So, it's your birthday.

You're old. Get the fuck over it. I'll be over here, not existing anymore.

You said a bad word!

[theotherspeedy]

I did. Sorry.

...Don't tell your dad you heard it?

[voted_dead]

Trust me, you don't want to exist in this new shitfest of a canon.

I apparently started a team of psycho gingers. Like people needed more reason to hate me.

[theotherspeedy]

And neither of us gets to be in the cartoons. On the upside, since we're enitrely fictional, we'll be young and hot forever.

Or I will, anyway.

[mrbigshotarrow]

So, do we get to break into song, now?

[theotherspeedy]

Oh, please do. She hates her birthday and I can't stand her moping about it.

Wait, you're the you I'm used to, right? Not the you that wants to throttle me, or the one Eiffel Towering Starfire with Jaybird, right?

[middle_amazon]

The voice is deadpan with a side of disgust. "Join the club. I'm baking a cake."

[theotherspeedy]

Dude, after what they did to your family, do you really wanna exist in that world?

I won't turn down cake, though.

[ditchedtheherogame]

Isn't "not existing" what all the cool kids are doing these days?

[theotherspeedy]

We're probably better off.

Still jealous you got to be in the cartoon and I didn't though. But then, I don't exactly have a Saturday Morning-friendly backstory.

[leftthenest]

The reboot was pretty rough on a lot of people. Hey, maybe they'll change their minds and bring you back.

[theotherspeedy]

The most I'm hoping for is showing up in that new TV show with the young, hot Ollie.

Oh god that feels weird and wrong to say.

[demigoddess]

What makes you so sure you won't exist? Not that there's a lot to be said about the reboot so far...

[theotherspeedy]

Maybe. Nocenti's a cool chick, apparently she tackled a lot of social issues in Daredevil. Maybe I'll get re-intro'd by her. And be less of a soapbox than I was for Winnick. That'd be cool.

But man. That Ollie... it's sad. He's... not my Ollie, the loudmothed, Liberal blowhard who'd put an arrow through anyone who messed with his family.

[robinspoiling]

Want a drink?

I stole it from Batman. Mr. "Look At Me Ma I Have Three Books" really doesn't need it.

[theotherspeedy]

God, yes.


I bet it's good stuff, too. Bring it here.

[wholenewstory]

You exist.

For them.

[theotherspeedy]

...that...

that's really true. You always manage to say more than I could, with just a few words. Always admired that about you.

[master_of_the_game]

Old? Are you kidding me? I'm 60 in my current timeline. THAT'S old.

[theotherspeedy]

And you're a grandpa, at that.

[an_abomination]

You might still show up at some point.

[theotherspeedy]

I'm not really sure I want to at this point.

I don't wanna look like a 90s reject.

[pretty_bird]

Easy on the old thing, my mun and I are both a little sensitive. Thank God Ollie will always be older.

Ok, real point here kiddo. I don't give a rats ass what some suit in an office thinks, you are real, and vibrant and a live and one of the best damn people I know. So if they can't see that, then to hell with them!

[theotherspeedy]

[So much hugging, Dinah. So much hugging.]

[longbowhunter]

You should have a little sensitivity for your elders, kiddo.

[theotherspeedy]

I miss you not being young and hot. So weird. No facial hair either. Even weirder.

[kneecaptain]

Wow.

They really do hate you.

[theotherspeedy]

Oddly enough, prettymuch everyone she plays anywhere from my world has been rebooted out of existence, replaced or changed into something entirely different.

Not really sure if it's sad, funny, or both.
