They Buy Each Others Merch Not To Be Supportive But To Clown On Their Friends

They are in love

I find it funny when anyone has a conversation about who should be the next Batman, whether that be comic dudebros or DC themselves because they always focus on the Robin boys or relatively unknowns like Tim Fox. And they'll spent hours talking about it and weighing the merits of each character when the real answer is right in front of them the whole fucking time but they just don't want to acknowledge that clearly Cassandra Cain is the only correct answer here.

I'll accept Terry McGinnis too since he's canonly been Batman in the future but like guys cmon it's Cass. It's so obviously Cass. She's the only one that really wants it and could handle it well. I know Damian wants it too, but I also think he's still young and finding himself and that desire will likely change as he gets older. Even if it doesn't, I've talked about why I think Damian should inherit Nightwing or create his own mantle before so I'm not gonna go through it all again but tl;dr is that one of Damian's major struggles is discovering who he wants to be. He's been saddled with expectations that other people have placed on him his whole life. A good conclusion to his story would be him not inheriting either the al Ghul or Wayne legacies and instead liberating himself and being the person he decides he wants to be.

But anyways this got rambley lol. I just think that Cass should get treated like an actual potential successor for the Batman mantle instead of passed over all the time because she's a girl.

ray: yeah we get it can i go back to sleep

scared

Is that plush is Dees work? Like he wanted to give his kiddo something he had in his childhood

Sort of! he found it while he was out collecting scrap. It was in pretty bad condition when he found it so he washed and fixed it up so he could give it to CJ. He figured he had turtle plushes growing up, his kid should too.

bonus comic of Dee giving CJ the plush for the first time (b/c its cute)

And yes, it's name is Purple (b/c Cass found a little purple ribbon and tied it on before Dee could give it to CJ. So CJ saw the ribbon and was like "that's a purple ribbon. Purple would be a good name. not knowing his Papa was named Purple when he was small, or that Dee had a similar naming scheme for his stuffies lol)

Also, CJ was definitely taught some sign language since Dee knew a lot of it from when he was tiny and didn't want to talk. A lot of it is altered signs for our three-fingered turtles, but it works lol : )

Thank you!

One year closer to saving them.

I have no explanation

kill 'character did nothing wrong'. nurture 'character did everything wrong and i was whooping and cheering the whole time'

thinking of casey junior picking up turtle noises from his timeline and then doing them at the turtles in the current timeline. yknow. as a treat
