Feel like it might be obvious, but who’s your fav re character? :3

(I love your art style btw, it reminds me of my childhood😭)

Both of them 🙏

Though honourable mention to Donna Beneviento, I thought she was neat

[mysterycitrus]

who do you think is daddy dearest’s LEAST favorite?

she is not his child but that will not stop him from hating

[onlysushicat]

Principal: Thank you for coming, because unfortunately I summoned you to tell you that Helena just had a fight with they classmate.

Dave:.....And she won?

Karkat: DAVID!!!

excuse the quality im very sleepy, but i had to get the idea out of my head sdjsjd

I imagine Dave NEVER wanted to train Helena but he felt a bit anxious about her not being "protected enough" even with his and Karkat's care. He gets in big trouble once Helena falls sleep lol.

They get into an agreement about her taking lessons only IF she requests them in the future (once shes a teen)

[erinwantstowrite]

how do you think your peter would feel about Hawkgirl? (she’s my favorite justice league member she’s so girlboss 😋)

every time peter sees a girlboss doing anything he thinks they're the coolest ever. especially the JL women!!

So, I've just gotten back from vacation, sorry for being silent the last week or so. I went to go visit my brother in Chicago and didn't think I'd have anything to post. But before I left I took kind of a swing, because we live in the internet age...

And evidently the Bats have nothing better to do!

So...make of this what you will (and send me more asks, I'm lonely)

[cringefail-clown]

you guys remember the post ive made about classpecting my old ocs and how their session would be Terrible? well here they are. i imagine theyd be a bunch of college students who once were childhood internet friends that kinda fell apart, but decided to reconnect over winter break by playing a new and fresh game that just appeared on the market. chaos ensues

[incorrectbatfam]

Send me a song that reminds you of a batfam member and I'll try to guess who it is

[dyrdeer]

Genuine question although it might sound a bit rude, but do you do art of transfem characters, or just transmasc ppl :?

I do have some transfem ocs! I have Helena here!

I have this other girl Im obsessed w rn but I don't have a ref yet! I'll be sure to make it obvious its her when I do draw her tho! (shes a part of the bee universe)

I'd love to make more too! Most of the trans fem characters i have are parts of stories, so maybe I should make one who's just an oc?

[sestrahulk]

My story is an embroidery with many beginnings and no end. But I will start with the thread of my sestra Sarah, who stepped off a train one day and met herself.

Happy 6th anniversary to the series finale of Orphan Black!

What would you consider to be Dick's very best qualities? What would you consider to be quintessential qualities for Dick Grayson to be Dick Grayson? Thank you 😊

Oooh! I’m gonna talk about the qualities that make up the core of Dick Grayson. Writers have different ways of writing him but if they’re lacking one of these qualities then it’s not him they’re writing. Super generally, there are three things he must have.

1. Over-competence

If Dick isn’t the best then it isn’t him. No doubt, canonically Dick is the best. This isn’t even a take, he’s so good at what he does and who he is, people literally form complexes because of him. Tim has a complex about him, Jason has a complex about him, Bruce has complex about him, Roy, Wally, heroes, villains, even freaking Deathstroke has a complex about him. He’s just so good at fighting, solving crime, and tactical maneuvering that he is quite literally considered the height of excellence. Freaking Bruce has relationship issues because Dick is so perfect that he fails like he - Batman - is failing!

Dick’s entire relationship history with everyone - romantic, platonic, friendship, every type can be summed up to one thing - his perfectionism and how others are affected by it. So if Dick isn’t easily kicking villain butt then that’s not him. Everyone just knows that he'll always win or survive.

Like Helena says -

Detective Comics (2016) Issue #1056

He'll be fine. He's freaking Nightwing.

2. His kindness

While Dick loved adventure and fighting as Robin, what he loved even more was talking care of people. He thought of it as Robin’s job to help the victims, and he did it because he wanted to. Soothing crying children, reassuring worried parents, finding lost pets - he loved the joy that came with make people feel happier and better. Batman might be the dark avenger obsessed with fighting crime but Dick was the one who focused on the first responder type of cases from the victims side.

His first instinct is to help people. That's also why he's such a good character because he can wipe the ground with almost anyone but he's also sweet and soft enough to just feed a bird that hopped inside.

The New Titans (1988) Issue #71

This scene is probably my favorite Dick Grayson scene of all time.

3. His leadership

Quite frankly the greatest leader. Qualities that make up a great leader is the ability to actively listen, properly delegate tasks, communicate effectively, show empathy, make difficult decisions, be accountable for their actions, have strong integrity, and have a strategic mindset. Dick effectively displays all of this to the maximum extent.

And the whole community adores him for it-

Titans (2003) Issue #23

Superboy: "Nightwing and Starfire brought wave two. Which is just about everyone who's ever been a Titan."

"It's a natural thing when Nightwing shows up. None of us are conscious of it, really--but we all look to him for orders."

It's because of these three qualities, that Dick Grayson is who he is and why he has the blanket adoration of the hero community.

[mewtwoandme]

Siv's gonna become the world's most overprotective mama until Blu can defend himself, ain't she? Also, poor Louie, I'm guessing the Lycanroc will be Siv's first target?

Yeah Siv's not gonna let anyone near Blu for the first week or two before she starts to mellow out.

The lycanroc's definitely in the line of fire right now

Grubkat being accompanied to his first day of school by one of his parents :3

Grubkat cries when she can no longer see Karkat, Karkat cries when he gets home lol lol

[roseandgold137]

Could you do Huntress in the palette Eternity or TimKon in the palette Cheap Motel? I adore your art it's so pretty<333

I am actually so proud of this huntress drawing, I think I’ve reached my peak with her. I wanted to try drawing one of her other suits and I don’t think I’ll ever go back

And TimKon! A sneaky little kiss on patrol while Bruce isn’t looking lmao
