beforeyoucanblink | Ten Facts Meme! (or, guess what I brought back from vacation!) + shameless begging

1. When Bart was six, he got in epic trouble with his parents for stuffing turnips into his pockets to get out of eating them. To this day, he’ll eat pretty much anything you put in front of him, and then some but not turnips.

2. Despite his parents’ rocky relationship with his paternal grandparents, there were a few attempts to mend broken bridges when he was seven. Mostly what he remembers from this time is uncomfortable chatter and being forced to wear a tie.

3. After that period, he was sent to his grandparents’ for a dinner at least once a year. Just him, not his parents. He’s still not sure why.

4. Bart didn’t develop an interest in drawing until after the accident and subsequent move. It began with doodles and cartoons in his schoolbooks instead of notes and moved on from there.

5. Despite this, he still aced every test. ...Because he cheated. His teachers thought there was a draft in the room.

6. Only one of his teachers ever caught on that something was up. Instead of lecturing him like he expected, she just talked to him about his home life and recommended art classes. He found out later that she had paid a visit to his parents to talk about his problems at school; that chat catalyzed the fight that led to him being kicked out.

7. There’s a small nick in his skin up by his throat from sometime during his first six months on the street. He refuses to acknowledge its existence.

8. When Bart started high school again, official Justice League channels tended to be mysteriously used for homework help. As long as it didn’t put anyone in danger, Ollie officially didn’t know anything about it.

9. He’s not stupid. Even with hero work, he blew through those last years of high school fast.

10. He’s very seriously considering a civilian career as a cartoonist/illustrator. It’ll be awesome.

...Also, Bart's userpic extension went away while I was gone.

SAY HI TO THE HOT LEATHER-CLAD BLONDE FOR HIM, CLARK.

YAY.

You're lucky I'm not in this game to smack you around myself.

HEY THIS IS META. No fair. I totally respect you, but it isn't my fault that you're hot, and you wear leather.

And I have a girlfriend in this game.

And this would make a difference to me in any way because...?

Because I'm sorry to say you don't have a chance with me there.

What, as someone I'd need to babysit? Something tells me you'll always need that.

Hey. Uncool.

Does it help that Vic is about the only one of you I don't think that about?

Not really.

Oh, come on. It's what I'm here for. Keep you boys on your toes.

My toes are fine.

A change can be arranged.

What is this, Grand Central Station?

More like Bored Mun Syndrome.

Whatever, dude. You ever considered taking up a sport?

Isn't annoying you one?

:OOO

Look at you, getting in touch with your bad side!

The meta, it does wonders.

Totally.

I think you should take up another one, though. We can call it annoying Ollie.

We call that canon, actually.

Awesome.

Also, cause I'm lazy about signing in to my own account (and because Joann's opinion might help):

Do ya'll know anyone who'd be interested in taking up Chloe in Mways? I'm still on the edge here and just do not know what to do.

I don't, no. I'm sure I could find someone if it were absolutely necessary, but I don't think it would be if you decide to let her go and I'd rather if someone else decided to play her because they want to, not because it fills a gap or something.

Nah. It's more of a situation in which if I do let her go, I'd love to have someone wanting to play her. Because then I'd get to interact with her (y'know, with Jenny and all) and stuff.

And I wouldn't want to leave ya'll hanging with no Chloe in the game. Even if I don't play her much.
