Experience Tumblr like never before
Just finish watching Justice League War, and I have some thoughts:
On one hand, HOLY BATLANTERN... I GET IT NOW WHY THIS IS Y'ALL HOLY GRAIL... I UNDERSTAND NOW MY BRAIN EXPANDING. I'm very giddy with all of their banters like osbkebdkd?? So cute đ, the way Hal being the first one Bruce ever took his cowl off for to share why he's helping people is so??!??!?? Amazing, absolute cinema
On another hand, I lowkey wanna kill myself with whatever they try to do with WW and superman. Like the "sexual tension" is not. Is not it. Batlantern that wasn't even the primary ship or relationship even had more sexual tension than them. I need DC TO STOP... STOP IT.
My main reason high key is how they portray Clark, like when he first meet Hal and Bruce I was kinda giggling and kicking my feet that he's acting a bit cocky, but thats the only part I like about it, the rest?? WHO IS THIS AND WHAT THEY DO TO MY SUPERMAN?????? #notmysupes
I kinda like the way they portray Diana tho, she's great in that film, my top three, I just don't like whatever the hell they trying to do to with WW and Superman, I don't like they try to push her to man gaze in general anyway like let the gurl slay and stab people COME ON
Barry, Vick and Billy is solid, I don't have much to complain about them tbh, I just have more beef with the Superman x WW they trying to do like ON GOD. Luckily Batlantern was so strong I feel less mad lmao, they so sksbdkbdkd Bruce immediately understand and get to connect with Hal?? And the part Hal put Bat in the box to protect him while he try to fight superman is HILARIOUS. I LOVE IT SO MUCH. I love them, 8/10 (it's minus 2 cuz I really don't like Clark in this and WW x Supes ship, I'm sorry fellas)

hal jordan x battinson | sfw
Cw! Older Hal, Younger Bruce Wayne, romantic leaning, DC Justice League War references, slight spoilers to The Batman (2022), headcannons, suggestive content
thank you to the person who requested this. the request got lost in the cosmos :( these two are hilarious to me (especially if it's battinson in particular)
It was simple. Catch the alien that was terrorizing Gotham. Capture him and things would be fine.
Of course things could never be simple for Hal Jordan, the Green Lantern.
He meets face-to-face with Batman. He expected some older man who was all dark and brooding, which he was, but this Batman was young.
He was anxious and honestly very emo.
The younger man was irritating and always telling Hal to get out of his city. Hal was appalled because how dare he.
Batman was inexperienced.
But this was the same Batman that restored faith in Hal's self. He and Batman, or rather Bruce Wayne said they were the most normal on this team of other gods.
Hal admired the young man's stance. Despite all his broody emo behavior the bat proved to be a symbol of hope and justice.
Hal continued his teasing and the name Spooky rang heavy on his tongue, and soon it felt much more adoring than demeaning. The Batman; Bruce Wayne was a shy man who kept to himself and was learning to accommodate Hal's eccentricity.
They didn't know when it happened.
Hal found himself enamored with the younger man who was a wet kitten. His hands were suddenly tracing every mortal scar on the young man's skin.
Batman suddenly felt a surge of love he never felt before. All there was was Alfred after the death of his parents, and that pain and need for vengeance.
Then the Riddler, and now this.
Opened to the city and hope, and now this man; Green Lantern, Hal Jordan proved to be someone who wanted him the most annoying person on earth. But even so, Bruce couldn't deny this feeling for the other.
The solemn darkness of Gotham haunted Bruce like a ghost. He was the darkness, for he was vengeance and Green Lantern was the light. He was the green light across the ocean and shined brightly for Bruce to see.
Rocky. It was was. Bruce and Hal proved to be people most unlikely to become an item and they argued. Silence from the bat and irritation on the guardian's end.
Still, they ended up in the bedroom where every scar was counted and every scar was kissed with such care and gentleness. After years of being touch-starved and used to the pain Bruce cried. The last night he did it was alone after Alfred got hurt due to his actions.
Every good thing wasn't desevering of him. He wasn't deserving of it.
The Green Lantern's guilt was astronomical. For he was chosen and that belief wavered. Did he even know what he was doing? Then Hal found himself being approached with comforting words. Hesitant kisses. A pale body of scars and fear against his.
Never again would neither of them feel inferior. They were normal in the most human way.
The Batman was costume, even if Brucie was mask just as Bruce Wayne was too.
Green Lantern was the ring. Without it; Hal Jordan was all that was left.
Darkness and light together. Warping beautifully the two joined in bed. Tanned body above another with the most humorous and comforting words ever. The caressing of skin and those damn butterfly kisses.
So sweet and intoxicatingly addictive. Bruce wouldn't stand it, and he let it happen. Hal wouldn't leave him alone, ever again.
Know what? Iâm about to say it.
FUCK JUSTICE LEAGUE AND HAL JORDAN SUPREMACY. I SAID IT. SUE ME.
THEYRE ALL HORRIBLE. OK- ARTHUR IS KINDA OK AND BARRY IS ON THE FLY A LIL AND OLLIE IS ALSO KINDA OKAY, BUT HAL IS BEST. I HAVE MANY REASONS FOR THIS. AND IF ANYONE FIGHTS ME ON THIS THEN DO IT, ILL THROW HANDS.
#Bruce meets his match
Bruce: *staring at Bart from across the interrogation table*
Bart: *Kicking his legs and staring back*
Bruce: So, Impulse-
Bart: No.
Bruce: No?
Bart: You were gonna question me. I say no.
Bruce: You didn't hear the question.
Bart: Okay, go ahead.
Bruce: So-
Bart: No.
Bruce: *disgruntled bat noises*
Bart: *staring with a blank expression*
~ two hours later ~
Bruce: *dangling Bart upside down from the ceiling*
Bart: And then I was all like, "No way, you can't do that. That's a no-no, even in my book", and then Tim was like "I-"
Bruce: Enough, please stop. Stop talking. Leave. I'm done.
Bart: *phases out of the ties* thanks. *walks out*
Diana, on the other side of the one sided glass: I've never seen him give up so quickly.
Hal: Kids' got spunk.
Clark: We should go before Bruce tries to vent on one of us.
Bart: Barry, I like boys. And I'm in love with Ed!
Barry: *confused about confrontation* Okay, I'm glad you told me, Bart.
Wally: ooo, about that...
Barry: wait- what?
Wally: There's a reason I've been hanging out with Dick more often.
Barry: ...
Barry: Do any of you kids like girls?
Jenni: I do.
Barry: *tired sigh*
Hal "glowstick" Jordan: Is this a good time to tell the kids?
Hal: Barry, we need to have a talk.
Barry: What about?
Hal: It's about the blankets.
Barry: The... blankets?
Hal: Every time you come over for a movie night and use one of my blankets, they always disapear.
Barry: ...
Hal: ...?
Barry: sniffs they're just so comfy...
...
Dick: knocks on Wally's door excessivly
Wally: opens it Hey Dickie. What's up?
Dick: Where are they?
Wally: I'm not kidding this time when I say I have no idea what you're talking about.
Dick: The hats, Wally. My hats. Where are they?
Wally: ... sighs and points to a drawr
...
Tim: ...
Bart: ...
Tim, staring at his sweatshirt: Bart-
Bart: OwO??
Tim: literally cannot say no ... You know what? Keep it.
Listen, if I had the time I would just make Justice Leauge the mockumentary, lol.
Outting myself as a nerd real quickđââď¸(as if it wasnât obvious by just looking at my page)
These were more studies on the characters than anything so I guess they turned out okay đ also I know I messed up the coloring on Halâs arms plz ignore them
Batman is how you get the views right?/jk
Honestly Batmanâs sketches were my least favorite but I still love my edgy SadMan
Even though Hal Jordan likely calls Batman âspookyâ because he hangs out in the shadows dressed as a bat, I like to think heâs actually leaning more into the mainstream military slang for âspookâ which Bruce also very much qualifies for (works in the shadows, runs intelligence and/or shadow ops, doesnât get along with âenlistedâ) and which Hal Jordan as a Captain and fighter pilot in the US Air Force would have had formative encounters with, in this essay I will â
I know itâs not hard to point out reactionaries hypocrisy when it comes to like safe spaces or hug boxes or whatever but genuinely how much of an echo chamber do you have to exist in for you to think this is a reasonable thing to say
Okay but some in the JL has definitely gone through the Watchtower security cam footage and made a compilation video of Captain Marvel banging his head on the top of a doorway.
And Iâm pretty sure we all know that he must do that a lot.
There's a glowing humanoid adolescent looking being covered in a violently green glowing blood(?) covering them. They look at Hal, and the look so, so scared.
"Hey, I'm here to help," Hal says, as softly as he can. Universal translation of the ring don't fail him now.
The kid opens their mouth but nothing comes out. Their gloved(?) hands reach up to clutch at their throat, showing off the strange, sharp handcuffs on their wrists. The kid looks up at him, eyes wide and beseeching.
"I'm going to come closer, okay? I'll get those off you, and get you somewhere safe, okay?"
'Promise?' The kid mouths, overexagerated. (Is this what Batman feels before he gets another for his brood? Hal has to say he now regretfully understands where Bats is coming from.)
"Yeah kid," Hal replies as he slowly hovers closer, "I promise,"
After escaping the GIW by flying into the GIWâs own portal Danny flies aimlessly in search of the far frozen to heal and rest. With a fresh wound on his throat and  wearing the GIWâs patented power suppression cuffs, Danny canât even speak let alone use most of his powers.
He canât even dodge as a natural portal opens right on top of him spitting him out in the void of space!
Shocked and stunned he can barely react when a man in a green suit flies up to meet him asking him if he needs help.
There is too pure for this world Marvel iterations, and then there's slightly unhinged Marvel iterations.
"I can't drive, but I can hotwire it for you,"
"Cap, why do you know how to hotwire a car? Cap? Marvel!?"
Green Lantern: We need someone to drive the car. Cap, why donât you get behind the wheel?
Captain Marvel: Nope, canât do that.
GL: What? Why?
Cap, secretly 12yo: IâŚdonât have a license. Itâs irresponsible.
GL: You donât ha- This a covert mission! Just drive.
Cap, never even played Mario Kart before: It is my moral obligation to obey all traffic laws.
GL: Just drive the car!
Cap: YOU CANâT MAKE ME
Do you think Superman sometimes eats stuff he shouldn't to freak people out
Like, he'll be in a Justice League meeting, and he'll just start casually eating a chair
On a stakeout one summer night, the Justice League gets caught up in the middle of a swarm of super powered mosquitoes. Chewed up, they go back to the Watchtower to regroup.
Hal: Fuck. Who has the calamine lotion?
Diana, flustered: What were those?
Clark, never having experienced a mosquito bite before, on the verge of tears: :(
Bruce:
Hal: Hey Spooky, how come youâre not itching like the rest of us? They even managed to break through Clarkâs skin.
Bruce: Bats can eat up to 1,200 mosquitoes in an hour.
Everyone: ????
Bruce: *swoops out the door*
â
Dick: Hey Dad how was the League mission??
Bruce: Better than expected.
Tim: Any idea why Green Lantern has left fifteen hysterical voicemails asking if youâre actually a bat cryptid?
Bruce: No idea whatsoever. Would you please refill my Bat Mosquito Repellant?
Somebody just made me realise Green Lantern is literally a magical girl.
First his power comes from a ring, a classic magical girl thing to have an accessory that transforms you.
He has a main colour theme as any other magical girl has.
He has a costume that subtly GLOWS
AND HE HAS AN OATH!!! Whatâs more magical girl than an oath/catchphrase!?
Captain Marvel in the Watchtower rec room.
Green Lantern (Hal) & Flash: *giggling at something on GLâs phone*
Audio coming from the phone: *bang*âOw!ââ*clang* âOuch!ââ*thump* âack!ââ*thud*âOw âŚI think that left a dentâŚâ
Captain Marvel, clearly annoyed: âyouâre really watching that again?â
Green Lantern: âsorry dude! Itâs just so funny!â
Captain Marvel: *turns around to walk out the room but bangs his head on the top of the door frame*
Flash: *falls out of his chair laughing*
Okay but some in the JL has definitely gone through the Watchtower security cam footage and made a compilation video of Captain Marvel banging his head on the top of a doorway.
And Iâm pretty sure we all know that he must do that a lot.
Love fics where Batmanâs identity is revealed as Bruce Wayne and the JL is just not connecting the dots.
But I need a fic specifically where the JL is in a situation where they have to lay low in a safe house or whatever for a few days while they figure out their next move and Bruce just takes off his cowl without explanation and somebody looks up to see BRUCE WAYNE in their secret hideout.
The entire JL: *tired from fighting and crashing in the nearest safe house to hide out in for the next few days while they figure out their next move*
Batman, putting a lot of thought into it: âwell I donât want to have to wear all my body armour and my cowl for the next few days, and I trust these people with my life, so I think I can safely take my mask off and reveal my identityâ
Batman, without a word even though he should probably say a whole speech and explain why: *takes his cowl off and silently continues with his work in the corner of the room*
The ENTIRE JL: *doesnât notice*
Someone, probably Hal Jordan: *looks up to see BRUCIE fucking WAYNE sitting in the shadows of their top secret hideout*
Hal:
Hal: WHAT THE FUCK
The JL: *freaking out because why is a civilian billionaire in the secret safe house and how did he get in without the worlds strongest and smartest heroes knowing?*
Also the JL: WHERE THE HELL IS BATMAN????
Bruce: *politely sitting in the corner, still working while he waits for someone to ask him a question instead of incoherently screaming at each other about him*
Pairing: Bruce Wayne x Hal Jordan (Batlantern) Setting: Cozy cafĂŠ, followed by a walk in the park Tone: Soft Fluff
The cafĂŠ was small and cozy, tucked away on a quiet street in Gotham. The air smelled like freshly ground coffee and something faintly sweet, like cinnamon. A soft jazz tune played in the background, mixing with the chatter of the few patrons.
Bruce sat at a corner table, his usual sharpness dulled by the warm lighting and comforting atmosphere. His coffee sat in front of him, but he wasnât drinking it. Instead, he was watching Hal, who seemed entirely too excited for a simple trip to a cafĂŠ.
âThis place smells like... joy,â Hal said, eyes wide as he looked around. âIâm convinced coffee beans are secretly happiness in disguise.â
Bruce didnât smile, but there was the tiniest flicker of amusement in his eyes. âYou sure itâs not the sugar?â
Hal leaned forward with a smirk. âMaybe a little bit of both.â
Bruce reached for his cup, taking a sip, and Hal watched him, eyes narrowing playfully. âYouâre really quiet today.â
Bruce sighed. âIâm not quiet. Iâm... contemplative.â
Hal snorted, causing Bruce to give him an unamused look. âIâll take that as âyes, youâre quiet.ââ
âWell,â Bruce said, glancing out the window at the soft drizzle of rain that had started outside, âI didnât think youâd be so... enthusiastic about coffee. Youâre usually more into explosions and flashy things.â
âCoffeeâs a simple pleasure,â Hal replied, leaning back in his chair. âBesides, itâs a good break from all the chaos. I donât need fireworks to enjoy something.â
Bruceâs gaze softened slightly. He hadnât expected Hal to be so... well, normal. In the middle of Gotham, in a cafĂŠ with soft lighting and jazz, Bruce felt a kind of peace that didnât come often.
After a few moments, Hal was up and pulling his jacket on. âSo, I know youâre Mr. Nighttimeââ
âDonât.â
ââBut how about we take a walk through the park?â Hal finished, ignoring the glare. âThereâs a park not far from here. I promise, no giant green robots or alien invasions.â
Bruce gave him a flat look. âYou really think thatâs going to convince me?â
Hal just smiled, mischief twinkling in his eyes. âIâm betting on the fact that youâre curious enough to see what a normal date looks like.â
Bruce raised an eyebrow, his lips twitching toward a smirk. âAlright. Lead the way.â
The park was quiet, the path lit by soft streetlamps that shimmered in the rain. They walked side by side, the occasional raindrop catching in the dark strands of Halâs hair. There was a certain ease in the air, despite the worldâs usual chaos swirling around them.
Hal kicked a few leaves up, glancing at Bruce. âYou know, Iâve always imagined Gotham as... darker. More gloomy. But this place... itâs peaceful.â
Bruce nodded, his gaze on the path ahead. âSometimes you need a reminder that thereâs more to a city than crime.â
Hal glanced at him, and for the first time in what felt like ages, Bruce let his guard slip just a little. He didnât have to be Batman right now. He could just be... Bruce.
âYou know,â Hal began, looking up at the rain-soaked trees, âthis is nice. Just... us. No Green Lanterns or Bat-families. No big city problems.â
Bruce turned his head, watching Hal with a rare, genuine smile that seemed to soften the edges of his face.
âIâm glad you think so,â Bruce said quietly. âItâs been a while since Iâve just... walked.â
They continued on in silence for a while, the sound of footsteps mixing with the gentle rustle of leaves in the rain. When they reached a bench near the center of the park, Hal gestured for Bruce to sit.
âI wasnât expecting you to be so...â Hal trailed off, unsure how to finish his sentence.
âNormal?â Bruce suggested, taking a seat. âYeah. Iâm good at hiding it.â
âSometimes itâs hard to see past the cape and cowl,â Hal said softly. âBut I think I like this version of you.â
Bruce met his gaze, his voice a little quieter than usual. âI think I do too.â
Halâs hand rested on the bench beside Bruceâs, fingers almost brushing. Bruce looked down for a moment, then subtly shifted his hand so it was resting just an inch from Halâs.
âI guess weâre both full of surprises,â Bruce said, his lips quirking in the slightest smile.
Hal chuckled, looking down at their hands. âYou have no idea.â
The rain fell a little harder now, but neither of them moved to leave. Instead, they sat there, quietly sharing a moment that was simple â but in its own way, exactly what they needed.

This is for @witherby I'M RATTING YOU OUT. You guys should definitely check out their writing, it's awesome!!
Their relationship is a mix of grumpy x sunshine energy. Hal loves teasing Bruce, while Bruce pretends to be annoyed (but secretly enjoys it).
Hal constantly pushes Bruce out of his comfort zone, dragging him to spontaneous trips and adventures. Bruce acts reluctant but usually ends up having a good time.
Bruce shows his love through actionsâpatching up Hal after fights, upgrading his flight suit, or silently standing by his side after tough missions.
Hal flirts with Bruce constantly, even in front of the Justice League, just to see him roll his eyes.
When they argue, it's usually over risk-takingâBruce thinks Hal is reckless, and Hal thinks Bruce is too cautious. But they always find a middle ground.
Hal likes sneaking little green light constructsâlike hearts or winking facesâinto Bruceâs peripheral vision during League meetings, trying to break his serious facade.
Despite his stoic nature, Bruce trusts Hal with parts of himself he doesn't share with anyone else. Hal, in turn, feels grounded by Bruceâs steady presence.
They have an unspoken âno giftsâ rule for holidays, but Hal breaks it every time with something ridiculousâlike a bat-themed flight jacket or green-lantern-colored cufflinks.
Bruce pretends to hate PDA, but if someone looks at Hal the wrong way, heâll subtly pull him closer.
Late at night, after long missions, they sit on the Watchtower, looking at Earth through the observation windowsâno words needed, just quiet companionship.
lovers rock
So I noticed things :
can we just appreciate how Bruce used Damian tt ???? Please ???? I didn't see it the first time (too focused on the story, now I went for details), and yeaaaah, i love it.
the frienship between Hal and Barry... god I love them (yeah, my favorites heroes are the original Flash and Green Lantern, could you tell ?? (Sorry for one of my friend, Nightwing is way further away :) )) And obviously : GL and the Flashes. I love them all (yeah, I love mostly Hal, Barry and Wally, but all of them T-T)
And this made me laugh, and my friend -who was beside me when I read that chapter-.
