm curled around my body, resting on the booth’s seat just next to my hip. My leg is hooked over his and the front of the gown he’d bought specifically for tonight is laying over my other leg. My pussy is fully exposed to the entire restaurant as Tony plunges his middle and ring fingers in and out of me fast enough that the lewd squelching noise is almost louder than the moans he’s pulling out of me.

Apparently this restaurant is specifically for rich patrons who have an exhibitionism kink. My cheeks almost glow with how red they are, not only because of Tony’s assault on my insides, but because I can feel all the pairs of eyes on us, on me. I can feel so many if the other patrons staring at my dripping cunt as Tony shifts his hand just enough to position his thumb over my clit.

“Fuck, Tony!” I moan out in a high pitched voice when he starts to roughly rub over my sensitive bud and dually licks, sucks, and bites on my neck.

“You feel that, baby? All these people appreciating how fucking gorgeous you are and how spectacular all your noises are.” Tony mutters directly into my ear, his hot breath fanning over me and making my thighs shake.

“Fuck- fuck- yes- yes, yea. Yea, I fuckin’ feel ‘em.” I manage to whine out as he speeds up. His other hand moves to brush feather-light touches over my hip, up over my waist, until finally, he can reach into the strapless top of the dress and pull my tit out. The air is cool enough, despite the heat if sex flying all throughout the air from all the patrons alike, that my nipple pebbles immediately and Tony takes that in stride, palming my breast before squeezing my nipple in the juncture of his fore and middle fingers.

“You’re doing so good, baby, so so fucking good.” Tony presses more kisses to my neck and jaw. “Look up, baby, c’mon.” He prompts me to lift my head from where I have it angled down to watch him thrust in and out of my sopping cunt with low lidded eyes. I look up, as he instructed, and I can see men fucking up into the women accompanying them, some dually working their fingers into another. There are some men closer to us than the rest that are staring lustfully at us, a couple have a woman or two bobbing on their cocks.

Watching the men thoroughly enjoy their company reminds me of my own position. My legs drawn open with my womanhood fully on display with my fiancé’s fingers fully buried inside. My left hand is drawn back and clutching at Tony’s shirt, desperately trying to ground myself from the mind numbing pleasure he’s pounding into me, with just his fingers. My right is clutching on the clear glass table in front of us, my knuckles white as paper.

“F-fuck.. Oh, god, Tony, oh fucking god yes!” I saw a few couples look up at us and most of them continued to watch even as they sped up their own acts of pleasure. “Oh, fuck, yea..” I let out in a high pitched whine, the adrenaline coursing through my veins pumped even harder when I made eye contact with a man sitting parallel to us, fisting the hair of the woman choking on his dick. Looking down, I saw her bouncing on a dildo suctioned to the floor, the moulded balls having the restaurant’s logo printed boldly. The sight made me clench, feeling every part of Tony’s fingers pressed against my walls. The feeling had me nearly screaming as he curled his fingers, pressing directly into my g-spot.

“Fuck, Tony! You really got yourself quite the catch, huh?” One of the servers walked up, shamelessly palming himself through his tight black pants.

“Oh, you know it, Thomas..” Tony smirked, resting his chin on my shoulder as he smugly spoke with the man he, apparently, knew, not once halting his movements. Both his hands continued to pleasure me, his thumb pressing tight, hard circles on my clit while his other hand continuously groped my breast and tweaked my nipple, “Go on and say ‘Hi’ baby, this is an old friend of mine. He’s actually the one that told me about this place. You wanna thank him, sweetheart?” Tony prompted me, smug as ever as he knew I could barely get out his name through my moans.

“H-Hel-lo.. Fuck- Oh god- T-thank you.. Thank you!!” I called out, my back arching when Tony simultaneously curled his fingers into my g-spot, pinched and pulled my nipple, pressed harder against my clit, and sucked right on the most sensitive part of my neck. My orgasm ripped through me, making my vision go white, all my muscles tense up, and cum gush from my pussy.

When he felt my orgasm, Tony immediately began thrusting his fingers again with a new vigor, moving his hand up and down as well as he made me squirt. My fluids landed on the table in front of us, all over the smooth seat, and drenched his hand and part of his sleeve, as well as over parts of our clothing I couldn’t get myself to pay any mind to.

“Oh, fuuuck, baby. Oh that was gorgeous. So. So. Fucking. Gorgeous.” He punctuated each word with sloppy kisses to my neck and hard thrusts into my spent cunt.

“Oh, god, Tony. You really got lucky with her… My wife could never squirt like that..” The man, Thomas, I vaguely remember, ushered in an airy tone and pumped his cock that I haven’t a clue when he’d even pulled it out. He bit his lip and watched as my juices dripped from the seat and table onto the floor, almost looking like he wanted to lick it up.

“Oh, you have no idea, Thomas, no idea.” My fiancé smirked at his friend as he pulled his hand away from my overstimulated folds and began licking his fingers clean. He gave my breast one last squeeze before releasing it and haphazardly sliding my dress back up over it.

Looking away from his friend and cleaning his saliva from his hand on the restaurant’s napkin, he reached his right hand up and turned my head with it to face him. He pressed a loving kiss to my lips as opposed to the lustful, wanton kiss I was expecting, though the lewdness was still present when I could taste myself in his mouth.

“Mind bringing us the check, Thomas? I think my fiancée, here, would prefer we continue at home.” Tony spoke without looking at his friend, too busy looking in my eyes with love that overpowered the wafting of sex and lust around us.

“Sure thing, Tones, and, uh, make sure you give her another good one for me..” Thomas said with a smirk audible in his voice as he zipped himself back up.

As he left and Tony leaned in to press kisses to my cheek and up to my temple, I sighed happily as I chanced another look around the room. There I saw men all around us panting, seemingly from their own release, a few of their women with equally heavy breaths. Some of them, each, were still looking over at us and marveling at the glistening pool of my orgasm still dripping down. A woman bouncing on the man’s dick, she was with, was watching me as she clutched onto his shoulders, his back facing us. She made eye contact with me just as she came and her face as she reached her climax was gorgeous. Her expression sent a new wave of arousal down my spine and made me clench around nothing.

“Are you enjoying being the watcher, too, sweetheart?” Tony asked, smugness clear in his voice as he felt my shiver.

“Yes.. Oh god, yes.. You have to promise me we’ll come back here.” I rolled my head on his shoulder to look at him with a small smile on my swollen lips, both from his heated kisses and how much I was biting my lip to hold back full screams of pleasure. It was then that Thomas returned, a smile both filled with lust and joy at hearing a promise of return.

“Of course, honey. I’m so glad you liked it.” He leaned in and pressed another kiss to my lips.

Alright, not a lot for you this WIP Wednesday, I have been doing a lot of spring cleaning! But here you go, just a lil Jason getting out there to keep an eye on his family

Featuring Harper Row for the first actual time, cuz she’s great and she deserves to be here!

First part of chapter 13, the rest is, as always, in the tags. Title is subject to change

———————

Hello Crime Lord My Old Friend

About twenty minutes after dropping Danny off at his dorm, Jason was suited up and ready to go.

Well, he’d stayed outside until he’d seen Danny shut the door behind him first. Jason had some fucking manners, though if pressed he couldn’t name who’d taught him them.

Danny’s dorm was about fifteen minutes from one of Jason’s better safe houses, as it happened. Jason had never been to a dorm, but from Danny’s stories?

A step below Teen Titans’ bunks, and those had sucked. Less privacy, smaller rooms, and more people? Who weren’t even part of the same team?

Maybe next semester Jason could offer to let Danny move in. He didn’t need need the safe house.

Red Hood could always buy the building. There were other apartments and while they weren’t luxurious, they beat half his other spots. The neighbourhood wasn’t bad either.

It’d be nice to pay Danny back a bit. Not have him closer. Just. Repay some of the debt by giving him a place to stay, rent free.

And maybe, just a little bit, the part of Jason that enjoyed the romanticism of his period novels kinda liked the idea. An estate for the king on your lands was a big deal back then.

A slightly more modern part of him thought being a landlord for his ruler would also be pretty funny. He figured Danny would enjoy that side too.

And it wasn’t like the guy could complain, since he’d literally given Jason back himself. Yeah, Jason was gonna pull that one out if Danny tried any familiar “oh I can’t accept this” on him.

Fixing his core was pretty damn god level on the favours spectrum. Jason could do whatever the hell he liked and Danny would just have to deal with it.

It cheered him up a little more, kept him in a good mood on the ride back to his safe house. It was more time where he couldn’t help Cass, but seriously?

Danny could change in a matter of seconds and be at her side not much slower. Walls, cars, goons, Jason had this feeling that none of it would slow Danny down.

And yeah, knowing that helped, but there was still a piece of him that only unknotted as he slid his helmet on and headed to the window.

“Hey, Black Bat. Busy?” He asked as the comms switched from earpiece to helmet display.

Of course he wore both. People kept trying to steal his damn helmet. That was also what the internal explosives were for.

The others all piped up when they heard him, Harper and Steph calling cheerful greetings around an ongoing conversation.

“Shit, Hood’s in, this mean I can go back to bed?” Bluebird teased. Spoiler cut her off immediately.

“Hell no, it can’t be a school night, Robin’s here! Great timing though Hood, we’re planning Red Robin’s eulogy and you have some experience there,” Spoiler chirped brightly, and Jason hesitated.

Sucked in a breath. He wasn’t gonna judge anyone else’s coping mechanisms until they got past “heads in a bag” levels.

Best to ignore it, since she wasn’t actually trying to set him off.

What the hell had Tim done since they’d left the manor?

Shaking his head, Jason settled into Red Hood and hopped onto the fire escape, scaling easily to the roof.

“Black Bat?” He repeated instead of answering, and half smiled when Spoiler groaned dramatically.

Black Bat answered in the considerate group pause.

“Not busy. Why?” She sounded amused, not even particularly tired, and Jason relaxed enough to slip all the way in.

“Thinking of going a little out of my way tonight. Wondered if you’d mind a tagalong?” Red Hood asked, hoping he sounded casual.

It wasn’t like he’d been planning to patrol the Alley anyway; his guys had already been told to handle it. He’d have to run around tomorrow night to keep the creepers scared, but he could have a couple off.

The tiny pause before her answer didn’t quite feel like judgement, but Jason muted before blowing out the sigh as she did. It wasn’t like the others needed to know he’d been stressing.

“Sure. Meet at the library?” She’d had his tracker up. Hood nodded, turning and running for the edge of the roof.

“Sounds good.” And they’d probably wound Spoiler up enough, she’d start plotting vengeance for being ignored soon. “So what the hell did Little Red do?”

“Brought Too Fine to the Bat Cave,” Spoiler told him with relish, not noticeably put out by the delay.

Not necessarily a good sign, since she was also this enthusiastic while actively plotting against him.

Wait.

Too Fine was Tucker’s hacker name.

“But he doesn’t know about us,” Red Hood said with a frown, catching an outcropping and swinging on.

“Oh, now you tell me,” Tim groused while the others snickered, “what a shame you didn’t think to when it’d have actually been helpful!”

News to Hood that he was on, probably still in the cave.

“He knows now,” Nightwing chimed in brightly, probably also travelling from the slight strain in his voice.

Hood paused for a moment, letting that sink in before attempting the next jump.

“Is he on comm?” He asked warily, because if Tim brought Tucker to the bat cave, it was entirely possible that they were all outed.

And that Tucker might tell Danny.

Shit, he still had to text Harley. Resolving to do it once he hit the library, he set back to running, throwing himself across another street.

Cass would probably take a little longer to get there.

“He’ll be back, he’s in the bathroom,” Tim explained with a heavy sigh, shaking his head. “It’s not all bad, he’s given me the full story on what happened in Amity Park. Witness account and all.”

“From a witness you let down to the bat cave~” Spoiler sang sweetly across the air.

Red Hood could hear Oracle rolling her eyes as she cut in.

“Tone it down, Batgirl. Bluebird, if you’re still thinking of heading in, could you swing past one last site on your way?” She said firmly, then lightening her tone for their current guest.

“Batgirl who? I’m Spoiler,” Spoiler grumbled, but didn’t push beyond that. None of them did when Oracle invoked the name she’d had second.

Bluebird snickered at her before answering the question, a hint of exertion suggesting she was on the move too.

“I’m not actually in a rush to go home, O, I got all dressed up so I might as well enjoy one last hurrah.”

Right, because she’d be going back to school probably when Danny did.

Harper had always been a damn good hero in Jason’s books, but she valued her retirement and none of them really wanted to ruin it. Unless, apparently, seven bats just had to stalk Jason’s new friends.

Hood would have apologized, but frankly if she’d said no, some of the others couldn’t have come to the gala to be a pain in his ass.

And then he couldn’t have had so much fun fucking with them.

Fine. One cool fruit basket for the Row household, and some rainbow cupcakes for Cullen. He needed practice on frosting roses anyway.

Although that also reminded him.

“Hey Bluebird, have the others filled you in on Phantom?” He asked, cutting off some more background chatter from Spoiler and Tim.

Nightwing and the girls had had hours by now.

“What, your new boyfriend?” Bluebird asked sweetly, and Hood rolled his eyes.

Probably hit the important shit then.

“Sent you a picture?” He asked instead, decidedly not entertaining that question.

Nightwing and Spoiler snickered. Hood flipped off their general directions, settling himself comfortably on the roof of the library to wait for Black Bat.

There was a short pause, the others now wondering what he was getting at. Good.

“In and out of suit,” Bluebird agreed, curiosity tinging with mild suspicion. Being out of retirement clearly wasn’t good for her.

Hood nodded, pulling out his phone and shooting Harley a quick text. It might be moot now, asking her not to mention Red Hood shit in front of Danny, but he might as well.

He still had to ask if Waylon knew. No reason not to do both, just in case. And see if Tucker knew when he got back.

“I know you’re outta the game, but keep the light show to a minimum if you see him around, okay?” He asked, scanning quickly over the list Danny’d cleared for public discussion.

He didn’t know if Tucker would have mentioned it, but he might as well. Cause of death was good, but Jason personally would veto “and the effects it may have now”.

Because fuck Bruce and his need for everyone to show him their weaknesses.

Bluebird definitely sounded curious now, and possibly like she was punching someone.

“Oh? He not big on the electricity?” She wondered aloud, and Hood grimaced.

Because if they were both at Gotham U in engineering… there was actually a chance Harper and Danny would run into each other.

Danny was older, but Harper skipped a couple years and he had no idea what year Danny was in. Fuck, they might be in the same classes. He couldn’t believe he’d never thought of that.

“Not exactly. You mighta seen him around actually, he’s a techie boy too. But he’s not a fan of the electricity flying around,” he explained, Nightwing making background noises that told Hood he hadn’t put the pieces together either.

Good. At least he wasn’t alone.

Bluebird made an interested hum, and probably a finishing blow considering the satisfaction when she spoke next.

“I thought he looked familiar. But then, he’s total Wayne-bait. Yeah, I can keep the good stuff under wraps if I see him around. Gonna guess he’s had some bad shocks in the line of work?”

Hood hesitated and in exactly the same instant Black Bat landed on the roof. Sam had given them all the warning about talking about a ghost’s death, so he could leave it at that.

But…

The way Danny had looked when he explained about Vlad. Yeah, he’d rather they took this seriously. He didn’t want any of his family to hurt Danny, even by accident.

“It’s how he died. He won’t spontaneously combust or anything, but it’s a bad memory.”

Silence reigned while the others absorbed that particular detail, Black Bat crossing to crouch on the roof beside him. Hood leaned over enough to bump their shoulders together.

He could almost feel concern radiating off her, which was an extra weird experience after literally feeling all of Danny’s emotions half the day.

Guess that was where Cass’s liminality was going. It made sense, kind of; despite her occasional trouble speaking, she was pretty much the clearest communicator in the family.

Having another back up way to make herself heard would only fit.

On a whim, he tried projecting comfort back to her.

For the hurt/Comfort spell, how do you feel about Silence and the tanks?

You know, it's an interesting choice of spell, because all of the few spells the tanks have contain verbal components (Pass Without a Trace, Grasping Vine, Hex, Misty Step) so they won't work in Silence, but on the other hand, only Hex does any damage, if only when you hit people anyways, so it's not exactly a crippling loss for them. Also because earth elementals (though not genies) are vulnerable to thunder damage, which Silence cancels out.

Silence

2nd Level Illusion (Ritual)

For 10 minutes Concentration, no sound can be created within or pass through a 20-foot-radius sphere centered on a point you choose within 120 feet. Any creature or object entirely inside the sphere is immune to thunder damage, and creatures are deafened while entirely inside it. Casting a spell that includes a verbal component is impossible there.

Normally, Orym is thankful for his sharp eyes, his sharp ears. But in a fight with sonic attack after sonic attack, his ears are ringing and overstimulated (everyone's are, he's sure, but his probably got there sooner with their sensitivity).

Though he supposes he barely has room to complain, not when Ashton's stony body is littered with chips and cracks from how the sound vibrates through their solid form. Orym can see that it's taking a heavy toll on the titan-blooded genasi, even as it fuels their rage ever higher.

"This sucks!" Dorian says with strained cheer, flicking his scimitar over Orym's head to harry an enemy into a better position for Orym to take them down. "I think we could use some quiet."

And the world goes silent.

Orym can't even hear his own heartbeat pulsing in his ears. He can feel it though, that rabbit-quick pace of surging adrenaline.

Ears made useless, sharp halfling eyes flicker over the battlefield to gather more information. So of course he sees the next incoming wave of sound meant to rip through him and his friends.

Except it doesn't.

The silence remains, not so much as a blip of sound coming through.

'Good trick, right?' Dorian's voice echoes through the telepathic bond Bells Hells rarely operates without these days.

'Fucking great trick,' Ashton rumbles into the bond, a relieved looseness in their form as they continue to swing their hammer at all foes in range.

'Thanks, Dorian.'

Orym is so glad to have the bard back among their number. They need him, Orym needs him.

“I need a favour.”

Y/N snorted. “Which one of your siblings fucked up now?”

Dick sighed, clearly unwilling to give her a name. “Jason.” She could practically hear the wince in his tone.

“No. No way in hell. Pass him off on someone else.” She leaned back in her desk chair and spun around to face away from her computer.

“There’s no one else to pass him off to. Look he’s pretty beat up, I just need you to let him sleep on your couch, make sure he eats, and keep an eye on him for a few days.”

“I thought he healed faster than the rest of you anyway. Why’s he need a baby sitter?” She huffed, really not wanting to spend three days cooped up with the most insufferable batboy.

“He does. That’s why, he’s worse than normal. I just need someone to make sure he doesn’t try and go on patrol. Please, Y/N? Pretty please?” He whined.

“For fucks sake, Grayson.” She sighed. “You are going to owe me big for this.”

“Yes!” She could practically see him punching the air. “Thank you so much. We’ll be at yours within the hour.”

He hung up before she could take it back.

***

Y/N could hear Dick and Jason bickering before she even opened the door. She took a deep breath before she pulled it open. Dick shot her a wide smile while Jason just sighed and rolled his eyes.

“I don’t need a babysitter.” Jason huffed out.

But one look at him showed he did. He could barely stand on his own, his left arm slung around Dick’s shoulders as the older man kept him standing. His face was pretty untouched other than a black eye and split lip, but she could see the edges of bandages peaking out of his collar and the shape of them beneath his clothes.

“I already pulled the sofa bed out.” Y/N sighed and moved out of the way so Dick could drag his brother inside the apartment. She shut the door and followed them as they made their way into the living room.

Dick helped Jason down onto the bed and Y/N caught the look of pain that flashed across Jason’s face before he schooled his expression again. Dick slung the backpack off his back and set it next to the bed before pulling a wad of cash out of his pocket.

“Dick, I don’t want your money.” Y/N said, crossing her arms over her chest.

Dick laughed, but she could see the annoyance under it. “It’s not for you. Do you know how much he eats? Trust me, you’ll need it to feed him.”

“I eat as much as you, Dickwad.” Jason muttered, pinching the bridge of his nose.

“You eat as much as three people, Jaybird.” Dick dropped the wad of cash on the coffee table. “I’ll be back for him in three days. I’ve locked up his suit, but I wouldn’t put it past him to try and escape, so keep an eye on him, please?”

“Sure.” Y/N agreed, trying to hide a smile at the look Jason sent Dick.

“Don’t do anything stupid.” Dick sternly told him before walking back over to Y/N. “Thank you for this, I really appreciate it. If he rips his stiches or anything like that and can’t reclose them, call Dr Thompkins.”

“I will. We’ll be fine.” She smiled and accepted his hug. “You be safe.”

“Always.” He sent her another smile before walking out.

Y/N took another breath before turning back to Jason. “You need anything?”

He grunted. “My suit.”

“Jason, your brother just had to practically carry you in here. I don’t think anyone would take the Red Hood seriously if he can’t even stand.” She watched him reach over the edge of the bed and pull the bag Dick had dropped towards him. She wasn’t at all surprised when he pulled a pistol out and stuffed it under the pillow he was propped up against. “I’ve got some work to do, so just shout if you need anything, okay?”

He nodded and reached for the TV remote.

***

“Jason?” Y/N knocked on the bathroom door, her worry growing when she got no reply. “Jason, you’ve been in there an hour. Are you okay?” She was met with silence. “If you die on my watch, Dick will kill me.” Silence. “Okay, fuck it, I’m coming in and you better not be naked.” She used the spare key to open the lock, not at all ready for the scene in front of her.

Jason was sitting on the floor, leaning against the bath with his legs splayed in front of him. His hands were buried in his curls, his knuckles white from how hard he was tugging on the strands, and there were tears streaming down his cheeks even though his eyes were screwed shut. His breathing was uneven and ragged.

“Jason?” She said softly as she dropped to her knees in front of him. She hesitantly reached out, attempting to lay a hand on his leg, only for him to pull it away, curling up into himself.

He let out a noise somewhere between a sob and a cry of pain. “Don’t touch me, please.”

“Okay.” She took a deep breath and shifted to his side, leaning up against the bath next to him, while leaving a good few inches between them. “I won’t touch you, but I’m going to sit here and keep you company.” He gave her a small nod, so she decided to keep talking. “Dick used to speak to me all the time about you, you know? Before you came back, I mean. I think he thought it was easier, because I didn’t know you, so he could tell me whatever he wanted without risking me getting upset like the others.”

Jason’s body began to unfurl, his hands slowly letting up his grip on his hair as he relaxed back against the bath and his breathing began to even out.

She kept her eyes forward as she spoke again, not wanting him to pull away. “I know we’re not… friends or anything, but… I’m here for you, if you need someone to talk to.”

“He didn’t stop laughing. Even when he cracked my skull open with that crowbar, he never stopped laughing.” Jason took a deep breath and leant his head back against the bath. “I let my guard down. The guy came at me with a crowbar, and I was just… back there. If Dick hadn’t been there…” He trailed off and screwed his eyes shut again. “I’m fucked up, and it’s all his fault.”

Hesitantly, Y/N reached out and took his hand in hers. His whole body tensed up, but he relaxed again slightly as she ran her thumb over his knuckles. “Dick ever told you how we met?”

“No.”

“I hacked into LexCorp. Found some things Luthor didn’t want the world to see, so he sent his men after me. They grabbed me, but I wouldn’t tell them where I stashed the hard drive. Dick was looking into something else to do with LexCorp when he found me and got me out. But not before they had the chance to do this.” She lifted up her shirt so he could see the jagged scar that started at her hip and curled over her ribs before stopping under her shoulder blade. “I still dream about it sometimes, the look on the mans face as he carved open my skin. You’re not the only one who is fucked up, Jay. Have you considered talking to someone? A professional, I mean?”

He shook his head. “Most of the time, I can’t even get my thoughts straight. The pit… it’s like an itch in the back of my head that I can’t scratch. Also who the fuck is going to do a therapy session with the Red Hood?”

“If you pay really well, I bet they would let you keep the helmet on.” She smiled as it drew a snort and a shake of his head from him. “Why don’t we move to the sofa? You can’t be comfy sitting on the floor.” She pushed herself to her feet when he nodded and held a hand out to him. He raised his eyebrows, challenging her to try and lift all his muscle mass off the floor. She huffed. “I was just trying to be helpful.”

He used the side of the bath to push himself off the floor, but she still had to reach out and grab his free arm to stabilise him so he didn’t face plant the floor.

“Thank you.” He said softly. She knew he didn’t just mean for preventing him from falling.

“Anytime.” She smiled. “You wanna watch a movie?”

“You got the 2005 version of Pride and Prejudice?” He asked, the corner of his mouth curling upwards.

She scoffed. “Of course, who do you think I am?” She slung his arm over her shoulder, more to keep him upright than help him walk, and shot him another smile. He returned it and she helped him into the living room, wondering if the pair of them had finally turned a corner in their relationship.

╭﹐❣︎﹕ More Than Friends﹒〣 ﹕‹𝟹 － 𝖤𝖱𝖤𝖭 𝖸．

cw/tw. teasing, kissing, black!reader

an. hey! So i do apologize if this sucks or doesn’t make sense, this is my first time writing a fanfic in general so i really hope you guys liked it! I’ll improve the more i write these fanfics so bare with me 🙏🏽 . Anyways hoo you guys enjoyed this !.

summary. - eren wants to be more than just friends .

𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐃𝐎𝐍𝐓 𝐊𝐍𝐎𝐖 𝐖𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐍 𝐇𝐀𝐏𝐏𝐄𝐍𝐄𝐃, at first you and him were having a great time, laughing and telling stories of your days and then out of nowhere he has you pinned against the wall with a red face. You didn’t know if you should be scared or worried, the only thing you’re scared about is him turning into a titan at any moment (stupid thought i know) but you knew he wouldn’t do that..

Would he?

Everyone else was in their separate rooms either sleep or doing whatever but most would be sleep considering it’s 11 at night. You on the other hand you had no idea what came over Eren he’s never been this physical with you ever. If you could think of any physical contact you and him had was either hugging, or fighting each other but other then that never doing all THIS.

Maybe it was something you said?

You didn’t know what you could’ve possibly said to trigger him but in honesty it was kinda turning you on..you looked to stare into his beautiful teal green eyes with confusion in your own (E/C) ones. To break the tension that was now building up you cleared your throat, “Eren?” You whispered out, only to gain a deep hum from him. At this point you were starting to feel nervous…in all honesty you always felt nervous around Eren. It was something about his voice and stare that just makes your knees go weak. You almost gasped at the sudden feeling of cold fingertips trail to your exposed waist, due to your shirt slightly lifting. He began to slowly move his fingers along your waist as his other hand kept you pinned against the wall. Pretty sure if you were white you would’ve been a blushing mess right now, but all you could feel is heat go to your face.

You were about to speak again but got caught off by Eren. “You know..you always pissed me off with that friend word.” He finally spoke but it wasn’t in english..instead it was in Japanese. At this very moment you were about to burst..he always knew your turn on for when people speak different languages due to you accidentally rambling about it when you were fucked up with booze. You could feel your thighs squeeze together hearing that husky raspy voice when he spoke. And by his hand on your waist he could feel the shiftiness of your legs moving, he raised a brow with a grin on his face. “You’re enjoying this aren’t you?.” He spoke again but this time with a teasing tone in his voice, you gulped down that giant lump that was in your throat trying to find the words to respond. But you could only just make noises not trusting your voice at the moment.

How could you when your best friend is practically trapping you against the fucking wall using your weakness against you and might i add teasing the hell out of you. You never knew Eren had this side of him and honestly it was fucking hot, he smirked not gaining the answer he wanted so instead he placed a knee in between your legs rubbing against your core watching your face scrunch in the slight pleasure you were gaining. You were about to once again try to speak but got taken off guard when he placed his mouth against yours instantly sliding his tongue in your mouth. You gasped into the kiss but it got drowned by your soft moans leaving your throat when you felt him shift his knee against your cunt. He was rough with the kiss, almost like he was desperate for it..like he’s been waiting months for this to happen.

You moved your hand up to tangle them in his soft long locks slightly gripping it, to earn a soft groan from his lips. After a few more seconds he pulled away to start attacking your neck with love bites, “Eren..” You moaned, feeling him starting to suck on the sensitive skin feeling him grin against it. You moved your head slightly to the left to give him enough space to mark you as his, his hand that was on your waist shifted to the inside of your shirt, feeling his now warm hands roam around your body. With one last lick he pulled away towards your ear to whisper.

“I don’t think we can just be friends (Y/N).”

thank you for the prompt!! :0

timkon + fear gas <3

///////

The Titans Tower is still set to lockdown protocol. Just like it has been for the past eight hours.

Or -- more accurately, Red Robin's room is still set to lockdown protocol. Nobody in, nobody out, until Tim, still in full Red Robin costume and weaponry, deems himself safe.

It's driving them all nuts, really, not being able to check on their teammate. Their friend. But it's driving Kon nuts most of all, because he has the most guilt for why Tim felt the need to lock himself in there in the first place.

Kon's been doing rounds outside of Tim's door -- in plain view of the security camera, which might be doing just as much harm as good, depending on how much fear toxin is still in Tim's system. But Kon can't help it. He has to stay close, just in case.

In case of what, he's not sure. But he can't bring himself to leave Tim's side. Or, as close to his side as he can get, on the other side of a meta-proof door while Tim rides out the remnants of fear gas.

They got Tim the antidote, of course. But not without struggle, and not until hours and hours had passed with it already in Tim's system. And unfortunately, not without a fight that could have killed all of them, because Tim is a crafty, resourceful, paranoid bat, and he held his own against Kon, Cassie, and Bart combined.

In the end, Kon had to be the one to administer the antidote. Kon winces as he remembers holding Tim in place with TTK; as he remembers Tim's panic, his surety that he was going to die in Kon's arms. As bad off as Tim is right now, that's going to be haunting Kon's own nightmares for a while.

But in the here and now, Tim's heart rate has finally calmed down, well out of the danger zone. He's still in the throes of a panic attack until this new strain wears off, but it won't be deadly.

Kon just wishes that stupid fucking door would open.

Cassie was right to stop him from breaking in, or course. She'd informed him that Tim has every right to feel safe, to protect himself from real and imagined threats. That of course he was terrified, three metas had forced him down when Tim thought he was fighting for his life. Not to mention, Tim had been terrified of hurting them, too.

"Don't make me use this," he'd said, heart rabbit-fast as he held a hand over the lead box on his hip. The one containing kryptonite. "Don't make me use this on you, Kon, I don't want to hurt you. Don't make me do this, you have to snap out of it. Don't let Luthor win, he can't control you!"

Kon squeezes his eyes shut. Yeah. That will definitely be haunting his nightmares.

Logically, Kon gets it. It really is for the best, that Tim's locked himself in a safe place. Tim's afraid, and rightly so, of both being killed and having to hurt his friends. He deserves space to ride out his panic attack, even after getting the antidote. But Kon can't help it. He patrols close anyways, waiting for a signal, any signal, that Tim has come back to reality.

Kon can't help it any longer. He has to know.

He speaks directly into the security camera, knowing good and well Tim has speakers built in. That he's probably monitoring everything very, very closely.

"I promise I'm not here to hurt you," Kon says. "I don't know if you believe that yet, so I hope I'm not freaking you out more by being here. Just wanted to make sure you knew that."

There's no response from the speaker outside the door. Kon sighs.

He rests his fist gently on the door. He almost wants to knock, like he actually expects entry. "We're all just worried about you, and wanna make sure the antidote worked. No one's mad about the fight, we all know you were just trying to defend yourself from what you saw. Whatever you're feeling right now... I just want to be there for you, man. Fear toxin sucks ass. I hate that you're going through it alone. But if I'm freaking you out by staying so close, just tell me to leave and I will. I promise. But I'm not going anywhere until then."

The speaker still doesn't turn on. No acknowledgement that Tim even hears him.

Except, of course, for the tiniest of upticks in his heart-rate, followed by it slowing. Slowing, until it reaches just slightly-elevated levels. Kon's shoulders relax as he hears it. Tim might really be okay now, at least physically.

"Well. I just hope you feel better soon," Kon says. He splays his palm out against the cool metal, a bittersweet smile on his face. "Get some rest if you can, man. We'll be here when you're ready-"

"Don't go."

The speaker comes to life, a shaky, tinny voice coming from the overhead. Undeniably Tim, even if he sounds absolutely wrecked.

"Tim? You okay in there-?"

"Don't go," Tim says. Hoarse from screaming himself raw. God. A knot forms in Kon's stomach, but at least he has more proof Tim will be okay. He tries to focus on that. "Stay -- stay in view of the camera. So I can see you."

Kon's brows furrow.

He can't tell if that means Tim still suspects that he's going to hurt him or what.

"I can do that," he says. "I won't hurt you, though. I'll stay put, but even if I had to take a leak or something, I'm not- no one in this Tower is going to break in or hurt you, I promise."

"That's not-" Tim breaks off to take shallow breaths. Kon winces at the sound over the speakers, but wouldn't trade it for the harrowing silence of not knowing. "That isn't- I'm not afraid of you hurting me."

Kon's heart drops. So Tim is more wrecked from threatening his friends than from the terror of thinking they were here to hurt him. He doesn't care about his own safety, of course not. Tim's not thinking about how his hallucination showed him that Cassie joined Ares and wanted to conquer the world, starting with Tim. That Bart was a serial killer from the future sent to murder Tim -- something so far-fetched Kon doesn't even want to ask about it. Or that Conner was mind-controlled by Luthor. Again. But he puts on a brave face anyways, because no matter what, he has to be there for his friend.

"Well, that's good, because I'm not afraid of you hurting me, either," Kon says, voice even and matter-of-fact. His own hero voice. It's not as authoritative as Tim's Robin voice, but it's not bad, either. He's practiced enough, lately.

Tim's quiet for a long while, the speaker picking up on every shaky breath.

Then, finally.

"I had kryptonite ready for you. You should be afraid."

"Yeah. But you didn't use it then, and you definitely won't use it now," Kon says. "I trust you."

"But I-"

"Tim, buddy. Listen to me. You could hold a knife to my throat and I wouldn't flinch."

That, at least, gets a shaky laugh out of Tim. "You're invulnerable."

"A kryptonite knife, then." Kon looks up to the security camera and smiles ruefully, hand still pressed to the door. "I'll be here as long as you want. But whenever you want to open that door, I'll be there. I'm not afraid of you."

The speaker goes to static again as Tim struggles for words, still picking up only the sound of his friend's shaky breathing. Kon almost doesn't need super hearing to pick out his heartbeat through the door; he can almost hear the thump-thump-thump through the speaker itself.

But then, all too soon, it clicks off.

Kon wilts outside the door. His posture sags, and he's left wondering what he's said wrong this time, to make Tim shut down again. He reluctantly pulls his hand away from the door, ready to give Tim some distance and just walk a few laps in front of the camera instead.

But then, like a dream-

Click. Whoosh.

There's the press of a button, and the metal shutters over the door lift. Kon waits with baited breath, frozen until the door itself opens. Tim stands on the other side, absolutely soaked with sweat. His eyes are wild with still-dilated pupils, his knees shake so badly that he can barely stand, and he looks pale as death.

But though he looks like he's just gone another round with the Clench, he's still standing.

"I'm going to shower," Tim says, white-knuckling his grip on the doorway. His voice is only slightly less shaky than before. "Then I'm going to drink as much gatorade, water, and pedialyte as I can fit in my stomach without puking. And then I'm going to sleep."

Kon watches him a moment. Tim's expression is unreadable, but there's still panic inside of him. He's still definitely under some of the after-effects of the fear toxin.

"Okay," Kon says simply, watching him for a moment. "What can I do to help?"

Tim squeezes both hands into fists. He takes a shaky breath. Then, "You're going to watch the bathroom door while I shower. And you're going to have Bart drop off everything, especially the gatorade. The - the blue kind. And then you're going to stand guard while I sleep. And you're not going to call me paranoid for any of it." Tim swallows hard. "And then we're never going to talk about this ever again. Got it?"

Just like that, it breaks the spell. The tension of the last eight hours lifts.

"I can do that," Kon says simply. "Go shower. I'm right here."

It works. Tim's entire body sags, exhausted from being awake and terrified for so long. He lets out a single, shuddering sigh, then he nods, and pulls himself as upright as he can manage.

Then Tim spins on his heel and marches to the bathroom without another word.

Kon stands faithfully outside as promised, even as it fills up with an ungodly amount of steam. He can hear when Tim sits down in the shower -- when he starts to cry from the overstimulation of the past eight hours. When he pukes up what little is left in his stomach, then scrubs the vomit off his tongue with as much toothpaste as he can manage.

But when Tim emerges, all wet hair and clean clothes -- and Kon respectfully doesn't comment on the Impulse hoodie over a Superboy shirt and Wonder Girl sweats -- there's a little bit of color in his face again. He looks better. Not perfect -- but so much better than the fevered, terrified mess he'd been just hours ago.

Kon opens his arms for a hug, and Tim falls face-first into his chest.

As promised, there are fifteen bottles of assorted electrolytes are sitting in a massive pyramid on Tim's nightstand, courtesy of Bart. Cassie also took the initiative to drop off a weighted blanket, as well as Tim's phone, a charger, and a note promising that Batman wouldn't be calling to check on him for at least a day.

"I'm right here," Kon says, hand resting strong and steady against Tim's back. "You're okay. Everyone's okay."

Tim curls his fingers into Kon's shirt, and Kon thinks, for the first time in a while, that they both believe it.

Levi Ackerman: 

Definitely a boob guy. He loves the fact he can come back after a mission and lay down, using them as his own personal pillow. He’d totally be into titty fucking. Straddling your waist as he slides his dick between your boobs. He’s a total marker. He loves marking every inch of your skin that wouldn’t be exposed to the outside eye. Expect your entire chest to be covered in hickies. My boy is in awe as he watches you ride him, boobs bouncing with each lift of your hips. He’s fucking wild about them. 

Armin Arlert: 

Armin’s a thigh guy. He’d adore the way you’d look in thigh high socks as he fucks you. Definitely the type to pull out when he’s about to cum just so he can cum on your thighs. He marks your thighs like no other. He enjoys seeing hickies he left the night before peaking out from under your training shorts. Don’t get me wrong he loves your boobs and ass but something does it for him when it comes to thighs. He most definitely wants you to sit on his face. He’d also love the way your thighs squeeze around his head while he’s sucking your most sensitive spots. 

Jean Kirschtein: 

Total ass guy. He’s very affectionate out in public. PDA doesn’t bother him. He’s slapping your ass almost every time you stand up. A lot of the times he’d tell Eren and Connie to look, then only to brag to them how you’re all his. He’d totally be into doggy style. He’d also be a whore for reverse cowgirl. Watching as you come down on his dick over and over again. He’d definitely flip you over on rough days just to lay his head on your ass.  

Eren Yeager: 

Eren likes both ass and tits. Though i truly believe he loves himself some boob. Watching them squish together in your tight top. He’d buy you lacy lingerie that he thinks would look good on you. I expect him to be going ham on your tits. No area of skin left behind. Sucking, then licking the area to sooth the pain. He’s a control freak who would adore how sensitive your boobs are. Playing with your nipples until tears are slipping down the sides of your face. 

Connie Springer: 

I see Connie being this very submissive boy at times. I can see him being a total thigh guy. He’d most definitely beg to be between your legs at all times. He’d mark up your thighs like Armin, although he’s much more precise with it. He is much more controlled and has his way of doing things. While Armin is messy with it, Connie’s placing them in strategic places that make him satisfied but that also causes you pleasure. He loves the plushness of your thighs. He could lay in the same place for hours as you draw little shapes on his shoulders and arms.

Character Profile: Rose Wilson (Ravager)

By popular demand, the next member of the Lost Titans: Rose Wilson!

Rose was introduced in Deathstroke the Terminator #15 in 1992. She is the daughter of Slade Wilson, a.k.a. Deathstroke the Terminator, and at the risk of rehashing stuff everyone knows, I have to give you the basics on Slade, too.

Slade Wilson was a soldier (originally in Vietnam, though that's obviously been updated since) who was so good at soldiering that the army gave him a super soldier serum that made him faster and stronger than any normal human. After leaving the military, he became an assassin - unbeknownst to his wife, Adeline, and their young sons Grant and Joey. When Slade's secret assassin-ing and ego caused Joey's throat to be slit, rendering him mute for life, Adeline left him.

The Wilson family first crossed paths with the New Teen Titans years later when Grant became the supervillain Ravager. When Grant's own janky powers got him killed, Slade decided this was the Titans' fault somehow and vowed revenge. This involved sleeping with a fifteen-year-old girl for some reason. Slade is a terrible person.

Meanwhile, Joey grew up to become the superhero Jericho, and became a long-standing member of the Titans. However, he got possessed by like a thousand ghosts at once, like you do, and went crazy and evil, and Slade had to kill him for his own good.

By this point, Slade had become such a popular character that he'd shifted from villain to antihero. (Never mind all the attempted child murder and statutory rape.) It was in this context, fresh after Joey's death, that Rose was introduced.

Rose is the daughter of a woman named Lillian Worth, a.k.a. Sweet Lili, a Cambodian woman who Slade once helped escape from the Khmer Rouge. Lili set up a high-end brothel in the States, and she and Slade became essentially fuckbuddies (this was after Slade's divorce), which eventually led to Rose. Lili didn't tell Slade about Rose because of his...everything, and Rose had a happy childhood, growing up with the other sex workers' kids in the brothel.

Unfortunately, Slade's enemies eventually came for Rose. Specifically, Slade's evil, shitty half-brother Wade LaFarge. (If you're thinking "Wait...Slade Wilson has a brother named Wade?" then yes, Deadpool was in fact Rob Liefeld shamelessly ripping off Deathstroke. Liefeld's collaborate Fabian Nicieza named him Wade to acknowledge this, and joked that he was Slade's brother. So Marv Wolfman gave Slade an actual brother named Wade, who sucks so bad and who nobody likes. I don't think Marv was happy about Deadpool.)

Anyway, Wade became the fourth Ravager (don't worry about the second or third, they don't matter) and kidnapped Rose. Slade...basically decided not to try to rescue her because he was busy, leaving the job to Lili and his best friend Wintergreen. Rose, who had been trained in martial arts by her mother, managed to partially escape on her own...at which point Lili showed up and tried to kill Wade by hitting him with her car...and driving them both off a cliff. This is usually described as Wade killing Lili, which...okay. (She died, but he secretly survived, because of course he did.)

Slade refused to take any responsibility for Rose, afraid of putting her in even more danger, so this extremely traumatized tween was placed in the care of the Titans, who at this point were led by Roy Harper. She was still a civilian at this point, although she did spar with the team, and she also showed she was not to be fucked with when women and children were in danger:

This is when Rose's powers first manifested: she has precognitive abilities, which originally involved lengthy visions of the distant future but quickly became flashes of what is about to happen, which makes her particularly good in a fight because she can predict what her opponent will do.

Also! During this period she became friends with Grant and also developed a brief but adorable crush on Kyle Rayner, while Bart Allen developed a brief but adorable crush on her. Babies!

She later shows up in the 1999 Titans series, considerably older (I'm assuming she's at least 18 here), when Roy hires her to be Lian's nanny, a job she takes very seriously:

But then the 1999 series was canceled. Then the 2003 Teen Titans series began, and very quickly it was revealed that Joey Wilson was alive, that he had been possessing his father, and that that was the reason for Slade's turn as an antihero, not any actual desire on Slade's part to be good. A newly freed Slade decides he wants a do-over with one of his kids.

Meanwhile, Rose has been placed with a foster family, because I guess she's somehow underage again? But said family is then murdered by Wade LaFarge - remember him? - who then kidnaps Rose. Who is rescued by Slade:

Rose, at Slade's encouragement, kills Wade and becomes the new Ravager. It's later revealed (to the reader, not to Rose) that Slade anonymously hired Wade to kill Rose's family because he wanted exactly this setup: for Rose to become completely emotionally dependent on and devoted to him.

Rose spends the next few years by her father's side, attacking the Titans and saying "Yes, daddy" in a sexy baby voice a lot. It's...tiresome. She's so determined to prove her loyalty that she even stabs her own left eye out, because we're in the mid-2000s now and it's peak edgelord time, baby! It's later explained that she's behaving like this because Slade drugged her with the same super soldier serum that gave him his powers (???), so Rose is now also extra strong, fast, etc.

Slade blackmails Dick (in his "villain" era) into briefly training Rose, and I have to include this panel because it kills me every time:

She's trying to be mean and scary but she loves the Harpers so much. I'm cry.

Anyway, Slade has only involved Dick as part of a convoluted plot to kill Superman by putting kryptonite in Rose's empty eye socket (sure), and when Dick reveals that kryptonite causes cancer in humans and that Slade knew that perfectly well and just didn't give a shit about Rose, Rose decides to go back to the side of good and join the Teen Titans properly.

It...does not go smoothly. Cassie hates and distrusts Rose and makes that very clear, and Rose responds by being as obnoxious and antisocial as possible, constantly accusing the other Titans of not trusting her, and basically causing problems on purpose. Like slipping naked into Tim's bed to surprise him problems:

I want to be clear that the writing here is absolutely abysmal. Johns and later writers (and artists) were trying to make Rose sexy sexy jailbait and also going for some kind of reductive Madonna/whore dichotomy with her and Cassie, and it's all very sexist and boring. But if you look past the, uh, actual comics, I do think that a lot of Rose's characterization here makes sense. She's a very traumatized teenager who expects people to dislike her, so she ensures that they dislike her to maintain control of the situation. She sees sex very much as something transactional and rooted in power exchange - which makes a lot of sense, since she was raised in a brothel! Plus she likes starting shit for fun. The comics are bad, but the idea of Rose is so, so good.

Another thing that is good in concept but shitty in execution: Rose/Eddie. As I mentioned in my Eddie profile, Eddie is utterly smitten with Rose pretty much immediately and he is both not at all subtle about it but also not at all a Nice Guy - his feelings are his to deal with and he never puts them on her to manage for him. Rose, for her part, doesn't seem to know how to handle just...a sweet boy who adores her, and so she alternates between flirting with him, being extremely mean to him, and being fiercely protective of him.

That last comes into play when Eddie is abducted by a villain team called (sigh) the Terror Titans. Rose fights her way through a gauntlet of them to rescue him, which is SO DAMN ROMANTIC even if the comic looks like shit. But she's so ruthless about it that Cassie and Tim discuss kicking her off the team, which she overhears - so she defects to the Terror Titans. Her plan is to go in undercover and take them down, but during the storyline she starts to wonder if maybe this isn't where she belongs after all.

Rose. Honey. Baby girl. The Terror Titans are led by the fucking Clock King, a loser in clock glasses who likes to sleep with teenage girls and is making other teenage superheroes fight each other to death in a ring. No, this is not where you belong.

(During this period Rose also becomes addicted to huffing adrenalin. I truly do not know how I made it through the late 2000s, y'all. The comics were abysmal.)

Somewhere in there Joey Wilson comes back as a hero, and he and Rose quickly bond, which is as touching as it is heartbreaking. But Joey is still deeply unwell, and despite Rose's best efforts, he goes villain again, and she has to help the Titans take him down. After butting heads with Cassie again, Rose decides to leave the Titans, again. She tries to convince a depowered Eddie to come with her, but he declines. She then stars in her own backup feature where she travels to a remote Canadian village and saves a bunch of women and children from trafficking; while she's gone, Eddie is killed. Rose then returns to the Teen Titans for the fifth time and remains on the team until Flashpoint.

New 52 Rose is...honestly I'm not even going to try to explain her, because most of it is just incomprehensible nonsense. She shows up as a supporting character (with two eyes) in Superboy and The Ravagers, but it really feels like Lobdell just used the character name (and a worse design, which is saying something) for an OC. She's basically hired muscle for an evil lab, and there's no mention of Deathstroke for ages.

Eventually over in Deathstroke's book, it's revealed that Rose's mother is Adeline in this universe, not Lili, which means that Rose has been completely whitewashed. Of course most art of her has always depicted her as white, but this erased any possibility of her being biracial. The Wilson family's New 52 adventures culminate in Slade killing both Grant and Joey by sticking a sword through their heads (?) while Rose watches in horror, which is so awful as to be actively hilarious.

Also the New 52 is of course where we got the first hint of a Jason/Rose relationship, when she appears in Red Hood and the Outlaws as his ex. This has nothing to do with any of her other completely contradictory appearances during this era. The New 52 was a goddamn mess.

Rebirth erased all of that mishegas, thankfully. Rose is once again Lili's daughter, and Lili is specified to be Hmong, meaning Rose is too. In a change from the pre-Flashpoint continuity, Rose was conceived while Slade and Addie were still married, meaning Slade was cheating on Addie with Lili. In fact, Slade was out of town saving Rose's life when Joey's throat was slit, so Addie viscerally hates Rose even though obviously none of that was Rose's fault. Despite this, Rose and Joey are quite close and love each other fiercely, which is nice, even if the astonishing toxicity of the Wilson family means they can't really do anything in a healthy or functional way, including love.

Here's an example of what I mean: during this period, Rose became possessed by an ancient Vietnamese warrior princess who occasionally took over her body. During one of those times, she killed Joey's fiancee (who was also sleeping with Slade) (and who Joey was cheating on with Slade's friend, a man at least twice his age). Joey forgave her. So that's...nice? I guess?

Both of you need so much therapy and also to go no contact with your father.

As of Infinite Frontier, Rose's original history seems to be pretty much intact, except that she has two eyes. (Her missing eye was restored by the New 52, although she was wearing an eyepatch in Death Metal. Maybe just for fun?)

She next appeared in Robin, hanging out on Lazarus Island with Damian, partially to keep an eye on him but mostly because she was trying to figure out what the deal was with one of the other competitors in the assassin tournament, a kid named Respawn. Eventually Respawn was revealed to be a clone of Talia and Slade, so basically Rose's younger half brother. Rose tried to take him under her wing, but she made the mistake of introducing him to Slade, who was like "Yes! A third chance to have a son and not fuck it all up entirely!" Rose was like "Hey maybe don't hang out with Slade" and Respawn was like "No this seems fine" and then Respawn was almost instantly murdered. So. That was a bummer.

Should've listened, Grant 2.0.

These days, Rose is a member of the clandestine team Stormwatch for some reason, and is appearing with them in Batman: The Brave and the Bold.

Rose is one of those characters who is a fan favorite of gross dudes and so a lot of the writing (and art, oh god the art) around her has been truly abysmal. But she's so popular that every so often she's in something really solid, and even when the comics are bad, she somehow shines as a really fascinating, heartbreaking, lovable character. Maybe someday we'll get a really good Ravager and Jericho miniseries, that would be nice. In the meantime, there's always twelve thousand shitty issues of Teen Titans!

🌤️Share your favorite piece of dialogue from your WIP. i have SO MANY???

"So. Yeah. Roommates suck. You pay more than them and it chafes your ass, you pay less and you can't open your mouth without being told you can also get the fuck out if you've got a problem, nobody but you will wash a single fucking plate, the TV's broken and nobody will fess up, then someone throws a fist."

Ichigo opens his mouth, closes his mouth -- and then apparently can't hold back any farther than that and says drolly, "Yeeeeah, I suspect that might have been the 'bunch of feral teen bastards raising each other' thing mixed with 'where's the money coming from tomorrow' stress." 

Nelliel chokes on a laugh she really wasn't expecting. "That's... Huh."

"... Sounds fake, but okay." Grimmjow squints. "You ain't gonna tell us being saddled with roommates as a married couple is awesome though."

... Now why did Ichigo clear his throat like that? 

He stands all at once, bussing his and Hime's glasses back to the sink, and starts the hot water to wash them, studiously not looking at any of them. Nel blinks. Okay, that's -- suspicious? Strange? 

"Honestly, I used to live with two sisters and my dad who has a really big personality, let's call it that, and my room was Grand Central for all our friends back in high school. It's quiet here, and that's cool, but we live too far from all of them to just drop by so we haven't really seen them in months. The neighbors are alright but we don't hang out either, so..."

Nelliel nods slowly, brow furrowed. His head's still bowed over his glass, scrubbing at nothing. "I guess. But that's visiting, not..."

"Visiting is good! And I..." Orihime tangles her fingers together, staring down at her hands. "After my brother died -- I was fourteen -- I lived alone, in a studio -- and it was... lonely." 

"Oh right, your bitch aunt." 

Ichigo's hand slips on the spigot; water splashes. He splutters, getting a faceful; Nel slaps a hand on her mouth. Fuck.

Grimmjow is staring, not even at Nelliel's sudden comment or at Ichigo being ridiculous, but at Orihime. "Didn't hear about that."

"Well! I still had my own place and all! It's pretty cool for a teenager! Serious street cred!" 

"You hated it," Grimmjow retorts, eyes gone narrow.

"I hated it," Orihime admits, voice quiet. "But I spent a lot of time at Tatsuki-chan's house and at Ichigo's, so it wasn't too bad. Then I got into a share-house for university! That was great." She takes a deeper breath, like she's bracing. "I like that Nel-chan is here during the day. I kinda -- otherwise, I just... I do chores, I guess." 

Stranded at the sink, Ichigo looks stricken, like he didn't know, didn't fully realize. 

"All my other friends work," Orihime adds, bowing her head. "And it's -- it's nice, keeping house! It's my house, I like doing it! But it doesn't take all the hours in my day, you know? And it's -- quiet."

Ichigo steps up to her, rests a hand on her back. She smiles up at him, bright like she said nothing of importance. He furrows his brow back; he's not buying it. 

Her smile shrinks, turns sadder. Nel turns her glass in her hands.  

Everyone is silent for a moment. 

"We should have had this conversation in the pillow fort," Orihime says all at once, eyebrows furrowed very seriously.

Nelliel cracks up.

Opinions on Rose's Ravager outfits? Personally I always feel like she gets screwed over when it comes to outfits. I thought her original outfit was bland, but I'd rather have that than the weird pirate motif DC keeps putting onto her now.

HEAD IN HANDS i just wrote a whole response to this with details of every single one of her costumes then i pressed the wrong button and accidentally deleted ALL OF IT im gonna cry. so im sorry if i forget something because this is the second time im writing this whole thing :(((((

anyways overall i agree her costumes are usually bad. they either dont really fit her vibe or theyre boring or they have way too much going on. there are only a handful that i actually consider Good and most of them are really bad or just kinda nothing

but i put under the cut what i think of all of them:

original costume: BAD

this one falls into the bland category and its just.... not good. like the boob window is so unnecessary, i dont like the mask, and the colors are so nothing, and every detail sucks. i like the boots tbh but other than that. bad.

the same costume but different: better

i like this because it takes some of the good aspects of the other one and keeps them, but then makes it all a lil brighter and gives some more orangey accents. i wish she didnt have the mask at all, i hate it. but when she does have the mask i prefer it when her hair is sticking out the bottom, i dont like it when its all tucked in like in the first pic

the same costume without the mask: <3

im counting this as its own costume just because in the middle of teen titans she goes a while just not wearing the mask at all <3 its so disappointing when she puts it back on after going a bit without it

ok. new 52 time :/

NOWHERE fits: so fucking awful

technically not even ravager outfits but still. everyone point and laugh. the white and green does NOT look good on her and both of these costumes look terrible. especially the first one bc what the fuck is going on with that skirt thing

the ravagers: unfortunate serve

i fucking love this costume, i think this is actually one of my favorites of hers. i think it combines costume + armor really well, and i think that the color scheme really suits her. the art in this book was so fucking pretty and she looked so good every time she showed up. the unfortunate part was every other aspect of this book :/

her worst look: literally fucking terrible no redeeming qualities

girl take that shit off right fucking now i cant be seen with you wearing this. there is not a single part of this fit that looks good. i said the color scheme looked good in the last costume bc the red was kept to accents. there is so much red going on here and thats FAR from the worst part. lets go from head to toe. that mask is literally a travesty, i dont know who thought it was a good idea. the weird collar thing she has going on is so????? then she has the skulls on her shoulder pads, which are bad enough on their own. and why does she have a bazooka on her back. and why does she only have a skull on one knee?????? this is a fucking mess. kory attacks her on sight in this book and i fully believe its because this costume is so ugly she couldnt hold herself back. um. i like the fingerless gloves though i guess

rebirth: hesitant slay...

i hate the mask but other than that its?? fine???? this one used to be my favorite but i dont really like it as much anymore, idk why. i think its trying too hard to be armor and casual at the same time and ends up not looking good. i hate this mask soooo much though, i think the weird thing going on with her eyes makes this the second worst mask behind whatever was going on in the last one. and like you said i think this one relies too much on the pirate motif??? like i appreciate the reference to the eyepatch i guess but i would rather they just give her an eyepatch. like the skulls and the pirate thing seems way out of place and doesnt fit her vibe or the outfits vibe at all and it just looks weird. but other than that this look is. Fine.

defiance: eh

this one isnt technically ravager either but its still a rose costume so im rating it. its very ,,,, fine. like i dont have any problems with it but there isnt anything i particularly like about it. the whole point of the white costumes in this arc was because they were supposed to look wrong and out of place and all so i cant fault it for that, but theres just not really anything going on here its fine for what it is and thats all i can really say about it

willow: SLAY &lt;3 <3

i love this one, probably another one of my favorites. once again the black with red accents suits her so well. and the artist draws it so it doesnt even seem that horny despite the fact that its a lace up crop top and booty shorts <3 she looks so nice and i love the fit thats my girl (gn) ❣️❣️

stormwatch: yeah &lt;3

two screenshots just to point out the fact that she changes costumes halfway through this issue and i want to bully her for it. but this one is nice, its really simple but i think it works, plus shes drawn like an actual adult instead of a 15 year old so i cant complain <3 the skull imagery is very small and doesnt seem to piratey so i still dont love it but i forgive it. this costume is pretty good and i like it overall, its one of her better costumes

and yeah <3 i hope i didnt forget any but uh rose babygirl we have got to get you better costumes. i think the best color for her would be like a reddish orange bc i like the red for her but the orange is kind of Her Color (even though its only because of slade) and i think she should never wear that mask

#god i love the art in ravagers so much i wish it was just a picture book with no words in it at all #rose wilson #dc

Honestly I tolerated, sometimes liked Aerith in Remake. But it seems like Rebirth will make me dislike her so so much. She seems like such a backstabber who doesn’t care about hurting her supposed friend, Tifa. She’s aware Cloud and Tifa have something going on and yet, she continues to cling to and flirt with Cloud and he lets her. It really sucks because I wanted to like the Aerti friendship, but it seems only Tifa is super duper kind while Aerith is just not. Aerith seems so selfish and unkind to me. And honestly, it makes me dislike Cloud a little too and Cloud is actually one of my favorite protagonists. But it seems unfair because Tifa has only ever loved him and she’s doing everything she can to watch out for him, because she’s knows he’s not quite right. I know they’re not together yet, and I know I’m being unfair to the poor dude with Jenova-brain, but it just doesn’t feel right to see Cloud let Aerith flirt and get so close and to stare into her eyes like that. It makes it feel like Cloud can do anything, no matter how much it’ll hurt Tifa or how wrong it is, and it’s like it’s okay because Tifa will always be there and love him anyway, kind of like a punching bag. I don’t know if I’m explaining it right. I feel like Tifa deserves so much more because she’s such a kind, beautiful soul. My heart hurts for her. I wanted Cloud to only love and look at her the way she does him, even if he’s not all there. But I guess since he’s not himself yet, he gets a free pass right? Since this is all a red herring, it’s okay whatever he does right? He can do whatever he wants with whatever girl until Tifa devotes herself to his comatose ass and helps him find his real self in the LS and then he can reveal his love for her all along. Idk man this leaves a bad taste in my mouth. I played OG, platinumed Remake, and preordered Rebirth, but this trailer kind of zapped some of my excitement. I’ll still play it, but I guess I’m not as excited, especially since it seems to be heavily Clerith, with a dash of Zerith, and we still have 3 or so years until the next part. And even then, I’m not as excited anymore either for how the rest turns out too…

It's okay, a lotta people feel the same way you do, and it's because we really hoped SE wouldn't do this to Tifa, so the letdown is huge. They're the ones who went around screaming Tifa and Aerith were best friends and showing how supportive and kind Tifa is to Aerith in ToTP and then having Aerith be all "look how cool Tifa is!!!" in her part, only to show that actually she's just another two faced back stabber trying to fuck Cloud.

I said once that Tifa has no female friends because they all wanna fuck him, and it's true. She has no friends because of Cloud. Think about how isolated she is in all the novels. The boys in Nibelheim wanna get with her, so she keeps them at arm's length. In Midgar she wants to be friends with Jessie, but she's just using her. Although she's popular around sector 7 she isn't close to anyone except Marlene, who's a literal child. Aerith is two faced. The others in the team all disperse and go home. All she has is Cloud and the kids. Then Cloud starts acting stupid and her only so called supportive adult leaves and she has nobody.

When I say Tifa deserves better, I mean Tifa deserves better.

Tifa's so strong emotionally. She never blames anyone else for her situation, even though they deserve to be blamed. She hates being alone but she carries on. She never succumbs to mental weakness or geostigma. She's a titan and SE should acknowledge that instead of treating her like shit.

So, after watching the Owl House finale at like midnight and then proceeding to freak out about it for the next few hours, I was too exhausted to really put together too many coherent thoughts. Anyways, here are some of my thoughts on the Owl House series finale:

MAJOR SPOILERS BELOW

*First off, I was not okay throughout the entirety of this episode, and I was constantly switching between smiling like an idiot and fucking sobbing, so it was a rollercoaster (in the best possible way)

*That nightmare sequence based off of Luz, Eda and King’s trauma built up throughout the show was a hell of a way to start off the episode

*Tbh though, I loved that the episode took the time to really address Luz’s fears and insecurities about being too much like Belos

*Luz figuring out it was all fake because Amity is a nerd and wouldn’t have misquoted Azura? That’s so funny and I love her for that

*The light spell really came back full circle huh, being the first spell she learned and the one that saved her multiple times in this episode

*The Luz, Eda, and King reunion?? Screaming, crying, throwing up, too many feelings to comprehend

*The Collector comparing death to broken toys that can be easily fixed really puts into perspective how little he really understands about humans, what a great moment

*Raine fighting back against Belos like the BAMF they are, I love to see it!

*I see you King, being the only one to use they/them pronouns for the Collectoe

*Collector Backstory Collector Backstory Collector Backstory!!

*Luz seeing the hurt and loneliness in the Collector and giving them a chance to understand what friendship actually is was honestly so important to me. Plus, reliving all of those great moments through the show was amazing!

*I was wondering if the Titan’s heart was ever going to come into play

*I’m always here for shows that understand that kindness and forgiveness are important, but that not everyone deserves it (looking at you Belos)

*While Belos was not someone the Collector should have shown kindness to, it really goes to show how he wanted to change for the better and take Luz’s words to heart

*When Luz straight up fucking died, I was basically in denial until I knew she was okay. It still sucked though. I mean, the balls of light floating throughout the Boiling Isles, Camila crying, everyone not knowing what the lights mean, but also knowing that deep down, they understand, it was beautiful and heartbreaking

*The Collector trying to “fix” Luz and it not working and then being so confused and scared?? Absolutely not, excuse me while I sob again

*While I hate Eda and King being devastated about Luz, I wanted nothing more than to see them wreck Belos’s shit

*So many thoughts about King’s father! The reveal, the mini Hooty, conformation of the Titan being bigender, I loved all of it!

*Also, can we just talk about how the Titan didn’t give the powers to Luz because she was the chosen one or anything like that, but because she made the choice to be there and to keep fighting and the Titan recognized that? Because I love it!

*”So the question is, will you choose yourself?” I will never get over this line!

*The Camila and Amity hug?!

*Camilla and the others using the glyphs Luz had taught them was so cool!

*I really appreciate how the writers made sure that even though the Collector redeemed himself, he also recognized how his actions, no matter how naive or misguided they were, still hurt and traumatized people, and he apologized for it and put in the work to make amends and do better

*TITAN LUZ!!!

*Eda and King helping Luz with the magic made me smile so much!

*Small moment, but Hunter specifically being the one to save Gus’s palisman? Guess I don’t need my heart then, thanks 😭

*Eda and Raine reunion! And me tearing up for the 50th time during this episode

* “For I am the Good Witch Luz, child of the Human Realm, student of the Demon Realm, and warrior of peace! Now eat this sucker!” OH MY GID SHE SAID IT ASFFHGDGHJJBV IT’S DO COOL

*I’ve seen arguments over Belos’s death and ngl, I’m glad it was anticlimactic. He didn’t deserve anything more than melting away and having his head stomped in

*Luz not saying a single word as Belos made one more attempt to manipulate her? Absolutely incredible. Luz understanding that she isn’t like Belos and not letting his words get to her and drag her down with him? Everything I needed to see

*All if the family reunions at the end had me crying, especially when Hunter thought he was all alone and then Darius appeared and Hunter immediately brightened up and was showing off his shirt and god, this episode has wrecked me

*I can’t even begin to point out everything I loved about the time jump epilogue, so I’ll just share some of my favorites!

*The new character designs! I loved every one of them! I freaked out every time a different character was shown

*Hunter learning how to carve palismen!

*Eda being the headmaster of the School of Wild Magic!

*The matching flapjack tattoos!

*Luz going to college in the Demon Realm!

*The Darius and Alador moment we got!

*The quinceañera?! Dana was so real for making sure we got to see that!

*Everyone saying the iconic Byeeee at the end, making me cry (again)

If you made it through all of that, thanks for reading, and feel free to share any thoughts by commenting or dming me! All in all, I loved this episode so much, as I’m sure a lot of other people did, and I’m so happy that I got to watch this incredible show and go on this journey with Luz, Eda, King, and the rest of the Boiling Isles! ❤️
