Dick Grayson, inside Ric Graysons head:

Dick, my baby boy, please come out, I know you’re in there.

Ric Grayson and Ian Wayne. Nope, never heard of those two. I just know Dick Grayson and Damian Wayne.

Here are some designs that I made for our beloved batboys! If you want, then I’ll do the girls ;)

hehehe. for some reason im still fuckin reading injustice and let me just say its the worst. they make damian this hillbilly with long rockstar hair and hes like 19 years old and dont get me started with athanasia shes one of the worst characters in injustice, for some reason i have this theory that shes actually the daughter of bane instead of batman, talia only claimed athanasia as the daughter of batman just because she wanted to confuse bruce. i know a lot of people dont really read injustice but since this whole detective comics #1000 was horrible (just my opinion) i was just why the fuck not?

So...hey everyone! I’ve been feeling down lately and... I made this. This caption is actually a lyric in ‘get you the moon’ by kina and I totally suggest listening to the song! It’s really sad though so, yeah. Anyways this design was based on Damian Wayne. I have an OC that I would share with you guys sometime once things in my life have calmed down.

H/C Of What Damian Is Like While Fasting.

A/N: AYEEEEOOOOO! Since next month is Ramadan, I decided why not make a headcannon of this arabian batboy of what he’s like while he’s fasting? 

~Damian can’t go out on patrol. EVER

~Bruce forbids him from leaving the house

~Damian wakes up super early so he can eat

~Alfred is also awake so he can prepare food for him 

~When Damian breaks his fast, Alfred absolutely spoils him with food

~Dick, Jason, and Tim get extremely jealous

~He gets comments from Dick, like, “How can you not eat? Your so strong! I, personally cannot, and I mean it, cannot eat for the whole day.”

~Jason always teases him. “Come on, just one bite, I know you want it!”

~Damian is super cranky

~He takes a nap for an hour to get his mind off of fasting

~Bruce and Alfred make it easier for him by putting the food away in the pantry

~Damian watches movies on Netflix and plays with his million pets

~He tries not to run or walk a lot because one way or another he’s going to get thirsty and hungry

~Bruce is worried that all of a sudden Damian is going to collapse

~Damian speaks arabic when he’s fasting because he feels like it

~He wears a kandoora around the manor

~He’s very snappy when people talk to him

~He prefers fasting in peace

~He gets irritated over every single thing

~He’s like, “WhY Is ThErE A cUp iN ThE SiNk?!” or “-TT- tHat fLoWer PoT oVeR tHeRe is MISSPLACED!!!!”

~He has to be kind to everyone, that’s part of Ramadan when your fasting

~Damian really wants to call Tim a bastard

~Instead he says, “Drake likes blasterd blasterds.”

~He’s too tired to think of a better way of saying it, so he just leaves

~Overall, Damian will be really tired and cranky

~Whenever Damian breaks his fast, he first eats dates and after that, biryani

~Damian loves biryani

~And dates

Made a little something for Shazam, but ya know, I tried my best XD

H/C of Damian Wayne Wearing Glasses

-He was 9 when he realized he needed glasses.

-He couldn’t see that Talia was going to throw him a katana from far away

-He’s near-sighted

-So, he ended up not catching the katana which resulted in him having three stiches on his right arm

-Talia is also near-sighted

-But since, Talia is too big of an assassin, she is contacts all the way

-So, Damian ended up wearing contacts when he was with his mother

-When Talia dropped him off at Bruce’s though...

-Damian decided to wear glasses

-He still wore contacts for a few months

-Then he asked Bruce for glasses

-When picking out his glasses, Damian chose a black rectangular Ray-Ban glasses

-They waited 2 weeks for it to come

-When it finally came...

-Damian quickly put it on and went to the mirror

-He won’t admit it but he looked pretty cool

-When everyone saw it, they couldn’t believe their eyes

-Damian Wayne, the blood son of the Batman was wearing glasses

-Dick, of course, complimented him and gushed about it

-Jason laughed and shoved Damian when he saw it

-Tim didn’t notice it after 2 days

-Barbara compared her glasses to Damians

-Steph just smiled and ruffled his hair

-Cass tried on his glasses

-She looked like an owl

-Damian still wears contacts if he does something active or he goes out for patrol

-But other than that, he wears his glasses often

-Talia was shocked, but didn’t care

-Alfred, he didn’t mind

-Bruce was actually proud

-Jon and Damian were mistaken for twins one time

-Jon loves it Damian wears glasses

H/C Of Damian Having Braces

A/N: @akira-daiyamondo-suta I’m so sorry if this took so long! I’ve been busy with school and such! But I hope you like it!

~Damian realized he needed braces when he brushed his teeth one night

~He frowned and looked closer in the mirror and realized he had crowding teeth

~The next day he informed his father about it

~Of course, Bruce decided to take him to the orthodontist for a check up

~The orthodontist confirmed that Damian needed braces

~Damian was mortified

~He already was wearing glasses and on top of all that he has to wear braces

~He was upset but agreed to do it

~A few weeks after that, he went to the orthodontist and started with treatment

~The orthodontist first put on spacers between his teeth

~He had to wear them for a few days

~Then they took them off, a few days after that, they put them on again

~After a few more days, the orthodontist takes off the spacers

~Next step was the appliance

~The appliance’s purpose was to make room in his mouth

~Before putting on the appliance, they first had to make a mold of his mouth

~After making the mold they measured the appliance to match the size of his mouth

~They finally put the appliance on

~He had to wear it for a week, but Bruce or Alfred had to turn the appliance with this hook everyday until his next appointment when they take it off

~After a week, the orthodontist takes it off

~THEN THE LAST STEP COMES...BRACES

~A few days after they took out the appliance, they put on the braces

~It was a two hour procedure

~When Damian was done, Bruce took him straight home

~He looked in the mirror, he felt awkward seeing himself, wearing glasses and also braces

~Dick was grinned and took lots of photos

~Jason started laughing so hard his stomach hurt

~Tim was speechless

~Babs was telling him all the fun facts about braces

~Steph hugged him

~Cass pinched his cheeks and smiled

~Jon and Billy keep on teasing him for eating soft foods

~Damian doesn’t really talk much so people won’t really see his braces

~He has to say goodbye to all his favorite foods

~Brushing and flossing is a nightmare for him

~Sometimes his head hurts because of the braces

~He has to go to the ortho to tighten them

~Everyone at school is shocked to see Damian wearing braces and glasses at the same time

~But Damian knows that braces aren’t permanent

~Which is why he doesn’t let it bother him

So I started reading Batman Volume 10: Knightmares and I just want to bring up the fact that Bruce has been traumatized about the fact that no one around him is safe. And the way he brought up Dick getting shot in the head, broke my heart because it shows that he cares.

He's doing his best to be a good father but he's losing himself. And when he said that his children were not safe, that made my eyes go Niagara Falls.

(Also if you can't see it properly, I suggest clicking on the photo, it shows more clearly that way)

Dick trying to explain his name is Dick when he finally regains his memories:

Everyone else:

(VIDEO IS NOT MINE BTW)

THINGS RIC GRAYSON KNOWS:

- His parents are dead, and he woke up fifteen years too late to make it to their funeral.

- His doctors tell him he’s forgotten half his life even though he retains a lot of the knowledge from it, and he might never get his memories back or return to the person he was before he was - apparently - shot in the head.

- Everyone expects him to be totally on board with going back to a life where things like getting shot in the head happen to him. Twice.

- Everyone he’s met since he woke up tells him they’re his family and his friends and they love him. Every single one of them would most likely erase him from existence in a second if there was even a chance it would replace him with the him he used to be, the one they actually love.

- Everyone is too busy telling him who he is, to ever get around to asking him who he is.

- When you’re an acrobat, success or failure, safety or injury, all of it comes down to trusting your instincts, ones honed by hours and months and years of endless repetition, instilling in you a gut-level ability to just KNOW if you can make a leap or not. But instincts have to be reliable, and reliability has to be earned. He now has more new instincts than he can count, none of which he can remember earning, and he can’t rely on a single one. Too bad so many of these unreliable instincts revolve around whether or not he can trust his impressions of people.

- No matter what he does, he will always come in second best to….himself. He could save the damn world, but apparently he’s already done that, so cross that off the bucket list. Any attachments he forms to his old self’s old friends will always be the second time around as far as they’re concerned. The closer he comes to the person they remember, the more they’ll forget not to hold past grievances against him that he can’t remember committing, and apparently, the further he gets from being a knock-off of himself, the less people even want to get to know him at all.

- Making the choice to risk his life and body and mind for the sake of innocents, day after day after day isn’t an easy one. But apparently it should be, when a previous version of him already made that choice and now any other choice he makes will be the wrong one, a disappointment, a letdown. Much like he himself, designated runner-up from the very second he woke up from being shot in the head. His entire life and new sense of self the result of another man’s sacrifice - a man he’s expected to step into the shoes of, whether or not they’re shoes he’d ever want to wear. Shoes he can’t even remember the past him’s reason for putting on in the first place.

- It took him from the time he could walk to become the acrobat he was by the time his parents died. It took him from that moment on to become the man that everyone tells him Dick Grayson was. Its occurred to exactly nobody that fifteen plus years of growth as a person might not be possible to replicate in a mere fifteen days.

- Nobody wants him to grow as a person. Everyone wants him to just be someone else.

THINGS RIC GRAYSON DOESN’T KNOW:

- Where 95% of the scars on his body come from.

- How anyone whose life has been as full of tragedy and pain as his scar tissue and wikipedia page indicate his has been, can go through life smiling and laughing and cheerful, the way everybody seems to be expecting him to.

- Why everybody thinks he should be in a hurry to reconnect with alleged family and friends whose ranks are full of dead people that he, Ric Grayson, will never actually know as anything other than yet one more person for him to mourn.

- Why this Bruce guy, if he loves him so much, waited until he was twenty-three to adopt him.

- Why, if he’s the adopted son of a freaking billionaire, did the past him live in a shit part of a shit city and work as a gymnastics teacher? Dick Grayson might have had his reasons, but without a clue what they were, to Ric Grayson all it looks like is he was just the PR stunt the internet seems to think Wayne took him in as.

- Why - when he can’t actually remember even going to an R-rated movie in his life - its just assumed he’d be fine with being shown footage of his own brains being blown out on candid camera.

Etc, etc.

People keep acting like Ric Grayson doesn’t have a million and one reasons to act the way he does, when not a single character has tried giving him a reason to even WANT to go back to life as Dick Grayson.

Instead, they keep trying to just TELL him who he’s supposed to be and what he’s supposed to be doing with his life, as though the one fundamental, core character trait that’s so deeply woven into Dick Grayson’s entire being it probably could never be changed, isn’t that….

HE IS NEVER OKAY WITH OTHER PEOPLE DECIDING WHO HE IS OR WHAT CHOICES HE SHOULD BE MAKING.
