Bio

Very well, where do I begin?

My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet.

My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament.

My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds - pretty standard, really. At the age of twelve, I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles.

There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum... it's breathtaking. I highly suggest you try it.

All this time we thought Joker was a murderous psychopath, but really he just needed cash for plastic surgery to fix his fucked up face. Batman is the real villain here.


Screw the clown. Man's gotta be able to afford a lifetime of nachos.



Nobody told him about make-up remover?


I think it's an economical issue. Do you know how much makeup remover you need to reverse permanent and bizarrely specific chemical bleaching?
Batman glider-capes away to fight his Scott Snyder-version Joker with his face carved off...


Hey, hold on now. Snyder took it a step further and had Joker re-attach the face after Tony Daniel randomly had the de-facing happen at the end of his debut issue of Detective Comics and then never followed up on that because his run was nonsensical edgelord garbage.

So, you know. There. An entirely different Batman writer ripped Bushman off.

(Still haunted by the question of 'Why did the fuck Joker want his face cut off?' seven years later)
(Pay no attention to the amalgamatiom of The Shadow, Sherlock Holmes, Zorro, and countless other sources that Kane and Finger blatantly stole from...)
I've clipped in MB's quote because in some ways his schizophrenic Batman has made me up the stakes on where and what Moon Knight is in this world.

I feel alright about the character progression so far... but that's mainly because I've written a bit ahead of what I have actually posted. I've also got a clearer idea in mind for who and what he is now than the broadstrokes of earlier posts which had basically a few outlines on what I originally wanted. With the existence of schizophrenic Batman I'm moving a bit deeper into Egyptian mythology and we may see some established characters spin out in nslightly different (but still workable ways).


Yeah, well... that's what your guy gets for taking some of my guy's shit in the first place. Two can play at the sampling game, you moon-a-rang wielding, cape wearing, nocturnal billionaire vigilante motherfucker...
Breathe.


Braeteh. Barethe. Brethe.

Triggered yet?

I feel without me, this RP would be memeingless.


You have basically existed as the running joke of the game just by merely existing. Now go write another sex scene, damn you. The public wants what it wants. Dance, monkey!
I sometimes think you breath in paragraphs.


I'm very reserved and quiet in real life. I think that's why I won't shut the fuck up online - I hold entirely too much in.

But, yeah. I know.
With a little over a month to go to the end of Season 1, how do you all feel about your Character's development and progress at this point? Are you accomplishing the story you've wanted to tell? Did you hope to be further along? What are some of the things you're looking forward to for next season that you didn't get to accomplish this season?


I'm more than a little mixed on how and where I've taken Bruce for the season, if I'm to be honest. For one thing, I do take pride in the fact that unlike many, many, way too many attempts in the past, I've yet to stop or really bail out on this version of Batman for whatever reason. The sheer fact that I've pushed ahead and told myself to just keep writing no matter what is a pretty shocking thing, if you know my track record for burning out fairly quickly. That tells me that I'm in it for the long-haul, and leaves me excited to explore future seasons.

However. Because I chose to go a more aimless, introductory route with my initial arc, and because that took up most of the season to complete (I didn't even plan to feature Deadshot, Ivy, or Jessica Jones), not only did I not get to a majority of what I had wanted to introduce, I also really haven't even scratched the surface of Bruce's fractured psychology. For whatever reason, the way I wrote Batman in UOU went from being a very bare-bones origin phase of the character to just being rather comfortably the character itself with sprinkles of the problems I wanted him to have. And the overall state of Gotham was meant to shift and change alot more, with the mob being phased out for the supervillains, but that's obviously not the case. Nashton was actually supposed to be the lynchpin of that and be the villain of this season, but so far he's been a background player. There was also alot more meant to be done with Selina Kyle and Barbara Gordon, who'd respectively be closer to becoming Catwoman and a legitimate ally of Batman's, but there just wasn't time. And perhaps most ambitiously, I actually wanted to do a whole origin story arc that showed Bruce going from ski-mask vigilante mode to donning the cape proper, since that's a story I've been dying to tell.

So I'm in a bit of an odd place where if I could do it all again, I'd make some serious changes. But I'm also not entirely regretful. I've had fun, and when it comes down to it, I don't think I nessescarily did a bad job at improvising an entire story. It certainly sets up interesting possibilities for Season Two. But there are many, many things that had to be moved to either a future season or scrapped entirely because of how the story panned out, and that does leave me feeling as though I didn't accomplish what I wanted to. So, eh. I'm very torn.

Though, I've got a big post coming up that'll be the first part of what sets the stage for Season Two - not to mention a crossover that I'm very excited for. And if I can throw Batman into the mix of the MME, that'll be the icing on the cake. So I'm still excited to move forward and tell these stories, they're just happening in a way and at a pace that I wish I had taken more control over.
I just realized @Morden Man got post #300.

Damnit!


Oh, shit, I could've been a dick and stole that one too?

Nuts. :(
