Are you still accepting fanart as bribery? Because I made this based on the sneak peak you gave us.

The way my jaw dropped—-

Holy crap, this is one of the most convincing arguments yet. Omg I love it so much. It’s giving me feelings. Like— this is exactly what I had in mind when I wrote it.

The top right picture (“Talon used to miss the sky”) with the caves and the owls/talons??? Omg, genius deduction there. That’s exactly what that line was about and you captured it so perfectly with that atmospheric and eerie vibe.

And then Dick cuddling Jason followed by the pic of the two owls just—- seriously. I love this so much. This is going in my folder to look at for inspiration.

Magnificent!! Thank you so much for sharing this with us 💚💚💚💚💚😭😭😭😭😭💚💚💚💚💚💚🦉🦉🦉🦉

It’s intended to be the last, yes!

(Although I may be persuaded otherwise with sufficient and poignant reasons ksksks)

Oh! In case you’re preparing arguments on why Owl Song should (or shouldn’t) get a continuation after tomorrow, I think now’s the time to mention that every argument that lists (a) song(s) from the ambience/atmospheric playlist that most reminds you of that part gets special consideration ksksks ✨🦉💚

Small heads up, but the part of Owl Song tomorrow will read a little disjointed. Like fragmented moments and thoughts. To reflect the… situation.

So it’s going to be a little different in terms of writing style 🦉

You counting the days down to Jason's death day has the same energy as tumblr celebrating the stabbing of Julius Caesar 😭 I cannot explain it

I’m giving myself anxiety with that countdown ngl 😭😭😭

#I love jason and I’m so sorry #and I get all choked up thinking about tomorrow #and how I’m basically contributing to his pain like—- #dang #sensitive much oops #jason todd #batfamily #batfam #countdown #ghost talks

Tomorrow’s the day… 🦉🥀

In case you wanna cry early :))))

Tick-tock, timer’s counting down. Ten days until the 27th…

on that post with bruce pulling up to the warehouse you posted some days ago, i read a fic on it but where the warehouse exploded as soon as bruce steps down from his motorbike. i don't remember the title now but i can go look for it in my book marks if your interested <:

That sounds tempting but—- I guess there’s no happy ending? TwT because if there’s not I fear I couldn’t handle the angst TwT

#ghost talks #look I’m softTM #that’s why owl song is a bit of an experiment #I’ve never written a fic with the intended destination being a main character death #I just can’t handle the agony of it 😭

[ghost-bxrd]

What are your thoughts on batman beyond?and how would it play out in your narrative?

I’m afraid I don’t know anything about the Beyond storyline as of now. (There’s very little canon I know, truth be told.)

I’m just perpetually existing in that fandom space where I know some things… but only very select stuff.

Yessssss, Bruce absolutely spiraling because he thinks he’s about to lose Jason again—- so good

Prompt:

Jason (maybe on a dare, maybe because he’s loopy etc.) calls Bruce (or any of the Bats, really) to tell him he loves him.

Bruce is convinced Jason is either dying or about to.

Ngl. Seeing Sealsdaily posts and thinking of Jason is my newest guilty pleasure I just scroll through that page and just point and say, "Yep that's Jason." Like. 20 times over. That's my relaxing activity now SCRUFFY? Jaybin. In suspicious green liquid judging you? Jaybin. GRUMPY? very disgruntled Jaybin. Seals... Wow.

The top right 😭💚💚💚💚💚 all I can see there is the Bats catching Jason in the cave pools post his red hood debut, and Jason immediately thinking he screwed over his whole gig—

And them just immediately assuming he’s a ghost.

That look is just phenomenal. So incredulous. So caught. So awesome 👏😭😂💚💚💚💚

So there's a fic in the plan👁👁

“Who says I want anything? Maybe I just want to brag about my new jacket,“ he grins, “And my new rug.“

Nightwing spits at him, and Jason laughs.

“Don’t pretend to care now, Bitchwing. At least I’m doin’ something with it instead of letting it catch dust in the basement. You should thank me, really.

“You know nothing,“ Nightwing hisses, borderline feral in the way he strains against Batman’s restrictive hold, escrimas crackling dangerously, “You know nothing you despicable little—“

“Jesus,“ Jason whistles, flipping the safety off the gun he keeps aimed at the tank chock-full of fear gas. Wearing a helmet with its own air filtration system sure comes in handy at times, “Just get yourself a new comforter off Ebay or something. Rich assholes like you surely know a guy or two who like shooting exotic animals in their free time, right?“

— sneak peek of “Our Dead Drink the Sea” 🌊🦭

Thinking of Bruce and what he must have felt pulling up to the warehouse, seeing only a burning ruin—

And still digging through the rubble like a madman despite knowing all he’d find would most likely be a body…

I wonder if he hoped, for a moment, he’d find nothing. Because like this—- Robin couldn’t really be dead, right?

And then the relief/devastation when he did find him…

#oh no I’m making myself sad again #this hurts #just—- #oof #owl song isn’t good for my mental health istg 😭😂 #ghost talks #a death in the family #Bruce Wayne #Batdad #Batman #musings

how would your AUs react to joker junior Tim? Like if it happened if they somehow became aware of the canon one, your choice.

just curious, I’m sorry it this stuff isn’t allowed rn

Well in some Au’s (like Court Family, Shuck, and Owl Song) it wouldn’t have a chance to happen. Mostly because I’m a fan of killing off Joker early and in a very unspectacular fashion (because Joker would hate going out without a show).

But in general terms, all of them would be horrified. And I think Jason would spend a fair amount of time being terrified of Tim, depending on how Tim’s recovery process is going. But… yeah, theyre just not a good combo during that time.

The others would try their utmost to help Tim, obviously. With various degrees of success. In most Au’s this would probably also be the last straw for anyone of the Bats (but I’m partial to Jason… which tracks) to kill Joker. Have him out of their lives once and for all.

Still, I think the largest issue here would be helping Tim recover while simultaneously not triggering Jason too hard. So… different wings of the manor for them both.

#joker Junior Tim can be really intriguing #most fics are just too dark for me sadly #but yeah I think it’s especially interesting to see people handle the relationship between Jason and Tim during that time #because Jay’s trauma with joker would definitely come back with Tim #Tim makes a terrifying villain it’s just true #I think he could be worse than joker even #I love Tim #but heaven help us if he turns evil #jason todd #batfamily #dick grayson #batfam #bruce wayne #tim drake #batman #ghost talks
