i liked ttc bc of nico lmao

this might be controversial but if battle of the labyrinth is your fav book you care about the metaphors, if the last olympian is your fav you just care about percabeth, if the lightning thief is your fav you care about family, if the sea of monsters is your fav you care about adventure, if titan’s curse is your fav you actually care about the plot

Me trying to not go insane realizing that it’s 4 pm so soon it will be like 6 pm and I’ll have to start ‘winding down’ for the evening and then it’ll be 8 and then 10 and it’ll be time to do my evening activities and then it’ll be midnight and then it’ll be time for me to go to bed again just so I can wake up and be ever conscious of the passage of time and how meaningless it has become for another day and try to prevent myself from going insane again

Batman fun fact! Did you know that Scarecrow’s toxin doesn’t always cause fear? Sometimes it does the opposite! In Detective Comics #571, he wields a variant that completely inhibits the biochemical fear response, preventing people from feeling any concern for themselves or using basic common sense. He runs a racket administering it to star athletes, who take huge risks and get badly injured. Then they’re willing to cough up a lot for an antidote. Batman and Robin - here Jason Todd - catch on, but Bruce is dosed with the reverse fear toxin; since his intelligence is his greatest strength, being too overconfident and reckless to think twice about anything makes him his own worst enemy.

This premise was adapted in the Batman: The Animated Series episode “Never Fear”. There we see that with no fear of losing his moral integrity, Bruce becomes cold and merciless to criminals. Robin - here Tim Drake - has to catch somebody he leaves to fall off a building, tie him up to stop him endangering himself and others and give him the antidote to prevent him murdering Scarecrow.

But in the comic book, Jason is kidnapped by Scarecrow. (He gets gassed, and hallucinates Bruce dying and telling him that it was his fault.) He isn’t around to keep Bruce in check as he goes to rescue him through a series of death traps that he can’t resist cutting it as close as possible in. So how does Bruce not go off the deep end? How does he not lose sight of what’s important? Not lose himself?

Because even a drug designed to shut down stress at the most fundamental level can’t overpower his true worst fear. The Dark Knight might feel fearless…

but a parent never is.
