Suburban Batfam
Batfam goes undercover to infiltrate the community of a suburban neighbourhood in hopes of discovering a secret society
Everyone (mainly Tim and Dami) argue over who gets the biggest room
Bruce gets it because it’s the master suite
When the fam moves in, their next-door neighbours give them cookies
The neighbours seem a little too nice, so nobody touches them at first
Except for Tim, who wasn’t there when it happened
He thought Damian was a little too eager when he offered some to him, but he ate them anyway
“Why are you eating the cookies? I thought you said they were too suspicious.”
“I offered them to Drake the other day and he hasn’t keeled over yet, so I deduced that they were safe for consumption.”
The neighbours across the street are very nosey and (in damian’s opinion) ask too many questions
He’s as suspicious of them as they are curious about the batfam
When asked about why their dad isn’t seen much, the boys shrug and say that he works the night shift and saves lives
Damian feeds all of the neighbourhood cats, strays or otherwise.
He slowly amasses an army of cats
Selina approves of it. Bruce? Not so much.
He still pays for the cat food though
Jason acquires a dog somehow
Dick feels like he takes better care of it and that it should be his
Tim disagrees
It’s still up for debate
Damian eventually convinces Bruce to let him bring Titus over as well
Duke and the girls come over every other weekend for family night
They receive noise complaints every time
Due to a fight between Dami and Tim, the tv is broken and mario kart is officially banned from the house
One of Damian’s cats has a litter of kittens and everyone secretly thinks they’re adorable (except Dick, who readily says it to anyone who will listen)
Jason sneaks off to play with them when nobody’s looking
Bruce is no better
Nobody really knows how to cook except for Dick
It’s more like he can boil things and use the oven without catching anything on fire, but still
Jay can too, but nobody needs to know that
And maybe Bruce, but he’s too busy to cook
Dami can only cook eggs
He tries
Alfred visits every now and then to make sure nobody’s burnt down the house and drops off various sweets
His consideration is greatly appreciated
Tim isn’t allowed anywhere near the oven since the 2nd time he caught it on fire
Tim befriends a group of moms and speed walks with them every morning to hear about the latest gossip
Sometimes it helps with the investigation
Sometimes there are rumours about Bruce
Sometimes they’re true
Tim laughs them off while internally freaking out
“Did you hear?” -Kelly
“Hear what?” -Janet
“There’s a rumour going around that *Bruce Wayne* is living in our neighbourhood.” -Kelly
“No way!” -Janet
“Yes way!“ -Kelly
"Heheheh, what a crazy rumour, right? There’s *no way* somebody like Bruce would move to our modest neighbourhood.” -Tim, sweating nervously
They were invited to a cook-out pool party once.
Somehow, Jason caught the pool on fire
Never again were they invited to such an occasion.
Everybody keeps forgetting that Alfred isn’t around and consequently, forget to do chores
One time the dishes piled up so high, they collapsed on poor Damian
Bruce had to devise a chore chart to make sure everybody did their part in keeping the house relatively nice looking
Dick dog sat for one of their neighbours once and their daughter watched him through their security cameras.
She has a crush on him now & is a little stalker-y.
modern au mei isnt actually a princess her dad (scar) just calls her that cause she’s one of those little girls who wants nothing more than to be ariel from the little mermaid. you know those little girls who wear full on costume disney princess dresses with jeans underneath to the grocery store and its fine
forget slow burn romance, give me slow burn found family. give me enemies to friends to siblings. tired, weary old mentors learning to live again for their plucky young apprentices. heroes sharing apartments after world saving adventures because they’re so used to living with each other. dramatic “oh shit” moments where one gets kidnapped and the other realizes “god, that’s my kid.” i want to sit and watch in agony for thirty chapters while two idiots slowly adopt each other, someone get on it
I finally read the The Target. For anyone not familiar with this title, it heralds back to the Officer Grayson days. Dick is setup to take the fall for some dirty cops of the Blüdhaven PD and adopts the identity The Target to clear his name name for Reasons.
I came across this gem:
That’s right. They practiced throwing guns. As confirmed by Nightwing (1996) #33:
It called to mind another gun-throwing identity of Dick Grayson’s.
Flash forward to the New 52.
That’s right, Agent 37. Was is pure coincidence Agent 8 mentioned guns and targets? Or was it an Easter Egg?
Who could forget his iconic theme song?
His fellow agents may have given him grief over his choice of gun handling, but apparently Dick had lots of practice hurling those bad boys.
Finding these references is like undercovering buried treasure to me. I get way to much pleasure from it. Has anyone else found any good links from the old to the new like this?
Edward Elric: *breathes*
Roy Mustang: I would die for you.
Riza Hawkeye: Can you stop w/ this shit honestly Colonel.
Also Riza Hawkeye: ...
*glances at Ed for like 0.2 seconds*
*whispers* I would die for you
The Hollow - Mira
Jason: I like big butts and I cannot lie, no other brother can deny-
Tim: For a great low rate you can get online, go to The General and save some time!
BOI
I watched a play through of this and it was a Lot better than I expected. ;v; Recently, I got Photoshop CC and wanted to play around with the brushes so I drew these two! It’s Kratos and his smol son Atreus. <3
And I do realize that I accidentally swapped Krato’s hands: he’s supposed to hold the axe in his right and shield on the left, but I flipped the canvas a lot and got confused lol.
Can we please stop the White Feminist™ idea that naked = empowered?
Because I had to watch the Muslim girl in my history class lucture the class on Islam’s treatment of women and why she wears her hijab to feel closer to god, because some new girl in our class tried to coerce her into taking it off, and then proceeded to try to take it off her.
I made sure she was alright after class and she told me she’s used to it. I. Got. Pissed. Because this sweet girl is used to other people trying to rip her hijab off. I’m not Muslim, but from what I understand, that’s like being used to people trying to rip your shirt off of you.
Also, this idea doesn’t just threaten and offend Muslim women and girls. Because a lot of women and afab people don’t like being naked. It’s not empowering to them, it’s demeaning. For example, I don’t like being naked, because I just don’t feel comfortable with it. But still, my family still forces me to wear bikinis to the beach and thinks I’m self conscious just because I don’t want to wear the least amount of clothes possible.
So, in summary:
Destroy the White Feminist™ idea that Naked = Empowered
Destroy the White Feminist™ idea that Naked = Empowered
Destroy the White Feminist™ idea that Naked = Empowered
Destroy the White Feminist™ idea that Naked = Empowered
Destroy the White Feminist™ idea that Naked = Empowered
Iconic.
