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.

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

I'm going to have to go back and read Outsiders through PMMish and shrifty eyes.

I think it will be fun.

"You can't put a price on the joy of not giving a shit." -Zenkitty

To further destroy any pretense of intellectual street cred: do you do what I do

Having to re-read entire pages because of pretty flexing muscles? Um. No, I've never done that. t whistles

Although a big part of why I get growly is the combination of his physical type and physical competence with passion, smarts, and snark. I kinda lose it every time he goes into fight mode, stares certain death in the face, and says, "Ooh, hey, I think I can see my apartment from here."

It makes me want to write porny fic, just to see if I can get you two to react even a little like that.

Psst. Sean. When it comes to Dick, it doesn't even need to be porny.

Well, I mean, you know what I'm saying. Twelve! I am twelve.

I think it will be fun.

Just remember that while it is not necessary to wolf-whistle at panels containing the Dick, it certainly helps me get the bang for my bucks out of every issue.

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

Oh, yes. I mean, he's cocky *and* insecure, and just so very... Dick.

I love him.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

It's always fascinating for me to see which characters in a fandom take off in popularity. I totally get why Dick Grayson appeals, but there was a time when he could've been something like Scott Summers - the good son, protege, responsible group leader.

Marv Wolfman's treatment of the character on Teen Titans did a lot to establish Nightwing, but Robin has always been different from the average sidekick. He was named after Robin Hood, and always had that extra level of Erroll Flynn joie in battle. Also, the absolute confidence of his acrobatic background and fighting ability. Plus the smartass quipping.

Anyway, that was a fascinating interview with Devin.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Damned Teen Titans (comic, not 'toon). Sucked me right in. Good fucking writing, mang.

I now have issues 1-10.

And Kid Flash is a tool.

You know there's a cartoon version of the comic too. Which is kind of weird, but no weirder than the regular Batman and Batman Adventures running concurrently.

And there's a comic version of the Cartoon Network 'toon. Seriously.

Pardon my transposition, actually that's what I meant. Emmett's been reading it.
