An As Far as the Yukon Feathursday

We hold several books illustrated by the noted American wildlife painter and book illustrator Francis Lee Jaques (1887-1969). He and his wife, nature and travel writer Florence Page Jaques (1890-1972), were avid outdoors and wildlife enthusiasts, and Francis illustrated several of Florence's published travel memoirs. As Far as the Yukon, published by Harper Brothers in 1951, is one of their later joint publications. The book recounts a journey taken by the Jaques along the west coast, much of it by train, from southern California to the Yukon. Florence Jaques makes keen observations about the birds she encountered for which Francis Jaques provided lively illustrations. Click on the images to see the bird species captions.

some Wayne gala shenanigans

Damian: Some people have no shame.

Jon, a plate of brûlée on his hand: What do you mean?

Damian: Tt. Those so called classy, but actually pretentious women are embarrassing themselves for not understanding the memo.

Jon: What memo?

Damian turns his eyes away from the sight of some women, trying their best to get his brothers' attention and to the said memo.

As said memo are two redheads, and a half kryptonian and half human eating by the food area.

more women approach his brothers.

Damian, frowns: We need to save Richard, Todd and Drake.

Jon: They do look uncomfortable.

Damian, sighs: I have to enter the battlefield.

Jon, pats Damian's shoulder: You will be remembered by your bravery, Dames.

Damian breathes and walks towards the inner circle.

before Damian can even say anything else, the women have started cooing at him.

Damian internally cringes and he hopes this would be worth it.

thankfully, Damian don't have to suffer long as Wally, Roy and Conner join the commotion.

Roy: Sorry, Jaybaby. *he has that crooked smile, that Jason personally adores, as he wraps an arm around his waist* I was caught up at the food buffet. Want something to eat?

Jason, internally thanks the heavens for Roy and leans close to him: Starved. Excuses, everyone.

Todd is saved. Check.

Wally: Come on, honey. *holds Dick's hand and leads him away* I deserve a dance.

Dick, smiles like an idiot and holds Wally's hand: I better go, ladies. He gets a temper. Have a good night.

Richard is saved. Check.

Conner, touches Tim's shoulder then his cheek: Want something to drink? You seem tired, babe.

Tim, finally feeling awake for the first time since this happened and touches Conner's hand that's on his face: Yes, please, babe. Ladies, will you excuse me?

Drake is saved. Check.

the ladies are left speechless. some are jealous. some are frustrated they can't get the Wayne fortune. but, some are in awe.

Damian, lightly smirks: It's never gonna happen, ladies. Now, enjoy your night. Excuse me.

he finds Jon by the sweets section.

Damian, nudges Jon's arm: Thank you for that, Jon.

Jon, smiles: It's nothing. I needed to save you too.

they give each other a high five then proceed to challenge the other on who can eat the most chocolate covered strawberries.

[hello-waffles-are-good]

Dick: what did he do now?

Roy: HE SMILED

Dick: at you?

Roy: no, at our dumb friends but HE LAUGHS LIKE AN ANGEL

Dick: go away Roy

Roy: shut up, I watched you pine over Wally for years, let me have this

Dick: go on

'familiarity' by redsray (reigned)

Author: @redsray

“Hey, who was it that sent the threat?” He asked, doing his best to subdue his grin. Hal raised an eyebrow but didn’t comment on it, so he must be doing decently.

“The Red Hood,” Hal confirmed with a sigh and Roy was two breaths away from rolling on the floor. No way. “He’s been running us in circles and we cannot get any hold of Bats.”

Roy choked on a laugh, disguising it with a cough. “That’s tough,” he said, with as much sympathy as he could muster. “Hope ya catch him, soon.”

“Me too, kid,” Hal said, getting up and ruffling Roy’s hair as he left to seemingly rejoin the conversation. “Me too.”

Roy watched him leave and let himself snicker as soon as he was sure Hal was out of earshot. He turned his head down, pulling out his phone and typing as quickly as possible.

Roy (5:59pm): DID YOU SEND A THREAT TO THE WATCHTOWER

Jay (6:01pm): Was I supposed to?

What is your favourite Roy-related thing fic-wise that you have ever written?

my favourite roy-centric thing ive written is the as-of-yet unpublished persephone prequel that deals with the fallout of nightwing 93 and ty for asking cause i am dying to talk about it

[dragon-chica]

I just read a fic with Roy being Jason's Gay Awakening and solely for hilarities sake, just to torment Dickie bird, I want tiny Tim to have had a crush on Roy and the boys talking about when they realized they weren't straight.

Jason says the first time he saw Roy shirtless in the training room.

Flashes of toned, sweaty, taught archer's arms go through Tim's head. Suddenly his throat feels very dry and awkward. "Yeah, same." he croaks out.

Jason nods in approval, taking a sip of his drink. "Good choice, but buzz off replacement, I called dibs when I was fifteen."

Dick's just standing there, mouth hanging and really regretting bringing this up this topic.

Later Dick calls up Roy, and before he can even say anything shouts into the phone "QUIT MAKING MY BROTHERS GAY"

quickly texts him after "I'm not being hypocritical, I'm just sick of it being YOU."

Bruce is 100% supportive of his kids but blames Oliver just so he can be mad at him.

Best Friend’s Brother

Jason Todd x M!Reader

Warnings: Fluff, implied smut, crack-ish

Summary: Jason meets Roy’s brother (the reader) and they start dating

Quote: “OH MY GOD STOP TEXTING Y/N AND GO TO SLEEP!”

✁ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

You and Jason first met when your brother, Roy, invited you to hangout at his place. Jason knew that Roy had a brother, but he had never seen you up until that point. You however, haven’t heard of Jason at all. Needless to say you were immediately mesmerized when you first saw Jason.

“Roy never told me he had such hot friends” you flirted.

“And Roy never told me how hot his brother was” Jason replied.

“Ew, Go get a room” Roy Fake-gagged.

Needless to say, you both ended up getting each other’s number by the end of the night. You two texted the whole night. Roy could hear Jason giggling and chuckling through the walls.

“OH MY GOD STOP TEXTING Y/N AND GO TO SLEEP!” Roy yelled out.

Little would Roy know, he would have deal with more of that in the future.

While texting you, Jason found out that you were also a vigilante going under the name ‘Arrowhead’. You still vividly remember Roy making fun of you when you picked out that name (he still does).

Fast forward a few weeks and you and Jason went on your first date and started dating shortly after that. As much as Roy pretended to not be a fan, he secretly (not so secretly) supported the both of you.

After the two of you got together, you had lots of dates with Jason. Some of them at a restaurant, some of them at amusement parks, some of them at museums, but a lot of them were at Jason and Roy’s apartment. Even though your dates would sometime be interrupted by Roy accidentally walking inside, it was always something special.

While we’re on the topic of Roy accidentally walking in on things, he has walked in on you and Jason making out on Jason’s bed countless times, even to the point where Roy doesn’t even try to act surprised anymore.

You also started going on missions with them. Jason had never seen you in your vigilante costume up until that moment. But when he did, he quickly pulled you in a random alleyway… and.. let’s just say you both had to give your suit a deep clean after that.

What Jason also noticed though, was that you were extremely skilled with a bow and arrow, dare he say maybe even better than Roy. And oh boy, as soon as Jason even mentioned your skills to Roy, Roy would immediately tell embarrassing stories about you.

“Hey y/n said that-”

“Oh he thinks he’s mr perfect? Did you know that when we were little he used to be so scared of bunnies that if u even held one near him he would start pissing his pants?! HA! SUCK IT!” Roy blurted out.

“ROY!” You shouted.

“Uhhh.. I was just going to tell you that y/n said he made dinner” Jason said.

“Oh… ignore what I said!” Roy laughed nervously.

[wondersinwaynemanor]

my own version:

Jason: Manipulate, mansplain, or manslaughter?

Roy, without a breath to spare: Manwhoreforyou.

Jason, brows raised: Say that again.

Roy: I said Manletsgetmarried.

Jason: Okay.

Roy: Really? Okay??

Jason, a smile appearing on his face: I think we already are, Roy.

Roy, grins: I just wanted to hear it from you.

Dick, through the comms: ROY HARPER????? JASON TODD????

Roy, grins even wider: Present, Dick Grayson!

Jason rolls his eyes.

Dick, huffs: I WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK TO BOTH OF YOU!

Jason: You're not my mom, Dickface. Bye!

DICK: LITTLE WING-

Jason, shuts off his comms: Anyways, where were we?

Roy, does the same and tightens his hold on his bow: About to fuck shit up.

Jason, takes his weapons from their holsters: Then what are we waiting for?

Roy, smirks: That's one of the things I love about you, Jaybird.
