Todd Rice - Tumblr Posts
Hmm Todd would atleast acknowledge it bc he would see Alan’s issue with Hank partially as an extension of Alan’s “issue” with his sexuality (assuming this is pre- coming out). Ironically this might accelerate the Alan-Todd off-screen reconciliation by forcing the issue sooner…
Okay so if we've established that Alan would respond badly, do we think that Todd would actually be better at dealing with it than Jen, who basically just kept being like 'I can't believe Hank thinks dad hates him!!!'?
I do think it’s funny that Alan managed to aggravate BOTH of their daddy issues in this scenario. All three of them having a mental breakdown for three very separate reasons and Jen just slowly backs away

Why does this have me drowning in crack fic brainworms. The DC equivalent of the royal wedding but it’s between two deranged old men in capes. Stepdad Red Lantern. Vladimir Sokov changing diapers if/when any of the kids are babies? Why am I imagining Todd calling his stepfather Dad but calling his actual father Alan??

@garrus’s (very correct) tags:
#remember when he held an airport hostage #todd rice #alan scott #but that last line is so funny bc this is the same peepaw lantern #who told his upset daughter who was (correctly) worried about her boyfriend "no one's dead kiddo ur fine" #like yeah he'll beat people up for them he doesn't need much motivation punching people is his favorite hobby #but he'll be telling todd to man up while he does it
Enough with all the dramatics like “ooh~ Todd is out of control again… much angst… what will ALAN and poor JENNY do NOW??! Shadow powers and mental illness!!!” Like bruh Alan’s the one who slept with their mom, he’s gone insane/committed horrible crimes multiple times (institutionalizing his former teammate’s nephew for sleeping with his daughter more or less???). The man Is Not Sane either.
Next time comics have Todd ~struggling with his demons~ I want ppl to be all like ‘Yeah he gets this from Alan. Young man take this edible and go chill in a corner like your daddy did back then.’ And then the other half of the room hyperventilating because they made Todd cry and are genuinely terrified about what peepaw Green Lantern might do if he finds out.
Broke: Jay dislikes Todd because he’s ableist (wack)
Woke: Jay dislikes Todd because he’s a Hank Stan (valid)
Bespoke: Jay leans into the assumption that he doesn’t like the twins, Todd especially, because Alan (his bff with benefits) and Rose (his ex villain with benefits) having kids together makes him feel some sort of Way (canon can choke)
obsidian and shade really should have faced off more
See at least with Grayson you have no choice but to call him Penis conversationally. Mr FastDick makes you THINK
discussing richard swift’s name and infinite frontier
jade and obsidian are so funny. absolutely iconic

Dress Al as a Christmas tree!
I know it's a little late,I was going to paint it in 2022's Xmas but I've been so busy at work recently...SO...it goes!
I had chosen Customs I likes.I know they aren't in the same period,but it's cute!!!
I chose the Costume of Atom smasherjust because Nuklon is hard to draw and make Al look very cute.<3
Well, Rose/Thorn had both enhanced speed (albeit not speedster level) and chlorokinesis…kinda laughing at the idea of everyone assuming Todd is either Jay’s kid (or the Shade’s) instead of Alan for a bit, so my vote is for that option
Fr though, this always bugged me- especially since Jen hardly even gets to USE her plant powers
Unpopular JSA fandom opinion: If Jen got plant powers because of their mom Todd should also get something powers because of their mom. Jen is always the universe's favorite and it is a bit unfair...
Thinking about how Harlequin’s Son / Michael Mayne was conceived of as having been an Obsidian rogue at some point or another- queer themes and family ties aside, I think it would be really funny if DC used this to canonize humor as Obsidian’s primary weakness.
No, I’m not joking.
His powers are deeply tied to his emotions, and his ability to torment people with their own soul/sins/fears/traumas is one of the most terrifying in the DC universe. How hilarious would it be if the best way to keep him from doing so…was to make him laugh?
(As I’m sure the Harlequin’s Son would attest, easier said than done)
Michael I know your villain arc was a phase caused by idiot homophobes accidentally shooting each other. I realize you might have some feelings regarding the fact that your mother left you to be raised by your unnamed grandmother to play lavender footsie with the GL, only to later take a motherly role to his long- lost adult children.
Why are you shooting your (ex?) stepbrother with a psychic attack ukulele??

Given that DC will likely never give us an on- panel ToddDamon wedding, I have decided to indulge the brainworms. My semi- incoherent vision:
Church wedding at Todd’s insistence! Running gag that Alan keeps trying to throw money at them- including an ongoing insistence that he can and should be allowed to rent St. Peter’s Cathedral for the event
Todd very much takes Damon’s name
Damon’s Best Woman- Kate Spencer
Ring bearer- Ramses (takes place when he’s still a kid)
Flower girl- Julie Sawyer
Todd’s Best Woman- Jennie
Todd’s groomsman- Al
The wedding would be largely a fluff piece, but also a vehicle for a variety of subplots- a lot of past storylines could be revisited via stories (I.e., guests reminiscing about past adventures and shenanigans)- ranging wildly in tone
There would also be subplots in real-time:
Several members of Todd and Damon’s caped friends and family (led by Manhunter, Jade, and AtomSmasher AKA the adult wedding party), determined not to let the typical disasters ruin their wedding, run themselves ragged running interference. All said, the trio and associates end up diverting no less than 3 attempts at sabotage or super-villainy.
In turn, this contains a separate subplot of Kate and Ramses butting heads over his burgeoning instance in striking out in his own superhero career before he’s ready, attempting to “prove himself” to his “overprotective” mother
Over the course of the month leading up to the event- bachelor party, suit fitting- Jennie notices an unknown figure continue to pop up, seemingly watching her brother. After cornering this man, he reveals himself to be Jeremy Rice, trying to work up the courage to approach his estranged adoptive brother. This revelation- and the prospect of Jeremy returning to her twin’s life- triggers a mix of emotions in the Best Woman, even as she tries to push past it and facilitate the “surprise wedding gift” reunion
Along with the above shenanigans, Michael Mayne and Ruby Sokov crash Todd’s bachelor party- in tandem, Molly Mayne and Vladimir Sokov find they’ve coincidentally both had the idea to crash Damon’s- the former for a drunken shovel talk, the latter for reasons he refuses to confirm beyond “needing to talk to Alan”.
