I love that nobody has any argument with this. It's basically a fact.

Batman doesn't fuck

[(Anonymous)]

Almost? Who are the Batmans that you do not see bottoming?

[feotakahari]

This reminds me of Frank Miller saying that Batman would be a lot more psychologically healthy if he had sex with men instead of beating men up.

I both see this and also see Joker as the subbiest sub who's ever subbed. And, well, I do love my destructive trash ship and all its complications…

Have you ever found a fando. that was good, consistently and at a broad scale, at dealing with complex character analysis and political and historical issues?

[(Anonymous)]

Yeaah. That's the image I'm starting to get of the fandom too. At least, the online fanworks producing movie oriented part. Notice which characters the fics are overwhelmingly about (if you knew nothing about the source material, whether novel, play or movie, and you went soley by A03 you'd think Enjolras was the main character) and how they're not too interested in other similar themed fandoms unless there's Broadway style music involved.

And faux performative wokeness can lead this subset of fans to forget the message of mercy and forgiveness towrads those who don't deserve it, which is also found in the story alongside the social justice stuff.

I just want to say... that I love Les Mis. Haven't interacted with it outside of reading the novel, but looking forward to seeing some of the adaptations at some point.

OP have you looked into what academic writing is out there about the book? Maybe that would scratch your itch for serious analysis, IDK. There's got to be something interesting out there!

I left the fandom a while ago but that sounds like it's changed a lot since I was back in it around the 2009-2014 era? I mean given I was really in it for E/R so tar and feather me for that (lol), but this sounds sadly like a lot of fandoms these days, not just Les Mis.

I'm loving all these 'looking back on kids books' secrets because it's neat to see what other people grew up reading. That said, at first I thought this was Through Violet Eyes which IIRC was about a psychic or something and definitely not the same book as this so I was very confused.

Also, so far I have not heard of a single book listed in any of these secrets.

This is only half-related to your secret, but I wanted to ship Gene and Finny so bad when I had to read A Separate Peace. The book's just too depressing to really think about shipping though.

...I mean it's not a stretch for modern day, or is it that everyone is portrayed that way?
