Being demisexual and bi is funny to me. Anyone can hit it but you must suffer The Gauntlet first

[Non-video format] They like each other but they’re afraid

-

More like Tim is afraid of their friendship changing and unsure if he wants to explore his sexual identity while Kon doesn’t want anything to make them drift apart, afraid of losing Tim

-

This took forever, omg, I didn’t know how I would want to do the line Art and you could sorta tell that I got lazy in the end

*a old video starts playing, camera focusing on a young Lieutenant Price*

Lieutenant Price: *ranting over a past mission he was pulled from, hair a mess with the start of a beard, eyes bloodshot from not sleeping for three days*

Lieutenant Price: -why pull us then? We were THERE- What is command hiding? Huh?? Why pull us??? Gunfire? Suspicious activity? Several heavily armed men spotted in the area!? THERE WAS CAUSE FOR INVESTIGATION-

*camera shifts before panning over to a young Nik*

Young!Nik: *staring at Lieutenant Price with concern, dark circles under his eyes as he disassociates*

Young!Laswell, from behind the camera: Is the dick worth it?

Young!Nik: *looks to the camera with a tired look before he nods solemnly, Lieutenant Price still ranting in the background*

Young!Laswell: *laughs*

Peter: Mr Stark! The ice cream truck is gonna pass by soon, can I borrow 2 bucks?

Tony: What's the magic word kid.

Peter: Dad?

Tony, pulling out $100 from his wallet: It was supposed to be please but...that works too.

Bruce, muttering under his breath: A bit too well.

Bruce (responsible for the popularity of blond!Batman): hn (no)

Clark: enemies to lovers... romantic rivals to lovers!?

Clark: Bruce, we're poly with ourselves

Bruce: hn (interesting)

Clark, squinting at screen: what's a "miraculous square"??

Bruce (responsible for Superman!Bruce and Batman!Clark): no clue, dearest

Spin-off post based on this post :))

It is widely known in fandom spaces that Gotham is heavily split between the SuperBat shippers and the BruceMan shipper

It's an all out ship-war, the two sides vehemently hate and bash each other online

One day someone proposes the obvious: a poly ship

SuperBruceMan becomes one of the biggest ships in the Gotham real-people shipping community

And then Bruce Wayne ruins everything, by publicly dating nobody-reporter Clark Kent

This spawns a third faction (the Brent shippers), and the magic of poly ships are forgotten

Until someone (yet again) proposes polyamory, and SuperBrentMan is born

Identity shenanigans quickly becomes a SuperBrentMan staple, as the ship is made up of two civilians and two unknown vigilantes/superheroes

And thus, the first SuperBrentMan miraculous square fic is born

The utterly charming but ditzy Bruce Wayne must find a way to tell the love of his life, Clark Kent, of his secret identity as an alien superhero, while Clark Kent tries to come clean about being Gotham's dark knight

The real Clark and Bruce are just thankful that the shippers got the identities switched

now with a part 2 :)!

Pathetic men ❤️

Soft spot in my heart for Tony Stark’s genuine soppingwet pathetic vibe. Common consensus is that this guy is mr confident heartbreaker or whatever meanwhile in actual canon he’s saying shit like ‘I needed u and u weren’t there’ / ‘u were supposed to be my frienddddd’ / ‘u lied to me how could u 💔’ like omg bro could NOT be more romantic heroine sad little yearning losercore if he tried.

i do have to imagine that if arkham prince omega bruce got pregnant by clark that that would be kon. born in a cold white room far from the sun and raised by scientists away from his parents…i think this is how you get bane having beef with bruce in the AP au. bruce unknowingly recreating the hell bane grew up in, with a pup who is half kryptonian and becomes physically ill without sunlight, in arkham asylum. no way for that to go wrong, surely

that being said it does make me think despite all the asks about bruce being so excited to baby trap clark that it’s actually the last thing he could bring himself to do, because he’s adopted a couple of his jailbirds by then and he would rather take any number of drastic options before willingly bringing a child into that kind of environment. that creates a lot of opportunity for bruce subconsciously refusing to even realize it’s possible (assuming he’s infertile due to all the medications he’s been on for years? he’s probably on a regimen of suppressants at the least) until sooner or later style shenanigans make him realize. i want to see him crash out and desperately try to hide the pregnancy not just from clark and his other kids (because it wasn’t supposed to happen) but from all his doctors, too, not trusting any of them with his pup. as he shouldn’t, because i imagine things are…not good, when it’s discovered that the baby is half superman

the bright spot in this is that you get a kon without bald genes. that boy has beautiful luscious black locks from BOTH parents

……oh god. yeah. yeah.

RE: scar around Bruce's throat from LoA days and turtle neck wearing shirts

Man, so many NDAs and legal team involvement must be included in the magazine photoshoots Bruce signs up for, because of his scars, burns, bruises on his body.

Makeup can only do so much so the editing teams and MUAs must sign extra paperwork to blur out the concerning bruising, and manip the heck out of the curve of his pine where visible surgery scars exist, or situate clothing a certain way to hide things.

Bruce must twitch every time he sees his blemish free body on advertising. Like it's not a secret he has them because "haha silly Brucie Wayne fell on his ski trip AGAIN" but some you can't explain away when the camera is so close.

(Clark's introduction of what Bruce "looks like under the uniform being "shopped Brucie Wayne" then being horrified when he sees him in real like (and under xray vision) like my god how are you upright??)

Bruce wears the turtlenecks and clothes even in private with his loved ones because he doesn’t want THEM to ask questions or feel bad or take on any of those memories from him. It’s as much for his own protection as it is for them.

Clark is a tricky element though — he can see through anything Bruce puts on, other than the Batsuit. He wouldn’t know to look under Brucie Wayne’s clothes, but after he knows who Batman is? Bruce is an entirely different person only he can really see.

It’s not vanity that keeps him covered up, being beautiful at this point couldn’t matter less. But when Clark looks at him…suddenly Bruce loses hold of that conviction a little. Because pity stings from Clark in a way it doesn’t, coming from Dick or Alfred…
