Reblog If Fan Fics Are Just As Valid As Fan Art

Bitches be like, ‘This is my favourite character!’ *Traumatises the ever-loving shit out of them* ‘I love them so much! They’re my precious baby!’ *Puts them through every form of torture known to man* ‘I just want them to be happy!’ *Puts them through so much shit that they have multiple mental breakdowns on screen*

It’s me, I’m bitches.

i wanna be on jason todd fans’s side so bad but the way some of y’all talk about him… y’all. he’s a victim and a victimizer. he’s justified in his anger but some of the ways he go about it ain’t. he’s correct in pointing out bruce’s flaws and “moral code” and how it affects gotham city, but what he does as red hood ain’t no better (it’s actually worse from an utrh pov). y’all (rightly) say that he can’t and shouldn’t have to be the “perfect victim”, that bruce has failed him in many ways before and after his death, which is so true. but then when jason does some actually fucked up stuff in response to that trauma y’all suddenly tryna justify that?? idk, i get stans being protective of jason todd bc a lot of his history was changed to form this narrative of him being violent and angry all the time to justify why the batfam treat him like that (ie classism). but *some* of y’all (def not all) get so weird when ppl point out his own flaws/mistakes that ain’t kissing his ass either.

Batman is great with kids. He's kind, he's gentle, he's patient. But never towards his own.

A tragedy of Bruce being a parent, stopping seeing his kids as kids.

PREACH!

I love the platonic relationships between Dick and the other members of the batfam. Dick loves so thoughroghly and I love when its portrayed as swallowing him whole, his love drowns him.

His dynamic with Bruce, the anger, the trust and the love.

His dynamic with Jason, the guilt, the relief and the love he has for him

His dynamic with Tim, the pride, the trust and love.

His dynamic with Damian is by far one of my favourites as it has the guilt of 'replacing' Bruce as the father figure while he was stuck in the time stream, it has the unbridled pride in who Damian has turned into, it has the implicit trust that comes from working together as Batman and Robin. (I am ill for these two I love them so much)

His dynamic with Steph and the development of it when Bruce is in the timestream is also really precious to me, because that's his Batgirl.

The most common denominator is the love that he holds for them all, that is his family. He will be damned if he loses them again and he loves with his whole being.

I dont know enough about his relationship with Cass or Duke to properly talk about it yet :(

(I love Dick Grayson sosososo much)

Small Rant About Dynamics (ft. Damian Wayne & Dick Grayson)

it pains me whenever people seem to think all love is romantic love, or that romantic love automatically means the love for each other is greater. Platonic love that is so great- overwhelming until it fills every corner and crevice of your heart- makes me sick. whenever fic authors potray the insane amount of love that Dick holds for Damian- more so than he holds for the others- drives me crazy. The fact that Dick would do anything, kill and hurt and die and come back, just for Damian screws with me so badly simply because i know some will take them as romantic. But in reality, Dick literally just loves Damian so much. like thats his baby and you take it romantically :( they just make me so sad and miserable but they can cure me all at once

Spoke to a gen z person the other night and apparently the young folks don't know about the very legal sites from which you can access public domain media (including Dracula, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, and other Victorian gothic horror stories)?

Like this young person didn't even know about goddamn Gutenberg which is a SHAME. I linked to it and they went "aw yiss time to do a theft" and I was like "I mean yo ho ho and all that, sure, but. you know gutenberg is entirely legal, right?"

Anyway I'm gonna put this in a few Choice Tags (sorry dracula fans I DID mention it though so it's fair game) and then put some Cool Links in a reblog so this post will still show UP in said tags lmao.

I recently finished a flower piece and have started on a duck with lake flowers thing.

Dick spent so much time climbing, hanging off things, or solving problems upside down that it became a joke with the Titans that Robins think better like that. Fast forward a couple of years and Jason threatens to shoot the next person who flips him upside down when he's scheming (Artemis gets Bizarro to do it). Tim nearly kicks Kon in the face for flipping him over. Kara does it when Stephanie's being annoying, but mercifully by the time Damian's there, no one does it to him. Still, occasionally one of the Bats will be upside down because they got caught like that or fell through a vent and have a Eureka moment and everyone will feel vindicated and it starts up all over again.

"I. Will. Never. Marry. You!" you spat, while suspended over a bubbling pit of lava in your tiny cage. But little did your captor know, your reverse psychology plan was working. Everything was falling right into place like clockwork. Until that stupid hero arrived to "save you" from your Crush.

Jason refusing to admit that Bruce and him are alike, while Bruce being oblivious to their raging similarity is the funniest case scenario ever.

Tim, waking up after a nap, and seeing a familiar big figure standing with his back to him: Hey, Jason.

Bruce, turning around, confused: Jason left an hour ago.

Tim: ...Sorry, you look like twins

Bruce, sighing: I wish. But we are not, really.

Tim: ??????

Some goon, shivering from fear: B-Batman, please, spare me!

Red Hood, leaving the shadow, even madder than before: Do I look like fucking Batman to you, man?

Goon: I-I mean, when you are standing in the darkness with your arms on your chest, and say "Now, talk"—

Red Hood, irritated: One word, and I am putting a bullet in your empty head.

Goon: Yesss, sir.

Damian, staring as everyone in the house first put cereal in the bowl, and then add milk, while Jason and Bruce demonstratively (and obliviously) do it in the opposite order in the perfect synchronisation: Why do they—

Alfred, shaking his head: Please, don't point it out, Master Damian. Either way, they will start arguing, and Master Jason will instantly teach himself to do it in the opposite way.

Damian, rolling his eyes: Whatever.

Dick: So, do you all know that Bruce and Jason refuse to admit that they are alike?

Everyone: (nod)

Dick, smirking: I fucked up Bruce's files and Jason's guns in the span of a minute...

Everyone: Why would you do that—

Bruce and Jason, from the opposite sides of manor, in the same furious voice: RICHARD JOHN GRAYSON

Dick: ...Just to demonstrate to you THIS. Now, if you don't mind, I'll go get back to Blüdhaven.
