Bruce: “This is batmobile n.47.”

Duke: “N.47?”

Bruce: “Yes. N.46 was totaled by Jason recently. I trust that you will drive carefully?”

Duke: “Yes, sir.”

Duke: “Bad news, I crashed batmobile n.47.”

Tim: “Actually, that was batmobile n.53. Just don’t tell Bruce and you’re good.”

i gave into the brat summer color palette

+ bonus babs

i thought it would be funny if because if you can see her (when she’s not just over comms) you can only see her from the top up so her artifact grants the privilege of themed-comfortability

anyway be kind to me about the wheelchair i am not very strong in drawing more technical things but i wanted it to look whimsy still also if you saw my og wip duke… no you didn’t… i jest i jest i wasn’t super happy with the finished product and i decided i did in fact want to give him a weapon

[ahfrickenfrick]

duke: how tf do you know when one of us is doing something vaguely stupid?

dick: it’s my dick tingle

duke: don’t ever say that to me again

dick: :(

i love thinking that gotham treats the bats like a sports team in terms of pride (either bc their actual sports teams don't do well or some other reason)

people have banners outside their windows of the bat symbol, schools have a "wear merch of your favorite bat" spirit days, there's graffiti portraits of the different bats and some of them take selfies with the murals of themselves, kids get "the robin haircut" and the name "robin" is higher on gotham name rankings than in other cities, people put bat emojis in their instagram and twitter bios next to "gotham" or their location, there's constant not super serious debates over who the best bats are, everytime a new or "new" bat appears there's a ton of excitement and conspiracies on twitter

[violent138]

Duke: "Bad news guys, he managed to give me the slip."

Tim: "How? Okay, who's got eyes on him?"

Damian: "He's just... gone."

Tim: "Hood?"

Jason, eating takeout: "Stop hacking my comms for this, I'm not even there!" *leaves the channel*

Steph: "Negative from me, I've been tailing some whole other guy."

Tim: "Nightwing?"

Dick, in a whole other city, on the computer, barely listening: "I already told Alfred I left the keys in the--"

Tim: "Thanks anyways. Orphan?"

Cass:

Tim: "Well shit. Everyone, we need to find him now."

Kate, spotting Bruce holding someone's black-haired baby at the Gala and immediately taking the baby from him: "No."

Kate, pressing a hand to her earpiece: "I got him just in time. Don't give me those puppy dog eyes Bruce, you can't even keep all your kids' names straight anymore."

Tim: "Phew, crisis averted everyone, good work. But remain vigilant."

Jason: "Tim, I swear to God--"

Yes! I caved in and finally decided to draw them, the batbunch in casual clothes, from this idea by @batty-birds. God I had so much fun sketching this, I’m totally not living out my pinterest board fashion catalogue dream, I am not (I am). And why’s Barb so Kim Possible coded lmao. And I really liked drawing Cass with her asian features because #asianpresentation and I’m proud of my heritage lol. Also Damian was a little joy to draw too, he has a lollipop in his mouth, not cigs.

Dick was by far the hardest to get right, I wanted something dynamic for him, yet not too overly sexualized so he took the longest to get right. And Jason and Duke were the coolest to draw bc omg their colors fit so much with this street aesthetic shit???? Like yooooo

Also, a truly cursed sketch of Bruce and Alfred in their casual clothes, it’s funny so I put it here lmao. 6 pax Alfred speaks to me on so many levels

Update 1: since some of you asked....here it is, Alfred with six packs. I saw someone on Tumblr mentioned him (in a headcanon i guess) being a Kingsman and I was like dang, that makes so much sense!!??

Each of the Batfamily members have moments that genuinely scare the others.

For Cass, the family generally tries not to piss her off from a consensus that she'll win any fight.

Damian is usually not feared, especially when he's making assassination attempts or insults. When he becomes silent and an animal is involved, that's when the Bats start to freak out.

Duke doesn't mean to be scary. He'll just casually mention something he's done or react to someone instinctively with his powers. This reminds the others why he usually handles the day shift alone.

Dick has two settings to set his family instantly on edge: The first is when he lacks a smile or quips. This is usually reserved for enemies. The second is when he -is- smiling, but it's not right. He only does this allies who are about to be verbally or physically eviscerated.

Steph will lack any visible emotion in her face.

Jason's scary to his family when he makes biting remarks or starts to monologue. He usually follows those up with physical retaliation or some dastardly plans.

Babs uses her "Customer Service" voice as the last warning before your tech or reputation is destroyed.

Tim will either disappear without warning (to make some heinous schemes), or he'll pull out the Drake™ smile.

Bruce just starts talking about emotions.

For Alfred, there'll be dirty dishes in the sink.

Now did Duke just not know how Jason died or is he doing this on purpose?

[tiffycat]

When you forget one of your brothers is legally dead

[spicy-apple-pie]

Poor Bruce thought Duke was going to tell him something else and just wanted to be supportive :(
