BRUCE GETTING DE- AGED AND JUST BEING ATTACHED AT JASONS HIP
Jason trying to leave multiple times and Bruce is almost in tears like “are you leaving me? 😢” and Jason’s like fuckkkkkkkkkk.
Imagine baby Bruce being the only version of Bruce able to communicate, but because he’s a child he cannot read social cues that well. Dick and Jason get into an argument over something stupid and baby Bruce is like “is this my fault? I’m sorry. I love you.” And it will be the ONLY time they ever hear those 3 terms in the same conversation with their dad.
Baby Bruce would definitely be VERY physically affectionate. He’s always wanting to hold Jason’s hand or hug him and when Jason finally gets fed up and asks about why he’s being so affectionate.
“This is the only time you’ll let me love you.”
I WILL DIEEEEEEEE
WHY IS MY BRAIN DOING THIS TO MEEEEEEEEEE

Canon Nightwing Fun Facts Part Two
(From someone reading Nightwing from rebirth to current)
-he has an advanced degree in forensics?
-he isn’t a fan of modern tech (mostly the idea of cell phones and social media culture) in the rebirth run. He still has a landline.
-he says that he likes the dial tone. That even as a boy in the circus, he could pick up a phone anywhere and hear that tone. It’s always been something steady in his life
- he had a secret lair in the subway tunnels of Blüdhaven and his password to get in is “Robin”
- He has a rolling batcave. A literal semi truck turned into a bat cave. It has everything you’d need, plus a bunch of Nightwing-y extras (a cabinet of unhealthy cereals, a turntable with vinyl records, and assorted gym rat stuff like a glute-master.) Batgirl made it for him.
Will add more parts as I continue reading!

It's my birthday tomorrow so I'm indulging with more OCs as a treat to me personally.
Halibut the wonderful mute (by choice) siren thinking about how in another universe, she can marry Tolliver. The other universe is Tomodachi Life. She married Tolliver in Tomodachi Life and I'm so normal about them being married and happy since they do not in fact get married and happy in canon. (thank you 3ds crack fodder game i love you and think about you often)

I don't really have "enemies" but if I did, people who try to make the Batfamily unproblematic...you're on thin ice and it's already cracking
#please. PLEASE.#I KNOW actually reading comics can be frustrating and confusing#but it is BLATANTLY obvious that you have only ever read fanfiction#or seen fanart#nothing wrong with appreciating a fandom that way#but PLEASE stop replacing the canon characters with your fanon ones#it's also just...so uninteresting#'oh everybody loves Steph they just let her quip them into silence all the time-' so you're just.#ignoring her entire backstory huh#'oh haha Jason is soooo justified he's just misunderstood and anyway he and Tim are besties'#HE LITERALLY BEHEADED PEOPLE. TRIED TO ASSASSINATE TIM HOWEVER MANY TIMES. I—#HOW ARE YOU COMING AWAY THINKING LIKE THIS#yes I love the Batfam and I want them to get along but I want them to work through their stuff NATURALLY#not just wave a wand and have it all magically poof out of existence!!!!#'ooooh Dick Grayson is just so happy and nice all the time—' tell me you've never read a Dick Grayson comic#without telling me you've never read one#'Damian's just a lil baby he likes animals and never does anything wrong-#my sister in Christ he was raised by assassins!!!!#'Tim is an angel he's soooo smart and drinks coffee non-stop'#that is not a character#that is a collection of fanfic characteristics dressed up in a trenchcoat#and you have taped a label with 'Tim' written on it in crayon to the back#do NOT even get me started on fandom Bruce#get AWAY from my guy!!! I LIKE that he's an emotionally complex character who maybe doesn't deal with grief or emotions#in the best way#but is still trying his damnedest to help those around him despite his own imperfections!!!!#get AWAY from me with your Brucie Wayne impression or your caricature of Bruce as an evil terrible father#get out I say!!!!#(I left out Cass and Barbara because what has been done to them I just...cannot put into words)#(but rest assured I have Thoughts about them too)

I'm not saying that Starfire needs a romantic interest to be interesting, but she is a very romantic person who likes having someone like that in her life. So, I think her next romantic interest should be Donna Troy. They've been very close since the beginning of New Teen Titans. They're both from cultures that exist outside heteronormative rules around love and sex. They're both really strong and passionate women who historically care very deeply for one another and they are both currently single and living in the same building. I think it's about time DC showed them locking lips.

do you believe Bruce is emotionally abusive? ik fans prioritise physical abuse and ultimately ignore emotional abuse tactics like parentification etc because it’s not “that bad”. I don’t believe Dick ever resents Bruce for letting him be robin (he’s grateful for it) , but in ntt he mostly resents him for being emotionally closed off, and rejecting him as a partner. Bruce worries for his kids safety so he pushes the whole “if you’re not perfect you’re dead” mentality onto Dick which ultimately is harmful to him. He’ll never regret being a hero but the rift between the two isn’t just a “we want different things” scenario but more that they’re incapable of giving the other what they want.
bruce being emotionally closed off from dick is what’s revisionist about that version of canon though. i think bruce can be bad at communicating sometimes esp when he’s deeply pained (like in knightfall, for example) but for the most part he and dick are shown to have great communication for decades before new teen titans and the adjacent post crisis starlin canon starts to rewrite that dynamic into something else entirely. per that version of canon i do believe he’s emotionally abusive but it’s not a version of canon i particularly appreciate bc it requires overriding the dynamic they had previously where they could certainly be prone to disagree at times but bruce was nonetheless willing to have an open and understanding conversation with dick about whatever the disagreement was. even the whole idea that bruce is responsible for dick believing that he has to be perfect or he has to be dead is one that new teen titans cements (or that issue of batman where bruce makes dick quit and jason is introduced thereafter)
i get that it’s easy to take new teen titans as gospel bc it is in essence the textbook source for dick but i think there should be some awareness too of how it twists that relationship between them and not necessarily for the better. i’m not opposed to bruce having faults he has to answer for. i absolutely agree he’s not cognizant enough of the complexes dick develops as a result of wanting to be seen as an equal, and thereby can’t realize the effect it has on dick for him to still be protective and fearful even if it’s ultimately out of goodwill and love. and there’s also the fact that even if he gives dick the space he desires to lead his own life it doesn’t mean he should be hesitant to reach out bc he’s afraid he’ll overstep by doing so, as a parent he should reaffirm his love for dick regularly regardless of knowing he might get some pushback bc dick is growing into his own (again, knightfall is a really superb example of this). but i also think those are tensions you can wholeheartedly explore without rendering bruce into a controlling and abusive figure, and i’m not sure who it benefits to write bruce as such in the long run
some of dick’s problems have to be his own, and he’ll never escape bruce’s shadow if the only source point of issues in his life is his relationship with bruce. that’s something i would actually apply to the robins at large. hardly any of them are allowed to explore problems entirely unique to themselves and i think that’s in large part bc writers simultaneously portray a mildly to explicitly abusive bruce at their leisure while refusing to ever actually address the elephant in the room that is literally of their own creation. a lot of people believe the bruce shouldn’t be an abuser argument is framed entirely as a resistance to bruce’s character assassination and for me i can admit that’s part of it, but a more pertinent part of it should also be the fact that bruce being written as an abuser is what truly chains his children to him forever to the point that they can never grow beyond that abuse bc writers refuse to allow them to. imagine the problems the robins could be addressing individually in their lives if not everything came down to them being fucked up bc that’s the way bruce raised them or failed to thereby. there’s a lot about the robins as individuals that’s deeply interesting and i think it’s not just a disservice to bruce but to them as well to write the relationships this way bc it obscures their own agency and ability to be explored for more than a haunted legacy narrative
#sry this is so very long. please know it is not me venting at you i simply have many thoughts 😭#but yeah like i think something that gets lost in translation is like. i absolutely do think those portrayals of bruce are abusive#i simply don’t think he should have been portrayed as such to begin with#starlin era bruce is very bewildering for me in all honesty i dislike it deeply#the issue where dick meets jason is one of my least favorite for the way it portrays bruce it feels so out of character for me#considering bruce was more than happy for dick to go off to college or to find his own place with the titans#and even with that famous issue where dick meets bruce after learning jason has died the writing is quite odd to me#i think bruce is very much someone who directs blame and frustration inward as opposed to outward#he’ll let himself get dog walked if he thinks he deserves it. which i think knightfall illustrates fabulously#the beginning of no man’s land as well#what i don’t think he would ever do is lash out at others when he knows the blame lies with himself. bruce is very self critical#so honestly that whole scene in the cave with him and dick. doesn’t exist to me i would literally rewrite it 😭#and i think it is very significant that wolfman chose to recreate that slap three times if memory serves while every other write in bat#editorial at the time straight up ignored it and acted like it never happened. like idk that plus the way bruce was characterized during#knightfall to me says a lot about how that was not supposed to be the status quo at all#anyway. sorry this has devolved into a whole other rant please do not mind me 😔#outbox

sometimes being obsessed with a character that gets mistreated by canon means sobbing about them as if their pain is you own.

Canon Nightwing Fun Facts: Part One
(From someone reading Nightwing from rebirth to current)
-He can read tarot cards
- Dick’s girlfriend has a pregnancy scare and Damian felt like Dick having a child would be a way to replace him
- Playing off of that - if Bruce didn’t take Damian in, Dick would have raised him as his kid, but he also wasn’t sure if he was ready to/was capable of being a father
- He owns a cross-fit studio
- He took a gig as a male dancer to sneak into a casino (in Batman boxers btw) and said that it was a lot of fun - then gave the money to an old lady who lost her retirement fund at said casino even tho he kind of needed it
- Went to Hudson University and did a semester at Blüdhaven College Law School
Will make more posts as I continue to read through the series

Sony please release your cruel and un-creative grip on my autism creature game series. I beg of you. Let them at least start naming the series innuendos again… PLEASE. I’m sorry the Future series ever even got released at this point PLEASE go back to the old ways I beg you‼️
#ratchet and clank#the talkinator 2000#I say this as someone who’s first game from the series I watched was Tools of Destruction and who’s first game I played was A Crack in Time#if all it led to was the series getting turned into the next ‘plays like it’s a Pixar game’ bullshit#I would have never wanted them 😭#like this SUCKS man. the old ratchet and clank was full of so much personality it feels like the new ones are a corporate PARODY of it#let them name the games stupid dick jokes again. I KNOW it’s sony doing this. PLEASE#STOP MAKING RATCHET SO SERIOUS. ITS SUPPOSED TO BE FUNNY#to be clear I’m not saying what makes the old games good is all the dirty jokes.#but I WILL say the dirty jokes prevent the series from taking itself too seriously#which it has started to do.#man at this point I don’t give a shit about the Lombaxes! give me another evil capitalist to throw into the moon!!#and the ‘last of their kind’ trope really is getting milked for all its worth and I’m tired of it!!#clank’s ‘chosen one’ trope story had more creativity man!!#alister was like the one spark of life in the lombax thing and then it went straight to bland again#the main characters don’t NEED this to be interesting. they don’t need greater than themselves destinies.#ratchet and clank and the other characters are interesting and fun without that!!#the thing I always liked is that Ratchet is the gun happy mechanic and Clank is the quipping impulse control with the hero alignment#the hero thing rubs off on Ratchet and he does start being a hero with Clank but it’s not his first instinct lol#also extremely sad that the reboot took away the running joke that Clank is the one getting the glory for their heroics#they don’t have a destiny reason for getting into the hero thing. they just got started and liked it and kept going#a lot of the times neither of them even WANTS to be involved they just get roped in!!#like you can do some background shit for them but throwing out all the rest that makes these characters fun to focus on it isn’t the answer#man I just. miss the fun and weird stuff they used to do with the characters and cast and places#they still do big environments but there isn’t other fun wacky shit to match#it’s just ‘destiny’ and heroism. that was never the point of this series 😭

Do I wanna talk about how much I unhealthily relate to Dick Grayson and his trauma in almost every form of media where he’s Batman’s traumatized eldest child and in the comics where he canonically got called a slut by his girlfriend after he got assaulted?
no.
