Are lycras actually canon?

Everybody calls characters like Pink Guy, Salamander Man, Red Dick, etc lycras. But why do people call them that? What is the source of the name? That's what I'm gonna be discussing today, I guess.

The main source of all this seems to be the Filthy Frank Wiki, and I have already stated in a previous post that the wiki is a bit shit. The wiki often tends to have fan theories and joke stuff passed down as true, unfinished articles, most articles completely ignore the lore from the book, and overall a lot of stuff that's not canon. This is what the article for the Lycra people says

I don't know about you, but I don't remember any videos that mentioned a Chinpocalypse or how if you don't feed your Lycras enough Chin chin branded chromosomes their skin will fall off and they will freeze to death (But the idea of Chin chin branded chromosomes is pretty funny. I have to give that to whoever wrote that it's like he's a cereal mascot.) I especially don't remember all that in the book, which is supposed to explain the lore of Filthy Frank.

So Lycras are mostly likely not canon. I say most likely because of how prevalent it is. Every single supposed Lycra character's article mentions how they were turned into Lycras by Chin Chin, and everybody in the community calls them Lycras. It's so prevalent that it had to come from somewhere. No way some random guy just made the article for Lycra people and everybody just ran with it. It had to originate from somewhere. Maybe Joji made a post on facebook or twitter about Lycras. Even if he did Lycras are probably not canon anymore. I would appreciate it if somebody would find the origins of all this, unless some random guy did make the Lycra article on a whim and everybody just ran with it.

By the way, I don't want to discourage anyone from calling them Lycras. Y'all can keep calling them that since I will too. It's a good group name, especially since you can't really call them much else if you want people to know what you're talking about when you're talking about that group of characters. Just keep in mind that the name is not actually canon.

There are probably only like 3 other people than me who care this much about the lore of fucking Filthy Frank. Jesus Christ

nightwing being hurt in the field, and over comms he can’t get out what was wrong, nearly in shock, and jason puts on his best batman™️ voice and says “robin, report.”

and it snaps dick out of it enough to say concussion, possible broken ribs, and a gash in his side.

no one talks about it, and then a year later, damian does the same thing to tim

I think it’d be funny if Dick and Jason, due to wearing bright yellow capes on the job for years, are capable of stealth to a frankly unhinged degree. They barely have to try anymore it’s so second nature. Dick can just completely disappear while in the loudest neon clothes imaginable. Jason is constantly startling people who don’t understand how they missed a guy the size of a fridge standing right there. Bruce is extremely grateful for his unbreakable poker face because they have both startled him by accident and would never ever let him live it down if they knew.

Headcanon where after so many arguments between the batkids and Bruce over his paranoia and complete disregard for his kids privacy, the entire family had compromised with (in the healthiest way possible) downloading life360 on their phones and that's how they all keep track of each other.

Now Bruce knew that this is mostly for his benefit and is supposed to be a healthy alternative for his unhealthy paranoia and helicopter parenting, but what he wasn't expecting was for his kids to start keeping track of him.

He's putting gas in his car and Dick calls him because apparently Dick has been watching him drive around on the app? And Bruce is currently at a gas station thats right around the corner from a Taco Bell and now Dick wants him to get food for everyone since he's already there.

He's driving home from a meeting and Steph calls him because her and Duke were shopping in the area and wants to know if he can pick them up, when he asks how she knew he was on the same street, he gets a "Oh I just like to stalk everyone on the app for funsies." as an answer.

Jason calls him and he can barely get out a hello before Jason cuts him off, "Bruce why the fuck is your phone battery on 5%, charge your damn phone" which completely stuns him because why does he know that. He clears his throat before answering. "Jason, what?"

"Everyone can see each others phone batteries on '360, now charge your phone." Is all he gets before Jason hangs up on him.

Love the slight AUs where Bruce as Batman has been a member of the league for ages, but he's somehow managed to keep his assortment of children under the radar.

Because it sets up the wildest misunderstandings within the league. He routinely talks about his babies, his children who are all so sweet and kind and occasionally assholes yes but only because they are young (and traumatized) hell I don't think the league would even be aware that they're adopted. So they're all thinking literal children

Barry: Bats really loves his kids.

Hal: I mean they're babies, wait till they hit the angsty teens and I'm sure we'll be hearing the opposite

Which means the day they finally meet Nightwing they don't know wtf to think. For one thing, how old would he have been when he had this kid???? Should they be worried about that???? And for the other, that is not a baby, that is not a precious little thing.

He could break someone in half. Like a twig.

He won't, but he could. And they can see that. (He's bat trained, they have seen what the bat can do they are not fools)

And they're like, okay. Okay maybe he isn't the baby (he is). He's got younger kids right? He's never said how many, they have 0 clues. They've been expecting 1 child, maybe 2 because he'd said kid in the plural exactly once when comforting an older woman while they were searching for her children in the aftermath of a rough battle.

And then a week later they run into Red Hood. In his leather, with his guns. And he drapes himself across Batmans back with all the self confidence in the world and starts whining about the "Brat" breaking into his safe house.

To steal his dog.

And yet again. He is not baby. He is bigger than Batman. He could probably break Batman in half given the bat didn't put up a fight. But Batman looks at him with probably the softest expression they've ever seen on that mans face and tells him very earnestly that the kid just wants to spend time with his older brother, next time they should try a walk. Maybe go to the zoo.

But probably not one of the babies. They're kind, and gentle, and at least one just loves reading and Bats has been trying to encourage that!!!

And then a day later he mentions his "babies" going for a walk in the park and they all instantaneously lose their minds at the confirmation.

absolutely lost it over this fic by @neuro-psyche so. have this comic o(- (

go read it rn if u also love some Good identity reveal fic!!!!

[fact-dogsarehappiness]

Another reason why I’m a firm believer in letting Bruce get old is because the idea of him looking and his dark haired children without his glasses on and genuinely not being able to tell them apart is unparalleled
