#DC Orphan

[justletmebeanerdinpeace]

So I saw a tumblr post which got hijacked into a TikTok about the batboys attending a con (the TikTok account cut off the @ so if anyone knows OP please tag them! EDIT: I found OP! It’s @5catsinnatrenchcoat - thank you for your service).

The post suggested that Dick would wear the Discowing suit (he 100% would), Jason would steal the Batsuit, Tim would lose a lookalike contest, and Dami would wear a tiny Nightwing suit.

However, this got me thinking, because if this shit was going down in Gotham, a Rogue would 100% show up, and lead to a number of outcomes. Including:

The Joker turns up, but absolutely no one takes him seriously. Everyone thinks he’s just a guy in a costume in very bad taste.

The Rogues learn from Joker’s mistake, and so do the Bats. As such, it becomes standard procedure for someone to be at the con, undercover. This results in that one time that Tim, sleep deprived and dressed as Spoiler, had to fight Scarecrow and on instinct went to grab his bo, only to realise it was some random cosplayer’s and made of kitchen roll tubes.

Another year, for whatever reason, none of the family is available (Dick was injured, Jason and Tim were with their teams, Cass is abroad, Steph is with her mum, Duke had a civilian commitment, Damian is too young to attend as a civilian alone) which meant that Bruce was stuck having to attend. There are two options for this: he either grabs the first costume he sees which is not his suit, and spends the entire day dressed in the Discowing suit Dick had left out, OR he wears the cheapest Spirit Halloween Batman costume available, and is ultimately unmasked during a fight, but of course nobody’s going to take it seriously that Brucie fucking Wayne is Batman, and especially that he’d get the (cheap polyester) cowl pulled off by Condiment King of all people, so people presume it’s a publicity stunt (although #dothebuttsmatch does trend all day). Thankfully, Babs is there, and by the time Bruce logs onto the Batcomputer that night, a photo of the event has already been made the background.

Something I need for a story idea. Cass isn’t someone I know a great deal about. I would love to see other’s opinions. Use cannon or fannon to back up your option. Doesn’t matter to me.

I just want to see if you think she would try to bring him to justice. Join in his mission.

Or would she not directly help him and just leave it to others to fight him. As she is too conflicted?

Batfamily Week 2025 - Planning, Prompts and More

Hi everyone! I am running a Batfamily Week 2025 event. It will be mainly focused on content creation (e.g. fanfics, fanart, and more) based off of prompts, but there will be other ways to participate in the event as well (e.g. sharing of headcanons and ideas). Prompts will be announced late January.

I have never run an event like this before and would love some feedback/suggestions. I have not planned a specific week yet, so letting me know when you are available/what would be most suited to you will be helpful.

This form is for this event, it includes what types prompts you would like included, and when you would like the event to run.

Honestly, I think the scariest Trio in the batfamily has to go to Jason, Cass and Tim.

I mean, Jason and Tim are already a riot and only serve to feed off of each other, which turns a simple drug bust into an arson attack and explosion. But throw Cass into the mix and anyone they come across is fucked.

Tim can create these crazy fucking plans and Jason is insane enough to go along with them while incorporating his own shit (rocket launchers) and Cass just goes with it silently, and when Jason and Tim fuck up and are in a tight spot, Cass is there to get their asses out.

So yeah, when Gothamites see Red Hood, Orphan, and Red Robin together, they pack their shit up because together they are bad shit crazy and unstoppable and Gothamites do not want to get their shit rocked today.

Detective Comics (2016-) #1058

[allthegothihopgirls]

"justice league doesn't know batman has kids" and by some freak incident, they end up meeting them all at once, after never having one single sneaking suspicion of batman being a family guy.

you've got every batkid + justice league member in the same room, and bruce tries for a total of 6 seconds to diffuse the situation before giving up.

there's bats left right and centre making completely false claims about how their family came to be, just to stir shit. also purposely trying to ruin batman's 'stoic and mean' reputation as best as they can.

jason and steph are telling everyone that they're all bio kids, and bruce does try and correct that one (some of those kids don't even belong to him in a non-bio way!!) but not before tim pipes up and goes 'well actually it depends what you count as biological, he grew me in a lab'.

dick's taking full advantage of the JL's perception of batman being oh so impressionable in the moment, and is telling stories of his childhood + batman raising his younger siblings, making him out to be the softest guy to ever exist (completely on purpose). cass is nodding along next to him, and making sure whenever she adds a comment that she uses the word 'dad' instead of batman just for the extra domestic flare.

babs and jason are explaining how they all consider themselves bats, in a way that would make anyone believe that they're in a cult. bruce is standing amidst it all, an immovable object, with dick's arm on his shoulder, and damian huddled into his side (ALL for dramatic flare. they need the JL to know that he's. just a guy with kids).

Dick: No problemo!

Dick, internally: But it was all problemo.

—

Cass: Start talking!

Jason : Well, I-

Cass: Shut up!

—

Tim: So, what's for dinner?

Bruce, staring at the food they burnt: Regret.

—

Jason: What’s up? I’m back.

Bruce: I literally saw you die. You died. You were dead

Jason: Death is a social construct.

—

Damian : If you ever feel stupid or weak or powerless, just remember that I am not. I am out there, very dangerous, and I am looking for you. Good luck.

—

Doctor: How high are you?

Cass: Mm, I don’t know how to say it in feet.

Bruce : No, they’re asking what drugs are you on.

Cass: Oh, antidepressants, why?

Batman is 1000% overshadowed by his kids.

Dick Grayson is better at acrobatics and flexibility. Duh.

Jason Todd is better at brute strength hand-to-hand combat (also he has a fucking gun, so ranged attacks +1, another +1 for not being a pussy and killing people. [PS DC stop nerfing my boy.])

Tim Drake stole the title of World’s Greatest Detective right out from under Bruce, and he would probably be unstoppable if he still had his spleen.

Stephanie Brown is superior at actually being a functioning human being- objectively the most important trait of everyone here.

Cassandra Cain is just better. At what? Everything.

Damian Wayne is better at channeling his trauma and autism into things that aren’t punching mentally ill people (like seriously the kid had to unlearn his LoA brainwashing and look at him go adopting animals instead of traumatized orphans.)

Duke Thomas cAN FUCKING FLY.

Part 4 of the batburger saga

Going back to school but I have the next two parts sketched out so I might still have time to finish em before I drown in schoolwork again.

——————————————

Where do all those burgers go???

Can you tell put all my focus into one panel lol

I also continue to love drawing spoiler and RR shocked faces

——————————————

Phantom: *unhinges his jaw and eats 61 burgers*

Spoiler: ummm that’s new

RR: *heavy sigh* I’ll add it to the file.

Once you realize phantom has powers you also quickly realize he has a lot and he forgets that he has almost all of them. Much to the batfam 1) horror 2)frustration 3) slight amusement. Mostly they’re ripping their hair out.

wayne siblings bonding time!

[bloomeng]

finally got around to redoing Cass

It’s been a journey and a half but from the start I was not super fond of her design but I was just to busy to revisit I know a lot of people had a lot of opinions good and bad but I’m much happier with this version of her

[nerokchi]

if you saw me post this already no you didn't

[goodoldfashionedengineer]

I love it when the batfamily is allowed to age.

And they are still fighting crime.

Part of the whole appeal is how they're just normal ass people without any powers, minus Duke, but still go out there stopping some major crime scheme.

Even better if you compare them to athletes or gymnasts, who retire in their 20's.

Has the batfam ever cared about this? No. So it's not stopping them.

And you know what would be even funnier?

If Bruce would be the last to retire. The one who started it all.
