#and just the coolest mentor/mother-daughter type relationship with Babs who practically adopts her on sight

"Like a mother"

There’s this bit in Batgirl 25 where Cass makes a video for Barbara and uses that phrase. Kinda breaks my heart. I love their relationship so much.

#I wanted to experiment with colors and draw snuggles so here you go #btw this is 100% Barbara who uses a wheelchair #they’re just chillin on a bed ☺️ #barbara gordon #cassandra cain #batgirl squad #my art #but yeah I love the Batgirl run so freakin much #all the stuff with David Cain and Shiva is fascinating #tons of parallels and contrasts between Bruce and Cass #awesome sorta-rivals-to-friends arcs with Tim and Steph #and just the coolest mentor/mother-daughter type relationship with Babs who practically adopts her on sight #helps her train and learn to speak and have fun and (semi-successfully) helps Cass gain a sense of self-preservation haha #basically chucks the Batgirl mantle at her the first chance she gets #I adore them
