The parallels 😭😭 hugging and calming their father after the Lazarus Pit
I absolutely loved this comic. How Ra's was trying to make the world a better place, how he just cared so much about the wolves that saved him when he was a kid. How even though he hurt and kidnapped Damian, how he still cared for him in his own sick way. (I absolutely NOT excusing his behaviour nor saying that he was a good grandfather. It's just that he cares for his family, ok??? Its obvious.)
Bruce was so furious when he found out that Damian was kidnapped. Seeing him as a protective dad is just gold. He died (again, what's new?) and was resurrected by the Lazarus Pit. It was so heartwarming to see Damian caring for his father. He waited for three months for Bruce and look how he is hugging him 😭😭😭 I think Bruce's worst fear (one of them at least) is seeing Damian become a cold-blooded murderer. He wants Damian to be a hero.
Talia, the queen, was beautiful as usual. I just really wanted to see her interact with Damian and Bruce.
Damian *holding his father as he bleeds and dies in his arms* : New trauma unlocked 🙃🫠
I know people get kind of upset that HS fans ignore the rest of the cast that isn’t Kit Connor so I’m happy to announce that after watching, my mom is officially a Joe Locke and Yasmin Finney girly.
She loved the whole cast but won’t stop talking about how good and lovely they both are whenever we talk about it 😊
Mind you I'm not the best at organizing my thoughts so apologies if it's disorderly!
I saw the webtoon comments saying that lsk is creepy and abusive which makes perfect sense bc of the way she was presented.
I don't think there's anything wrong in interpreting it that way, esp at this point in the story where the only known information abt his mother is from kdj himself (through flashback or his dialogue)
Because of this, i think we're more inclined to think of lsk as this manipulative parent who abandoned her own child bc we're viewing it from kdj's perspective (it's called omniscient "reader/dokja's viewpoint" for a reason). I think this also shows kdj being an unreliable narrator bc he's biased in his views.
Kdj is absolutely 100% valid in feeling that way towards his mother. Even if everything was done for him, it's not easy to forgive someone after being 'abandoned' for so long.
Aaahhhh!!!!! I love this messed up mother son relationship, it's so complex and I LOVE IT!! There's so much more to unpack here but maybe another time
This excerpt is from the book Elvis and Gladys. I love this description - “she knew nothing of moderation or half measures, nor was there anything halfhearted…about her.” They were just a couple impulsive human beings making their way in the world. Obviously this can easily lead to mistakes and regrets, but there is also something so beautiful and freeing about living completely in the moment and following your heart fully.
