#Bruce is oblivious to Clark’s love but so his Clark

[mkarchin713]

It’s then that Bruce remembers Jon

It was no secret that Jon had a crush on Damian. At least not after Clark publicly blamed him for his little boy growing up, something about Damian inheriting Bruce’s bat like charms.

All Bruce had to do was inject Jon into the paradigm and hope that he disrupts their relationship enough for the two of them to break up.

The worst thing that could happen is that Bruce ends up being Clark’s in law….

Well it’s better than being Harley’s in law.

Danny is a sort of Disney princess with animals. Not alive ones though, they hate him. The ghost animals of Gotham City absolutely adore him. Harley Quinn watches from her window as a teenager with a glowing raccoon on one shoulder, a tiny scraggly kitten on the other, and a half dozen glowing green rats trailing behind him, just walks past her apartment.

Damian Wayne: Future Gay Disaster for Jonathan Kent

Listen. LISTEN. Damian Wayne is so obviously going to grow up gay for Jon Kent that it’s almost embarrassing how no one in the Batfamily is ready for it.

Like, imagine teenage Damian—still all sharp edges, broody glares, and definitely still carrying a sword at inappropriate times—trying to process the fact that his best friend is also absurdly perfect, stupidly strong, and unfairly nice to him at all times.

It starts subtle. Jon smiles at him a little too brightly? Damian short-circuits. Jon picks him up once during a mission? Damian enters a silent existential crisis and has to sit in the Batcave for three hours just thinking about it.

Tim figures it out first. He watches Damian refuse to insult Jon for a full five minutes and just mutters, "Oh my god. He’s doomed."

Dick tries to give Damian the "So You Like Boys?" talk, only for Damian to pull out a 12-page essay on how love is a weakness. But the next day, Jon says one (1) vaguely affectionate thing, and suddenly Damian is on a rooftop at 3 AM whispering “Love is a weakness… love is a weakness…” like he’s trying to cast a spell and make it true.

Meanwhile, Jon? Completely oblivious. Sunshine golden retriever energy, just happy to be there. This boy could literally cradle Damian in his arms while flying him across the city, and he’d just be like, “Best friend privileges!” Meanwhile, Damian is holding on for dear life like, "This is where I die. He smells like fresh air and goodness. This is the end."

Eventually, when Damian does realize his feelings, it’s going to be a full Batfamily event. Jason is taking bets. Tim is smug. Dick is way too excited. And Bruce? He’s just staring at Clark across the table, already regretting everything.

TL;DR: Damian is going to grow up, look at Jon Kent, and have the worst gay panic of his life. And it’s going to be hilarious.

Thinking about Bruce always feeling insecure about living up to his parents legacy, thinking about him feeling unworthy of using the master bedroom when he returned, thinking about him as Brucie uncounsciously taking his hookups to other rooms in the mansion, never to his (parent's), thinking about Bruce welcoming his kids in the master bedroom with open arms whenever they have nightmares, the same way his parents did to him, thinking about Clark feeling insecure about Bruce's true feelings towards him, thinking about Clark being totally oblivious to how big of a deal it is that he's alowed to sleep beside Bruce in the master bedroom.

The sanctity of the master bedroom is SO real. I grew up in a house with separate living quarters for staff (old old house) and the bedrooms for children were in a wing, and then the master suite and guest suites were in another section of the house. The implied distance between those sections is huge, even if they're only one closed door or a few feet away.

Bruce slowly accepting his place in the master suite -- now that's a fic I'd love to write. Keeping the hookups and random encounters to another equally lavish but different room or wing of the Manor, even. Somewhere that's easy to shuttle people in and out of, maybe near the laundry chutes or the servants' stairwells. Sleeping there even when he doesn't have guests, because the ghosts in the master suite are too much.

But maybe, once Dick is living with him, he can't justify it -- the master suite is near the children's rooms, and sleeping on another floor, away from a traumatized child, seems like a terrible idea. Alfred's rooms are too far away, nestled somewhere in the servants' quarters even though Bruce keeps trying to get him to take a guest suite.

So he takes over the suite, making it his own slowly but surely. Yet leaving portions of it untouched -- maybe the old floor to ceiling drapes, with their antiquated trim and beads. The double sinks in the en suite, made for a couple. He removes the four poster bed for a california king, modern enough to dispel any mental similarities. Big enough for a kid to come and hide, after a nightmare.

Clark being allowed in that room, even near that portion of the Manor? That's a huge step forward, a huge display of vulnerability and trust. It's not just Bruce's room, it's his parents' room, it's just off the children's wing, it is in many ways the heart of the residential portion of the Manor. All hallways, servant corridors, etc, lead there. And the more people that stay there, the more that suite is viewed truly as the center of the Manor itself, outside of the Cave and maybe Alfred's kitchen + butler's pantry.

superbat batfam identity porn shenanigans

Bruce and Clark know each other's identities, but the rest of the batfam does not know that Clark Kent is Superman.

The kids are trying to set their dad up on a date and Tim is like "well he obviously has a thing for that reporter, Clark Kent, we should start with him"

And Dick gets real upset bc "what are you talking about, he's obviously in love with superman!"

Damian, "Father does not have feelings for the alien!"

Jason, "Hate to break it to you, brat, but he's had a thing for the alien for years"

Cass, "but he is always so happy to see Clark at events"

Long story short, attempts at setting them up devolve into an all out war between the batfam about who Bruce should end up with, and thus commences the increasingly insane shenanigans to set Bruce up with Clark (Superman) or Superman (Clark)

Team Clark: Tim (he's a top notch reporter who loves to write about injustice and he's a more feasible option than Superman), Damian (he seems weak and bumbling but is a better choice than the alien), Cass (he was very nice when he spoke to her at a recent gala), Duke (Bruce clearly favors Clark to other reporters and even requests him specifically), Diana (was recruited by Tim, knows Superman's identity, but thinks this is hilarious)

Team Superman: Dick (superfan, absolutely wants Superman as his stepdad, and have you seen the way they look at each other?), Jason (I don't care about Bruce's love life (liar) but you'd have to be blind not to see that they're in love), Steph (why settle for a boring reporter when you could have Superman, have you seen his muscles?), Kate (got dragged in, thinks it would be funny if Mr. No Metas In Gotham ended up dating a meta)

(Alfred won't take sides bc he knows)

Bruce knows what's going on and on one hand is trying to figure out the best way to ask Clark to reveal his identity to his kids without telling him why so they stop and on the other hand isn't sure if a united front would be better or worse than a competition

Clark is oblivious, he's just happy to be spending all this extra time with Bruce

[superbat-love]

Bruce Wayne harbored a secret (well, besides being Batman). When he's not playing the billionaire playboy by day, he wrote a controversial relationship column for Gotham's seediest news outlet under the pen name Matches.

His advice was a potent blend of brutal honesty and strategies for navigating Gotham's underhanded legal system. He exposed the toxicity of relationships with manipulative clowns, dismantled the tactics of two-faced partners, and offered escape routes from partners more likely to break your back than your heart.

Matches’ column went viral, even hooking the ever-optimistic Clark Kent, who found himself surprisingly drawn to the column's cynical wisdom. When his charm failed with a certain oblivious Gotham vigilante, Clark anonymously sought Matches’ expertise for a blossoming crush.

Faced with a surprisingly normal question about winning someone’s heart, Bruce felt completely out of his depth. Wholesome romantic relationships were uncharted territory for him. But he can't ignore someone genuinely seeking help. Scrambling for inspiration, Bruce delved into the dusty Victorian romance novels lining his library shelves. If it worked for generations of Waynes before him, it had to stand a chance, right?

Blissfully unaware of Matches’ true identity, Clark took Bruce's hilariously old-fashioned dating advice to heart. He serenaded Bruce from beneath his balcony, formally requested permission to court him from Alfred, and sent him poetic love letters (complete with a lock of his own hair).

Surprisingly, Bruce's terrible suggestions work. While another might be baffled by Clark's sudden eccentricities, Bruce began to understand Clark's intentions. Clark's sincerity slowly won him over.

So, Bruce penned a formal letter in acceptance of Clark's courtship, returning the gesture with a lock of his own hair sealed in a gold locket.

Okay just a lil idea that passed through my brain but-

I can’t help thinking of extreme simp/pining Kon and Rex borderline at war with each other trying to prove themselves (Kon wants to prove he’s more than just a farm boy/clone and Rex wants to prove he’s different and wants to earn her love) to batsis. Idk if you’re interested, but just a funny thought. Especially if batsis takes FOREVER to notice bc she is oblivious to receiving love due to her extreme lack of it in the past, ugh I love her so much.

Anyways that’s it (can I pls be 🫀anon?)

OF COURSE YOU CAN BE 🫀ANON! Hope to see you grace my inbox again 💚💚💚

I grew to like show!Rex, but I really can't get past the constant cheating. He clearly had it in him to be and get better, it's a shame it took this long and it ended like this, so while this won't happen in the main timeline, you can have a little AU~

Rex and Batsis are on friendly terms in the main universe but nothing beyond that- Rex loved "robbing" the manor but also found Bruce ignoring her to this degree utter BS.

Batsis is funny, she's powerful and a great hero. He can't understand why the rich bastard would brush her off just because what? She was a traumatized kid? He adopts them like they're warm bread! And he clearly didn't need to sell her for money like his own parents did- so his obsession starts there.

Now- he knows you find it weird- he and Eve still talk, they're still friends, somewhat, and she warned him that you may be iffy about him- but also he makes you snicker- he, not the Immortal, not Rubby, allll Rex. He sees that as a win.

It starts small, always hanging close by (because he saw you play with people's hair if they were close enough), the first to greet you with a hug, the first to jump on your crazy plans, etc etc

And he worms his way into your life, especially as soon as he and Mark befriend each other, so when Kon-fucking-El shows up at first he brushes him off. But the super just keeps showing up on your dates hangouts. He can't have that.

Rex is clingy, but so is Kon-El. They both have the popularization of being womanizers, and yet Rex can't stop the insecurity from crawling in. Kon-El is a Superman, he's stronger, faster, and the fucker can shoot lasers from his eyes. But he also sees how suspicious you are of Kon due to Superman's affiliation to Batman, so Rex clings to that as he starts working on himself. Cecil almost thinks he's been replaced when he asks for a therapist.

Kon-El though? He thinks the suspicion you have of him is due to being a clone of Superman. So he tries to show how different he is from farm boy, Kansas sweetheart, Clark- Kon likes punk and rock, he doesn't like journalistic writing(even if he does write poetry and tried his hand at songwriting), he goes out of his way to interact with the public and promote underground artists- he tries to show it all because he does like you and he wants you to like him too.

Just like, he doesn't need you to love him, he can love for the both of you. And what's not to love? You stand up to both Lex and Clark, he's seen you degrade Batman publicly, he's seen you rip alien and eldrich monsters with your bare hands- and yet you have the compassion to fund education and health programs, you go out of your way to actively partake into things, serving food, cleaning the streets, helping kids, instead of just throwing money at it.

He craves to see those smiles directed at him, so, seeing Rex making your lips twitch and shoulders shake with laughter makes him see red. If he knew he could get away with it, he'd laser that boy on the spot.

The true clash would start once they both find out the extent of the neglect Batfam made you go through. Rex finally understands why you don't see the flirting as what it is- love was never something you were shown until the Graysons, and it wasn't something you thought would happen to you. And Kon understands that the suspicion of him isn't because he's a clone- he can't help but wonder if you, like him asked for Superman to come and help and he just didn't. And he understands your drive to give friendship away so easily- it's all you wanted from your siblings.

Rex starts being a constant in your life, every day showing you how he's changed and every day becoming a pillar for you- but so does Kon. Kon-El has a harder job of getting into your life, but one talk about how he didn't know the bats were like that, of how disappointed he is in Tim and Dick, two of the greatest support he'd had when dealing with Superman earns him an open door.

The clash starts as soon as Kon starts filling Batsis's room with flowers and love notes- well it starts with one bouquet but Rex steals Cecil's card and starts buying bigger bouquets until you start complaining that it's enough and crazy, pls stop.

Cecil of course notices, but it's flowers, food, clothes, and dates- he may judge the expensive jewelry but it's not deathly weapons so whatever, he has the money to burn.

When that stops being a thing- Kon moves to trying to set up dates, sadly you're both heroes, and while he has a more free schedule you do not. "Sorry, I'm busy at that hour, and right after I'm seeing Rex with Mark and Eve-" sure you pulled out your schedule and tried to find an hour or day just for him, but he didn't quite hear it all when Rex was brought up.

The rivalry continues, "dates" keep getting crashed on both sides, and then the multi-Marks show up. For some reason, your coms are down, and neither can see you as they try to keep as many people alive because it's the first thing you'd do- but when a Mark goes straight for Rex, Kon hesitates. It'll be such an easy way to win- even if Rex becomes a martyr in your eyes.

Whether he takes it or saves Rex to get a fair fight for your heart I'll let you all decide :)

A Happy House: Part 1

Headcanon that when there are any quarrels or fights between league members, they cool down at Billy’s apartment.

I see this happening in the future when Billy’s like, early to mid 20s. He’s finally settled to the point where he doesn’t always worry about becoming a homeless kid again. People in the League know him as understanding to a fault, and always willing to listen to both sides of the story. His apartment is homey, and there are always magical creatures or family walking around, like his sister, best friend, or uncle Dudley. Maybe a celestial or a god is visiting. Maybe the universe’s higher ups are having a meeting in his dining room. Whatever is happening, it calms everyone down.

Sometimes it’s Connor, coming in from another fight with Clark. Sometimes it’s a fellow Magic user who feels ostrisized because of their power. Other times, it’s a Batfamily member who wants Bruce off their tail, and Billy will gladly use a shield spell to give them privacy from Batman’s detective skills. Other times it’s members of the Team after arguing with the JL. Or the JL sorting out a quarrel amongst themselves with Billy’s careful judgement.

Billy doesn’t know why he’s such a calming presence to them. He’s known them since he was a child, yes, a kid who hadn’t even hit the double digits. But he tends to be blunt. Straight to the point. He makes sure to show he cares, but the feeling can feel foreign at times when the world keeps biting you in the ass. And he can get mad when people are so obliviously stupid it hurts. He’s seen and heard more than enough arguments between adults to know when they’re pulling bullshit or saying something that shouldn’t be said. It’s an art at this point.

But he’s mostly quiet when someone comes over, and when the other person is permitted to enter, he lets them hash the argument out themselves, offering nothing but privacy and a smile when they leave.

…So yeah, he’s confused. But he’s just happy to help.

And the JL, Team and Titans are grateful too. He’s their relationship wingman! The guy who you know to go to when things get heated. His home is an oasis of calm and care.

They can watch as the Batson siblings banter in the kitchen. They can watch Billy bring John Constantine in by the ear and rip him a new one. They can smile in amusement as Billy puts one over on his fellow higher ups in the magic community on a freakin ZOOM call!

He’s easy to be around. There’s no pressure from him, no questions needing answers. He’s also not biased(unless it’s more than obvious who’s in the wrong).

So yeah, the heroes love their not-so-little-anymore magic man.

They love him so much that they immediately clock onto when things go horribly, horribly wrong.

See, Billy doesn’t like to get angry. When he’s Cap, he’s afraid of the power he possesses. He gets nauseous when someone bows to him like he’s their boss or something(which you are Billy bean, you gotta deal with it). Even when he’s in his mortal form, he doesn’t go beyond a flood of curse words or a couple jabs built off stress.

But there are a few people who know what buttons to push, and they push them. A lot. So much so that he tends to get a little…loud.

Oh and did I mention he didn’t exactly TELL his coworkers that he had an uncle? Hell, that he did have a family, they just didn’t care enough to be with him?

Yeah, that’s not gonna lead to anything, I’m sure.

[honeyplus]

Hi hello, Damian pulling a Talia-esque move with his own child is INSANE/pos. But with that devastating concept I wonder: would the child be like Damian and be able to pick out Jon in a building with hundreds of people in it- or be like Jon in the sense that he had no idea that he wasn't fully human for so long,let alone who his other bio parent is? Damian raising his kid knowing that Jon's involvement would be like his own relationship with his father, impossibly distant no matter the proximity. Damian raising his child angry at the thought of Jon treating their child like Clark did Kon,even if he's more like Lois than anyone.

Like.. Damian canonically KNOWS he's loved but he doesn't really FEEL loved by Bruce most of the time. Would he refuse the same fate extended to his child,his flesh and blood due to that gut-wrenching feeling alone? Or would he do it seeing Jon chase his father's shadow years into adulthood,knowing he would never be his father's equal but his little lanky farm boy forever and ever... Not wanting either dynamic for his beloved baby,even if it will hurt everyone around him at the betrayal.

Omg Clark and Lois not knowing they're grandparents. Clark not knowing the person he distrusts most in his son's life is his grandchild's-Jon's kid- father. Lois missing the opportunity to see another child of hers grow up,to be the grandparent her parents never were... The absolute meltdown Jon will have because Damian,his tether,his other half- didn't think HE would be a good dad for their kid even as they float after a running dog and Damian struggling to coach them through the method of flying .. My mind is plagued now thanks/pos HORRIFIC ENDING THOUGHT: would the kid look more like Damian like he looks like Talia,so much so that Jon wouldn't recognize himself in them like Bruce did? God I'm throwing up😭😭

My HC is like in Invincible, even the tiniest bit of kryptonian DNA can make a very powerful person. So the kid definitely has powers from the start but Damian hopes the kid doesn’t.

But besides that I honestly think Damian would make a great father. My idea is that the child looks EXACTLY like him so it’s hard for anyone who doesn’t know to guess that it’s also Jon’s.

Damian considers the baby his, it’s got his DNA, it’s his kid and no one is taking them away. I’m not into the whole Damian ending up as Batman and I think if he had a child that child would take priority over EVERYTHING else, including hero business.

Jon is flighty and also Superman. Damian is worried he wouldn’t be there enough, that (like you said) the child would have a torn relationship with him. And what if they did break up? He’d have to give up his kid certain days of the week? What if Clark didn’t consider him a good enough parent and suddenly Damian is having to prove himself. So in his head him not telling Jon is justified.

And to his credit, he’s an excellent parent but it does make him guilty. It’s awful watching Jon go around oblivious to everything. And if you consider how Damian would have to lie it could wreck any romantic relationship because it could involve a third party (a woman Damian hooked up perhaps)

And yeah, Jon would totally freak the hell out because by time he knows the kid is old enough for it to matter. And suddenly the entire thing Damian was trying to avoided happens, his kid and their father have a giant space between them and it’s all his fault.

[susiecarter]

i’m a big fan of your writing! i was wondering, you’ve included superbat wedding (or i guess future superbat wedding) in some fics, do you have any headcanons about the logistics of that? as in are they married publicly, legally, etc, or is it a secret relationship sort of situation bc it would be too complicated to work with their covers?

:D Thank you so much, anon, that's so kind of you! I'm really glad you've enjoyed my writing so much. ♥

AND rest assured that I have about eighty-four different headcanons about Bruce and Clark getting married, haha, and one day I might even write a few of them:

Married publicly? YES PLEASE—there's nothing I don't love about the idea of Bruce Wayne officially shacking up with Clark Kent, the last person ANYONE would have believed was capable of making an honest man out of that guy, and against all odds, they are VISIBLY happy together??? :'D I am so enamored of the idea that Clark, genuinely secure in his life and his relationships, would actually kind of have a blast Clark-Kenting his way around in Bruce Wayne's public orbit, being earnest and kind and firmly "oblivious" to any high-society shade getting thrown his way; and if he got to do it with Clark, got to be a version of himself who was allowed to be in love with Clark and let everybody know it ... honestly, I think Bruce would enjoy that also, it would be so much less like work and so much more like fun, he'd get to say awful soppy things he definitely actually means and watch Clark laugh and flush and mock him gently for it, he'd get to spend lots and lots of time with Clark in public and there wouldn't have to be any kind of cover for it, it would be great. :D

I would also love to write variations on this: Bruce Wayne is publicly married to Superman—it surprises no one that Bruce would ask, but why the hell did Superman say yes? Is Wayne really that good in the sack? (Superman, in an interview: He's a good person, and you should all be ashamed of yourselves for saying so many unkind things about him >:( Bruce, later: STOP IT YOU'RE RUINING MY BAD REPUTATION) :DDDDD! Clark Kent's married to Batman, so he can wander around in Gotham at night interviewing people and NO ONE fucks with him? (Well, and then somebody does, right, hoping they can give the Bat orders if they've got his husband held at gunpoint ... except within three seconds somehow the gun's in the husband's hand??? When did he even move???) :DDDDD!

Married secretly? YES PLEASE—I would love this if it were the setup for a reveal later (like, the story starts with Bruce insisting to Clark that it has to be secret, Clark wistfully agreeing that everything he's saying makes sense and Clark totally understands ... but then Bruce is the one who finds himself struggling to keep his mouth shut, who discovers within himself a deep well of possessiveness he hadn't known was there that really HATES watching Clark take his ring off every morning before leaving for work, and finally he has to crack himself open about it and quietly ask whether Clark would mind switching gears and going public :'D) ...

... and I would love this if it stayed a secret but in a good way (Batman and Superman have to get married because *waves hands* aliens make them do it, they're not allowed in the space temple on a space mission unless they AND their relationship have been consecrated and blessed by the gods ... which throws a wrench straight into the middle of Bruce and Clark's relationship, they had BOTH AGREED that they couldn't see any reasonable way to get married and that that was fine, they were emotionally committed to each other and that was what mattered, but something about going through this ceremony together cracks them BOTH open about it, and Bruce can see it in Clark, that it meant a lot to him to do it but he'll never ask Bruce for something Bruce indicated was off the table = Bruce quietly arranges a secret wedding for them at Martha's house with the rest of the League ♥).

So, yeah. I think just about anything is plausible if you're willing to handwave a little bit :D and there are scenarios I really enjoy no matter which way the logistics get handled, haha. (If you like one option more than the others, though, or if there's a specific married!Superbat idea you want to talk about, feel free to send me another ask! ♥)

[bruciemilf]

A crack treated seriously concept that I have just swimming in my mind;

Runaway sugar baby Bruce Wayne AU.

Here's the thing; Bruce and Harvey are married. Bruce may not realize they are! but they are.

Oblivious fucker really went,

" yes, I will have children with my best friend, raise them together happily, occasionally have sex, and wear this cool ring he gave me. Platonically, of course."

I think it all started when Tim came home from school, wearing a bit of a guilty expression, asking with a pinch embarrassment if Bruce could pretend to be a doctor for career day.

Bruce blinks, " I am a doctor, darling." Graduated with flying colors, mind you!

"Well, yeah, but...You know, not anymore. "

True. Ever since he adopted Jason and Tim, he just found it harder and harder to leave home. They were just too precious and he didn't want to miss a moment!

"I just don't understand why he'd lie about it."

"I can," Harvey looks so handsome, arranging his tie. He does a mess of it, but he doesn't look less tantalising,

" Little brats would be...Yknow, mean. They get finicky when they see a weak spot."

He knows it's Harvey because there's no accent melting like whisky on his mouth. " Weak spot?"

" doll, cmon, --"

" I do work, Harvey. Just because it's not defending criminals doesn't mean it's less vital."

" I knowthat. But you're also a rich guy who, let's face it, wouldn't need to work a day In his life. And that's fine by me. "

because Harvey HATED seeing his mom break her back to support their family when his father was drowning face down in debts.

He wouldn't put anyone through that, let alone his pretty little husband. But Bruce doesn't take this well.

" well! I'll show you! I'm more than capable of making it on my own, I'll prove it!"

Now. Bruce doesn't think too much. He's not an expert in it. Man can stitch up a 5 inch incision with floss, but his own well being? Leave it to Alfred.

But he'll make them proud. So next time, they don't have to lie.

He just packs up way too many luggages, packs Damian up too, and leaves while Harvey's at oh his back breaking, gruelling office job.

It's only when he's on a bus that he realizes he forgot the rest, but that'd be cruel! Their boys loved their father.

Dick, who's in his I Hate Dad phase, is extremely hysterical while they leave to find Bruce. Only stopping occasionally to fix his eyeliner, then start over again.

Jason, Harvey's second oldest, drives beside them on his motorbike.

He guesses its an extra middle finger to him to not wear a helmet. His beloved little hellion, raised on the devil's edge.

"Listen to me; If I find him, I'm moving back home. If I don't, I'll put you in the ground."

" I'll let you."

Now; Bruce does find a place. It's a little town with big characters.

Harley has a diner that she's more than happy to welcome him in, even if Bruce, Spoiled Spouse of the Year, can't quite pick up.

Anything for old roomies.

But there is someone in there who catches Bruce's attention. Towns mechanic.

Clark, his name tag says, who played with Damian behind Bruce's back while he talked to Harley.

He smells of salty motor oil; Fresh sweat, smoked apple pie. His eyes are dreamy blue, rendered with sharp cleverness. And Clark likes him.

Clark recommends him a good motel, brings Damian some toys to play with, even brings his own babies so they can have a playdate. " They're not mine. The toys! These two are. I have a receipt from the hospital."

"...A birth certificate?"

He's delightfully awkward.

When Harvey comes to pick him up, when Bruce jumps in his arms, claws at a pristine shirt stained with his brand new blisters and cracks and worked hands, he's not awkward.

He's disappointed; Like Bruce strangled the joy from his soul.

"You're...Married?"

When Bruce and Harvey respond, in perfect, consice sync, " Oh no, darling,--" " Yes he is, four eyes--" they're ALL confused.

"Oh, dear..."

Batman's not-so super spectacular week

How would you personally prefer and make things to go if Damijon were to become canon?

Firstly, slow burn it, make insinuations that they might like each other so the readers can get used to the idea. They don’t need to commit to anything, just have them have repressed feelings for each other they don’t understand. Jon being someone who maybe wears it on his sleeve and Damian being oblivious to this, although it may bleed through with Damian - like feeling protective or even jealous at times and not knowing what to do with it.

Make them awkward please. It would sweet representation for the young queer experience of not knowing how to properly articulate your feeling and express them - not knowing the exact words for how you feel and what you’re doing.

I feel like if anything were to come to light then… I feel like Damian would probably reject Jon or possibly vice versa.

If Damian; “I don’t really have time for this,” type of thing.

If Jon; “I prefer us as friends,” even.

Then after that Damian can progress in a direction that makes him more raw with his emotions and Jon more strong willed and stern. If anything were to happen then they’d probably do it in secret, I think it would be sad but it would also be nice to watch characters who are scared to come out at first. It would feel more real. Then at times maybe Bruce, Lois, or Clark can find glimpses of maybe something else is going on - I know I love Bruce, Clark and Lois so much and it’s not likely this were to happen but it’d be fun to see them maybe not really get it at first. A lot of the time in comics they have it to where the parents accept immediately which is realistic TO THEM because they are heroes but I still feel like even heroes can have these moments if they’re out of the loop with certain cultures.

I imagine they become serious in their 20s in my head and still keep their same dynamic as they had in Super Sons, I prefer if they fight like a married couple and kept their personalities but also were able to grow along side each other and on their own.

Their relationship itself could be something that makes them want to find an identity outside of their fathers - in my opinion my least favorite thing about their characters is that because they are the blood related sons they automatically are first for mantle and I hate it - what if this was the catalyst that tells them they want to step out of their shadows and despite everything be something else entirely like Dick had to even though he was first Robin.

That’s honestly perfect to me. For Damian and Jon to do that with someone who has the same struggles as them as a hero would be feel so raw and perfect for the both of them.

That’s me.

5 Times Clark Barely Hid How He Feels And One Time He Stopped Fucking Around

Clark rambles from his place in a chair, shoulder to shoulder with Bruce, "I hate the galas! All of them! Rich people are so annoying sometimes, you know?" Bruce raises his eyebrow as he takes a sip of the black coffee that has way too much sugar in it, "Are they now?" "Yes!" Clark exclaims and as silence falls between them there's a moment of realization on Clark's end. "I mean, not you. You're not annoying. I love y- I mean spending time with you." He says quickly and wow that was a nice save, Kent. Definitely not suspicious to the World's Greatest Detective. Not at all.

Today the spotlight is on a single letter: L because we recieved some Long Prompts and we decided to gruop them here!

-L

Last meeting Locker room Lost Powers/Abilities Lost in Ikea Love spell

-Long Prompts

Clark was the best test pilot the military had. All he wanted to do was fly. His program gets defunded suddenly, and he's out of a job and left looking for work. He's too good a pilot to work for a spoiled, rich, arrogant playboy, but work is work. The view's not half-bad, at least. Bruce is running for president. When an attempt is made on his life, he hires the best bodyguard he can find. Only problem is he wants more from Clark Kent than just round-the-clock protection. Oh, the press are going to have a field day if they catch wind of this. Clark's new, Earth History professor is an honest-to-Rao alien from Earth. Professor Bruce Wayne is capable, intelligent, and handsome to boot. He's also humorless, unapproachable, and somehow oblivious to the fact that all the staff and students think 'cold and unapproachable alien' sounds like a snack. Clark would like a good grade, sure. But he'd also like a date. Cupid is real, but his aim is absolutely trash. The business of making people fall in love is stressful, and maybe he had a bit too much to drink the night before. Whoops. Newspaper mogul, Bruce Wayne, takes an arrow to the heart meant for the worst reporter he employs, one perpetually-absent, ridiculously clumsy Clark Kent. Serves Bruce right for being heroic. He'd been about to fire Clark, but now he just kinda wants to marry him. Superman and Batman talk awkwardly about the latest news out of their cities. Superman because he reported the news Batman wants to talk about, and Batman because he IS the news Superman wants to talk about. When Bruce sees Superman for the first time, it's love at first sight. But outside of falling out of a window or something, he has no idea how to get Superman's attention. Clark Kent is in graduate school working on his Master's/phd. He becomes friends with freshman college student Dick Grayson. He hears a lot about Dick's grumpy father, so he's pretty sure he's got a good idea of what the man is like and agrees to meet him when he's in town for dinner.. He hadn't pictured the charming slightly older man who took him to bed last night. Bruce says yes immediately when Clark invites him to go flying. The issue is just how Clark decides to hold him while they're 5,000 feet in the air. Lex Luthor complains to his billionaire friend Bruce Wayne about his first boyfriend (Clark Kent.) It is awkward for everyone involved. Clark & Bruce have jsut got together but everytime they get close to sex, Clark backs out. Bruce in his self loathing era thinks it's bc Clark has changed his mind and realises he's too good for Bruce when in reality Clark is scared of frightening Bruce and accidentally hurting , reminding him that he isn't human

[bbbbbbbbatman]

once upon a time for a mission, Bruce had to learn victorian flower language and while it hasn't been relative since then, that knowledge has always lurked in the background

bruce and clark start dating and clark starts bringing bruce flowers, but all the flowers have negative meanings

queue bruce way overthinking about whether or not clark is trying to send a message and going back and forth between being convinced clark knows the meanings or that he's oblivious

'like, it's clark, and he would never do passive aggressive stuff like that, right? he would just say it outright, but he is a reporter so isn't it his job to be knowledgeable? but he gives the flowers pretty casually, not like he's put a ton of thought into them, but he was raised on a farm, and they know stuff about plants, don't they? but...'

(clark has no idea, he just picks whatever looks prettiest to him)

it's bruce, so you know he gets worked up over it over time internally while repressing it externally, so clark has no idea this is a problem until bruce finally snaps and asks him aggressively if he knows the meanings of the flowers he's been giving

poor clark is dumbfounded like "i didn't even know they had meanings"

and bruce is so relieved and now embarrassed as he has to explain to clark what he's been worrying about this whole time

clark assures him that he loves him very much and that the flowers didn't mean anything beyond a nice gesture

clark continues to give him flowers but always makes sure to look up the meaning of them first

I love fics when the JL meets the Batfamily randomly because (1) All of the bats have Bruce's mannerisms when wearing the mask so its basically 8 batmans (with varying colours) roaming around the watchtower but two or three are nice and one might shoot you if you aren't Wonder Woman and (2) The family of detectives are all so oblivious to the fact that the JL doesn't know them.

And yeah they know The OG Robin runs the Titans and the Zombie one runs the Outlaws but they're so different and the same?? Like you genuinely don't know who is who but the one with the sword is related to Ra's al Ghul and the one who doesn't talk is related to Lady Shiva so sometimes things get awkward.

But then you have the fact that the blue one calls Superman Uncle Kal and the red one calls Wonder Woman Auntie Di so there's that. And at least 1 bat is dating someone else's protégé so there's really no saving them.

The Justice League seeing the Bats and seeing them bagging their previous sidekicks ladies, gentlemen and non binary individuals:

Green Arrow watching The Crime Lord Bat pick up Lian from Daycare and then pat Roy on the back promising that he'll make dinner tonight.

Wonder Woman and Flash watching Cassie and Bart flutter around the stalker Robin who's doing the Bat thing with his cape and looking so much like his dad Barry thinks he might faint.

Barry flabbergasted because Wally is lying on Acrobat Robin's lap while he talks to one (?) of his wives who herself is eyeing the first Wonder Girl.

Superman watching his cousin flock around Batgirl (Acrobat Robin's wife?) while she's dotted on by Zatanna and the other wife (+Donna).

Wonder Woman watching Yara be in awe of the silent bat,the purple one and the yellow one (who apparently works the day shift??). Donna's flocking around both of Dick's wives and Cassie is still with the stalker Robin.

Half of the JL completely stunned because Superboy (the little one who is still little) is fluttering around sword Robin and hanging onto every word he says. The older superboy is carrying stalker Robin around like its a normal occurrence. Bruce and Clark don't even bat and eye about it.
