GAHH GAHH GAHH YES YES YES THEYRE BOTH AWFUL AND EVIL AND SO SO HUMAN I LOVE THEMMM
Bruce is very good at taking care of his own problems. He’s always been very good at it. Adults praise him for it all the time.
But then his parents died, and Bruce feels like he can’t do anything right. He knows he can’t. After all, if he was as good as adults said he was, then he could’ve saved his parents.
He should’ve been able to save his parents.
There is a darkness growing within him. Bruce doesn’t know what to do.
——
Alfred is grieving. Alfred is grieving, and he is also very angry.
He was just a butler; why is he now taking care of his deceased employer’s child? It’s not like the Waynes don’t have any other alive family branches, like the Kanes. But no, Thomas and Martha’s will clearly stated that if anything happened to them, Bruce would stay with Alfred in the Wayne Manor.
Now he’s forced to take care of a child he never wanted. How is that fair?
——
Alfred is angry all the time now but not in the way he used to be. Bruce knows it’s because of him. Every time the older man looks at him, he gets this strange look in his eyes.
Bruce can feel that it’s a bad look.
Maybe it’s because he’s even more useless now? It’s hard to get out of bed, but it’s even harder to fall asleep.
Loud noises make him jump, and the only thing he can think about is Mommy and Daddy hitting the floor, over and over and over and over and—
Alfred accidentally dropped something in the kitchen. Bruce doesn’t really remember what happened; it gets blurry and makes his head hurt to think about it, but the next thing he knows he hears screaming.
Bruce is pretty sure it’s coming from him. It sounds like Mommy’s.
——
The kid has a hair trigger. Alfred feels like walking on eggshells. Every small thing sends him into a raging meltdown.
Several times he has to stop himself from packing a bag and escaping in the middle of the night, fleeing back to England just so things could be normal.
Bruce doesn’t even talk anymore. Before the Waynes died, little Bruce talked almost nonstop in the manor.
Now an eerie quiet fills the space unless the small boy decides to have nightmares or another breakdown.
His silence is unnerving and creepy.
——
Bruce misses hugs.
Alfred doesn’t like being touched, not one bit. Mommy and Daddy loved hugging him and kissing him and just picking him up for funsies. But now no one will touch him.
Maybe it’s because they know he killed his parents. Maybe they think that if they touch Bruce, they’ll die too?
Bruce wouldn’t be too surprised…
It’s been months. Bruce doesn’t know why he isn’t better yet, why he keeps making problems for Alfred, why he’s so different now…
——
Alfred had calmed down a lot. He partially understands why the Waynes have left Bruce in his care; that doesn’t make it any easier.
Bruce has always been a particular child. Alfred would get him tested, but high society talks, and he doesn’t want to subject the young boy to even more press coverage.
Besides, what can a shrink do for the young master? Nothing hard work can’t teach him. Alfred worked through all his problems like that, and he turned out perfectly fine.
——
Bruce doesn’t want to start going to galas again…
Mr. Mauter always gives him strange looks, and now that Daddy isn’t here to give an excuse to pull him away, he’s even more afraid.
But Bruce is supposed to be fixing his own problems now. Alfred already does too much for him; he can see how exhausted he’s making him.
He’s the man of the house now. He has to be strong.
——
Master Bruce is talking again, even if it looks like it visibly pains him. Alfred is taking it slowly. Each day he finds he has more and more patience.
He allows the small child to follow him around as he completes his daily chores; he’s yet to acknowledge it yet. The first time he said something, Bruce scampered away quickly, and it took a week for him to start doing it again.
He’s taking it slow. He doesn’t want Bruce to be afraid to ask him for help anymore.
No hugs yet, but Alfred allows himself to pat Master Bruce on the shoulder.
——
Bruce can make cookies now! Alfred taught him the most perfect way ever!
They were Daddy’s most favorite cookies. Bruce feels a painful pang in his chest as he thinks about it, something that has happened very often in the past year.
Instead of crying, because Bruce is a big boy now, he walks up the hill at the back of the manor where Mommy and Daddy now rest peacefully.
Bruce lays down two of his best cookies on a nice napkin on Daddy’s grave.
He knows Mommy wouldn’t let Daddy get hungry in heaven, but it’s always a good idea to have a nice snack just in case.
——
Alfred distances himself.
He’s getting too attached. He’s now constantly reminding himself, Master Bruce, that he is nothing more than a butler.
——
Bruce had a fever.
He was delirious, and he accidentally called Alfred Dad.
Alfred no longer looks him in the eyes.
The darkness creeps in; it is all-consuming.
——
Alfred feels bad.
He catches Master Bruce practicing his smiles in the mirror, doing his best to look normal.
It’s fine. He needs to work him harder, make him understand that he can’t show weakness. Bruce will thank him when he’s older, when he is stronger, when he is better.
Alfred turns around and pretends not to see. The next time Bruce gives him that smile, he looks like Martha and tells him that he’s fine; Alfred does not argue.
——
Bruce can see that Alfred has stopped trying with him. It hurts, but he also wonders why it didn’t happen sooner.
He drops out of school.
He can’t be a doctor, not like his father was. He’s not worthy.
Gotham is his home. It’s always been his home. But right now? It feels more suffocating than ever.
——
Alfred finds them tucked away neatly in Bruce’s desk, right next to a half empty box of razors.
He reads each and every letter, his heart growing heavier when he realizes how many years ago it started.
Each letter starts the same, always addressing Alfred and saying it’s not his fault.
He holds two identical letters in his hands.
One, only a week after the incident. The second one, dated yesterday.
Alfred puts them back and never speaks about it. He can feel the guilt crawling up his throat and trying to choke him.
He knows Bruce knows.
They never speak about it.
——
Bruce knows he is evil. There is only darkness within him. He is destined to hurt and destroy the people around him.
He has to figure out a way to contain it, to keep it deep inside before he ruins everything.
Bruce only leaves a note when he goes. It is barely two sentences. Where is he going? He doesn’t know.
The entire world is open to him.
I saw a lot of Bruce in Supes merch and wanted to draw one too 😋

ARGHJH ARGHHH SUPERBAT IN THIS STYLE IM BLESSED
When the reclusive billionaire finally enters the spotlight you bet journalists Clark Kent wants to know what pushed him.
This is loosely inspired from the battinson and corenswet’s superman, a possible scene in the batman 2 perhaps? 👀
Currently swayed into the ‘Believe it or not, living with a British guy for decades WILL give Bruce an accent’ bandwagon.
It'd be so cute if it only slips out when Bruce does. He maintains a silence to Batman, when he prowls, — because Gotham isn't a gentle animal, so he can't be, either, — the lesser the chances to be recognized by voice, the better.
Nonetheless, talking can't be avoided forever. Especially not when dealing with scared people that have to be reassured.
“You know we’re basically CPS for adults, right?”
“Except we do our jobs.”
Martinez looks up at the sky, biting back a cackle, because he’ll be DAMNED if he laughs at this freak’s jokes. “I hate it when you're funny.”
He’s positive Batman frowns in confusion because he tilts his head, emulating a confused dog. “I’m not trying to be.”
“Oh, go FUCK yourself.”
Batman isn't interested in continuing their benter, much too busy with the crying child in the waiting room at the station. She's the tiniest witness there.
He must be the only vigilante carrying lollipops next to paralyzing gas.
The cadence in his voice simply burns off any dark intention associated with him. But if you listen as closely as Martinez does, you'll hear a poised arch in his accent.
“Here you go, love. Shall I get you a choccy while we talk to your father?”
Martinez sits and blinks for about a minute, which should earn him a record of some short.

"they were his colors" or whatever he said
I LOVE TUMBLR
Because none of my friends care about batman so I can't just be like "hey do you ever think about Bruce Wayne being in an empty house even before his parents died? Do you ever think about how he never actually had a real family that wasn't cracked or broken in some way? Do you ever think about a lonely boy in a big house watching his parents car leave spindled gates? Do you ever think about when his parents died nothing changed excepted he was now empty and peopled seemed to care he was alone?"
Lalala la Canon is my sandbox and I wreck homes and livelihoods but I keep the foundation and fix it to my whims lalala
I love my emotions and how it's like a mist like smoke from a cigar
It curls around my guts and then it rises when I'm upset to my throat and clogs and sweetens it so it's sticky and sickly sweet and then it waters my eyes and huffs out of my nose til it clouds above me and fills the space until everything is blurry
When I'm kinda nervous I imagine it and kinda feel it?? Traveling down my legs and shins and the ground absorbs it and my feet stick and leave residue until I feel lighter
And when I'm happy it twirls around my intestines and wraps around the muscles in my thighs and biceps and fills my cheeks and ears
I pretend to smoke it out when I'm feeling idk like I inhale it and let it swirl in my lungs before it rots and steeps out of my fingers and I blow it out
Like right now, it's in the soles of my feet and my wrist.It happens when I wanna like shake em it makes me really giddy?? I guess??
Does anyone ever think about Jason Todd and Dick Grayson having such complex views about eachither and they're so diffrent and they're SO SIMILAR AND VERISTILE.
Like Jason sees Dick as the favorite, the holy child the first his brother his kinda parental figure the sun but at the same time Dick burns out and takes up all the space and fills every nook and cranny of Jasons life and will always whisper in his ear and touch and LOVE and pity Jason.
And Dick sees Jason as his little brother a star a moon his successor he runs his hands across Jasons shoulders and wants to cry but at the same time he wants to rip Jason apart, want to scream and cry because robin was his, robin was taken and hes a theif that's allowed to do anything after he died even though dick died too dick suffered but he never suffered enough.
I love them im literally shaking
I need a watch the world burn anamatic with Vampire King! Dick grayson I need it so bad
Can't wait 4 madoka cosplay!
madoka kaname rose bow tutorial!
super easy and super cheap! efurrykindofkat and i made this in under 24 hours, but granted it was rushed a bit. even if given proper time to dry, it shouldnt take more than a few days to make. everything under the cut!
heres what you’ll need (you can get all this at michales for like <$20):
model magic
brown paint
pink paint
white string
a pack of wooden dowels
foam board
fake flowers
part 1: the arrow
there are a lot of different ways you could make this, and the way we did ours is not specific to the bow. if you find another method for the arrow that you like better, im sure it would work with this bow too! anyway, heres how we did ours. this is the shape reference we used:
we traced out the shape onto the foam board like so (it can be any size you want):
and then used an exacto knife to cut it out! be very careful cutting it out, you want it to be nice and smooth and there are a lot of sharp curves. make sure to clean it up and shave down any rough edges after its cut out
we decided to put a layer of modge podge on to seal it more, and then we painted it! this was a super simple paint job, you could probably make it fancier but we just did a simple pink
we added another coat of modge podge, and thats all for the arrow! nice job!
part 2: the bow
for the bow, we made the basic structure out of small wooden dowels. the ones we used were pretty thin, id advise using thicker ones so the bow is sturdier. anyway, we just got like a small pack of 10, each were about a foot long, got them at michaels for like $3.
this is the shape reference we used for the bow:
as you can see, its split into about 7 parts. so you’ll need 7 dowels for it. the bottom two are slightly smaller, so cut those down a bit. what we did next was cut the ends of each dowel at a slight angle, so that they would fit together nicer! after they were cut to fit, we hot glued each one together. very advanced stuff. we know.
to make them a bit stronger, each joint was wrapped in string a bunch of times. it doesn’t matter how it looks at this point, bc each joint is going to be covered in model magic. so yeah! thats the basic frame of it. next you’ll want to break out the model magic. cover each joint as pictured, two of them should be large diamond shapes, and the others should just smooth things out. make sure you really blend them. after you’ve done that, you’ll want to use the model magic on the upper 3 dowels to shape the thorns! really blend those in.
now you’ll want to take the fake flowers and pick out the one that looks the nicest to you. also pick out a branch with some leaves that look right; cut off the leaves and flower head, etc. this was how our bouquet looked before we cut it apart:
at the very top of the center dowel and very bottom of the whole thing, you’ll want to use a bit of model magic to build up where the flower and leaves will sit. once you’ve made the shape, the flower head should have a small remnant of the stem you pulled it off, so press that piece into the model magic so you’ll be able to glue in the leaves and flower later on. in the end, the basic structure should look like this!
while all the clay on the bow is drying, use more clay to make the small diamond gems. they should all be about the same size; they’re going to go on the diamond shaped parts of the bow so make sure they fit! you’ll need 4 total. once those are dry, paint them pink and seal them with modge podge or something similar. once all the clay on the bow is dry, start painting! paint the whole thing brown.
then, take the gems you made and hot glue them on in the right spots. also take the flower and leaves, fill the little hole you pressed in earlier with hot glue, and stick the flower and leaves in each one! sorry the bottom of the bow is white, this was taken before the leaves were put in the bottom and that part was painted.
finally, take your string, cut it to whatever length you want, and tie it to the top and bottom of the bow. use hot glue so that the knots don’t move around.
that should be everything! enjoy your new bow!!!
