Saw you were taking art requests for DamiColin and I was wondering if you'd be up for drawing trans masc Colin, with Damian as the ultimate supportive boyfriend? It's always been my personal headcanon for them! Maybe the two of them at pride?
heyyy i know this is a uhhh late response but here!!! not pride, but something more personal. i started T a couple months ago and was inspired to draw this (due to my own anxiety) :^)) thus remembering this ask lol
my thoughts behind this: colin is terrified of needles. he has huuuuge amounts of medical trauma, and so the whole process of going on testosterone was already super daunting enough. getting his prescription every month and getting blood work done even through bruce's trusted sources (leslie), it's still a huge struggle. but despite it all, he wanted injections instead of gel. hes viewing it as... exposure therapy for himself, even against the suggestion of those closest to him.
hes successful sometimes. some days the simple euphoria of knowing hes becoming who he wants to be is enough to pass through the anxiety of the needle. but some days are harder than others. some days his past comes to haunt him, leaving his hands shaky and unable to pass through the mental block needed to pierce the needle through his skin.
when that happens, damian is always there. always there to guide colin through the panic and the tears, willing to lend a gentle and loving hand to ease his anxieties. when colin can't do it, damian will, and that goes for a lot of things even past this weekly ritual.
i love them very very much <33333
feel free to send more requests! i promise ill answer them a loooot faster than this one
