#batarangs

[violentbat]

Do we think random people in Gotham find Batarangs wedged into walls or lying around and decide to take a shot at throwing them, and it slowly becomes a Gotham city staple you can play at the arcade/bar? (Everyone is surprised at how hard it is to throw them with accuracy and the force needed to have any sort of impact)

The Batkids delight in either pretending they don't know how to (as civilians)/alternatively flirting by demonstrating their expert ability to nail phone numbers to alleyways.

There are also definitely collectors who trade these Batarangs and organize them by era based on material, and you get extra acclaim if you know the provenance of the Batarang (fished out of the harbour or taken out of a GCPD squad car).

🦇 Bat Symbol Pancakes (aka “Batarang Dippers”)

So my kiddo requested Batman pancakes this morning, and we may have just invented something new: Batarang Pancake Dippers. Perfect for syrup dunking, little hands, and Gotham breakfast vibes.

⸻

✨ What You’ll Need

• Pancake batter (we used a healthier base: Ground up oats in the flour, oat milk, egg/Greek yogurt, vanilla)

• A Batman pancake mold (or a steady hand if you’re a chaos gremlin)

• Nonstick spray or oil

• Syrup for dunking (bonus: a little powdered sugar snow on top 👌)

🥄 Instructions

1. Preheat your griddle to medium heat (350°F).

2. Spray/grease the inside of the Bat-Signal mold.

3. Place mold flat, pour batter only halfway up (trust me, or you’ll summon The Blob of Gotham).

4. Cook until bubbles form, then carefully lift the mold off.

5. Flip the pancake, cook another 1–2 min until golden.

6. Trim the outer oval away → boom, Batarang Dippers.

7. Dust with powdered sugar, serve with a little syrup pool on the side.

⸻

💂🏻 Alfred’s Notes

• Thick batter = cleaner lines. Add a spoon of flour if yours is runny.

• Wipe the mold between pancakes for sharp shapes.

• Kiddo said “just the bat, not the oval” → instant dipper format. Genius.

🦇 Results

The Batfamily would be proud. Gotham is safe. Breakfast is served.

I love the idea of gothamites randomly finding batarangs all over the city and keep them like little treasures. When people visit gotham they try to find one as a souvenir. They probably sell on eBay like crazy

So I watched Batman Begins a while ago and I was wondering,

You know that scene in which Bruce is carefully crafting his first batarang, making sure to get the bat shape right before sharpening it?

Did he handmake all of them?

Logic says that he probably made some kind of machine that can replicate them faster than he, (or maybe that's Harold's job who knows) but I think the first option is way funnier

Can you imagine this man sitting at this exact table, for hours each week, making a new supply of batarangs all by himself so that he can go back to chasing villains?

Even better, can you imagine him picking them up after each fight just to spare himself some time?

Anyways I want an AU where Robin's only job is to fetch the batarangs
