#grayson the gargoyle

[lexotics]

This handsome boy is my current socialization project! His name is Grayson, and he is a Gargoyle gecko. He has done quite well with me and will hang around on the back of my shirt, up on my shoulders, or even in my hair for hours comfortably now. He is less tolerant of improper handling so he is not yet ready to handled by kids but he's doing such a good job so far. I'm a very proud parent of this spicy little darling ❤️

Saw a post about the juxtaposition between “disaster boy™️” Richard Grayson and “just a little guy™️” Jason Todd while in “I’m a new mom and I don’t know what I’m doing™️” Brucie’s care and had to add to the conversation

The Richard parenting experience

Bruce: What a nice quiet evening.

Somewhere in the manor: *boom* *crash* *the distinct sound of something very expensive breaking*

Bruce, running full tilt to the source of the noise thinking the manner has been compromised: Is everything okay?!? What’s going-

Robin!Dick, on the floor next to a broken chandelier, a smashed heirloom and a shattered wardrobe: uhhh…Oops?

The Jason parenting experience

Bruce: what a nice quiet evening… too quiet.

Bruce sprints to where his son was last: Jason?

Robin!jason: yes?

Bruce: *oh he’s still there!* what are you doing?

Robin!jason: …reading

Bruce: …oh

Robin!jason: that’s allowed right?

Bruce: yes that’s fine.

I would find it so funny if Bruce Wayne, who has an ironic and slightly ridiculous disdain for the occult, had to grapple with his kids' deep belief in the occult. For instance, if one of their siblings went missing with no leads, Bruce would insist on a new search strategy while the kids would be convinced they should at least consult a medium once to get proof of life. The medium would call out Batman for his shitty energy and Bruce would contemplate all the life decisions that led to this.

Prompt 175

Talon -William Cobb, that was his name once, he remembers that much at least- stares down blankly at the small child who is clinging to its -his His HIS- pant leg, tiny claws digging into the cloth and gripping onto the armor. It he freezes, unsure as to how to react. With Hunts or Orders, the talon knew exactly what to do. Entertain. Kill. Simple. 

Talons were supposed to kill witnesses, he- IT knows this, especially as one of the oldest talons that belonged to the Court. Yet the talon hesitates, something stopping it from doing so. The child looks up at it, something oh so familiar about the motion, with blue-green eyes before burying their face against its- his?- leg. 

“'̵m̸ ̵c̴o̷l̵d̸…” the child-chick… spoke? Not-spoke. Something else, familiar-yet-not. But cold, he knew that. Cold was bad, it meant sleep, not rest but a deep frozen sleep that took time to awaken from. A dangerous thing. A thing not-talons didn’t wake up from. 

The chick -Hadn’t he had a child once, all that time ago- whined, bringing its-his attention back to them. Talon could wait to return to the Court for a few hours more- the task it had been given was already complete-and keep the Cold away from the tiny chick. Just for a little bit.

birds and shutterbugs

Tim Drake was cutting it close, and he knew it, but this was the coolest night of his whole life. Perched on the other end of the roof, ranting at one of the frankly horrifying stone gargoyles, was Robin.

Not just any Robin, but the one he had seen make Batman laugh. Sure, the flips were cool when Dick wore the suit, but Jason was just so cool. He unscrewed the cover on his camera, cautiously adjusting his crouch so he could get a better angle. He knew Jason had freckles from going to classes with him, but he had never managed to catch a clear enough picture of Robin where he could see the freckles.

"-nother thing, he just expects me to want to rotate the tires on the Batmobile. Just 'cuz I tried to steal them doesn't mean I want to touch the fuckin' things ever again. And don't get me started on Dickface, always bitchin' an moanin' bout how unfair it is that soo many people wanna date 'im," Jason was waving his hands at the gargoyle, and Tim was distinctly reminded of watching the older boy perform as Mark Antony in Caesar.

It was almost too easy to snap pictures during the tirade, but when the boy wonder paused to take a swig from a Bat Burger cup, Tim realized he forgot to silence the shutter. It was comical, and in any other situation (preferably several rooftops away), Tim might've laughed, but seeing the narrowed eyes of a domino mask zero in on him- made his blood run cold.

Tim watched the empty Bat Burger cup drop onto the roof in what could only be described as abject horror, "Who, and I can't stress this enough, the fuck are you?"

Any moisture in Tim's mouth dried in half a heartbeat when his hero started towards him. "Uh—um," he fumbled to stash his camera back in his bag. "I'm uh—no one?"

Robin smiled in a way that was somehow still terrifying, "No one? Is that a family name?"

"No?" Tim was so screwed. Jason- Robin wouldn't hurt him, Robins never hurt kids, but if his parents found out about his nightly activities...

"You sure about that?" Robin was within reach now, his arms crossed around his middle, "You don't sound sure, no one. What're you doin' out here anyways?"

Tim inched backwards towards the fire escape as subtly as he could muster, "I'm a tourist?"

Robin's smile got even wider, "You're what- tourin' darkened rooftops?"

"And shady alleys!" Tim tried to joke, but it came out more as a squeak. Puberty sucks.

Robin laughed, and internally Tim screamed with accomplishment. He, Timothy Drake, the world's dorkiest shadow, had just made Jason Todd, ROBIN, laugh. Best night of his whole life, by miles. Life could not get better. Robin straightened, still smiling with his hands perched on his hips, "So no one, can this tour include a stop at the diner down the block? Dunno 'bout you, but I'm feelin' a waffle."

Tim wasn't opposed to being wrong.

I need a fic where the whole bat family ends up at Jason’s favorite gargoyle one by one, and not in an angsty Jason related way, but more in a they’re all losers who just did something dumb and now they need to think about what they did kinda way. Also Jason should charge them for being there like a parking meter.

[msfcatlover]

In the monster!kids AU, Dick & Jason have a running argument about how Jason never, ever lets Dick try to break Jason’s falls.

Dick: “But it’s my job to look out for you! What kind of big brother do you take me for?!”

Robin!Jason: “Dickie. I am 800lbs of solid limestone. And you are made of hollow glass. In what world is me falling on you a good idea?”

Hood!Jason: “GET IT INTO YOUR HOLLOW HEAD THAT I WEIGH A LITERAL TON! YOU’RE MADE OF GLASS, DICKHEAD! YOU. WILL. DIE.”

Dick, grumbling: “Porcelain is ceramic, not glass…”

batman/tmnt adventures #5

[ID: Bruce Wayne, Dick Grayson, and Barbara Gordon all in their respective costumes. They're relaxing and contently eating dinner together. Dick is sitting against a gargoyle as Barbara sits on the roof next to it. Next to her, Bruce is standing with one of his feet up on a ledge and giving a thumbs up. They're all eating takeout pepperoni pizza, the soggy slices disgustingly drooping in their hands. END ID]

31DOD Day 2 (Day 17)

I have never played either game because I am more of a tile based strategy kind of person so I'm going back to Day 2!!

Choosing a favorite issue is so difficult so I'm just going to slap some down.

Secret Origins (1986) Annual #3

This is a great issue because it recaps a lot of Dick's youth in a really strange angsty way. I also find it hilarious that Dick has managed to make not one but TWO interdimensional demons hat him. Gargoyle and antithesis should make a come back in modern comics. I guess Trigon hates him too but I'm kind of sick of him. (I know Titans Hunt exists but it was kind of lame and very ooc)

Let Them Live: Unpublished Tales From the DC Vault #2

This one is so much fun! It is the kind of crazy comic book stuff I live for. I imagine Dick does this shit all the time.

Nightwing (2016) #9

Dick and Clark are one of the coolest duos in comics! One of my favorite quotes comes from here too:

Nightwing (2016) #42

Another wonderful story similar to the unpublished tales. I also love the implication that a dragon lives in the batcave now. (add another cult to the list of cults that hate Dick Grayson)

Nightwing (1996) #150

This one is super nightwing to me. It brings back his beef with Dent which is always nice to see (and feels very forgotten these days). He does parkour between a bunch of blimps to save the day after not sleeping for way too many hours. 'wing is definitely a workaholic and it shows in this one.

Nightwing (1996) #151

This next one has Dick breaking a world record. Also very entertaining.

Superman/Batman Annual #5

I love this one because Dick!bats is out there fighting for his life against the greatest Justice League Villains while Supergirl gets a therapy session down the hall. Dick and Kara also have the cutest sibling relationship. I miss that for them.

Batman/Superman: World's Finest Issue #6

I've said it before, but I am living for the current world's finest comics. Enjoyable read :)

There are definitely others that I go back and read, but I think these have the best stories.

@batfam-big-bang has come around again folks! This year we have a gargoyle batman AU which im so !!!! about
