Apparently, a girl from my uni class was trying to flirt with me (a friend pointed it out later) and me what was on my heart locked necklace. I opened it, showing a picture of my boyfriend and I kissing.

She stopped speaking to me real quick.

“they were flirting with you” and how was i supposed to know such a thing when everyone speaks in codes and puzzles

Okok but what if Nika (again) BUT long(er) hair and some racoon tails.

On a completely unrelated note, Im a firm believer she enjoys Paramore. I know canonically she listens to k-pop which I love but I don't know anything about k-pop besides some popular songs here and there.

I might be back with more later (she's constantly rotating on my head) but for now good night. This is me btw.

Oh boy here we go

I love seeing people’s picrew art styles because you can just look at them and be like

“You read homestuck and it was a big part of your life for a few years, you’re not into steven universe but you did watch it, and you had an intense black butler phase in middle school and doodled their eyes over and over again in your spiral notebooks”

(kinda) Scene Nika my beloved

Hi!

Could you make a stim board Batman (from Batman: the animated series) themed? Totally ok if you'll rather not.

Gifs could possibly be black, blue or yellow, night themed, bat themed,include shinny metal gadgets (like batarangs and alike) and/or anything else you feel comfortable including. Thanks for reading, your boards are really cool.

Thank you! And I hope you enjoy!

This is an extremely self indulgent idea BUT

Nonbinary transfem (they/she) Damian x nonbinary transmasc (they/he/she) Nika

Let me be happy. No, this is not because Nika it's kinda tomboy-ish, it's because Im trans and I like them and I hit them with the ✨ transification ✨ beam. Also bc I feel it would be a very interesting perspective of their lives and their stories of finding their own path + separating themselves from the shadow of their parents.

Something something death and resurrection something something learning you're not inherently evil for making mistakes something something learning to live.

Nika being more open about it, having more time to explore their own identity, helping Damian as well trying out new things.

I might or might not draw something about it.

Jason Todd as a Trans (ftm) allegory

Written by me, a trans man

[this edit was made by me, original picture it's Dan Mora's sketch]

TW gender disphoria, (implied) transphobia.

Im not saying his story was written with this perspective in mind, Im saying *death of the author (*the reinterpretation of artistic creations by the public both as a community and aa individuals, and how this goes far beyond the creator's original message on mind) is a very real thing.

This narrative resonated with me, a trans man, and my experience as such. Maybe out there is another transmasc person who caught themselves invested in this character the same way as I, and maybe they'll read this post and be happy to found out they're not alone on these feelings.

Without further addue, let's begin.

The second Robin, and the feeling of not fitting

Every trans person first memory of perceiving oneself as somehow different (and how) it's particular to each.

Some realize pretty young, some older. Some always have this lingering feeling of not belonging but become conscious of it later in life.

This feeling its present trough all of Jason's life. First, when he first arrives at the Manor. Later, when he starts operating as Robin. Then when Tim "replaces him", and so on.

Usually labelled as the black lamb of the family.

Tragedy is always, first, born off love

Jason's death and resurrection is written as a tragedy (no shit, Sherlock). But there, to be a tragedy, there has to be hope first. There has to be love.

Now, this varies from version to version, but a general consence is that Jason Todd was loved by Bruce Wayne, regardless of how much their relationship might change and twist on the future; Jason Todd was a good kid, regardless of how he might be portrayed as recless. He was a traumatized, angry kid who wanted to make things better. Who wished for bad guys to not hurt people anymore. Who wished to change the system for better, and took the matter on his own hands both as a child and as a young adult.

This

This right here

Was a loved, brave, bold, sensitive, mischievous, smart child who would latter come back like this:

Demanding justice, demanding damnation for al the pain he went through, demanding retaliation to the monster that set him off this world.

And all these requests fell to the ears of Bruce Wayne, Batman. The man who took him in as a scared, bold litte child that beated him in the cold of the night in the alley where his parents died. He stole his car tires, he's a child and he stole his car tires and he made Batman laugh.

That Perception doesn't change with his rise from the dead.

What changes is Bruce's view of him now.

Now, this depends on the writer, but on the start of Jason's "coming back to Gotham to fight Bruce" arc, there is the accusation of him coming back wrong.

Of him being better before

Of something being wrong with him since the start.

The implications of his physical change as wrong in comparation to his younger self.

I find Jason's body dismorphia due to The Lazarus Pit™ very interesting,but in this case Im not referring to it as a comparation with body disphoria (even through, he does get the feeling of your body changing in ways out of your control and the trauma that surrounds it).

Im talking about Bruce's view on all of this.

Luckily, if you're trans and had supportive parents, you won't know these things by first hand experience, but many, many people do.

And Jason gets it.

Jason Todd its womanhood™ coded

This is, partially, one of th main reasons why his fanbase consists on a large part of fangirls.

Repressed rage upon the injustices you go through all your life, and once the last drop falls, said rage is weaponized. Seen as dirty, as over the top, as dangerous.

Your older self being compared to your younger self, being asked (directly or indirectly) where that sweet child™ went.

Being striped away from your body autonomy (murder, torture, resurrection against his will, whatever is going on in Batman Gotham War).

Being labeled as the most sensitive. Sometimes in a good light, sometimes not.

The burning weight of still loving parental figures that hurted you.

Topping it all, it's implied through many instances he's a feminist (yes, Im aware this is also heavily influenced by fanon interpretations of the character, but you can't deny it's still heavily implied).

All of these issues almost universal (however not exclusive) to AFAB people life experience.

There is this recognition in these wounds. "He gets it", you feel, he gets it.

He gets it in a similar way transmasc individual have an undeniable insight of these issues. He gets it in a way that feels genuine, familiar, personal.

Lastly but nor least important,

He gives me gender™ vibes. That's it, that's the argument

Over all, Jason Todd its a multifaceted, complex character. He's morally grey, his temperament ranging and mutating with each reinterpretation. Some core issues stick, others don't.

I do not hold the one and only right interpretation of this character.

We can al agree, nevertheless, that even through he's not canonically trans,

Jason todd would be a great trans ally, fighting by our side, in name of our rights, our pain but also our pride.

For that's what heroes do.

I've started listening to Epic the musical and NOTHING COULD HAVE PREPARED ME for this song, Im telling you.

It pretty much felt like this:

the underworld in a nutshell

Hear me out

Daminika as bats

Vampire bat Damian

Hondurian white bat Nika

(but for aesthetic reasons her nose and ears are pink/purple-ish colored)

Batman & Robin #8 spoilers bellow!!! Skip if you don't wanna see :^]

Okay we're good

HER SPOOKY DOLL EYES

You don't understand, she's my child.

It almost made me forget about Damian's white washing, I love her so much.

Okay, back to the story.

["you'd do the same if it was a member of your batfamily"]

Uuuuh about that.

Like I GET where she's coming from and Damian for sure stands up for his family, but he sure as hell also has beaten their asses when they screw up (sometimes when they don't as well but y'know).

He did the cape thing guys.

I honestly saw this coming, but Im not mad that I did. It makes sense.

I really didn't saw Nika suddenly joining her sister on the family business, let alone with all the baggage between them. I know she's technically a morally good/grey-ish character but in this case her "betrayal" actually being one wouldn't fit her interests.

Me when Nika tries to protect Mila and get her out of a bad place while simultaneously beating her ass as she should and Damian even through still not enjoying the events understands her position and quickly gets over it

Also

who's gonna tell her?

Im still not over this

Damian, darling, you're asking this from Flatline, who's idea of inconspicuous is this pic

Aaaaand of course they're gonna try to take down Shush on their own.

This can go wrong in so many ways and Im so ready for it.

Anyways, had fun reading this. Can't wait for next issue !

Anyways here's another Nika's doodle
