you ship Victoria October and Bruce Wayne right? Any hcs for their relationship?

I maaaaaay possibly be into the ship… Up to and including writing several fics and commissioning at least one drawing of them making out. And naming their ship. Whoops. But yes! I do!

-They had brief relationship, during the small period after Victoria realized she’s trans, but before she left Gotham and transitioned. 

-When she came back home years later, they both realized that those feelings never left, and they decided to try out a proper relationship.

-She sets up a lab in the batcave, where she typically works on trying to reverse the conditions held by Clayface, Manbat, Mr. Freeze, and other villains.

-The tabloids go nuts when they realize that Bruce is dating a trans woman. He responds by suing them into oblivion. 

-During breaks in patrol, Bruce drops by her apartment in Monster Town, where they drink wine, eat chocolate, and watch bad movies from the 1970s.

-Bruce has turned up to Justice League meetings with black lipstick marks on his face, and not even Green Arrow dared to say anything about it.

Brucetober date idea: At least once a month, Victoria and Bruce marathon old sci-fi, horror, or creature feature movies and playfully critique them; Victoria focusing on the scientists ethics, methodology, and “monsters” themselves while Bruce comes up with contingency plans (the sillier, the better)

Oh gosh I love this. I might write a fic about this. Like. I’m imagining them watching one of Romero’s Living Dead movies, and Victoria is going over how she’d make a vaccine, while Bruce is outlining his survival plan. It’s so cute.

When Victoria learned of the existence of Earth-11, she had Bruce use a Justice League portal to take them there. She met her counter-part, Victor, who is a trans man. They had a lovely double date with Bryce and Bruce, where they talked about there own experiences and SCIENCE.

*choked up voice* hell yeah

Bruce Wayne / Dr. Victoria October moodboard

During family movie night, Tim accidentally calls Victoria mom. No one comments because they’ve all thought of the Doc as that at some point

D'aw. I'm now going through all of the batkids and thinking about what they'd call Dr. October once they're comfortable enough with her and like.Dick: Doctober. He's also the one to come up with said nickname.Jason: Vicky.Tim: Mom and Doc. He goes back and forth.Cass: Mom.Duke: Victoria.Damian: Dr. October (he's also the only one to never once call her "mom" and everyone is alright with that, they get it).Steph: Doctober.Harper: Cass' mom.

How did the Batfamily find out Bruce and Victoria were back together/dating

-Bruce told Dick during a phone call. Dick was talking over a case with Bruce, and after they had made a break in it, Bruce told him that he was dating. Dick didn't recognize the name, but he was happy that Bruce was at least going out with someone.-Jason never really "found out" so much as he stumbled into Wayne Manor drunk one night, wandered into the kitchen, and found her drinking wine. They complimented each other's hair, and he still doesn't know her name. He just tunes out Bruce's love life whenever it comes up.-Tim found out while working a case with Bruce. Bruce referred to her by her first name, so Tim did some snooping, and he figured it out shortly afterwards. He didn't bring it up around Bruce, but...-Cassie found out when Tim ran into her batcave and told her the whole story. She made Bruce spit out his coffee when she told him that she knew who he was dating. Or rather, in her terms, "I know you've got the hots for the doc". She has once again been banned from watching old tv shows.-Duke saw Dr October texting Batman while she was going over some lab work with him for one of his cases. He pretended not to know until Bruce told him, at which point he feigned surprise.-Damian found out while stalking Bruce, as is his prerogative. He saw them on a date and then went to talk to Dick about it. -Babs, like Damian, found out through her usual Bruce stalking sessions. She then hosted a batfamily meeting (sans Bruce) so that everyone could talk about it.-Steph knew before Bruce and Victoria even got together. She got a vibe, and her vibes are never wrong.-Harper found out when Steph told her about "the vibes". She knows to trust Steph's vibes.

In old-timey steampunk AU: Victoria "This will work out just fine" Bruce "Just like the Justice Frankenstein" Victoria "Franky was too advanced for this society Bruce and you know it" Bruce "He tried to destroy parliament" Victoria "He just taking direct action!"

Victoria is totally 100% ethical in her mad science. She only used the body parts of horrible criminals in her Frankenstein. She probably shouldn't have used the brain of one too, but well...Mistakes were made.
