Of creature of the woods give me your wisdom. I really want to read batman comics but I have no clue where to start it's so overwhelming *dies*

omg hiii <333

super sorry for how late this is, i been busy all day !!!! im beyond honoured you thought of me to come to for Batman recs !! but i MUST give credits to my friend instead because their list is how I got into Batman comics!!

this !! is a great Batman reading list for a general use/reference! i know it can be super intimidating at first but you are SO brave and can do it! I promise it gets easier once you start getting into the swing of things! North did a great job in picking the comic issues/arcs so you can get a variety of stories and i can 1000% vouch for their recs!! (i think my personal favourite is Dark Knight, Dark City fyi!!)

another list from them :)

admittedly, I skip around in comics A LOT and just take a glance at a wiki to make sure im a starting a mini story arc in the right spot/it's just a standalone. but north's lists helped me when I was first getting into comics to make it a little less scary and i still look at it for a general use/remember my favourites! if you're just starting to read Batman comics, i cannot recommend them enough !!! :33

another friend of mine has this rec list too and some great for Batman Black and White recs too:

part 1, part 2, part 3

Matty's are great if you're looking for other adventures/different little stories and examples in how writers use the character! take a peek and see what catches your eye :)

AND a quick reminder (as always) to be mindful consuming any media but especially comics! and especially Batman related ones! Batman is a wonderful character and when written correctly, he is a symbol of unwavering compassion. BUT unfortunately the comic book world is a breeding ground for fascist, racist, and antisemitic storylines. be thoughtful in what you're reading and use your head to recognize signs of when the writer is using comics and these characters to push their disgusting propaganda.

three widely known examples are Grant Morrison, Frank Miller, and The Court of The Owls:

Morrison is one of the most known writers for modern-ish Batman. however they played a large hand in retconning Talia al Ghul's character and being a racist piece of shit so everyday i imagine their head blowing up

Frank Miller who's just a straight up fascist. He's largely praised for The Dark Knight Returns trilogy which can be avoided entirely (and should be, imo). you may have Batman: Year One get recommended which, again, i think is unnecessary (especially for just starting out). but if you're going to read it, be mindful of the writer.

(i'm unsure of how much you do or don't know – but if you want to see a short leadup to Bruce being Batman; I'd recommend The Man Who Falls (which is written by the iconic Dennis O'Neil) instead! Batman's origins has many stories and factors and this combines a lot of them into a nice, tidy story while adding a few other elements i like :))

and Scott Snyder's Court of the Owls entire arc is one of the worse cases i can think of; to where i knew of it before i ever touched a comic. Hallie did a wonderful explanation talking about it here and i recommend everyone to read it. even if you already have, refresh yourself and read it again.

If you're just getting into Batman comics i know that can seem like a lot to take in! But this is just to give a warning and reminder that comics are an artform that can and have been used as a propaganda and political piece. For better (police abolishment, his care and belief all life is precious/deserves to be saved/the belief and hope anyone can change for the better) and for the worse (racism, anti-semitism, police militarization).

I hope my friends lists helped in narrowing down where to start and you fall in love with this character too :) feel free to dm me or ask for my discord if you ever want to talk on them/have any questions!!! <3

#one of these days im going to start a new series where i keep track of what i have and havent read and my general thoughts #because after so many comics they kinda blur together in specific arcs and recommendations/nuances #more for myself to keep track but anon u might just gave me a little personal side project eheeye #i hope my post didn't scare you off/make things more confusing! i promise reading them gets easier after developing the feel for it and #finding your own reading pattern and preferences! rather it be skipping around to bulk reading one writer to get a feel how they #characterize bruce to anything. youre gonna be okay and it isnt that scary after just jumping in!#i am holding ur hand and pulling u into the depths of bat-hell <3 #also big mwah to my mutuals for making the lists. i appreciate u guys for it still (and the ones i didnt link!) for taking me in and being #super supportive and welcoming when i first got into comics 💞💞💞💞#company in the crypt #crypt recs #<- babe wake up new ransom tag !

Ransom takes care of you during a very painful period, which shocks you a lot 🥺

i just got really sad and started crying for no reason lmao so i went on the hunt in my inbox because i knew i had this request somewhere 🥺

pairing: ransom drysdale x reader

warnings: period pains

word count: ~600

——⋅☾ ☽⋅——

No matter how hard you’re trying to be quiet, your tossing and turning eventually wakes him up. His eyes slowly open, and he's able to tell it's early enough that neither of you should be awake by how dark the room still is.

“Stop moving,” he grumbles quietly, burying his face in his pillow.

“Sorry,” you whimper, his slightly irritated tone being enough to set you off in the sensitive state you're in.

Hearing that, he turns to face you again, furrowing his brow at the sight of your teary eyes. “Are you crying?”

“No,” you sniffle, quickly wiping at your eyes.

“What's wrong?”

“I started my period,” you exhale, rubbing your lower back. “My back hurts, and you don't have any pain relievers, and now I woke you up- I didn't mean to.”

“Oh babe- Shit,” he sighs, rolling onto his back and brings his hands up to rub at his eyes before sitting up. “I didn't mean to make you cry. We really don't have painkillers? That was on my list this week, damn it. I’m sorry.”

“It’s okay,” you whisper, knowing your voice will crack again if you talk any louder.

Glancing down at you, he offers a sympathetic look before moving to get out of bed.

“Where are you going?” you ask, watching him pull on a sweater and some pants.

“To get you something to take,” he shrugs, walking to your side of the bed so he can lean down to give you a quick kiss. “But before I do that…” His voice trails off as he leaves the room, and you groan, once again changing your position in attempt to get more comfortable.

When he walks back in the room a minute later, he's carrying two water bottles. “This one’s for you to drink,” he says, placing it on the table next to the bed. “And this one is hot. I figure that might help until I get back.” He hands it to you, and you immediately slip it under your shirt, pressing it against your skin.

He chuckles at the small initial sigh of relief you let out, and leans down one more time to kiss your forehead before leaving.

The hot water bottle only provides a tiny bit of relief for a short amount of time before you're in utter agony again. It feels like he's gone for hours before you finally hear him coming down the hallway toward your room.

“Sorry it took so long,” he’s apologizing as soon as he walks through the door, handing you the bag in his hand. “Punk in front of me at the checkout was buying the whole damn store at 6 in the morning. Asshole wouldn't let me cut in front of him-”

“Ransom,” you laugh, interrupting him before he gets too worked up to go back to sleep. “It’s okay. Thank you.”

You take a few pills as he strips his clothes back off, getting back into bed with you. You found that laying on your side with your knees up to your chest is the least excruciating, so you lay like that facing him. But he puts his hand on your back, gently guiding you to lay on your stomach instead.

“Where does it hurt?” he asks softly, sliding his hand underneath your shirt to rest it on the middle of your back.

“Lower,” you murmur, letting out another sigh of relief as his warm hand moves and applies pressure to your lower back. “Mmm, knew your hands were good for something.”

“They’re good for a lot of things,” he teases, kissing your cheek and the top of your head. “Gotta get you feeling better so I can show you.”

toxic - chapter 13

hello :) how are you? i hope you’re all doing well. this chapter is going to be set up a little differently. we’ve got a time skip going on that moves from where we were (about a week or so after thanksgiving) to about a week before christmas. there’s going to be a lot of explaining in this chapter and some flashback clips in times we didn’t get to read about. i really hope you enjoy this chapter though, i’m about to cram a lot of character development in here but i hope it’s still enjoyable. thank you!🤍

The weeks leading up to Christmas were always the longest weeks of your childhood. What kid doesn’t get stir crazy when waiting to be out of school and get presents?

The weeks leading up to Christmas, for you, were an emotional whirlwind. Your life took so many unexpected turns and you were in a situation you never thought you’d end up in.

Ransom was now living with you in your apartment and on the right path to becoming a good person. You weren’t quite sure how you thought about that (Claire was enraged beyond belief), but how was were you going to try and help him?

After the first week or so it wasn’t too bad. He didn’t like the idea of sleeping on the couch instead of with you, but he wanted to be there so he had to follow as instructed.

As time went on, he started to be a different person. Was he the perfect gentleman with a clean record? No, of course not. That would be asking too much of him at once. He definitely showed signs of changing and was visibly making an effort to be better. He knew this was what had to be done to even begin to think about being with you.

It took him many weeks of hard work and determination to start the process. One of your first acts of business was get him a therapist. You had a therapist you visited every so often, so you got him the same one.

“You didn’t,” Ransom growled under his breath. You nodded calmly. “You know it’s what’s best. I can come with you to as many appointments as you’d like,” you reasoned gently, reaching across the table to put your hand on top of his. He glared at you from across the table and you sighed. “Or you can just go back to Boston and forget about this...”

“Goddammit (Y/N), fine!” He yelled reluctantly. You smiled.

He didn’t hate it as much as he thought he would. Was he reluctant to talk the first couple appointments? Yes. But after Michael (your therapist) had done a little gently poking, he opened up.

Ransom was also beginning to be a better person to his family and those around him. Right after he moved in with you, you made him call Harlan to update him on the situation. And while he was on the phone with Harlan, you wanted him to apologize to Marta and Fran for acting the way he had for so long.

“Granddad, can I talk to Marta?” Ransom asked flatly as he glared at you as you leaned against the wall next to him. He sighed and rolled his eyes as you gestured for him to start talking.

“Marta, I’m very VERY sorry for being such a douche,” Ransom huffed flatly. It wasn’t the apology you were expecting, but you took it. He wasn’t going to be perfect ever, and you were just happy to hear him apologize. You heard Marta responding as Ransom nodded a few times. You saw him roll his eyes at one point at which you gave him a warning look. His eyes darted to the floor after that.

After he made a very similar apology to Fran, he hung up and groaned loudly. You smiled and walked over to hug him.

“Proud of you,” you mumbled as your arms wrapped around his neck. He exhaled in amusement as he hugged you back.

“God, you always have to call me out on my shit,” he muttered. You pulled back and raised an eyebrow in amusement as his blue eyes gleamed back at you. He tried to lean in to kiss you but you put your hand against his lips to stop him.

“Nice try, Drysdale,” you smirked as you released yourself from his grip and walked to your room. No, you weren’t going to do anything like that with him until you decided he had worked hard enough, and Ransom knew that (but didn’t like to comply). He scoffed.

“Oh come on!”

He also had to try and make a good impression on Claire. You knew that would be more complicated and not as easy of a process, but he had to start somewhere.

Your first attempt did not end well. Claire had glared at him the whole time and only insulted him. And when Ransom had gotten tired of her attitude, he had (in the heat of the moment) called her a bitch and ended up with a bloody lip. You had to scold both of the five year olds; Claire for not even trying to be pleasant and punching him in the lip, and Ransom for allowing himself to get caught up like that.

“Holy shit (Y/N), I’m not perfect!” He had argued as you held a warm rag to his lip. You sighed, knowing he was right. Sometimes even Ransom had to call you out when your expectations were too high or unreasonable. It was a team effort, trying to make things better for the two of you. After all, you weren’t perfect either.

As time went on, Claire had softened up slightly. She would still take whatever chance she had to punch Ransom on the shoulder or slap him too hard on a back because “that’s what bros do,” she’d say through a gritted smile. Of course there were arguments that you would have to mediate, but you were willing to do it. Ransom was really trying.

Things weren’t always great between you and Ransom either. Sometimes you two would argue on behalf of the other’s behavior, get into a screaming match and isolate yourselves in different parts of the apartment.

Sometimes you would go and apologize, asking him to forgive you and to start over. Other times Ransom would swallow his pride and mutter a reluctant “sorry” to you as he stared at his feet. Only once had it gotten so bad that you threatened to kick Ransom out, after which he had whipped himself into shape by the next morning.

(One night Claire came over and found Ransom sitting outside your door with an angry expression on his face. Claire had laughed loudly and dramatically as she walked into your apartment and remembered the night she had sat there.)

Ransom had also done his best to try and be more sentimental. He would bring you little pastries and treats at your office, one day even going so far as to bring Claire something too.

“Set it on my desk and get out of here,” Claire snarled. She didn’t blink an eye as she saw him hesitantly set the bag on her desk. He glanced at you with nervous blue eyes before making his way quickly out. “Come on Claire,” you reprimanded with a hint of sarcasm. She smirked and giggled proudly as she took a bite into the chocolate croissant.

“Girl you know I have to stay superior to him. Gotta scare him so he stays scared,” she explained. You only shook your head and smiled before getting back to work.

And now, about four weeks later, you two were finally together. Ransom had began to ask you to be his girlfriend about two weeks into you two rooming together, but you shot him down quickly. Though it was (very, very) tempting to say yes and fall under his spell, you weren’t going to allow that. Your standards weren’t as loose as his, and considering your morals and standards you weren’t about to fall in love with a complete loser.

Claire was (somewhat) supportive to your face, but behind your back she would make threatening actions to Ransom (you know, the “I got my eyes on you” gesture, the slit throat gesture, the flipping off gesture, the works). Ransom was always quick to fight back with lots of mouthed words like “suck on that”, or “feels bad man”, or just plain taunting laughter.

Ransom really did try hard as a boyfriend. Considering he’d never been in a serious relationship it was weird and new, along with it took lots of adjusting to. Like wow, he was going to wake up with the same exact person everyday for a long period of time.

That’s wack.

Sure he had his moments that made your patience wear thin (“No Ransom we do not use the key to Claire’s apartment to go write ‘suck it’ on her bathroom mirror!” “Ransom I swear if you buy one more car I’m gonna lose it.”), but he always somehow made up for it in the end.

Christmas was coming up soon and you had no idea what you were going to do over the holiday. Stay at your apartment with Ransom? Go back to Boston with him? There were many options on what to do for Christmas and just thinking about it stressed you out.

One afternoon you sat at work when your work phone rang. You answered politely. “(Y/N), babe,” Ransom’s voice spoke through the phone. “Oh hey what’s up?” You asked in surprise as Claire rolled her eyes from beside you. “I think I know what we should do for Christmas,” Ransom began slowly. You straightened in your seat and raised your eyebrows. “Oh yeah, what do you have in mind?” You asked with a hint of tease in your voice.

“How’d you like to go to Vienna, Austria?”

WOAH. A TOXIC CHAPTER? AFTER LIKE 3 MONTHS??🤯 yeah, sorry guys. i was getting some passive aggressive hate for a while so i took a break and kinda lost motivation. i’m back now though, and i hope you enjoyed the chapter! also, if you’ve read any of my other ransom fics, stay tuned when reader and ransom go to austria because some things will be explained...😌
