Motivations:

Bart Allen (Impulse), Kon-El (Superboy), Greta Hayes (Secret), & Cassandra Cain (Batgirl)

Three kids who missed out on a childhood. Three lab escapees. Evil family member havers. They all have different relationships to killing also. Cass at one end and Greta at the other. Plenty of reasons to be close and reasons to be in conflict as well. Exploring the nature of predetermined paths based on your circumstances. Thawne, Luthor, Cain and being sacrificed.

Dick Grayson (Nightwing) & Donna Troy (Troia)

THE duo of all time. Also @lomakes has amazing cover designs for a series about them.

a bottom-tier autistic experience is being told throughout your entire childhood that you are just an overthinker when it comes to social situations and later finding out that your friends did, in fact, hate being around you and tried to communicate that through weird little hints

Hal: "Have one of your enemies died or something, I've never seen you smile like that."

Bruce, putting his phone away: "No Alfred just sent me a dick pic."

Hal, frozen in place, seriously reconsidering his thoughts on rich people and their butlers: "That's... nice of him."

Bruce, cursing his kids for normalizing "Dick pics" in their house as a way to refer to photographs of his eldest: "It's not like that."

Hal, holding up his hands and avoiding eye contact: "I think I preferred it back when I overshared and you told me to keep things professional."

Batfam getting gradually more suspicious of Tim’s time as Robin as they uncover various weird traumas.

Batsibs: haha you’re just like Bruce, Tim, so paranoid.

Tim: did you guys not pick that up from the Alfred death test?

Batsibs: …the what?

Tim: you know, when Bruce gets you to question reality and everyone you trust as a lesson? Mine was on my 16th birthday but I don’t know if it’s that’s the year he did it with you guys 🙃

they’re children. Not ‘young people’. Not ‘minors’. Not ‘adolescents’. They are CHILDREN. TEENAGERS. TODDLERS. BABIES. Stop dehumanizing Palestinian children so you don’t have to feel guilty about being complicit in genocide.

My favorite version of fanon Stephanie's relationship with the batfam is where she's just, not a sibling but still a batkid? If that makes sense???

She is totally member of the batfam but she dated Tim so she can't call Tim her brother and thus calling the other batkids siblings or Bruce dad will be weird. She's usually best friends with Tim and Cass tho. Plus both her parents are alive.

As a vigilant, her direct superior in fics tends to be Oracle who also falls under the dated a batkid dynamic but more importantly Oracle does not work under batman. So she tends to run parallel to the others in the vigilant family tree.

But Bruce pays her tution/pocket money. She spends alot of her time at the Manor. Her favorite food is included in the meal plan by Alfred. She gets to pick a movie during movie night. She can walk upto Bruce and just ask for stuff and get them. Bruce has the same trust fund for her as he has for the other batkids.

She still isn't his daughter and she won't ever call him dad. She is still a member of the family.
