My favourite part of Dick Grayson as a character is that he is never afraid of Bruce.

Like, Jason has his fear of disappointing him, Tim is a bit intimidated and has his hero worship, Damian fears that Bruce’ll kick him out the way he thinks Talia did, but Dick?

Dick is so unconcerned about Bruce at every possible moment. Even the earliest comics had Dick calling Bruce lame to his face. Dick works with Bruce and his partner for years and they understand each other on a deep level and Dick multiple times calls Bruce a fucking square.

Dick does not tell Bruce anything. He does not write home. If Bruce wasn’t in the room with him when Dick got called to go somewhere, I’m pretty sure Dick would not have informed Bruce that he was even leaving, let alone where he was going. The Teen Titans joined the Peace Corps, they were in Washington for at least a few days being trained, and Bruce finds out that Robin joined the Peace Corps from a newspaper. Dick does not tell him anything.

Dick and Bruce have such a fascinating relationship to me because Dick really doesn’t treat Bruce as his dad so much as he treats him like a particularly obnoxious older brother. Bruce treats Dick like his little baby bird who he cares about and doesn’t want to get hurt, but Dick is over there like “ugh, Bruce is so overdramatic” while he nearly drowns for the fifth time.

In early Teen Titans, there’s no question that Robin is physically the weakest member. Aqualad and Wonder Girl both have super strength, Kid Flash’s speed means that he doesn’t need super strength, but Robin is by far the easiest to capture. He gets caught very consistently through the early issues, albeit people can only catch him if they take him off guard, but it’s a lot easier to catch him off guard in early comics. Robin is the brains of the group, the others look to him for direction and depend on him to make plans that will work and panic when Robin gets nabbed because what will they do without Robin??

Robin gets captured a lot in early Batman comics too. Robin is the ultimate damsel, but he’s never really in very much distress? Like, Bruce and the Teen Titans are distressed, but Robin just looks maybe a bit surprised and bored. Robin never seems to take his own mortality into account when he does things, meanwhile literally everyone else does.

Dick only ever really gets annoyed with Bruce. He bever gets mad at his teammates, even when they question his ability. For the most part, Dick doesn’t even respond when they underestimate him to his face. I have no idea what’s going on in Dick’s head, but he isn’t a part of Aqualad and Kid Flash finding each other and him annoying in their first team ups and he never gets upset when they don’t believe in him.

Then, on the other hand, Bruce calls the music Dick is listening to noise, and Dick immediately is annoyed. Dick and Bruce having a turbulent relationship is more apparent later on in the comics, but Bruce is truly the only one in all the galaxies who gets under Dick’s skin as much as he does.

And it’s funny because fandom likes to paint Dick as bitter that Bruce didn’t adopt him, while I think Dick would have blown his top if Bruce even tried to adopt him. Dick had parents, he never views Bruce as a parental figure. Don’t get me wrong, Dick loves Bruce. Bruce does so much for Dick and Bruce is protective of him and Bruce is open about his affection, but Dick just doesn’t view him as his father.

I really think Dick views Bruce as more like a guard dog than a father. He talks so casually to Bruce, but he’s more formal to other adults. He complains about Bruce not trusting him, but doesn’t care when his teammates don’t trust him either. He views the rich billionaire vigilante who can take down a god in a fight as fucking lame.

Their relationship is amazing. They get along great. They’re a perfect duo, they work in tandem, they’re absolutely unstoppable together. If Bruce talks too much Dick will roll his eyes. They trust each other with their life. Dick is never telling Bruce anything. Bruce says “I guess I can spare Robin for a minute” and Dick is like “I would be perfectly content to never return home for the rest of my days.”

Of all the Robins, Dick is absolutely the one who respects Bruce the least. He loves the guy, but he just canNOT take him seriously.

(Do you think it was the time Bruce sent a box of bats to someone? Or the times Bruce gets captured and has to be rescued by his damsel side-kick? Or the way Bruce is like an overprotective mother, coming this close to reminding Robin to wash behind his ears? Or the way Bruce lets Robin say whatever he wants and never gets upset or offended or even hurt?

Or, maybe, Batman tripped on his cape once, and Dick just can never forget.)

Little snippet from a vashwood reincarnation comic that I do not have nearly fully fleshed out in my head with written down text that would surely be 50+ pages and which I will probably get to draw never aaaah

[xxplastic-cubexx]

it doesnt need to be said but its genuinely so funny how at-the-hip charles and erik are in krakoa like they really had the green light- the OBLIGATION- to be as obnoxiously close to each other as possible and abused that right to the fullest extent

Random Damian Wayne Headcanon

Does anyone else get the feeling that, in all seriousness, Damian would be an attention- demanding drunk? Because I am completely convinced that Drunk Damian acts exactly like a cat that desperately wants attention but doesn't want anyone to know that they desperately want attention. (I take no criticism on this, btw.)

Another little sketch of this politely-speaking robot that is not up to anything malicious. It's very likely his usual formalities, but Juno was also talking to a higher-ranking Unit than him that he ends up apologizing twice. It makes me wonder what the relations, however much there was, between him and Trigger could've been like.

. . . And also, I was focused on Juno's sweet little face and mouth shape again. When Juno is not smiling, his mouth still appears very soft in a way that makes me want to gently press a finger to it.

TALIAN AVENTURINE x OC SAVE MEEEEEEEE

lil “comic” thing below/ooc mayhaps

"Go ahead and kill yourself. See if you could even do that."

Of course. These Talian brutes have no ears for sweet words, nor can they read... What use is there trying to convince them otherwise?

Perhaps I just need a moment to breathe. The air here... I despise it.

As much as I yearn for the sandy air of Sigonia's desert, this cruel reminder of home is too harsh.

The desert is familiar, painfully so. Yet it feels distant. Maybe because back then, I had a family, and now I'm surrounded by ruins.

Oh, the stars, how they shone so brightly. The Sigonian stars... they aren’t that different from these ones. The smell here had a stench, but I will grow used to it.

I do miss the sight of stars that shone this brightly. I do miss the desert wind. I do miss that night sky untainted by the artificial lights. I do miss the ranges of plains... I have everything that Sigonia once had here. Except for the obvious.

Mother used to tell me stories about the stars, recalling tales of gods and Mother Fenge. And my sister, that lively soul, she’d always try to find the brightest one to claim it as her own. The Kakava festival… How the nights used to be filled with laughter, songs and that sense of belonging.

Now what’s that but a memory that slips further each night?

I miss them. I miss her most. I missed everything.

…

They were all taken from me so brutally… I do wonder sometimes if Mother Fenge would let them see the world through her eyes when they’ve gone to reunite with her. Maybe they can still see me, begging me to come with them…

But they’d never say that. They want my blood to pulse eternally. They were more cruel than I thought.

Then I was, promising I’ll make them proud. But here I am, collared in this forsaken place once again.

…

The stars above mock me with their indifference. They shine just as brightly, but they were twice as cold.

Perhaps, somewhere in this cruel expanse, I can find a way to honor-

Ah, yes. I nearly forgot. That whiny biker is still tagging along.

one fist fight later

“…”

“Your cooking isn’t bad. For 2 tomatoes and a rotten lizard.”

“You should be thankful I let you eat.”

His tail was clearly wagging after that compliment.

“……”

‘Thanks.’

they said at the same time, accidentally

literally them

I'm so fascinated by the extra senses speedsters have and what the world must look like to them because of those extra senses.

They have extremely localized electrolocation: meaning that they can 'see' energy if it's close to them, they are touching it or if it's extremely strong. So Wally can see the electricity firing in his wife's brain when he holds her hand. Bart can see the electricity coursing from the wall, into the TV and gaming console, before swirling around inside the controller in his hands. When the dust and smoke is too thick to rely on vision, Barry can still see the energy in Hal's ring, even from a block away.

They also sense vibrations. They can hear them, if you will. Anything they touch thrums a different note. Different dimensions sing in a different key, a just off pitch. Some objects, like an office chair or a blade of grass, sing so quietly that they have to be close and really focus to hear it. Others, like a moving train or a pot of boiling water, scream so loudly that they can hear them from quite a distance away.

Yet that's not all. They can also feel time. Like trained scuba divers feeling the flow of the current, the ripples as they disrupt the calm. They can feel the jetstreams of nearby time travelers and they can trace it back to its source with startling accuracy. If time is an ocean then we only perceive it drop by drop. They can see how it stretches out, in every direction, every place that drop could flow.

The final sense they have is their ability to sense the speedforce. Every speedforce user is known to them, is felt, is seen. Regardless of distance, they can always see the little stars dotting the horizon, each one the barely contained supernova of their friends and family. They can see the speedforce as well as it flows and cracks and bubbles around them.

It's fascinating to me that they have all these extra senses. We see them casually mentioned but we never really see what that would look like. What this influx of stimulation would do to them.

Ngl it's weird finishing the Knuckles tv show and going to tumblr about it only for people (even who I consider bigger name fans) who also watched the entire show to claim that it "confirmed Knuckles Wachowski"

Like

I'm sorry

Did you somehow miss the part in the last episode where Knuckles had a whole montage of hanging with the Whipple family and Wade and saying "home" or something?
