Twenty-One | Terror Titans Leader | Arsenal [/div]
SO, if you're here you probably want to thread with Dick. Or you're curious. That's okay. That's what college is for (or your twenties,) nobody here will judge you. Seriously though, you should thread with him. He's a bit of a trainwreck, and that's putting it lightly. If you've read his application (which if you haven't the link is right HERE,) he's dealing with a bit. He's got dead daddy issues that he's trying to work through. The problem is that he's working through them by slaughtering people. Murder and mayhem. That fun stuff. I mean, technically speaking, he's killing bad guys. So he's a vigilante still, right? 

Anyways, there are definitely two versions of Dick. Before his father died, and after. Before his dad died he was a comical, sarcastic, lovable kid who was just trying to make a difference in the world around him. He lived to see the smile on the faces of others and would do anything to cheer somebody up. Now he just wants to watch the world burn. He thinks the most efficient way to save the world is to kill anybody who would harm it. The sarcasm is still there. A dark, dry humor has replaced the more playful one that had been present in every conversation. He's going down a path that is changing the very fabric of personality, and possibly forever.

PLOT POINTS

BLAST FROM THE PAST ➨ One of the easiest ways into a thread would be that of somebody who may have known him before the change. Hell, we could even post in the past before it. Likely candidates are other Titans of around the similar age (or members of the Titans West, don't worry, the wanted will be up soon enough. ) He's named after a certain Boy Wonder, and as most people know Dick, Roy, and Wally were pretty much BFFs before BFFs was a thing. So spawn of said characters are likely to have been very close with Dick. Maybe they want to try to help him get back to the person he was before? Maybe they want to see if the rumors of what he became were true?

LOOKING TO MAKE A NAME ➨ His identity is as matter of public record. Sometimes he wonders why he even wears mask anymore. Anyways, this makes him a bit of a target for anybody looking to try to make a name for themselves. Not exactly a smart thing to do when dealing with somebody who's very willing and eager to kill the people that attempt to cross him. This could even fall upon heroes. He isn't exactly walking the righteous path anymore. But be ready for a fight if you're trying to do so, as he isn't going to go down quietly.

TERROR TITANS, GO!? ➨ As stated earlier, he was a member of the Teen Titans West. After resurfacing, he formed the Terror Titans. While he is the leader, he doesn't exactly do much effective leading. He's usually too drunk or high to coherently form a plan. The group, currently, is pretty much a clusterfuck. It is, however, a group. He bankrolled a nice little hideaway for the group, and will occasionally lead them to missions. These missions usually tend to be the bar, or the liquor store, or to whatever place has the most nudity. Classy, right?

Of course, these aren't the only plot devices that could be used to thread with him. These are helpful suggestions. I do have an ultimate personal journey that Dick will be going on, but detailing it in here would kind of spoil the right, right? So take that.

KEY PEOPLE

Probably the only anchor in his life is his sister, Lysandra Harper, otherwise known as Artemis. She is a year younger than Dick and was also a member of the Titans West. She has a very similar powerset to that of her mother and aunt/grandmother/doppleganger mother, etc. She's usually the one the pulls his ass out of the fire when he gets too far gone. His mother should probably be mentioned as well, one Donna Troy, A.K.A. Wonder Woman, A.K.A. the current Queen of Paradise Island. They're not exactly on speaking terms since the incident.

okay, so, i've literally gotten zero sleep so far today and, well, despite that, i figured i should attack this. Now, I'm not going to even pretend that there is a possibility this will be coherent, as I'm half expecting it not to be. So if it isn't, then I will simply have to reword shit when I'm more... coherent. But anyhoo, I have two people for you, both falling under separate plot point areas: One being Blast from the Past, the other being Terror Titans Go?!

First up, Blast from the Past
Laurel Queen - Being the daughter of Oliver Queen, whether her relation to Dick is truly blood or not wouldn't really matter. Dick is her Nephew, and there is really nothing to it aside from that. Being that Dick is her nephew, I'm pretty sure that she's known him for the better portion of his life. So, with that being said, I'm pretty sure that she would have known him before he became a complete and utter sociopathic dickwad. Is that the right words to use for him? I'm pretty sure they are. I'm probably wrong though, who knows. And, being that he is family, i feel as though when she realizes just what kind of path he's started to travel down, she'll want to try and help lead him back onto the right one. [That being said, i do still want Dick to kill the Laurel Impostor when the time comes. Whether he knows she's the real thing or not, doesn't matter to me. We'll have to talk more on that closer to when the time comes.]

Second up Terror Titans, Go?!
Lucinda Anders - The idea of throwing her at the team originally started to form when you showed that outsiders image that had Arsenal, Red Hood, and (at least I'm pretty sure) Starfire on it. And, quite honestly, ever since seeing that picture, i've pretty much been wondering if the team could use it's own Tamaranean. She is hella racist, though seeing people that are seemingly like-minded would probably ease a bit of that. While she isn't a one hundred percent horrible person, she is no where near being a nice one either. Her naivity may be something of an amusement or an annoyance, not entirely sure, but I feel like she would be quite a good addition to the team. Plus, every team needs some sort of alien, right? Like I said, not entirely all together in my head so this all may look like crap but I wanna throw these two your way and talk plots with them. okay? okay!

[/font] ➨ This is definitely something that needs to happen. Especially the part about him killing her alternate self. "I knew it wasn't you, but I still kind of enjoyed killing somebody that had your face." I'd definitely say they knew each other before the fall, as they're pretty close in age. I imagine they probably even worked together at some point.

LUCY ➨ Yes, that was Starfire. After giving Red Hood and the Outlaws a chance, I did enjoy the book and the dynamic it presented. He'd probably welcome her into the group with open arms, and with an embarassing amount of flirtation. None of which subtle. Expect a 'Uranus' joke, she is an alien. Anyways, I think it would be fun. It would also be an interesting aspect if somebody picks up Lysandra, as then there would be two powerhouses on the team. I could definitely see him abusing the shit out of how naive she is. I can imagine him having some deep bruising from the beating that ensues after. ( Expect this www.youtube.com/watch?v=AA9WKwXz3JE.)
[/div][/ul][/ul][/ul][/blockquote]

Laurel Queen - Considering the age she started off and joined the Titans herself, yeah, i can definitely imagine that they've done something together, probably when she was still going by the name of Speedy. I actually quite look forward to him killing her. I shouldn't I know that I shouldn't, but I do and I don't know what that says about me xD Usually, I prefer to kill other people's characters but writing out deaths is also just so much fun so that is gonna be great. Don't imagine Laurel will be too pleased by the 'Still kind of enjoyed killing somebody that had your face." part, though. her nephew really is just such an ass, isn't he? We could possibly do a past thread with them sometime having to do some sort of work together. Of course, we'll be threading him killing her too, but i mean other stuff xD

Lucinda Anders - Aha, my memory isn't as bad as I thought it was! Quite pleased to know that. I don't think I've actually read anything with the Outlaws, something I'll have to do sometime after I get through my folder of other shit to read xD Someday, someday. Ahem, anyhoo, oh goodness, she still is trying to get an understanding of flirtation. She's spent a good bit of her life learning to be a fighter and pretty much being her mother's lap dog. She's been on Earth for maybe half of a year? Probably a little more now, and she has a very loose grasp over most things. We're talking about a girl who has probably seen the other side of bars more times because of 'public indecency' rather than for the crimes she's actually committed xD So the flirtation, at least at first, will probably be seen as rather confusing words and phrases that make quite literally no sense to her. But i can imagine that she will be learning rather quickly xD And, honestly, I wouldn't expect anything less than a 'Uranus' joke, or some other worldy joke out of Dick. Just from what I know about him so far. Let's be honest xD When she does start understanding better, though, yes, i imagine that he is going to end up having a hell of a lot of bruises starting to come up. Although, she probably wouldn't help matters much, considering her lack of interest in clothes most days... Especially if she has a day where she stays in the hideout or something. I usually imagine that she wears very minimal to know, so really, it's probably her own fault until she learns otherwise xD I guess the only real question is how to get her as apart of the team. It probably wouldn't be too farfetched for her to seek them out, thinking that, if she's going to be on this planet for a while, working with a team of some sort might actually be beneficial, ya know?

[/font] ➨ I definitely think a past thread would be fun between the two. It would be funny if confusion ensued with both of them having gone by 'Speedy.' Maybe he's on loan from the Titans West for a mission. Somebody yells out Speedy and they both look. xD


LUCY ➨ I think he'd do a mixture of being blatantly obvious, but also subtle to see what he can get away with. One day he just might yell across the house "Tits, yo. Tits." Next day he might keep tripping into her and trying to cop a feel. He's going to get hurt. Joking aside, I think I could see him taking a genuine liking to her. With her naivety, he might even become somewhat protective over her. In between moments of trying to slip her the D.
[/div][/ul][/ul][/ul][/blockquote]

Laurel Queen - They're gonna need to, like assign them numbers or refer to one Laurel as Blondie rather than Speedy while he's there. The confusion factor alone is going to make that one worth it. And writing out Laurel when she was young and, well, not a total bitch while in costume is gonna be interesting. Although, a part of me is not imagining that, after realizing there are two Speedy's there, there is always that guy who overdoes the joke. Someone'll get hit. Eh-hem. I think it would probably be best to do possibly before she became the leader of the team, which i think I said was when she was eighteen or so?

Lucinda Anders - Okay, gonna say this first. I sat her just snickering for a good five or so minutes at this. Like, I don't know if it's the lack of sleep or if it is genuinely the funniest shit ever but I just could not stop laughing. Like, I think it was how it started out and then there's that small moment of niceness in him possibly becoming protective and shit before just ending with that slipping her the D comment. I dunno, but made me die over here. Alright, I'm done with that. I think that, there will come a point, when she either just concludes that Dick is a clumsy fuck or she realizes he's doing it on purpose and if she realizes the later, it's possible that she'll hitting him a bit. A bit of a lot. And while part of me can also see her apologizing simply because he's her leader, most of her muse is like "No, if I hit him, then he clearly deserved it. I do not apologize to lesser beings than myself." I think I would really like to see this happen before Laurel stuff as, one Lucy's muse is usually stronger anyway, and two... just... the pure gold of it all is far more worth seeing first xD

Dinah Grayson -Blast from the past Well as you said, the man that is her father and the one he's named after was BFFs with Roy before there was really any such thing as a BFF. So at the very least they grew up together. She has her own issues and her own self destructive tendencies and on a really bad day, probably wishes she could murder a few people but obviously that would be BAD. Even if he's become a giant d-bag, she still considers him family and of course will worry about him. (she's used to dealing with Thomas, Mason, Owen and most shitty musicians, abrasive assholes don't seem to phase her much anymore). She also probably looks at him as the path her life could have gone down had she continued her own downward spiral after Barbara died, so a possible unique perspective for her.

Henri Batroc -Terror Titans Henri is an interesting one. She could, at the very least be a drinking buddy. At most, maybe part of his team. She does come with some interesting powers and will do just about anything for money. She's not super awesome at following orders but if she thinks it'll get her a big score or her next drink, she'll follow along. Also a person in a wheelchair is very useful in some situations.

[/font] ➨ Works for me. If she's around eighteen at the time of the thread, he'll be in his early teens. Fifteen or fourteen, I think? Not sure. But I definitely think that would work. He'd be the height of his jovial nature. No hints of the dark clouds that hang overhead. I can just see it now.


"Speedy, take point"

"Okay! Okay!"

"Wait, what? I said Speedy."

"We're both Speedy."

"But which one of you is our Speedy."

"Well that's rude. Why can't I be your Speedy?"

"I didn't mean it like that. I meant the Speedy who is a part of this team."

"Wait, so you're saying that he isn't a part of this team? That's rude."

-Pulls hair out.-


LUCY ➨ I'm super excited for these two to post together and see how it goes. I'm sure that Dick's heart stories about her people from his dad. Roy did have to watch as Dick and Kori did the dance for 9393943 years. Not to mention seen her in the buff (as did almost every Titan ever to go through the roster.) I think these two will be fun,


DINAH ➨ We could definitely work the past angle with these two. I'm assuming they were close at one point. Maybe even was one of her first crushes. That seems like it would make sense giving how close their parents were. I wouldn't let him know about the whole watching to see what her life could of been like. That would bring up a lot of bitterness and potential a plasma blast.


WHEELS ➨ Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Dick is going crazy. She's 'Wheels.' Every team needs a 'Wheels.' He's just going to quote American Dad nonstop and refer to the two of them as 'Wheels and the Legman.' That's a thing. Dick could always use a drinking buddy, and she really wouldn't have to worry about him lording his leadership or anything. He really doesn't do much with it. Occasionally he puts together a coherent plan, but usually they're just knocking off places while out on a bender.
