Prompt 117

Bruce does not enjoy magic. In fact he’s absolutely horrible at it, to the point it’s better that he avoids it in general. Getting thrown into some sort of summoning circle bullshit was not helping him feel any better about it either. 

At least he isn’t dead… probably. He might be surrounded by green and there might be a massive entity sitting on a throne, but he isn’t dead yet. Even if the cult had been rambling about sacrificing ‘the dark knight to the dark king’. 

… His kids are definitely going to kill him, but there are small children peeking out at him from within the being’s cape. Who seem happy enough, while the… king looks exhausted in a familiar way. Well. Maybe it’s his own parental exhaustion talking, but they can’t be too bad if their kids are happy to be there. 

#dcxdp #dpxdc #prompts #Pariah feeling someone sacrificing a human: Oh thank fuck some goddamn help- #Bruce is now Pariah’s & Clockwork’s buddy who babysits the lil godlings sometimes #They all get together sometimes to complain about their PTA rivals #Pariah is relieved for help in how to human for the half-human children’s sake #He takes up gardening to help with his control issues since he can make his gardens look however he like and obsess over making sure everyt #Clockwork and Alfred become tea and gossip buddies #Pariah: How will we get our half human children's human side taken care of #Why yes Bruce's kids did make fun of him when he came back with a couple of kids #They don't belive him at first when he explains he's just babysitting #Until the parents come to pick said children up #pariah dark x clockwork

🦇🐥 Batman and Robin (2023) #6 rambling and screaming crying throwing up about a single page

so right off the bat, i'm adding these panels to the Ms. Hall is Shush conspiracy board - the first suspect in mind for who could train Zach would be Principal Stone, but Ms. Hall is conveniently placed in the "teacher's pet" panel HMM

Damian's history with Zsasz is mentioned again! any further reference to Streets of Gotham ends here once Damian and Zsasz face off, but i'm not complaining when Damian gets to kick his ass again LOL

AAH SUCH A COOL PANEL!! i rambled enough about Cizmesija's impact shots last time, but this is just. SO COOL... DAMIAN'S POSE, the light streak from the eyes, the jittery effect at the point of impact from Zsasz's front to his back - LIKE DAMN, YOU KNOW THIS KID HIT HIM HARD

ok i was gonna shut up about the impact shots but to accompany the Robin panel, THIS SICK BATMAN PANEL!! THE SPEED LINES ALONG HIS WHOLE ARM, the hilarious waves of that hit going through Zsasz's face asdfg, the cowl and cape silhouette in the back - and the KRAK SFX!! it's got a bit of that gritty splatter effect Cizmesija uses so either another smooth choice by letterer Steve Wands or extra kudos to Cizmesija!!

i thought the action would be my favorite aspect of this issue, but it was THE EXPRESSIONS. from Damian's frustration here (his glare and his seriously gritted teeth) to the page that brought me to my knees lol

a breakdown of my breakdown for this page:

DAMIAN'S WIDE EYED EXPRESSION AT BRUCE'S COMPLIMENT, THE SHINE IN HIS EYES!! what gets me about Bruce’s praise is how specific it is, especially pointing out Damian’s storytelling 😭 Bruce already knows Damian’s technical art skills are amazing!! storytelling through comics is a whole different skill and Bruce recognized that!! 😭 no wonder Damian is so touched, Bruce is paying attention 😭

HE LOOKS SO OVERWHELMED BY THE VALIDATION FROM HIS FATHER - THE TENTATIVE SMILE!! BEFORE HE BREAKS OUT INTO A FULL GRIN!! 😭

HOW HE BURSTS ABOUT HIS PROCESS AND THEN THE LIL ASIDE OF “I love those…” HE'S SO CAUGHT UP IN HIS JOY PLEASE I’M COUGHING UP BLOOD THAT'S SO CUTE 😭 happy Damian is my weakness i mean LOOK AT HIM OH MY GOD the wide smile his lil fist and the pointing, he cannot contain himself!! 😭

his art is so fun, i'm glad we get to see more of this!! the shadow of Bruce and Damian over the pages is a neat touch too! Damian expanding from realistic renders to this manga style on top of these amazing comic layouts…Bruce is right his growth is crazy 😭

to add on to Damian's progress from Bruce's eyes - Detective Comics (2016) #1003 was the last time Bruce acknowledged Damian's art!

the return of Flatline!! for this last bit, i'll be referencing Lazarus Planet: The Next Evolution (2023) since that's Nika's last notable appearance!

Nika calling Damian out on not contacting her asdfg she mentions something similar before, and i could only imagine it's been months since then considering that issue came out a whole year ago 😭

besides Nika meeting Bruce, the most important thing that needs to be addressed is if Damian's aware that she resurrected Ra's and finally, what they could have discussed??

ending note, upgrade from earbuds in Batman and Robin (2011) to headphones haha wired earphones only!!

#rambling #i woke up the next day wondering if i was overreacting about that one page from a sleep deprived haze #i looked at it again and wailed bro CIZMESIJA'S EXPRESSIONS FOR EACH DAMIAN IN THAT PAGE MAKES ME INSANE #regarding Nika the 'oh SO not the end' at the end of that Lazarus Planet story had me on the edge of my seat forever LOL #like what do you mean she's now capable of resurrecting people from literal ashes and Ra's wants to work with her or smth #and then we never learn more asdfgh bring her to Alfred's grave hello?? #if anyone's curious about Nika i'd recc that Lazarus Planet issue! it's nice to hear a bit more of her voice! and how she likes kpop LOL

Was re-reading Batman Incorporated these days and,

Look how tiny Damian looked next to Jason!! His angry pout!!

Baby acting like a baby.

LET HIM BE JUST A KID AGAIN

#I have a lot of problems with Batman Incorporated but honestly #Damian is not one of them #seeing him playing with Alfred the Cat and then seconds later saying how he was just a paw to his mother #like it's the most normal thing in the world... #he's just a kid he shouldn't have to hear his mother make his father chose between him and the city... #oh i made myself sad #anyways #batfam #damian wayne #robin #mine #Batman Incorporated (2012) 6 or 7 i think #my panels #missing alt

Dc x dp reincarnation prompt part 2

This is a lose follow-up of this post. (Quick recap if you don’t wanna go through it: this is the au where danny is a reincarnated martha wayne and sam is reincarnated thomas wayne. They fall through a portal and end up in Gotham where Sam starts getting her memory back and passes out.)

After red hood spots them, Danny gets them back to the realms coz he’s worried about Sam still being unconscious. He gets them to frostbite who’s says she’s fine and that she’s just getting her memories back. And then eventually they both get their memories back and they’re both like, omg Bruce! They assume he’s dead (I mean their murderer shot them both, it makes sense they don't dare hope Bruce is not) so they just pass the word to the whole realms that whoever can find Bruce Wayne(‘s ghost) will be rewarded by the high king of the zone. And for years nobody finds anything. Then one ghost by chance happens upon the dc dimension and sees Bruce Wayne and goes “omg it’s the prince!” So he tries to kidnap Bruce who just freaks out, fights back, and manages to escape. Maybe he overhears the ghosts talking, “the bounty/recompense was only for dead, there wasn’t a specification for if he was alive”. So Bruce is like ok these people want me dead. The whole batclan is being super protective of their dad and the ghosts just go: “the prince has children! We should bring them too right?”

Bruce contacts Constantine for help urgently. Constantine comes by and just goes, “hm, yeah. Well, basically you’re fucked.” And eventually the whole family gets whisked away to the ghost zone where they meet the grandparents.

Thinking about de-aged Bruce via magical shenanigans being a bit of a menace. He will bite you if given the chance, and will draw blood. Slippery as an eel to catch. Don't even think you can corner him in his own home, he knows every single secret room and deep tunnel in the manor. Your eyes are scratch-able to him. Try telling he's the future and he's demanding you tell him who killed his parents. Can't tell him? Alright then, you're lying. He would've found out by now if this really the future.

bruce fucking hates tim's boat. and he tries so hard to not let it show but like bruce is a billionaire baby who's never lived in anything but a sprawling estate so it's just fucking hilarious. so it just ends up like

tim showing off his boat: and here's the kitchen! so what'dya think bruce? real nice huh? rent's cheap too

bruce calling upon all of his batman training to not actively recoil: it's... nice.

#alfred: it's been awfully quiet since master time moved out. that being said how did you like his new living situation? #bruce face contorted into disgust: oh yes. the /boat/. it's.... quaint #any one of his kids ask about tim's new house he'll go on like a 10minute rant #alfred unthinkingly: yes it must be quite small. esp considering bernard lives there too. #bruce whipping head around: THEY'RE DOING WHAT? #tim drake #bruce wayne #bernard dowd #timber #dc

Idea that Danny found himself in an alternate dimension and so when he goes to find his alternate self because this is around the area Amity Park should be and his house, he gets the wrong black haired blue eyed child.

Yep, he thinks he’s deceased Jason Todd, instead of neighbor kid Tim Drake.

Danny wonders wherever it’s his fate to die before he is old enough to drive.

#He stays for a little bit and sees this other kiddo trying to honor his alternate self’s legacy and decides to help #secretly of course #like in little nudges in the obviously downwards spiral that is Bruce #which #is his alternate dad he guesses #his chest squeezes unpleasantly because oh how he wishes his dad knew his son died #and not wish he could capture him and dissect him #(even if he doesn’t know Danny died) #wow #this turned angsty #anyways #tim absolutely knows there’s an invisible presence helping him #at first he thought it was alfred #tim absolutely does not talk to thin air to make the being more comfortable #no sir #(both are lonely genius children) (with no siblings) #(at the moment) #danny fenton #jason todd #danny phantom #tim drake #dp x dc #tim drake robin

In the universe in which Bruce Wayne and Joker are in a public relationship and are a power couple, I gots some thoughts.

So, Bruce visits Joker in Arkham or whatever. Like brings him flowers or something, I dunno. And someone says something about how they cannot BELIEVE billionaire Bruce Wayne would spend his time with someone who is mentally unstable enough to be in Arkham. Well, said someone's buisness suddenly fails when for some unbeknownst reason, Wayne Enterprises stop financially supporting said buisness.

Some time later, Joker and Bruce are at a gala. Bruce Wayne expierences autism 100 moment and someone goes ableism about it. Just a passing comment. And then after the rich socialite party, maybe two nights after, Joker doesn't kill them, but he sure does psychological torture.

#If you cannot tell by how I wrote this‚ my brain is fried. #It took all my strength not to call Joker 'the Jonker' and I'm proud I didn't. #I do not know WHY I've been thinking about Batjokes so much but I have. #And WHY CAN'T I FIND FICS LIKE THIS? I don't want Batman and Joker smooching!!!! No no no! #What I want is infamous criminal Joker and billionaire with social status Bruce Wayne gay married! #And the press won't leave them alone about it! The news is always telling stories. It's great for Bruce Wayne's cover! #All the headlines think Bruce Wayne is secretly some villain because how else is he gay married to Joker?????? #Cuz he. Heem. Him. He's Batman. #And everytime Alfred forces Bruce to go to a gala and network‚ Joker is his date. And all the billionaires are scared out of their brains. #How is everyone so hyped up on the freak nature of Batman and Joker going at it freak style and not THIS? #I get the appeal‚ but this has layers of intriguing in another aspect that I feel isn't explored enough. #AND THERE ARE TOO MANY FANFICTIONS FOR ME TO SORT THROUGH TO FIND SOMETHING LIKE THIS! #And think about it! If Joker lives with Bruce Wayne‚ and everyone knows where Bruce Wayne lives‚ and Joker does some joking... #And Batman goes to handle the situation‚ it would make a REALLY good excuse if anyone notices Batman going into the Wayne residence. #Batman can be like 'Oh no. I'm not here after a long day of crime fighting cuz I live here!!! I'm here to interrogate Joker!' #And then everyone smiles and nods. #autistic Bruce Wayne #Sentiments of a vampire. #batjokes

@phoenixcatch7

I have a very important question about the Possessed Doll Au Does Alfred also have a doll or do the Justice League see this old man who looks human scolding the most terrifying member of their group- and it's somehow working

#question #possessed doll au #batman au #batman #justice league #alfred pennyworth #If Alfred has a doll I like to think it's more human than the others because he doesn't have to take it out/worry about it being damaged #or it just looks human with the face but the more you look at it the more inhuman it looks #like a wax figure that started to move on its own #But honestly I think it'd be hilarious if their first introduction to him is him scolding Bruce lol #The robins: GRANDPA :D #The JL looking at the visibly human old man: ????? #Oh the new rumors would be crazy lmao #Wait what about Damian's whole 'blood son' thing #what would *that* do to the JL's thoughts on wtf Batman is lol #“Does he even *have* bloood??” “Apparently enough to have a blood son???” “But how-” “I don't want to think about *how* thank you” #“Okay but what about the others huh what does that make them” #“Shut up I don't want to think about it” #The kids overhearing this and ready for Mischief: #also would u like a wip of some writing at some point lol #still absolutely adore this au and premise

I was watching teen titans and thinking about how Slades obsessed with making Dick his apprentice and Tim has Ras whose similar and I was like wow Batman just trains assassin magnets ig

And then I thought hey what if it was reversed like Ras and Slade already had the robins as their apprentices before they met Batman and then were like "hey Batman will you train my apprentice for me" and Batman was like sure.

& then as soon as he got handed the children he went hmm. Well actually I think I am going to make them my sons. obvs they're like "hey give them back" but Bruce goes "I already introduced them to Alfred so no <3"

#tim drake #dick grayson #batfam #batman #alfred pennyworth #Ras shows up like: timothy come w me rn #tim: let me ask my grandpa #Ras: thats not-- #tim with alfred standing behind him with a shotgun: he said no #also i didnt mention in post but in this scenario/au batman is a bit morally grayer like an antihero or smthn #bc idk why he would be cool to train slade or ras apprentice otherwise #dami is also kind of this canonically but in a slightly different way bc he also like chose to not go back to the league on purpose yknow #so he fits right into this #i doubt david cain would go for this w cas but if it were somehow possible she could also 100% fit this #idk if theres assassins obsessed w jason like this tbh. it would b funny if he was literally the only relatively normal one in this au tho #jason:so how did u guys come to be adopted by b #the rest of them: oh our assassin mentors asked him to train us but then he decided to keep us instead #jason: . okay i guess. he just sort of picked me up off the curb #qondoejdk if jason was the only one in this au who didnt kill lmao #dc #anyway this is kind of nonsense but whatever

[mintacle]

And another thing. I’m only going to say this very shortly because people don’t want to hear the truth, but portraying Alfred Pennyworth as the voice of reason and the normal one is a bit agist because it refuses to allow older people to be nuanced and wrong and interesting for their own sake. 

It makes his character flat and stereotyped.

#alfred pennyworth #this is just about the fact that fics write him as supportive of all the batkids and the nice grandpa when in canon he is the strongest #enabler of all of Bruce's worst tendencies #I want to take Alfred apart like a wristwatch and see how the gears turn #and say. Oh! It's messed up! #This is not about comfort family fic where arguably all of the batfam are wildly ooc #comfort batfam fics are perfectly fine and important to my mental health and can please keep alfred as a nice grandpa figure

Real reason Barbara and Cass stopped living together was because Cass kept touching Barbara's tech setup with cheeto dust covering her fingers

#she just wanted to watch reality shows #cassandra cain #barbara gordon #sometimes i think about how Cass was like oh you do the cleaning here? *drops can on floor* in front of alfred
