It's not that I hate fanon or that I think fanon is inherently less intelligent or morally wrong, but a LOT of fanon is based in racism, misogyny, and classism that I feel like a lot of you accept without question.
WHY is Duke (Daredevil, son of a god, has never once allowed himself to be defined by anyone's actions but his own) relegated to a background role, only characterized by reacting to the whims of other bats?
Why is Babs - Birds of Prey leader and backbone of the hero society, tells Bruce to fuck off and die 4 times a day and is constantly ruining her relationships by being biased and unhinged - Gotham bound, the mature responsible mom of the group who never argues with Bruce and never gets in trouble?
Why is Dick, both a tactical genius and master manipulator, a himbo only appreciated for his sex appeal? Especially when he is both Romani (group of people demonized and condemned as hypersexual by their nature alone) and an SA victim.
WHY is Damian "feral" and "uncivilized" despite being raised as a literal prince? Half of you treat him like a sociopath with no hope of redemption for an unfunny three second joke and the other half of you go full throttle into Bruce's white savior bullshit so that Damian can be "redeemed". Y'know when you're not villainizing Talia and acting like Dick is his other parent, actually.
WHY is Stephanie - extremely intelligent detective who can't stand Bruce and has a living mother she loves - lumped in as another member of the Batfam, a blonde ditz who only cares about prank wars and emotionally supporting Tim?
WHY is Cass - intelligent, a grown adult, suicidal perfectionist - emotionally intelligent, primarily existing to support the characters around her, immediately accepting of everyone she meets regardless of her own morals?
Why is Bruce the golden standard? Enough so that though everyone in the fandom could agree that he's an emotionally unstable wreck, being considered "the most like him" is seen as a compliment and not the HIGHEST insult? Everyone would agree if I said that Bruce purposely self sabotages his relationship half the time and the other half he simply does things without caring about the emotional impact it will have on people because he has to be the smartest in the room, but if I said that makes him a shit partner and emotionally abusive parent the fandom would bend over backwards to argue with me.
Why is Tim "the best Robin" when Dick Grayson invented the mantle, it is impossible for someone to embody the spirit of Robin better than him because he made it and he created what being Robin means. Maybe Tim is the best in Bruce's eyes, but what Robin means and who has the right to give it over was a significant thing they argued about. Tim the high school drop out, and yet also somehow the smartest? Tim "the most like Bruce" except no he's not, that's Cass. Poor neglected, abused, victimized little Timmy (the rich boy at the elite boarding school with loving albeit busy parents and almost every instance of him being victimized by another character has either been racist bullshit - The Al Ghuls and Rose Wilson- or a complete 180 for the character that made no sense when examined through the lens of prior characterization - Jason for instance.)
Almost every fanon trope that gets passed around like gospel seems to deliberately push POC characters and women into the background and strip them of interesting complex traits and stories, usually for the purpose of fitting them all into bite sized incorrect quote character types and uncomplicated narrative roles that are not only completely divergent from canon, but primarily exist to prop up the two rich white boys.
Also the insistence that Bruce, a 20 year old at the time, should actually be excused for how much he mentally and emotionally fucked Dick up because really they're more like siblings! While deciding that Dick at the same age was actually the perfect candidate to be Damian's new parent/guardian...have you lost the fucking plot you don't even make sense to yourselves.
Okay I lied at the beginning, I do hate fanon. You guys are so uncritical about the media you consume it is BEYOND just letting people enjoy things and have fun. I guess it's one thing if you KNOW this stuff isn't canon and UNDERSTAND why these tropes are problematic and you engage with it as such, it's fine read and write what you want, but just spreading the same nonsense around and parading it around as "better than canon" (version of the character so bland and boring you've somehow made the old white men at DC look like geniuses in the art of representation) is just infuriating.
#I didn't talk about Jason because every other post I make is about how bad fanon has fucked him up#and I would have mentioned Helena but honestly her being pushed out of the family is more a matter of people not reading comics#I wouldn't consider Jason her “replacement” accept in the moral philosophy department#wherein Helena feels an inherent guilt that Jason simply doesn't#and while Helena is firmly an anti hero Jason is willing to kill heroes if it means accomplishing his goals#I do think there's something to be said about his fanon relationship to Bruce and Cass#that directly replaces Helena's actual canon relationships though#If any of you bring up the Catholic Jason headcanon I'll kill you#I made posts about that already she did not trademark Catholicism#dc#canon vs fanon#bruce wayne#dick grayson#damian wayne#stephanie brown#cassandra cain#Barbara Gordon#duke thomas#tim drake#It IS really weird how you guys keep giving Bette Kanes actual canon identity to random people#like damn you couldn't even do a cursory Google search before you gave Wally or Tim or w/e her mantle

Hello ;)
I was wondering if maybe you could show us some sketches of Stanley (The Green One… Hehe)
He seems like a handsome and charming boy to me! I think I like him because he gives me Wally vibes @:)
PS:Sorry if there are any mistakes in my English. I literally went into the translator and copied this.
Of course! More Stanley art on the way!
Ngl, drawing this charming globetrotter is not an easy task but I certainly love it... Anyway! Most of these are works that I'll probably never finish, but I still want to draw a comic or at least a sketch of him interacting with the other neighbors. It would be so fun.
#welcome home#welcome home puppet show#welcome home arg#welcome home oc#oc#original character#wally darling#home#fanart#art#sketch#drawing#nature#plants#flowers#puppets#I feel like he and Frank would sit and talk about nature for hours#Julie too! but she would rather talk to the flowers on his head... lmao

Wally, messing with his hair to hide his balding area: stupid genetics and stupid fuckin husband with his stupid amazing hair... Stop laughing at it, Richard.
Dick, snorting: please, I'm not *hrnk* I love that spot why do you hide it? *Snort*
Wally, turned around glaring and his darling hubby with amazing hair: you know why, you little shit, not even ageing is safe from you model like grace ass genes. Should just sleep at Kyle's at this point if I want someone to laugh at my pain.
Dick, laughing now: nooo please *holds his arm* don't go sweetheart, you know I still find out handsome right?
Wally: ... Yeah.
Dick, hugging his hubby: you want to terrorizes Slade at the nursing home to feel better baby?

Mostly happy with Titans 16 - couple of places I’d have preferred a different emphasis, really not sure about Pete Woods’ Donna, but…
But that’s my boy and his perpetual imposter syndrome.
#Wednesday Spoilers#mildly confused at Dick & Donna being furtive about her taking over the field leadership#she’s done it before#when Roy was on the squad even#also that panel with Donna talking about her and Roy’s relationship#I’ve mostly given up on keeping track of what’s currently canon but weren’t Roy and Donna flirting/dating in the previous Titans run?#I’m anticipating/hoping they get back together in this run#I don’t do OTPs but if I did Roy/Donna would be up there#roy harper#donna troy#dick grayson#wally west#titans#Arsenal#troia#nightwing#flash

⚠️Controversial opinion ⚠️
In the animated teen titans universe, jinx and Wally are WAY better than cyborg and jinx.
#teen titans#wally west#jinx#I grew up with them#so I’m a little biased#I still rewatch their episodes#and don’t give me that#“oh by cyborg accepts her for who she is#crap#because you should be with someone who brings out the best in you#someone who makes you be a better person#Wally sees that she has the potential to be good#and brought that out in her#I could talk about this for days#I still love cyborg tho

Fic prompt: The Pink Ladies and the T-Birds become convinced that Cynthia’s dating someone and won’t leave her alone until she tells them so she freaks out and tells them she’s dating Buddy
Immediately afterwards she rushes to Buddy’s house and pretty much goes “hey so I know that I’ve told you over and over again how much I hate you but can you pretty please pretend to date me” and he’s like ok fine but you owe me
And so the entire thing is just those two fumbling around trying to convince everyone that they’re dating (which is much harder for Cynthia than it is for Buddy) and the two of them becoming actual friends
#cynthia essentially begs lydia not to be mad but she just thinks it’s the funniest shit#like none of the thespians believe it for a second and some of them are like ‘it’s the heteronormativity talking sweetie’#including mr vaughn#he’s like ‘I did not set you and lydia up day after day just for you to do this#eventually there’s like a messy coming out scene where cynthia tells buddy the real reason she’s pretending to date him#and maybe you could throw in a little bit of wally/buddy in there too with buddy going up to cynthia and having a Bisexual Meltdown#anyways ignore me I’m just spouting nonsense at this point#rotpl#grease rotpl#grease rise of the pink ladies#rise of the pink ladies#cynthia zdunowski#cynthia rotpl#thesbians#lynthia#buddy aldridge#buddy rotpl#i think they would definitely sit down together and bitch about sports#cynthia would absolutely destroy buddy at football#cynthia and buddy friendship supremacy#supportive buddy supremacy#protective friend and boyfriend buddy supremacy

'Her contempt for the present King cut like a knife through everything she said. On the table was a copy of the current issue of the London Picture Post. It was covered with a photograph of the present King and the Duke taken during childhood. "Look at that," cried the Duchess. "Whenever did you see the differences in their character more tellingly expressed?" She pointed to the attitude of the young Prince of Wales - erect, hands just so alongside his sailor's pants, heels together, toes out in the proper military attitude. Young Bertie looked harassed and fidgety, his feet apart, his hands nervously plucking at his pants, his collar in some disarray...'
-Diary entry from David's ghost writer Charles Murphy, January 1950
From Once A King: The Lost Memoir of Edward VIII page 241-2
Isn't it funny how 'body language analysis' usually just confirms your preexisting biases and most of the photos people use as 'evidence' reveal absolutely nothing?
#edward viii#george vi#wallis simpson#duchess of windsor#i am FLOORED that i was able to just google and find the exact photo she was talking about that never seems to happen anymore#and I was not surprised to find the photo didn't really reveal anything except those boys look unhappy like they do in most childhood photo#at least Wallis was personally involved in the situation and not doing this purely because of weird parasocial hatred like SOME people do..

Last post for now I have attacks to finish up and start, winged heart au, Slade bullying because if that man has no haters I died.
Wally, kidnapped: once again, I am regretting leaving Central at this point. At least Dr. Zoom just wanted to rip my heart out.
Slade: shut up, god he really like the talkative ones.
Wally: excuse you, some people just have better taste. And that's talkative doctor to you, Didn't waste my time getting my doctrine for Dr. Not to be used, god damnit.
Slade: ain't you scared? You are kidnapped, by me,,, I can kill you, you know. I'm going to use you to get Nightwing to join me, have something!
Wally: you think you're the only person who kidnapped me before? To harm that feral bird of a man? Been there, done that, got the scars and T-shirts.
Slade: well, I'm much —
Wally: more cruel, and will make you regret this calm attitude, blah, blah, blah. I've seen more scarier toddler in the pediatric office during vaccine time than this.
Slade: I'm much more threatening than a toddler!
Wally: says the deadbeat dad who never seen his toddlers, really something there.
Slade: I don't need this!
Wally: a moment of silence for the one intelligent thing he said today, because there's not gonna be a repeat.
Slade: ugh one more word and I'll forget the plan and gut you now.
Wally, stubborn, glare: make my day, sunshine.
A few hours, Nightwing came in and saw Slade weeping in the corner and Wally untying himself.
Dick: are you hurt!?
Wally: rope burns but that's it, he'll probably need therapy for the tongue lashing I gave him.
Slade, sobbing: just take him! Get him away from me! I'm not stupid, you are!
Wally: if your wits were as sharp as you said you'd be welding a butter knife.
Slade, crying: stop it!!
Wally, poke Dick in the chest: you owe me a dinner, I'm starving, do what you need to do though first I'll be waiting outside. *Left*
Dick, jaw drop: I'm going to marry him so hard!
Slade: no! Don't! He's a monster!
Dick: shut up, you grown ass man.
#dick grayson#wally west#slade wilson#birdflash#winged heart au#i really hate this man with a passion#i will bully him forever#if i die my last words will be : slade a bitch ass pussy of a character *dies in serving cunt*#if i have children they will be tasked to bully this man#i love him but i hate him if it makes sense#Anywhoozie back to drawing! after i eat lol woopsie#i wask talking to Nebby about another idea okay#she's asleep tho

Uhhhhhhhh Silly madi art under the tag and it's related to my 9-1-1 DC au and part of it was making silly birdflash fankids so uhhhhh yeah you guys can have these IG
So for context!! These are my birdflash fankids!! Their names are Mary Martha and Nora Iris Grayson-West and they are Wally and Dick's kids!!
Fun facts about them are that Mary has a special interest in lightning/storms and Nora has a special interest on the circus. Mary's interest really came naturally meanwhile Nora's is because Dick would tell her stories about Haly's circus as bedtime stories. Also Mary takes more in Wally's speed and Nora takes more in Dick's acrobatic tendencies even though she also has speed if I were to put them in the DC universe.
In terms of Personality, Nora is very shy and will hide behind her fathers' legs when interacting with strangers while Mary is a very loud kid and always willing to meet new people. If Mary thinks a person is good enough, then Nora will slowly interact with them because her big sister thinks they're good that's gotta mean they can't be that bad right? Oh and Also in the first drawing Mary is about 8-9 and Nora is about 5-6. In the second drawing I think Mary is probably around 5-6 years old when she starts excitedly telling her dad lightning facts!!
#Madi's art :>#Wally West#uhhh implied Birdflash#Madi rambles#this is very sketchy but I said I would talk more about my 9-1-1 au here so like I'm trying#and also before anyone says anything Yes Nora looks a lot like Bloom from Winx club and it was unintentional but now that is her first#halloween costume she got to choose all by herself trust#stole that from Ru when I made the comparison on Discord#BUT UH YEAHHHHHH HOPE YOU GUYS THINK THESE ARE SILLY#madi's 9-1-1 DC au tag#<- that was apparently the tag I used for this au and I forgot the DC part I'm so
