I feel like the thing a lot of people get wrong about Bart Allen is that he’s not stupid, he’s not naïve, he’s just, well, impulsive. Like he’s the kind of guy to leap before he looks, not because he doesn’t know he’s supposed to look or because he doesn’t want to look, but because he gets himself so caught up in the act of leaping that he totally forgets to look entirely. And this isn’t a bad thing! Sure it sometimes gets him into trouble, but acting on his base instincts has saved him a ton of times.
people don’t like it!?! it’s genuinely some of my favorite art of a lot of the batfamily characters
@vinelark you know what’s up. the art style is half the reason why I constantly reread cass’s batgirl run

I know he’s just lying to protect his secret identity but I’m sobbing over the idea of Jack Drake being the Tony Hawk of philanthropists in Gotham
The way Tim and Steph actually share one singular braincell. . . when they are in each others presence neither of them are ever capable of using full brain capacity for more than 30 seconds
Stephanie: Cass isn’t just my best friend, shes my baddie from another daddy
Jason: . . .
Stephanie: Oh dear god why did I say that

Duke: What’s wrong with Tim?
Damian: The idiot took NyQuil instead of DayQuil by accident but refuses to sleep because he’s got work in an hour
Damian: He’d probably be fine if he hadn’t taken twice the recommended amount too
Damian: He’s gonna pass out any minute, wanna watch with me?
Duke: Hell yeah
Duke: Tim! How’s it going dude?!
Tim: I CAN SMELL THE RAINBOW

Dick: I’m really not that sunburned
Barbara: lobsters aspire to achieve that color Dick
Dick: At least my skin actually has color
Barbara: It’s not my fault I’m translucent!
The way I think about these panels at least twice a day
Is it weird that i miss this? Like I genuinely found this dynamic so entertaining. And like honestly I kinda felt like it showed how much respect they had for each other? Like oracle could easily find out what Tim was up to/his identity, but because he doesn’t offer it up and chooses to keep it private, she doesn’t pry. I don’t know I just really liked this dynamic it was so different and interesting. I miss it. . .
these days the facto assumption usually seems to be that all of the Bats know everything about other members of the gang, so it's really interesting to get these jarring reminders that they used to operate with crazy levels of secrecy. like just in Nightwing #20 (1998) we have Barbara being the last person to find out that Harold even exists, years after he started living in the Batcave
and, even more drastic, Barbara and Tim meeting in person for the first time ever (also god they talk about Bruce like he's an elderly dog they need to keep track of lmao)
and Babs doesn't even know Tim's secret identity! when he and Dick head over to Wayne Manor to look for Bruce, Tim peels off to check on his dad next door, and not only does Babs not know why but Dick doesn't even tell her. she has no idea who Robin is outside of the costume and absolutely no one thinks that's weird.
they're sooooo dysfunctional I love them
When I tell you I audibly gasped
Damian: You can’t talk you flat ass!
Stephanie: I may be part of the itty bitty titty committee, but i am NOT part of the itty bitty ass committee so shut your mouth
Damian: Oh sureee whatever you say
Stephanie: 38 inches Damian. 38 INCHES! that’s bigger than cass’s head
Cass: It’s true! we measured :)

Roy: My friendship is your birthday present!
Jason: Does it come with a receipt?

Dick: This is a circus, a certified circus
Dick: And I would know, I traveled with one for 6 months when I was 19
Donna: You know I always forget about that
Wally: Yeah you’d think it’d come up more
I’d tell them you said that, but they really don’t need that kind of ego boost
Dick: Woah! What’s with the face?
Jason: It’s Bruce. He never leaves me alone! I swear he’s so far up my ass I can feel him in my ovaries
Dick: You don’t have ovaries?
Jason: Exactly

Tim:
~at 3 in the morning~
Tim: Did you know that only 5% of the ocean has been uncovered? For all we know, there could wild JoJo Siwas in the ocean
Kon: And she attacks your boat and violently humps you
Bart: Or there could be glowing squids! That’d be pretty cool
Cassie: Have any of you ever heard of inside thoughts??
~
Tim: Why are you crying!? What’s wrong?!?
A very pregnant Stephanie: Sometimes when my eyes get lonely I cry because they’re friends with my tears :(
Tim:
i haven’t even touched the group chat yet, y’all aren’t ready for that one
Dick: Woah! What’s with the face?
Jason: It’s Bruce. He never leaves me alone! I swear he’s so far up my ass I can feel him in my ovaries
Dick: You don’t have ovaries?

Tim:
They all yell at everyone else constantly about respecting their personal boundaries and shit but then they all turn around and track each other’s every move, like “i just wanna make sure you’re safe :(“
Love the idea of the batfam all being equally unhinged like Tim calls dick every two days with “why’d you take the cameras I use to stalk you down :(“ Dick is always placing trackers on everyone, Bruce just fucking shows up and watches his kids go about their daily lives, Jason’s got eyes all over the city to ping him if someone matching his families description pops up, Barbra is always listening and watching like love that shit
Post- Robin face reveal but pre-Robin identity reveal, Kon sees Tim among the hostages of an armed bank robbery he just thwarted in Metropolis. He flies over to him fully intending on making fun of him for getting caught up in it.
“Hey, Rob…” realizes a second too late that Robin isn’t alone and he’s about to blow his secret identity in front of… Bruce freaking Wayne?? “…ing. Robbing. You. Yeah, um. Im robbing you.”
Tim blinks incredulous, “What?”
“Yeah, I’m robbing you right now,” Kon says, committing to this decision. “Gimme your wallet or I’ll… I’ll beat you up with my tactile-telekinesis. You too, Mr Wayne.”
some quick little doodle headshots of cassie, tim, and cass. today was the first day in a while i’ve been able to draw and it feels great!
~at a very fancy restaurant~
Bart: Woah there’s a lot of French on this menu, oh! Speaking of French guess what I learned on Duolingo today
Cassie: What’d you learn?
Bart: When they say ‘cat’ in French they pronounce it ‘shat’! You know like sat but with an ‘sh’
Tim: Bart please stop talking
Bart: No it’s true! They say ‘shat’! S-H-A-T. Like if Kon was a French cat I’d say “Look there’s the shat right there!”- why are you laughing
Kon: Bart, um do you know what shat means in English? Come here (whispers for a moment in his ear)
Bart: IT MEANS SHIT?? WHY DIDN’T YOU TELL ME!
Bart: oh sorry
Cassie: just kill me now
Bruce: Jason! No gang signs at the dinner table!
Damian: Stingrays are so smooth. They feel like Stephanie’s hands.
Steph: Was that a compliment? I can’t tell if that was a compliment.
Damian: OH I’M SORRY FOR TRYING TO BE NICE TO YOU ASSHOLES FOR ONCE! GOD, I MENT THAT YOU HAVE SMOOTH HANDS!
Steph: Thank you?
Damian: whatever
Dick: Oh don’t worry the bite marks are just from Tim
Barbara:
Dick: I swear that sounded reassuring in my head
Jon: I’m a co parent of a beaver named Kyle Jr and it’s all because of poor golf cart driving skills. I’m pretty sure he has rabies but it’s NOT my fault
Dami: For once
