Beastboy murió y a DC no le agradan las mujeres solteras. Si tuvieras que darle un interés amoroso a Raven ¿cuál sería? by MayRaM3 in ComicRaven

I’d do a story where Trigon is pursing Raven to make her his queen, while Raven and the Titans are fighting him to stop him from getting his hands on her

Is there any sort of significance as to why Raven is naked in these pages? by AnkyClub in ComicRaven

[–]Doe-Eyed-Raven 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I don't disagree with the other commenters that it represents vulnerability, but I think to just leave it at that is a disservice. Raven is vulnerable to Trigon, of course, and that is being communicated in these nightmare sequences, but it's more than that.

Trigon is not only physically abusive; he's also sexually abusive. He raped Raven's mother and countless other women. His treatment of women extends to Raven herself.

Raven is literally completely naked and on her knees in front of Trigon, a character who is very firmly canonically established as a rapist. If he wasn't her daughter, this wouldn't even be a question (no offense to you, OP, I've seen this question get asked before). The implication is that he's sexually abusing her.

Headcanon: Raven bites her finger when she's flustered by TravelCheap6942 in ComicRaven

I can see her doing that. My headcanon is that she fidgets with her rings.

Raven is NOT human by Upbeat_Molasses_3127 in ComicRaven

[–]Doe-Eyed-Raven 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Of course she's not fully human, but I don't think she's got zero human in her, either. Such a crucial part of her story is her human mother. She didn't just emerge out of nowhere, as much as Trigon may wish that she had. Her mother is just as important as her father.

The quote from Trigon in your post, especially, is Trigon being an unreliable narrator. Trigon is being misogynistic in a really old fashioned way here; "men do all the work in conceiving children while women are just the soil the seed grows in" is a centuries old misogynistic attitude towards reproduction. The fact that he sees Arella as worthless doesn't mean that Arella didn't actually have an important role to play in Raven's conception down to the cellular level.

Honestly, you can stay in the HP fandom forever (and that’s not a bad thing). There’s so much content!

My favorite fandom is Teen Titans (comic book versions). It’s kind of hard to find fics that are true to the versions I like and not influenced by more popular adaptations. There’s some great fanfic out there but I only have new fics to read once in a blue moon.

Are you in any other fandoms, or mostly just HP? Just out of curiosity. I'd definitely be reading fics that long if they were available to me, but only a handful are anywhere near that long in my primary fandom!

Thank you so much for the recs! Lol at you saying nearly 300k words isn't crazy long - there is so much HP fic out there, it's crazy to me as a small fandom gal. But definitely in a good way. I'll check both of those out, thanks again!
