From the looks of this first panel, it wasn't with money...

That's quite a lot of sweat dripping off his face.
Yeah, sweat.
Posted by LASHbrain on :
How'd he get so sweaty, looking up at the China Cat/A-Train dealer guy from down there?
Posted by Set on :
See, now the bit where he sent Damage off to live with the guys who helped him clean up and they had that talk about being 'used' is just weird and a little bit creepy.
No. Wait. It was always weird and creepy. Never mind!

Younger cute Speedy would like to tell sweaty older robot arm Roy a few things ....

Sssh, Lash, we're in polite company!
I remember in Preacher, Cassidy once did the same thing to get a fix. Maybe he and Roy can compare notes.
Though I bet Roy actually liked it.

"When I was 13, I was just like you!"
"I was taking everything that was coming down the pike. Pot, hash, coke, LSD, heroin. Everything."
Just like me?
Where the heck did Roy grow up, anyway? A crack house in Detroit?
I was raised by wild hippies, and I didn't even *see* cocaine until I went to college.
Posted by LASHbrain on :
Roy's enjoyment of women during this time was a bit questionable, as can be seen here...
Posted by LASHbrain on :
And you'll notice in Peebs' photo, Roy specifically states he had nothing in common with his straight friends, which refers to his gay huslter/druggie phase, as everyone knows.

This needs its own thread. Give me a minute...

The score to Requiem for a Dream is stuck in my head now.
Posted by Power Boy on :
... too many visuals pop into my head when I'm reminded of that movie.
the least of which is a gangrenous arm.
hmmmm did Prometheus really rip off Roy's arm or was it just a ruse with Roy covering up the fact his arm fell off years ago due to heroin use ... Roy was tired of continuing the lie ...via prosthetics or holographics ..... they were gonna find out sooner or later, why not blame Prometheus!

In this scene, a China cat-crazed Roy prepares to go all "Brat Pack" on Nightwing's ass!
Posted by Thriftshop Debutante on :
...with a Japanese cat?
Posted by LASHbrain on :
I'll get this little Roy lookalike all the China Cat he wants... one condition: he must do it totally nude!
Posted by LASHbrain on :
One side effect of China cat: numbness in extremities, followed by extremeties exploding or something...

I'm surprised nobody's yet posted that infamous pic of Storm wandering into her parents' old place and finding it full of drug addicts.
It probably deserves honorary Titans membership despite not being DC.

Roy: "I'm all hopped up on China Cat, DIckie... let's go do it!"
Dick: "Why do you never want to make love unless you're HIGH on China Cat?!!? *sobs*"
Posted by LASHbrain on :
Ollie discovers Roy's China Cat stash... wait until he finds out how he afforded it all...
Posted by cleome45 on :
Ollie's right arm had its own parking space back then, yes?
Also, I'm pretty sure that's actually a condom packet.
Posted by LASHbrain on :
Nah-- Speedy was WAY too strung out on China Cat to even think about asking his tricks to use a condom!
And speaking of not using a condom, NO WAY does ROY not get ALL THE CHINA CAT IN CHINA if he desires:
Posted by LASHbrain on :
I can't wait to go out drinking, and return here all buzzed for more Roy/China Cat chat!

You guys sure seem to knw a LOT about heroin! Explains quite a bit, actually.... Posted by Fanfic Lady on :

Wonder where their right hands are? Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Bloody Liberty! And to think, Roy initally turned down all of Aqua Lad's advances during the Silver Age. By the time he embraced his bi-curious side, Aqua Lad was such a strait-edge buzz kill.
Posted by LASHbrain on :
This China Cat's so bright, Roy's gotta wear shades....

Not much to work with, but I might could make something out of Chia Can't... and I can chat.

Possibilities... with much work. It's no "Ken Hair Dad"...

Sex for drugs... there, I said it.

Rereading Roy's litany of experimental drugs makes me feel inadequate.
One New Year's, I had such a good time drinking a glass of Merlot and munching a really small piece of pot brownie. It was so fabulous that I completely missed the memo about how I was contractually obligated to try all the other drugs, too.
