dick and tim gossiping about bruce. neither of them considered bruce as their dad; more like the weird younger uncle who used to babysit them
you know, realistically, tim brings up a good point. i mean, he wasn't just a lonely child boo hoo or anything, it's implied that his only present family would up and leave semi frequently to the point that it was normalized for tim, who has a VERY strong moral compass.
this panel sequence is just... so much. first of all, it hits the awkward part of tim drake just right. deny it all you want, the boy blurts dumb shit kinda often lol.
then, there is the bond between the two boys. they may not be bruce's sons at that point, but they certainly do act like brothers. plus, that connection to bruce that tim has. man, it produces some good angst.
BAM. comic book proof of tim being left alone. i will never doubt another fanfic writer again. okay, that's a lie.
anyone else laughing at how tim's age makes zero sense?
can you imagine working with someone who you've idolized since the age of seven and have them not smile at you for months? smiling is like the bare minimum for any friendliness or openness whatsoever. i doubt he literally never smiled, but what tim says suggests that the environment wasn't quite easy for a while.
also tim being starved for praise is always what i wanna see. sorry fluff fans.
it is obligation. it's unhealthy and destructive, but it's his obligation.
nice
this feels very progressive for the time it was made. i really enjoyed this. you really get a feel for ariana and tim and how they are just children.
i think this was handled very well.
return of tim, the drama queen. dislocated his thumb to free himself
i was thinking, 'oh poor steph has to deal with his dramatic tendencies', but then i remembered she was just as dramatic
it's honestly so cool that these two have deep conversations frequently on paper
crash landing!
tim gets a bruce wayne shadow when he acts like batman. that's some incredible and impressive detail
JUNE 2022
Created a collection of all the fics I’ve recc’d this year. Please find it under: The Batfamily 2022 Collection on Archive of Our Own – and if you’re an author I’ve recommended in the past, please check your collection invites, you may find a little invitation there.
This month also marks six months of consecutive Batfamily recommendations on my blog! 🎉 I hope to continue strong into next year! Thank you all for liking and reblogging my recommendations, it means so much to me!
Lastly, it was inevitable that the fics of my own this month would include The First Right Choice and Asimov’s Integral - as both these stories were brought to life through the incredible artwork of Ten ( @whizradio ) and Ky ( @ky-landfill ). Please go check out their blogs, they are two incredibly talented artists and I cannot thank them enough for their beautiful, incredibly humbling art.
