#She appears like batman

[creepyscritches]

People talking about their dogs and cats being able to coordinate w their owners' morning schedules but honestly I've never had a pet so like TUNED IN to my schedule as my fat rat Butter. I start work at 7:30am (I work from home), so between 7:15 - 7:30am I'm washing up, filling my water bottle, and throwing back my meds for the day. Mind you, I keep my meds at my desk in front of the rats, so Butters is usually working through a simultaneous morning routine that syncs up right when I finish taking meds.

It's time. For morning peanut treat. She knows. She's washed her face. Done her morning pees. Drank her body weight in brita water. Stepped on the babies. She's ready.

Unfortunately for her. The babies have also learned I do morning treats and now Mouse also feels the need to come out for her treat rather than taking it in her sleeping spot. The frantic energy in her eyes, thinking today might be the day that I forget HER treat.

Mouse is the slowest eater, so she gets hers first while I paw the babies off her. Then Smeagol, bc she's lightly unhinged. Then Frodo. Then Butters almost always eats hers in my arms. No matter what time I get up on the weekends, we are on the couch w a peanut treat and blankie scampers within 20 minutes like clockwork. She's been sleeping on my lap for 30 minutes.

"My Anatolia" & "My Alexander"

If DC remained truthful to their own canon, and let Talia lied about the miscarriage/abortion instead (like before the retcon, which the author admitted to have misremembered details for iirc), then my OTP since "Batman: The Animated Series", would have not crushed and burn like the city of Alexandria, rendered to ashes and dust that it could never be fully revived in canon.

Based on this panel from Boy Wonder (2024) by Juni Ba.

Headcanon: This is the rose of taif, you cannot convince me otherwise 😭

I love that 9/10 times in Batfam fics if Stephanie Brown isn't a main plot point of the story shes just… side questing. Like, shell appear for a few minutes in a Tim centered fic and then dip because she needs to go collect raw honey for something, or shell pop in during a damian and bruce fic and tell bruce to go fuck himself and that his smoothies taste awful and then fuck off to go drink tequila from a drain pipe, like, she is always doing the craziest shit when its not a steph centered fic, writers will just throw her in doing some random ass side quests and honestly, i love that for her. It is what she would want, i feel like.

Duke's few weeks in the Manor

Damian: So, Thomas, how's the stay in the Manor? Staying with the rest of those juveniles - *sighs* with the rest of the family?

Duke, smiles brightly: It's been great. I like the training sessions and patrols, the movie nights -

Damian: So no regrets, nor second thoughts?

Duke: Of course not-

Tim passes by the room where Damian and Duke are talking.

Tim, furious: I swear to God, Jason!!! I'm burning all your books. Where the fu- where's my bo staff???

Jason: Aren't you supposed to be the smartest among us, Timbers? Find it yourself!!! And why the fuck do people keep blaming me in this house???

in a few seconds, Jason passes by also, one of his guns on his hand. he gives a peace sign to the direction of his youngest brothers, before disappearing from their sights.

Babs: No shouting in the house!!! And put that weapon away, Jason.

Babs passes by next, giving them a sweet smile, before she looks down on the tablet on her lap, loud sounds erupting from it.

Damian, raises his brow: You were saying, Thomas?

Duke: Oh yes. I said I'm not having any-

Steph enters the room with a bag of chips on her hand and some skincare cream on her face.

Steph: WHERE'S MY- Hey, kiddos! Don't mind me just *munches on a chip* 'inding for my lipstick- Oh, there it is!! And no, I'm not giving you any chips. Byeee!!

she leaves the room, loudly munching on her chips.

Damian, the corner of his mouth twitching to a smile: Yes, Thomas?

before Duke could respond, there was a light tap behind him.

Duke: What was that- OH MY GOSH! *touches his chest* Cass....

Cass, giggles, patting Duke's head lightly: Cute. Little brother.

before they know it, she's out the room.

Damian: As you can see-

Dick enters the room, smiling brightly when he sees his little brothers. he stands with his hands on the ground, landing infront of them.

Dick: Aww, what you youngsters up to huh? Up to no good, I bet?

Dick aims for Damian's cheeks. Damian lightly pushes his hands away, so Dick goes for Duke's cheeks, pinching them.

Dick, laughs: I guess I'll do it to the other Little D then.

before Duke can respond, there is a sound of breaking glass and Tim's more shouting.

Dick: Oops. Gotta check that out. You both stay out of trouble.

then Dick leaves them.

Damian, smiles lightly: What do you say Thomas, you want to visit the barn in the backyard?

Duke, grins: I would love that!

Damian: At least you have a normal sibling. I just saved you.

and Duke thinks that Damian is not quite normal, rather unique, with his pet dragon. they're all unique really.

but he wouldn't trade any of his sisters and brothers for anything or anybody in the world.

when i totally inevitably get around to actually writing that coffee shop au i brought up in uhhhhhhh 2020(??) this is definitely the kinda Ivy design vibe she'll have <3

[theerurishipper]

I took upon myself the herculean task of compiling all Dick and Diana interactions.

Batman/Superman: World's Finest #16

Nemesis: The Impostors #3

Nightwing (2016) #100

Titans (2016) Special 1

Titans (2016) Annual 1

Justice League (2011) #51

Wonder Woman (1987) #161

Wonder Woman (1987) #166

Batman/Santa Claus: Silent Knight #4

Nightwing (1996) Annual 2

Some honorary mentions:

These two ones where Diana doesn't interact with Dick one-on-one and is only a part of a larger group, but it's still a good way to show that she respects and trusts him as a leader.

The Brave and The Bold (2007) #15

Justice League: Generation Lost #1

This one where Dick isn't here but Diana shows appreciation for his skills and is very quick to accept that Nightwing should be honored by being in the League (also this isn't about him but I love Clark's "finally, someone easy." That's a proud uncle y'all).

Justice League of America (2006) #2

This one where Diana isn't here but she lets Dick use her Lasso, I think that counts.

Batman/Superman: World's Finest #17

This one where Diana gifted Dick the fastest horse in the world, apparently.

Justice League (2018) #53

These from the 1966 Batman and 1977 Wonder Woman shows' crossover comic.

Batman '66 Meets Wonder Woman '77 #5

Batman '66 Meets Wonder Woman '77 #6

Batman '66 Meets Wonder Woman '77 #10

And then—

Then...

Yeah. That's about it. It's an unfortunately short list. But what little we do have shows that they have a bond of mutual trust and respect for each other. It's very interesting and I wish they explored it more.

new suicide squad anime got me thinking about the genderbend batman au i made when i was 16 again.

extra (nsfw??? body horror + shirtless doodle lol) art under the cut + drabble.

A mysterious actress appears in Gotham!

Production for the long-anticipated remake of the 1930s classic horror film, "The Clay", is saved in part thanks to the audition of one woman with no credits to her name, just a face and demeanor identical of the late leading actress of the original film.

However, the cast and crew have bigger worries than their limited budget and endless demands from their producers -- everyone involved seems to be disappearing one by one!

While the average gothammite worries that the cult classic's "cursed" reputation might be a little more than an urban legend, The Batman refuses to entertain such unfounded silliness and aims to get to the bottom of this crime against cinema!

presenting BATMAN '63 - THE RISE OF CLAYFACE coming not actually ever lmao

(her hair is brown now because I like the idea of her appearance never being fully consistent lol. shapeshifters gotta do their thing)

[swingsetindecember]

parker and jason todd could have been siblings

Hey question is Calculator a WFA only villain or from the comics?

From what I found, he is the same as the Calculator who was created in the 70s. He was introduced in the extra story of Detective Comics 463 which was actually mainly focused on the Atom, although it featured a variety of heroes including Green Arrow, Elongated Man, and the Caped Crusader himself. He was created by Bob Rosakis and Mike Grell. Basically his whole schtick was that he had a suit that allowed him to "calculate" the moves of heroes and defeat them using hard-light constructs generated from a little projector on his head.

He returned in the Birds of Prey 2010-2011 run by Gail Simone, Marc Andreyko, and Ardian Syaf. I'm pretty sure it was particularly in the 'Death of Oracle' arc, as he is the main antagonist of that event, but don't quote me on that. It's here that he becomes the "Anti-Oracle" and causes the arc, growing closer and closer to discovering her identity as she buries herself further into hiding. I don't think the hard-light constructs are present here at all, I'm pretty sure he's just a really good hacker now but again I've not read it, so take that with a grain of salt. He's not exactly what I'd call "obscure" as he has appeared across different medias, but he's a relatively deep cut to include in the story nonetheless and I like the choice to take someone so specific for Babs' arc as opposed to just covering the paralysis trauma or using her brother or something.

i really wanted lynx to kill king snake in war of the dragons

redesigned her look a little:

notes + ref below

alt:

i adapted the dialogue from 'tec #685

i thought lynx's outfit was boring here though and adapted the outfit from her earlier appearances (modified the leotard but kept the short hair. what's up with leotards in 90's comics??)

she also doesn't actually have a push dagger, but that was the only thing i could think of to make the panel work

i also used photos of current UFC strawweight division champion weili zhang as refs bc i wanted lynx to have that mma fighter build (i should also note that i don't believe king snake should have abs but he doesn't deserve a character sheet)

@deepwithintheabyss requested a panel redraw of the panels below, from DC vs Vampires, and this is not that lol -- but i did use them as refs!

[navree]

i need pepe larraz to draw for doctor strange more because this is the hottest clea has looked, on god

[bruciemilf]

By the by in case you're curious, the Batman/Catwoman wedding almost happened in Batman (Volume 3) #50. Apparently Selina left Bruce at the altar for completely bullshit reasons. I haven't read the story myself, but apparently Bane talked Selina into leaving him...? But that's DC for you! Can't let Bruce be happy and get married like Superman! Nope! Not at all! It's a decision that I quite dislike, but DC had better not go back on it now. They made their bed, now they should have to lie in it.

Also bold of you to assume that you would need Bruce to be female for Two-Face to be running around and bragging about how awesome his wife is. I can see Two-Face as being the kind of guy who doesn't give two shits about gender and calls Bruce his 'wife' purely for the shits and giggles. Yes, Bruce is his wife. So what if he's a man? You're really going to tell this famously violent kingpin that he can't call his billionaire malewife whatever he wants!?

Two-Face: Hey! Everyone! Check out how awesome my brand new wife is! Bruce: ... Wife...? Two-Face: Yeah? Harvey didn't let me brag about the last one, so neither of you are stopping me now!

OH TRUST, I know he wouldn't care, it's for that AU specifically sjsjs but I so agree. One of the most delicious tropes for me in terms of twoharvs, is that Harvey's repressed. Two Face isn't.

I've seen Gilda before, and honestly no shade to anyone who likes her, but her and Harvey having a cringefail marriage is so funny to me.

Especially if Two Face did not care sjsj "does it say my name on the marriage certificate? No? Then shut up!" Harvey mainly married Gilda because she needed him, and on some grounds, he needed her, but Two-Face WANTS Bruce.

That's how my Bruharvey rose colored glasses choose to see it, anyway shsh

Plus. It is really fucking funny to imagine Bruce, head buried in his pillow, sobbing, kicking his feet, stomping his fists in the mattress because his boy best friend is getting married.

Alfred watches helplessly and Dori yells out, " You should've been a SLUT!"

[hood-ex]

Hang on a damn minute. You're telling me Jason is back on his killing game now? That he's looking to kill Joker? And that he's open to death threats? Wow. Wow. Jason damn Todd. Thanks for the whiplash, asshole. And for the laugh because ngl this did make me cackle:

Batman/Catwoman: The Gotham War: Red Hood

[psychicbluebirdmiracle]

Ok I saw a post a while ago about how badly all the characters in titans just don't know Jason despite thinking they do and was just like "huh I don't see that but maybe it's just a few things in the last two seasons" but oh my gosh season 3 episode 1 and it's so frustrating already "why would jason be studying chemistry he couldn't read the back of a cereal box" "jason was impulsive" "it's all Jason's fault he could never learn" what the heck guys are we thinking about the same character right now????

[chiropterx]

Honestly, Man-Bat would be such a horrifying creature to stumble across in Gotham? At 8'6, he is HUGE, strong enough to carry off a man in his claws while barely slowing down. He might lack the same intelligence he had as Kirk Langstrom but Man-Bat still has keen problem-solving intellect such as picking up an entire wooden desk and throwing it at Batman to hold him in place long enough for an easy bite to the throat. It's that uncanny area between what was once human vs. a hyperpredator making Man-Bat one of the most dangerous creatures to cross whether he's simply hungry enough or has developed a grudge against you for some reason. You can't outrun him and there aren't many places you can hide because not only can he fly, he's able to squeeze into places you yourself would be able to fit into.

self care is blocking the (hopefully????) clueless people in the tag who've drawn their "I really love both these characters" ships dressing up as Harley Quinn and her abuser for Halloween.
