what if instead of cassandra cain it was cassandra pain and everything was the same
what if instead of cassandra cain she was cassandra wayne and they actually acknowledged she's bruce's kid
*sees a beloved mutual in the notes* hi honey

this is hands down my favourite Cass quote and imo people at times take it too literally. "i don't kill but i don't lose" doesn't mean she is physically incapable of losing a fight or she's Just That Skilled it means if Cass really wants to win she will do whatever it takes short of killing to come out on top. she will fight till her legs give out till her body breaks down till the bitter end and then she will get up and keep fighting. "i don't kill but i don't lose" isn't a mere statement of fact, it encapsulates the powerful "do or die" mentality she brings to every single fight. fight like you're dying. fight to win. do anything but kill.
See, while I agree that Steph would understand Jason... Maybe even agree with a choice here and there... I can't help but feel like she'd resent him. Resent his attitude, he's Bruce's son and it's obvious. Nobody has suffered like he, and nobody can understand him. He's so hard done by and he has to be the way he is. It's all the talk of Bruce, with a half baked plan to fix the city's current issues and create brand new ones.
And Bruce bends BACKWARDS for this motherfucker. Looking the other way and giving a million chances. Stephanie knows that if she did just one thing like Jason does on the daily, she'd be Bruce's top target. If she had came back from Africa and tried to kill him, to kill OTHER sidekicks, Bruce would have wasted nothing trying to take her down.
Jason wasn't the one failed by Bruce, Jason wasn't the one that had to fake his death to get away. Jason wasn't the one hurt by Bruce.
Stephanie faked her death. Stephanie died. Stephanie saw her best friend failed time and time again by the boys.
Jason gets no sympathy from Stephanie. He's just another boy who can't control his emotions. He's another man with a gun who thinks he's had the hardest go of it, not knowing just how much worse others, how much worse women, have it.
All Jason is to Stephanie is proof of Bruce's hatred of her, proof of his bias. A boy spoiled by privilege. She would not see the boy from Crime Alley, she'd see the boy from Wayne Manor.
The notes are broken. This is what tumblr is all about apparently.
I think this perfectly shows what two thirds of Billy Batson-centric fanfics are

Tgis conclides my wonderful fanfiction, I hope you enjoured
Scenario where Mr. Mind forgets his voice amplifier and when he stands in front of Billy about to monologue, Billy doesn’t notice him and just steps on Mr. Mind, killing him.
So like a few months later, Billy’s just wondering if Mr. Mind retired cause he hasn’t shown up recently.
Do you think that, if asked, Captain Marvel would tell the JL that “all the gods in my head are either screaming at each other about me or screaming at me to murder somebody to set an example” or do you think he just wouldn’t tell the truth?
She/HerAutistic, queer, and (according to all the unfinished fics in my docs) an aspiring fanfic author!
