#Quiet Bat

[jasonsthunderthighs]

Roy Harper: Poison is actually a magical transmutation potion that transforms people into corpses.

Cassandra Cain: This knife is a Magick wand.

John Constantine: Meet me in the Denny's parkin lot for a wizard duel.

Jason Todd: *Cocks gun* Magick missile.

Bruce: How was your class trip Damian?

Damian: It was quiet and productive Father.

Bruce: I’m glad to hear it. What was your favorite part?

Damian: I learned how to escape an Iron Maiden.

Bruce: …

Damian: …

Bruce: Explain please.

Damian: A boy Drake’s age taught me how to escape an Iron Maiden.

Bruce: How did he have that knowledge?

Damian: He claims his family has a dungeon full of medieval torture devices. I believe he may require further investigation.

Oh hey, DP x DC idea

Of which GIW has somehow captured the Joker due to him showing up in their radar. And Danny as Phantom, breaking into GIW thresholds to break out ghosts who were captured and/or experimented by them around Amity Park.

Phantom meeting Joker, ofc.

See, my brain insists that Amity Park is quite isolated in the US due to GIW interferences. So if Amity Park gets news of OMG METROPOLIS IS UNDER ATTACK, or GOTHAM IS HAVING DISASTER, they'd thought of those as fake.

So Phantom has absolutely no clue who Joker even is. He rescued the Very Weird ghost like he does the other ghosts.

And y'all get to continue it 😆

~ after the Sun went down, but not that late ~

*every radio/tv/anything Barbara can hack into to send a live message suddenly stops whatever they were playing, on every monitor a green, feminine looking face appears*

Oracle: Good evening Gotham, I have interrupted the usual programs to pass on an important message from Batman.

Due to an unfortunate magical incident most of his children have been turned into their most unhinged selves and they are currently running loose in Gotham.

Red Hood is under the influence of a mind altering magic, that makes him unstable and aggressive. Remember the duffle bag incident? Worse than that. Do not, under any circumstances, approach him. If you see him, run!

Robin is a little bit younger than he’s supposed to be, he looks very cute, but he will slay you with a katana, if he feels it is warranted. He feels it is warranted a lot of time. Can be deterred by animals. Especially, if the animal in question is in danger. Do not endanger animals, if you want to live.

Spoiler has a point to prove and is not afraid to use glitter, cooking utensils or any random object she finds as a weapon. Let her be, if you’re not one of the worst kind of criminals, you’re relatively safe, property damage will be covered by the Bat Insurance.

Cardinal {A/N: Red Robin is a stupid name, this is a hill I’ll die on} is at the beginning of his Robin run, I hope we all remember what that means. Let’s pray we don’t have any tanks lying around Gotham this time. Or any weapons of mass destruction. Ask him very specific questions and let him rant for as long as he’s able.

Black Bat is yet to be located, she could be anywhere. And I mean anywhere.

And yes, Nightwing is in fact nine years old. You might be able to bribe him with cookies into a less feral state, but then there’s a possibility that you’ll have to deal with a sugar high Baby Robin.

Batman himself isn’t available at the moment and won’t be for about two more hours. Criminals are free to stay home or return to Arkham Asylum slash Black Gate.

Stay sane.

Oracle out.

What if Cassandra Cain unintentionally sneaking up on people and their reactions personally affected her more then she let on?

Cass: Hi Tim.

Tim Drake yelped, dropping his coffee cup.

Tim: God! Can you give a heads up instead of sneaking up on people?

Cass (confused): I said hi when I was close to you. I wanted to ask if you wanted to go half on a pizza?

Tim: Sure, but next time give a warning.

Cass: Hm... Noted.

Cass walked dejected away as Tim picked up his coffee cup. He looked over where she was before to apologize, but saw she had already left, reasoning that she wasn't upset by his reaction.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Cass: Hi Stephanie.

Stephanie jolted turning around. Barbara laughed, shaking her head.

Barbara: She got you again. Hey Cass.

Cass (confused): Huh?

Stephanie (to Cass): Hey girl, geez you are good at that.

Cass: Good at what?

Stephanie: Popping up out of nowhere. It helps with crime fighting, but we've got to put a bell on you.

Stephanie and Barbara laughing only confused Cass further.

Cass (tilting her head): I was not aware that I... Startled people. I'm sorry.

Stephanie: Cass it's fine, we're just messing with you.

Barbara: It's how you are.

Cass: Oh, all the time?

Barbara and Stephanie nodded. Cass rung her hands together, burying how she felt but quickly forced a smile.

Cass: Hm... Noted. Let's go see the movie.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Cass: Hi Dick.

Dick screamed, jumping into Jason's arms.

Jason: Why is this your automatic reaction?

Jason dropped his brother.

Dick: Ow, she's really quiet and it catches me off guard!

Cass (confused and saddened): I'm sorry... I wasn't intending to do that. Again.

Jason (not upset): It's fine.

Dick: Just give a warning next time! Wear a bell- Ow!

Jason kicked Dick in the leg for that comment.

Jason: Calm down, you're acting like you saw a giant rat.

Dick (standing up): Whatever, sorry Cass, I swear it's like you're a ghost and appear out of nowhere.

Cass (surprised and upset): Oh.

Jason glared at Dick with his arms crossed.

Dick: I feel like I said the wrong thing.

Cass (hiding her true feelings): It's okay, I'm... Used to it.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Cass made her footsteps noticeably louder, as if she were in heavy boots while walking over to Damian.

Cass (tapping the young boy on the shoulder): Hi Damian.

Damian jolted lightly, dropping his sketch pencil.

Damian (apologetic): Sorry, my reaction wasn't overreactive. I'm trying to finish this sketch for art class I get into the zone- What's wrong, you look sad?

Cass (dejected): It's nothing, I'm the one sorry for startling you. Just wanted to tell you that Jason and Steph switched for who would be with who, me and Jason and you with Steph tonight.

Damian: Great I had to get the blabber mouth, thank you for telling me either way. Um, but are you sure you're okay? I wasn't upset about you sneaking up on me I get really into my art and-

Cass (thrown off by the comment): You too? I wasn't intending to sneak up on you, startled you or anyone. I swear.

Damian: Oh, you usually do it with everyone. My mistake.

Cass nods, hiding her true reaction and leaves silently. Damian shrugs and returns to his drawing.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Later that night, Cass in her Batgirl Orphan suit met up with Jason as he waited for her in his Red Hood suit.

Cass (somber as she walked over to Jason): Hi Jason.

Jason turned to face Cass and he smiled at her.

Jason: Hey, it's good to see you. You ready to patrol?

Cass: You're not... Upset I snuck up on you?

Jason: Nah, you're good at it and I like how you greet everyone. I can't be upset at you anyway, I tolerate you the most.

Jason patted Cass on the shoulder. Cass sniffled, wringing her hands together.

Jason (concerned): What's wrong?

Cass: I don't mean to scare people when I'm behind them or unnoticed. My dad always taught me to be silent when you kill your target... they'll never notice you, but I don't want to do that to any of you. It means that you think I'll hurt you. I'm not doing what I do on purpose or as a trick I-

Jason: Cass, it's fine. Come here.

Jason hugged Cass. Cass hugged him back, happy he wasn't against hugging her like he is with everyone else.

Jason (patting Cass on the back then pulling away): I know you're not an evil ninja or whatever your dipshit birth father wanted you to be. You're... Cassandra. You're sweet and awesome. Most of them are the type to fall out of a chair when someone's phone rings too loudly, especially Dick and Tim, so don't let what they say upset you.

Cass: When I scare you guys it makes me feel like a freak, like my father and mother were right.

Jason (reassuringly): They weren't, I promise you that. When you're "sneaking" up on people it's fine. I do the same thing. We're the type of people who can make an entrance and escape easily when we don't want to be with other people.

Cass laughs.

Cass: That's true.

Jason: I don't want you to ever think that you'll turn into some psychopath because you're not that Cass... You're family. And yes, I do mean that.

Cass: Um, thank you, Jason. I appreciate you being so nice to me about this. I needed that because while I can be a tough bad ass crime fighter... I don't want my family to fear me.

Jason (sympathetically): I get that, but we all love you and I could never imagine you hurting any of us.

Cass (smirking): I thought you tolerated me the most?

Jason: Eh, I love you too. Now are you ready for a night of beating the shit out of bad guys?

Cass (taking a power pose): I am!

Jason and Cass ran off together, ready to fight. Jason wasn't ready to admit it, but he shared the same concerns of harming others like Cass did, and continued to struggle with on him snapping one day, but he saw the good in Cass and he'd remind her of the good person she is. He loves his foster sister for her good heart even with all the hell she went through and he'd be there for her.

This drives me up a WALL. Jason just says the quiet part out loud and no one corrects him. Like... this takes place during the Ric arc, Dick has AMNESIA, and they basically kicked him out of the family for it! You can argue that everyone, especially Jason, is emotionally volatile bc of how they just lost Alfred and are grieving, but Dick seriously doesn't deserve to be treated like this.

Actually, how many times has he been kicked out of the family, or rejected/treated like an outsider by them?? From what i can remember, Dick was: fired from Robin twice, ran away at least twice, kicked out of the manor twice, was treated like shit during the entire n52 especially during Spyral, then the Ric arc where he was kicked out AGAIN, not to mention the many times he's been left uninformed (Jasons adoption, becoming Robin, then death and funeral, not being told about the Harold Allnut guy moving into the batcave, not knowing Bruce tried to adopt Tim, there's probably more examples lbr).

Like, Jesus, no wonder Dick doesn't seem to think his place in the family is guaranteed. Because it kinda isn't?? Idk for being the supposed 'golden boy' he's really not treated like it

[bigkickguy]

Limbus is interesting I keep thinking of how all of them live on the bus together? It must really suck hearing people so close to you be upset at night.

[ratatatastic]

Who is the best and who is the worst to sit next to on the plane?

no one could agree who unanimously is the best insisting their seatmate, previous or otherwise, was (ekky→benny, benny→reino, sasha⇆bobby, swaggy→forsy, luosty→mikksy)

but the worst? with a whopping two votes against him (benny, swaggy) is ekky because hes loud and forces guys into joining the poker table 😭😭😭

special mention forsy and mikksy copping out of the question like theyre carebear incarnates and going everyone is the best :)

When it comes to Cass and language I like to think that even though she eventually learned how to speak and write and has to use it on a daily basis that is obviously not her preferred method of communication. Cass only had to start grappling with the concept of verbal language at 17 and so she’d developed her own kind of communication, esp w the people she’s most comfortable with she’d use a mix of gestures, facial expressions, body language and simple words; things that she’s most used to and could use to express herself more freely.

Her friends and family having to deal with her being mostly non-verbal would also force them to get better at interpreting and using facial expressions and body language to express themselves, also making it easier for Cass to understand them back.

[the-owl-tree]

So is Appledusk cheating worse than Mapleshade being a murder

please don’t put words in my mouth, i’m saying being a male character in warrior cats is worse than being a murderer

[trekkele]

anyways yeah Gotham trusts the bat because he wont kill you and he’ll go out of his way not to kill you, because he’s proven time and time again that he understands and actually believes that one good chance can stop someone from turning to crime again. Gotham has no reason to believe that a guy who showed up to violently and bloodily take over the crime scene, with multiple deaths and a serial killers old name as his shtick, means the best for them. Mostly because he didnt, at that point, he was trying to make a rhetorical point. Thats the difference.

[nevesmose]

I think the best way to explain why I like the Night Lords is like this. There's an old joke where someone asks John Lennon at the height of Beatlemania if, since they're the world's most famous band, does that mean Ringo Starr is the best drummer in the world?

And John Lennon says, "Ringo Starr isn't even the best drummer in the Beatles."

Good joke. Everybody laugh.

On paper they're a legion of stealthy goth space vampires. Fantastic.

But trying to be stealthy and goth compared to the Raven Guard or space vampires at the same time as the Blood Angels is just unfortunate. Or, as Konrad says to the homemade meat-Emperor statue in his primarch book:

Imagine what I could have done had you given the same gifts to me? How much more perfect a monster I would have been had the shadows loved me as much as they loved Corax!

I know this is why some people dislike Konrad and the Quiet Bat People generally. Fair enough. But for me, the psychological damage from the insurmountable gap between what they think they are and what they actually are is one of their most entertainingly tragic aspects. Even an absolute chad like Sevatar can't seem to escape it.

Like it says in ADB's trilogy, they wanted to be heroes and look how that turned out.

[tim-drake-scholar]

not to be controversial but i think Dick Grayson, Nightwing, the first Robin, should always be portrayed with long shaggy hair that is shorter in the front and longer in the back, and hair that curls when its long enough to reach the nape of his neck and brush against his shoulders
