You ever hear that old chestnut about how most people neglect the part of the story of Icarus where he also had to avoid flying too low, lest the spray of the sea soak his feathers and cause him to fall and drown? You ever think about how different the world would be if Icarus died that way instead? If the idiom was to Fly To Close To The Sea? A warning against playing it far too safe, about not stretching your wings and soaring properly? You ever think about how Icarus died because he was happy?

With some contingency plans in place, the emergency nanny arrived at the Batcave just when there were no bats left to provide any context for this mysterious favor. But hey, Billy wasn’t about to let this opportunity to be a Robin’s babysitter pass him by!
Damian: I need to carry my sword with me at all times.
Billy thought, "Could it be like my emotional support plush? Of course it is! So then…"
Marvel: I wouldn’t say no to that.
Damian: And also my ninja stars and sais.
Marvel: Of course, Robin!.
"Positive reinforcement, that’s Batson! You’re a good babysitter," Billy thought.
Damian: And we should also bring the Batmobile… I’ll drive…
This last part was delivered with less conviction, but that didn’t stop it from being appreciated by our hero in vibrant red.
Marvel: Do you know how to drive?
Damian: It’s child’s play; of course, I’ve been driving since I was six.
Marvel: That’s amazing, Robin! What a relief! I only know how to ride a bicycle.
With great bewilderment and a slightly agape jaw, Damian climbed into the Batmobile, fulfilling a wish he had held for months.
He couldn’t help but think that he should have the Captain as his regular babysitter.
It was his first experience with a babysitter in the strictest sense of the word. Are all babysitters like this?
That thought stayed with Damian all the way until they arrived to assist the Batfamily, alongside an exceptionally furious Batman.
Nothing is normal with them🙄
(I promise I know how to do serious drawings but 4 mins sketchs are just so fun to do)

Actually yeah it’s insane to me how Luffy carries Law around in Dressrosa and Law just. Lets him. Like he could easily struggle out of Luffy’s grip but nope he goes full boneless and allows Luffy to carry him like a sack of potatoes. And this isn’t a brief thing either Luffy literally lugs him around over the course of like 20 episodes and Law’s so quiet that sometimes I forget he’s even there but then I remember and I’m like OH. MY GOD?? He’s STILL draped over Luffy’s arm like a fucking coat. And it’s so fucking funny when I look over and see him with his hood up hanging over Luffy like this
Like. He’s going through it rn. He’s got zero dignity left in him to care
Y'know I was just thinking about it and Batmans whole thing is that dumbass "I am Vengance" shtick right? Its funny cause he never avenged his own son yet he dares to call himself Vengeance.
And if Jason perceives his death anniversary completely differently from how his family do?
Jason, against the common belief, canonically doesn't talk about his death that much, and when he does, he feels like it is not something people need to dwell on — it is how they view and interpret his death, and the aftermath, that bothers him.
So, maybe on his death anniversary, Jason doesn't want to mourn. He wants to live. So he does. He visits his favourite places in the Gotham, chats with people he had missed, enjoys his day, and breathes, breathes, b r e a t h e s.
But once he steps in the Manor for a minute that day?
It is nothing but a kingdom of the grief.
Bruce is locked up in the Cave, straight in front of the memorial. Dick is not even around, and Jason takes a wild guess that he is visiting his grave in the meanwhile. Alfred maniacally cleans up in the library over and over, ignoring other duties. Even Tim, Tim, who technically has nothing to do with all of that, takes after others (almost instinctively), and acts along with a strange, dreadful atmosphere in the house.
And Jason is irritated, pissed off, but mostly hurt.
He is literally right here.
But once again, it changes absolutely nothing. It never does. Really.
When I first saw a clip of One Piece Fan Letter it had no subtitles and it was the scene where Luffy yelled 'Set sail!' then cut to Nami's fan, at the time I thought this was like a small alternate universe or something were Luffy meets Nami's fan and was calling out her name, so that whole time I thought her name was 'Makota' and I'm attached to the name now so I petition that Nami's fans name be Makota just for the heck of it
