Daddy issues: ???
Desperate need for acceptance and approval: check.
Possible masochistic tendencies: check.
Sexually forward when pursuing someone: double check.
Seems like a lot of material here. What do you think?

Bette was always forward about what she liked so why not?
Just not with that ass who nightwing
Dick (or his writers) choose the strangest times to have him channel Bruce. He of all people should know it's not so easy as just putting down the cape or just turning off that desire to make a difference. He's been trying to escape Batman's shadow his entire adult life and has never considered living another way seriously. I like Nightwing and I hate it when they write him as an butthole for no good reason.
He used to be such a sweet kid.
He's generally 'the nice Bat' even now, it's just some writers think he should channel Bruce at odd times, instead of just against villains or making a point in arguments. He's needlessly an butthole there with Bette purely because the writer needed someone to be, and she doesn't have the same bond with Batman who is more the type to condescend like that.
I guess when she was rebooted as a Titans character, her history as Bat-Girl was retconned. Otherwise I would have expected a more active interest from Bruce, even if just to occasionally discourage her
Nah he could still be a jerk even back then.
Maybe Nightwing should just embrace being Batman not trying to run from it
DickBats genuinely works because he isn't (modern) Bruce. He reminds me of Batman back when he was allowed to smile on occasion and make mistakes without being incompetent.
A Bette thread? Nice.
>Garter
HNNNG!!!
Bette and Jason should team-up both red costumes
She's Beast Boy's mistresssecondary wife.
>Ywn have someone like Bette in your life
Why live?! 🙁
More like a “work wife.”
perhaps "Side-work wife" given his work is usually with the Titans alongside Raven(who is his main wife, of course)
This was when Beast Boy wasn’t on the current team and before he ever got with Raven.
everything is canon now, so Raven and Beast Boy double-team Bette
Hot.
I don’t know, Bette has already been pretty clear as to where she stands with Gar.
Well. I guess we can take Bestiality off the list.
Remember she fricked the shit out of Hawk from Hawk and Dove.
For a professional tennis player, she sure was grinding his dick in public.
>"Quit, b***h, because I'm an authority on who can be a vigilante in a world filled with them, apparently
What obnoxiously shoehorned drama. No wonder people hate Dick; he's written like a c**t.
Wonder if Dick will get to do this again, or if it would be too misogynistic for moden DC.
>or if it would be too misogynistic for moden DC.
Eh, Dick’s comments on the original page are dumb but not misogynistic unit of themselves. Besides, Bette ends up defying him anyways so the Twitter crowd would probably eat it up.
Ugh. The twitter crowd would ruin her.
There was a similar thing with Dick hating on cass after her mindcontrol years. Its funny because people like to think of Dick as being the wholesome big brother type and loving but usually he's a bit of an butthole unless he's with certain characters like Babs or Tim.
He's also got a bit of a jealous streak to him.
It's okay for Dick to have character flaws and blindspots. "You're acting just like Bruce" is something that recurs somewhat frequently with Dick, usually outside his solo.
Bette doesn't respect Kate, she just sticks around because Kate putting on the bat symbol was the first time Bette had ever seen Kate sober for more than 24 hours straight and she's got to make sure Kate doesn't fall off the wagon.
>and she's got to make sure Kate doesn't fall off the wagon.
>Bette returns home for the summer
>Kate! Are you home? I brought my cosutume, let's go bust some heads or some...thing.
>Bette trails off when she sees a disheveled Kate face down on the carpet trying to lap up a spilled bottle of wine from the fibers
>Oh, hell.
>Renee, it's Bette. Yeah, it happened again. No, merlot out of a throw rug this time.
>Kate's phone lights up. It's a Bat emblem on the screen.
>Renee, gotta go, call you back, bye! *boop
>Bette picks up the phone, then gently lifts Kate's head.
>Kate, you got a Bat text! You have to answer your phone!
>Don wanna! Gedouta here!
>The phone scans Kate'a face and unlocks.
>Ohmigod!
>Bette drops Kate's head.
>...owww...
>Sorry Kate! Now, let's see what Batman wants...
>Kate's ringtone
Bette isn't really sure if she should laugh or cry when she hears it.
Plebe should stay in school and make friends with pretty girls to bring home on holidays.
The last thing Bette needs is to be more like Kate.
All Batgirls should be more like Kate. She's a rolemodel.
I still say she only respects Kate because of the bat on her chest.
That image just makes me want to see a modern retelling of that story.
Catwoman can get an anime movie. Why not Bette and Kathy?
I mean, Catwoman is by far a more recognizable and popular character.
Maybe in a few years after the stink of the CW Batwoman fades away.
Even then they’ll probably still focus on Kate, though at least that would still Bette a chance.
>CW Batwoman
I still can't believe what a shitshow that was.
>wake up in a strange bed
>vision blurry, the room is likely a girl's. Its neat and organized with simple, cute decorations
>Photos of a blonde girl and a surly looking redhead visible
>Trophies..look like tennis trophies?
>Hi anon!
>you turn around..a cheerful looking blonde smiling at you
>Did you sleep well? You looked like you did! I mean I wouldn't notice because I was totally sleeping too and only just woke up like, 5 minutes ago!
>Her eyes look tired. Blue eyes looking straight at you, never breaking contact
>Last night was amazing anon. I was good right? I mean, you were great,but I just need to know if you liked it maybe?
>her hands lightly brush against yours.
>God anon..you're hung like a horse. And I'd know! um, I mean because I used to ride horses. On their back I mean. They weren't laying on their back, I was on their back...I wasn't looking at horse dicks
>she bites her lip, sweat forming on her forehead. She grabs your hand tighter
>Um, nevermind anon. but um, you don't regret this? I was good enough right?
>You awkwardly try to assure her and defuse her panicky state. Your head aches, you can vaguely remember drinking and you can't help hold your head for a moment
>Oh ! you must be hungover, you poor thing..I'll take care of you. I'll make you a prairie oyster.
>Fully naked, she gets put of bed, makes her way to the kitchen area of the small apartment, puts on a red apron as she puts together an egg for a prairie oyster, and scrambles a few eggs in a pan
>I used to make these for my cousin all the time. She used to be a heavy drinker, let me tell you. One time I found her on a rooftop trying to get into her ex's place..
>She comes back with a plate of scrambled eggs and a prairie oyster
>Is this ok anon? this should help clear your head. I'll get you an aspirin if you like too.
>It dawns at you you have no idea what her name is, but she knows yours. Your clothes aren't in the bed room as you try to look around, her blue eyes following your gaze.
She's a fit athletic blonde. All she would have to do is ask.
The best part of any Batgirl thread are the greentexts. This one is no exception.
>It dawns at you you have no idea what her name is
Surreptitiously steal a glance at the trophies while drinking the prairie oyster. Now, I do.
...
Who hides a man's pants?
A stalker that has roofied you.
>It dawns at you you have no idea what her name is.
Oh how the turntables.
>The girl's name is Bette Kane judging by the tennis trophies
>You find your clothes in Bette's closet slumped with her clothes
>Maybe she was going to wash them? But you could have sworn that these clothes were fresh, smelling it's still fresh.
>Her eyes following you as you slowly get dressed
>Once you do get dressed there's this awkward silence between you two, thinking the words to say
>"Not dizzy after taking what my cousin usually drinks you're strong Anon"
>It suddenly came to you that you vaguely remember of just taking one drink, then a blur.
>You excuse yourself by thinking up a believable lie
>"You'll call back right, Anon? Here's my contacts"
>She grabs your arm, dragging to a table telling you to eat up while she grabs something.
>Holy shit, this too much fricking contact options in a fricking booklet.
>After eating, her eyes staring at you all the time, you politely leave but not without the girl hugging you, saying you should call back immediately in a whisper that sounded like desperation and sadness.
>It's been two days, and you haven't contacted her. Realizing that you really shouldn't be sticking your dick in crazy.
>Maybe it was just a one night stand thing, surely that girl could find another guy.
>As you turn around a corner and stopped for a while
>You could have sworn you saw that Bette girl waving at you
>Must be the Gotham city atmosphere, you shrug it off and head off back to your apartment.
>"Anon! You haven't called in like days!"
>That crazy Bette girl is standing outside your apartment building
>"There's a tennis tournament wanna go and see?"
>She holds out tickets as you can see your eyes twitching, and holding your hand to accept them.
>You're thinking now how to let down a crazy obsessed Gothamite
>>She holds out tickets as you can see your eyes twitching, and holding your hand to accept them
She she wearing her pleated tennis skirt? I'd do it.
>thinking now how to let down a crazy obsessed Gothamite
Kek. That sounds like an anime title. Heck, that entire greentext sounds like it could be an anime or something.
What starts as a comedy ecchi about a yandere superheroine being obsessively clingy about a guy slowly morphs into an action romance as he slowly learns about her struggles and self-esteem issues due to all the other heroes constantly dismissing her.
I’d legitimately be down to watch that. Sounds like an amazing and heart-tugging premise.
Why is everyone always telling Bette to quit being a hero?
It's not like she was fighting crime since she was a little girl or anything, right?
Why does Bette get so much less attention than the other Batgirls?
She had like 10 appearances pre-Crisis.
She needs out of West Point and back in the suit, pronto.
Are we going though the psychologicial analysis of all the Batgirls now?
"Psychosexual". And why not?
Maybe? I’ve only seen one other for Cassandra so far.
The sad part is that Bette had to listen to that sort of tear-down a second time in her life.
>What the frick, Kate? I've been a superhero since I was in high school. You've been doing this less than 3 years and have already been stabbed in the heart, had your neck snapped, and gotten date raped by a vampire.
