I just saw how many followers this blog has as of today, and I’m in awe.
I have all those brilliant film, TV, and song writers who came up with such amusing, deep, or iconic lines to thank. I’m really just borrowing their work and creating a context around them based on comic canon (and, occasionally, my own headcanons). It won’t always be accurate, but the point is to make it fun and imaginable.
I see a quote, and 90% of the time, I’ll instantly have a character in mind to “speak” it and a situation in which the conversation could happen. That’s how rich the DC Universe is. Years and years of material to draw inspiration from.
I do re-word some dialogue to fit the context I want (or because the grammar seems uncomfortably off to me).
I love the slice-of-life kind of things, and I do imagine that even superheroes have very mundane, domestic (even silly) moments that give them joy in between those of chaos and conflict.
So, for those of you who follow because you’re just as amused, inspired, and fangirl-y as I am, thanks for dropping by!
(A shout out to those who support my other Tumblr blog, a-wayne-at-heart, as well!)
When you finally realize that you’re officially part of the Batfamily…
Duke: I don’t think I’m really cut out for a job where you disarm a bomb, steal a classified document, and then jump off a building.
Jason: *supportively pats him on the shoulder* Well, you could have fooled me.
Duke: That’s very kind of you to say, but I’m pretty sure my girlish screams in the face of danger give me away.
Jason and Tim: *watch as Tam walks away*
Jason: *elbows Tim in the ribs and gives him a “Why didn’t you talk to her???” look*
Tim: *rubbing his chest and hissing* Of course I find her attractive!It’s just that I had a burrito earlier and I was trying to be respectful.
Requires all employees to regularly attend team building/group therapy sessions, many of which he himself leads (though most don’t feel “obligated” to because they actually like him and his programs)
Spends majority of his time at work mediating between his brothers, honestly
Jason
Chief Security Officer
One of the main reasons the entire company can sleep soundly at night
He’s thought of everything – from shatterproof glass windows to extensive financial protection strategies to protocols to take down shady bystanders dressed as clowns to –
Tim
Chief Executive Officer
Deserves an award for putting up with a certain member of the Board of Directors, who he reports to
Would rather stay cooped up in his office, working overtime, than travel abroad or go golfing with other executives (and his personal assistant deserves an award for the daily number of “coffee runs” done in his behalf)
Damian
member of the Board of Directors (alongside Bruce, who, in spite of constantly having to deal with headaches caused by arguing with his youngest son, cannot deny the teenager’s business acumen)
“You were saying?”, he says as he glowers at another member who’s clearly perturbed by the cow standing beside him at the head of the conference table
