Pride month

Bruce: Alfred, it's time.

Gotham City media: Batman has been seen in his pride month suits, it's wonderful to see Batman support the lgbtq+ community.

Jason: glad you support the gays, but when are you gonna lose the underwear over those suits? It's embarrassing.

Dick, stitching up Wally's suit again (he's inpatient y'all): he won't, the underwear is for the gays.... Don't look at Meower (Twitter but own by our queen Catwoman), my eyes can't unseen the thirst traps

Bruce: I'm just supporting my gay kids, is that so bad?

Tim: yes, mixing Brucie Wayne and Batman thirst traps, horny comments, and the league and villains blowing up your work phone I use is horrible... Aunt Diana shouldn't be calling you baby girl in front of my own eyes.

Steph: also homophobic you wearing that, nah, not on my watch I'm going to make suits so gay so cunty you will serve so bad joker will go to jail without fuss.

Cass: thank god, if I have to see those underwear again I will unadopted myself from embarrassment.

Bruce: the first suit was a good suit, haters gonna hate.

Them: ew... Stop

Duke: hey steph of not too overwhelming, think you can make all of us pride suits?

Steph: on it. Excuse me loser I have a job to do.

Dick: do you want to fix dipshits suit for me?

Steph: your boyfriend your duty to fix his shit.

Dick: he's lucky he's pretty.

Damian: Stephanie, a word on my suit colors... I think I want the trans flag.

Steph: is this you coming out or supporting trans kids?

Damian:... Both.

Obsolete Meat silly willy art of me as teto and @cheesesauxe as miku :33

i rlly wonder who s is!! ( @star-dust78 )

[mik3stuff]

DC AU where everything is the same except it's in Brazil

okay okay that's a good one!

Gotham = Rio de Janeiro (RJ), Metropolis = Fortaleza (CE), Central City = Brasilia (DF), Star City = Salvador (BA), Bludhaven = São Gonçalo (RJ) i know looking at the images it doesn't make much sence but trust me

The Kents are from the backlands of Ceará, but Clark moved to Fortaleza in search of work years later as an adult.

The Waynes are subcelebrities and have CERTAINLY already had about 7 false exposures that gave them a headache to deny on our late Xwitter (X + Twitter, it's a meme)

Jason is definitely the kind of person who refuses to go to McDonald's, but instead, every weekend he and the Outlaws +Duke go to a favela diner owned by some old lady he met when he was homeless, and each of them eats, like, three Brazilian-style hot dogs.

Indigenous Wonderfam, Black/Mixed Batfam (yes even Bruce. the only exeption is Cass and Damian are still Asian/Arabian, just mixed) and Superfam and i don't know the others well enough to tell

memelord Steph but by accident she's just too silly

Tim had a YouTube gameplay channel as a kid, but he lost the password and so he created a new one to post his theories. Every couple of months Steph reminds him of this and he's two seconds away from deleting it by hacking YouTube out of embarrassment, but he knows she has the videos downloaded.

sorry this is mostly just batfam lmao it's the media i have more contact with but i'll try to remake this post in the future ^^

[echosbento]

My boyfriend and I were talking about how each of the batfam make a good allegory for different queer orientations so y'all getting the list <3

Bruce: closeted homosexuality, despite the skin tight leather I actually did wind out settling on the idea that Batman is the het masking and Bruce is the true queer self

Dick: out/open homosexuality

Cass: aromantic allosexuality or transgender

Jason: demisexuality

Tim: bisexuality

Steph: pansexuality

Damian: aromantic asexuality

Duke: heteroromantic asexuality

Note this does NOT equate to my actual headcanons for their orientations, that's in the tags, it's about the way I associate their stories with the way people see and/or experience different queer/lgbt+ orientations. Reblog with your own thoughts on how you think their stories could be allegories for diff queer identities if you want! If you're cooler than me you could put some reasonings, instead of just the horrifying realization that they might've been right when they said Batman was the hetero to Bruce's homo

These are all of my batfam twitter au in order

I have the more specific things in my au in the tags🫶🏽

Superpowers for a mute Ex Idol?

Originally from Japan, ‘her’ heart and soul was put into music and dancing. From learning to sing at the tender age of 3 to breaking several bones trying to complete extreme dance routines in front of thousands at 10.

‘Her’ career ended in tragedy as ‘her’ friends became bullies and tormented ‘her’ due to winning the lead by hard work, not like them who seduced their manager to get the lead role and sabotage each other. They each accused her of either sleeping around or supporting the competition.

The final straw was when an ‘accident’ leads to ‘her’ permanently losing ‘her’ voice and fleeing to the Americans. ‘She’ decided to ‘fix’ ‘herself’ and turn into a male at 26 years old.

Has all the cheat codes to favorite games, has never been caught, and made the metal layer over ‘Ice’s’ body to blend in with mortals. Anything that needs fixed He can do it in a few seconds to 30 minutes.

Batfam genderswap Au, but they're all trans and/or nonbinary

[s-darling-art]

DUUUUUUUKE THOMAAAAAAAASS

[robintherobiner]

i have to resist the urge to make all my favourite characters trans just because I am.

Nope didn't work, anyways here's my gender hc for the batfam in my all queer au

Alfred: trans (ftm), named himself after his father

Bruce: demiboy (amab), uses Batman to indulge in the demi part of him if that makes sense

Dick: trans (mtf), named herself Fanny because she had to keep up the joke

Jason: genderfluid, either named herself Jane or CJ (Catherine Junior) for fem days

Tim: ??? (ftm. but the m is questionable. might be ftnb. no one knows.) His birthname is Timberly but they shortens it to Tim. he also forgets he's trans and so they accidentally stealth and then he goes to have a shower and gets jumpscared.

Damian: nonbinary (amab), they're the type of person to never come out and then gets annoyed when no one uses the right pronouns because they forget that not everyone can read eachothers minds

Cass: idk if there's a word for it but she uses she/it pronouns. i think growing up being treated like a weapon would effect the way she sees herself, but when she has a choice, she decides she likes it

Steph: agender (afab) peak genderlessness. uses she/her out of habit, but if she sat down and thought about it a bit more, she'd probably use she/it

Babs: trans (mtf) used a babybook to chose her name and didn't realise she'd chosen the name of her dads ex-wife until he blinked when she came out.

Duke: nonbinary (amab) uses he/she pronouns. I think he could technically be referred as dual gender or something but she prefers the label nonbinary

Made this for myself, but I'm posting it cause I feel like y'all would love it as much as I do. :>

Read in 2024:

A Lady for a Duke by Alexis Hall

❝ Damn the world. The world told you that you had to live the life it shaped for you, and you defied it. The world told me that I had to be as my father was, and I defied it, or am trying to. We can make our own world, Viola, with our own rules. ❞

[anonymousboxcar]

Ever since hearing about/watching the 2021 Awdry Christmas lecture, I’ve been thinking about how Awdry’s notes refer to Duke as both a “he” and “she.”

In my headcanon/AU, I imagine Duke hearing that typo. Maybe it’s in a monograph that’s going around. Maybe it’s still a YouTube video in that universe, streamed on a laptop for the SKR’s engines. Regardless of how, Duke blinks at being called a “she.”

The others ask if it bothers him. He tells the truth: no, it doesn’t. There’s no harm behind it. “It was simply an accident,” he says. Yet he feels a pang in his cylinders.

Soon, he realizes that he didn’t want it to be an accident.

All his life, Duke assumed that he was only a “he.” His builders and managers told him so. He did feel like a “he” a lot of the time, and he didn’t have the space or energy to probe any deeper on the MSR.

But he’s on the SR now. He knows nobody’ll kick up a fuss, trusts everyone here. So he asks them all to call him a “she” some days — on days when “he” doesn’t settle quite right.

And it feels wonderful. It’s the same joy she felt when Stuart and Falcon called her Granpuff for the first time. “I’m not one for sentimentalities,” she says one evening, “but I truly feel… fuller, in a sense.”

Later, Rheneas and Rusty suggest the idea of different lamp irons for Duke. On days when Duke’s a “he,” he can wear a lamp with a copper handle. On days when Duke’s a “she,” she can wear a lamp with a brass handle. Duke loves this, taking it up once the works have the lamps ready. It’s quick and efficient communication.

“For once, ye’re plain-speakin’,” Duncan says once he sees the lamps. But he’s smiling. Duke smiles back, chuckling at Rusty’s eye-roll.

The only real bit of angst Duke feels over this whole thing is her name. She wants to keep it because she’s very proud of it, but she worries that His Grace wouldn’t think it proper anymore. “I couldn’t bear it if he asked me to be ‘Duchess’ on those days,” he admits.

“He won’t do that,” Skarloey tells him. “And even if he asks, you don’t have to give him anything. This isn’t a train to pull, after all. It’s something entirely yours.”

“We’re with you, Granpuff,” Peter Sam says, soft and gentle.

Sir Handel sits up tall. “He’ll have to get through us.”

In the end, Sir Robert expresses happiness on Duke’s behalf. “A title is supposed to empower you. If you feel strengthened by it, emboldened by it, then I’d say it’s the right fit!”

Duke is grateful. (So are Sir Handel and Peter Sam, who shelve their plans of vengeance on Sir Robert for saying anything different.) And life goes on even brighter and richer than before.
