“It is not at all clear that Jane Seymour was the bait carefully prepared by an alleged conservative faction. It is more likely that Henry met her when on progress in Hampshire. Maybe once the king’s interest in her was known, courtiers then attempted to exploit the situation, but more for reasons of patronage than policy. It may simply be that Henry entrusted Carew, as a loyal and long-serving courtier, with the responsibility of looking after Jane as she was becoming the king’s mistress. After Anne’s fall, Jane would be lodged at Carew’s house at Beddington. Maybe Carew had already earlier seized the opportunity to encourage Jane to criticise Anne, as Chapuys reported at the beginning of April; or perhaps Carew, whatever he actually did or did not do, boasted to Chapuys that he was coaching Jane to do down Anne, but we should be cautious about believing him. For Jane to tell Henry that Anne was abominated and that his marriage was thought illegitimate would be highly risky. Only someone absolutely certain that the king had already decided to repudiate Anne could confidently say that to him. Yet as late as 18 April Henry was insisting that Chapuys should publicly recognise Anne Boleyn. If Jane Seymour had spoken the words at the end of March that Chapuys says she was being coached to speak, it is likely that the king would have given her short shrift. A few days after Anne’s execution Chapuys reported that Jane had suggested to the king that Princess Mary should be restored to her former position: Henry had called her a fool and said that she should look rather to the advancement of their children. How credible is that report? Chapuys could not have overheard any such remarks. Perhaps Jane told Carew what she had told the king—though the king’s riposte would hardly have comforted the conservatives. Perhaps it was the king who let the story slip with the aim of putting further pressure, through Chapuys, on Princess Mary.”

more timkon.. more timkon i beg.. or timberkon... either one.. pls and thank you..

i just can not stand these guys (lying)

[t2316m]

Cass is face blind, not like oh she’s bad at remembering faces but in an actual cannot for the life of her know who she’s looking at kinda way. Instead of faces she uses context clues, body language, and voices to tell who she’s interacting with. She’s gotten pretty good at it each of her family members having an obvious tell that it’s them. Some of them include how Dick always has blue incorporated into his outfit. Jason always smells slightly of gun powder and cigarettes. Tim’s posture is so bad Cass can tell it’s him from a mile away. Damian has green eyes, Steph has blonde hair, Babs has red hair. Cass wishes all the boys had different colored hair, as it would simply make her life a lot easier.

The face blindness really doesn’t impare her abilities during patrol cause all of the Gotham rogues and heroes wear such dramatic outfits Cass doesn’t need to see their face to know who they are.

Unfortunately problems often arise when she’s in civilian form,

Cass: *at starbucks*

Dick: oh my god Cass! is that you?

Cass: *confused but polite* hello.

Dick: hey, how’s your day been?

Cass: *is unsure why this random guy is talking to her but once again polite* good.

Dick: *confused on why his sister is acting weird*...that’s good.

Cass: *grabbing her order and attempting to leave.*

Dick: Wait don’t you want a ride back to the manor?

Cass: No. *rushing away and is very uncomfortable.*

Cass: *halfway down the street, realizing she’s heard that voice before, immediately pulling out her phone*

Dick: Hello?

Cass: Starbucks?

Dick: Yea..

——

Jason: *recently dyed his white streak black cause he was feeling insecure about it*

Cass: *stands next to no streak Jason sitting at the batcomputer* Bruce?

Jason: I beg your finest pardon

Cass: Oh, Hi Jason.

Jason: *on his way to bleach his streak back cause never again.*

——

Bruce: *brings Clark to the manor, they’re both in civilian clothing looking identical.*

Cass: No metas, too confusing.

Cass: *staring directly at Bruce thinking it’s Clark* I. Don’t. Like. You.

Bruce: *has not been this heartbroken since Khoa Khan.* Clark, I think it’s best for you to leave

——

Cass: *staring at the blonde person in the kitchen thinking it’s Steph* oh wow your hair..

Bernard: *also face blind.* Tim…You sound different.

[hobiiiebrown]

lol

[gnomewithalaptop]

Okay, I get what Tim sees in him now actually. They're both convinced they're the normal one, and somehow they're both wrong

[ghost-bxrd]

Prompt:

Instead of going for Tim, Jason goes for the easiest way to utterly destroy his Replacement and kidnaps his civilian boyfriend to demonstrate just how easy it is to lose something (or someone) you love in this line of work.

And while the whole “make the Replacement beg” part of the plan is going amazing…. Jason really didn’t plan the whole “keeping a conspiracy theorist teenager hostage” through to the end.

Bernard just wants to know what the new crime lord’s deal with Robin is. And why— and how— exactly he’s supposed to be a bargaining chip when he can count the times he met Robin on one hand. oh! and could someone maybe tell his boyfriend, Tim, that he’ll be late for their coffee date on Tuesday?

“Her brother Edward Seymour, the future Protector Somerset in the reign of Jane’s son Edward, seems a somewhat unlikely ‘conservative’, even in the mid-1530s. If these conservatives were really dangling Jane in front of the king, could they be sure that she, and her family, would be their allies? Were there no young ladies from the families of those named by Chapuys? And how sound a scheme was it? How confident could Sir Nicholas Carew be first that Henry would be interested in Jane Seymour and secondly that if Jane became Henry’s mistress, that would lead on to political advantages for the conservatives, especially the downfall of Anne Boleyn?”

I know that people love to headcanon Tim as a child of Athena, I personally like to headcanon him as child of Hades due to his similarities with Nico and the fact that dead seems to follow that kid like a motherfucker but never actually reach HIM.

But hear me out.

Tim as a child of Dionysus. And he gets claimed during the Bruce-quest.

When he was in Gotham monsters were a usual thing. You never knew that they were there for your godly blood, you just thought that they were things created by pollution or something like that. And when he became Robin fighting things that wanted to kill you while saying weird things was more usual than a hug (not that that was a hug standard for Tim).

But then everyone started dying. His parents, Kon, Bart, Steph, BRUCE. Everyone. Every. One.

And Tim…Tim couldn’t seem to reach madness. I mean YEAH he wasn’t doing great by any standard, but he knew madness, he grew up in madness, and he wasn’t going mad.

The cloning was just a treat.

And during the Bruce-quest, everyone thought he was crazy, he was casted away because everyone thought he was crazy CRAZY Tim can’t he crazy! He knows that! He knows that in his blood that going crazy isn’t a chance for him. He made everyone crazy when they were around him (hence Jason. He knew that Jason was mad at him from the start, but going near Tim lighted a flame inside him that Tim is sure isn’t completely Jason’s) but Tim couldn’t go crazy. He could ACT crazy. But never too serious.

And then, in the depths of Greece, he met his dad. His real dad.

He always knew that Jake wasn’t his dad. The blonde hair his mother forced him to dye since he was 5 and the purple eyes his father forced him to hide with contacts told him that. But Tim grew up looking up at Jack, even if Jack didn’t love him, he was the dad that decided to (figuratively) stay. And Tim loved him till death.

But when that man appeared, Tim knew, with only a moment of stares, that that man was his father. They talked a bit, too. The man knew about everything Tim was doing, and that creeped Tim out, but when the man made appear a glass of wine for Tim (and one side for himself) and Tim drank it, he knew what he was.

Something on the flavor, on the feeling. It was Tim. It was home. Something he hadn’t feel in a long time.

He spent the rest of the quest feeling sure that he would make it, because somewhere on the heavens his dad was looking out for him, he promised he was. And this time it wasn’t a figuratively sentimental bullshit. His dad was really helping on the heavens. And Tim was gonna make it.

He saw him again when the quest ended. He appeared in all of his godly glory while Tim was living in the nest. He opened a can of soda and sat on his couch like he wasn’t a man Tim has only met twice, but that was ok, because that was his dad, and he was choosing to visit him. (Also, he wasn’t going to say no to a literal GOD) .

He yapped for two hours about the kids at the camp his dad forced him to work at ( “HE IS SUCH AN A-HOLE SOMETIMES TIM YOU DONT UNDERSTAND-“) and the more he talked about that camp, the more invested Tim got. At the end of it the man, his dad, just looked at him in the eye and said “y’know if you were there we could do this more often. Yer a better listener than that centaur. Also, I think your brothers would like having you there”

He leaves immediately for camp after that. The family thinks Tim decided to leave them for not believing in him, so it’s a shock when he comes back after the summer being great with a sword and with a Tan his skin haven’t known before, not even after fighting crime during the hottest days on San Francisco, and he was happy, like actually happy. A kind of happy he never was with them.

Tim made friends there. He was friends with Annabeth, a girl from the Athena cabin, who honestly thought that Tim was one of them after they had a talk about strategies on the field and all that, and was about to fist fight Dionysus for claiming one of her brothers. She still called him brother, but now she understood that Tim was a Dionysus kid. And her boyfriend Percy. They talked all night about the weight of being a leader and having your people die without you being able to do anything. Percy talked about a boy named Ethan and two girls named Zoe and Bianca. Tim talked about Steph, Kon and Bart.

Tim told him about the Bruce-quest, and Percy told him about the time he was ready to fist fight a good to get his mother back from the underworld.

He also fully loved his brother. Pollux was great and made him feel welcomed to camp. They talked during lunch and Pollux showed him every single thing that made camp especial. He also teached him how to make fun of their dad without turning into a dolphin, so yeah. They got along like a house on fire.

He also made friends with a girl from the Aphrodite cabin. Her name is Drew. She was kind of an asshole and tried flirting with him, and THEY DID GET TOGETHER FOR A BIT, but after some time they decided they were better as friends. And friends they were. Best friend even.

He never told the Batfam any of this.

So after some months in Gotham there’s a cult going around calling themselves “Children of Dionysus” and doing atrocious things.

Duke walked in on Tim trashing the training room of the cave, and later on Jason walked in on Tim having his fourth bottle of wine.

Tim was FURIOUS. Not only that was disrespectful to his dad, but to his brother and himself too. He was going to pick every part of that little cult and trash it.

There he meets Bernard. Then they get on a relationship.

When a sathyr comes to take Bernard to camp Tim goes with him, excited to have his dad meeting his boyfriend.

Dionysus has never been more uncomfortable than when he had to claim his son’s boyfriend in front of him. It wasn’t that hard before! But now they had those things against incest on the human world and he knew this wouldn’t be pleasant to any of his sons.

[my-gf-timothy-jackson-drake]

Hi!!! Omg I love ur drawing of Batman freaking out how small Red Robin is! Do you think he freaks out/hovers more when Red Robin gets sick plus with the lack of a spleen??

he's gonna get that boy so much soup

[parker-artio]

Do you think the Batkids shovel talk their siblings SO’s?

So I’m personally a multi shipper and can’t pick just one for these things. But Duke & Izzy, and Tim & Bernard, are both cannon, so there the relationships I’ll stick to.

But StephCass I will be including because atp in the comics they’re flirting with one another with their eyes and so much more. (They’re so gay for each other it makes me sick to my stomach)

(Ps. I wanted to add Damian and Flatline but I had 0 idea how to go about that, so this is what relationships you get instead)

Duke minding his own business in his room on FaceTime with Izzy: Hey, just a sec I need to go to the bathroom, I’m gonna leave you here.

Izzy studying or something in her room: okay.

Duke leaves:

Izzy sitting there continuing what she was doing when she suddenly sees the phone get moved: Duke?

Damian who just snuck into Dukes room and snatched the phone off of his bed for Jason, Cass, Tim, and him to all talk to Izzy: I’m not Thomas.

Izzy, confused but rolling with the punches: Clearly? Where are you taking me,

Damian: …

Izzy: hello?

Damian: somewhere.

Izzy totally not suspicious and confused: okay…

-Insert Duke’s phone propped up on a chair with the four siblings surrounding the cameras view, the lights all off and a light from below being the only source Izzy can see of them-

Izzy: I swear that there’s a missing one of you…

Damian: Richard is busy

Cass: also, little brother and him aren’t on good terms right now.

Izzy nodding, her previous task discarded: ‘Aight bet. So what’s up?

Tim snapping into detective mode: Where were you on the night of-

Jason cutting him off: Not doing that.

Jason: What are your intentions with Little wing?

Izzy unfamiliar with the nickname: …who?

Cass: little brother.

Izzy: Ah- okay.

Damian: do not deflect!

Izzy: my bad, uh, nothing too serious or crazy. Just… casual. But not like- casual, just… Y’know simple? Hard to explain. I care about him and-

Tim: okay. We get it.

Cass: How about-

Duke walking in and flicking on the lights revealing they’re just in a very unlit kitchen: Dude.

Tim and Damian simultaneously: It was Cass’s idea!

Duke: Cass!

Cass: Liars! It was a group conclusion!

Duke grabbing his phone: Never touch my phone again- that goes for all of you- and pass the message onto Dick.

Jason: yep. Okay. Fair.

Izzy: wait no let them finish, I was invested.

Duke: no!

Izzy did in fact pass the shovel talk. All of them liked how she matched the energy. Duke hated them all for it.

But for Steph’s they had to get more creative since she already knew all of them- some of them even longer than she’s known Cass.

Steph in the batcave after a long patrol, walking back out from changing out of her suit and seeing the cave is completely empty and silent: …

Steph after having checked everywhere and seeing no one: Hello?

-Steph leaving the cave and going upstairs just to get a bag thrown over her head and get dragged somewhere-

Steph already exhausted the bag still on her head, but knowing what’s going on: Guys this is so dumb.

Jason with his red hood helmet on and using the voice modulator to his advantage: We have to have a talk…

Steph: You’re not scaring me Jason.

Jason: I am not Jason- I am the ghost offf… of-

Dick whispering to him: the ghost of your guilty conscience

Jason: THE GHOST OF YOUR GUILTY CONSCIENCE!

Steph who very clearly heard Dick: oh so scary.

Tim: okay this isn’t working.

Tim ripping the bag off of her head: This is the shovel talk.

Steph: I figured.

Jason taking off the helmet: were you at least a little scared?

Steph: Where’s Damian and Duke? Were they not included?

Tim: They’re distracting Cass.

Steph: makes sense.

Dick: yeah… this was mostly for fun. We trust you already.

Jason: yeah…

Steph: I won’t be a bad girlfriend. I plan on marrying the girl.

Tim: wow, wouldn’t let Bruce be fatherly to you in anyway them turned around and said you’d willing marry into the family?

Steph: ironic I know.

Steph passed. No doubts. They couldn’t exactly fail her. She’d talk to Bruce about what they do if she did. And Bruce would not be okay with that. He’d be all Bat-Dad-Bruce mad about it.

For Bernard they had a lot of fun.

Bernard relaxing at home after a long day of work: Hey, Tim.

Silence.

Bernard: Tim?

Silence.

Bernard: Tim are you here?

Silence.

Bernard: I don’t know why I asked that.

Bernard leaving his room and walking out to see Dick, Jason, Duke, Cass and Damian all on the couch playing a game of phase ten together: Oh.

All of them looking over simultaneously:

Bernard: wow. Uh, Tim didn’t say you’d be visiting but that’s okay. Want something to eat? Or something to drink?

Cass: What are your intentions?

Bernard: Uh… Y’know what…. I just remembered that I have extra work to do.

Damian: Do not deflect Dowd.

Bernard: Sorry… just, don’t wanna answer invasive questions.

Duke: Too bad.

Bernard nodding: well, my intentions are sweet. I love your brother…

Jason: Gross.

Bernard: …

Dick: Are you going to continue?

Bernard: This feels more like an intervention than a shovel talk.

Duke: that’s entirely possible.

Bernard passed with flying colors.

Does this feel possible? Yes. Not in cannon. But to me. To me it feels possible.

Reblogs are always appreciated, but never needed !

you and chris were cuddling in his bed, limbs all tangled together as a random movie plays. it was mostly background noise, both of you too caught up in each other to even pay attention to it. your head rested on his chest, arms having a tight hold on his t-shirt while his hands slowly ran down your back in a loving and gentle caress. "i have to go home soon, chris." you say, trying to push yourself off of him so you could get up.

he wasn't having it, his hands stopped their soothing motions on your back long enough to push you right back down. "no, no, no, stay right here." chris whines, one of his hands moving up to cradle your head into his chest further. "spend the night, please." you let out a sigh, silently weighing your options. you wanted to stay, but you knew you had to get home.

finally, you nodded into his chest mumbling out a comply. "fine, i'll stay." chris's hold became tighter, you could practically hear the smile in his sleepy voice. "thank you, thank you. jus' wanna hold you s'bad." his boston accent always came out when he was feeling certain things – sleepy being one of them.
