One of Red Hood's Goons: Hey boss, why do you wear that helmet all the time? Don't you eat?
Jason, deciding he us going to fuck with this man so hard: You really want to know?
The goon, looking around and feeling vaugely threatened: do I?
Jason, removing his helmet: take a good look
The goon, realizing his boss is some fucking teenager: no fucking way. Why did you show me this?
Jason leans in close to the goon: because nobody will believe you
I like to imagine Duke is the only one who knows Jason’s magic, because he can literally see it on him. The swords are floating in his back or ties to his arms or some such. He doesn’t bring it up, not his business, until one day they’re in a fight and things are looking dicy. Jason’s injured and punches aren’t doing anything, so duke just… picks up one of the swords.
Cue horror and confusion from everyone including Jason.
after the whole reconciliation with jason thing, dick quickly learns that he just CANNOT say certain things around him anymore, ex:
"god it would make things so much easier if _____ just died"
(2 hours later jason comes back and drops an inconspicuous "i don't think _____ will cause you trouble anymore)
or
"i wish someone would knock some sense into _____"
dick, patrolling later on realises, that particular person hasn't caused any trouble around the city for a few days, and asks jason about it, to which he gets a:
"oh i got some goons to go issue him a 'warning'."
i love when characters don't get to die
that feeling when you get a brand new story idea, but it literally has no plot yet, just vibes>>
if a supervillain said "you wont kill me thatd make you just like me" i would simply say "no it wouldnt id be saving millions of people" and the villain would say "but youd be dooming yourself. could you really live knowing youre a killer" and id say "well id certainly have trouble. ill probably be very sad about it. definitely a lot to unpack" and theyd say "so you wont do it" and id say "oh no im still gonna" and theyd say "what" and id say "youre a supervillain responsible for countless deaths and yet here you are desperately trying to bargain for your life. you want to live. which means you can easily live with yourself after being responsible for countless deaths. i, on the other hand, will at the very least have tremendous difficulty with even killing just one person and at worst might just jump out a window right after i do it. the very nature of this whole conversation about whether we are the same has proven to me we are very much not the same and i am certain killing you to save millions is the morally correct decision here" and theyd say "what" and id say "get killed idiot"
Me today
