I know you don't really talk about Tim and Jason but I wondered why you said that Bruce likes Jason more then Tim when I always viewed it the other way around
og post in reference
Anon it's a such a coincidence for me to get this because this was something I actively debated over while creating the ranking.
In fact, originally I had written "4. Jason/Tim (tie?) 5. Tim/Jason (tie)" before I got rid of the slashes and ties.
This is the one part of the ranking that I'm most confused on/don't have an exact answer for. The rest are solid and those I'll be explaining in a different post soon but these two gave me a lot of confusion.
I think what it comes down to is in which shitty way that Bruce treats either of them expresses more love. And to me they're roughly the same in equally but different bad ways.
Bruce obviously loves Jason but he's also not remotely proud of him. His relationship with Jason is always "I love you BUT-" kinda relationship.
"You're good-

BUT-"

Batman (1940) Issue #415
"You're loveable-
Tumblr media
Batman (1940) Issue #410
BUT-"
Tumblr media
Batman (1940) Issue #411
There's always an opposing side to every good thing Bruce says about him. He views Jason as a failure but he still loves him and yet can't help putting him down. After Bruce dies, he leaves a message for Jason -
Tumblr media
Batman: Battle for the Cowl Issue #3
Like Bruce full on treats him like absolute shit. How could you as a parent tell your son straight to his face that he's a failure and then say that it's your fault?? Somehow this is adding more insult than injury than to just blame him directly.
Bruce and Jason had good and bad times when he was Robin. There many times when Bruce was like "Good job, lab!" and other times when he struggled to deal with Jason. There was one case in particular that soured their relationship irrevocably. Things became really bad between them after that such that Bruce actively fights with himself not to lose his temper at Jason more than he used to.
For example:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Batman (1940) Issue #426
Things get worse and worse, Batman benches him, Jason runs off to Ethiopia, and then you-know-what happens. In summary of their Robin-Batman relationship, Bruce thought he found a good partner in Jason, was happy for a while, but then started believing he made a mistake when Jason used the skills he taught him to go past the limits of what Bruce was acceptable with. The secret Bruce talks about is that one irreversible case I mentioned - Gloria/Felipe - where Jason killed a man. Or atleast Bruce suspects he killed a man.
Tumblr media
Batman (1940) Issue #422
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Batman (1940) Issue #424
When Jason came back as Red Hood, Batman felt so guilty for the fact that he made Jason robin because then Jason wouldn't have died but also believed that Jason was beyond saving. When Jason was at the hands of the society because of Black Mask who wanted revenge on him for what he did, Bruce almost let Jason die a second time - this time intentionally - before he changed his mind last minute and joined the fight to help him out.

Batman: Under the Red Hood Issue #10
It's this type of relationship I struggle with because Bruce very much loves him and even says so -
Tumblr media
Batman: Hush Issue #11
But also guess what tips him off that he's not fighting Jason?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Batman: Hush Issue #11
I call this confusing but Dick calls this something else entirely.
Tumblr media
Batman: Battle for the Cowl Issue #3
Tough love.
Maybe, but I guess how I would make out their relationship to be is: if Jason acts within Bruce's expectations, then Bruce loves him. If he doesn't then Bruce doesn't hold back hitting and punching. I don't think their relationship is tough love as much as it is conditional love. There are conditions to the way Jason must act in order for Bruce to love him and if he doesn't act that way then he stops caring about his son. He's happy if Jason comes to gatherings but doesn't particularly care if he doesn't. He leaves Jason alone if he follows his rules but actively goes after him if he doesn't. Both in his Robin days and now, Bruce doesn't tolerate Jason if he acts outside expectation but still loves him and although it's not the kind of love you would appreciate, it's also not the kind you can set aside and call it nothing. It's complicated. That's Jason and Bruce's relationship.
Tim on the other hand, he's very proud of. He thinks Tim is excellent, smart, dependable, and loves him very much.
Tumblr media
Batman (2016) Issue #128
But I feel like Bruce takes him for granted.
Bruce was both neglectful and very involved in Tim's life.
Bruce means a lot to Tim in the sense that he was a true father to him.
Tumblr media
Batman (1940) Issue #480
Tim's dad Jack gets really worried that Tim might consider Bruce more of a father than him. "Maybe - But I'm your father, Tim. Not him!"
The developing relationship between Bruce and Tim was based originally on need. Bruce needed someone who he could work with and Tim needed someone who could be there for him. As time evolved that need turned into liking which turned into love.
After Jason, Bruce needed someone who listened to him completely. Someone who never questioned him or doubted his orders and Tim was everything Bruce needed and he loved that.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Batman (1940) Issue #467
Bruce invested a LOT of time into Tim's training and he also depends on him heavily but at the same time I feel like he constantly brushes off Tim's words and worries.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Robin (1993) Issue #9
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Batman: Urban Legends Issue #10
The classic "I trust you but I know better than you" x 10. And it's this thing that gives me doubts because I get this inexplicable sense of distance in their relationship. Bruce loves, trusts, and cares for him but I feel like there's something missing.
This being said, I realize that there's no clear explanation as to why I feel this way so I'll change the ranking back to "tie" for the two of them like I originally had. Because while Bruce loves Jason, he doesn't tolerate him and while Bruce loves Tim, he kinda disregards him in a way. And between these situations, I can't decide what represents more love or favoritism. I guess a part of me just felt really, REALLY bad for the way Bruce treated Jason. That post kinda shredded my heart so I gave him brownie points on the favoritism ranking list but in hindsight, after all this and writing it all out, I think Bruce loves Tim and Jason equally. It's entirely possible Bruce may actually love Tim more because unlike with Jason, I can't provide evidence of Bruce distancing himself from Tim in loving - only left with more of a sense. So in this case I agree with you, anon. It's very possible.

What if asoiaf characters ended up in the world of Narnia? How would they react to the world, Aslan and Jadis?
Okay caveat i haven’t read narnia in a long time BUT all the magical characters are probably in their ELEMENT here I mean
Arya and Lucy would be besties anyway, so you know Arya is having the time of her life
Narnia is a place filled with magic and romanticism and happy endings (if sometimes with a bit of bitter laced with sweet, as the jump from childhood to adulthood always is) and I think all of that would appeal to Sansa on such a deep, fundamental level. When I tell you Sansa and Arya would have a blast!!!
Jon Snow magical girl who puts his entire arm into his prehistoric dinosaur wolf bestie's mouth for funsies would be hella excited about all the talking animals
BRAN STARK. PLS. NEED I SAY MORE HERE.
I think Robb would have a blast too and not just for magical animal reasons but him and Peter have that same "put upon eldest brother" vibe that I think Robb would thrive at being given the chance to really shine as a brother first and a king second
tbh i think the amount of prophecies might freak Dany and Theon out a bit actually - look me in the eyes and tell me Theon would not be tempted by Jadis the way Edmund is, lmao - but I think under some circumstances they could bounce back and have fun exploring the magic that exists there
I know saying Melisandre would like it here is a wild choice but I think the more fairy tale, straightforward morality would appeal to her a lot. Whether she gets obsessive about the wrong kind of magic is um, a different convo. I did make myself sad thinking about poor little slave Melisandre praying to some sort of divine power to save her and Aslan being the one to answer however so that's fun
Kind of along the same lines, in that Narnia often appeals to children who feel lost due to extreme upheaval, I think Missandei would crawl right through the wardrobe, see the lamppost, and just fall in love with the world around her. She's so smart and inquisitive and brave, I just think she'd be delighted. I think if Missandei and Dany went through together, they'd be alright <3
Actually now that I think about it, if Theon went through with the Starklings, he'd end up okay in the end too.
Kind of obsessed with the idea of little Lannister siblings all crawling through at some point or another. Cersei being unable to access the wardrobe, chalking it all up to a dream after she marries and all her dreams turn to ash. Jaime being unable to cope with having adult memories in the body of a teenager. Tyrion (shout out Peter Dinklage, hah) finding a world where his intelligence and wit is respected and growing increasingly dejected with his real life. Wow I made myself sad now.
DUNK AND EGG IN NARNIA. Egg just crawling through one day and Dunk is like now where The Fuck did this kid go and has to crouch his tall ass through that fucking wardrobe after Egg, and Egg is already running into the woods and playing in the snow and Dunk is grumbling after him. DUNK AND EGG ON A ROAD TRIP IN NARNIA. DUNK MEETING A CENTAUR. EGG BEING DISRESPECTFUL TO THE BEAVERS.
Personally I think it would be really funny if Euron came through and Peter takes one look at him and is like "alright fine give Lucy a weapon" and they unleash her on that blue lipped freak. Lucy with a gun >>>>>> Euron and his godhood magic btw
Also Quent. Poor little frog prince would love Narnia. (also, being like Fantasy Spanish with Caspian is kind of funny imo) (I can't remember if Caspian's country are also Fantasy Spaniards in the books or they just made Ben Barnes do that accent for funsies).

TRULY MY FAVORITE PART OF THIS KISS IT'S THE REVERENCE THE GENTLENESS THE TENDERNESS THE ADORATION THE SLOW SLIDING OF TALAY'S HAND DOWN PUEN'S ARM AND PUEN'S SOFT LOVING HEAD CRADLE AS HE STROKES TALAY'S HAIR WHILE THEY PART FROM THE KISS AND LOOK AT EACH OTHER IN THE MOST ADORING WAY POSSIBLE THE ABSOLUTE EMBODIMENT OF THE QUOTE 'THE BEST THING TO HOLD ONTO IN LIFE IS EACH OTHER' RIGHT BEFORE THE UNIVERSE RIPS THEM APART
I SIMPLY CANNOT STRESS ENOUGH HOW LOOKING AT THIS MAKES ME FEEL LIKE IM DYING OF ACUTE OXYGEN DEPRIVATION

lol why didn’t you answer my ask with my top tier fic idea for buck’s stuck cock ring?
Hi anon, I was actually waiting until I had enough time to respond to it properly since I'm busy with life stuff. I get that it sucks when you send an ask and it doesn’t get answered, and I'm sorry for that. But I don't appreciate the tone you took in this ask and the way it made it seem like you feel obligated to my time. Whether or not that tone was intentionally there, I'm not going to answer your original ask anymore. If you want people to see your idea, I think you should go ahead and post it yourself. You don’t need to wait for someone else to post it for you.

I hope this doesn’t sound weird, but reading your tags in your post about being sick made me happy and proud that your dad is getting better at being a dad, idk the story behind it but im really happy that he’s putting forth effort to improving 🥺❤️
I'm not gonna traumadump on my main lol, I got a good therapist for that. But yeah! He's improved a lot. I still have a lot of repairing and like, growth in terms of our relationship and dynamics and such, but it's looking up. This past year has been really tough but I'm really grateful that I've been able to make those steps with my dad. I've not always had a great relationship with him.

do you think eddie would still be a good, lovable person if he sold opioid pills? the pills in his stash are most probably benzodiazepines. they're harder than ket and they cause addiction if taken regularly and i love him so much but i'm worried it would mean he would let his loved ones take it, too. do you think he would?
Not to get tetchy on main but my dude, it's called a headcanon for a reason. Stuff like this is the canon of your head. I don't know shit about fuck when it comes to drugs, drug dealing, or drug using, because I just... Don't care about them. They're not in my wheelhouse. I rarely even drink alcohol, like maybe 2x a year.
My opinions on Eddie's behaviors are limited to 2 things: a) what I can easily extrapolate about narrative and plot from what I see on screen and b) what I care about thinking about. I have less than zero interest in drugs, or what Eddie does with them, and I'm not here to soothe someone else's issues with drugs. If you want to think he'd do the thing, then headcanon it. If you don't like the thought that he'd do the thing, then don't headcanon it. That's the great thing about them not telling us anything, you can just make up whatever you want.
And in the end, I'm not his creator, as unfortunate as that is. I'm just some dude on the internet looking at narrative devices and patterns for blorbos from my shows. And the narrative only needed the drugs to get Chrissy to his trailer and throw shade on him to the community. Everything else is not my business.

Hi, love you art!!
I've just recently started back on Tumblr and I was wondering if you had any tips on getting stuff noticed? I've been uploading pretty regularly and tagging a lot but have been having no luck :')
Thank you!!
Hello!! Thank u sm!!! >v< welcome back to Tumbloo
Tumblr can be tricky since as far as I'm aware, the only way your stuff will get seen is either they are found through search tags or reblogs, so I'm honestly stumped on this too. Though these are stuff I've done that has helped me a bit I think <:D
Interact with other posts (Reblog and adding your own addition to the post)
Reblog your own art at different time of the day to bump it for different timezones
Search for best posting time (Find data when most users are active. I had to post early in the AMs sometimes cause of my timezone)
Engage in fandom art, posts, or activities with other users! (If that's your interest! Don't force yourself! Have fun with it!) This one helped a ton and I'm grateful for people who share similar interests when I have my brainrot phase! <3
Meme redraw or some funnee (Trust me, memes and fandoms are a great way to bond with people. Looking at my oomfies <3)
Tag your posts (Prioritize the first 5 tags since those are the ones most likely to be picked up in search or smth, I dont remember, but get the broad/most likely to be searched terms first then you can tag other stuff in.)
In the end tho, I feel like these days I just post whatever I wanna, reblog my own stuff on occasions and hope people like them enough to reblog or share it around too.
Its hard getting stuff noticed, so be sure to do the same for others too by sharing/engaging with it. 🫶Hope this makes sense SJDSD

What rules do K-Verse bounty hunters have to play by in their hunts?
-Hunters must not harm innocent civilians in the course of a Hunt, either from direct action or collateral damage. Any harm incurred during a Hunt beyond that of Hunter and Quarry must be evaluated by a Guild committee and sanctioned accordingly.
-Hunters must abide by the terms of engagement dictated by the Client, as well as those dictated by interstellar treaties with the galaxy's ruling powers. In the absence of such treaties, Hunters must follow local planetary law as it applies to the Hunt.
-Hunters require special permits to hunt on inhabited planets that have not yet reached spacefaring status. (this rule is often ignored in the deepest reaches of Wild Space)
-Hunters must not poach assigned Quarries; a Hunter may request of the Guild to have a Quarry reassigned, which may or may not be granted on the basis of a Hunt's difficulty, location, etc.
-Hunters may cooperate on a Hunt at will. By default, earnings from such a Hunt will be split evenly among the Hunters, but Hunters may come to a different agreement that will then be enforceable by the Guild.
-Hunters may not purposefully harm each other at any time. In the event that a Hunter goes rogue, the Guild must first excommunicate them as a Guild member, at which point every effort must be made to bring them to justice. Depending on the gravity of the rogue Hunter's offenses, the punishment may include summary execution.
-Hunters may be provided with basic weaponry, armor, and transport by the Guild. Hunters may purchase improved arms, armor, and transportation at their leisure. Unless otherwise dictated by the Client, they may also obtain resources from their Quarries.

pop up parade L vampire miku..... haven't been this torn over a figure in a while, because yes, pop up parades get a lot of criticism, however it's from the L product line, but there's no L or XL figures released yet so idk if they are good, but the figure is pretty, but the pose is a bit boring, yet the accessories and face look amazing, but
