Imagine Bruce interrogating a dangerous criminal and you just hear 12 year old Dick in the background saying 'GoLly GeE WiLiKeRs BaTmAn'

1979

Searching for all-time favorites to post is so much fun. I suddenly remembered I Saw Batman in the Launderette, and what a joy it is to hear it again after many years!

"(I Saw) Batman (In The Launderette)" by The Shapes is a memorable slice of British punk!

I love the quirky and surreal lyrics, the crisp and sharp guitars and punchy basslines.

Hey, you want a WIP, a lil drabble, a lil snippet of a thing lol?

 “Bruce, Steph isn’t sharing the sunscreen!” a teen screeched from a villa, followed by the sound of something crashing to the ground. “The books! Bruce!” 

   A man with raven colored hair, currently sitting at a table with a cup of coffee, let out a long sigh, looking to the sky as though praying for patience. “Kids,” he called. “Don’t break anything. Steph, give Jason the sunscreen. Tim,” he turned towards the teen crouched on the counter reaching towards the coffee maker. “How much coffee have you had?” 

   Blue eyes glowered over at him, hand turning from the coffee machine to the kettle sullenly. He gave a nod, taking a sip of his own drink. “Alfred is outside with Damian and Dick- and breakfast,” Bruce informed the boy, getting a tired grumble as he slunk out the door. 

   “Don’t forget to take your antibiotics!” he called after him quietly, more than slightly concerned. Tim didn’t have a spleen after all, and he hadn’t had the best resistance to sickness already. 

   Another crash echoed through the villa, followed by an enraged screech and laughter. The man sighed, looking forlornly at his coffee before getting up to see what else had been broken. A small child with orange hair careened past him, shovel and bucket clutched in one hand and a starfish with a single eye standing on her shoulder. 

   “Mornin’ Bruce!” “Hi dad!” Both exclaimed gleefully, somehow already full of energy before even a single morsel of food. Then again he wouldn’t be surprised if they snuck some sugar before. “Don’t run in the house!” he called back, even if they were already racing out the door. 

   That was seven kids accounted for- unless Jason and Steph murdered each other. In which case that was five.

do you have any good tim fic recs? without him being massively woobified or fanonised

tim centric fics are not something i usually read (though that IS changing recently) BUT i do indeed have some recs that to me, personally, really encapsulate his character and i think about like all the time. a good tim drake fic can truly change the chemicals in your brain FOREVER.

woobified tim and i have personal beef with each other that will withstand all the generations to come, so i will not be touching him with a ten foot pole. do not fear.

TIM DRAKE CENTRIC FIC RECS ON AO3

Talk To Me by A_Canceled_Stamp

Bruce and Tim have a long-overdue heart-to-heart

MY NOTES: ohhh just the bruce and tim fic ever to exit. i reread this often when i just need a little comfort after things are rough, because it is so well written and i will never get over how sweet it is. happy tears in my eyes forever. bruce and tim is a dynamic that is so special.

lift this curse of bein' seventeen by arguablysomaya

When Tim first dreamed of becoming Robin, he’d been admiring Dick. When he became Red Robin, hurt and alone, he’d thought about the person Jason used to be. But after years of watching his older sister, Tim can’t help but reflect on how much he respects Cass and what she stands for.

As Batgirl, as Orphan, as Black Bat— as Cass, the woman that could face down pure evil and still sneak into Tim’s apartment to pull the laptop out of his hands and shove him into bed.

Or: In which Tim Drake gets a new name.

MY NOTES: oh my GOD. THE TIM DRAKE MOVES ON FROM ROBIN FIC EVER. i never once considered black bat tim but after reading this i genuinely have ascended to a new plain of tim drake understanding. not to mention wonderful tim and cass writing. i love their duo so much. (also!!! asian tim!!!)

by any other name would smell as sweet by misspickman

A dare and a couple of offhand comments set off a domino effect, sending Tim down one or two identity crises. Apparently everyone thinks it's time for him to do some self-reflection.

MY NOTES: i have said this so many times in these recs that it should be a given now to always expect a trans character fic as well. trans girl tim fic u are SO REAL. a friend recommended this to me and i read it all while standing up for a good half an hour unable to do anything else. changed my life forever. good lord

a soft place to land by unchosenone

Tim rubs the back of his head, trying to affect a joking tone. “I knew I should’ve just gone for the new escrima sticks.”

Dick is ready to be a good big brother to his grieving little bro. Tim flips the script.

MY NOTES: dick and tim are truly the brothers of all time i tear up just thinking about what they once had and everything they've lost. this fic is not about that though. this fic is about what a caring little brother tim is.

“That wasn’t—” he stared at his bike’s display through fuzzy eyes. “I mean, Bernard’s not my—”

“It’s okay, Tim,” Steph said gently.

The comm felt like a knife in his ear.

“I’m not,” Tim said.

He didn’t know if he was saying "I’m not gay" or "I’m not okay," was pretty sure nobody else did either, and the next thing Tim knew, his comm was a crushed pile of plastic and tech in his clenched fist.

MY NOTES: first and foremost, if you are a fan of timber you NEED to check out this author. the best timber fics out there. this fic is especially special to me and i love the way the comfort was handled. seeing tim traverse through different parts of the queer experience will always be important to me.

The Birthday Test happened on Tim's 16th birthday.

Tim was around 17 (i think) when he went searching for Bruce in the timestream.

Do we think that the reason Tim was so adamant about Bruce being alive despite having almost no evidence (omg, one of his relatives looks similar to him? that's so wild, its almost as if they're RELATED) was because of the lingering trauma The Birthday Test had on him?

MONDAY MATINEE MUSIC VIDEO—“Tiny Goddess” by Tim Andrews a.k.a Chris Andrews. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hNK7BWJmuLs

This fantasy piece about a petite woman was created in 1967 by the British psychedelic pop band Nirvana (not to be confused with the American band of the 90s). It folded in with the subgenre “baroque pop”—when classical music forms and instrumentation are integrated with psychedelic rock, championed by The Beach Boys, Beatles, Bee Gees, Left Banke, Moody Blues, Procol Harum, etc. Tim picked up the thread in 1970 with harpsichord, dense orchestration, and vocals soaring high in the mix. It was produced by Tony Hall and David Mackay (Gene Pitney, Cliff Richard, Bonnie Tyler) and arranged by Paul Buckmaster—the great composer and orchestrator who’d soon go on to work with Elton John. This was recorded at Abbey Road. Chris recalls, “It was a memorable session because we did everything in one take. That doesn’t happen too often.” (Download the remastered “Tiny Goddess” here: https://timchrisandrews.bandcamp.com/track/tiny-goddess)...

somebody tell me to stop ordering tons of books when i already have plenty to read

[bratfamily]

I was listening to Eminem and I was thinking how funny it would be if instead of becoming a crime lord, Red Hood was a rapper.

Dick listening to Jason making fun of him as Robin for almost a whole song: 😮

[catcr4ft]

I don’t know which is funnier, that Gwen has a weird stoner cousin or that she’s trans and had a weird stoner phase that she refuses to ever talk about
