#i love WonderBat

[crimsonnotion65]

Loving Wonderbat means questioning whether or not you reblogged that post already

[soupinaboot]

In my opinion, Bruce should be above average height or at least average. But since he surrounds himself with demi-gods, aliens, meta humans, etc, he's just dwarfed next to them. Like maybe about 6'1 or 6'2, but that's NOTHING compared to Diana '7'3 feet tall' Prince. Or Clark '6'9' Kent.

All the tabloids claim he has to be at least 5 feet tall because the only photos they can get of him are when he's next to his giant ass friends.

It is also my personal headcannon that all the robins stay shorter than him, except Jason, who should be at least 4 inches taller.

i see your “bruce wayne laughs in upper class, 100 dollar bills fall from his lips when he chuckles, etc etc” take and i agree wholeheartedly but also i raise you

“bruce who doesn’t really laugh at things out loud like that really, he’s more of a nose exhale, brief grin and intense eye contact conveying his emotions” type of guy but sometimes

something will happen that constitutes, his full on body laugh and when its an instinctual thing it’s so rare that bruce doesn’t have a failsafe for that reflex and the person they’re with just,, stops

because the laugh they’re so used to can’t be compared to this genuine deep, heavy with emotion and feeling laugh that fills his lungs and your soul- and they just wish he would do that all of the time instead of his wooden paparazzi simpering and its something so stark that it throws them for a loop

and idk i just love watching bruce expose layers of himself to those he loves without consciously doing so

Inspired by that one person who continued a fic after their best friend died...

Jason Todd had an ao3 account. Jason Todd had balls of steel and logged into the batcomputer. (Trying to figure out his username but I keep thinking BlueBird or CrimeAlleyBoy)

Bruce was well aware of this. He didn't think to log it out of the batcomputer, keeping the tab open just for Jason. He's read some of that stuff that Jason has written (mind you, the kid was an avid defender and writer of WonderBat). He found it rather cute and it wasn't like Bruce has never read fanfiction about himself (both Bruce and Batman).

And Jason? He wasn't really sure if Bruce knew but he didn't really care that much. And besides, being Robin made sure he was prepared for anything the Ao3 curse was going to throw at him. If that damn curse sent Riddler then his fist would be the solution.

There were around 20 fics in that damn account, ranging from his OTP that was WonderBat, some SuperBat, and the crack fics of Bruceman. (Jason would never allow himself to tell Dick his username but he sure as hell has his older brother beta read all the Bruceman fics. That man was one of the OGs and he wouldn't disgrace his brother.)

He avoids the Ao3 curse until it appears in the form of the Joker.

When Jason dies, Bruce keeps the tab open, making sure that the account doesn't log off. Because that was a part of his son. (When he missed Jason a tad too much at times, he'd read one of those ridiculous fics that would make his two eldest sons laugh.)

When it's around two months after Jason's death, Bruce gains the courage to post an announcement on his son's account, making sure his fans were well informed and not anticipating for the next chapter.

I'm sorry to announce that this account will no longer be posting any updates. This is the author's father and I must unfortunately inform you that my son has passed away. Thank you for being there for him and reading his stories...

The post is along those lines.

(Tim was an avid reader of that account and was utterly devastated when Robin's death was further confirmed through this post. Yes he knew this was Jason's account. Of course he did!)

But Jason comes back from the dead.

Sees his account again after getting out of the league. Sees Bruce's announcement and maybe it makes him feel a little better.

But Jason's a menace and the day he started posting fics was the day he vowed that he wouldn't let the Ao3 curse take him. He even announced that to his readers in his first story (WonderBat obviously)

He posts an entire fic of oneshots consisting of Batman with numerous members of the Justice League. In his end notes, it says:

Not even death can stop me. I write WonderBat in the face of Death and told him to fuck off.

The next few posts consist of Batman/Justice League, even a few Bruce/Justice League (yes, that includes Batman). And Bruce, with Jason's account still logged into the batcomputer, is mortified when he sees Tim shamelessly read a 5+1 fic of BatLantern on that huge ass screen.

Okay but Bruce is minding his business at some bouji gala that Clark and Diana are also attending for fanfic purposes. And Diana has a gorgeous black feather Boa on as part of her outfit because that woman can pull off any look. And this woman can't go a single day without messing with Bruce in some way, so she slinks up to him while he's fake flirting with someone else and she slides the Boa over his neck to get his attention. She is NOT expecting his shoulders to shoot up to his ears, nor is she ready for the strangled squeal he let's out when the feathers unexpectedly drag across his skin.

Diana's smirk is terrifying when she shoves her way into Bruce's space, casually bumping the man he was flirting with aside as all her attention is focused on the blush crawling up Bruce's neck and into his cheeks.

"Do not." Bruce warns, eyes wide as Diana uses to Boa still laying around his neck to pull him closer. "Not here." He pleads ammends when she raises an eyebrow at his harsh tone.

"Clark." Diana murmers, even as she continues to lock eyes with an increasingly worried-looking Bruce. "I think it's time we make our exit." Clark must say something back, because Diana grins and Bruce has to fight the urge to take a step back. Not that it would do him any good with Diana loosely holding onto either end of the Boa still draped over the back of his neck.

You're right and you should say it

Batman can and should be shipped with Superman and/or Wonder Woman, but Superman & Wonder Woman should never be shipped together unless they are in a polyamorous relationship with Batman

Bruce Wayne ships I like and why:

(P.S this is all silly and idrc if you disagree xoxo💋)

Bruce x Clark Kent

Superbat is awesome

Bruce x Oliver Queen

Child hood friends (they can also be Poly with Dinah, I don’t judge 🙌 we love Dinah in this household)

Bruce x Harvey Dent

Heartbreaking

Bruce x Diana Prince

He bottoms

Bruce x Hal Jordon

They hate eachother???? They’d be each others Work Wife

Bruce x Talia al Ghul

They train together and love eachother vry much, prolly kinda toxic and they’re both convinced that they can fix eachother. Talia will in fact be an amazing mother to all of his kids… except Dick. They both (mostly jokingly) hate eachother

Bruce x Minhkhoa Khan

They are so ‘Reluctant Allies to Lovers to Enemies to Friends to Lovers again’ who never actually really hated eachother but both had so many of their own issues to figure out that it didn’t work at first. They have so many conflicting morals and history that they really have to discuss. They kiss it’s sexy

Bruce x Selina Kyle

??? It’s Bruce x Selina??? Seen I explain more????

Bruce x Arthur Curry

Because that’s so fucking funny??? Oh my God????

Bruce x J’onn J’onzz

They both have autistic swag

Bruce x the entire justice league

Minus like, the actual children. Poly justice league for the win

Bruce x Nick and Nora Bromfield

Because then he can parent the Batsons without disrespecting them. Fuck some of you guys who shame my girl Mary’s beautiful loving parents

Bruce x Lex Luthor

…Sorry? I don’t think they could be in any sort of long term relationship and I want them to be extremely awkward around eachother. They both respect eachother and kinda get along as people, they can just never look eachother in the eye without being filled with great embarrassment, the only person atleast partially exempt from the Brucie persona while in public simply because Bruce would rather put a gun to his head than ever flirt with Lex again.

Bruce x Lois Lane

🤷

As you can tell, I always have amazing reasoning for my opinions I you all clearly agree with everything I have just said /j

The vast majority of these can and should be made polyamorous but I’m not gonna get into that

[arkangelo-7]

Diana Prince is a stronger woman then me because if this DILF cornered me at a gala in a fitted tuxedo, fore-played with some art facts, and whispered into my ear about what a dangerous woman I was, I would actually self combust. Total annihilation. I would let that man do anything he wanted to me.

Diana: I have a wife.

Clark: I didn't know you like women, let me see her!

Diana, shows a picture of Bruce Wayne:

Clark, confused: that's Bruce tho...

Diana: I know, he's my wife

Clark: you go girl!

You know what I want right now? Bruce and Diana on a coffee date.

I need Bats drinking a totally different order because HELL NO HE AINT DRINKING AMERICANO OR BLACK BITTER COFFEE.

Diana? Maybe a Latte or a Mocha drink.

I remember drawing some time ago of these two drinking coffee together but that sketch is hiding under tons of paper and school binders :(

[everythingisawayoflife]

just rewatched the episode of justice league unlimited when circe makes bruce sing “am i blue?” in order to turn diana back to normal and my sappy little brain is now thinking of bruce singing his boys lullabyes.

like think - a nightmare of dick’s gets too bad. he watches his parents fall to their deaths over and over and he can’t stop it. he wakes, screaming, and bruce dashes in and is caught off guard when dick’s sobbing into his pajamas. it’s the first thing he thinks of so he hums, low at first, but then he starts quietly singing the lyrics to some lost jazz song from the great american song book as he holds dick and within those three minutes, dick’s out like a light.

then comes jason. he gets a little too reckless in the field and he’s got himself an injury, a pretty bad one too. normally he sucks it up and takes the pain on like nobody’s business but maybe this one is just a little more painful. he’s just too tired and is now just an exhausted kid who’s emotionally overwhelmed. and he cries. cries like he’s never cried before. he’s in a lot of pain and wants it to stop. but then comes bruce with his gentle melodies and deep voice and suddenly the pain isn’t so bad anymore.

(thinking about how after the whole death and revival thing and maybe jason and bruce are on shaky terms and while he’s not exactly clamoring to be with bruce, he buys himself a dandy little music box containing a song a certain someone use to sing to him and the first time he hears the melody, he sheds some silent tears. he listens to it any time he just needs to be calm. don’t tell bruce)

or there’s tim who doesn’t no when to say no (to staying up late, that is). three, four days go by and he’s still at a case he can’t just crack. he needs to sleep and he knows this but he’s this close. eventually he can’t keep trucking and he passes out all over his assortment of files and clues. he’s found drooling on one file and bruce resolves to just carry his kid to bed. he starts humming snd singing while he helps an unconscious tim get ready for bed. what bruce doesn’t realize is tim woke up when he felt the altitude change of being carried. bruce’s singing voice becomes one of tim’s favorite sounds in the whole world and he resolves to hear it anytime he can.

then we get to damian. he’s in a new environment, he doesn’t really trust much. then the unthinkable happens: he gets sick. its so remarkable cause he’s never gotten sick before. or, at least had someone to care for him. it’s some pesky little flu bug but it hits hard. he tries hiding himself away, not wanting to be seen as weak. in the middle of the night, he throws up. it hurts like a bitch. his stomach pushes but there’s nothing left to give. damian finds he can’t stand and bruce finds him. damian tries shooing him away, he doesn’t want to be seen as weak but eventually he just stops. he’s tired. he throws his head back down in the toilet and bruce lays a hesitant hand on his son’s back. when he’s not pushed away, he rubs soothing circles. again, he’s not dismissed. then, he sings. through the blood pounding in his ears, damian hears his father’s voice above the noise. it helps quite a bit.

that got longer than expected. i will now be listening to “am i blue?” on repeat. kevin conroy you are so loved and so missed.
