Bruce: for the last time jason you dont get to decide who desrves to die
Jason wielder of the "that guy deserves to die" all blades, that are basically bound to his soul: whatever you say bud
*Jason reluctantly comes to Dick for help*
Dick: Let me start out by saying thank you for being so vulnerable with me.
Jason: I hate you.

Post-Crisis Jason was a stroke of genius from DC.
The first time bruce wayne is robbed in crime alley he walks away a broken child. He swears Vengeance on Crime and dedicates himself to the pursuit of Justice.
The second time bruce wayne is robbed in crime alley he sees injustice didn't start at the crime. He is a man now, aware of the world and its complexities, and his own ability to change it. He takes a weapon out of the hands of a broken child and leads him out, to find his own justice.
Its why the rewrites to villainise kid Jason just kill me. To make him actually cruel and mean and in need of redemption instead of kindness and protection. It turns poverty into a moral failing and righteousness an innate trait. The bad eggs deserved what they got. The billionaire did his best, but crime belongs in crime alley, there's no good trying to bring it out into the light and dressing it up as anything else.

itâs so funny to me that in a lot of fics after Timâs parents die and heâs adopted and moved into Wayne manor, he still just⊠owns the mansion next door. like Drake manor is just right there, fully furnished and empty, fully inherited by Tim. and he just kinda leaves it there. probably forgets he owns it. how much do you wanna bet the others absolutely do NOT forget that next door is also owned by the family?
how much do you wanna bet that at least twice a month Bruce freaks the fuck out because Damianâs been missing for two days and eventually they track him down to find that heâd just walked over to Drake manor to avoid being told to help Alfred dust and then⊠couldnât be bothered to walk back. figured that technically Drake manor could also be âhomeâ and made himself comfortable. is napping in Timâs childhood bedroom when they find him and is completely unapologetic about eating the food in his kitchen.
how much do you wanna bet that Tim gets a call from the weekly cleaner that he totally forgot was being paid from his bank account to maintain Drake manor, only to be told by a slightly terrified cleaner that she tried to go in to mop the kitchen and found a fucking crime lord in nothing but sweatpants and his helmet, ranting to an âoracleâ about some kind of âdrug drop offâ that he âneeded off Batmanâs radarâ, because Jason was too tired to motorcycle all the way back to Crime Alley after a debrief but didnât want to have to be around Bruce so he just kinda broke into Timâs old house and has been casually chilling there for the past week while he worked on a case.
how much do you wanna bet that one time Bruce grounded Tim for two weeks and Tim was so annoyed about it that to be petty he snuck out and went back to Drake manor. Bruce was so fucking mad because Tim directly ignored his orders and he couldnât even do anything about it because every time he brought it up he got loud claims of âyOU TOLD ME TO GO TO MY ROOM SO I WENT TO MY FUCKING ROOM, B, I DONâT WANNA HEAR SHIT FROM YOU-!â
how much do you wanna bet when eventually Tim canât be bothered to deal with the insurance forms and he sells Drake manor, he mentions having to hand over his keys and instantly every single batkid starts digging around in their pockets and producing two or three keys to Drake manor because over the years theyâve all just kinda. been using it. whenever. Tim had no fucking clue theyâd made keys. heâs so confused. it gets so much funnier when the next day Tim shows up to the estate agents to drop off his plastic tub of keys for the new owner and he fucking finds Jason Todd there ready to receive them.
âI make a lot of money in my line of work,â he says. âfigured it was time for a summer house.â
âyou hate being close to Bruce.â
ânot as much as Bruce hates shoddy neighbours. iâm going to make his life hell.â
âyou made me carry this box of keys for nothing.â
âyeah you can hand those back out actually, i really donât care who goes in there.â
âI hate you.â
âDonât be rude to your new neighbour.â
Working in food service as the manager is slowly making me become sexist. Like some of these women will say the most heinous shit imaginable.đ Maâam that girl is 16.
Me: The concepts of âKarensâ is inherently rooted in sexism and the inability to take female complaints seriously.
Also me, when a middle age woman asks for me: ah fuck.
People are way too harsh about Bruce being a âhypocrite.â Being a parent is hypocritical. You do things and realize theyâre bad and tell your kids not to do them. And even if you, as an adult, recognize your behavior is bad and harmful and toxic and you continue to do it, that doesnât mean you should allow or want your kids to do that behavior.
If your parent smokes and tells you not to smoke, theyâre not a hypocrite. If your parent drinks too much coffee but warns you against caffeine addiction, itâs because theyâre living with the aftermath of bad decisions. If your parent chooses a dangerous job where they could die violently and painfully but wants you to chose a different career path, itâs because they love you.
So if Bruce is advising caution and self care and limits that he wonât give himself, that doesnât make him a hypocrite. It makes him a parent.
If his kids call him a hypocrite and complain that Bruce will work 16 hour days but wonât let them, that makes them dumbass kids who will have the realization the day they have kids.
Itâs called family, my guy.
Gotham Gazette: Reporter Clark Kent spotted wearing t-shirt stating âI fucked him before he was a himboâ
Gotham Gazette a few days later: BREAKING NEWS: Red Hood has issued several death threats against Clark Kent
Very crack concept, where Jason and Tim both love hanging out each other, but they don't want to admit that or even let other know that they somehow are vulnerable yearn to spend time together again, so instead they mask it under stupid dares and bets
Tim, scrolling his phone: There is a new ice cream shop opening up soon, they have your favourite
Tim, who really wants to go there with Jason: I bet, you won't take me here.
Jason, no less exicted: Oh, you motherfucker, just waitâ
Dick: Hey, Lil Wing, do you wanna visit amusement park with me???
Jason: Yeah, sure. We should take Tim, too.
Dick, pleasantly surprised: Yeah!
Jason, screaming across the house: LITTLE BIRD. I DARE YOU TO AGREE TO GO TO THE PARK WITH ME AND DICKHEAD!
Tim, in the instant, sliding down the stairs: YOU, ASSHOLE
Dick: ...Huh.
Tim and Jason, clearing up their throats: I betâ
Damian, irritated: Can't you just suggest each other to be patrol buddies as normal people?
Tim:
Jason:
Tim: Do you want to bullyâ
Jason: Yeah. On it.
Absolutely nothing worse than finding out that you share interests with someone you hate. Has you thinking things like fuck you I'm better at enjoying star wars than you are
Duke and Jason Being Hood Kids, Part 12
âHe canât beat my ass.â
Dukeâs stretching his arms above his head and cracking his knuckles. Tim hits pause on losing his shit and briefly wonders if thatâs a bad thing.
âUmm,â he says eloquently. âThatâs it? Youâre justâŠwhy does it matter if he canâtâwhatâs happening?â
Duke continues stretching as he responds. âHe came at you crazy?â
âYeah?â
âHe called you a slur?â
âExplicitly? No, but it was definitely implied.â
Duke blinks and stares at Tim in a way that clearly screams âget it together, white boy.â Either that or âI said what I said.â The looks are too similar.
âOkay then. We ride at dawn. Or, yâknow, a time appropriate for whooping somebodyâs ass. Like now.â
Jason pokes his head into the library, reading glasses (âShut your asses up, I look good.â) perched on his nose.
âWe beating somebodyâs ass?
Tim tries asking when the hell Jason got here, but Duke cuts in. âYup. Tim went on a date with Super Clone and his daddy didnât like it. He said some -ism and -phobia words.â
The oldest of the three blinks, looks off into space for a moment, then removes his glasses and taps them against his chin. âIâm in. One question, thoughâdaddy I need kryptonite bullets for or nah?â
Timâs losing control of this situation faster than Flash can run. âWhy do you have kryptonite bullets?!â
Duke ignores him and addresses Jason. âBald ass, evil ass, about-to-be-real-unfortunate-in-the-face ass daddy.â
The two stare at each other for a moment, completely tuning out Timâs protests. Jason nods and pockets his reading glasses.
âHe canât beat my ass,â he declares. âMake sure you pack tranquilizer darts for Mercy. Last time she got lucky and broke my ribs.â
Tim wonders if he just put a hit out on Lex Luthor. And Mercy. Well, no, it sounds like theyâre just knocking her out to get to Lex. But maybeâJesus Christ, heâs missing the point again.
âGuys!â Duke and Jason finally stop plotting and look at him. âWe donât need to kick his ass. I already tanked LexCorpâs stock, siphoned money from his personal account, and made a $50 million donation to the Human Rights Campaign in his name. Itâs all good.â
Jason gives a low whistle. Duke gives a slow clap, clearly impressed.
âSavagery,â Jason whispers, a dramatic hand over his heart. âArt.â
âTruly masterful,â Duke agrees. âBut you forgot something. Three somethings, actually.â
The taller teen loops an arm around Timâs shoulders, steering him toward the cave. âFirst: Lex Luthorâs a hater who deserves a punch to the face.â
Okay, Tim canât argue with that. Itâs an objective fact.
âSecond,â Jason interjects, âaside from the homophobic language that I personally find offensive, heâs also fucked with my favorite white boy. He must pay for his crimes.â
Butâwait. Tim is shocked stupid when he realizes Jason just called him his favorite white boy. Awww.
âAnd third,â Duke sing-songs as they open the grandfather clock. âWhat he said was fighting words and he canât beat my ass.â
Tim canât argue with that logic.
