I know a lot has happened in today's leak and I don't want to be one of those people who focus only on their favorite character, but this issue was honestly so infuriating. This "angry arrogant brat who puts his father on a pedestal" portrayal of Damian is soooooo fucking outdated, has Zdarsky even picked any Damian's comic from the last 8 years?
Have you read the first issue of B&R 2023 last month? Damian was slamming his door on Bruce's face each time he tried making small talk with him, Robin 2021? Bruce was literally chasing Damian and begging for his forgiveness for an entire year? There's really no logical reason why Damian would be so fiercely protective of Bruce or passionately fight on his side, especially considering how Bruce is currently acting, but to have him be so aggressive and condescending toward the others is so regressive and degrading toward his character.
Like I know Tim is his favorite, we can tell by how he had Bruce listing all the things that make Tim better than the other Robins as well as having Tim literally descending in an angelic light to save Bruce just a couple of issues ago, but Damian's cameo in this was so unnecessary and probably happened so that Tim's writers can once again make Tim look good by putting other characters down.
But hey, they had Tim hugging Damian at the end so lets all aww at their "brotherism" and ignore everything else.
Ao3 is down I'm going to fucking kill myself, which I'd really rather not because that will activate like 5 different suicide pacts, which will in turn aclimate like 23 more suicide pacts which will turn into a whole suicide pact chain reaction and I just think that'd be kind of messy is all

Luke's monologue hits so much harder since they spent literally the whole season emphasizing how unfair and neglectful the gods are. Like he doesn't seem as much of a villain as he did in the book?! AND they had Annabeth listening in?! All I can hear is Luke's voice echoing "she's my little sister..." in my head over and over and over and I want to curl up into a ball and die.
anakin skywalker + The Spin
at this point im gonna add "professional mourner" to my indeed profile because i only open up tumblr to becry the fate of my fallen beloved (ao3) to the masses
the fact the percy IMMEDIATELY apologized after scratching Luke was so perfect; just to show how much he didn't want to hurt Luke bc he still wants to trust him, to believe theres still good in him. And then Luke turning right around and striking back at a literal 12 yo with such aggression just goes to show how different they are
"down for maintenance" i refreshed the page like a hopeless and sick person
