Batman: This undercover mission is highly critical, I expect everyone to come undercover as civilians.
Shazam, raising his hand: uh
Batman: You don’t have to raise your hand. We are all adults here.
Shazam: Cool cool- good to know. Anyways, my suit doesn’t come off.
Superman: what
Green Arrow: How the fuck does that work.
Shazam: It’s kinda just glued on?
Please, PLEASE expand on the Kafei being Terminan (?) Link idea. I have already drawn fanart of it--
Ravio, Kafei, and Link are all part of a matched set; each of them possesses the spirit of courage that rests within their world, whether or not they realize it.
Ravio, we've already been shown, mirrors Link in his origins.
In A Link Between Worlds, he serves as Lorule's hero, under its princess. He collects items across the world in the hopes of aiding Hyrule's hero (for a price, of course. Loruleans need to secure their own safety before others), and he refuses to betray the trust of innocent people for his own gain.
The main difference between Ravio and Link is the Lolian's personality.
While Link is usually quiet and reserved, Ravio is loud, outgoing, and...brutally honest about himself. He admits that he's a coward, that he's not cut out to be a hero like Link is. A stark difference, but one we most often attribute to Lorule's sorry state rather than to a fault of Ravio's. After all, we've seen Thieves' Town; we know how bad the world he lives in can change a person.
But why is this important for dear Kafei?
Because Kafei mirrors the opposite part of Link. He has a different origin, but the same personality and knack for dungeons.
Allow me to explain.
When we first meet Kafei, he's—according to Anju—been missing for a month, Skull Kid having cursed him to revert back to when he was younger (Terminian time exists somewhat outside of Hyrulean; we've got enough headaches with the extended timeline as it is without adding to the mix).
Already, we see an eerie parallel to Ocarina of Time. A force of good sealed Link away for seven years, while a force of evil clocked back Kafei for his own seven.
On top of that, Kafei here wears the Keaton mask, which we later receive from the guy he's been boarding with. The Keaton mask is the very first mask you get in Ocarina of Time, from the Happy Mask Salesman’s doppelganger.
Our next hint at their connection comes from their faces. Kafei's face, when revealed, looks strikingly like Link's adult face.
The biggest differences, apart from color palette, are that Kafei's hair is wilder and his eyebrow shape is inverted from Link's. But even if we consider the colors...we get some interesting results.
It's impossible to get real gold with the weird highlights Kafei's hair has, but if we focus on the darker parts, changing them to gold turns Link's hair bluish purple, while nearly perfectly inverting the two's eye colors and tunics. They have a tweaked palette inversion, with the exception of their skin tone.
And then we have the true show of Kafei's claim to heroism in his quest.
We chase Kafei into Satou's hideout, where the Sun Mask he wants to exchange with Anju lies.
He steps on a pressure plate as he tries to get it back, and the security measures Satou left behind take effect. But Kafei doesn't panic—he starts ordering Link around.
He knows puzzles. He knows exactly how these work, despite their being a product of Majora's influence.
Not only that, but we get to control him. For a brief moment in the game, he is the hero, with the same movements and techniques that Link has.
He even does the same victory pose when achieving his goal.
But the final thing, the one that sealed his role in for me, was his reaction to the end of the world.
The moon is falling.
Clock Town is crumbling around them.
And yet Kafei runs home to Anju, despite his curse, despite the fear everyone else has.
He says his wedding vows, which, to his knowledge, will be his last act living, wanting to spend his final moments with the woman he loves.
He invites Link, who is surely doomed too, to seek refuge in the comfort of his and Anju’s home. A small thank you for fulfilling his last wishes.
And he faces certain death bravely.
Because the people he cares about
Are worth more to him
Than securing his own safety alone.
Kafei shows courage when it comes to looking after those he loves.
It’s no wonder Majora wanted to get him out of the way quickly.
My comic I did for a zine a while back.

right so turns out my eyes aren’t even fucking hazel but actually just blue/green (I can't tell which) with brown central heterochromia. so apparently I've just spent my entire life going about not even knowing what colour my eyes are.
I just remembered this one time then I was in like primary 3 (so like around 7) and we were doing surveys or something like that. so our teacher took us to the cloak room and gathered us all in the centre and then would pick like a feature or something, like hair or eye colour, that we would group ourselves under. So he assigned eye colour to three corners and basically said go to the corresponding eye colour for you and I just sat down cause he had only said brown, green or blue eyes and seven year old me is like nah bicth I know what colour my eyes are and they aint that so I just continued to sit there even as my teacher is looking at me like what is this stubborn child doing. but he asked me to go to a corner and I said that no my eyes are hazel and you didn’t say hazel so I didn’t know where to go. and the poor teacher is obviously kinda annoyed at this point but he repeated himself (because I asked earlier about hazel) that no hazel eyes aren’t a thing and im still sitting there being stubborn. So he sighs and asks me to stand up and look at him so he could check and so I did. Annnnywaaay I got to stand in a corner by my self as he counted how many people were in each corner because my eyes are literally like half brown, half green.
ok but if bruce wayne somehow came upon zuko fresh out of banishment he would lose his mind.
black hair? check. bad parent(s)? check. trauma? double check.
bruce: how’d you get your scar?
zuko: my dad got mad at me for saying that killing people is wrong so he lit my face on fire and banished me.
bruce, vibrating with excitement, already pulling adoption papers from his utilility: that’s terrible. how do you feel about capes.

wayne Family making me want to draw stupid things
I just spent like two hours explaining adhd with my brother to my grandparents (on to side of my family that doesn’t have it everywhere) and holy shitttt am I exhausted. Like I have adhd, both my brothers have adhd and so do a few of my cousins some aunts and uncles probably my gramma and maybe as well my great uncle and probably more as that is all on only one side of my family where it’s just highly concentrated at this point. But anyways that is not the point, the point is that trying to have a conversation with two neurotypicals as two neurodivergents about adhd is so fricking frustrating. So like at times my nana would interrupt my brother or get off topic about something and my brother and I would just look at each other like ‘seriously SERIOUSLY!?!???’ because we can’t just go back to the original conversation after getting side tracked that is literally not possible for us. Or at times she would get really focus on interest and being motivated by that and we were struggling to explain how interest is a factor but now I huge part in like studying for exams for example. (please note my mum, who is the not adhd sibling of her generation, is also trying to help explain this) Or also she, still my nana, got really caught up on how it must be that we can't focus because we can't see how it will immediately affect our futures when studying, which noooo we can see we just can't do anything to make ourselves study or be interested. and my grandpa was better about not interupting he did get kinda confused about if my brother (who doesn’t have an official diagnosis, the other brother and I do) was self diagnosing and how can we be sure if he does have adhd. And at this point when both of his sibling do, at least one cousin, two aunts and uncles and probably more family has it and adhd being known to be hereditary, you kinda get to know the symptoms well and can look at someone and go ‘oh yeah you’ve got this and this and this and oh that too and this over here and oh yeah your life had kinda fallen apart a bit after high school yeah maybe you do have adhd’ so nope we maybe be ‘self diagnosing’ but when we’re also working for a diagnosis and know it that well its really not in the same category.
(and yes I know that they don’t know about this and are just trying to understand and look out for us but despite having grace to them in conversation that doesn’t make it any less frustrating. and im also only mentioning the more annoying/frustrating things here)
Anger management au but Danny hates Jason on sight. Not because he's undead or liminal or any of that. But because he's dating his sister and he doesn't approve.
Jason is both impressed and amused that this teenage twink keeps threatening him up to the point Jason asks, "Oh? What are you going to do?"
And suddenly Jason is in a wall. Not knocked through it, no. But in the wall. As in hes been densist shifted into it. Jason isn't even sure how he's alive all things considered and Danny is refusing to let him out.
It isn't until Jazz gets home and asks, "Uh, why is my boyfriend in the wall?" That Danny, with much reluctance, let's her boyfriend go
Jason likes this kid. He's not letting Bruce anywhere near him.
