aww yeah it's question meme time
Time to bring back one of my old faves...

Simple and easy! Here's how it goes:
1. POST a top-level with your character name
2. REPLY to other people's top-level with a question for that character
3. ANSWER the question you were asked
4. ASK a question of that person's characters in return!
We go back and forth like this asking questions in a thread until one or both of us runs out of questions!
QUESTIONS CAN BE ANYTHING. Serious or silly as you want! What does Jane think of (x)? What does Sarah have for breakfast? How many times a day does Alex masturbate? What's Tom's dream job? The only limit for questions is your imagination.
Replies can be as monosyllabic or as tl;dr are you want; it's up to you. Go wild kids!

Bart Allen
Re: Bart Allen
Why is he so adorable and what's his world like?
no subject
OH MY GOD I WILL TOUCH ON HIS WORLD IN A SECOND but he is adorable because he needs to be adorable. Because he needs people to like him and he needs to be able to slip under people's radar and not send up red lights and being an adorable, innocent, slightly dumb and irresponsible thirteen-year-old is the best way to do that B|b
His world is. Uh. Well. He's kind of not from a good world. He's basically one of the most tragic sad teens of the series in that he... grew up in a post-apocalyptic future. Where heroes are all dead or captured and in stasis, the sky is just clouds dropping a constant rain of ash, and everything is dark and gloomy and grey and broken. Buildings don't stand anymore, people live in ripped clothes and inhibitor collars in tents and work as slaves. \8D/ and he, a thirteen-year-old kid, teamed up with the guy who was sorta mind controlled into killing his grandfather, the Flash, in order to break out of his collar and build a time machine from scraps of salvaged tech to make a one-way trip to the past in an attempt to completely rewrite the horribleness of 2056.
So yeah, 90% of his current personality started out as an act and a need to be accepted as a perky time traveler accidentally stuck in the past and then he just. Sort of fell for his own act and became as happy and hyper as he initially pretended to be. But a lot of it is still an act. And. Yes.
These are probably more words than you were expecting OOPS.
no subject
and oh time travel. When will you ever not have consequences. Did it work?
no subject
the only time we ever see anything reversing is in the clip i linked up there. part of what happened in 2056 was changed but the general reach ruined future was still there
they never actually show us if it worked or not, and no one will ever know what was planned for the never-to-be third season
ah the joy of cancelled dc cartoons
RIGHT RETURN QUESTION: ward. ward. why do you hate these adorable little robo-vacuums so much? BART DOESN'T UNDERSTAND HOW YOU COULD HATE THEM
no subject
But really he's about to get a government job so everything will be awesome for him. : D
Re: Bart Allen

because if he went back and failed his mission, his grandfather's death would have been on his hands. because if he went back and failed the entire world's destruction and every single thing the reach would do to e v e r y o n e would be on his hands. and he'd rather that kind of target and guilt just be on him and not- well. not a flash. he doesn't want that risk to tarnish anyone other than himself.
but now he's... actually a little wary of it. because people don't really seem to trust him all that much :C he's always getting lectured and hounded for information and people get frustrated with him and it basically all boils down to some weak little feeling of "i'm not good enough yet"
because wally just telling him that duh he's family he should wear the symbol isn't the same as wally telling him he wants him to wear it because he's actually done a good job.
no subject
use ur words
tell him this
no subject
ALSO HEY RETURN QUESTION because i always forget those first comment s-sob
What would Wally do if Bart told him he and Artemis dated for five years BEFORE SHE "DIED"?
no subject
CHOKE ON WHATEVER HE IS EATING AND THEN PROFUSELY DENY EVEN BEING INTERESTED IN HER and then think about it for days and days on end and look at her a little differently and be about 756273872958234 times more determined to find a way to remember this place/make sure she doesn't "die" back home
if wally found some old guy (*cough*KOTETSU*cough*) and got him to dress up like santa for christmas to put presents in bart's house how stoked would he be
no subject
oh man OH MAN OOOOHHHH MAAAAAAAN okay but have you seen bart's thread with robin about santa because its kind of amazing
HE WOULD BE THE MOST STOKED. like he would be the most excited person in the world because this marks the second time ever in his life that someone's given him a gift and it's the guy who gives gifts to people who do good things and that's just- its awesome and amazing and he'd probably text wally immediately and let him know that santa exists in this universe too how crash if that????
and if he caught
kotetsusaid old guy in the act he'd probably just hug him and tell him really fast that he's really glad he's doing this and giving people things and he thinks its really neat and thank you if you ever need help delivering things he can totally do that even if it means sprinting around the world all night and he's sorry, he knows he's supposed to be in bed BUT HE JUST HAD TO SAY THANK YOU BECAUSE ITS REALLY AN AMAZING THING AND HE WISHES PEOPLE HAD THAT IN 2056 HE JUST WISHES THAT PEOPLE HAD GOTTEN GIFTS AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR IT WOULD HAVE MADE SO MUCH OF A DIFFERENCE AND AND ANDalso okay on that note i know we're psl-ing it out BUT B U T if wally in game got to see what m'gann saw re: bart's past what would he think?
no subject
If he SAW it? Like, saw it as in experienced the memories instead of just knew it intellectually? He'd probably both leave Bart alone more often and also hover over him like WHAT. He'd dote on him and let him take his food without complaining and try to give him anything he wanted. Honestly he would just pity Bart. He would really, seriously hardcore pity the kid and be absolutely insufferable and probably annoy Bart until Bart blew up at him and punched him into a ditch or something, because Wally has friends with hard pasts but not like that. And Wally might know his friends' hard pasts intellectually, but he's never experienced them. He might've had a few sad things happen in his life, but Wally wouldn't know a difficult childhood if it bit him on the ass. And Bart's "difficult childhood" is like
person-breaking
yeah
So Wally would probably be at a loss as to how he should react and would probably smother Bart as a result IT WOULD BE INSUFFERABLE, PRAY WALLY NEVER SEES IT
no subject
DOES BART NEED TO EAT AS MUCH AS WALLY??
no subject
BUT I say no to the needing to eat AS much. Like I piggy back off of needing to eat a lot but be it because bart was born with powers or because his powers like. Redeveloped due to how he grew up he can also NOT eat as much and be mostly fine. Just you know. Pigging out gives him a lot more energy to burn instead of exhausting himself by running on empty.
Oh okay so HOW HAPPY WOULD WALLY BE IF BARRY SHOWED UP?
no subject
no but i agree they've been getting along too well, they need a fight
a big fight
UM WALLY WOULD BE FUCKING OVERJOYED BUT WOULD ALSO SIDE-EYE BART REALLY HARD B/C LIKE THAT'S HIS UNCLE AND MENTOR???? AND YOU ARE WELCOME TO BE FAMILY BUT IF BARRY DECIDES TO SPEND MORE TIME WITH U B/C UR BETTER THAN ME THEN IM PROBABLY GONNA FIGHT U FOR HIS HAND IN MENTORSHIP OR SOMETHING
no subject
no subject
AND UH. UHHHHH oh man bart would be the most excited person to ever excite. like he'd just run in circles around barry and want to know everything about him and would be a little too eager to help him out but also just run the opposite direction as fast as he could any time training came up uggghhhh but. yeah.
sorry wally the battle for barry's attention would be real and intense. strategy would be employed. puppy dog eyes pulled out in full effect. the disappointed sad kid frown and "ur dead where i come from" kept as secret weapons in dire situations
oh yeah what would wally's thoughts be on bart being smart enough to build a time machine? SINCE YOU KNOW HE'S NOT ONLY FASTER THAN HIM AT THIRTEEN AND ON A MISSION TO SAVE THE WHOLE DAMN WORLD BUT HE'S ALSO SOLVED THE MYSTERY OF TIME TRAVEL?
no subject
yeah basically bart is what wally wish he'd turned himself into. brilliant and powerful. and he doesn't want to hate the kid over it, but sometimes if he thinks about it too long he really, really resents bart and sorta hates him a little. and then he remembers that bart's life was literally hell before and he feels lower than dirt for hating someone like that and IT'S NOT PLEASANT SO HE JUST AVOIDS THINKING ABOUT IT and talks down to bart sometimes to feel superior. SORRY KIDDO
question hmmmm question
okay; what would bart do if his inhibitor collar tech got abused? say if someone grabbed a bunch of them and started collaring innocent imports. let's say the MILITARY does it. how would he react?
