#babs: fuck you

[spocks-husband]

In Bruce's phone, he keeps the contact photos for all his kids as their baby pictures (or the closest approximation that he has).

Dick's is a photo of him when he'd first designed his Robin costumes, smiling ear to ear as he proudly showed off his first hand-sewn prototype.

Jason's is a picture Alfred got of the boy sitting on Bruce's shoulders while they went over a case.

Tim is him fast asleep in the middle of taking notes on his first real mission (he wanted to impress Bruce really bad).

Damian is a polaroid he got from Talia of him when he was about a year old, teething on a mango seed as he sat on the floor of his mother's room.

Cass is entirely blacked out except for her big bright eyes that can be seen in the darkness-- Bruce thinks it's the cutest photo ever.

Even Babs has hers set to a photo of her with her first computer, grinning happy as she probably hacked into a federal database somewhere. He got that photo from Jim.

Likewise, of course, Alfred's (very bareboned) smartphone that he barely uses has Bruce's contact set with a photo of him playing in the snow as a little boy.

Oracle Specifically, Hate Tucker with the entire fiber of her being. She spent years collecting that data in the batcomputer! And then poof. Gone in an instant because of a stupid virus that put a gorilla in a fortune teller get up holding a eldritch crystal ball with too many teeth that eats every single file she has. The insults, the mocking, teasing! She knew that naming a supercomputer Bat computer is really dumb but you didn't really need to rub it to her face again and again and agin every time she open any kind of electronics! She wasn't even the one who named it that! Get off her back! And how did you even manage to infect a toaster wth a virus?! It keeps insulting her everytime she enter the kitchen!

Meanwhile, Cyborg wants to bang his head to the nearest wall. Anything to stop the constant pop-up ads popping up on his fucking head. No! He doesn't need a new I-phone or where the nearest MILF in his area and he definitely doesn't need pills and gel that enhance his junk! and he definitely doesn't want to hearing Rick and Roll everytime someone is on the verge of saying something importat! Oh god, make it stop!

…tucker may or may not have beef with the two of them.

Despite Danny's best efforts, no matter how much time past, Amity Park refused to see Phantom as a hero.

Sure, there were pockets of support, particularly among teens, but most of the town blames Phantom for the property damage, saying if he didn't fight the ghosts then it wouldn't be so bad, to that time he got mind controlled by Freakshow and "attacked" the mayor. It wears him down. It wears Tucker and Sam down. Jazz can only try to support them all.

Then one day, a member of the Justice League visits. Someone minor, and kinda a jerk... maybe a Wonder Twin? Zan? Whatever. They don't investigate; they don't look deeper. They listen to the town folks and declare the ghost hunters, Red Huntress and the Fentons, to be the official heroes of the town.

Worse? Danny Phantom is officially considered a villain to the Justice League. Tuck hacks into the Watchtower and confirms that they have a file (a heavily inaccurate file) about how to defeat Phantom.

Danny doesn't think he can do this anymore.

A few weeks later, a young villain escapes into Amity and demands (begs) that Danny help them escape from the hero after them. No idea who, I can't find a lot of info on teen villains in DC, so let's fudge some ages and make it Kyd Wyckyd from the Teen Titans cartoon. Danny agrees, because to hell with the Justice Losers, and they defeat the hero, becoming friends in the process. Kyd confesses that they became a villain after being ostracized bc of how they look, and they've been trying to avoid villain organizations because HIVE was abusive, but it's really hard to be a villain alone bc of all the heroes.

Sam gets an idea. Tucker agrees with the idea. Jazz is just happy they'll end up making friends.

The next day, the Teen Villain Alliance is formed, ready to assist with any teenage illegal shenanigans their allies might get into.

Some notes:

It's created to be a healthier option for teen "villains" to connect with others and support each other.

It's more important that this is for Teens rather than Villains. They're tired of adult villains taking advantage of them. The TVA would rather ally with a teen vigilante than with an adult villain.

Again, no idea who the teen villains are, but Klarion is definitely here. He leaves the Light for the chaos of the TVA. Maybe Ember is there too?

Timeline wise, this is around when Tim is still Robin, but Damien has arrived at Wayne Manor.

This is because, when it comes time to try to infiltrate the TVA, they'll have a convenient child-assassin who has none of the monitors of a teen hero that Phantom immediately picks up on.

Damien, who at this point has been abandoned by his mother, dismissed and scolded by his father, and has had no success at carving his own place in the family, jumps at the chance. He is then surrounded by peers who don't insult him or try to change his behavior (too much; jazz is trying to help him find healthier methods of expressing himself). He... might not want to continue being a spy.

Danny, Sam, Tuck, and Jazz are the founding members.

Danny reinvents himself as the High Prince of the Infinite, Prince Phantom Dark. He got kingship from fighting Pariah Dark, but since he's still alive, he's only a prince. He steals the last name Dark as an intimidation tatic against those in the know; only Danny would have the balls to claim family with Pariah.

Sam works as a powerless villain, but she might no be powerless? Either way, Danny gives her a bunch of repurposed Fenton tech, and she buys the rest with her parents credit card. She does NOT care if that's traced back to the Mansons. She would choose something goth, maybe something spider related or even bat?

I love Pharaoh Tucker, so I think he should get magic powers? Since pharaohs of old were considered the balance between the real and the divine. He's still a tech guy, now he's a tech and magic guy.

Jazz isn't really a villain, more of a team mom who's planning on using everyone's psyche's as her thesis paper. You know what, that's her callsign, she's Psyche. Sometimes she flirts with Nightwing.

i think the first time cass gets online enough to unfortunately encounter those people who are like 30 years old and devote their time to writing angry essays for why aang from atla should have killed ozai, is also the first time she asks babs to doxx someone for her. but it will not be the last

[erinwantstowrite]

WAIT GUYS what are all of dick's ships??? i feel like i'm missing a couple

edit: i looked at the shipping wiki and i am disappointed in MOST of you

Naberius is a prick

(chorus of agreement)

Naberius was betrayed, literally stabbed in the back, and murdered for the sake of empowering one of the two people he thought he had to live for

(discomforted muttering)

Nah but snark aside, I think this might be why the "body of Naberius Tern" question has such a profound impact on Ianthe. She's slowly, uncontrollably absorbing the thoughts, feelings, habits, memories, etc. of a man who she dehumanized for their entire shared life and eventually had killed, and she does NOT want to think about it. She does not want to acknowledge the parts of herself that are him, because the idea that he had those parts at all throws an entire life's worth of her own feelings into question. He was a full human being with a full, human perspective on his life. He was murdered for her. Ianthe Naberius is literally being forced to walk in someone else's shoes, and she can barely even tell when it's happening.

How terrifying must that be for someone as self-centered as her?

Stephanie to the Batfam is like a longtime family friend that's so intertwined with each of their lives for so long she's not NOT family.Y'know?She met them through dating a male Batkid but ended marrying a female Batkid after years of best friendship with her and she's basically the youngest Batkid's reluctant babysitter that got stuck with him but after some light tustles he sees her as a big sister and she sees him as a little brother and she knows the eldest Batkid well enough to be on good positive terms with them and call eachother friends even if they don't talk nearly as much due to the massive generational difference and she's buds with the middle child on common ground(Duke)and i know you don't like Jason and Stephanie much less like i do so i'll put him in 'weird older Batkid she finds annoying but tolerates because this ain't her relatives' and she's even close to the other big Batfam family friend(Babs)and bonded with the baby of the bunch's middle schooler romance ahh girlfriend(Maps).Bruce ain't Stephanie's dad but she's not NOT Batfam,y'know?????Idk i'm just spitting since it resonates with me as somebody with multiple non-blood family members i grew up with and i am that too others too and a Stephie kinnie so i wanted to share

im at the point where im so far removed from batfanon batfam that i forget that this isn't the generally accepted/agreed upon batfam

it all revolves around cass to me so yeah. steph's 100% part of the batfam

[bilbo12]

Okay, so...

We've got Sua laughing with a smile and a phone on her hands...

We've got Mizi smiling with a star sticker on her cheek...

We've got Till concentrated as he draws something...

We've got Ivan smiling and with some headphones, probably listening to music...

We've got Hyunwoo riding a bike with his friend...

And we've got Hyuna and Luka dancing and laughing, with two rings in their hands...

This is the life that they could've had if the segyein hadn't invaded the Earth. This is how happy they could've been.

I'M NOT OKAY, PEOPLE! VIVINOS, YOU'RE CRUEL!

I don’t know how to use tumblr but I have ocs, Robins, and Scott Summers to talk about and I’ll be damned if the Big Tumble silences me

Papa Aegon with his little delight Visenya.

Aww this is so cute. We need more of this pleaseeeee.

What about him taking his little delight to the dragon pit to see his sunny delight Sunfyre :)

Can you imagine her being so sweet she takes flowers to the dragon(s).? Or the dragon keepers as thanks for looking after her and her papas dragons.

Cute girl dad Aegon. We need it.

Especially cause you write these scenarios soooooo good. Just perfection :)

-🌸⭐️

Aegon introduces sunfyre to senya when she's a baby, babbling and reaching out for the dragon with grabby hands. of course his beloved daughter would be loved by his dragon as much as he loved her.

he frequently took her on dragon rides, much to alicent's ire. she would toddle after him into the dragon pit, giving flowers to the dragon keepers.

she tries to give flowers to sunfyre but he just keeps eating them.

"silly sunfyre," senya coos at sunyre, patting him softly and sunfyre nudges his head into her cheeks softly, making a soft sound that makes her laugh.

oh this is SICK. SHIVA WHEN I CATCH YOU IT'S ON SIGHT

[necrotic-nephilim]

there is not enough femslash in batcest circles. the girls deserve to be just as weird about each other as the boys are. if BruDick gets to be weird father/son/brothers/lovers/friends/rivals/soulmates then it is only fair that Babs/Cass get to be mother/daughter/sisters/lovers too. Something about that deep intrinsic but undefinable love that is born out of trauma, especially if you consider Cass not knowing what healthy love looks like in the first place. i think it's fun and deserves just as much fandom content.

besides that, you can get even more niche with rarepairs like Helena/Steph. Huntress/Spoiler: Blunt Trauma is already a fantastic comic and even though it's their only real canon interaction it has so much potential. very comparable to TimJay in how Helena tries to get Steph to understand her morals and the corruption you could play with it.

batman: huntress/spoiler: blunt trauma (1998)

that comic also highlights on how both Steph and Helena are outcasts of the Batfamily and don't have the approval of Bruce to be doing what they do in "his city". I think there's so much Potential in Helena taking Steph under her wing because Bruce won't let her in and it becomes a weird codependent toxic sapphic mess. I think the protectiveness Helena feels over Steph from the get-go is so clear and the way she wants to look out for Steph, wants to make sure Steph understands the real world? I love them. Helena should be allowed to steal Steph, actually. I think it'd be fun.

there are a lot of other possibilities too like Babs/Steph or even getting weird with Helena Bertinelli/Helena Wayne and the existential question of "is it selfcest or not." But these two specifically live in my head rent-free, especially Helena/Steph and one day I'll convince everyone else to ship it too.

I don't know if someone asked you this question yet

But what Hogwarts houses do you think the lof cast would be?

i might have some controversial opinions here so i should preface that i prefer the headcanon that the placements at Hogwarts are more decided on what you want rather than what you are. But also some of these are placed on their personalities

refresher for anyone that needs it or for anyone that doesn't know:

"You might belong in Gryffindor, Where dwell the brave at heart, Their daring, nerve, and chivalry Set Gryffindors apart You might belong in Hufflepuff, Where they are just and loyal, Those patient Hufflepuffs are true and unafraid of toil Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw, If you've a ready mind, Where those of wit and learning Will always find their kind Or perhaps in Slytherin You'll make your real friends, Those cunning folk use any means To achieve their ends"

Alfie- Hufflepuff

Bruce- Ravenclaw (curiosity is a big trait of his)

Dick- Gryffindor

Jason- Hufflepuff (i will die on this hill)

Tim- Slytherin (I am not opposed to Ravenclaw... but I feel like it just fits his character better)

Steph- Gryffindor!!!!

Damian- Slytherin

Cass- Ravenclaw

Duke- Gryffindor

Babs- Slytherin

Peter- Hufflepuff

Tony- Ravenclaw

Pepper- Gryffindor

Happy- Hufflepuff

There are others (like Natasha and Steve and them) but I honestly don't know as much about them

Qualities that tipped my decisions:

-All of the Hufflepuff characters could be considered for Gryffindor, but what sets them apart is that even when kind to a bunch of people, they are all people that guard their hearts close and value close bonds. Whereas Gryffindors are the type to jump into caring about people fiercely imo

-I think Dami fits all the houses very well. He's brave, loyal, loves to learn, and he's cunning. Ultimately, Slytherin fits his personality better, and it doesn't diminish his other qualities. You can be a Slytherin with a big heart, and Dami fits that bill for me (FUCK that whole "Slytherin is the evil house" bullshit that really grinds my gears)

-Tim being Slytherin... listen, he's got all of the Ravenclaw qualities. But he takes all of what he learns and he runs with it. He has goals and plans for shit that not even Bruce's level of paranoia can cover. He just so happens to have a big heart as well, in a slightly different way to Dami's

Winged heart au

Wally, open his front door, sees a very out of it Nightwing on his floor: finally decided to sleep like us common folks?

Dick, giggling: no, just high? I think? Are you real? Am I real? Are anyone of us real?

Wally:

Wally: oh no, not an existential crisis on my floor, that's for me to do wondering if I made the right decision and stuff. Why are you here anyways, ain't you heroes have places to go?

Dick: feel safe here, and a pretty man live here, he so pretty like, really pretty,,,, pretty.

Wally, senses DC bs they put Dick through: okay, let's uh, let's get you to bed so whatever you're on can get through your system... God, leave a family of fast healers now babysitting the to be determined human heros,,,, *picks up Dick far to easily* oh that's not good—

Next day

Dick, wakes up worried, frantic, not in his bed:

Wally, sleeping in the chair beside his bed unfortunately uncomfortable:

Dick, noticed everything still on him, nothing different, tries to leave but boy failed:

Wally, looking at Dick on the floor: finally awake Nightwing and was going to leave after I put your high ass to bed.

Dick: sorry...

Wally: save it, you want breakfast? The answer is yes, you're way too light.

Dick: uh thanks... Did we do anything?

Wally: I picked you off my floor, you passed out on the way to my bed, I tucked you in and watched you so you didn't die. Your family broke my other window, again, and my vase my mother picked out, and now you are awake. French toast or waffles?

Dick, shocked he didn't has his autonomy taken from him: um waffles.

Wally: cool, uh you can use my shower if you like, and I have these *sunglasses* Robin says the adhesive for your mask can get irritating soooo yeah, I'll make those waffles. *Leaves*

Dick:

Dick: I'm going to marry him.

Barbara, who bugged Dick so she can keep him safe: dude, the bar is in HELL.

Dick: don't care I'm wifeing him up.

ask meme: 4 for send to all 👀 (replace “dialogue” with “email” probably)

4: What’s your favorite line of dialogue email?

this would probably have to be “guess i’ll die 👍” but i also had a lot of fun coming up with tim’s chaotic email drafts to kon.

it’s funny reading through send to all because there’s so much i just want to tweak and change. a lot of the emails feel just slightly worded wrong, or at least would be funnier if they were worded a little differently. i also wish i could do some of the lists differently. kory should be first on dick’s list, and babs should have told dick to remove her from the list entirely instead of moved from the #1 spot (not that i don’t think babs wouldn’t fuck dick in a sex pollen situation; she absolutely would, but she doesn’t need a form to confirm that).

also side note but i get many comments wishing tim’s list was included in the fic and while i admit that it would be good for narrative symmetry, i purposefully didn’t include it because let’s be real. we already know who is on the list. it’s kon, steph, and bernard (inform of identity? NO.). i did make the list and then put it in the fic during my early drafts, but i felt it just wasn’t funny because tim’s whole deal is that he’s struggling to even find people to include in such a list. so the choices felt so obvious that i think they don’t even need to visually be represented

send me a number + one of my fic titles
