What If I Was Bloody And Beaten On My Knees While You (brainwashed) Tried To Kill Me And Instead Of Begging

btw if this is actually dobby for real and forever then I'm beyond pissed that we didn't get an open casket everyone can go say their goodbyes scene. I know I know contagious yadayada who fucking cares. either handwave it or murk him on a different emergency. ffs

More thoughts on Clark fantasizing about sweaty Bruce "in a friend way":

The reason this lasts so long is coz every time Clark considers that maybe this behaviour isn't normal, he looks over at Bruce who's doing the exact same thing and thinks "nah, this is how friends act, totally bros"

He's memorising his heartbeat and scent? Bruce has already studied every inch of his body in great detail multiple times

He's interested in learning more about Bruce's parents and childhood? Bruce has been learning to speak kryptonian and studying the culture for years now

He treats the bat kids like his own kids? Bruce literally buys the bank his parents owe money to so they can keep the farm

He stares at the man's scars for a bit too long in the changing rooms? Bruce just full on looks him in the eye while he strips down then continues on like nothing happened

This man has not only matched his freak, he's doubled it and put a batsymbol on it

Clark has a memory etched into his mind of Bruce with his smudged black eyeshadow and big blue eyes and sweaty damp hair after patrol (a state he's only ever seen him in twice) and ever since the cowl got the upgrade with the blank white lenses (five years ago) he's been mourning the loss of that post mission look and silently seething, praying for the eyeliner to make a comeback.

At no point in this has he considered his feelings for Bruce might be a bit more than platonic

I thought you went to Texas.

he has the kind submissive and breedable aura you only see in diocletian-era male christian martyrs.

i know ana isn't actually coming back but what i wouldn't give for her and eddie to run into each other, have some awkward ex small talk, and then for eddie to somehow let it slip that he and buck are living together now, cuing an "oh! oh that's... well, i always kind of suspected. i'm really happy for the both of you. i mean it" from ana that forcefully realigns all of eddie's chakras at once

I feel like Buck and Eddie keep fighting because they’re not kissing. They obviously have so many feelings for each other but they dont understand them and they dont know how to navigate expressing them so they keep coming out as messy and causing fights. In conclusion, these two bitches just need to kiss.

buck goes to athena sometime after the funeral, once he's finally realized his feelings. he talks to her about how he feels somewhat guilty, because he'll never really know if bobby ever approved of eddie, and tommy was really the only partner he ever had that bobby approved of. and athena laughs, before going into another room and giving him a sealed envelope dated like.. two months after eddie started working in the 118 with paperwork for filing a relationship, the only blank spaces being the signature and the date. she tells him that bobby had always wanted to slip them into their lockers the day after he found out.
