MEMEIN' IT UP

It's been a little while, so it's time for the...

TL;CR MEME!!




STEP ONE: Post with your character!
STEP TWO: Respond to other people's characters with your characters. They will then tell you, in detail, what their character thinks of yours -- and as per the meme's title, tl;dr is encouraged.
STEP THREE: Write out tl;dr for whoever comments to you in return.
STEP FOUR: Chat with each other in mutual joy/horror/disgust/delight/confusion at where your CR has gone!
BONUS: Use this for writing up CR charts, or if you already have them written, link to them!

first of all let me just say that i love the unspoken assumption that all rogues know each other even if they've never interacted on panel, because they're a sociable bunch and harassing flashes was a pastime to bond over

insert handwaved backstory here

THE POINT IS they get along surprisingly well considering both of their personalities. you'd think they'd clash more. but no. shade always comes off as like, politely yet distantly amused by whatever stupid thing trickster is doing, and really that's all he asks for. lots and lots of attention and for someone to think he's kind of funny. shade are you watching hey shade i'm gonna do a cannonball into this jello pool are you waaaaatchiiiing

which is probably why despite being a Proper Refined Victorian Gentleman, shade doesn't really ping his "must annoy the hell out of this person" senses. negative attention only makes him more obnoxious. shade is getting trickster's Very Best Behavior, somehow. is he being the weird vaguely paternal figure james never had? i don't know! don't think too hard about it!

so hey congrats on your reform, let's talk shop, please give him a pep talk because he doesn't want to backslide but sometimes a guy just really wants to rob a bank, you feel me

i want them to do more totally-not-supervillain things
