I feel like people make too many 'Batman beats up the mentally ill/poor people' jokes and they've forgotten that Batman/Bruce Wayne DOES care about people, so I've decided to share one of my favorite old Batman comic issue so far

It's from 1937 Detective Comics #53 (tw for suicide attempt) (obviously it's from 1937 some bits are dated)

This comic opens with Bruce talking with a reporter friend of his who believes Gotham is "A cold and heartless place" where " everybody rushes about not caring at all about anybody else". Bruce says he's wrong and he wishes he could prove it to him.

Later Batman is patrolling at his favorite haunt, the waterfront, and he sees a lady jump off the pier trying to kill herself. Obviously he's Batman so he jumps in to save her.

He gets her back to the shore, calms her down and asks her why she would jump off the pier, She ends up telling him. Her name is Viola Vane, she is originally from a small town, and she came to Gotham to make it as a actress but it's hasn't worked out as she hoped. But the problem being she told her parents she was doing great but now they are coming to see her and she doesn't want to break theirs hearts.

Now Batman being Batman, and being able to kill two birds with one stone, decides to help her.

The rest of the night Batman goes around the city telling people about Viola's problem. He goes to nightclub after nightclub, he goes to the radio station, he goes to the news paper, and they all agree to help.

Obviously she'll need an escort (because it's the 30s idk) so he asks of anyone knows someone and a guy offers up the "bit lazy but wealthy and good looking" Bruce Wayne

The man says Bruce will be perfect. Batman thinks it'll work because he can watch over her without being Batman, so he says he'll get Bruce Wayne to be her escort.

As Bruce he goes to meet her, takes her to get ready and everyone gets into character, giving her a suite, clothes, furs and jewelry. Bruce tells her about the plan.

The next day her parents come and they meet up with Viola and Bruce. They go around the city and then end up at a Nightclub where everyone is in on the charade

They make it's seem like Viola is the guest of honor, applauding her and shining the spot like on their table.

(There's a subplot about someone trying to steal the stuff in Viola's room, if you wanna read it all go read if for yourself)

But the next night Batman went as far as to get Viola the staring roll in a show in the theater she was an understudy for.

It ends with Viola getting the lead in the show, her parents being none the wiser of Gotham little charade to make Viola appear as a star and Jim learning Gotham has heart

I pity all of LBH’s future kidnappers. Like, imagine kidnapping Bruce Wayne’s trophy husband who seems so very kidnapable. You make the call for the ransom and now all you have to do is wait. And then you turn around and not only has the trophy husband gotten out of his bonds, he’s now wailing on your crew. Then fucking Batman breaks in and the one man wrecking crew suddenly turns around and is like, “Batman, Binghe was so scared 🥺. Please hold me 🥺🥺.”

I mean, given Bruce Waynes reputation and Shen qingqiu's... Everything... I'm pretty sure the buffer and even taller hyper competent dilf who popped in out of nowhere would not be the trophy husband in this equation XD.

My first thought was 'lbh would NOT get kidnapped again if he didn't get wife plotted for it and ruin shizuns reputation' BUT if sqq sternly told him about the far stricter laws of this world around beating people up then Lord Manipulate Malewife Manslaughter would 100% use self defence loopholes to take out shizuns enemies.

Of course poor sqq wouldn't realise that to be the reason - his husband is struggling to adapt to the modern world and the cutthroat nature of Gotham! You can't just go around acting like might makes right without getting shot! So he runs to get the suit on and make sure his hubby is alright!

But asdfghjkl imagine you managed to kidnap the new husband of the Bruce Wayne! Billionaire by proxy! And he's so clearly harmless despite his size - look at his long shiny hair! He's wearing an apron, for crying out loud!

You and your mates are having a good chat, one upping each other over what you'll do with the enormous amounts of dosh you're about to earn, gossiping about heroes. (Hey, wasn't there a demon invasion in star city somewhere?

Nah, it was metropolis or somewhere, right? A demon lord from another dimension! Threw around the justice league like it was nothing!

Must'a been magic then, innit, if it hurt the boy scout! I heard he was looking for something, right? Took out a good few chunks of the city, they're still rebuilding! I'm glad we don't have anything like that in Gotham, can you imagine?

Ha! Bet batman would chase 'em off sharpish. Say, what happened to the demon lord anyway? Don't they normally make a big deal about locking them up or banishing them or whatever?

Well, I dunno, but wherever he is now he can't hurt us.)

Something clinks behind you. You whip around.

(Hey, didn't you say he'd be out for a few more hours?!)

The girly, weird house husband, still in his floral apron, eyes glowing red and talons dripping black smoke.

You find out where the demon lord went.

(Outside, a few minutes later:

Lbh: shizun 🥺🥺🥺, it was so scary! I had to pretend to be human, and they were saying all these awful things about you! I didn't know what to do!

The Batman, huddled awkwardly in the few centimetres of shadow the warehouse wall casts, reaching up to pat a slumping 6'11 adult man on the head: what a sticky disciple. You know they can't hurt you. What's with these tears, eh? Dry your eyes, I won't tell the police who attacked them, okay?

Lbh, hiding his blood covered claws under his pastel apron: okay 🥺

Robin, in the background: how come HE gets away with it??!)

[brucie-wayne-official]

I can't make too many of those. It takes too much from Juniper, but she's happy they helped.

As for missing Arkham patients that want your head on a stick? That's a long list. I'd start with Riddler, since I know he's already planning something. Harley is working on finding any others.

For the record, I am only helping you because Juniper is insistent that I do. Red Hood gave her some food a few weeks back when she was with the other kids in the narrows. She likes him.

- Posion Ivy

I appreciate it. Juniper is a wonderful kid. and Red Hood seems nice so I guess thats why she likes him so much.

[ask-the-linked-systems]

So, I'm adding new side characters to Ash Avenue(one of the stories in Konazel). They are siblings who live in the hood/slum area of Ash Avenue. There is also a fourth sibling: Tink's best friend, Sugar, who got in a fight with the rest of the siblings and struck out on his own. Cleaned up his life, got a job at an office, started being a part of the community and stuff. Note: Forgot to draw the tabby markings on Anna and Wayne’s tails, as well as the scars along Wayne’s face. Oops.

Dog rescued from freezing cold on Christmas Day is on road to recovery in Ecorse

ECORSE, Mich. – A boxer pitbull mix had been left out in the middle of the deep freeze around Christmas Day. She was curled up in a ball, struggling to stay warm, when rescuers found her in Ecorse near West Jefferson Avenue and West Outer Drive. She’s well on her road to recovery. The dog […]

If you read the novel Catch-22 (1961), about U.S. Army pilots & sundry stationed on a Greek island during World War II, you will encounter this off-hand description during the period where Yossarian is hiding in the field hospital:

At which you will either pause worryingly, or you’re normal.

I am not normal, because I have watched the television show M*A*S*H (1972-1983), about U.S. Army medical staff in a mobile surgical unit during the Korean War, and which features a character called Hawkeye Pierce, who frequently looks like this:

Now this bathrobe, iconic simply, appears red to the observer. However, deep into the run there is a line in which Hawkeye refers to it as "purple"—great consternation. But film cameras and light waves being what they are (capricious, devilish), it could very well be maroon in life. It could very well be maroon. It’s what I assumed after that comment. But what I'd never asked was, what is it made out of? Is that corduroy, could it be corduroy, could this be—

Oh noooooooo!

Why is Hawkeye the only one who is wearing the robe of patients from the last war, I ask you! Is it for the METAPHOR. To make me YELL. Did the costume department make it for him, or did they just already have one on hand in the WWII storage? Wait it wasn't real was it? Where is it, where is this robe!

Well babe, it’s in the Smithsonian:

A) of all, fucking fantastic, could not be a place I more want Alan Alda’s bathrobe as Hawkeye Pierce to be than the National Museum of American History. B) well well well well well, what do we have here:

[sic]

So looking THAT up brings you nothing that makes any sense, even trying to correct for spelling. But not to fear: historical re-enactors are here.

On the website of the “WW2 US Medical Research Centre,” an absolutely delightful combination of words and spelling brought to you by two European history buffs, and that’s Europeans who are obsessed with history, specifically American medical units in the 1940s, there’s a page for pajamas, and why look who’s here:

OH ho oh HO!

“Progressive Coat & Apron Mfg. Co.” is so similarly bizarre that I would be very willing to bet that something like idk, the imperfect process of digitizing thousands of records for a website catalog, could have absolutely resulted in “Agressive Coat and Manufacturing Company.” Which would mean yeah, yeah yeah: vintage World War II, slash Korea, just five years later. It was authentic, what they gave Alda to wear, along with his dog tags.

Just Hawkeye though still, which is what's odd.

BUT HANG ON.

Heeeeey now!

So I was recently reminded that in the pilot episode, but the pilot episode only, Wayne Rogers as Trapper John McIntyre also has the regulation corduroy MD/USA bathrobe! In fact, he actually has what would appear to become Hawkeye’s—observe the location of the embroidery. Pocket, like Hawkeye’s in every robe appearance after this first episode, the robe that ends up in the Smithsonian Museum. Whereas the one with the embroidery on the chest that's hanging above Hawkeye's cot here, a common variant that shows up when you’re searching around on military history websites, after this appearance I believe is seen just once more on a visiting colonel later in the first season, then quietly vanishes. Alda ends up in Trapper's, and stays in it for keeps, while Rogers gets, of all things, a cheery goldenrod terry number.

But like, why. Why just Hawkeye in the WWII surplus robe. Both Doyle and Watson have avenues here that I like to think about. For the Doylist side, I suspect it was a decision of like, this is simply too matchy. It’s 1972, our TV screens are small, we gotta take any chance we can get to distinguish these tall white men constantly wearing the same of two monochrome outfits.

In fact, I actually wonder if there was a world where Trapper might have stayed in the maroon and Hawkeye could have ended up in Henry’s robe.

The light blue & white striped bathrobe McLean Stevenson wore as Henry Blake was sold at auction in 2018, and the item description contains the curious detail of it having a handwritten tag inside reading “Hawkeye.” Well heeeyy again.

And here’s another curious detail:

There was a blue & white striped Army-issue robe as well

Now Henry’s is clearly NOT vintage WWII, lacking the pocket embroidery, being terry cloth, and also of course: pastel. But it’s INTERESTING, isn’t it? They had to have been GOING for that look, with that same unusual collar shape and that multi-stripe patterning.

(Also, for real 'what the hell even IS this color' fun, this militaria collectors purveyor has one of the maroon versions too, with photos you can page though and laugh as it flips between looking clearly purple and clearly red in every other photograph. Cameras!!!)

Anyway now we turn to the Watsonian explanation, which seems to run like this: the men at the 4077 were just casually passing their robes around to each other. It's about the intimacy in the face of war, etc. I can see bathrobes going missing when they bug out, getting stolen from the laundry by Klinger and scrapped for parts, being handed off to a poor cold Korean kid who needs it more, and then they need to get to the showers and one of them is like hey, just take mine, and then it’s his now. And eventually most of them end up in warmer-looking civilian robes than the Army holdovers that were being distributed early on, but Hawkeye, he just hung on to Trapper's.

And as a side effect, still looks like he's been injured in World War II.

New to Gotham? A useful friendly guide for the newbies at Gotham.

There's never a boring day in Gotham City.

The best view of the city is from the Wayne Enterprises rooftop. Entrance is for free during the weekend.

Came to Gotham as a tourist? First things first: why?

Red-lights and traffic rules are more of a suggestion.

If you're not from Gotham, and unless you have very good reflexes, avoid driving in the city and a very likely trip to the ER.

On the bright side, chances of bumping into the Waynes at the ER are high.

Sign our Changeorg petition for the making of 'Keeping up with the Waynes'. Don't question it, just sign it.

In Gotham, the 'It' movie (2017) is rated as A+ and classified as an educational documentary.

Although sort of infamous, and for some reason considered a Gotham attraction, 'Crime Alley' is literally an Alley of Crime. It should go without saying that visiting is NOT advised.

Metropolis might be safer and sunnier, but we got style.

Always look both ways before crossing a street even if its a One-Way street.

If still in school, don't make fun of the smart kids in your class, they are the most likely to answer a Riddler's Riddle and save you all.

Don't be surprised if your therapist turns out to be one of the Gotham's most wanted.

Improved universal antidote formula for laughing-gas and poison-ivy's pheromones (previous to august of this year) can be acquired for free at any Gotham Hospital.

Best coffee shop is the family-owned business on the corner of the ninth avenue at Old Gotham District. Rated as top 1 by Red-Robin and also positively reviewed by Wayne member Tim Drake.

Fan of art and animal-lover? There are a couple of handmade paintings by Damian Wayne that could be acquired at Gotham's Gallery. All earnings go to Gotham's animal rescue centers.

Most of the famous Gotham criminals are all professionals despite their funny names, do not underestimate them.

Think you're tough? Think again.

Have fun and enjoy your time in Gotham. It's kinda nice once you get used to it.

Batfam Leverage-ish AU:

Dick Grayson: Grifter

Barbara Gordon: Hacker

Jason Todd: Hitman

Stephanie Brown: Con artist

Tim Drake: Info Broker

Cass Cain: Thief

Duke Thomas: Counterfeiter

Damian al Ghul: Assassin

Bruce Wayne: Retired CIA agent

Bruce, instead of picking up a fursuit, goes to work with the government to solve crimes. He genuinely wants to help people, even though he often meets resistance or has some shitty ass coworkers. There's a ton of corruption, bribes, and red tape that stands in his way.

Still, Bruce thought he was doing good.

In his time, he often chased after Dick, Jason, and Cass. Tim and Barbara sometimes passed information to Bruce, which the man was willing to leave them alone for. It was a tentative alliance.

After a really shitty mission, one where the government covered for some horrific bastards that killed off children, Bruce quit his job. He couldn't stand working for people or an organization that would do that.

After quitting, he falls into drinking to cope. He builds up the Brucie persona by trying to forget what he's seen. No one in Gotham knew he was CIA. He just left for "WE work" a lot.

Eventually, someone hires him, Dick, Barbara, and Jason to work a case for him. Due to the appealing nature of fucking over the US government, Bruce agrees.

They finish the mission, and all realize that their little team can do good for others, even if they have to lie, steal, and cheat to do it. It becomes a full-time gig for everyone.

After a while, they run into a mission they can't do themselves. They need Cass's expertise, but she's notoriously difficult to get a hold of.

Tim, little the stalker he is, reaches out to Bruce and asks to meet. Tim has been watching their proceedings and wants to help them. He agrees to get Cass to meet up with them, but he states he can't promise anything besides that.

Cass meets them and determines they want to do good. Most of her thefts have been more of a Robin Hood type of deal, so she's actually estatic to work with a team that she can use her skills for good with. It goes well.

After a few missions, Tim puts them in contact with Steph. She wants to be a part of something like that and is already decent friends with Cass (through their connection with Tim).

Damian pops up by himself. He originally is supposed to kill the team, but he learns that Bruce is his father. He sticks around after that to see why Bruce does what he does.

Tim introduces them to Duke.

Quick note: Bruce worked as a CIA agent. In this AU, he's not happy with death/murder, but he's not exactly against it either. He won't allow it on missions, but he's not going to give shit to his team about it. With the power of AU, let's say Bruce rarely killed as a CIA agent. He tried all avenues he could beforehand (which is what makes Dick, Babs, Tim, Jason, and Cass initially respect Bruce).

The batfam as teacher comment section in report card.

Dick: Mr. Grayson brings a contagious energy to the class and his enthusiasm is well-appreciated. However, he tends to channel that energy very physically and while that may benefit his learning, it's a disruption to other students. This is a frequently recurring issue that I would like to discuss with a parent or guardian.

Translation – Is this kid ADHD because he won't sit the FUCK down

Jason: Mr. Todd has displayed remarkable attention to detail and a love of literature that I can only attribute to positive reinforcement at home, and he's always a pleasure to have in class. As much as I appreciate seeing him apply his lessons outside of school hours, I believe there are more productive avenues of discussing Shakespearean playwriting with his peers than what he has been reportedly doing. 

Translation – Stop biting your thumb at people

Tim: Mr. Drake continues to exceed expectations in his schoolwork, but his attendance and participation may become a detriment to his overall grades if unaddressed. I have caught him sleeping in class on multiple occasions but he has yet to provide me a reason why he is so tired. Additionally, last month one of our monitors caught him loitering in the bathroom with a note that I did not recall writing. 

Translation – Get some sleep and also you can't make your own hall passes

Damian: I have had the privilege of teaching the Wayne family through my decades at this institution and I believe that Damian takes after his father the most in more ways than expected. His grades are stellar and he is well-organized, but I'm noticing familiar and concerning traits in his attitude and social interactions. I am requesting a meeting with his parent to understand the full context so I can devise a plan for out how to best support him. 

Translation – Forget falling, the apple is still on the damn tree

Duke: Mr. Thomas has been a pleasure to have in my chemistry lab and is always willing to help classmates who are struggling. However, after last week's minor combustion reaction mishap, I think it would be worthwhile to review the lab safety packet that all students received at the beginning of the year. 

Translation – How did you set water on fire

Cullen: Mr. Row displays a passion for transformative literature and demonstrates a clear understanding of modern media culture that has helped him synthesize a lot of our complex readings. However, I'm concerned about his laptop being a distraction, especially with numerous incidences of him looking at non-academic material.  

Translation – Quit reading fanfics in class

Stephanie: You should be pleased to know that Miss Brown consistently keeps the well-being of her peers in mind. This semester, she launched a meal initiative for students whose needs could not be met by the school cafeteria. While we value her good intentions, she has been causing hallway obstructions and there are some regulatory concerns that we need to discuss. 

Translation – She sold pancakes in the halls without a permit

Cassandra: Although Miss Cain is relatively quiet in class, she continues to blow me away with her breadth of knowledge not just on class materials, but also interpersonal details. While this is a good skill to cultivate, we ask that she dial it back especially with our faculty. Additionally, please remember that the teacher's lounge is a staff-only space and students should remain in the common areas. 

Translation – She knows too much

Barbara: Miss Gordon is easily one of the best AP Computer Science students I've seen in my twenty years of teaching. She even went above and beyond the scope of our class to apply what we've learned to a greater school context. While that is deserving of credit, I'd also like to remind her that, in the future, certain ideas should be subjected to careful consideration before actions are taken. 

Translation – She hacked the lunch menu to make every day French Fry Friday 

Harper: Miss Row has a remarkable aptitude for the engineering process that exceeds beyond what students her age can typically grasp, and she is very inventive in her own right. That being said, I would appreciate it if she followed our lesson plans more closely and reviewed our guidelines for woodshop safety so everyone can continue to have a positive experience.

Translation – She made a working crossbow out of popsicle sticks

Carrie: Miss Kelley is a bright student who brings positive energy that is very much needed, especially in morning classes. However, she's been falling behind with several missing assignments at this point, and her explanations for why she cannot finish her work don't seem to be sufficient. 

Translation – "Killer Croc ate my homework" Yeah and I'm Batman

Kate: Miss Kane seems to be very eager to move forward to the next stage of her life, as evidenced by her Career Day presentation. While I believe young people should be free to explore their passions, I also think that Kate would benefit from some workshops outlining more feasible options. 

Translation – "Get bitches" isn't a career goal

Alfred: Mr. Pennyworth is easily one of the best students this institution has seen, both in his academic record and extracurricular activities. He recently expressed interest in the sharpshooting team, which I will not discourage him from, seeing how highly accurate he is. As of this year, I will be retiring as the coach for the team, but I wish him all the best.

Translation – I'm not about to get on his bad side

Selina: Miss Kyle's resourcefulness continues to astound me. Earlier in the semester, she forgot her locker combination and quickly improvised a mechanism to safely unlock it using only the materials around her. The speed and accuracy with which she did that will surely benefit her in the future. 

Translation – Did... did she just pick a lock with another lock?

Bruce: No further comments. 

Translation – whatthefuckwhatthefuckwhatthefuck—
