Saw This And Thought Of My Dear Jeanne.

Saw this and thought of my dear Jeanne.

Haven't done anything DC-related for a while so here's Dick and some headcanons.

Funnily enough, Dick Grayson is by far the most perplexing character in the Bat family (for me). He's been through a lot, seen a lot, done a lot, and yet he's still a shining beacon of hope and goodness for everyone in his life. He isn't possessed by obsessions for vengeance or rage, nor the trauma he's experienced. While the death of his parents and those close to him has certainly dictated some aspects of his life, it has never dragged him down into the darkness like it has others. It does, however, allow his to deeply understand people and their needs (see his relationship with Damian when Dick was Batman, how close he is with Jason, etc.).

And therein lies what makes Dick one of the best heroes (in my humble opinion). The overwhelming ability to care for others and the pure desire to help where he can - that, right there, is Dick.

In the darkness, there will always be light. It's surprising to see, especially in as dark of places as Bludhaven or Gotham.

Sorry for the long paragraphs lol. I have a lot to say.

I realized this didn't actually publish and was stuck as a draft for like 4 days so - MCtober week 2 prompt 3 (late edition!).

Jeanne and Sebastian! It doesn't take long for these two to warm up to each other and create a pretty close bond. I figure Seb found her incredibly interesting after she kicked his butt in their first duel and, much to her annoyance, Jeanne found him entertaining and charming. Thus the abomination of their friendship came to be! Filled to the brim with sarcasm and chaos! Hopefully nothing terrible will happen as a result and we'll all be happy in the end!

Off topic but have you ever looked at a picture and just known that there was something wrong with the person in it? I feel that every time I see a picture of Casey Anthony. Even before I knew what she had done (warning for anyone wanting to look it up, it's awful), just seeing a photo of her makes my skin crawl. Literally reaffirmed by belief in human souls from seeing someone without one.

Let's gooooooo

MCtober Week 2, babyyyyy! These past couple weeks have been insanity so not a lot of art- making has been happening, but the madness has passed and now I may rest. Here's prompts 1 and 2 for this week:

Study habits: Jeanne will read the assigned test and take notes. Then never look at them again. She usually remembers the important stuff... usually... if it's interesting. It used to drive her muggle teachers insane, but magical folk seem to be much more tolerant of it for some reason.

In Magical History: I will take this opportunity to quote my own fanfic here because no one can stop me:

Jeanne quickly understood why everyone had been so unhappy about having History of Magic in the mornings. The classroom was obscenely warm, and… damn, was Professor Binns dry. However, what Professor Binns lacked in enthusiasm, he made up for in wonderfully in-depth knowledge.

After an hour of doing her best not to fall asleep for fear of missing the very interesting information Professor Binns was droning about, they were released and off to Charms.

She tries very hard to stay awake. She really does. But holy moley, is it difficult. She enjoys history as a subject, especially that of the magical world (it's far more interesting and slightly less depressing than muggle world history in her opinion), so, while it's an uphill battle, it's one she's willing to fight. Assuming she hasn't spent the night fighting statues or nearly getting killed by giant spiders.
