Don’t Argue With Me And I Refuse To Elaborate

Me in the corner b4 the new writer took over for NW: why is this happening? Who cares? Ew? Is that Bea?? Poor Bea… ewwwww. Why is he happy? And stupid? Why is he happy and stupid? …why is Bruce holding his hand? Why are the titans holding his hand? Why is babs holding his hand? Where is Damian? The dog is cute? Dick is not nearly stable enough for a dog? Ewwwwww? Oh HI JASON!!!? Is that Yuji itadori??? From JJK?? Ewwwwwww

Me after the new writer: crashoutcrashoutcrashoutcrashoutcrashoutcrashoutcrashoutcrashoutcrashout???? MY KING IS GONNA CRASH OUT??? He can do things alone again? Crashout??? When ??? They KILLED A KID IN FRONT OF HIM?? Pissed off at police state Grayson is my beloved hi yes hello???? CHEMO REFERENCE??? CIRCUS??? My boy is so cool??? Crash out. Preferably now…. Please

I think Dick should be allowed to bite whatever DC character sexualizes him next :))))) as a treat :))))

if i had to explain what tumblr is like i’d only show this

Plz my friends actually stopped finding me annoying since I can talk about something other than Dick Grayson

Let me get it out

bring back tumblr ask culture let me. bother you with questions and statements

I know he is legit suicidal at that point and the entire city of Bludhaven is being erased from the map but this is so cool. So badass.

This is one of those panel I would die to see animated. Are you kidding ?

"Oh Bruce is a good dad if you think he's a bad dad you don't engage in canon"

YALL BE SO ASTRONOMICALLY FR.

like Bruce loves his weird collection of Bat themed children but ffs he is a C- at best.

Okay but what does “Grayson is too handsome” EVEN MEAN?

Like does he mean dick doesn’t know how to flirt bc he’s good looking? Or has never asked someone out bc he gets asked out? Or? Gets away with more bc he’s good looking??

SOMEONE OLZ explain

This genuinely bothers me more than Jason rizzless Todd getting bitches and Steph being too female?

Hell would freeze before Damian going for advice to Tim, especially when Dick exists and he would be so much better on dating advice.

Also, Stephanie is "too female"? What the hell is that sexist bullshit supposed to mean?

Damian would go to Stephanie for advice before going to Tim. He used to be close to her but DC writers are forgetting it.

SEE

This is where I get annoyed bc I love cracking jokes about dicks dating life

But this is how I 100% feel about it

Dick loves flirting, he’s a flirty guys I’m pretty sure he’s flirted with everyone from raptor to batwoman (before ID reveal)

Dick and his friends flirt with one another all the time

But like dick has has 3-4 very serious relationships and only 2 have been genuinely consistent throughout his 80 year tenure as a character

Tim went through that in a week

And I feel like people seem to equate dicks friendly flirty personality + being canonically very very good looking as sleeping around.

Now personally I live laugh love demisexual Grayson it’s my drug feed it to me

But if you want/headcanon him sleeping around fine live your life

But be SO FR OKAY the scenes where dick is explicitly like “what are you doing”

“I don’t like this”

“I feel uncomfortable”

Are very obviously not him cracking a joke. It’s just him being like a normal person who does not want people looking at him like a ribeye

-oh but dick slept with babs b4 his wedding to Kori. Okay and babs has been pregnant with Bruce’s child, and been married to Tim.

Dc writes out of character shit to keep the plot moving we been knew, literally everyone agrees it’s not in character for him and it’s never been in character for him

I usually don't talk too much about it cuz it's kinda an awful trope to be honest, but, I was seeing this so much lately, and I just can't with this-

The amount of people who think Dick has had many partners and is a playboy when many of the women (and some men) they use as examples are women who have kissed or touched him WITHOUT his consent is... It's horrible.

I don't know why people think it's normal or a "reward" that so many people have crossed Dick's boundaries just because they tend to portray these people as visually attractive.

Today I just saw a compilation of this kind of situations, and there were 35 photos, and many more were missing. Each image was more uncomfortable than the last.

TW: I'll post some of the comic panels on this topic, they get progressively more uncomfortable, it's nothing that explicit, but still.

In the photos you can see the @ of the account where I got the panels from.

There are many more (like Catalina or Liu panels), that are even more explicit situations, but I think this gets the point across.

I saw people trying to justify Dick being a playboy by saying that maybe he hypersexualizes himself in response to trauma (a real response, it can happen), but this would make more sense if the authors did it on purpose and with that intention, but that is not the case. They don't sexualize Dick's character to give depth to his trauma, they barely even talk about it AT ALL.

So that definitely doesn't excuse it, at least not as a justification from the authors, now if they use it as HC it makes more sense, but only thanks to the fans' interpretation. If it were entirely up to the authors, there is no reason for Dick to be sexualized, not beyond fanservice.

And I hate it.

It's very different to create a sexy character than to sexualize them to the point of objectification.

Listen my simple rule for nightstar, Robstar, Dickori, Dickory etc

Is

Kory is objectively better looking

Dick is objectively prettier

(Kori can also pick Dick up like a couple of grapes but that’s secondary- (no it’s not))

Kon: If I was gay, it'd be for Tim or Bart. Tim: If I was gay, it'd be for Bart or Kon. Bart: If I was gay, it'd be for Kon or Tim. Cassie: OH MY FUCKING GOD I HATE YOU ALL
