ETHARI CHANGED HIS MOONSHADOW MARKINGS ON HIS ARMS???? FROM THE CIRCLES TO A SWIRL????
A) So does that mean they’re painted on?
B) if they are painted, does he change them because runaan isn’t there anymore to help him paint them??? Because like, an even circle is real difficult to draw on your shoulder without help.
C) in terms of character design, I will be interpreting this as him losing stability. His old design was perfectly symmetrical, whereas now he’s a little off kilter, literally spiraling with grief. To me, there’s a lot of meaning in his markings specifically, especially the ones under his eyes that look like permanent tear tracks 🫶
D) goddamn it now I have to relearn how to draw his markings
Crazy even for a vigilante x Most un-civilian civilian
Same trauma different trauma responses
Tim dating someone even the Bats are scared of
Buy 1 Timbern get 1 QPR with Darla Aquista free
The objective hilarity of Tim being surrounded by superpowered men in spandex punching people out without a gay awakening, but Bernard rolls up his sleeves and takes out one (1) guy and Tim's third eye is wide fucking open
One of them says something insane like "I hacked into the Pentagon once" or "My uncle Freddy taught me to drive. Now I know stuff like how to survive swerving off a bridge." and the other says some variation of "I'm so in love with you" or "Marry me" or "You wanna get a room?"
Neither of them holding back from taking potshots at each other
The fact that Tim knew Bernard before he knew Jason or Damian
MILF and DILF lover Bernard Dowd vs. Cannot-stop-collecting-parental figures Tim Drake Fight
Bruce trying to shovel-talk Bernard and him just panicking and blurting "Smash" on impulse and both Tim and Bernard dying of embarrassment while Bruce is just confused
Tim Drake, seasoned vigilante, dating a civilian who can not only whoop his ass, but will do so upon request
Bernard being the most kidnapped man in Gotham and Tim just having to deal with that every week, to the point where he just incorporates it into his schedule
The two of them being the most insane people in the room and conversing about something that seems normal to them but scares the fuck out of everyone else in the room
The two of them stargazing on the tallest gargoyle in Gotham before writing their initials into the base with Sharpie
Louis Grieve Trio being a literal love triangle (Tim was dating Steph, Darla had a thing for Tim, Bernard had a thing for Darla and also apparently for Tim, who apparently had a thing for him too. Also, Darla kissed Bernard on the cheek once.)
High school Bernard creating the wildest theories about Batman and Robin, while Tim refutes the idea that they even exist but then doing a bunch of stupid public stunts as Robin just to watch Bernard melt down the next day at school
Trying to toss popcorn into each other's mouths while watching a movie and absolutely losing their shit when they manage to land one
Both of them having to deal with a massive amount of comphet
Tim having no care for his safety or weakened immune system and Bernard still-scarred-by-Darla-dying-in-his-arms patching him up with a haunted look in his eyes that makes Tim reconsider being so reckless this time around
Best Friends Both Secretly See Each Other As the Sidekick
Both of them being skater boys but in different directions- Tim loving skateboarding and Bernard loving figure skating. They find a compromise in rollerskating and spend afternoons trying not to fall flat on their butts and pecking each other on the lips as they help each other up
"Bernard, I think I have a crush on you... What do you mean we've been dating for two months?"
"What do you mean those kisses were romantic? I thought this was a French thing? ... We were in Paris for a week, give me a break!"
Tim dating the one person Jack Drake hated with a passion
Dana laughing hysterically when Tim tells her he's going out with Bernard Dowd- yes, the same guy who used to flirt with her when he invited him over to lunch- and then fighting off laughter again when Bernard stage-whispers to her that he'd be willing to leave Tim in a heartbeat if she ever changes her mind (while Tim goes redder by the second)
Trying to summon a ghost and bickering about who will chicken out first before they get startled by a loud noise and both run out at the same time
Epic videogame battles
The Batfam gearing up to threaten Bernard because he's an ex-cultist and organ seller and being shocked when Bernard threatens them back because Bruce objectively sucks at parenting, Jason tried to murder Tim once, Damian tried to murder him more than once and listen, maybe they won't stay together forever, but Tim will always be his best friend, and anyone who messes with his friends is On Sight
"Uh, this theory seems a little crazy, even for you." "No, no, hear him out."
Bernard secretly holding a resentment toward Tim and Darla for leaving him to go be vigilantes because he never truly moved on from Louis Grieves and it hurts to know they were off doing more important things while he relived the gang war over and over again
Both Tim and Bernard being touch-starved but Tim being touch-averse (if you held him he might just fall apart) and Bernard being touchy (please hold him to keep him from falling apart)
Tim frantically trying to hide his secret identity while Bernard knows and just trolls him the whole time
Achilles and Patroclus-coded dynamic
Tim having polaroids of all his old school friends (Ives, Ariana, Danny, etc.) and then stopping by Bernard's every once in a while to run his fingertips across the edges and notice the differences in his features- not just physical aging, but how the edge of his smile used to be a lot smugger, the light in his eyes a little dimmer now
Metalhead Tim vs. ABBA enthusiast Bernard
Tim spending days poring over a case before Bernard casually walks in and looks over his shoulder at the plans. He offhandedly mentions something and then it all clicks into place for Tim, who kisses him on the lips before running out to take down the baddie
One of them going on a longwinded rant beside a conspiracy board absolutely covered in red string and photographs. Everyone in the room turns to their boyfriend with an exclamation of "Uh... Do you wanna stop him- ookaayyyy." When they find the other just staring at them with the widest heart eyes, actively adding in input every time the other stops to take a breath.
Darla finding out the two of them are dating and squawking indignantly that this better not mean that they're gonna turn her into a third wheel now before forcibly crashing all of their dates (neither of them mind because this means it'll be easier to keep her safe and keep her from dying on them again)
then, she laid before me her scales,
her sword,
and her blindfold
and told me to choose.

Fanon Tim, a mysterious super smart hacker bro on the same level of Oracle, who’s also unhinged, caffeine dependent, morally grey, negative rizz, lowkey has the highest body count of all the bats, and is a badass: and I will watch the crimson blood, leak from you neck
Canon Tim, loser skater boy who plays DnD in his spare time, nap addicted, pulls hella bitches, strict moral code with the bad habit of seeing only black and white, and is also a major badass: woah, that kid is hardcore goth

you have GOT to remember when watching the new doctor who that the question is not is this good. doctor who is only ever actually 'good' once a season at most. THE ONLY QUESTION IS is it fun, camp, and has aliens. also remember the worst doctor who showrunner is always the current doctor who showrunner. now go watch the new episodes as god intended like you're ten years old and still remember how to experience joy and whimsy.
I've been kind of obsessed with them since I watched the last season. I think Soren needed to be comforted by Corvus... They never really talked about what happened and it didn't sit well with me, so I drew this.
updated my bernard design 🤞
i saw this:
and thought it would be fun to actually work that out. so
^^^ every doctor who episode in chronological order
(pls let me know if theres any mistakes! i got most of the info from the tardis wiki so idk if its 100% accurate)
