kane chronicles stuff yay

remembering how reyna was shocked at the amount of pain she felt when she was giving nico her strength for a brief moment because it was even greater than the pain she felt from her entire legion fighting against polybotes and drained her even more than sustaining scipio across the atlantic. he’s just 14. he should be graduating middle school/starting highschool, not keeping the pain and anguish of more than a legion of romans in battle inside of him AND having misery herself say he’s perfect.

rick what the fuck.

Recommeded reading for Dick Grayson / Robin and Nightwing

This is an updated repeat of a couple of lists with reading recommendations with Dick as Robin and Nightwing (Pre-Flashpoint) that I’ve made earlier. But since I wrote them as answers to asks, the posts don’t have a headline, and I find that they can be easy to miss (for me, when I want to look something up…) So I thought I might as well make a new, single post of them.

The stories are in what I imagine would be an in-universe chronology. They are from all periods, ignoring that the Golden/Silver age stories and Bronze/modern age stories have at times been considered two different universes. Most of them are stories that, at the time of their publishing, were canon and in continuity. None is explicitly Elseworld, so you can certainly imagine that they have happened ;-)

To be honest, not all of these comics are examples of great storytelling. Older superhero comics, for instance, are definitely something else compared to modern comics, for better and for worse. I’ve picked some because they are “the first time” or significant in some way (e.g. the first time Dick was almost killed, when Bruce has to fight to keep custody, an infamous fight between Dick and Bruce, the most well-known different origin stories, panels that are often quoted); others because they have a cute or fun moment. I have also included some books that I don’t like myself but are well-known.

Storytelling has changed a lot since Dick was Robin. Back in the Golden and Silver age, with very few exceptions, comics were stand-alone short stories. In later decades, it’s usually arcs that span at least a couple of issues and some stories have consequences for years.

Dick has been an active team member since the 1960s, and he has arguably been at his best in some team titles, but I still don’t have a lot of team books here. I find it difficult to, off the top of my head, recall any “special Dick issues”.

Obviously, these are very personal preferences, and the list is based on what I’ve read and remembered best.

Robin the Boy Wonder. Detective Comics # 38 (The original origin story. There has been maaany more since then – I’ve made a list just with origin stories….) (1940).

Batman: Year Three. Batman # 436-439. (An origin story where Dick spent some time at a nice orphanage before he came to Bruce.) (1989)

Robin Annual vol 2 # 4. (Another origin story, where the Gotham authorities remove Dick him from the circus, and he is put in the Gotham City’s Youth Center. Not my preferred but it’s well known.) (1995)

The Gauntlet. The Batman Chronicles #1. (The test before Batman let Dick start out as Robin.) (1997)

Grimm. Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight #149-153. (A story set when Dick is new as Robin and still uncertain about his place. For a while, he wants to leave Batman and stay in a children’s underground paradise.) (2002)

Robin: Year One. (Traumatic events during Dick’s first year as Robin. He was nearly beat to death by Two-Face. When Bruce said he was not permitted to continue as Robin, Dick ran away because he didn’t think there was a place for him at the Manor any more.) (2001)

The case of the honest crook. Batman #5. (1941)

Date Night

Jason looked at Leo, his boyfriend was laying on the bed, a white towel around his hips, his hair drooping water, limbs extended on the mattress.

"Leo, you are drenching the bed."

"Shut up, corazón."

"Dress, the date is tonight."

"The boy is head over heels for you, and I'm charming enough to make him fall for me."

Jason sighed, seeing Leo putting his clothes, not too elegant, but not casual; the blond boy combed his hair, judging the image in the mirror.

He had been the boyfriend of Leo for years, since high school, and he loves him, with all his heart, but he felt in love with other people, Leo too, and now, they were enamored of the same boy.

Nico di Angelo was fascinating, handsome, dark hair, sweet brown eyes, light skin and freckles, soft lips, both, Leo and Jason, dying for kissing it, he was a sweet boy, silent but joyful, kind, smartass, creative and mysterious.

Jason felt hard for him, the first time he saw him, helping a stray kitten during a storm, talking sweetly, running with the cat to a dry place.

Leo started to see Nico with rose-tinted glasses slowly, when Jason began to hang out with the Italian boy, at first he was distant, but the time passed and he met the real di Angelo, sweet and thoughtful.

Now they get a date, both of them, the same night.

"Do you think Nuco really likes me?"

Leo was stretching his t-shirt, his hands moving all around his body, curling his hair, tapping his tights, chewing the lower lip, jumping on his toes, anxious.

"He always sees you with heart in the eyes and loves to listen to you."

Kissing his cheek, Jason went off the room, grabbing their jackets, smiling at the choice of Leo.

"Go big or go home?"

"Nico said I look good on the jacket."

"You look good on everything."

Holding hands, they walked to Nico's house, smiling uncomfortably at Hazel.

"Your boyfriends are here." The girl shouted, sending a wink to the boys.

"Shut up Hazel," Nico walked outside, his cheeks blushing "Or I won't cover you the next time you sneak out."

The door closed hard, Nico was seeing the pavement, his hands behind his back.

"Hi," muttered, "Sorry for Hazel, I know we're not in a relation…"

"Yet" interrupt Leo "We're not official yet"

Jason extended his hand, smiling when Nico hold it, the young boy holding Leo's with his other hand, the three of them walking, sharing about their day.

Shortly they were in a restaurant, Italy's flags hanging off the ceiling, pictures of Venetia in the walls.

"This is an Italian restaurant?"

"A Venetian," corrected Leo "good food, nice music, charming people, and the talk Venetian."

The smile of Nico made the boys happy, Leo winking at Jason.

"Told you, he loves it."

"Thanks."

Promptly they ordered, Nico talked about Venice, describing his favorite places, sharing stories about his life, his voice full of nostalgia.

"Sorry," mumbled Nico, when they were walking to his home "I talked a lot."

"I love it when you talk about the things you like," said Jason, a soft smile on his lips.

"You don't have to say sorry." added Leo "If you're happy talking about your hometown, we're happy listening."

Blushing, Nico pulled Leo, holding the boy's face, kissing him fast and soft, hugging him, hiding his head on the crock of the neck, giggling.

"Jay Jay is jealous," muttered Leo on Nico's ear, kissing his cheek.

Nico turned, hugging Jason by the hips, letting the blond kiss his lips, a sweet pressure, the hands stroking the hair of Nico.

"We like you, a lot."

Leo hugged the hips of Nico, kissing the scruff, Jason was leaving butterfly kisses on his face.

"Me too."
