ALL I’M SAYING IS THAT did Bruce raise Dick? Yes and no. He was like an older brother who stepped up. And as he grew as an adult and felt more comfortable being an adult with a child in his care, he changed. but Dick didn’t stay a child, he grew up.
Is he Dick’s brother yes and no. Is he Dick’s father yes and no. Is he Dick’s friend sometimes yes!!!!!! sometimes no.
Are they inescapably close to each other and bound together not by grief but by the strength of seeing each other grow and nurturing kindness in a world that is cruel? Did they make a difference in this world? Even if that difference is only for each other? Yes.
I just wrote 8 pages when I haven't written in months and was beginning to think I'd never be able to again. Idk what it is, but I am sharing and manifesting this energy for every writer who sees this. May you write 8 quality pages effortlessly and find joy writing once more

A cute thing I noticed: in his human form Monty still perches on stuff like a bird. Like specifically in that scene where Esther tells him to try harder and he's just perched at the other end of the table.
Watched the one Doom Patrol episode with the dead boy detectives in it yesterday and I still can't get over their method for "astral projection". This version of Edwin has my heart.
