BruSteph is kinda like when your mistress stops swinging by, but her husband works nearby and one of your wives is dead and the other isn't giving you all of her attention because she's got other friends is out of town a lot so you're just like, "Well I mean... when in Rome ig...." but your mistress's husband is honestly kinda cute and you feel bad, but every time you look at his wedding ring it just reminds you of his wife (your mistress) and eventually (despite the fact you transferred him to your department) yiu kinda just fire the guy and beg your mistress to come back and she's just like, awwww, shucks. And then your mistress's husband fucking DIES because you're doing shit, but your mistress is pretty cool with you. Also your dead wife is back and THAT'S RIGHT, JAYSTEPH TIME. NOW YOUR MISTRESS'S DEAD HUSBAND IS DATING YOUR DEAD WIFE. THEY ARE BANGING ON TOP OF YOUR (bat) COMPUTER. Your mistress seems jealous.
anon.... imma be so honest with u 😭😭 i got lost on which who is who I CANT IM SORRY like this great and all but idk who's the mistress and who is the husband and the wife AAAAA my dumbass couldn't keep up.. pls feel free to clarify again aaaaa
I think the mistress is supposed to be Tim here xD so Steph is the mistress' husband, Jason isn't the dead wife and Dick is the wife who's not giving Bruce enough attention
a quick comparison of the top batcest slash pairings on archive of our own by what percentage of works under each tag features that pairing as the sole ship for both characters involved.
note: the number of otp works is the amount under the "character a/character b" tag where the sole romantic pairing for both characters is each other. this was not done using the otp:true search function in order to avoid filtering out works containing unrelated pairing tags (i.e., platonic pairings or romantic pairings unrelated to either character). as this was done manually using a list of the top romantic pairings for each character, the number of otp works in actuality may be slightly smaller than depicted, but the margin of error is negligible.
top batslash ships by percentage of otp works:
1.) jason todd/tim drake (84.48%)
2.) dick grayson/jason todd (84.32%)
3.) bruce wayne/dick grayson (77.84%)
4.) tim drake/damian wayne (73.14%)
5.) bruce wayne/jason todd (71.54%)
6.) dick grayson/damian wayne (66.33%)
7.) jason todd/damian wayne (65.74%)
8.) dick grayson/tim drake (60.35%)
9.) bruce wayne/tim drake (48.91%)
10.) bruce wayne/damian wayne (47.17%)
a large portion of multiship works in batslash pairings is overlap between one another, which obviously impacts the smaller pairing tags much more significantly. for bruce/tim and bruce/damian, the two lowest ships by both total works as well as otp works, this is over half of the total works in the pairing tag. none of the bottom seven pairings break 75% of otp works in their tag.
the top overlapping ships for each batslash pairing has been placed under the cut.
