I really don't like any version of "Jason learns one tiny fact about how people reacted to his death and immediately is crushed by how unfair he was being and forgives everyone!!!"

However there is one version of this I would allow due to it being very funny, not a complete waste of his character potential, and close to providing real evidence of something that would let him give Bruce a pass:

Superman realizes who the Red Hood is and why he's gunning for Batman and decides to try to straighten things out before the end of Under the Red Hood. He flies over to him and explains that he was the one stopping Bruce from killing the Joker. This gets understood as Supes being the reason Batman still can't kill him. Then Jason immediately pivots his entire life to becoming a Superman villain.

Bruce gets a phonecall: "Hi Dad, I forgive you, and I'm gonna need that 100 pounds of kryptonite back right fucking now."

I want y'all to know that this post has PLAGUED my notifs making it look like I am firmly anti-Jason pursuing higher education lmao

my favourite thing about “if he had taken you from this world, i would've done nothing but search the planet for this pathetic pile of evil death worshipping garbage and send him off to hell” is that as much as jay believes it- it’s probably not true. you know how i know

the thing about generally-accepted broad fanon batfam dynamics is that even if you disregard the complete stripping of all nuance in order to make a perfectly nuclear family with no lasting or significant conflict etc etc, half of it is all just built on vaguely (or explicitly) racist stereotypes anyway, like .......... ah yes the little half arab boy is a violent feral gremlin who can't fit in with refined polite society. the half east asian girl is the golden child who never speaks and is good at everything and has no flaws because she's the favorite who holds the family together. the romani one is a slut. LIKE. okay...!

au where the bats manage to stay urban legends, sure other heroes know of them, but they help largely from the shadows, they aren't put on display and they're hardly known at All outside of the strange circle of gotham's goons

that changes when duke thomas stares batman down and says on no uncertain terms that he's working day shift

the signal is Gotham's first confirmed superhero, and he wears a bat on his chest

social media goes Wild fighting over whether the Batman existed all along or if someone finally got the tech and powers to make the bat (or a bat) Real

suddenly the world of superheros feels a lot more real to the citizens of Gotham who got used to horrible disasters being either ignored or neatly cleaned away from the public eye, now there's a guy getting thrown through windows and helping grannies cross the street and the war between gotham and metropolis gets even more cut throat

tags via comicscraze: #the signal is their Guy and they protect him VICIOUSLY, #he's the face of the bats..... yes. I love this, #everyone outside gotham assumes the bat theme is in homage to the batman mythos of the city, #(everyone inside gotham is duking [pun intended] it out over if this confirms bats are real / if he's a real bat), #(bc there's deffo theories that bats ARE real but hilariously he's just a guy taking on their IMAGE bc he doesn't follow their 'rules'), #meanwhile duke is like. I make my own rules.

i just think its fuckin amazing if duke is the only visible face (mask?) of crime fighting in gotham

he's causing so much Disk Horse not because of who he is, nah gotham loves their signal he's great, but because the fucking boogyman might actually be real, every younger gen z-ers parents "if you aren't good the batman will come get you" just became like maybe a real person? and because someone ur age just decided being a truth finding spotlight of justice was his calling

then there is all the people that are like well obv the bat isn't real he's just wearing the bat cause of the stories, stories a young person like the signal would obv grow up hearing, it's an homage if you will

duke is of course, making it worse by making up more and more outlandish stories when people ask (see my previous rb)

duke thomas, the signal, becomes The BatTM, bruce is radiating vibes of a proud soccer mom at her pumpkin's high school graduation
