I just finished Gotham (the series) and I fucking hated it
Let me explain...
The first season was good, it showed penguin origin, how he started becoming a villain entangled with the Gotham mafia and all, how GCPD was corrupted through the core and all of that, it even showed villain characters in their pre-villain like Edward Nygma (the Riddler) and others...
But then, the seacon season came and they inteoduced Mr Freeze (my favorite villain), at the start of the small arc it was good, they showed why he was doing crime, his experiments, his moral and all... and his wife, the wife that in the canon stays alive, even if in ice, because of her illnesses, right?
Well, iin Gotham, for some reason, they decided to kill her, and that's when everything went down. The series continues for a total of 5 seasons
Don't get me wrong, they didn't ruin every villain (like my poor Mr Freeze) but like a good half of it, but some stayed good, or at least decently good, like: Penguin, The Riddler, Firefly, Scarecrow, The Mad Hatter (in some way), Joker (for a half, because at the start was good, then ruined it, then in the last episode made it good again) Others... well... Not so much, they even killed a bunch that appear in the Batman canon.
But in all off this mess, the last episode of the last season (so the episode where Batman kinda of appears) was good, not really good, but good. They tried to close and open some storylines, but still the end was good.
And just to say, they Killed Ra's Al Ghul (not once but twice), and used Nyssa Raatko (and called her Nyssa Al Ghul and proclaimed sole heir, so she's an only child?) and not Talia Al Ghul, just to say.
So would I suggest to watch the series? Nah, not really, if you want to explore a little but of the villain backgrounds, especially Penguin and the Riddler, then yeah, you'll maybe like it, but for the rest? Nah.
But this is just my opinion, do what you want with it.
Batman in an omegaverse always should be an alpha or at least someone without a smell , but not Bruce Wayne, he should be an omega, so hear me out:
Bruce Wayne by the public is considered to be a Homeboy (probably, idk the correct term, I'm italian), he's all smiley, a guy that continiusly adopts (apparently) random orphans, who is known for sleeping around a lot, at least befor Dick was adopted, the person that if you even go near his children will go crazy to protect them; kinda of boneless, who dosen't really works at his own company, basically Brucie Wayne (in the public eye, then in reality we all know the normal Bruce Wayne out of galas is not like that), an omega.
But Batman?
Batman is perceived as a menace for goons and villain, the darkness of Gotham, its protector, so an alpha, or at least what people think he is; probably he uses blocker so he smells like nothing or like an alpha.
and all of this makes even more sense because since the start bruce tried to separete the 2 personas (even in the canon) to protect his identity, so they're complete opposite, could ever Brucie Wayne be Batman? ptf NO, that's the point, so having a omega Brucie and an alpha Batman makes way more sense than having an alpha Bruce Wayne
I present to you, Revna my DnD caracther, because tomorrow (maybe) the campaign starts, so yeah, here to you this little inventor tabaxi, that act like the cat she is
that is ispired (for her looks) by this art
by Hoshizora, that I found on pinterest
and here the timelaps of like 3 weeks of drawing between breaks during uni classes
Anyway, I'll probably pubish it on ig too in my artaccount too but not on Twitter because of the AI problem, but idk if I should make an account on Bluesky to post it there...
Ok so, do you remember the small pole I did some days ago about starting having bookmarks in case someone ask me to rec them some fics? Well... It turned out like this
But now I have a problem with organizing them, mostly 2 problems, one with thags and one with collections.
I can't figure out how to put personalized tags that don't appear in the list of alredy existing tags, and I can't figure out how to put those that aren't on the list
My other problem it's that I can't understand how collections works, I tried making a private one to organize bookmarks but I can't add those bookmarks
So... I need help to figure them out
I need some batman fic rec about a kind of general propt:
Batman isn't in the justice league, and they want to invite him in it, that's it, I found like only one fic about it, but batman and the birds were like unded... I was searching for one with like a normal batman, but that didn't join the justice league and I couldn't find any, so I'm asking you people
And the funniest thing is that they're actually married, or at least privatly, Dick knows it, just find it funnier that the whole world now ships SuperBat like he did once when he was a kid
One day, while Hal films one of their bickering they start kissing, and for the shock Hal post it, for error, like litteraly, it's not a post but a stories so it dosen't remain on the account but it immediately gets viral and starts getting reposted around by other accounts both from the superbat fandom and not
Later on Bruce banish both Hal and Wally from posting on the official JL account for 5 months until they get "training" on how to not invade people privacy
Just imagine the Justice League opening an official Instagram channel (Batman had only wanted a Twitter account, but then Wally made sad puppy eyes), where they post mostly about official press releases and news. But...but they also post other stuff.
Diana beating the shit out of every JL member under the guise of sparring and making self-defense videos for girls and little story time videos on ancient Greek and Roman mythology. Jo'nn makes art. His videos mostly consist of oil painting scenes from his home world. Hal and Wally make joint videos and have the most number of likes and comments cause they are hilarious. Wally started the series 'The World's Finest married couple' and shoots specific content of Superman and Batman bickering like an old married couple (which finally starts the influx of superbat shippers and Dick is thrilled), and it makes their follower count blow out of proportion.
You kknow those fics where spiderman ends up in Gotham, or the ones where the JL (Justice League) finds that Batman is a dad and ends up meeting the batfam?
Well, what about a fic where the JL meets Spiderman, but not in the way where he ends up in the DC universe (in one way or the other) in the middle of a JL meeting or the Watchtower, but like as a batkid
Let me explain, Gotham is still Bat territory, the JL dosen't really know what happens there if Bruce dosen't tell them; so they don't know about Peter arrival in Gotham and the fact he became a vigilante there, and they don't know that Bruce adopted him (or Dick or Jason did) and that he became part of the batfam.
So when they meet him is like at random, for example the JL needs help in some chemical thing or something and Batman propose to ask help to one of his kids, and the JL is like: "Tim? Wasn't he good with tech and logistic stuff like Victor? (Cyborg for those who don't know)"
And Batman confused: Not Tim, Peter
JL: Jason?! Wasn't he more interested in literature (because for those who don't know, Jason full name is "Jason Peter Todd")
And Batman is just confused, for then to realize that the JL never met his new son Peter Parker, aka Spiderman who comes from who knows where and that is a genius in chemestry, biology and engineering. So he calls him and the zeta-tube activates saying Spiderman code and from them comes out this chill guy (in spiderman suit because he just finished patrolling with Duke) with a smootie and greets them like is the most normal thing and the JL is just shocked because Bruce adopted another meta
Ok, so you know how Jason looks like he's around 19-20 when he returns, but was dead for like a year before beign resurrected by the pit?
The pit, tecnically talking, makes you younger (apart from stronger and has a healing and reviving factor), Ra's Al Ghul usually uses it for this, to be younger and stronger and to heal injuries,.
So, what if, other than reviving and healing, Jason became younger than when he died when being revived by the pit? It would make his young appearance have more sense
Even more because Dick and Jason have like a 4-5 year old age difference, and when jason return Dick is like in his late 20s (25-30) so Jason should look like he's more than 20years old, but his looks his way younger, so maybe when he was revived the pit made him younger.
Ok, so you know my Batman in omegaverse post (I'll link it just in case you wanna read it), where I talked about how Batman is an Alpha and Bruce Wayne is an omega, and then I reposted it with a continuation of my omegaverse headcanons of some of the batfam. Well I've been thinking for a while (especially because I've been reading a lot of omega!Bruce SuperBat fics), and I realized something, or well, I already knew but still... O/B/A thing is a species thing, so technically it should be a human thing, not a universe thing, differently from soulmates au (maybe I'll do a post about it one day) and in a lot of fics some of the aliens that live on Earth have a secondary gender of the omegaverse, but they technically talking they shouldn't so, here's my theory/headcanon.
Let's start with the character that started all of this
Clark Kent aka Superman, and just Kryptonians in general: Kryptonians seems to be the most human like between all the other aliens in DC, or at least this outside of the Yellow sun that basically gives them more power by some kind of photosyntesis, but outside of this they are basically the same as a human apparently, so they maybe developed a similiar A/B/O thing, but if we not consider this then they shouldn't have a secondary gender, super senses yes, like (under the yellow sun) they can smell the pheromones maybe distinguish them but probably don't really get affected by them, this depends then on how the pheromones works in the omegaverse au If we consider the first case in MY OPINION (so my headcanon) is that Superman is an alpha, a powerful alpha, but Clark Kent, is still an alpha, but more like a "weak alpha" in the sense that he tends to be more a beta than an alpha diffently from Superman.
Now to the martians: THEY DON'T HAVE A SECONDARY GENDER, that's it, they change shapes, they can mutate their forms, imitate other beings. I'm not even use they actually have a proper sex and/or gender, but to my knowlege they have, anyway if we consider the martians on Earth, when they are in their secret ID they imitate betas, this is the thing that would make more sense.
Now Koriand'r and Tamarian in general: they probably don't have secondary genders, to my understandings they are basically warriors so compared to humans A/B/O they are the most similiar to alphas but without the biology of one, so the ones on Earth, so Koriand'r, in their secret ID they pretend to be alphas.
That's it, if you want me to do an analysis on Amazons and Atlanteas, because technically talking they aren't exactly humans... just tell me and I will.
I just realized something, I may have a problem on how I start posts, like
so you know that- yep, that's the problem that's how a lot of my post starts, yep and I'm writing this like this is a conversation, I need a better way to start post other than "ok, so you know..."
At a certain point SuperBrentMan where Bruce is Superman and Clark is Batman starts to become more common, and more accurate...
Bruce starts to noticing it, and with some investigation finds that is usually the same 3-4 accounts that make the more accurate, on a personal level, fics
In the mean time that bruce starts to go crazy because he can't find the identity behind those account: Lois, Jason, Barbara and sometime Tim with Kon formed a "SuperBrentMan fic club" and they are the ones behind those 4 accounts that make the accurate fics, and they love it
At some point Clark finds the fic Lois was working on because she forgot to close the file when she asked Clark to proofread an article she was working on, and luckly for Bruce, Clark made them reveal the truth and that their secret identity was safe
It is widely known in fandom spaces that Gotham is heavily split between the SuperBat shippers and the BruceMan shipper
It's an all out ship-war, the two sides vehemently hate and bash each other online
One day someone proposes the obvious: a poly ship
SuperBruceMan becomes one of the biggest ships in the Gotham real-people shipping community
And then Bruce Wayne ruins everything, by publicly dating nobody-reporter Clark Kent
This spawns a third faction (the Brent shippers), and the magic of poly ships are forgotten
Until someone (yet again) proposes polyamory, and SuperBrentMan is born
Identity shenanigans quickly becomes a SuperBrentMan staple, as the ship is made up of two civilians and two unknown vigilantes/superheroes
And thus, the first SuperBrentMan miraculous square fic is born
The utterly charming but ditzy Bruce Wayne must find a way to tell the life of his life, Clark Kent, of his secret identity as an alien superhero, while Clark Kent tries to come clean about being Gotham's dark knight
The real Clark and Bruce are just thankful that the shippers got the identities switched
I'm italian, but as you can see I can speak english, so I will post in 2 languages
