have been re-reading my own fic (i am my own target audience) and have decided it is good and more people need to read it so, some advertisement:

do you think Janet Drake is an interesting character with untapped narrative potential? do you perhaps like when women are really smart and competent but also a miserable disaster at the same time? do you like when women suffer immensely under the weight of patriarchal ideals they'll never live up to? are you simply an enjoyer of tragedy? when a character is doomed by the narrative — or in this case, doomed by someone else's narrative?

then you might like my fic: your parents, they were dying about falling in love . it's a Janet-centric story in which she knows Bruce's secret identity and they become friends, though broadly it still follows canon events.

So yeah read it and then yap to me about it or about these characters or whatever :)

(i also have a bunch of other (much more fluffy) batfam fics for those interested my ao3 is the same name as here)

(also this is my first tumblr post idk what I'm doing)

i see so many people complaining about tim cheating and like....

you're aware he never actually cheated, right???

you know that was something steph accused him of that he very specifically didn't do, right?????

you know that the drama of the cheating accusations are because they're false, right?

please tell me you know this

This is my formal protest against "Tim needs to grow up and move on from Robin!"

Disrespectfully, Robin isn't the training phase. Robin isn't only for children. Robin is a respected vigilante who is expected to continue being a vigilante.

Specifically with Tim, he already grew up. He did that. And he found that he wanted to continue being Robin because that was the most helpful to the people of Gotham and it made him feel fulfilled.

Robin was never supposed to be a child forever. Robin is a mantle that can be carried by one person for their entire lifetime. Dick Grayson didn't make Robin as something he wanted to move on from.

Tim even said that he'd stop being Robin when someone better came along. Not someone else willing. Someone better. Someone who would perform the role of Robin better than he could.

And that 'someone' hasn't appeared yet.

People are misunderstanding the tim rules talk. He doesn’t follow the rules he follows The Rules, a list of what he has personally decided and self imposed as what is acceptable. The things he does that most people would consider as breaking the rules usually fall into the category of “behavior that Bruce and/or Dick praises him for and therefore clearly is okay to do and isn’t part of The Rules”

Happy Father’s Day to Tim Drake

at his core and what I think is most important to understand tim drake is and always will be a freak so write that down

I have now met Anita Fite and I would die for this girl.

And we're officially past the halfway point in this challenge 🎉

bruce, seeing news reports: may not be my circus but i’d know my monkeys anywhere

Shout out to the time Tim helped Babs install a holodeck in the belfry, mooched pizza off Dick when he came to visit, bullied Dick into being the one to hide when Ted Kord unexpectedly showed up, and neglected to tell Dick he was hiding in a holodeck, at which point he sicced a holographic tiger on him. King of causing problems on purpose for fun, peak annoying little brother shit, god bless
