listen, listen-

batman is a Big Grown Man. robin? a smoll child. any robin. specially at first. now hear me out

bruce can leap longer distances than a robin. i know they have graple hooks, but! lets ignore them for now

imagine: they need to jump from one roof to the next. bruce? no sweat. Tiny Child? problem.

solution: lil baby robin carried piggy-back style (or better yet: front clinging like a koala) as big batman leaps across rooftops.

carrying and letting down every other rooftop is a waste of time, so until they come across a crime, batman is just kangaroo-ing robin around

that is all, thanks for coming to my ted talk

I don’t remember if I posted about this but several months ago our neighbor’s giant English mastiff (who used to live here and keeps coming over) attacked our 10 year old golden retriever, Lilah, and left 7 puncture holes and lots of abrasions on her face and neck. The owners of the dog were super apologetic and offered to pay for any vet bills and dropped off a little goody bag for Lilah. I cleaned and disinfected everything twice a day for 2 weeks and she was fine. Anyway, Sunday their dog gets out, comes over (it’s a quarter mile between our places) and starts attacking Lilah again! I wasn’t home but my friends who had just parked their trailer in our driveway were here and got the dog off Lilah and the owners showed up right after that looking for her. When I got home and heard what happened I reached out to the dog’s owners and it was agreed on both sides that next time their dog comes near mine their dog is getting shot. I hate that but I understand there’s no foolproof way to keep their dog in and it’s understandable that their dog loves our house because they lived with her here for 5 years, but I love my old girl and she deserves to be safe on her own property.

i was reading a fic, and i had an angsty idea.

danny, working at WE. and something something concerns about him going rogue or keeping secrets, whatever. bruce, or various bats depending on where in time this is set, investigate and stuff, and meet danny A Lot in civilian personas. and dnany starts getting very paranoid and scared! until he has a full on breakdown. bat(s) don't realize how badly they are affecting danny until they get close to him again (mayhaps after determining he is fine and innocent and whatever) and he flinches. he sweats. he looks pale. he shakes. maybe a lil anxiety attack, as a treat.

and the bat(s) realize they done Fucked Up and made this innocent WE employee scared of them. not as the bats, but their civilian personas. they realize that was workplace harassment. and fuck why didn't they realize sooner?!

it's too late. the damage is done.

hmmmm

ok

l i s t e n

body needs to be stabilized. halfas? fucking freaks. the body is a clustereuck on a good day, imagine if it suddenly half isn’t even human anymore, and the rest is bloody Thoughts and Goop

new halfa danny? Bad Time.

vlad? his halfa senses are tingling. his ghost side says “a baby!”, his human says “my godson?!”

mix mix mix, preheat oven

fenton parents? wanna dissect ghosts. danny? unsafe at home and literally falling apart, what the fuc-

mix more, stick in the oven to cook

vlad “kidnaps” danny!

keeps him safe, helps his body stabilize, makes sure he is happy and healthy and whatever (and this works through the power of fanfic, danny is a-ok with it thanks to “i’m the author and do what i want”)

the rest of the world? thinks vlad is Big Evil and kidnapped a child and is doing Bad experiments on him in his basement lab

no, officer, he needs all those scary tubes and to spend time in The Tank for his health, i swear!

“oh papá, don’t let them take me back!”

etc. idk. i’m sick af. but! idea B)

bon apetit

hdhakdjs lmaoo

okokok hear me out. i just saw a thing about bruce scruffing his kids to stop them jumping into tjings impulsively and such. yknow, ny the cape or the hood, just full in raing them off the ground by the clothing by the back of their nevks

and then it said about how bruce got all sad when he couldnt do it anymore bc they grew and aslo out of the robin suit there was mothing ti grab without hurting them right

SO

just imagine all the natkids having lil handles, firefighter suit drd style, and at first everyone’s like “why tf do all of you have this weird piece of thing in your suit, what’s it even for, what does it do??” bc they’re bats, so obviously this has to be thought out, no?

and they never tell and everyone wonders

until they see a batkid about to jump into something, do an impulsive thing, etc, and batman just shoot his hand out, faster than they have ever seen him move, and grans the handle. he may not be able to raise his children off the ground anymore but by fuck he can pull them back from their bullshit

just. batkids with parental control handles on the back of their suits. it’s the closest to a leash batman could get on them

(hiw would he put them there in the first place and why don’t the bakids just take it away? irrelevant. just enjoy the funny idea)

watched the mandalorian and grogu, really liked it!!

(mild spoilers ahead)

it had cute grogu (ofc), lots of parental din djarin (heack yeah), i loved rotta?? hello?? that was great. zeb was cool. the fantastic mini four were, well, fantastic, hahaha, i loved them. and not only ws din very badass in a cool way, grogu was as well! badass and adorable skagahdj

i really liked this vibes, and i liked ťdetails like the intro with the credits, they don't do that as much with movies nowadays, i don't think?

i also really liked that the movies was what it had to be, not more. it didn't attempt to be this big plot with lots of stuff shoved in. it told the story it needed to tell, and that was that. and it felt nice! specially since a lot of movies now are like all of them Need to be Huge and Exciting and A Lot. thos ine just... was. and it was oerfect for it.

yeah, i'm very haooy with it, will probably watch in the cinema again :)
