Kon: Hey Tim,
Tim: Yes?
Kon: Can a person breathe inside a washing machine while it’s on?
Tim:
Tim: Where’s Bart?
Bart: What’s sexting?
Wally: I'm not having this conversation with you.
I feel like the thing a lot of people get wrong about Bart Allen is that he’s not stupid, he’s not naïve, he’s just, well, impulsive. Like he’s the kind of guy to leap before he looks, not because he doesn’t know he’s supposed to look or because he doesn’t want to look, but because he gets himself so caught up in the act of leaping that he totally forgets to look entirely. And this isn’t a bad thing! Sure it sometimes gets him into trouble, but acting on his base instincts has saved him a ton of times.
I’d tell them you said that, but they really don’t need that kind of ego boost
DC as actual things my friends have said: Part 2

Dick: Woah! What’s with the face?
Jason: It’s Bruce. He never leaves me alone! I swear he’s so far up my ass I can feel him in my ovaries
Dick: You don’t have ovaries?
Jason: Exactly

Tim:
~at 3 in the morning~
Tim: Did you know that only 5% of the ocean has been uncovered? For all we know, there could wild JoJo Siwas in the ocean
Kon: And she attacks your boat and violently humps you
Bart: Or there could be glowing squids! That’d be pretty cool
Cassie: Have any of you ever heard of inside thoughts??
~
Tim: Why are you crying!? What’s wrong?!?
A very pregnant Stephanie: Sometimes when my eyes get lonely I cry because they’re friends with my tears :(
Tim:
i haven’t even touched the group chat yet, y’all aren’t ready for that one

DC characters as actual things my family has said: Part 2
~at a very fancy restaurant~
Bart: Woah there’s a lot of French on this menu, oh! Speaking of French guess what I learned on Duolingo today
Cassie: What’d you learn?
Bart: When they say ‘cat’ in French they pronounce it ‘shat’! You know like sat but with an ‘sh’
Tim: Bart please stop talking
Bart: No it’s true! They say ‘shat’! S-H-A-T. Like if Kon was a French cat I’d say “Look there’s the shat right there!”- why are you laughing
Kon: Bart, um do you know what shat means in English? Come here (whispers for a moment in his ear)
Bart: IT MEANS SHIT?? WHY DIDN’T YOU TELL ME!
Bart: oh sorry
Cassie: just kill me now
Oh my boy I hate how much I love him he was meant to be my least favourite but he’s clawed himself tooth and nail into my heart
Bruce, knowing Tim went out as RR when he was meant to be benched: do you have something to tell me, chum?
Tim, half asleep and drooling in his tea: sometimes Cassie and Kon make me curl into a ball and then use me as a baseball to play catch with while Bart stands in the middle and tries to catch me first.
Bruce: ….
Bruce: what.
Tim: they call me ‘piggy in the middle’
Bruce: …
Tim: somehow Bart never catches me but I think it’s only because he’s laughing so much.
Bruce, completely forgetting about Tim patrolling: I… I don’t know what to do with this information.
Thadd should use the name Hermes after Inertia.
Hear me out !
First, I can't belive there is no speedster names after the swiftest of the Gods of Olympus !! I'm not sure if he's exactly the god of speed, but he's close enought anyway !
Second, like many other people, I think Bart should become Mercury instead of Flash, and Mercury is also known as ???? Hermes !! So if Thadd was the inertia and Bart the impulse, when Bart becomes Mercury Thadd should become Hermes ! So it's stay in the theme !
Third, I like Thadd juste having is own identity as a hero and not juste take over the name of an other speedster.(even if it keeps a link with Barts name)
Fourth, it's just funny ! Like, Mercury is some kind of copy of Hermes, when Thadd is what we can call a copy of Bart ! I like the irony !
Fifth, because no speedster have use this name yet there is no connotation nor legacy behind it, so that allow Thadd to be who he wants ! A hero, a vilain, a anti-hero, anything he wants ! And even the non-heroic options make sens with the name Hermes 'cause the guy's also the god of thieves !
Yeah, I know Hermes is alredy a character in the comics, but he's not really important and he's not considered a speedster, plus it wouldn't be the first time two entirely different characters share a name.
Also, why Thadd could decide to change his name ? Well, it could just be because Bart change his so Thadd want to do the same, or, in a redemption scenario, Inertia could be a bad remember about all the bad Thadd has done.
Anyway, I had this idea after I hadn't sleep for like 48 hours so it's may not really make sense but I like it !
It's gremlins time !

So, apparently, my way to deal with art block is by drawing this two gremlins ! I'm more than okay with that !
Process
Family bonding !

So yeah, my boyfriend randomly asked me how I thought Thadd would react if Max told him he was proud of him, so I drew this to show him!
The Max and Bart hug is just 'cause I was feeling down and drawing Bart is my cure !
Part 2 of random Flashfam headcanons !
- When someone points out the weird color of Bart's eyes, they just invents a stupid story each time to explain it ("this is what happens when you become blind and then regain your sight" "I am half dragon" "a wizard cast a spell on me" "it's a sign of higher intelligence"...)
- Bart's hair make them look taller than Thadd, and he don't like it.
- Wally has a dinosaurs phase when he was a kid.
- Literally every speedster passed Jay and Joan off as their grandparents to other people. (Barry: Yes Jay is my grandfather. Yes he is also my nephew's and grandchild's. No none of this is weird.)
- All speedsters are somewhat capable of cooking.
- It remains to be seen if their cooking is really edible for non-speedsters...
- The best way to woo a speedster is to offer him food.
- A speedster only offers food to people tey likes.
- Bart learned to knit to keep their hands busy and started giving away what they knit for Christmas and birthdays.
- They still have problems with sizes. But everyone loves the effort. (Max wears his every Christmas)
- Because of their metabolism, all speedsters give off a lot of heat and resist the cold very easily (being able to wear t-shirts even below 5°C) So, for many, speedster = radiator.
- Thadd tricks Bart into doing his chores for him.
- Despite being super smart 'cause he was basically raised on a giant computer, Thadd tends to believe a little bit of everything he reads on the internet.
- Bart likes to make fun of conspiracy theories (even if he himself is convinced that the center of the earth is made of nougat.)
Was bored, so have some random Flashfam headcanons !
- Barry collects superhero merchs. At first it was Wally who gift him a Flash mug for his birthday and now the guy continues to buy anything he sees with a JL member logo on it.
- Barry has entirely decorated his guest room with said objects derived from superheroes. Everything from the linens, to the clock radio, to the rug, to the desk lamp and to the furniture are hero or league branded.
- Barry's dizzy.
- Wally likes to call Green Arrow his favorite hero when he's mad at Barry.
- Bart doesn't understand the concept of "gendered" clothing. (when they tries to act "normal" they just uses clichés they saw on TV)
- Bart likes to do/do someone's nails to relax/help them focus.
- Bart often plays with something to occupy their hands.
- Bart's nonbinary
- Bart once blurted out that he was part of Young Justice, so now everyone at his school thinks they're part of a superhero themed band. (Cassi, Tim and Kon were playing along at joke but they ended up really playing music when they're bored)
- Barry has a certain relationship of trust with his Rogues.
- Wally has movie nights with them.
I think that enough for one post, I may post a part 2 later !

Was in a bad mood, so I drew Bart eating pizza in a speedster way !
Identy crisis Inertia

I need an identity crisis arc for Thadd! Like, the kid's whole existence has been based on him being someone else!! How can he find out who he is, when he only learned to be Bart??
I swear, one day I will become a comic author for DC comics and I will wright a solo comics just for Thadd !

Thad' needs his redemption arc ! Mercury Falling literally made me cry(twice !!!) ! This boy just needs to be loved :'( Let him get the love he deserves
Yeah yeah, I recently reread Impulse 1995 and got a little emotional again about the Inertia arc during Mercury Falling :') I love this little grimelin
It was also a lot of fun to draw this family portrait ! They're all very cute together :3
I wasn't supposed to draw that, but my brain say I had to, so here it is ! It's a little scrappy, but like I said, I wasn't supposed to draw that.
But it was fun !
Someone: So, are you a "he" or a "she"?
Bart: I'm a "they" !
Someone: But are you a boy or a girl ?
Bart: I'm a speedster !
Someone: No, what's in your pants ?!
Bart ripping their pants: Another pants !!
Someone: So, are you a "he" or a "she"?
Bart: I'm a "they" !
Someone: But are you a boy or a girl ?
Bart: I'm a speedster !
Someone: No, what's in your pants ?!
Bart ripping their pants: Another pants !!
Someone: Aww, Bart is so cute !!
Thad: No they're not.
Someone: Heyy ! That rude !
Thad: We have the same face. And I. AM. NOT. CUTE.
Also Thad
Thad to Bart: u r ugly
Bart: ??? Didn't you just say we have the same faces?
I started the Impulse comics very late(26 years late), but my god how much I love these two ! I didn't even know I could like two characters and their relationship so much !
Bart: I dumped a bunch of butter and cinnamon and sugar onto bread then toasted it and ate giant Cinnamon Toast Crunch.
Bart: Tim almost set off the smoke alarm tho when his fell into the bottom of the toaster and we couldn't get it out lmao!
