i'm gonna make this awful

i have so many options it's glorious

i could have ravi. i could have the many, many people he killed and whose livelihoods he destroyed during the year of blood.

i could make it more worse tho

because in damian's mind, like, he has def wronged the people closest to him. ones who hurt him and ones who cared for him

could have nightwing, who he wronged by not being there to save him from death (by getting himself killed) and then being alive when it should be dick

could have talia, who raised him the way she did and who hurt him, let him be killed, let him be replaced and hurt his replacements, but he still deep down feels guilty over choosing to be robin over her

(he'd wanted her to accept him and his choices, and he's a kid, it hurts to betray your parent)

and, best of all : )))) i could have the zombie batman

during the "record on repeat"

talking about bad blood, how damian was the worst thing to happen to the wayne fam, how he never wanted or imagined a child like him being his own, this huge violation just by existing

THAT WOULD BE SO FUN Y E S

idk if anybody'd wanna play that with me but heck yes i'm gonna write a solo for it at the least

i just have like. this mental image

of damian and talia walking down the street, normal as can be

perfectly silent

perfectly poised

because this is how it was

it maybe too early in the morning for me to actually be coherent about this but it's Good Awful Suffering

oh man

i love ghost-y events uhuhu

def planning on talia's mirage at least -- she'll probs haunt him to all hell for that brief lil window

suddenly: stunningly gorgeous woman in the house, seated like a queen

"who's that??" "my mom /:<"
