I need her biblically
Dick: I think that I might have some mild trauma.
Batfam: you THINK?!?
Justice League and Young Justice: MIGHT have?!?
Titans: MILD?!?!?
I dont think he wants help Bruce…
I always find it funny when people say that it’s unfair how Bruce let Dick get away with killing the Joker but Jason can’t get away with murder. The difference is Dick snapped, killed the Joker and immediately felt guilty, meanwhile Jason Todd went on a murder spree and collected a duffle bag filled with severed heads, the two aren’t really comparable.
I don't understand why so many fanfic authors write about Roy hating Dick or no longer trusting Dick.
Honestly, I think it's just an attempt to make Jason and Roy work better romantically. I don't care what people ship, but I generally avoid jayroy content for the same reason I avoided destiel. Jayroy centric content often completely ignores or mischaracterizes both Jason and Roy's relationship with Dick and, in doing so, mischaracterizes Dick.
I could be forgetting something from the comics, but from what I've seen, Roy has never hated Dick. He's been really pissed with Dick and has disagreed with Dick's methods, but he's never hated or fully stopped trusting Dick. That's also true for how Dick feels about Roy, but that's for another post.
My point is, even when their relationship was at its most unstable, Roy would still show up if Dick needed him. Roy wouldn't hesitate to trust Dick in the field. Sure, he'd challenge Dick's choices when he felt it was necessary, but never because he didn't trust him. Whenever he challenged Dick, he did so because he was either worried about Dick's mental state or worried about Dick's safety. So, even at their worst, Roy has never stopped loving Dick.
Funniest fandoms are where the fans are like, "I'm obsessed with this. I don't recommend it even slightly."
Headcanon that Jason is secretly a huge fan of rom-coms, while Dick loves horror movies.
I present to you: Karaoke night with the Batfamily
Steph drags Cass to do a duet of “Take on Me” Steph is jumping around on stage out of breath while Cass surprisingly demolishes that high note
Dick blackmails convinces Jason to do a duet of “Bring me to life” by Evanescence where they spend the entire song duration competing with each other, both absolutely devouring the song. They’ll pretend like they didn’t just perform the most iconic duet but Steph and Babs have it on video. (They end up winning best performance, tied with Duke’s cover of Shut up and Dance)
Tim tries to get out of singing but Stephanie somehow forces him into performing “I want it that way” by the Backstreet Boys. He pretends to be unenthused at first but gets way too into it and eventually he ends up hogging the mic for half the night
Duke is the ultimate hype man, and when he isn’t hyping people up he’s singing the FUNNEST songs. His cover of Shut up and Dance? The entire family was cheering him on, even Damian couldn’t pretend that Duke didn’t just kill that song. (He ends up tied with Jason and Dick for best performance)
Neither of them can really sing and end up performing a competitive duet of Smooth Criminal which was extremely off key . They had a blast but they would never admit it.
Damian gets really competitive with Tim and he and Tim end up having a singing contest. Remember how I said Tim ends up hogging the mic? Well whenever Tim isn’t hogging the mic, Damian is trying to prove how his superior karaoke skills surpass Tim
Bruce was enjoying himself but then Dick decided to do a beautiful cover of Slipping Through my Fingers by ABBA and no Bruce wasn’t crying! He just had something in his eye! He then decided to leave early in order to work on a case
Jason sings Staying Alive for irony purposes because he would never miss the opportunity to make a death joke!
Steph, Cass, Babs and Duke perform the frattiest rendition of Boyfriend by Big Time Rush
Babs and Dick scream Mr. Brightside at the top of their lungs, which frustrates everyone because they both can fucking sing.
Alfred refuses to sing at first but after the entire family insists he sings “My way” by Frank Sinatra and everyone’s jaw dropped.
