Her name. It's a woman.
Oh. Nice. Dearth of them.
I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Grrarrrgh. The amount of lust I have for a fictional comic book character (and especially the way Devin writes him) is kind of startling.
And I believe I shall exploit this bit of insight ruthlessly.

Interesting that she's never read Miller's Daredevil.
I keep thinking I should mention to my local comics dealers that there's been this big shift in fandom writing about the bat-fam. Do you think they already know? Obviously there are tons of bat-titles and TPBs.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I *know!*
Growlpantwoof and all that. It's kind of embarrassing.

My love for Bruce is dysfunctional and cerebral, with moments of pure lust.
But Dick? My switch is pretty much always stuck on t GROWL MMMYUMYUM BOY! t GROWL WANT BOY! WANTWANTWANT!
Oh, well. Lord help me if I ever meet a bendy boy like Nightwing.

To further destroy any pretense of intellectual street cred: do you do what I do, and on the panels that really show off the pretty flexing muscles, just kind of blur out the words as though you've just mentally inserted a thin layer of drool between you and the text?
Because I've had to go back and re-read whole pages as a result.

Dear god, you two are funny as hell.

Dear dog....
That little exchange between Plei and shrift right there?
It makes me want to write porny fic, just to see if I can get you two to react even a little like that.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
Snerk. All I can think of is this exchange in Outsiders:
Drugged-Up Cultist Girl to Nightwing: You're cute.
Metamorpho: He knows.

I'm going to have to go back and read Outsiders through PMMish and shrifty eyes.
I think it will be fun.
