Velcro Baby Damian

More brutalia fam content! Headcanon Talia uses ig occasionally 😆

Bruce Wayne could probably not care any less for social media but is willing to pose for her stories.

Talia and Bruce looking spectacular at a gala event but Damian just wants Titus to be known.

Thank you to the amazing @ube-kun for these pieces :)) saw them post another fanart on tw about Talia and Damian and I found it so cute, had to commission too

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO LAW 🎊

Once again, I bring up how it would be funny if there were Gotham-ized colloquialisms or phrases. Just imagine the opportunities

Police Officer: if we’re efficient we can get these both done, two bats one explosion-

Dick Grayson, neck creaking as he turns around: so help me superman…

Red Hood’s Goon to another: it’s time to move on from this topic. let’s not beat a dead robin here

Jason: let’s not what a what

Tim Drake is a mermaid.

Well, sort of, kinda, unbeknownst to him or his parents.

It all comes to light when he’s going through some of his mother’s belongings that had been packed away after her death, trying to find something that would remind him of her. He was beginning to forgot her face, her voice, the way the said his name, or even if she said, “I love you.”

His mother is dead. His father is dead. He just needed something tangible to prove she was there.

Carefully packed away he find a ruby necklace it’s a simple golden chain and pendant the he recognizes from one of the Wayne’s galas, the way it refracted the light and made her eyes glow.

He takes it out of the box and it’s almost unnaturally cool to the touch which isn’t even the weirdest part. When he takes it in his palm, something just sort of shifts in him, like the pieces of a puzzle slipped into place and he just feels whole. If he didn’t know any better, he would say there was a flash of golden light, but that just had to be a trick of the light… right?

That night, on patrol, Tim is shot and takes a plunge into the harbor.

There wasn’t enough time to slip in his rebreather and the floatation device in his utility belt won’t inflate and he’s drowning.

Down and down and he can’t breathe until he just… can…?

This time there really is a flash of gold and tattoos cover his skin, curling and swirling down his arms and chest.

Scales replace skin, he grows webbed fingers, and honest to god gills. And that’s not even the weirdest part. Not, there’s a tail. He. Has. A. Tail. His legs fuse into a deep red, almost black tail.

That’s when Dick, as Nightwing, swoops in and drags him to the surface. Tim too deep in shock to fight it.

When they get to the surface and all parties involved realize what’s happened Tim is like: “Wtf?”

And Dick is like: “Wtf?”

And Batman just shakes his head because now he has to call Arthur.

In true H2O: Just Add Water fashion, when he dries, the tail and gills go away leaving him with the tattoos that fade into what looks like regular ink.

As it turns out the necklace is an Atlantean artifact that ignited some long-lost Atlantean heritage in Tim thought to be long since died out.

Arthur is smug, Bruce wants to punch him, and Tim has garnered the nickname Fishboy (a la Jason Todd).

Teen titans play strip poker once before it’s banned. This is Nightwing fault as the team finds out he’s very much very wearing a skintight onesie with a jock strap. No one looks him in the eye for a week. Some members turn and walk out when Nightwing is in the room.

was going through some timkon clone baby things that i ranted to my friend about and found an absolutely devastating message about tim and the baby accidentally ending up in the middle of shooting/villain attack in gotham as civilians and as soon as they get out and get to the manor tim just holds his kid close to his chest and completely shuts down on the couch, to the point where he's unresponsive to anyone, including the baby who pats his chest softly "daddy let me goooo" bc he CAN'T let go, he needs to protect his child and he won't be able to do it if he let go, so he just stays right there on the couch with a handful of a child and just. stares into nothing

I can't be the only one who noticed a certain flavor of racist undertone when it comes to people comparing JonDami with TimKon and SuperBat.

Like, people writing that when it comes to either Tim or Bruce being kidnapped or in mortal danger, both Clark and Kon would suddenly become the scariest mf on the planet until they got them back.

However, when it comes to Damian, Jon would be telling the kidnapper to let him go because "Damian would get bored and stab them to death" or something?

Another example is when the Supers are describing their respective Bats.

Both Clark and Kon would lovingly describe Bruce or Tim as 'smart' or 'beautiful' or 'equivalent of a God' or 'the smartest detective on the planet' while Damian.... Has rabies. Okay.

It doesn't help that Clark and Kon would often be drawn to have darker skin tones, while Jon's skin tone is lighter than Damian's (a canon thing).

Maybe I'm being the friend that's too woke, but that's as if they're conveying how POC/people with darker skins can either be the one who longed for their white/lighter skin partner, else it's the lighter skin partner that's being 'very tolerant'.

Absolutely, and you’re not being "too woke"—you’re picking up on a real pattern that’s worth talking about.

There is a noticeable difference in how jondami is often written or perceived in comparison to ships like timkon or superbat, and that difference frequently carries subtle (or not-so-subtle) racial undertones. In fandom, especially with legacy characters, there’s a tendency to center whiteness—or proximity to it—as the default for softness, gentleness, and emotional complexity. So when you see stories where Tim is treated like a fragile genius angel and Kon is the unyielding force of nature willing to burn the world for him, it's not just about character traits—it’s about who fandom allows to be loved that way.

With jondami, there’s a clear shift. Damian, who is canonically Arab and Asian, often gets flattened into tropes: the feral child, the knife gremlin, the “rabid” one. That’s not just quirky characterization—that’s racial coding. Instead of getting the same emotional depth and admiration that Tim or Bruce get, Damian becomes a punchline or an object of Jon’s tolerance, not his adoration.

Meanwhile, Jon—drawn lighter than Damian—is often the “sweet” one, the one who brings light into Damian’s life. That’s not inherently bad, but it gets weird when the dynamics start implying that Jon’s patience and warmth are extraordinary because he’s putting up with a darker-skinned partner who’s wild and violent. That plays into a longstanding racist trope of the “civilized” white (or lighter-skinned) person taming the “savage” POC.

And when you combine that with how people don’t write Jon going feral over Damian in the same way Kon or Clark do over Tim/Bruce, it’s not just a writing choice—it’s part of a pattern. Fandom often doesn't extend the same romantic or emotional softness to POC characters, especially those with sharp edges like Damian. That reflects broader racial biases in media and fandom culture.

So no, you're not imagining it. You're just noticing the kind of bias that slips under the radar unless someone points it out—and you're doing exactly what fandom should do: look critically at how we portray characters and ask, why is this dynamic only happening when the character of color is involved?

    I apologize for what I am going to say to you, but I have to. I am Ahmad allouh from Gaza, married with two children. We live in the shadow of war and destruction. I lost my brother, my home, and most of my relatives. We have nothing left. I ask you to help, even a little, so that we can survive and protect my children. Any amount, even a small amount, will save our lives.

Once Clark tells Batkids that if they need a safe space or some comfort, then they can come and visit his farm — he'll do his best to provide some help or support.

And he means it.

However, he is pretty sure that they will rarely use this advice of his. They are Batkids, after all! Independent and uncommunicative at the most.

Well.

Turns out he was wrong.

Damian and Dick are frequent quests in his farm, anyway — Damian hangs out with Jon, always appearing out of nowhere, and Dick visits them here and there — so it takes Clark some time to notice that others are here, too.

Tim starts joining them on occasions first. Mostly with Kon by his side, but he still steals sweets from the countertop that they hide from Jon, and Clark just... smiles. Okay. It is cute. Kon is a part of the family, and he is clearly in a good relationship with Tim. It is not bad at all.

...Until, Cass randomly appears in his study room out of nowhere, scaring the shit out of him, telling that she needed a quiet place to read the book.

And then Lois almost gets a heart attack when she wakes up in the middle of the night to drink water and bumps on Duke and his magnificent glowing eyes, because... Because Duke munches their cereals in four am???

(He was nearby after some mission. Was lazy to go to the safehouse. Whatever.)

Clark finds Stephanie sleeping with his sheep, caged in her hug later that week. When he returns home to tell Lois about it, he finds out that... She stress-bakes with Red Hood himself, while they both loudly shit on the Batfamily for different reasons (but mostly it is about Bruce, of course).

Alfred calls him a few hours later, asking to send the kids home for dinner.

Clark thinks that maybe — just maybe — moving out is not a bad idea, after all!

Red Hood: damn, my jacket has a hole in it

Nightwing, in a joking voice: you know What Else has a hole in it?

Red Hood: *rolls eyes* what?

Nightwing: my side *passes out*

Red Hood: !!!
