just something terrible about the fact that there really aren’t kids websites anymore and now there aren’t adult websites either. kids don’t have neopets or club penguin or anything else like that to go on now where there could be appropriate moderation for their age, and so now you have 9 year olds on tik tok and instagram seeing content that’s not appropriate for them, and the adults on these platforms get censored to death because “think of the children” that shouldn’t even be there in the first place. kids would not give a shit about these things if they had their own spaces to go.
So after I watched the cartoon network Teen Titans again there's something I've realized.
Too many people talk about how angry and "goth" Raven is but not enough people talk about how much she cares about her friends and other people.
She's known from the day she was born what she was destined to become — "the end of all things mortal." She's known her destiny and fought HARD to protect her friends, from everything evil including herself.
She's extremely intelligent and powerful, but she's never unkind or uncaring. In the episode Nevermore when her control slips a bit and she goes way too hard on Dr. Light, she's afraid of herself. She feels remorse for what she did, *for a villain*.
She may not be as outwardly bubbly and expressive as her friends, but that's because of what her powers do. The fact that when her friends were hurt she unleashed her most powerful form because she's angry and afraid. She's afraid of losing everything she's worked so hard to cultivate and keep, she knows what she's capable of but REFUSES to do so, she turns her dark powers into overwhelming light.
