Thinking about how when Alfred Pennyworth writes fanfiction he imagines Dick Grayson as a reporter. He's a real one for that.
Don't worry about what Bruce has to say, Alfie, I'LL read your fanfic.

69.8% are not happy people dis on Bruce in the Batfam tag. This is my official petition that y’all use a different tag. Poll bellow
Here are my suggestions for y’all to use instead
What does this hope to accomplish?
Less arguing. People who love Batman won’t see the hate in BATfam tag.
And people who don’t like him can post in peace without Bruce stans going after you. This is a mutual benefits thing
I’m partial to y’all having Gothfam or DiFam. Especially DiFam as I can see why people would rather Dick lead the family. Or NightFam if you want his vigilante name. Or y’all can come up with one.
Also to address the person who said the Bat can stand for those who have been Batman before. But no. Dick was a Batman. He played the role. He ISNT Batman. That’s also taking away Dicks identify as Batman’s whole association is with Bruce not Dick. Batman is Bruce Wayne (not counting future) it’s a expression of his trauma. Don’t make it Dicks
#batman#batfam#bruce wayne#damian wayne#robin#tim drake#jason todd#nightwing#red hood#red robin#Do I think this will actually work? no#do I wish it does so that there can be peace? yes#half my feed today was anti Bruce. it raises my blood pressure

This randomly reminded me of one of my favorite images on my phone: Super Friends screenshot with inexplicably flying Batman
I need one (1) Batfam adaptation that inexplicably gives them all magical girl transformation sequences and just doesn't explain it ever. Outsiders are like what just happened what was that what did I witness, nobody told me you guys have super powers and they're like umm we don't? Stop being weird, there are bad guys to fight.

Death, birthdays, expectations, and still needing to pee.
Massive brain dump.
Writing is part of my process, and I am processing below the cut.
Mom passed this morning. Her nurse was sitting with her, then got up to check on another patient, and Mom left. It hurts more than I expected it would, it's more of a relief than I expected it could be. Her slide into dementia was horrifying not only for those who knew her, but FOR her. She knew at times that this was happening to her, and it was the ultimate body horror, where your brain turns on you. She was delusional at times, but they were rational delusions if that makes sense. They were plausible and that made them all the worse, I think.
Her stroke came, and comfort measures were implemented. It was her preference, stated clearly before and after the onset of dementia. Adult kids, never underestimate the impulse to Do Something despite those wishes. I fought it off again and again. Yes, she could have been taken to the hospital, had the MRI, been treated, maybe have a few more months in a body that was hemiplegic, bedbound, in need of contstant intervention. That would not have been love - and I did love her. I freely admit there was a time I did not.
Mom was a traumatized person, raised by traumatized people. Her love for me became conditional, and she was not a nurturing person. There were times when her frustration with me acting out my own trauma became physical at times. But as an adult her friends all said she was so proud of me. Our relationship was not healthy, and as an adult I've tried to move away from the conflict and pain. I see the frail, hurt, maladapted but brilliant, motivated, and passionate person she was. If she had been born a Millennial or Gen Z, the world would have a lot on its hands with her. I am a believer in reincarnation, if someone has a baby girl who tries to march out of her bassinet and take on the world, please hold and love and nurture her - she had a hard time.
Dear Universe, when you balance the scales, please take into account my forgiveness and the final forgiveness she gave me last year. Know that we reached peace with one another.
She passed when my BFAM and I were on the phone, talking about her memorial arrangements. It was almost as if she knew and said, "Okay. I am loved and cherished, they're Talking about me and the things I loved and valued. It's okay for me to go."
I will inform her friends today, and I am not looking forward to that.
For now it's good. I'm going to have a lot to process, but for now it is good.

My birthday is this week, and it's one I did not expect to have, considering the cancer that I had and my odds of remission. I did not even mark it last year. I was too sick from chemo and radiation. I did not formally enter remission until the end of December, six weeks after the major surgery. My cancer could come back, they test me every month and I will have a CT scan and colonoscopy this month to make sure it's gone. If it's come back, I don't know what I'll do. I'll cross that one as and if I come to it.
I could not feel less like celebrating considering the concatenation of circumstances, but I am marking it.
Mom did not die on my birthday, and I am thankful for that.
I'm alive. Not great, but alive. Living with the sword of Damocles over my head, but alive. Happy birthday to me.
~
There are horrible times in our lives when it feels as if the world should stop. Time should shut down and hold us in the moment and let us process. There are times when you cry enough that you feel as if all the tears have been spent and in that stillness, that there will never be any more tears ever again. That's not the case, is it? There will be more tears, more horrible stillness.
And in that stillness will come one thought, floating to the surface.
"I need to pee."
The world did not stop. Time did not shut down. You get up and go to pee.

Going through my drafts and found my attempt to figure out which elements were 100% new to the Robin III outfit (ignoring elseworlds and other alternate suits worn by Dick Grayson).
& noted that outfit Jason Todd I is wearing also belonged to Dick Grayson, so it's extra tempting to claim the red trunks & green leggings as pre-Tim property, but I'll be reasonable and leave them out of it.
For all the talk about who wears pants, maybe it truly is about the dark outer cape... 😲
They really spent decades trying to give our boy pants though, didn't they.
Anyway, I've determined that someone needs to find Paul Decker of Los Angeles and run him a check, because I swear that's the base design of several modern Robin uniforms. 🧐🤔
Tim fans see Dick as Robin (like this) and think that this is okay and acceptable
Tim fans see Dick as Robin (like this) and think:
"Copycat thief! Having to steal Tim's look. Dick has never had an original thought in his life. Always ripping Tim off"

#Bruce is sexist but him laying out ground rules and sticking to the agreed on consequence was not [tag via @mzminola]
+ I think you have to be Robin for almost a year before you can get away with the disobedience and keep your job.
Batman #469 09/1991. (Tim officially receives the mantle in Batman #457 12/1990.)
Robin #87, April 2001.
(Note: Batman has an odd idea of what counts as rebelling, considering he's the one who betrayed Tim's trust btw.)
Batman makes reasonable calls sometimes. Other times he makes me want to scream.
Like I mentioned on my previous post, there’s a particular aspect of how Steph got fired from being Robin that I find particularly interesting. (And based on your tags, @alvindraperzzz, you're going to enjoy this as well ;) )
So, just as a reminder, this is the deal that Stephanie and Bruce make when he agrees to let her be Robin:
"You're on probation. You don't learn any of the big secrets. And the first time you disobey my orders, is the precise moment you're out. No second chances."
Here's what makes this interesting: Tim also had a probationary period. It took place between 1989's "A Lonely Place of Dying" storyline and 1991's Robin miniseries, happening in scattered pieces across bits of Batman, Detective Comics, and other associated books.
Aside from changes in comm-tech between 1989 and 2003, there's only two major differences between Steph's probationary period and Tim's. First, Tim already knew the biggest of the Big Secrets, so he gets moments of interacting with Bruce and Alfred in civilian mode and even stays with them during school holidays. And second, Tim was not allowed his own costume and was forbidden from going out on patrol. Presumably, this second difference comes from a mix of Bruce's implied scheme to lure Tim back, Steph already having copious experience on the streets as Spoiler, and just general management of their differing personalities.
The important thing is, during this time, Tim was under the same restrictions as Steph: stay out of this fight, and if you disobey me you're gone. And there came a time, right at the end, where Batman wound up in a dangerous situation versus a supervillain (in this case, Scarecrow) and the would-be Robin chose to break the rules. What's interesting is the parallels and differences between the two scenes, and how, if you're paying attention, they're pretty consistent, despite their very different endings.
For one, in Tim's case, he's not initially on the scene, and he doesn't have contact with Bruce (like I said, 1980's comm-tech -- Oracle wasn't even a thing yet). This means that he isn't defying direct orders when he chooses to act. And he doesn't rush in himself right off the bat -- his first choice is actually to dial up Commissioner Gordon on the landline.
It's only after he runs out of ways to get a hold of Batman and warn him of the danger that he makes the decision to go out. And he does so very conscious of the fact that this is going to cost him Robin, in spite of the months of work he's put in.
Stephanie, on the other hand, is on the scene and has a direct line to Batman. She's chattering in his ear the whole time, to the point that he has to tell her to be quiet because she's distracting him. And when the fight gets going, he tells her repeatedly that he's doing fine, don't come in here, stay in the plane.
She lasts maybe fifteen seconds before abandoning her comms and diving in.
She doesn't wait or consider her options. She doesn't even give their deal so much as a passing thought. She simply assumes that she knows better than him and leaps in without thinking. Which mostly just demonstrates that a) she doesn't trust him which is bad when you're trying to form a partnership, and b) she can't be trusted to follow orders.
Also, frankly, she demonstrates poor judgement by completely misjudging the situation. Bruce does not need her help. Even injured, he's doing just fine. Stephanie rushing in is nothing but a distraction and, ultimately, what loses the fight.
Tim, on the other hand, judged the situation correctly. When he arrives on the scene, Batman (and innocent civilian Vicki Vale, not shown for space) is in trouble. He's been caught by Scarecrow and genuinely needs the back-up because he's being psychologically tortured.
Another parallel is that both Robins wind up in trouble as a result of coming to Batman's rescue. Which makes sense, they're teenagers versus adults with super-tech, training and horrible fear chemicals.
In Tim's case, he gets doused with fear gas (specifically "essence de trauma" because this was back when Scarecrow had specific strains of his stuff) which trapped Tim in an illusion of the very recent attack on his parents. Seriously, this is happening like, the day after they buried his mother.
But! He pulls himself out of it with the help of what might be hallucinations or might be the ghosts of Jason Todd and the Earth-1 Dick Grayson (it's never explained because this was the late 80s and nobody questions this stuff when half the creative staff is running on cocaine.) He then manages to turn the tables on Scarecrow and actually save the day.
Stephanie, on the other hand, gets herself caught.
Which, like I said, loses Batman the fight. And more importantly, it puts Steph's life in danger and she's not able to get herself free.
And it isn't like she doesn't have the opportunity, in-universe. This is where the scene ends, but Bruce recaps on the next page how Scarab, quote, "Left Robin tied up, but alive and uninjured" when she stole the Bat-plane to make her escape.
So, if you're a reasonable person, I hope you can see how there's already multiple strikes against Steph that don't really apply to Tim: she broke the rules thoughtlessly instead of with consideration, she defied direct orders instead of taking initiative on her own, and she completely misjudged the situation, putting herself in danger for no real reason and costing Batman the fight.
But now, we come to the difference that almost everyone overlooks, but I think is the real key to the whole thing: how each Robin behaves in the aftermath.
Because, see, Tim comes to Bruce immediately afterwards and owns up to everything.
I really like this scene because what Tim says here is very deliberate. He doesn't make excuses or try to deny anything. He simply explains himself and then apologizes, fully willing to accept the consequences of his actions.
It's a very mature thing to do. I couldn't have done it at 13. I'm not fully confident I could do it now, at 33. And in return, Bruce says this:
This is the story where Tim earns his wings. In the next two pages, he's given his costume and is officially made the new Robin. And it's because he demonstrates, through his actions in this story, that he understands both the weight of the legacy and the very real responsibility he's about to leap into.
Compare that to how it goes down with Steph.
Like I said in my previous post, despite Bruce saying she'd be out "the precise moment" she disobeyed him, Bruce doesn't fire her immediately after the Scarab incident. Instead, the story skips ahead by three weeks, until after Bruce has recovered from his injuries.
This is something he's shown consciously choosing to do, though he doesn't explain why. I like to think it's to give her time to consider her actions.
Note the difference in the way that Steph behaves: she shows up in her costume, with the standing assumption that they're going to go after Scarab. The only thing that she thinks would've prevented them from doing so is Batman's vision not healing.
She feels "guilty" about him being blinded, but that just demonstrates that she doesn't really understand the situation -- Batman was blinded while she was in the plane. Which implies that what she feels "guilty" about is not disobeying him sooner. The fact that she put herself in danger, the fact that she broke the rules, these things never cross her mind.
You'll note that she doesn't apologize either. Again, it's probably not deliberate, but "I feel so guilty, it was all my fault!" is not the same thing as "I'm sorry." The former is what you say when you're trying (consciously or not) to get the person you've wronged to comfort you. To tell you that it's okay, you didn't mean to do it, everybody messes up so don't feel bad. Which you'll note that Bruce does.
It's only after Steph does this, comes to him acting like nothing's wrong and they just had a little oopsie-daysie on the way to their next rip-roaring adventure, that Bruce finally drops the bomb.
Note the "direct order in the field" specification.
Stephanie only starts to admit that she did something wrong after she realizes she's going to be punished, and even then, she's not apologizing, and she's not owning up to her actions. She's making excuses, trying to wheedle out of the consequences of her own actions. And not once does she ever seem to internalize that she could have died.
And all of this is very in-keeping with her personality as established up to his point.
In short, while the two situations are very similar, Stephanie's actually demonstrates the exact opposite of Tim's: even after years of being Spoiler and multiple occasions where her own life, civilian lives, and the lives of people she supposedly cares for have been on the line, she's still treating this all as a game where the most important aspect of the outcome is how she feels about it. It's not just that she made "one mistake," this is part of a pattern for her, one that demonstrates very aptly that she does not understand the danger she's putting herself in, doesn't respect the guidance of the people who are trying to teach her, and frankly, has no interest in ever getting better, because she doesn't think she has a problem.
It can't be her fault, after all. She just made a little mistake! It's everyone else who're being unfair to her, holding her to rules and agreements she never meant to honor, and they'll all see as soon as she can prove them wrong...
And we all know where that leads.
Now, there are people who believe that this entire issue is simply unfair to Stephanie. And yeah, there's an entirely different discussion to be had about the out-of-universe decisions surrounding this story, the intention of the creators, etc. But I think everything that happens here in Robin #126 is as in-keeping for Steph's personality as the events of Batman #457 are for Tim. And I believe that, in both, Bruce's reasoning is fair and based on sound judgement, not sexism.
Still, they're very fun to compare. The nuances between the different relationships is very interesting.
