Tragic. She’s surrounded by beautiful women flirting with her and she has no idea.

Ohohoho why yes I have thoughts about this

Diana, of course, has literally no frame of reference for sexism besides maybe being a little disconcerted when she sees men. She understands it because when she enters the world of men, she experiences it. However, even when people are awful to her, she's hardly ever in real physical danger, she's an Amazonian for the gods' sake. She certainly uses her power to protect women physically, and her blunt honesty to confront assholes, but it was not part of her formative experience so she'll always be a little removed from it. she provides new perspective for Bryce and Charlie, but on a fundamental level, cannot understand their perspective, and there are some awkward conversations along the lines of "why did you let that man talk to you that way?" And Bryce and Charlie sort of glancing at each other because why did they? But also, that's just...how you respond to sexist assholes? Why doesn't Diana understand this?

Charlie, on the other hand, was raised in a small midwestern town. Though she was raised with loving and pretty open minded parents, I find it hard to believe she didn't internalize some attitudes about women or their 'place.' Not even in an inherently hateful way, but in the sort of way that assumptions about doctors being men or a single parent being a mother can become insidious. When she moves to Metropolis, I think that she be came aware of a lot of her internalized biases, they're definitely still there but she's working on it. Because of her physical strength though, like Diana, she is rarely in physical danger. She experiences more of the mental effects of sexism, like comments about her appearance or assumptions about her work and intelligence. She reacts meekly to this as Charlie Kent, but as Superwoman is able to stand up for herself more. The problem is that she doesn't always realize when she needs to.

Bryce between the three of them has received the full brunt of like. Being A Human Woman. She's hyperaware of her gender (in a way that is unusual and possibly a trauma response) and how it affects the way people perceive and treat her. Her choice to fight crime is made with the full understanding of the gender-based violence she could face if her identity was ever to be revealed. She is frequently in physical and social danger, especially as 'Brycie Wayne,' where she can't use her full abilities to fight back, and on some level she definitely resents Charlie and Diana for not having to 'worry about' the type of violence that is so often targeted at afab people.

(Sorry if you answered this before I tried looking on your TikTok and I didn’t find anything)

Have a happy Holidays :)

He’s not—

they still have an extremely rocky relationship, given Bryce is still staunchly against murder and Jason is really okay with it. And in this au, I imagine that Jason is dealing with some seriously intensified mommy issues. Given that he actually does have a somewhat positive mother figure in Bryce he tended to put her on a pedestal, and so her disapproval just hurts all the more (hence going to his ‘real’ mother which just. Ow.)

and similar to cannon, he struggles with the idea of Bryce as his mom who takes care of him, (and I imagine on some level, he sees as someone he’s supposed to protect, as her son) and Bryce as Batman who actively spends a lot of time beating him up.

So I don’t think their relationship would be that different, Bryce sees cass as her daughter, and it’s all very sweet. I think she’s a little nervous about not knowing much about raising a young girl considering she had a non traditional upbringing as well but I imagine Alfred helps her with that (nice bonding moment)

*points* that’s her DAD

But actually what are you supposed to when you’re ex military and you’re working for these rich weirdos as a butler/bodyguard and you like their daughter well enough but you don’t know her all that well but then they like DIE???? And you show up at the scene of the accident and their daughter is sitting there and you’re the only person she recognizes so she runs to you and hugs you and won’t let go and like. What do you do? That’s your kid now. That’s how it works.

Yeah I saw!

I will not be returning, weirdly enough my life and my relationship to my art has improved since deleting that app man & it’s only been like a month 😭😭😭 I think perhaps I’m not built for an audience on that scale

Anyway have a vintage Bryce/Selina doodle

Similar to cannon, they have an on again/off agin thing going on, Selina kinda hates Bryce on principle (Brycie is not a girls girl) before they find out each others identities. She doesn’t rly get Bryce’s whole thing but she respects her, and they like to talk shit at galas. which I personally don’t think would be long term bc Selina doesn’t strike me as the type to settle down.
