I was watching teen titans and thinking about how Slades obsessed with making Dick his apprentice and Tim has Ras whose similar and I was like wow Batman just trains assassin magnets ig
And then I thought hey what if it was reversed like Ras and Slade already had the robins as their apprentices before they met Batman and then were like "hey Batman will you train my apprentice for me" and Batman was like sure.
& then as soon as he got handed the children he went hmm. Well actually I think I am going to make them my sons. obvs they're like "hey give them back" but Bruce goes "I already introduced them to Alfred so no <3"
"Great!" Danny says, clapping his hands together to get everyone's attention. The dinner table falls silent as everyone looks towards him. It's a full house today and, honestly, Danny's a little nervous. "I'm sure you're all wondering why I gathered you here today."
"It's dinnertime. In our house." Duke mutters, while doing a very bad job of concealing his yawn. He holds his fork poised over the braised beef, but, just like everyone else, still looks towards Danny before tucking in. It's intriguing enough to wait.
"Yeah, no one misses Alfie's dinner." Dick says, with a brilliant smile that Danny can't help but return.
"Precisely! What better time to talk to you all than when you're all actually here!"
"Wait, I thought you came round to work on our English essays?" Tim asks, blinking owlishly.
"I'm afraid I've lured you here under false pretences, Tim."
"This is where I live."
"I would still really appreciate help on that essay though, I mean, what the hell is Hamlet even about? I just don't get that old time-y language, like 'Hark! A ghost hath killed me!' - absolute rubbish, what does that even mean?"
"The ghost never kills anyone in Hamlet, he's there to tell Hamlet that he was murdered. Have you actually read it?"
"No, but it sounds like you have. Tim, I want this guy to help me with my essay instead. I know for a fact that you haven't read Hamlet, either."
"So? We don't need Jason, I've read the Sparknotes."
"Hi Jason, I'm Danny, pleasure to meet you, summarise Hamlet in three sentences or less."
"Am I auditioning to help you write your essays? I can't believe you’ve gone through your whole school life without reading it, it’s good!"
"Hamlet, along with a number of other classics, was banned in our house because it portrayed ghosts as intelligent and sympathetic beings rather than evil, animalistic beasts. I didn’t even get to see The Muppet's Christmas Carol until last year with Tim! It was surprisingly good, and I hate Christmas because everyone always argued and it sucked. But we're getting off topic. I—"
"No, no, please go back to that, because what the fu—"
"Boys, please." Bruce interrupts, looking to the world as if he wants to hang his head in his hands. "Danny, you were about to say something?"
"Oh, yeah, Mr. Wayne! Thanks!"
"Please, call me Bruce."
"Well, that very succinctly brings me to my point, because I'd actually really like to call you dad."
Nobody says a word. Nobody even blinks, all as shocked as the other, watching open-mouthed as Danny pulls his laptop out from beside his chair. Bruce can definitely feel a headache coming on.
"Before you say anything, I've prepared a 69 slide PowerPoint presentation on why you, Bruce Wayne, should adopt me, Danny Last-Name-Pending. Please save your questions, comments, and verdict until the end, thank you."
men who swear up and down they’re not into you— or men for that matter. men who flirt with women as often as they can. men who drink a little too much during a night out and start grinding against you in the dimly lit club you’re in. men who’s legs feel like jelly and skin feels hot as you guide their hips against yours. men who turn to putty as you drag them outside. men who forget every bit of elegance when they’re pinned against the wall. men who weakly beg for you to fuck them right there in the decrepit alleyway. men who wake up the next morning barely being able to walk and can’t look you in the eye now. men who sport dark hickeys and bite marks from you as they attempt to flirt with another girl to distract from how good you made them feel the night prior.

Ship wars over Batman are so funny because that man is the king of divorce none of the relationships yall are fighting about are going to last. “He should be with Talia” “He should be with Selina” he can be with both because there is no “endgame” for him outside of dying alone like let’s be serious now
[After talking about Fit's deal with Madagio and the upcoming deadline]
Ramon: i dont mind losing a life if it means u can stay
Fit: No– Ramon, don't talk like that, you are– I value your life more than my own, trust me. I mean, if push comes to shove, I would easily sacrifice myself for you in a heartbeat, Ramon. In a heartbeat.
Ramon: u dont need to. if u're not here, then who will i be?
Fit: No, Ramon... You're my son. Even if something happens to me, you've got people on this island that care about you. You're a strong Egg. Nothing's gonna happen to me though. [Ramon nods] Like I said: I always find my way on the better side of situations. I always find a way out.
Ramon: u always survive
Fit: Yeah, sometimes by the skin of my teeth, but I survive! And you're a survivor too, Ramon. I mean– look at you! Losing a life almost immediately, and then surviving– [accidentally knocks Ramon into the water] Oh, sht, I did not mean to push you in the water, Ramon. [Laughs] But look at you! You survived on one life longer than any other Egg. You're a survivor, just like me. You're a survivor just like me.
I just realized that Jungryeok basically speedran the qsmp experience today:
-got jumpscared by an admin, then immediately started begging for stuff (in this case, millions of coins for the house building task)
-immediately became besties with Etoiles
-adopted an egg, became attached real quick (gender fuckery included, he's Chunsik's mom :D)
-threatened divorce (he and Acau aren't anywhere close to married)
-had some amazing translator mess ups, which led to some absolutely hilarious screenshots
-killed two people
-nearly died multiple times
-started teaching people swears, then got told not to swear
-learned how to swear in Spanish and French
-peaked his mic while learning said swears
-showed off a frankly impressive talent (Jungryeok can beat box?!?! <- the qsmpblr community)
-robbed at least two people (Acau and Cellbit iirc)
-could immediately tell when the admin for his egg changed
-built a house (it's purple!)
I think all Jungryeok is missing is a hatred for the Federation, a traumatic event that fundamentally changes him as a person, and learning Portuguese swears? Correct me if I'm wrong, though.
Man “Battle Nexus: New York” was a great episode but I do have one major gripe with it.
Like. Raph being paired up with Ghostbear? Makes sense. Works great. Works amazing, even.
Mikey being paired up with Meatsweats? Yeah that checks out!!
Donnie getting…Hypno…? I mean. I guess Donnie doesn’t like magic so it kindaaa works but Kendra would have been a much better choice to me personally. Maybe Big Mama didn’t wanna include a human or something…
And Leo getting…uh…one of the Sando Brothers???? Of all villains? Nah let’s be real, his main villain is more Big Mama herself (or Leo could be considered his own worst enemy lmao-). Hell Hypno would have probably worked better here considering their shared love for magic tricks and stuff, but Carl Sando????
