Just. Everything.

just. Everything.

Prompt:

Tim is the first to find out the Red Hood’s identity and from then on sticks to Jason during patrol like glue (much to Jason’s chagrin, dammit, it would feel wrong to beat up Robin when he’s that starry eyed…)

Cue: PANIC from the rest of the Batfamily, who still think Hood is a forty-something year old crime lord and now assume they’re dating.

thinking about werewolves and the concept of becoming a monster and discovering that something savage and uncontrollable exists within you and the potential that has to be a liberating narrative about growth and change and courage rather than a story about controlling and concealing it

I always have to smile at myself when I read a fanfic in which Bruce immediately catches Jason after he hits with his tire iron.

I get why fanfic writers do it, so they can move the plot along without having to write the chase after Jason or the scene when they do talk in the condemned building that Jason sleeps in. I get it.

But I always have to think about canon then.

Because not only did Jason manage to run away from Batman.

He also called him a 'big boob'.

I repeat. He gets caught jacking the tires. Tries to deny it. Hits Batman with a tire iron, runs away and insults him.

This 12-year old did something that every rogue would never even dream of.

THE TAGS ARE SO FUNNY

yeah Bruce barely appears in this game but christ when he does its so worth it 

Do you ever think about Alfred?

Do you ever think about the way that he's a safe place for almost the entire batfam, almost not everyone because he went along with phycological torture of Tim on his birthday?

Do you ever think about how Tim has no one he knows for certain he can trust, because everyone sides with Bruce?

Do you ever think about how if Alfred had told Jason and/or Damian not to hurt Tim, they probably would have listened?

Do you ever think about how half the reason Tim became Robin was because Alfred agreed, but if he had disagreed, has not given Tim the suit, Batman would have turned Tim away? Do you ever think about how the Robin's are partly Alfred fault, or how if Alfred told Bruce he was going to far, he may well have listened?

Do you ever think about how much control and influence Alfred has, and how much harm he causes with the decisions he makes?

Do you ever think about Alfred, and Tim?

Do not let the antishippers find the Got or House of the Dragon fandom cause they'll cry

Or Labyrinth, or Flowers in the Attic, or any one of Stephen King's books. It's almost as if the wider public understands that fiction can be both fucked up and entertaining without the need for a moral lesson following after, or that it's an indictment that you're going to partake in the things you read about.

Antis are so far removed from reality, and they have to remain that way in order to not have their beliefs constantly challenged and torn apart.
