Batman: We do not kill !
Every batkid in history: So anyway I started blasting.
Batman: ....We do kill ! Murder is okay ! As a treat ! There is no second chance ! I'm sure being a criminal is in their DNA. I might signaled prostitutes to the IRS tonight because they are not declaring all this cash i'm sure.
Batkids: I'M GOING TO BE THE LEAST LETHAL HERO IS THE WORLD YOU HEAR ME SHITHEAD ?!

My head canon is that Athanasia eats bat burgers for the first time and eats the same way Bruce does with a knife and fork.
Like this
Tumblr media
When her brothers found out about it, they kept saying things like, "It's in the genes; you cannot change something that's grave in your genes."
And they truly believe that because Athanasia never had bat burgers before, she hadn't seen Bruce eat burgers.
They keep saying, "You are your daddy's daughter; no DNA test is needed," and they keep saying, out of bruce children, you are the most similar to him and let me tell you, she does not take that as a compliment.

Palestinian Al Ghuls headcanons:
The Al Ghul palace is loaded with sweets (Palestinian homes are always ready to receive an unannounced guest with food, sweets and Arabic or Turkish coffee)
Every Al Ghul has multiple advanced degrees or will achieve them later on (Education, highly valued in Palestinian society for both men and women, brings honor to a family)
The birth of everyone in the Al Ghul family was greatly celebrated whether they were a boy or girl (The birth of a baby is a particularly joyous occasion in Palestinians society.)
This applies to Bruce and Talia: It has also become common for Palestinians living in exile to marry people from other nations and cultures. 
The Al Ghuls have dinner together every night (Families gather often to share meals, exchange stories and news of loved ones.)
Israel has been illegally occupying Palestinian land for years. The minute Palestine fights back Israel and Western media want to make it look like Israel is the victims. People in Palestine do not have food, water nor electricity. And there are people in Israel posting tiktoks saying "Stay thirsty". How can people lack such empathy???
You don't have to be Muslim to support Palestine only Human

Jason shut the door to their new apartment and asked the brats, “What do you guys think?” 
“It’s too small,” Damian said instantly, stomping back out of the bedroom to scowl at Jason, “this is unacceptable.” 
On the one hand, Damian was right. It was too small. Since this was literally the only apartment he could get, they had to take the one bedroom. It was a large bedroom, so at least there was that, but there was only one. 
The size of the living room and kitchen sort of helped lessen how miserable it would be. Sort of. 
Thankfully it wasn’t going to be forever. Jason didn’t even sign a lease, so as soon as he had everything necessary together for applying to a bigger place, he’d be free to do so. 
“You said I would receive my own quarters once we arrived in the States,” Damian said, giving Jason a withering glare. 
On the other hand, Damian was a brat, so Jason returned the scowl and said, “I never promised that. That would be ideal, yes, but we’re a little stuck with what we can afford, at the moment.” 
“I will not share a bedroom with them,” Damian said, pointing at the two girls.

Nun just thinking about Damian being the baby on his Dad’s side of the family, and the oldest on his mom’s side. LIKE JUST IMAGINE
(Respawn and Athanasia Al Ghul being the siblings on his mom’s side btw, dad’s side is obvi)
Like he goes from rolling his eyes at Dick when he tells him to do something, to resisting the urge to strangle Respawn (they gotta give that kid a name) when he does the same thing
EEKKKKKKK I LOVE ITTTTTT🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾

Batfam & Autocorrect
Pt.1 bc I’ll inevitably forget someone
Bruce: agonises so much about what he has to say that he doesn’t need autocorrect. Still has it disabled though, it kept on correcting his kids’ names and that made him disproportionately upset
Alfred: has autocorrect but never needs it, he’s added all the names to his personal dictionary so they don’t get corrected
Dick: has autocorrect enabled and thank god he does. Types so quickly and inaccurately it’s a wonder it works at all.
Barbara: cusses out her autocorrect on the regular but refuses to disable it bc she refuses to be beaten by a computer program when that is literally her whole gimmick.
Jason: doesn’t read his texts before sending them, doesn’t know he has autocorrect, whether the text makes sense to the other person is not his problem
Tim: has autocorrect on. Does not know how to spell necessary and misspells it so often that autocorrect is starting to learn it as well
Stephanie: has autocorrect on but misspells things so badly that it makes her texts more difficult to understand.
Cass: has autocorrect, never uses it, she communicates in emojis only
Duke: disabled autocorrect as soon as he realised it was an option, still has atrocious spelling unless he actually focuses on what he’s doing
Damian: like Babs he refuses to let autocorrect best him. Wouldn’t need it but he gets so annoyed by the idea of autocorrect that he ends up misspelling all of it
Carrie: another serial misspeller, Bruce can teach kids to fight but he actually cannot teach them to spell, Carrie still gets mad at autocorrect even when it’s right though
Terry: genuinely believes that autocorrect doesn’t know what it’s on about (he has misspelled eleven words in a three word sentence, the justice league themselves have come to investigate how this is even possible)
Matt: uses text to speech, doesn’t care for autocorrect but he leaves it be
Jarro: is not allowed a phone until he’s older
Helena B.: as an English teacher she can spell just fine. She disabled it because it would change words she got right into different words
Selina: autocorrect is not enabled but probably should be. It’s not horrible misspelling, but it’s noticeable
Talia: doesn’t trust autocorrect, turned it off immediately and without hesitation
Athanasia: was so offended by the first autocorrection she received that she actually got a new phone and got rid of autocorrect
Jim (Gordon): has autocorrect and doesn’t feel strongly either way about it.

I saw your story about male Talia and Bruce's sister, I just loved it. If your requests are open I would like to ask for Ra's Al Ghul and Bruce's older sister (or any of Bruce's family members)
Would You Even Dare
Ra's al Ghul X Wayne! Reader
Bruce Wayne X Aunt! Reader
Warnings:suggestive content, explicit language, angst, guns, child kidnapping, and injury
Words:1492
Arthur's notes! Hardly anything canon about Ra's is true in the story. Ra's didn't try to kill Tim. Ra's is a good father/grandfather. He doesn't lead the league of assassin's.. At least not anymore. Older Reader 50s to early 60s. She is Thomas Wayne's sister!.. Also Athanasia is in the story. Quote from Mentalist show.
Y/N reunites with a old friend hoping he will help her.
Tumblr media
In all the many centuries Ra's had lived through. He did not wish to live another 100 years, nor even a day without her beside him. He for the first time considered letting age take his life, with her right beside him.
Deep inside he was infected with a wound deep within his heart that not even the Lazarus could heal. What pains the former assassin, was that he truly ached to be with her. Though it was better that he be alone.. As those who are close to him are the ones who become hurt.
Ra's left the league of assassin's to his only son Dusan much to his son's shock. He would have a long time ago if only for the reason to not allow such a heavy burden.
Thousands of miles away Y/N Wayne was thinking of her precious grandniece whom had disappeared 3 years ago.
Y/N closes her eyes remembering being taken by Slade. While there she saw, a young girl with him. She looked to be the age as her niece would be by now. Her face was concealed but her voice.. Her hair.. It was a Wayne trait. It was her father's hair.. Y/N's nephews hair.
She was ruthless but it seemed by Slade's orders as she could see the young girl did harbor sympathy for her. Slade did not allow them much time together if at all.
Perhaps it was a, young girl he found and chose to use her for his bidding. Though her heart seemed to say it was indeed her.
She still was afraid it was her heart hoping too much but what if it is? Slade is certainly capable of doing such a terrible thing. Especially if it brought torture unto the al Ghul's and the Wayne's.
Using a yacht she sits in the drivers seat programing it to Ra'sh al Ghul's location. He had only told Talia and Y/N only for the reason for emergency. She sits on the seat thinking back to a, old memory as the anticipation to see him was consuming her.
~
Y/N hadn't heard from her nephew in over 3 months. She was growing worried. She left Gotham to investigate where her nephew had gone. She knew he was planning to make major changes to Gotham. For that reason she was truly terrified he would meet the same fate as her brother and his wife.....
Eventually she found evidence he went to a hidden place within the vast wilderness. In a ancient city located in the Himalayas. She knew of whom was there...
Y/N entered into the fortress courtesy of the assassin's after she said the coded word, Ra's told her many years prior. Ra's al Ghul stepped forth to see his dear friend.
His eyes saw her beauty but his heart went to many years ago to her saving his own life after a bombing from an attack. One of his many enemies found his safe house and tried to kill him. Y/N was with a, team of spies investigating the, same enemies as the ones who attempted to kill Ra's. They assisted in finding survivors. All were dead but miraculously she found the wounded assassin and nursed him back to health.
"Ms Wayne" he greets
"Ra's al Ghul" she greeted to the widower "you know why I'm here"
"your nephew came to me. Given his relation to you. I thought it wise not to confine my knowledge to ensure he is not another Wayne to be buried"
She softly smiled "I suppose we are even now"
"never are, we to be even Ms Wayne"
She sweetly smiled "I suppose I should leave before he sees me. Please don't tell him I was here"
"I will utter no such thing of your concern for him. Safe travels my friend" he gently smiled
~
"we need to talk" she first said to Ra's who was standing in the sand
"what do you want?" he coldly said though his heart was, warm to have her in his presence, however.. He could not allow her inside...
"I deserve better than that Ra's!" she accused him
She truly did and it was tournament not treating her with the kindness she deserves. He grunted stepping to her, her arms folded glaring up to him. She was still so beautiful when she was angry at him. He then steps to his hut. She quickly followed after him.
"that's it?! You're not going to say anything? You're not at all curious nor care as to why I've come?"
The two step inside as she slammed the door behind her.
"you are waisting your time if you believe there is anything to flourish between us" he said with his heart breaking
"this isn't about us Ra's.." she snapped back
"then why?" he asked now realizing that she was truly worried.
"it's about Athanasia"
"tell me everything"
.....
Ra's and Y/N left with their gear. The two resided in a safe-house nearest to the place of which she was captured. The two barely spoke to each other unless it was regarding Athanasia.
"we should lay low and start fresh tomorrow. I can sleep on the couch. You may have the bed" he said in a blunt tone
"the great Ra's al Ghul sleeping on a couch that is sight I'd never thought I'd see" she chuckled, to which he rolled his eyes. She tried to hold her words inside but fails "why didn't you stay?"
He sighed "I believed it was for the best"
"it wasn't.." she sighed stuttering unable to hold her emotions inside especially in his presence that made her feel safe enough to "you weren't there Ra's! I'm so angry at you! I'm angry you left me and I... I wanted, needed you"
He only remains silent in his guilt Y/N turned away to hide her tears. Ra's stepped softly touching her shoulders. He only moved forward because she leaned into his touch. He kisses her neck snacking his arm across her folded arms with his other across her waist.
"my intentions were to keep you safe from my enemies. I did not intend to hurt you. I blamed myself for your pain. I was.. Frightened Y/N. If for all of my many years of living had made any purpose. It was you. You have made each century worth living.. I have only fallen more deeply and fondly for you"
.....
Ra's dealt with Slade as Y/N departs to look for Athanasia. Y/N senses a presence. She turned in a cautioned manner. She sees her.
"give me a good reason why I should not shoot you!!" she threatened her gun aiming to the older woman.
"Athanasia" she calmly said now seeing her face.. It was truly her.
"that's not who I am! Stop moving!!"
"you are safe, you are loved-" she stammered as a, heart wrenching shout from her niece came back
"stop it!" she shouts her hand shaking with the gun in her hand
She steps close to the young girl "and you are wise"
"get away from me!" her voice shouted but her heart took control as she drops the gun.
Athanasia let out a heartbroken cry as she is embraced.. She was free from the mind-controlling poison Slade had taken from Ivy. She clings to her tightly sobbing. All her past memories she believed were comforting illusions.. She knew were real.
With Slade taken care of. Ra's hears familiar crying from his granddaughter. He runs to find her in embrace. He softly smiled to them.
"let's go home" he said as they part.
"grandfather?" she mumbled taken aback
"hello my dear" he greets
Athanasia was welcomed with warm and tearful hugs by her, family. Ra's held Y/N's hand standing from afar. He feels comfort, he feels peace.
"I think I may consider a early retirement" she casually said
"would you consider residing with me?" he offered
"is that a, proposal Ra'sy?" she asked intrigued
"would you dare even consider?" he smiled softly to her.
"would you even dare ask?"
3 years later....
In the late night. On the eve of Mrs al-Ghul's birthday. A group of vigilantes sneak onto the couples private island.
"shhh you'll break our cover!" Damian accused Stephanie has she had just tripped over a log.
"little brother is right. This is a covert operation" Athanasia said in her pink pajamas while her baby brother wore his green pajamas.
"sorry" she whispers, wishing her purple bunny slippers had more protection.
"it's a sleepover guys not a, stake out" Jason scoffed, holding his pillow "besides Gramps already knows we're coming"
"still she raised Batman himself" Dick added in defense to the twins, in his bright blue pajamas.
"quiet" Bruce grunts wearing his own pajamas and robe.
Ra's kisses his sleeping wife's lips. He hears soft footsteps in their living room inside their home and smiles to himself. They're all here.

What phycological diseases have the Al Ghuls after the Pit in your opinion? Including Athanasia and Ibn (for me he's still not Damian, but one more son). Better headcanons
Cause seems the all have problems, really
The major one is PTSD for obvious reason. Damian has it badly.
Damian hides it as the rest of the family does. They don't talk about it. Maybe except Dusan which in my head is a dramatic bitch. Dusan will legit use it as an excuse to everything. "I died! My bones are broken, my soul is broken can you please just leave me be!"
Going back to Damian, the first time Talia knew he died tore her heart apart. But it wasn't until Damian woke up shaking with his eyes glowing green that it hit her so hard. He has the same nightmares as her. She failed to protect her baby, she should've given him up for abortion. He would be better off without her.
Talia blames herself a lot. First time in her life does she dare have a conversation about Lazarus Pit trauma, but Damian cuts her short. She may be his Mother, and that's why Damian will never show weakness around the Demon's daughter.
That's when Talia breaks more because she realizes that despite her being his Mom, he still sees her as a superior. Her Father's fault as he puts so much emphasis on a hierarcy within the League. She bows to change that but it's not so easy when any threat to the League's hierarchy will be meet as treason and death.
He revives his entire life at once. He is paranoid. But what Ra's has the most issues with is his health. In the comics we often see Ra's dismiss his pain and broken body after the Lazarus baths he takes. He says it's for the greater good. It follows his dogma of "the end justifies the mean" and that includes his own health. In the Gotham series he's literally a zombie.
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
He's all bones, he's like sans from Undertale basically. Ra's never ever lets anyone see his pain at being revived expect when he is being revived. Why do I say this? Because it's canon that he forces Talia to watch him revive. She calms him down instantly. Remember that panel when Talia hugs Ra's and tells him he is loved and he is fine after his bath? Yeah, he may not want to talk about it later. But while it's happening he becomes vulnerable around his daughter.
Tumblr media
Only during it though, because there are panels of him fleeing to his room when he's not well.
Talia, *sighs*, she is broken. And when I mean broke I mean it. I think she age regressed. When Bruce visits Nyssa after she killed Ra's and Talia died. Talia tells him to leave, leave her alone.
Tumblr media
This is Talia completely traumatized. She wants her big sister. She can't handle a man, a husband, a lover right now. Her Beloved is not in her radar.
Her Father just died. She needs family. And that is something that Bruce threatened in the past panels. So Talia can't let anyone beat her sister much less Bruce. And- Nyssa manipulated her badly. I mean look at how Nyssa caresses Talia like she's a pet? Ra's before dying told her to take care of Talia. Bruce said at the very end that Nyssa already failed Ra's. Because he knows Talia is broken.
Athanasia wants Ra's to be there when she revives. He is her dad at this point. And Ra's treats her like he would Talia. Less protective because she is the spawn of other people. But it's clear that Ra's raised her. Which means that yes, Athanasia learned that it's ok to be vulnerable after you revive. But you better not breath a word about your weakness later.
She is supposed to bear it down and keep her head held high. And if she feels under the weather? She better hide herself from the danger of the League. Assassins can use it to their advantage and kill her in her moment of weakness. Her Mother is her only source of comfort outside of the Lazarus Pit chambers. Talia forced her to share her pain, so Athanasia knows she is safe with Mom. Unlike Damian who was raised even worse than her because he's a male.
When Ibn died Talia cried like no tomorrow. Ibn is normal, he's more Wayne than al Ghul. Which is why cries when he revives. He clings to his Mom for weeks after his bath. He wears his pain and trauma in his sleeve for all to see. He doesn't know how to hide it much less the why? He wasn't raised in a murder cult he can cry all he wants and no one will shoot an arrow through his head and sneer at his weakness and laugh at him and, well you get the point. What kills him the most is knowing his Mother has passed through this before yet she doesn't utter a word about it.
He is shoked and doesn't.stop.asking.questions. Talia is al Ghul through and through. Retired but still one. She doesn't want to talk about it but forces herself to grit her teeth and answer questions. She wanted to be free and have a normal life, then she better act like a normal person around her son and break generational curses.

They were definitely changing things up or making them exaggerated, putting the blame on him.
"Mother, your son just pushed me when I'm about to jump, causing me to fall; if weren't for Drake, I would have died."
"What! Stop changing things up. I did it because they were charging at you."

I know we don't talk about Injustice but Damian having a secret long lost sister that he's just failed to mention all these years is fucking hilarious. Especially if you interpret them as twins. The sheer comedic potential of Damian one day just casually mentioning a twin over breakfast and the entire table freezing....

Writing for the Al Ghul Family is so difficult. For Example I want to write Damian as a character who struggles with right and wrong. Like he does frequently in canon. Then I also want to write Talia as someone who is morally grey and compassionate. But it's difficult to write a kid who is so angry and entitled but then deny how a large part of that is because of how the Al Ghul's raised him. How can I write a caring, compassionate mother Talia al Ghul when her kid is struggling with so much, let's be honest, abuse.
But then I fall into the trap of making it sound like Batdad is a great parent when in a lot of cases he isn't. Like I'm making Talia Al Ghul to be an evil parent just to make Bruce sound like a good parent. I despise the whole Batfamily is good and the Al Ghul Family is evil, black and white nonsense. Especially when the Batfamily has also fucked up with their own quite frequently.
Not to mention if you make the argument that raising your kids as assassins is bad then how can someone make the argument that Bruce training kids to fight crime around the ages of 10-12 years old as any better?
I just want to write morally grey Al Ghul family but I keep on falling into the trap that is called canon and it is really hard to get out of it. At this point it's difficult to write the Al Ghul's as anything but evil.
Anyways thank you for listening to me vent my internal struggles.
My condolences to any other writers out there who are suffering the same fate.
