I just realized I can't just say Danny is from the 90's because DC has a sliding time scale and the 90's basically happened 5 years ago in the DCU

At least I don't have to get hung up over what media Danny was alive to see and what he wasn't, because comic book time is all flibbity flabbity

lololol comic book timelines

angriestbird: right?! Just try and figure that shit out!

I got my Check In post done. Working on the Tour/Open post

The Tour bit has been done for a while I'm just struggling with the open posts. They feel so uninteresting but I also can't think of how to spice them up.

Now I'm at the point where just like, fuck it. Better done and boring then sitting in my drafts for the rest of forever

I have such a hard time writing interesting open posts I feel you

I sorta fudge it because I love Tim’s random music preferences and skater phase

Open post done!

SeeMarieRun: I was tempted to having a skating option but I know nothing of skating of the lingo

I do miss when Tim was more a nerdy skater kid. I still think we were robbed of Tim and Bart skating together.

I'm going to sleep now but I'll tag back later! I'm still open to Jason and Danny having been friends but the friendship was still new or newish by the time Jason died if you're okay with that too!

Alas, DC. Don't drop random tidbits like that with no follow-through

angriestbird: Yee! Sounds good to me!

I do still wonder if we would have gotten follow through if Jason hadn't died T-T or if we just never would have gotten the tidbit at all.

Yeah, not a clue. DC was apparently caught off-guard by the immediate aftermath and there was this awkward and relatively short period after Death in the Family where Jason just wasn't mentioned at all in any issues

You wanted Nico at the comic book shop right

angriestbird: Oof! I had no idea they did that, they REALLY did Jason dirty! Holy shit!

SeeMarieRun: yeah, if you're still up for that

The CONFUSING HISTORY of JASON TODD - Fans HATED Him...Good video overall but timestamped it to specifically about Death in the Family

Ooo, thank you! Love when you can find a good comic history video

Yeah! I like the Casually Comics channel overall. She also does a lot of videos covering the Silver Age because that era's such a treasure trove of nutty stories

angriestbird: I'll have to check out more of her channel. Always looking for good comic youtubers.

Hmmm...I wish Games had been more forthcoming about the nanites Danny was infected with and what happened with those. Like, did they get flushed from his system? were they just disabled? Or does he live with chronic pain now?

the part of me that loves angst sort of likes the idea that he just learned to live with the chronic pain, but the lazy part of me doesn't want to do research on that.

So I'm leaning toward a middle ground of 'has some chronic pain in what's left of his arms due to the damage they caused on top of the explosion, but the nanites were largely purged/deactivated'
