I can’t believe you condone murder, I can’t believe you’re pro murber, oh my fucking God don'ttalk to me when ou literally kill people, freak. I’m calling the cops, what the fuck, I’m shaking and crying.
Can you imagine Damian going through his puberty voice change while trying to intimidate villains?
Damian, in his new Manly Voice: Surrender or suffer.
Condiment King: Never! *sprays soy sauce at Bruce*
Damian: You coward. You fiend. How d—*voice crack, suddenly sounds like Minnie Mouse* —dArE yOU—
Condiment King:
Damian:
Bruce:
Tim: LOL
Condiment King, overcome with secondhand embarrassment: You know what, I’m gonna head home
I’m just thinking about how the first line a civilian says to Batman in the movie is “please don’t hurt me”. How his first monologue is about how the criminals of the city look up and see that light and it strikes fear, but he strikes fear into the people he says he protects as well and the people he fights.
I’m just THINKING about how the LAST INTERACTION HE HAS WITH A CIVILIAN is her holding onto him, terrified to let go, because he didn’t just beat up the people who hurt her, he carried her out of that building and to safety. She isn’t afraid he’s going to hurt her.
IM JUST THINKING ABOUT HOW THE SUN IS RISING BEHIND HIM AS HE CARRIES HER.
i see you ‘Battinson adopts a Sunshine Child’ and raise you ‘Battinson adopts a child who’s just as much of a traumatised emo drama queen as him but also like 9′
i literally will not ever stop talking about the direct parallels between romeo and juliet, and hamlet and horatio. two endings that were almost exactly the same with hamlet dying and horatio planning to kill himself. EXACTLY LIKE ROMEO AND JULIET. yet one was interpreted as romantic and one was not?? come on.
wait... let them cook
I don’t normally go here, but I do know Jason is a massive literature nerd. And he is fairly intelligent, and has deductive training.
What I’m saying is, how does he not eventually realize everyone’s lives run on tvtropes pages?
This is based on a post I made a month ago basically saying what if Jason came back to Gotham but didn't bother with Bruce and kept his identity a secret from the bats until Damian shows up and reveals Jason's not dead but not knowing either that Jason is red hood when they go looking for Jason Red Hood decides to fuck with them for the laughs

grief stays stuck for the time it dictates, it controls you. Of course Jason wouldn't forgive Bruce so easily. Even when he did forgive him, he continued not to acknowledge it, act as if it wasn't a big deal he was getting close again, more open to hear another version.
I think it's sweet how he tries to fight it, but we all know that kid in the robin suit loved his dad, and he never stopped, through death and all.
sometimes i think jason’s anger gets too oversimplified as just anger and so rarely do i see it acknowledged that it is absolutely also grief, just not in the "standard" way
on top of that jason would’ve been mad at bruce no matter what he did. because grief is illogical in the things it makes us think and feel. i’ve loved pretty much every batfam fic i’ve ever read but sometimes i feel like we write jason as too easily swayed by being told about batman’s downward spiral after his death. because explain all you want, grief is stubborn and grief is not something you can just… convince away.
is this me being a fucking nerd about psychology and wanting to see more jason content that actually explores the fact that anger is only one component of his grief? maybe. none of your business go away im at a restaurant >:(
