i'm like 8 billion years late for posting the next chapter of masterpiece, but it's here! i also commissioned the amazing @amorkuku for some art of becca, ed, and al <3 (i tried to insert it into the chapter itself but i'm technologically illiterate so its going here below the link instead xoxo love you)
this is canonically how tim added the pants to the robin costume
I call this birdwatching, because he's a bird, watching.
(I probably stole that from somewhere)
Rant under cut :)
I keep forgetting that people read these things sometimes and reply to whatever I've written, so whenever that happens I'm like HOW DID THEY KNOW before I realise
I could've posted this two days ago, but I forgot, so here it is :)
I'll learn how to do backgrounds one day, I swear. And shoes. And clothes.
This feels super unfinished (probably the background), but I'm done with it. mostly because the cape started to look like flesh and I don't want to look at that anymore. Wish I could actually draw skin that well but eh. Looking at it now, the fabric of the cape looks weirdly heavy. But I did remember to give him a cape this time, so well done to me. It was very close, though.
I tried lighting!! And trying to contour stuff to shape and stuff!! I like the leg on the left.
I forgot to use a reference, mostly because I just wanted to get this pose out of my head, It's been stuck there for literally seven months and I've never been able to draw it properly without it being stable, if that makes sense.
Also fun fact, the actual image is super dark, because I have somehow made it a habit to colour with my lights off, so this image has an overlay of slightly red light over it :)
Here it is without that, and the colour background I usually draw on because white is too bright for my poor eyes

fan-made concepts for an animated show where they just look like that (it is cancelled after one pilot)
I WOULD KILL AND/OR DIE FOR THIS BABY ASSASSIN.
when I was younger I didn’t understand why “may you live in interesting times” was considered a curse in ancient greece.
I get it now.
Inspired by Darwyn Cooke's iconic Batman & Robin illustration, and the New Batman Adventures.

Dick who never ever discusses his own problems with anyone: We are a family!!! We should communicate our issues and feelings!!!
Jason who regularly airs out the family's dirty laundry over various rooftops, warehouses and other parts of Gotham: I'd rather die again!!!

"Bruce loves his children to infinity but sucks at communication" gotta be one of my favourite tropes.
What Bruce means: I miss you so much it hurts, you are a great hero, and I'm really glad that you still consider me as part of your life and share your thoughts with me.
What Bruce does: hums meaningfully in response to Dick's story.
What Bruce means: I'm sorry about everything that happened between us, I still love you and want to fix our relationship, I'm incredibly grateful that you don't avoid me.
What Bruce does: nods at Jason when sees him on the patrol.
What Bruce means: I deeply care about you, you are truly important to me, I worry about your health and I don't want you to repeat my mistakes, neglecting yourself for the sake of a mission.
What Bruce does: gives Tim a snack without any explanation.
What Bruce means: I'm very proud that, despite everything you were taught, you choose to be a good person and help people, you have a kind soul, and it's an honour to me to call you my son.
What Bruce does: gives Damian an intensive head pat.
Should I say that Cassie is a blessing?
They stare at each other's soul for a solid five minutes and it's basically a full ass conversation.

I hope @fantastic-nonsense won’t mind, but I found this in a reblog on another Batman post, and the origin post had swearing in it so I couldn’t reblog (my blog is dedicated to only PG content). But this part was a counterargument and is so good it works as it’s own post, so I really wanted to share it. This is an excellent breakdown of various valid reasons for this foundational element of Bruce Wayne’s character! Frankly, I don’t think this even has to be a “pick one” scenario; I could easily see all of these motives being applicable at once.
Dick and Jason's responses are the only correct ones
