There are sooo many characters I could use but imma try to keep this list short
"It's not about the CANONICAL chemistry. Canon can go fuck itself. It's about the POTENTIAL for chemistry. It's about the fact that, had things gone just a little differently, had they gotten just a little more screentime together, they would be in a serious relationship."

If y'all ever see me drawing random characters speaking Spanish mind your business
Saw this tweet foever ago n now i keep thinkin bout how making any character ever Canadian is funny as fuck. Theyre all canadian now
Headcanon that bludhaven hates heroes with a flaming passion bc theyre just cops in tights but love Nightwing and therefore vehemently deny his hero status to anyone and everyone.
Like there is no official Nightwing merch bc he’s a criminal he’s committing a crime okay vigilante justice is in fact not legal and he’s not TECHNICALLY on the justice league and he’s NOT TECHNICALLY the leader of the titans anymore. But there are about 400 different Etsy stores that make hoodies, crop tops, joggers, sweats, sunglasses, bracelets, t shirts with nightwings logo or some art of him on them.
Like they love this guy and will get into beef with any Gotham national who tries to claim Nightwing is THEIR hero.
1) hes not a hero he’s a criminal fuck you
2) you have a hero and just bc he’s shit at his job and needs our guy (who is NOT a hero) to help him sometimes doesn’t MEAN SHIT
people are walking around with tiny v shaped blue tattoos or embroidered on clothing but again NOT A HERO BLUDHAVEN DOESNT DO HEROS
There are coffee shops with bad nightwing pun names nightbird, beanwing, nightwinging it and so on
Every third piece of graffiti is this man’s logo
Every sandwich place or fast food chain has a ‘secret menu item’ that’s not actually secret bc everyone orders it and it’s just one of their normal items dyed blue (sodas, desserts, burger buns, condiments so on) some places will sell wings fried in blue panko bread crumbs and call them them ‘nightwings’ ofc these are ALL off the menu you can’t see these items and if you try to order them out of the city you get weird looks.
Superman goes on tv and says Nightwing is one of his favorite hero’s and bludhaven riots. wtf nightwing is your favorite hero you fuckin poser
1) nightwing isn’t a hero he’s a criminal so back off
2) he’s ours you and your frou frou fancy city that hasn’t been nuked by a sentient pile of radiation can fuck RIGHT off
Naturally the only person in bludhaven who is unaware of this is Dick Grayson bc tbh this man is too busy to give a fuck about what his city thinks of him. They trust him to get shit done. Good that’s all he needs okay he has 22 reports he needs to log he’s busy.
Tim Drake professional nightwing fanboy however is fucking furious about this because.
A) dick was a GOTHAM hero FIRST and bludhaven can suck it
B) fuck you nightwing isn’t just a a hero he’s THE HERO and the BEST hero and don’t be rude bc you have a complex
C) all of the cool nightwing merch only ships around bludhaven so has to get it ordered there and it’s just a hassle and he’d pay double he swears just let him get it delivered to where he is please Everytime he stops by bludhaven he leaves with 10 new pieces of nightwing merch and bc he has so much. Damian doesn’t think he notices when some of his doubles mysteriously go missing. He does.
D) since they are anti hero they are firmly unhelpful whenever he or Steph show up bc a case has lead them to the city
The one plus side was watching Jason Todd having a mental breakdown bc apparently in bludhaven redhood counts as a hero and is therefore hated.
“Yous worked with the bat yous a hero thems the rules”
“I KILL PEOPLE”
“Yeah so do cops and people always call them heroes”
“Okay but I kill people to protect the general public I put down scum”
“Cops say they do that too”
“I- okay you know what I’m a hero fine okay. Why isn’t nightwing a hero”
“Vigilante justice is a crime”
“I’m documentably worse than a vigilante”
“But you have worked with the bat”
“For money yeah”
“See you even get paid, face it you’re a hero which means you suck”
“You realize Nightwing has worked with the bat right like way more than I have”
“Listen that ain’t his fault okay, the bats incompetent and so are the rest to you idiots. He’s a nice guy and a good neighbor don’t mean he’s a hero”
“I- what the fuck is in this cities water”
“I don’t fuckin know but it’s prolly better than whatever gothams got in its harbor”
“I- yeah you’re probably right”
Listen it came to me in a dream don’t yell at me
New years approx 2 hours after midnight
The titans are at Donna’s apartment and all offensively drunk
Dick (most sober) : I’m not doing it
Roy (most drunk): DONT be a coward Grayson
Donna (2nd most drunk): YEAH put on the maid dress Grayson
Dick: THE MAID DRESS ISNT the problem its the fucking thong that goes with it
Wally(speedster metabolism is no match for Dick Grayson and high tech lab equipment more drunk than he’s ever been): oh come on didn’t you give me shit when we were teens for not being “open minded” I didn’t sit through a 5 hour HR presentation on toxic masculinity at 15 for you to back out now
Garth (got high instead, currently flying higher than the moon, out of earths orbit with about 4 pounds of food INFRONT of him): do it do it do it do it
Dick: 1) you know I have no shame around any of you, that is not the issue. I am telling you I. Will. Not. Fit
Donna: damn tbh I thought they put all the dick in your name
Donna: or your personality
Wally: *wheezing*
Dick: listen i will wear the maid dress im not a pussy, I’ll never back out of a dare. IF you let me wear my regular underwear
Roy: deal
Dick goes to Donna’s room to change
Donna: I could’ve sworn I bought the men’s one
Roy: you probably did
Donna: so was he being at bitch cuz if so he has to do the forfeit
Wally: we once dared dick to call slade Wilson daddy in front of Bruce and he did it the next day, you think that THIS is where he draws the line
Garth (has reached zen no thoughts head empty): might still be 2 small, both things can be true *holding index finger up on each and and joining them together in front of his face why crossing his eyes*
Donna in a whisper: is he really that big?
Roy immediately: yes
Donna: you answered that way too quickly
Wally: well we did share a locker room for like 2 decades
Donna: I’m sorry? Did you like compare?? Or something
Garth: noooooooo (honest)
Wally: …occasionally
Roy: idk what yall are on about I just fucked the guy
Donna: YOU DID WHAT???
Garth: ????????????????
Wally: HUH? WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN????
Roy realizing this was when they were on the outsiders,very toxic with one another and on opposite paths of self destruction: Okay listen it was a weird time for us, Donna was dead and-
Donna: SO YOU FUCKED THE NEXT BLACK HAIRED BLUE EYED PERSON ON THE TEAM
Garth (still high): wait I was on that team? Why didn’t you fuck me? I have black hair and blue eyes
Wally patting his shoulder in a supportive manner: not enough daddy issues.
Garth: *nods understandingly* ahhhhh
Roy: AS I was saying, it was a weird time I had my whole thing with Cheshire, you were dead which means dick wanted to die more than usual. Anyway it happened I love him but let’s not do that again
Garth: but would you? Like without the toxic would you
Roy: Raw. Next question
Donna *did not need to know this about dick but also mildly impressed* curiosity is man’s greatest sin and as a feminist it’s her job to even that playing field even if it’s cursed knowledge:… so how big is he…
Roy doing the hand size thing you know the one: big
Donna: damnnnn
Garth (still very high has ascended to a 5th dimension can smell colors): the real reason oracle is in a wheelchair
Wally: *falls out of his chair*
Donna: GARTH
Roy: *burst out laughing*
Me: I really like dc canon and frankly I think that fanon flanderizes the characters to the point where they are unrecognizable
Also me: Dick and Jason are drinking buddies,
Tim has put kon, Bernard and Steph in a gc called “the roster” and dipped.
Dick is not allowed to meet Barbara’s friends bc they all like him too much and then it’s rlly hard to bitch about him. (This is actually kinda canon thank u Dinah lance in birds of pray lmao)
The reverse of this is also true but for Dicks exes and Barbara like they get along TOO well.
Babs and Kori are friends.
Babs and Donna are sworn enemies. (Mutual)
Dick gets a different signature food with each of his siblings except Steph cuz they get smoothies. 
Dick keeps trying to get Steph and Donna to meet up but Everytime he tries Gotham gets blown up
Damian refuses to sneak pets in a trench coat bc it’s bad for them to be squished.
Duke is the only bat who knows about the mpreg joker story
Tim and Jason’s only texts to each other are “help” or “you lil shit what did you do!!?!”
Tim, Jason, Cass and Duke all like the discowing suit
Steph and Damian hate it
Damian says he’s spending the weekend not with his dad and everyone assumes Bruce and talia are trying split custody but he needs to bitch about Bruce so he goes to bludhaven
Donna and Dick get drunk together and get progressively more and more sappy about how they should move in together and how much they love each other, you’re amazing no you’re amazing.
Roy and Dick are besties who text like a divorced couple trying to coparent
Dicks exes are in a discord server called “raw. next question” and they have channels called “red heads only” “also dated his brother” “tried to kill him” etc
The redheads don’t have names in this discord “redhead 1” “red head 2” “redhead 3” and so on
They also don’t discuss dick in this server at all
Bruce calls dick for ideas about the Brucie Wayne persona and also when he just doesn’t get why people are mad at him.
Dick calls wally for help with menial tasks
Tim is a big big big fan of THC (same)
Dick goes to raves
Jason is actually the DARE Robin
An image of Dick at a rave went viral on Twitter and Bruce had a mental breakdown so did Jason
Stephanie will never ask Bruce for anything but she buys a 10$ coffee every morning on his card bc of that video of people saying young people can’t buy houses bc of Starbucks and avocado toast.
Jason has a video of 19 yr old Dick spitting at a police officer and he sent it on the family gc when he found out dick went undercover as a cop. It is one of 5 messages he has sent.
Everyone of the Bats is some shade of bisexual
Dicks house is the defacto Bruce is being a lil bitch for the bats and literally everyone who is affiliated with Bruce as long as you bring liquor you’re welcome
Garth and Dick watch sad movies together
Tim and Bruce watch all the bond films together
Damian and Dick watch bird documentaries together
Jason doesn’t watch tv bc he’s a secret hipster (he doesn’t have a tv they keep blowing up.)
Linda has absolutely asked Dick to swing with her and Wally and Dick told Wally about this and Wally’s only reaction was…”soooo is that a yesss or a no?”
The fab 5 titans all hate each others exes, refuse to acknowledge any guilt their friend had in the matter , and will absolutely pretend none of them have dated (they have all dated)
Bruce is in absolute denial that his children date. Like he knows dick has dated people but he assumes that it is kindergarten dating “ah dick spent the night at Barbara’s they must really like holding hands” “Bernard and Tim are moving so fast I mean I saw one of them kiss the other on the cheek??” Meanwhile he has traumatized all robins to ever Robin bc him and Selina Kyle can’t keep their hands right themselves
Also me: cognitive dissonance thank you for your service
Dick has like 25million ig followers, donna does his photos
Tim has a very popular shitpost account on Twitter from his pre Robin days that has statements like “if i was Batman I would simply barricade Arkham” and “stalking Nightwing rn we are up to 120 flips and 30 quips…. There is no else here”
I feel like there are 10 flavors of shippers in this fandom
- no you can’t ship that ship?? It’s so problematic (there is a 2 year age gap)
- yeah Bruce prolly fucks his kids who also fuck each other
- why are you shipping fanon?? Why does everything have to be gay?? Enough with the gay stuff
- problematic non incest ships (slade Wilson and Dick, Talia and Jason, Tim and Ra’s) I call this one the Freud would sell his soul to interview you tier
- stuck on one ship that hasn’t been canon in years or only happened in a tv show or else world story
- Batkids x miraculous ladybug or Danny phantom
- why love triangle when they can all hold hands (everything is a polycule)
-why love triangle when the women can just date each other and abandon the mediocre man (gayyay subgenre exists where the women leave their boyfriends to date each other and then the boyfriends also date each other)
- quietly ships current canon and lives their lives
-all queer ships, canon! Fanon! Who cares? Two bisexuals of opposite genders is fine but it has to have pizzaz
Tag yourself or add anything that I missed!
the reason I hate the "Tim doesn't trust Dick after Damian/spyral/ric" is because they are besties your honour.
Like there's a post going around that I cannot for the life of me find that says Dick is Tims trusted adult and they are so right fr ong.
Because despite what Fanon believes Dick is a pretty chill guy and people take one look at him and go "let me unload my emotional baggage on you"
There's like a very famous panel (that im too lazy to find or remember the name of the run its in okay don't yell at me) where Tim basically goes "soooo my girlfriends pregnant" and Dick nearly falls off the roof.
Tim is calling Dick for the dumbest shit imaginable to the world ending and so are the rest of the batkids.
so I have taken the Canon that Dick knows if not all but most and generalised it to hell.
-------------------------
Jason has been on a team with like 80% of OG titan members
they're having gossip session
Jason in a war zone dodging bullets with his bat travel mug in his hand: And THEN! Kori and Roy shared this look and you know the look they give you when they're judging you for bat reasons and you're like tell me why you're mad I was raised by a crazy person my normal levels are skewed.
Dick in NYC with a blueberry bagel In one hand, his Turkish coffee in another, just finished meeting up with Donna who gave him THAT exact look: No REALLLLL why are they like that, just tell me which one of the creepy traits I internalised as a child is bothering you.
Jason: omg you get it anyway so I grab the bomb and start playing soccer with it because its round and im bored and starfire takes it away like idk what im doing? bro ive been bombed I know how to work with a bomb..
Dick: hmmm and then what happened
Jason: and then.....
--------------------------
Tim: Dickkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
Dick: yea Tim
Tim: Kon is being a dick
Dick: oh?
Tim: yeah and its really starting to bother me man
Dick who knows Kon is dead and Tim is either hallucinating or drugged to be more susceptible to manipulation and is already on his way: hmm tell me more babybird whys he upsetting my lil brother
Tim about to tell Dick what is a fever dream bc he contracted pneumonia and is loopy off his ass on painkillers:
---------------------------
steph does this more with babs in the hero scene but its just... so easy and totally gets into the habit of it after Dick is her Batman for a bit and now she uses him as her civilian life therapist
Steph on her way back from campus: and then this bitch looks me up and down and pours her coffee cup down my shirt!
Dick on his way back to blud after decking bruce in the face: hold on hold on hold on she did what??
Steph nodding vigorously even though he can't see her: pulls my whole ass sweater away from my body and pours her peats coffee down my goddamn shirt Dick.
Dick: omg she didnt
Steph still nodding: she DID and then I found out from Jonny who found out from Vivian that someone told her I made out with her boyfriend at Leos house party
Dick who has no idea who any of these people are: wait but you were at Leos for like an hour max last week. we has smoothies after.
StepH: exactly so I had proof that I wasn't there and confronted her and went like. I don't want your crusty ass alt white boy whose favourite 'indie' band is the neighbourhood. I dated Tim fucking Drake the OG crusty ass white boy and I don't do repeats
Dick choking on his coffee:
Steph: anyway we are besties now and planning on getting her boyfriend back because apparently he cheated on her with this drop dead gorgeous girl and im high key a lil complimented she thought we were the same person.
Dick who initially called for casework and is actually so happy one of the people he calls siblings is actually like living a life outside of vigilantism: tell me more
Steph: you sound a little teary
dick: don't worry about it
-------------------------
Damian: Richard
Dick: Damian
Damian: so I might be skipping patrol with father
Dick:? what you love patrol??
Damian: and school
Dick: Dames? what's going on:? is everything okay? you can talk to me
Damian: I am volunteering at a hospital
Dick: kid
Damian: Listen before you sAY anything I know what we do is important but I think I can help in another way and -
Dick had brown parents and was training for the olympics at 8, totally knows what its like to have insane expectations and rebel with a day job: kid kid calm down okay? you wanna be a doctor? is that it?
Damian: well? I dont really know but I just? there has to be another way to help people. besides what we do I mean-
Dick: Alfred left me Thomas waynes journals I initially thought they were to bash your fathers head in when he was being stupid but it seems the old man was looking out for us. Wanna take a stab at your other grandpas legacy when you come over next weekend. I'll tell Bruce we patrolled so you get a few more days off.
Damian: you're the best
Anyway I'm bored, so here is how I feel about some popular Dp headcanons
1. Danny Phantom has constellations freckles (bonus if they glow)- I LOVE this headcanon especially if it's space obsession au
2. Danny Phantom has fangs (including his human form)- I don't like it 😞 I feel like it's more of a vampiric trait than a ghostly trait.
Vlad has fangs in his ghost form because he is a vampire wannabe.
3. Danny's eyes glow in the dark- I like it in a crack/fun way but I can't imagine it in serious fics, I can't see it working well or just imagine how it will fit in a story. (But it looks cool in fanart).
4. Danny has high metabolism, basically he needs to eat more than the average person so he could create his own ectoplasm- I like it, it's an okay headcanon.
5. Danny Fenton grows up(his human form) but Phantom doesn't (his ghost half is forever 14)- I love it, it's great for angst and for funny fics but I like more as an au (basically I don't want this to become the default).
6. Danny's heartbeat is slower than a normal person- I love it for angst fics(he can't be an astronaut because of it) and for funny/crack fics but I don't want this to become the default 😭.
7. Phantom can breathe which is something other ghost don't do and it's freaking them out- I don't actually think this one is a popular headcanon but I LOVE this, it's so funny. Like if his ghostly traits leak into his human form then he should show some human traits in ghost form.
8. Wes Weston- YES (technically he exists as a background character but pretty much all of his personality is one big headcanon).
I’m currently suffering hay fever from the seasons (essentially pre-winter to freeze and die winter) and I have a bone to pick with Snufkin because how is he hawling his ass to get to Moominvalley ON THE FIRST DAY OF SPRING. like sweet lord how is he not just a sniffling, red eyed, mopy, teary mess of a man with two tissues shoved up his nose. I’m dying because I dared to wake up and needed to breathe and that man is GOING ON A HIKE. WILLINGLY.
Like shit Moomintroll you got yourself a dedicated mans right there.
Or maybe he does suffer with the sniffles, he just waits till he set up camp and sits down in his tent. then BOOM tears just explode out of his face and the violent sneezing begins and if anyone goes to check on him he’s just like “oh yea I’m wonderful, the first day of spring in Moominvalley always gets me a little teary eyed”
There’s only 2 ways to draw htf characters lol
Just a lanky pair of creepy house kitties, and nothing out of the ordinary I swear! 🤫
Okay so.. head canons! These can be considered a bit AU-ish (I might possibly create a whole au in the future), and there was a ton I wanted to write but a limited amount of canvas space so with that said I am just going to go into detail here.
HeadCanons
Julius & Lune
Was brought to this world through a ritual, and he wants out.. no seriously, this man is done with this plane of existence.
Not considered a living creature. His “organs” are completely useless because he never found out how to properly copy them.
Really sensitive, and can or will cry if you do not laugh at his morbid ass jokes.
Possibly Bipolar?
Aggressive but not irrational, because high energy doesn’t equal stupidity and he is relatively intelligent.
Steers-clear of adults and will abandon his prey if necessary.
Will and has spent a complete hour shit talking a literal six year old. He has no shame I swear.
· · ─────── ·𖥸· ─────── · ·
Does not remember much of their past life and things they do remember tend to be blurry around the edges.
Is a living and breathing being. It can process proteins gained from eating the other subjects but not enough to stay healthy.
Incredibly bad posture due to their constant back pain.
Suffers through hallucinations brought on by exhaustion.
Patient but territorial, and will become aggressive if their territory is tampered with.
Spends most their time at the altar praying and begging to be released.

Btw pretty much all of the studio investigrave characters have a fanon kid that I made
I feel like this is something angel dust would say.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I feel like this is impossible to answer honestly without the entire fandom of whatever show, movie, etc, you mention coming down on you for not supporting the fanon headcanons/ships they obsess over. There's a couple of certain anime fandoms in specific with this trait.
