"YOU TWO LOOK LIKE A COUPLE"ft. The batgirls

Sunmary: A friend says that character and y/n look like a couple.

Characters: Barbara Gordon, Cassandra Cain and Stephanie Brown.

Tags: Kisses in hands, misunderstandings, flushing, fluff, crack, each reader for each batgirl has a diferent personality.

A/N: First fic in this account woohoo!!, I know this is short but I hope you enjoy.

Words: 433

BARBARA GORDON

"You know, you two look like a couple sometimes"

“Why do you mean?”

"You know, you are always together, you hold hands, and don't deny it to me, Barbara wants to kiss you so bad"

Barbara moved and nudged Dick a little annoyed, then adjusted her glasses.

"Dick, stop being a dick for a moment, can't you see you're making y/n uncomfortable?"

She said this while pointing both hands at you.

"Who says I'm uncomfortable, if people think we're a couple I'm more than flattered my dear babs-ouch!

"I see that you and Dick are equally annoying."

Barbara said, but this time laughing fondly, and maybe, maybe, a little blushing.

Seeing his blush, you blushed too.

"get a room please" Dick said jokingly

That only caused more blushes and complaints with laughter from both of them.

CASSANDRA CAIN

Cassandra doesn't know what to say. Literally.

Was Y/n and her really a couple, she didn't know, what exactly was it like to be a couple in the first place?

If being a couple was just loving someone then yes, but something told him that they weren't. not yet.

Cassandra gave Y/N a curious look, while waiting for her to answer her friend's question, "are you two a couple or something like that"?

Seeing Cassandra's look in response, you took her hand, and they left the place without saying anything else.

You took her to the next alley, took her face in your hands, and kissed her.

The kiss was short and tender, you wanted to be relaxed, you didn't want her to be scared.

She smiled a little, and gave you a soft kiss on the cheek.

I guess they were a couple now.

STEPHANIE BROWN

When Steph heard the insinuation that you were more than friends, she smiled mischievously, took your hand, pulled you close to her and said this (unfortunately for you)

-Steph,what?

She ignored you and continued talking, causing more blushes from you. Why did she have to be so flirtatious?

He took your hand and gave it a kiss. Too much pda for today.

-Wow, I didn't know that, but congratulations girls.

Before he could blurt out, to specify that they were not in a relationship as such, stephanie interrupted you.

-Thank you very much, y/n and I have to go now.

She took your hand and walked away.

-What was that steph?

-What?Can I not give affection to my lovely girlfriend?

You laughed, giving her a kiss on the hand in return for the one she had given you.

This time she was the one who blushed.

Just started my second play through of Gotham Knights, this time as Barbara. I have made a mistake. I thought Jason was the tank. He is not. Jason deals damage, Barbara absorbs it like a sponge and I love her for it.

#dc #gotham knights #jason todd #barabara gordon #there is a very real chance i'm going to go through this play through without unlocking any of her oracle abilities #they're nice don't get me wrong #but i've played through this game once without them #i can do it again #her other abilites are so nice!#damage resitance #healing #uniterupted attacks #jason's your main attacker #barbara is a tank #that said i already miss some of jason's abilities #he's the best at long range #and e had some cool grapling techniques #i will however persevere without them #somehow

more headcanons on the batfamily in hogwarts houses? i'm curious for your opinion. you can also include sub-houses if you'd like!

Oh, man. I'll just do the Batfam I know most.

-Bruce Wayne

-Bruce Wayne is the Avatar of Hogwarts Houses

-Gryffindor? Brave, helps others literally all the time

-Hufflepuff? Hard worker, patient, loyal

-Ravenclaw? Intelligent, witty, planning, knowledgeable

-Slytherin? Ambitious, cunning, resourceful and heritage (kinda)

-Dude's literally got every amazing trait whattheheck

-I think I have to put him in Ravenclaw

-But man is it a hard choice

-Bruce's intellect is such an important part of his character

-His other aspects are very important to his character, too

-But his Ravenclaw traits are what set him apart from other heroes

-He's "the world's greatest detective"

-Often uses wit and intelligence to defeat his enemies

-His intelligence is what makes him such a notable foe to villains

-I'm not going to get mad if he's sorted in the other houses, though

-Dick Grayson

-Dick's probably a Hufflepuff, but mAN is Gryffindor close

-Friendliest, kindest dude you will ever meet

-Is good in every universe, even in ones where Superman is bad

-Hard worker and very fair

-Believes in love, or hope or something

-Jason Todd

-Jason's a Slytherin

-The other option for him I was thinking was Gryffindor, but dude's ambition and willingness to do almost anything to get his way helped me choose

-He has big ambitions for how Gotham should run, and he's more likely to play dirty

-Not particularly cunning but extremely resourceful

-Tim Drake

-There was no doubt in my mind that Tim's a Ravenclaw

-Intelligent and witty

-One of the smartest dudes

-Has backup plans for his backup plans

-Tim's always right and will make sure everyone knows it

-Damian Wayne

-Textbook Slytherin

-The sneakiest, brattiest kid you'll ever meet

-Will also do anything to get his way

-Cunning and resourceful

-Obsessed with his "status" and heritage

-Barbara Gordon

-Barabara, similar to Bruce, has many of the houses' traits

-I can see her in any of them, Slytherin probably the least

-I think it also depends on her era

-Like, as Batgirl she was more Gryffindor

-But as Oracle she was more Ravenclaw

-So I guess I'll put her in Hufflepuff, which she had during both eras

-Hard worker, loyal, kind and helpful

-Puts others first

-Stephanie Brown

-Steph I'd maybe put as Gryffindor?

-Admittedly I don't know much about her

-She seems pretty headstrong, though

-Determined and stubborn

-Cassandra Cain

-Similar to Bruce and Barbara, I can see a little bit everything in Cass

-I landed on Hufflepuff for her, though

-She's very loyal to the Batfam

-Extremely caring and helpful, as well

-Sweetest girl ever

-Duke Thomas

-Duke's a Hufflepuff

-Pretty soft spoken

-Extremely friendly and loving

-Hard worker

-He's very sweet

-Kate Kane

-I think I'm gonna put Kate in Ravenclaw

-Disclaimer though, I don't know too much about her, either

-Intelligent (she was in the military)

-Very witty and knowledgable

-Also tends to be a realist

-Alfred Pennyworth

-Probably a Hufflepuff

-Very hard working and loyal

-Patient and kind

-With his loved ones through thick and thin

-(Bonus) Selina Kyle

-Also probably a Slytherin (This family- geez)

-Very cunning and sneaky

-Will also do anything to get her way

-Ambitious and resourceful

Thanks for the ask! It was fun!

24, 42, and 49 for the last character you were thinking of/searched for

24. Ship(s) that makes you cringe.

dickbabs SWEEEEEEEEEEP

its actually incredible to me that i was completely neutral on barbara and dick as a couple before the current romance arc involving them written by TOM TAYLOR (<-enemy) in the current nightwing run. The thing is that i think theyre cute as a couple but only when theyre batgirl and robin. I think it was like a cute kid crush thing that they grow out of. and even though thats my ideal dick and barbara in birds of prey were pretty cute too (especially with the added comedy of dick gnawing off his arm with jealousy because he thinks ted kord is stealing his girl when in actuality. Um. hes not.)

dickbabs vs dickory is such a stupid ass team jacob vs team edward argument but its becoming increasingly harder not to want to shoot them both with missiles whenever i see them now. and that has to do both with what dc is doing to my girl barbara and also tom taylors writing right now is obviously him trying to own the haters and its so embarrassing and cringe. which is sad bcuz oracle and nightwing are two of my absolute favorite gotham heroes (well bludhaven for dick. yknow what i mean)

42. What’s a fandom trope you hate?

i resent bea being reduced to boosters sassy third wheel to his and teds relationship especially since its like my favorite thing that booster and bea are like funhouse mirrors of eachothers mental illness. like why does booster get all the fun in being fucked up and crazy. beas crazy too! did you see what she was doing with sigrid nansen! beatora has so little fancontent in comparison to boostle but both relationships have a lot of parallels with eachother...(listen i know my tags ratios are uneven as well but i promise i have more in the back)

49. What’s [x]’s worst character trait?

hmm well on the topic of barbara gordon, and i need to preface this with saying that i dont hate this about her i actually think its awesome and interesting. I dont hate any of my faves worst traits its what i love hte most about them....

I love that shes straight up not very good with kids. Shes good buddies with tim because hes a super genius little boy so he can hang with her on her intellectual level. but barabara gets frustrated easily and impatient when people arent as smart or as capable as her. and i think thats awesome and really interesting. shes not cruel by any means and im thinking specifically of her mentorship of cassandra cain in batgirl 2000. throughout the whole comic they have a very close sisterly bond as barbara, as oracle, mentors her in being batgirl. For anyone who doesnt know cassandra, she cant read and is non verbal most of the time. when she does speak its in short or one word responses and a lot of times she copies what she hears on tv or mixes up words in her inner monologue. Here she needed to read a kill switch phrase to stop a robot from fucking shit up, but she cant read what it says and barbara snaps at her.

this causes a rift in their relationship for a long time and they dont speak for a lot of it. to be fair barbara here was uunder a ton of stress and was operating on like 1 hr of sleep and she did apologize but this really hurt cassandra and she didnt accept her apology (right away)

while reading this does hurt its one of my favorite barbara moments because its like. shes multifaceted bitch. her snapping at her in this way makes sense and is believable for her as a character. barbara has her strengths and her weaknesses and I just think putting herself at the level of teenagers is one of her weaknesses that i think is really interesting

#asks #kind of a long one. srry

More on my Reverse Robins AU, this time with the Batgirls. Going off the general premise of this AU (Namely setting aside anything after Damian’s introduction/ the Batman reborn era for now. (I might come back to it… idk)), we’re not counting Stephanie’s time as Batgirl which means we’ve got two Batgirls (three if you count Helena’s brief stint, but she’s in the middle so it doesn’t change.) My ideas for this part is much looser since I’m only about 20 issues into her Batgirl run. Ideas from people who know about her are welcome.

Cass is the first Batgirl. She’s older than Steph, shows up in Gotham as a young adult a few years into her tenure as Batkid. Becomes Batgirl independently of Batman. Maybe she wants to emulate him as part of her drive for redemption. I’m just not sure what exactly her time as Batgirl looks like. There’s probably still the meta re-writes her brain so she can understand language plot point. I’m really liking her relationship with Barbara so far in the Batgirl comics, but that’s obviously not happening here. I’m not sure if she’s got someone else like that in her life and if so who it would be. She isn’t adopted by Batman in this AU, but they work together as allies on occasion. (Steph thinks she’s kick-ass and cool. Probably has more than a little hero-worship for her.)

It’s not the Joker who forcibly retires her. He was after Barbara because of her connection to Joker. (Also, I’ve decided the Joker is a c-tier batman rogue at best in this AU prior to it’s version of the Under the Red Hood Arc) Possibly it’s Shiva. The details are still fuzzy.

I can’t see Cass taking on the Hacker/Information Broker roll in the same way that Barabara did as Oracle. At least not with computers, too much reading and text there. I could see her being an information nexus in a more word-of-mouth type way. Maybe she has a network of all the people she’s ever beaten up who owe her favors. Maybe she does consulting with her ability to read body language. I think her working with the suicide squad could have some interesting stories. (Though I haven’t actually read any suicide squad comics, so idk.) I could also see her as the sort of weathered martial arts master master who has a steady stream of students who come to learn from her. Maybe she uses them Birds of Prey style to fight crime. I do think Cass should be friends with Dinah Lance though. I think they would have a fun dynamic.

What this brings us to is No Man’s Land, a comics arc that I care about a perfectly normal amount.

Barbara Gordon, freshly graduated from high school, volunteers to stay with her father and step-mother in No Man’s Land out of a stubborn sense of civic pride. She wants to help desperately but as one of the youngest people in the Boys in Blue contingent and also the commissioner’s daughter, they keep her as sheltered as they can. She ventures out further into Gotham on her own, scavenging, keeping her head low, looking for information. It’s on one of these expeditions that she runs into Cass.

Cass stayed behind in Gotham. She’s running her own little corner of it. She’s convinced by Barbara’s determination and enthusiasm to start training her. Later, won over by her heart and the necessity of acting when Cain is sent after Jim Gordon, she gives her the Batgirl Mantle.

(In this AU, I don’t think Helena takes on the Bat mantle even though I do love that plot point. Steph stays in Gotham when Batman vanishes. She never quite left the city in the way that Dick did. She was Batman/Batwoman (haven’t decided yet) during the Knightfall saga, she takes on some of that again.)

(If Helena does take up the bat and is treated as Batgirl like she was in comics, Cass takes exception with her claiming of the mantel on grounds of her moral code.)

Barbara does not tell her father about Batgirl. For one, that’s her dad and she’s an adult now. For another, Gordon is in the middle of his mad at Batman phase and she’s just not going to get involved with that.

She continues to act as Batgirl throughout No Man’s Land, receiving mentorship not only from Cass, but also working with Spoiler and Azrael on occasion. Batman knows who she is. He makes some pointed comments but honestly isn’t as much of an ass to her as he could be.

Regrettable, I think Sarah Essen still dies during No Man’s Land. Not at the hands of the Joker because he’s dead in the universe, but whoever Batman’s number 1 evil rogue is. Batgirl isn’t able to save her in time. She internalizes that.

Barbara continues to act as Batgirl after No Man’s Land, fighting crime, kicking ass, and receiving mentorship from Cass. She goes back to college, at Gotham University this time instead of the Ivy League school she was originally accepted into. (She left when No Man’s Land happened, making the idealistic sort of stand teenagers are prone to doing.) She hangs out, fights crime, and occasionally flirts with Robin who’s cute if a little young for her. At some point she probably learns that Bruce Wayne is Batman and has to process that fact. Still doesn’t tell her dad anything. Fun times, fun times.

Widely hated Evil!Babs character assassination arc and Dick becomes Batgirl during the Batman!Reborn era

Throwback Thursday: “But Sometimes They Hurt”: The Disability Representation of Barbara Gordon as Oracle

“But Sometimes They Hurt”: The Disability Representation of Barbara Gordon as Oracle Despite backlash arguing for her cure, comic book writers John Ostrander and Kim Yale persisted in their portrayal of Barabara Gordon as the superhero Oracle, being the first to revive her character after her apparent death in the story The Killing Joke, wherein she was paralyzed (Ostrander 1990). They let her…

Dick: We just solved a hectic, deeply disturbing string of crimes...We should go out!

Tim, not hearing over the sound of the coffee machine: Oh are we taking someone out?

Jason, looking up from his book: Oh, who we killing?

Damian, coming in just as Jason speaks: Are you really planning an assassination without me, the trained ninja assassin?

Steph, just having ended her phone call with Cass: Murder? How do we make sure Batman never finds out?

Babs, having caught the last part over comms: It wouldn’t be so hard...there are lots of things B doesn’t know.

Dick: No murder! I was suggesting that we go out clubbing and everyone twenty-one and over gets blind drunk.

Tim: Over twenty one?

Steph: That’s ageist of you, Dick.

Damian: You’re a facist, Richard.

Jason: Very hypocritical of you Dick.

Dick: Okay, okay. How about we just watch a movie?

Tim: Well...I haven’t seen the latest John Wick movie yet.

Jason: Eh, it’s not like I’m doing anything else.

Steph: I’ll order pizza.

Dick: And I’ll make some popcorn.

Duke, quietly to himself: What the fuck?

“anything but a cup” challenge but it’s the batkids on patrol

Dick fills those syringes he uses for various antidotes (scarecrow’s toxin, venoms etc) with residue milk from that morning’s cocopop cereal & occasionally squirts it into his mouth.

“Gotta control my intake to last the night.”

“literally no one asked.”

Tim fills the hollow bit of his bowstaff with coffee, sticks a straw in its side and downs it like a kegg.

“TIM - “

“time is a conept, coffee is now.”

“he’d make such a good college frat boy.”

Dami fills the capsules of his utility belt w apple juice and just cracks them open like eggs.

“how can you even tell any of those apart?”

“ever heard of the game russian roulette?”

“. . . “

“i’m kidding, the smokebombs are much lighter but no one else trying to steal them needs to know that.”

Jay fills his bullets with straight up vodka and downs them likes shots.

“ they’re literal shots.”

( thumbleweed rolls past the rest of the batkids )

Steph has packets of soda under her costume with straws that can extend to her mouth.

“what if someone punches your arm and they burst?”

“I treat this as training practice.”

“huh.”

“PLEASE don’t give Bats ideas.”

Babs always comes prepared with solid smoothie orbs that dissolve in her mouth.

“Just have to make the rest of us look stupid, huh?”

“It’s my job ;)”

Duke drinks hot chocolate from his helmet like soup.

“Hey, can I - “

“No, go back to your syringes, Dick.”

Cass, clueless sweetheart Cass, gets a bottle of water and makes everyone feel like idiots part ii

As someone with (depending on how you count) 1-to-12 siblings, I just want to say I feel very represented by the Batfam, and that every single dynamic there is incredibly accurate. I too would kill for, die for, murder, completely ignore, never lift a finger to help, prank, sass, mock, avoid, flip off, provoke, defend, defame, proudly slander, cry on, comfort, and disavow all connection to any and/or all of them depending on the hour, day, mood, person I’m talking to, who may witness it, who I’d have to align myself with, what each of them’ve done to/for me recently, how much hot water was left in the shower, whether my leftovers were still in the fridge, whose hair was clogging the drain when I woke up, how petty I was feeling, the general position of the stars, and how funny I thought it would be.

Never forget that Barbara was Cass’ Mother long before Bruce even considered Cass as his daughter, let alone actually adopted her.
