Seeing non-Arab writers trying to write Damian has been cringeworthy, hurtful, and hilarious for me as a Lebanese Arab woman. Just the other day, I was thinking about this. There are many examples, but one among them is the fact that Damian has actually unironically been dubbed إبن الخفشاء (Ibn El Khufashaa') which is the most edgelord teen fanfic thing. Yes, it means "Son Of The Bat." No, no one talks like that. We're Arabs, not Altmer. Jesus. Anyways, I was thinking about this and I was thinking about how we don't even use the word حفشاء / khufashaa' to refer to bats. We use the word وطواط (pronounced "wit-watt.") But witwaat is not formal language, it's dialect. While you would hear the word khufashaa' on the news, you would never use it in day-to-day speech. Similarly, you would never hear witwaat used on the news. The word witwaat is onomatopoeia, a word that is what it sounds like. (English examples include swish, rustle, crash, and whisper.) Witwaat is the sound of a bat flapping its wings. Honestly, for me, the imagery is adorable. So, I have a headcanon that in the League, the ninjas referred to Baby Damian as El-Witwaat. Jason started it. "Ibn El Khufashaa'," what the hell? This kid was his baby brother. Soon, all the ninjas were referring to Damian as El-Witwaat. Eventually, someone slipped and accidentally called him that in front of Raging-Pregnant-Hormones Talia. The whole room was still, everyone sucking in their breath, waiting for the shoe to drop, and... she loved it! She thought it was sooo CUTE! And thus, it caught on and became his affectionate childhood nickname from when he was in the League. The only one who doesn't call him Witwaat was his self-important tightass gRaAndfAtHEr. Honestly, it kind of slaps as a gangster name, too. I mean, El Chapo means "shorty." Witwaat has the right amount of casual cuteness to be intimidating. Of course, Damian, himself, doesn't see this, and in his attempts to be taken Seriously goes from loving it when he was little to hating it and refusing to respond to it. Except that Jason upon his return to Gotham had reintroduced the nickname and the Batfam loves it! And Bruce, too, eventually calls Damian that every once in a while. Hey, that's his boy. And he couldn't be more proud. And you know what? Maybe Damian doesn't think it's so bad after all. ("It's tolerable.")

at this point I should start telling people to send me random peoples characters so I feel pressured to do it/silly

And sometimes random characters are very fun to draw

Yeah they are!!!

I'm not saying this in a vying-for-attention way but instead in an observational way: I used to get way way more asks in like 2015, even with a fraction of my follower count. I wonder if it's due to the homogenization of social media sites? There's a lot more of this divide between "content creator" and "consumer" instead of just a bunch of peer blogs who would talk to each other. "Asks" aren't really a thing on twitter, are they? And as I understand it, the closest thing to an "ask" on instagram or tiktok would be a creator screenshotting some comment and responding to it in a new reel or video or whatever those content mediums are. Are asks just too tumblr-specific? Is that aspect of the site culture dying out as more and more people converge to using all their social media sites in the same way?

but now that we do have better blocking, we should try to revive it.
