When Knuckles and Rouge get married, he doesn't know what to expect.

He's very traditional, with a suit and tie and Echidna family markings on his face. Rouge on the other hand, he doesn't know what she's going to wear. Perhaps something skimpy? A plain white mini dress? He doesn't care, but with a few minutes until he sees his bride he's curious.

Needless to say, he's absolutely blown away when she walks down the aisle with a long gown and an even longer veil covering her face. There are so many intricate details, and her arms are wrapped in the lace, and she looks beautiful.

Knuckles' smile widens as he realizes she's not wearing her usual diamond earrings, but instead an emerald that matched the master emerald.

His bride is perfect.

Zoey definitely wears cat ears

Either realistic ones, plastic ones with a vague cat shape, ones that blend in with her hair, colorful ones, etc

Doesn't matter what kind, she loves cat ears

Her favorites are the ones that the girls and Bobby got her

Mira got her cutesy black ones that match her hair, but she pierced the pair herself so they would have earrings

Rumi got her a headband with the cat ear shape made out of pink and purple flowers to represent her and Mira

Bobby usually doesn't let her wear them for concerts bc the fans tend to either infantilize or sexualize her, so he ordered a gold attachment that she can add to her headset. To the fans it's just funky little triangles, but she knows and wears them every show

I don't feel like Sirius would be mad if he came back from Azkaban and Remus was dating someone.

I see a lot of him being the jealous type and all, "why didn't you wait for me?" But I KNOW he would want Remus to get back out there even when he's gone.

In fact, if Remus didn't date, Sirius probably would be like: "why the fuck?? did you not try??"

He would hate if Remus was all alone those years. Mourning him, wasting his love on a prisoner when so many others would have wanted to share it.

Sirius just wants Remus to be happy.

I love Jegulus, I really really do, but I COMPLETELY understand Regulus hating James for the rest of his life.

He "stole" his brother.

I don't give a FUCK if Reg and Sirius make up, there could always be that lingering knowledge of "you were what (helped) drive him away in the first place."

Kind of in the same light as I see Jinx (in happy au's) being able to tolerate and respect Cait, but never forgetting that she WAS a part of the wedge between her and Vi.

Reg can live his entire life never loving James Potter in any sense of the word, simply because he was the one to take away the first person he ever loved.

No amount of kindness or sun can erase the fact that James helped hide the stars from Reg.

Tim, at Dick's house in his room: I should ask Dick when dinner's ready. Hey Dick-

*Distant Romani cursing from 2 rooms down*

Tim, now content to go hungry: Okay! Nevermind.

what if instead of "sybau" standing for "shut your bitchass up" it stood for "suck your boobs and urethra" or perhaps "suck your balls and urine"

Life bc there is less than 50 KoryBabs fics on Ao3...

"Waiting On a Miracle" from Encanto but it's actually Stephanie Brown and her curse of being undermined at every step of her life's journey.

"Tongues & Teeth" by The Crane Wives is every single ship Damian Wayne has been in, ever. Either he's the one to sing it or his partner is. No in between. His love life is a forever cycle of "I'm not good enough for you" and "I worship you."

Barty Crouch Jr. is the biggest Charli xcx fan known to man

Writing Hack: Just torture yourself into writing!

For example, I've been procrastinating on a fic for foreverrrr, but I've also been watching Harley Quinn on HBO.

SPOLIER!! So right when I get to the kiss scene after they escape the pit, I immediately pause that shit.

And what do I do? I didn't let myself watch the rest until I was done writing 😁!!

Worked like a charm. Every time I stopped writing, I gazed longingly at my phone, then I got back to work!!

Tim Drake wears those baggy, over your heel, skater jeans.

And don't get me wrong, he looks fly as hell, but he also lives in bumfuck Gotham City.

On good days, there's a puddle of water from a leaking pipe. On bad days? Pool of blood right on his way to the skate park.

Every day when he lived at the manor he would come back with his jeans DRIPPING w/ mystery liquid, and Alfred would just shake his head disappointedly.

Tim eventually invested in those zipper jeans that you turn into jorts. Not to wear them as shorts, but because Alfred kept making him strip to avoid getting the floors dirty.

He thinks he's safe when he moves in w/ Bernard, but Bern makes him do the same thing. It's fine tho, bc he switches back to regular jeans so he can take his pants off when he gets home to Bernard😏😏

Me when I realize that learning lore and knowing wtf is happening in Batman media means ACTUALLY reading:

[luminesick]

Robin! Jason, posting to his tumblr: Sorry guys, can't post the chapter tonight. My adoptive dad wants to spend time with me!! We're spending the night together gaming. Hope y'all understand, this means a lot much to me.

#omg #screaming crying throwing up im so excited #but shh don't tell him #he still thinks i'm tough lmao #ao3 author.... (blah blah blah)

Tiny! Tim, reading the post: FUCKKKKKKKKKK

He doesn't care about the fic. (Okay he kinda does, Jason is a damn good writer) But if @/grammerpolice (jason) and his dad are in, then that means Robin and Batman aren't gonna patrol, which means Tim can't take his photos.

(dnt ask me how he knows that the blog belongs to Jason, we all know he'd find a way to figure it out)

[luminesick]

i have this concept for jason todd art that i'm in LOVE with but it would NOT look well w/ my current art style.

mark my words in approximately 6 months i will learn realism and make the masterpiece of my dreams.

(i say as the horse of delusion and crushed dreams nods vigorously at me)

A right of passage when it comes to being a batkid is being the fattest Hozier fan to man, I just know it. They all LOVE that man. Like, killing is off the table but for him? Still no but damn is it close.

Citizens of Gotham are so done w/ it by now, because their vigilantes are always screaming their heads off.

These are not "Oh, yeah I like Hozier" fans, these are literal tears streaming down my face, falling to my knees, yelling and crashing out over a single snit-bit of his music, Hozier fans.

Any-who!! Little vote on who y'all think the biggest fan is bc it could genuinely be any of them. (My current picks r Steph, Tim, Damian, and Jason)

Who is the Biggest Hozier Fan?

Babs

Dick

Cass

Jason

Tim

Steph

Duke

Damian

Confession: Timber is actually one of my favorite DC ships if not THE favorite, but I've never read any of their comics (aside from WFA).

Like I genuinely just got queerbaited into the Batfam fandom through this ship (damn you, DC) but I've still never read any thing aside from the Valentine's day comic and the occasional panel on Tumblr or Pinterest.

So like- any recommendations are greatly appreciated because I really want to get to know my boys outside of fanart and fics!! (Also kind of want to write a fic about them, but don't want to get their lore and characterization wrong)

Please drop the comics I need to read/buy about them 🙏🙏. Oh and Darla too!! I want to know about her as well 😁😁

[rhysska]

Oh my god okay. Only reading wfa and the valentines day special is so painful wow (in the nicest way possible). But they're my favourite as well so I'm happy to help!

Most important is Batman: Urban Legends #4, #6 and #10.

These show us how Tim and Bernard's first date goes and a bit of development with Bernard. We mainly see this from Tim's perspective and there's some awesome analysis of it.

Second most important is Tim Drake: Robin. (Off topic I never realised he called Pie, "Pal" in this panel. That's so silly)

This is where we see the most of Bernard, especially in current comic canon. It focuses on Tim's life at the marina and it's very silly and cute and occasionally angsty. We also get multiple issues from Bernard's perspective! Fair warning, the artstyle of the first 6 issues is an aquired taste. I personally don't mind it but alot hate it.

And to finish the trifecta, his original appearances in Robin(1993) #121-#129. (And #149)

This also services for Darla content but I'm sure there's people who are much better versed in darla content than I am. This is where we first meet Bernard! His obsession with conspiracies and getting a rise out of Tim starts here.

He also appears in Batman #631 but I reccomednd you read the full war games arc to understand what happens.

There's more like a brief appearance here (Batman (2016) #132) but finding them all is more effort than I'm willing to do right now.

[luminesick]

AHHH THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

And yeah ik the comics I've read of them are...questionable...but thanks to you I can change that!! Tysm!!
