When you feel like the third wheel in your own marriage…
Linda: Wally, you’re grown men. You and Dick don’t have to do everything together.
Wally: I know, that’s why I’m spending tonight with you.
Best buddies can be tough competition, Lin.

I just saw how many followers this blog has as of today, and I’m in awe.
I have all those brilliant film, TV, and song writers who came up with such amusing, deep, or iconic lines to thank. I’m really just borrowing their work and creating a context around them based on comic canon (and, occasionally, my own headcanons). It won’t always be accurate, but the point is to make it fun and imaginable.
I see a quote, and 90% of the time, I’ll instantly have a character in mind to “speak” it and a situation in which the conversation could happen. That’s how rich the DC Universe is. Years and years of material to draw inspiration from.
I do re-word some dialogue to fit the context I want (or because the grammar seems uncomfortably off to me).
I love the slice-of-life kind of things, and I do imagine that even superheroes have very mundane, domestic (even silly) moments that give them joy in between those of chaos and conflict.
So, for those of you who follow because you’re just as amused, inspired, and fangirl-y as I am, thanks for dropping by!
(A shout out to those who support my other Tumblr blog, a-wayne-at-heart, as well!)
Reblogging this because, wow. I’m astounded again. Thank you again. 🙂

When you’re married to a speedster…
Linda: Wally, are you ever going to forgive me?
Wally: Lin, I’m obligated to keep loving you, so I will take my rage out on my own body.
Wally: Let’s go to Big Belly Burger.
Prenatal check-ups be like…
Wally: *picks up a surgical instrument*
Wally: Quack, quack. Quack, quack. Quack.
Linda: Honey, that opens my cervix.
Iris: Cosmic treadmill?
Barry: Only to go back and fall in love with you all over again.
When you’re a speedster with hypermetabolism and a day job…
Barry: Nothing takes your mind off your stomach like a bloody crime scene.
When Dick invited him to a trip to the Kent Farm with Damian…
Wally: I don’t wanna meet anything on Monday that I’m gonna eat on Friday.
Because time travel is just another Tuesday to speedsters…
Jay: What’s the matter?
Barry: I’m getting a call from myself.
Jay: Answer it. See what you want.
When asked his most favorite after-meal snack that Linda ever packed for him…
Wally: It was a pizza stuffed with little pizzas. And the crusts of those little pizzas were stuffed with chocolate.
When you’re hungry, and impatient, and hypermetabolic sans your energy bars, and still in a freakin’ Titans meeting…
Wally: Time is money, money is power, power is pizza, and pizza is knowledge. Let’s go!
