ANGST TIME

Soooooo, hear me out

An au where thay all survive to the end and everyone is still bodily intact except kdj isnt kdj

like by all means it technically is him but at the same time its not

Picture this:

Finally on the very last scenario, all they have to do now is kill it, the unnamed,unknown,creator and destroyer, then it'll all be OVER. But then, out of nowhere it starts charging up an attackin typical kdj fashion, he lunges head first into

I need more people to acknowledge that bruce is not gonna be a great parent, but i'll be damned if he doesn't try

His parents are dead, and as far as I've seen, the only real, not-explicitly-toxic relationship he has is with Alfred, his butler

and remember that, at least for a long while, as much as Alfred cared, he still drew a very clear (sometimes limiting) line between them as butler-and-master

so no Bruce does not know what he is doing with any of his relationships, familial or romantical

and no he probably will never really learn

he's going to make absoulutely horrible, relationship-ending choices, but can you truly look me in the eye and say that any batman does not truly love and value every single relationship he is in (asides from when dc butchers everyone's personalities)

so I need to see more fics like this,

a bruce who tries and fails,

who does not know how to deal with any of this,

and so hides behind a mask or a doof smile, uses his persona to try to deal with it, to try to cope

a broken batman who doesn't know what's wrong with him but desperately wants to fix it, only, if only, just to maintain whatever semblance of love he gets from his friends, his kids

maybe that's why he has so many, desperately searching for any warmth in the innocent's child eyes

fanfic writers where you at?

Dear ORV fans, readers and writers;

I'm sorry for when i said to my friends "I want a real angsty story, no happy endings just pain". I was young and stupid and naive and so so innocent. I have now realized the error of my ways so please PLEASE give kim com their their happy ending (ill even accept a side story impossible ending or an official AU, please just ANYTHING)

A fellow reader and kdj fragment

What I think would be the most 'impressive' thing about humans

So I've read a lot of funny and intriguing ones out there, absolute gold, BUT I noticed that most of them compare things like our food tolerance, endurance, etc, so I wanted to bring in this take I've had cooking up for the past few days.

Has anyone ever considered aliens' reaction to how different we all are? Like look around at most species even on earth, they are mostly the same and vary only slightly in size, shape, colours, etc, in fact, its more strange to find one that is immediately distinguishable from the rest of its closest animal relatives (e.g for most people orange cats look like orange cats).

Think about it, usually only trained professionals can tell apart two same-species animals, even the animals themselves identify themselves through, like smell or smth

But for humans? no.

It's much weirder to find someone who looks so much like you or someone you know? Over 8.062 billion people and yet how likely is it to find someone who is your exact height? has your exact face? same exact posture? even exactly the same likes as you?

Like really let that sink in............ 8.062 billion people and yet it's confirmed that NO-ONE is almost exactly like you? Even people that just LOOK like you, your doppleganger, is roughly only 7 per person?

Wierd.

art

il use it for refernce for a story later

Hello rapaziada i drew the smilling critters in cute outfits that i think it would suit them :)

reblog if you’re a writer who’s very terrible at responding to comments from your readers, but has read them all and loves and appreciates each and every single one of them very dearly

Batman Orphan-Spotting radar

So i just read this nice peice of art ft. supes, batman and spidey. (link here: https://www.tumblr.com/arandomao3user/783454212655857664/batman-be-like-orphan-spotted?source=share)

Very cool, very nice

HOWEVER

I read the reblog reponse and i DIED

So now I hc that Batman can just immediately tell if you're an orphan or not, he can even narrow it down to when or how you lost your parents.

At first no one thinks much of it (not even batman himself, but then again he was never going to pay it attention anyway)

UNTIL

this new hero (dimension-shenanigans, they're gone in like a week) who looks like they've gone through the horrors, like they single-handedly have every single cliche superhero backstory ever, is staying at the watchtower so they can get help getting home.

And Batman walks in, stares at him for 6 minutes 47 seconds, and just says like,"do your parents know you're a hero"

And like every is in baffled confusion

because like how could you ask this CLEARLY ORPHANED CHILD, who looks like they have never known human warmth, whether their parents know their flying about fighting bad guys?

and in that split second of silence the hero just goes

"My mum knows but I haven't told my dad yet and I don't know how much longer my mum can cover for me"

and everyone is just like "........wtf?????"

"what do you men 'your mum knows' isn't she dead"

and the hero and batman both simultaneously wip their heads towards them with looks of utter disgust and bafflement

"no?..... my mum and dad are very much alive, thank you very much"

"why would you think they're parents are dead???"

and everyone else is just like

"???????"

Or better yet the exact inverse

A bright cheery child, who looks like joy and innocence personified appears

And batman just pulled them into a hug "Oh you poor innocent child.... it must have been so hard watching your parents die at just 7 and a half years old...."

And the child just breaks down and starts sobbing, they narrate their backstory and

Oh.

Oh my god.

In conclusion batman would 1000% have orpan sensing abilities (and yes he did adopt the second child but he had to return them... for reasons)

We need more 'normal' Duke

I want Duke to be the 'normal one' of the batfam and wayne fam

But like, its a lie, specially crafted and maintained by the Duke himself

After like settling in he noticed the rumours and decided to just double-down

In his hero persona, he acts nice, friendly, chipper, sane but like, he will not hesitate to snap a random muggers neck (possibly paralyzing them) then just fortnight dance on their barely conscious body.

Anytime a civillian catches him, he stops, comes up close to them, whispers "no one will believe you" then uses his power to disappear(people are in psch wards now) and sometimes he'll just target particular people, maybe that one dude that bullied him before he got adopted or some random criminal (he appears with only his head and just stares at them through their windows)

As a foster-wayne, he acts normal around the cameras-mostly

He will just randomly lore drop the craziest thing like

"I remember the time I attempted to cook Damian in my sleep"

and then never speak of the incident again

its even worse when someone else brings up smth weird

reporter- "sir duke is it true you once attempted to sacrifice your brother time on top of a *checks notes* plane?"

duke- "ah yes *looks directly into the camera and give the most detailed answer (as in he will give you the exact humidity of the air but conveniently does not mention how he got on top of a moving plane or survived)* it was a very funny afternoon"

It gives everyone whiplash and he loves it

the problem is

i have like 2-3 other poly ships :'''')

*eyes batman and tim pointedly* i can't have too many

should i just make it 3 polys..................

I CANNOT CHOOSE!!! HELP!!!!

and sometimes i get so lost that I drag both of us down

both me and the pen

unable to move or express

despite both of us wanting to scream

a friend one day, a hated foe the next

it brings me both pleasure and pain

and helps me drown out my sorrows with its own

keeping me locked in its addictive grasp

unable to move

unable to breathe

and yet time and time again

i will pick up the pen once more

and straighten out my laid down paper

and i will smile

Writing has become a sanctuary for me. A time where, in solitude and contemplation, I can be myself.

Sometimes, I place the words gently on the page, with love and care.

Other times, I scribble with hurried strokes in anger, or write big, dripping letters in sorrow.

These pages know me well. The pen helps me know myself.
