Kid Batman: Smudged Eye Liner, Ripped Black Leggings, Somehow Always Has A Cat (Alfred Doesn't Know Where

Kid batman: smudged eye liner, ripped black leggings, somehow always has a cat (Alfred doesn't know where he keeps getting cats), lays in the garden and just stares up at the sky for hours on end

Teen batman: these eye bags are gucci™, soft pun sweaters, debate team, knows all the words to the elements song except adds cuss words to it, screams at the fictional characters in shows when they do stupid stuff, lays in the garden and reads comics/textbooks/any books he can get ahold of

Kid batman: feral witch child

Teen batman: unhinged aggressive dork

"Oh, Billy, sweetheart you don't need to ask for hugs. You can have all the hugs you want."

Once Billy gets adopted by Bruce he finds out that he really likes hugs and that Bruce hugs people when they're upset.

So in stead of asking for a hug, because he's too nervous for that, he just rubs his eyes til it looks like he was crying and then finds Bruce and refuses to talk about what was wrong, Bruce still hugs him.

This goes well until Billy decides he wants a hug every night and Bruce starts thinking he's crying himself to sleep.

This could lead to some very interesting conversations.

Or maybe someone sees him and figures it out, making sure he gets lots of hugs

Okay let's get things straight.

Telling people they need to stop doing something that makes them happy, like shipping something that's seen as problematic, to die or something like that is NEVER okay. If they aren't hurting anyone leave them alone. There are a lot of people harassing others in the Batman fandom because of problematic ships. For example, do I find ships between the batkids enjoyable? No. That doesn't mean that it would be okay to tell someone that likes those ships something harmful and negative.

We all view characters and their relationships in different ways, and even though I, sticking with the batkids example, view their relationships as found-family, doesn't mean that others can't see certain relationships in these stories.

Hell, there's been a canonical relationship between Tim and Stephanie, and while yes that does make me feel a bit uncomfortable, I'm not going to tell people who find that ship cute or nice to shut the hell up.

No, I'm not standing up for incest/batcest, because guess what. Most of the batkids aren't related or were even adopted by Bruce. Incest is not okay and I really encourage people to not ship things like Damian and Bruce (I have seen people that do), but in universes where the kids don't have familial bonds is different. Shit, the main reason I have "batcest shippers dni" on my tumblr is because in every headcanon or au I write the batkids are strictly siblings and I don't want to turn someone's ideas away just because I'm uncomfortable writing a ship.

It's okay to not like something and it's okay to express that, but do so in a healthy and respectful way, if the ship isn't harmful to the people reading/watching.

(also, scrolling past or not getting involved is a really good option if you feel the need to do something like this!)

the concept of selina x talia is sooooo fucking funny if you think about damian's reaction to the whole thing.

i mean, selina was engaged to be married to his father, this woman almost became his STEPMOM. that's a pretty big deal lmao. but she broke up with him, so damian didn't have to worry about it after.

BUT

imagine you're damian and your mom starts seeing someone. and you're like ew im 13 i don't care about this shit. but it gets serious and your mom wants you to meet them and you're like whatever i still don't care. but then BUT THEN your moms all like "damian meet your new stepmommy" and it's the FUCKING CATWOMAN AGAIN. and she is now dating your MOM. and you're just like *flips the table* ARE YOU KIDDING ME MOTHER?????

So I love the Billy Batson becoming an official Bat-son fics as much as the next fangirl. But and hear me out here what if we took canon and mashed it with this idea. Bruce knows that Billy is Captain Marvel. He knows the boy can look out for himself. And that he has friends in the magical community not to mention Clark on his side. 

But imagine Alfred or any of Bruce’s kids finding Billy. Tiny black haired blue eyes orphan named Batson? Where else is he to go but to the manor. And then Bruce, completely out of character, rejects the kid. 

His family is horrified and Billy won’t stop laughing even though he knows it’s just going to get him stupid amounts of monitor duty. Billy can’t wait to tell Barry and Hal about this, they’re going to lose it. Victor won’t ever let Billy live it down that the entire bat family keeps technically kidnapping him to try and force Bruce to take care of him.
