Brudick For The Ask Game? Or Aztim If You Havent Done Them Yet

brudick for the ask game? or aztim if you haven’t done them yet

I'm gonna do both one after another, I hope it's okay!

AzTim:

SHIP IT!!! 💕💕💕

1. What made you ship it?

I think I could talk so much about how I picture their relationship and why I think there are many homoerotic tones in their relationship but mostly I got obsessed with them due to Knightfall presenting an scenario where Tim is the only bat around who is concerned about Jean-Paul and who is facing the mess next to him. The fact that in a certain way it was Tim who *made* JP Batman got me whipped.

2. What are your favorite things about the ship?

Their messy past! Knightfall is such a delicious event and I adore that JP and Tim have a lot of things only they know and only they lived. JP was the very first person to cover for Bruce as Batman, and Tim was barely begining as Robin. Tim WAS JP's Robin, and I don't think ppl talk enough about the feelings they would about it. Plus JP has a lot of catholic trauma and guilt which I think would make very hot if he dated an agnostic queer Tim.

Plus something something Batman/Robin rp

3. Is there an unpopular opinion you have on your ship?

As with Ra'sTim, it's mostly about the characters themselves. My perception on Jean-Paul is that he is a complex person, with trauma and pain, and I picture JeanTim as a complicated situationship. As much as I love dark scenarios, I don't really lean into making it abuse for the sake of it. For me, it's a relationship that is born after years of yearning and messy feelings, longing and hidden desires.

BruDick:

Ship it! 🤭

Certainly not the ship I'm known for but I like it!

1. What made you ship it?

Probably how kind the fandom is; opposite to other Batship fandoms, BruDick fandom has shown to be extremely nice and respectful, something that encouraged me to interact a little with their content, and I loved it. Bruce and Dick might not be my favs but I adore their trope as a ship and I think they CANONICALLY have an homoerotic subtone. There's a reason Batman & Robin were used as gay code for so many years, and ir was due to Bruce and Dick and their marriage!

2. What are your favorite things about the ship?

Definitely the fandom. As I said, ppl on BruDick fandom are extremely nice. You can open a fic or fan comic and not be worried about unnecessary hate because they don't rely on that. In fact, many BruDick media treats other characters with kindness and respect as well: It's so comforting to see BruDick fandom being so respectful to Bruce's female love interests in canon, as sexism is sadly a problem in BL fandom. When I see BruDick, I don't have to swallow the bitterness of seeing sexist stuff, or hate towards other bat children.

Also BruDick introduced me to the idea of Tim being their bio son and that makes me feral 🙏

3. Is there an unpopular opinion you have on your ship?

Probably not? I usually agree with most of their depictions. I personally don't mind if they're messy tho, because I see characters as dolls. If anything my problem is that I'm very bad at writing Dick because he is an awfully human character (he's not as frozen into an archetype as Tim, Jean-Paul, Ra's, Jason, Kon, Lex) which makes him a headache for me because I struggle trying to imagine how he would feel like. Hence why I mostly do BruDick as background and not as main in my fics.

I made something to convey my feelings on episode five

I hate to say it but GOD pompous pep is what I wished Ra'sTim was 😩🥵💕 the yearning, the desperation, the bitterness, the sarcasm!

The way in which Vlad *will* have Danny whether the boy agrees or not, and the way in which Danny won't stop getting himself inside Vlad's life in a selfish, bratty attitude disguised as hero work.

It's brilliant. Perfect dynamic.

LOSING MY SHIT ABOUT THIS WIKI ENTRY ON VLAD

IT MAKES ME FERAL HE'S SUCH A DIRTY MAN & HE HAS HER TRAPPED IN HIS HANDS!!! 😩

I was always so caught up on Sladin I also somehow never really processed the line about Terra like:

"What did you do to her?" "Nothing she didn't want."
