Lmao This Is Hilarious

Damian is an artist.

Damian being an artist is so dear to me in many ways, he can use this creative outlet to show how he views things, people, himself in such a deeply vulnerable way without having to say it.

Give me a Damian who paints his family portraits for their birthdays or just for himself, give me Wayne brothers each painted in Damian's style but distinctly different from each other. Different elements are highlighted for each person.

Give me Dick painted in chunky, light strokes reminiscent to van Gogh.

Give me Bruce painted in colors just off from being black and white.

Give me Jason so desaturated or monotoned that when Damian uses color for his eyes they almost glow green against everything.

Give me Cass unshaded and abstract.

Give me Duke painted in the brightest of bright colors against the darkest of shadows, bonus points if glow-in-the-dark paints were used.

But Tim? Tim has always been terribly difficult to draw, Damian just can't get his face right.

He won't let Tim best him in this way, it's unacceptable, but Damian will not let anyone see his artwork not at it's best. He does everything he can just not to draw Tim's face—his favorite is to spiral Tim's face, maybe he'll leave an eye or paint whatever flower he thinks best represents his brother that day right in the middle.

And Tim just loves it.

The first time Damian painted Tim and gave him the piece, he was uncertain of how it'd be received though he'd deny this with every breath in his lungs. He was prepared for Tim to hate it, to get angry that he distorted his face in such a way—and he could see the same thoughts on the faces of everyone who saw Damian present it to Tim. Why wouldn't he hate it? It'd be disrespectful to anyone, especially if the artist and the muse had such a disastrous relationship. He couldn't be blamed, but Damian was prepared to blame him regardless.

Tim was silent for what felt like hours when he laid eyes on the portrait Damian had painted of him. He hadn't expected any portrait Damian painted of him, if he ever painted one of Tim at all, to make him feel so... seen? Understood? Viewed in a way Tim could have never described?

If Tim cried? That's none of your business.

I'd like to think after taking care of the batkids Bruce just naturally became more attentive towards the JL members without realizing it and it drives them crazy when it first started happening

For instance, Clark trying to find a pen under the table that he dropped and Bruce subconsciously covers the edge of the table with his hand. So when Clark bumps his head he was not expecting feeling soft hand cushioning the blow and hearing Bruce go something along the lines of "be more careful" he's just like "???"

Another scenario is Diana and Bruce in his car (undercover mission or something idk) and when he breaks he instinctly had his hand Infront of Diana who's in the passenger seat( that thing mom's do) and just pretend nothing happens afterwards

Barry accidentally tripping while he's doing his usual thing and sees Bruce make a "I told you so" face but he can see he's slightly worried

I just think batman being a mother hen of sorts towards the JL would be silly

I think Jon is a very intense version of Superman. He’s a kid given this big responsibility and almost no control on his very extreme emotions. I think he can get a bit erratic, I think he’s worn out his goodwill faster than Clark ever did or will. I also think Damian is more of a shining light in Gotham than Bruce ever was because Damian demonstrates change. He knows the city is hopeless but he also thinks it’s worth it because he changed. He knows how the blood on his hands felt and how it felt when he washed it off.

This is why when I like the demon Jon and angel Damian motif better than the inverse.

Harley and Tim fighting after Tim came out as nonbinary:

Harley, swinging a bat at Red Robin: are you wearing lipstick?

Red Robin, dodging and sweeping at her legs: yeah actually. I'm trying out make up recently.

Harley, doing a cartwheel to dodge: it looks nice but thats a whole lot of red on your costume. I think black might look better.

Red Robin, sliding passed her and pulling her off balance: you think?

Harley, pinned: yeah! Come visit me in Arkham tomorrow and show me how it looks 'kay?

Red Robin, handcuffing her: yeah! Want me to bring you a coffee?

Harley: if you bring me a vanilla chai, I'll give you some pointers on how to do your nails. What are your pronouns by the way?

Red Robin: they/them

Harley, being put in the batmoblie: got it!! see you tomorrow!

Batman, whose been hearing all of this over comms: what the fuck just happened?

Do you think the rouges think there is a new Robin every time they change something about themselves because honestly the robins all look pretty similar so the only way to tell was in the style choices

They know Batman gets a new Robin occasionally but they don’t know when which leads to them thinking that Batman got a new sidekick after like a hair cut or a suit change

Riddler: oh I see Batman got a new Robin needed the newer version hm?

Tim drake got a hair cut: (gets punched when he pauses in confusion)

Tim in the midst of puberty and his voice got deeper: stop right there joker

Joker: ooh a new bird to kill how fun I should get my crow bar polished

Harley and ivy robing a bank just as Damian shows up

Harley: ok this is getting ridiculous we need to have a intervention for you batsy there is no way you can give your children enough emotional support and attention if you adopt a new one once a month

Damian who redesigned his suit: wha-

Batman pinching the bridge of his nose: same kid Harley

Ivy: are you sure about that

Harley: yea are ya sure you didn’t adopt one without realizing it batsy?

Batman glances at Damian unsure:

Damian: Father!

Damian calls Lizzie ‘Mayflower’, Jon calls her ‘Lovebug’ and Diana calls her little Princess.

Also Steve 100% calls her little devil. Fight me.

More deaged Tim stuff ft deaged Dami :)).

I hc that Tim also knows Arabic and Dami didnt know that so he always says nice things to Tim in Arabic (cuz he thinks he cant understand) and one day Tim just responds in Arabic and Dami is SHOOK.

thought about what a robin to the absolute!batman would look like. conclusion: small

He’s still a kid after all, his attention span can be…short
