Bruce gets the message a day after it happened.

"B. Wally's... gone."

Bruce doesn't pause to ask his oldest son what "gone" means. He slips on the last piece of his suit and is gone. He knows, in the back of his mind, that he should be there for his son. And he will be. Soon. But first...

He knows, firsthand, the pain of losing a child. Children*. He can't... he won't let Barry go through it alone. The way he did.

Its easy to find his address, not just because Bruce has known it since before he joined the Justice League.

The house is dark, quiet. Bruce slips in with ease, making his way to the living room.

Barry is sitting on the couch, head in his hands, empty bottles littering the floor. Bruce sinks down on the couch next to him, slowly, under no illusions that Barry doesn't know he's there.

"I'm sorry." He breathes. Barry huffs a laugh, wiping at his eyes.

"You'd know all about it wouldn't you?" He mutters, but Bruce doesn't let the insult land.

"Yes." he agrees simply, extending a hand to gently rest on his team members shoulder. "I know the pain. And the guilt. And I am here for you Barry. If you need it. If you want it."

Barry raises his head, glances over. Bruce has slipped his cowl off, his gloves, and sits there, unwilling, or unable to put on a brave face for his friend. Because it hurts. And there are no words, no comfort he can give him. The grief... it is gravity. Bound to pull even the strongest men down.

Barry dips his head in a gentle nod. "Yes." He whispers, and slumps back into the couch, further into Bruce's touch. "I want it. Please stay. Don't- don't go." Bruce nods, scooting closer on the couch to wrap an arm around the speedsters shoulders.

"I won't." He promises. "I won't."

Bruce becomes the touchpoint for grieving superhero parents. When Barry loses Wally, or when Oliver loses Roy, or whenever it happens to whomever, Bruce is there. Not as a leader, not to give them any advice. Just as himself, cowl off, sitting with them for as long as they need a friend

Eldritch/not-entirely-human Grunkle Stan stories have been eating away at my brain, so I have a silly little concept of Mimic!Stan.

He and his Mystery Shack are both mimics that lure tourists in as a literal "tourist trap" to gather and devour them! Since the house is alive, it raises a few (read: several) child safety concerns that lead to a LOT of rules to be created for Dipper and Mabel to follow when they eventually arrive, such as:

Be careful not to get lost in the winding hallways! The Mystery Shack is bigger on the inside, and you don't want to end up in the wrong areas.

Don't go through randomly appearing doors, they may eat you.

If you think you feel the walls around you breathing and the floor beneath you shifting, no, you don't.

If you think the walls feel a bit damp, you're imagining it.

Watch your fingers around windowsills! You wouldn't want to lose any of them.

Don't linger too long under the doorframes; it may start feeling like they are slowly constricting around you.

Wolfie and Four friendship appreciation doodles! They're shared secrets besties! I hope Four's distrust of the shadow crystal doesn't drive anything between them. Wild found his way into this compilation with a force. It seems I can't draw Wolfie and not include him too!

I've seen a few posts about women and pants now and many of them are very good, and not to nitpick those posts or downplay religious sexism or anything, but I have to emphasise:

Somebody who DOESN'T live in a controlling religious country/cult/family is also affected by sexism. We all know that, right? Secular parts of the first world also have opinions about how women dress, including when it comes to trousers, especially in childhood and in institutions like schools and the workplace

Me and many people my age (20s) remember being forced into skirts, punished and shamed by parents & teachers & peers & possibly then bosses about what we wear not being feminine enough, and it wasn't by deeply religious sects. Many updates to dress codes are very new and sexist views are still in place in many institutions. Normalised societal misogyny wants women (and people they want to treat as women) to dress femininely, down to what KIND of pants they're allowed to wear (compare a pink top and jeggings to mens jeans and tell me these two women are treated the same. Hating women in pantsuits is still a sexist office joke today, and even those outfits are feminine compared to male suits, which raise eyebrows when worn by women). The women I know who wear trousers regularly are literally otherwise feminine, and all wear dresses to events.

I know trousers have become much more normalised over the past few decades in secular society (yay!! the result of many many years of effort and lawbreaking) but let's not be absolute when we talk about the pants concept lol. Especially within a larger conversation about female/transmasc/intersex/transfem masculinity and social perceptions, especially in an age of rising fascism
