So i'm a historian, i have a BA in music history/history, in my last semester of a history MA, and am pursuing a PhD. i work in archives, collections, and curatorial, and i really want to include what it actually means to be a billionaire like the Waynes in my work- which is really about class discrimination and poverty tbh

for example: these people buy antiques owned by Marie Antoinette and jewels worn by the Romanovs before they were executed

these people wear diamonds mined by enslaved people in the 18th century bought at auction for hundreds of thousands if not millions of dollars

these people have mahogany bookcases, desks, and clocks logged by enslaved people in Jamaica who were regularly killed both by the practice of logging and by enslavers

Most malachite decorative arts were mined by serfs in Russia until the abolishment

these people have works by Fabergé, Boucheron, Berthoud, Lépine and i promise, not a single one of the materials were sourced without sacrifice

and no matter how much charity wealthy people do, the fact that they're still billionaire and still purchase these things paying indiscriminate amounts of money is kinda the core of my fic

Jason had a weird month. He got a new pet after it flew into his window, and got quite attatched to the little bat. He named it Spooky since it was snow white and scared the piss out of Bruce whenever he tried to visit. Spooky was weird, way too friendly and used to people to be wild, so maybe an escaped pet? Not that any of that matteted when Damian returned from training with the Titans and demanded to meet Spooky. Jason might not know anything about pets, but Damian immediatly knew this thing wasn't a normal bat.

Meanwhile Danny was nervous. His training with Amorpho had taught him how to shapeshift, only having trouble getting the colors right. After running from the GIW and ending up in Gotham he figured no one would look twice at a bat. But he was so tired he flew right into a window! Jason was nice though. Hopefully Robin won't figure him out before he finished clearing al that rotten ecto out of Jason first!

:0 oh this is positively adorable.

Jason hasn’t researched bat behavior too closely but Damian sees that Spooky is very excited for social interaction and pets and just knows that something is off with this lil guy.

Batfamily Beauty and the Beast AU where Bruce is the beast and with every child he adopts he becomes slightly more and more human.

He finds Dick in the woods, sobbing over the loss of his parents. A year later, he looks in the mirror and wonders if he's only imagining that he's gotten shorter.

Jason sneaks into the castle and steals a loaf of bread, hungry and desperate. Bruce takes him in and offers him a proper meal. As he's putting his new son to bed one night, he notices that his claws have shrunk.

Tim marches into the castle and demands Bruce take him, knowing the stories of the monster who kidnaps children. Bruce's snout feels flatter than it used to when he presses a kiss to his forehead.

Cassandra lasts a full two weeks before anyone even notices she's there. The fur on Bruce's arms begins to thin as he holds her close, and she smiles up at him.

Tim brings home Stephanie, who loudly insists that she does not need nor want a new father. His skin grows less leathery, and the beginnings of crows feet appear on the corners of his eyes.

Damian is brought to them by Talia, rigid and wary of everything, convinced of his birthright as the Bat's heir. The fangs in Bruce's mouth seem to smooth over as he learns to gentle his speech.

The day Duke joins the family, still reeling from the plague that claimed his parents, something clicks. Bruce steps out, and before them stands a perfectly human man, finally made whole by his love for his children.

he’s probably trying to get them all to come snuggle…he doesn’t care if he can’t fit them all under his wings

If chaos was personified I think it would be Damian. Tiny child filled with rage and equipped with far too many weapons.

I've been meaning to apply the doom morph into Biolizard Shadow's black arms form. Unfortunately it comes from Shadow when Black doom attempts to takeover his mind and body (and at this point in the au Shadow's having a major identity crisis so his mental state is preeeetty much in the dumps). The attempt goes wrong and Shadow fully loses control of his powers/body
